Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons-Chapter 1248: After the modification - 750 Disadvantageous Start_2
Chapter 1248: After the modification: Chapter 750 Disadvantageous Start_2
At this moment, a crisp crane cry echoed from the sky, accompanied by the sound of flapping wings. A flowing light descended, transforming into a youth dressed in black and white feathered robes, with red lips and white teeth.
"Greetings to both Immortal Masters."
The youth bowed courteously, completely different from his lazy and casual demeanor when in the Southern Continent.
"No need for such formality, Child."
True Master Yun Miao lightly nodded his chin and raised his hand in return.
Although the other was of the Demon Race, he was not a disciple, but rather a child under Elder Qing Guang. This was the best path for most of the Demon Race.
Furthermore, he had cultivated for many years, attaining deep boundaries that could already rival Yun Miao himself. His master was Yun Miao’s senior uncle, and his position in the sect surpassed Yun Miao’s own master significantly.
Respect the Buddha even if you don’t respect the monk.
Hence, True Master Yun Miao was not arrogant. He said softly, "Child comes to my Lingxu Cave, do you bring an Imperial Edict from Elder Qing Guang?"
Ling Su pouted, feeling slightly impatient as she thought about Tianyuan Mansion, but she dared not act out in front of her senior brother, forcing a smile on her face while secretly stomping her foot behind her.
"No, it’s not an Imperial Edict, merely a question if anyone from the Southern Continent has come to Lingxu Cave recently?" Crane Child looked toward the mountain.
"Southern Continent?"
Hearing this, Ling Su was momentarily stunned, instinctively looking at her senior brother.
"Indeed, a cultivator came by, claiming to be from the Divine Void Lineage. Does this person have a connection with Qing Guang Cave?" Yun Miao, being the senior brother of Lingxu Cave, was sharp in his reaction, not revealing too much information but rather asking back to use different responses.
"No, he has no ties with our True Master." Crane Child laughed, shaking his head. "It’s just that I am curious myself. How is he now?"
"Huh."
Realizing that the person had no relation with Elder Qing Guang, Ling Su sighed in relief and interrupted, "I kindly let him stay for two days to recuperate, but I am unsure of his current whereabouts. Probably has left... Surely, Child wouldn’t force Lingxu Cave to associate with an Insect Demon?"
She looked over, her smile not reaching her eyes.
Likely, Crane Child had visited the Southern Continent and met the cultivator, so she preemptively blocked the discussion, ensuring the other would feel embarrassed to continue.
"How could that be."
Crane Child understood Ling Su’s intent, his smile unchanged, and said lightly, "I merely chatted with Jade Pond and Shen Mountain of the Southern Continent for a few days and heard many things. It’s said that a young Heavenly Pride named Dragon Subduing Bodhisattva has emerged in Southern Sumeru."
"This person has a cruel disposition, unscrupulously killing fellow Bodhisattvas from the same sect to fight for incense. Alone, he faced six Third Grade Experts simultaneously, including two from our sect who bore magic artifacts granted by True Master."
"All the Bodhisattvas perished, and if not for a Great Demon at the extreme of Ninety-nine Changes from Southern Sumeru passing by and attracting Dragon Subduing’s attention, forcing him to pursue instead, Shen Mountain and Jade Pond would also have met their demise."
"..."
True Master Yun Miao listened quietly, a complex expression flashing in his eyes: "Thank you for informing us, Child."
North Continent only occupied one-fourth of the Divine Dynasty, and the vast congregation of Three Immortals Sect couldn’t possibly be spread across. An awkward existence like himself, failing in North Continent, would inevitably draw his gaze toward the other Three Continents.
It’s beneficial to understand the foundation of those monks beforehand.
Ling Su, however, was somewhat absent-minded, as these matters seemed unrelated to her.
Just then, Crane Child shook his head again: "Immortal Master Yun Miao misunderstood. Child has more to convey."
Under the puzzled gaze of the two.
He grew a bit serious: "According to Jade Pond, among all Immortal Venerable Bodhisattvas in the Great Nan Continent, aside from her and Shen Mountain’s accidental escape, only Taixu Pill Emperor from Shenxu Mountain survived a confrontation with Dragon Subduing."
"Moreover, Taixu Pill Emperor, like Dragon Subduing, is from the younger generation, progressing rapidly. Judging by Southern Continent’s accounts, his talent might rival that of Dragon Subduing’s, likely losing due to his lesser association with our sect, while Dragon Subduing benefits from Southern Sumeru’s foundation."
"I suspect he has come to Lingxu Cave, as he hasn’t gone to Qing Guang Cave." ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"This..."
True Master Yun Miao vaguely understood Crane Child’s meaning but didn’t rush to conclusions: "Do you mean Elder Qing Guang wishes to accept this person as a disciple, so you are sent to guide him?"
"Alas."
Crane Child couldn’t help sighing at Yun Miao’s probing.
This senior disciple of Lingxu Cave’s strength was admirable, but his skittishness and indecisiveness hampered his reputation compared to other disciples in the same boundary.
"True Master cherishes his reputation and has no intention of accepting more disciples."
He directly denied: "Child merely conveys the message, how to proceed is up to you, Immortal Master."
"..."
Before finishing, True Master Yun Miao’s expression had already darkened slightly.
Crane Child’s words appeared polite, but their meaning was clear.
This person is valuable material.
But Qing Guang Cave refuses him due to reputation concerns and hopes Lingxu Cave will accept him.
Given Elder Qing Guang’s status, he has the luxury of selective reputation; he doesn’t lack disciples. However, Lingxu Cave, being neither here nor there, should seize the opportunity with good seedlings without being choosy.
Crane Child was likely sent due to a decree issue with the Southern Continent. If left unattended, rumors would tarnish Elder Qing Guang’s name, hence Lingxu Cave should manage it.
"I understand."
True Master Yun Miao nodded and raised his hand to bid farewell.
