Chapter 616: The Crazy Master's Forced Love?
Chapter 616: The Crazy Master's Forced Love?
In the mountains, the verdant grass sprouted new shoots, and the air still held a hint of post-rain moisture, yet the lawn had already dried. The sun shone with an orange-yellow hue, casting a warm glow.
A young man held a blade of grass between his teeth, his hand shielding his eyes from the sun.
"In the Cloud Dream Palace, the Swordsman Disciple and the Palace Mistress engaged in a fierce battle, causing the very mountains and rivers to shatter."
"That night, the snow fell heavily, and the rules of the Grand Dao crumbled."
"In terms of strength, the Swordsman Disciple was naturally no match for the Palace Mistress."
"After all, when a master teaches a disciple, they always hold something back."
"Master, will you hold back against me?" asked the little girl, tilting her head, her small hands gently pounding the young man's shoulders.
"Am I the kind of person who would do that? And... what's the point of holding back?"
"In the end, the Swordsman Disciple unleashed his small universe, and with a single sword strike, he slew the Palace Mistress, thus ensuring the survival of the Zhou Mountain Grand Realm."
"However, this sword strike also exhausted the Swordsman Disciple's energy, and both he and his master perished."
"So tragic! Master, where are they buried? I want to sweep their graves!" The little girl's eyes sparkled with anticipation.
"Tsk, you just want to find their burial goods, don't you!" The young man was blunt.
The little girl wasn't offended; she merely smiled with narrowed eyes, like a crescent moon.
The young man continued, "But who would've thought that with each battle, the Swordsman Disciple grew stronger. His sword reached a state of selflessness, and in the end, he even transformed into an ultimate sword, slaying the Palace Mistress."
"From that point on, the evil tyrant was defeated, and peace reigned across the land. All praised the victory."
Hearing this, the little girl's eyes flashed with greed. "Didn't the Swordsman Disciple become a divine sword?"
"Who knows?" The young man's expression was one of lazy indifference.
"Master, do you think we can still find the Swordsman Disciple's grave if we go looking now?" the little girl asked.
She had always wanted a sword of her own to roam the world with.
After all, wearing a crimson robe and wielding a sword was the epitome of coolness.
Not hearing a response from her master, she exerted a bit more strength and realized he had fallen asleep.
"No way, I need to check the map and find out where the Zhou Mountain Realm is!"
It was clear that the little girl had taken her master's story to heart.
She didn't care about the grudges between the Swordsman Disciple and the Palace Mistress; she was more interested in the burial goods and treasures.
But... about a quarter of an hour later...
A deafening shout echoed.
"Master! You liar!"
The young man quickly covered his ears, feeling dizzy.
"What did I lie to you about?"
"I checked the records, and your story is completely made up."
"First, your story has no basis. For example, you said that the Cloud Dream Palace devoured the Zhou Mountain Realm, and even the Nine Heavens Divine Gate avoided it. This shows that the Palace Mistress's strength was unparalleled. How could the Swordsman Disciple, who hasn't even passed through the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations, be her match?"
"Second, you mentioned in the story that the Palace Mistress died in the 700 billionth year of the founding of the Wind Thunder Divine Path. You also said that the Wind Thunder Divine Path held a ceremony on Forget Zhou Mountain 500 billion years after its founding.
But now, the Wind Thunder Divine Path has only been established for less than a billion years, and Forget Zhou Mountain has long collapsed! Are you saying that 500 billion years later, the Wind Thunder Divine Path will rebuild Forget Zhou Mountain?"
"So, Master, this is a made-up, melodramatic story."
"Isn't it possible that I'm not wrong, but the world is?" Bai Xiaosheng retorted. "It's this world's spacetime that's chaotic, this world that's full of flaws."
He felt like he was born in the wrong era.
"You're called Bai Xiaosheng, yet you don't know the truth of the world?"
The little girl chattered, and the young man felt the air around him was filled with noise.
"Cough, Wu Shi, how could your master deceive you?"
"If you're not deceiving me, Master, help me find the Swordsman Disciple's grave. I want the sword he transformed into."
"Hey, you're the one who said he might have turned into a sword!"
"If the master can make things up, can't the disciple do the same?" The little girl looked up, beaming with pride.
"You... go and cultivate. At your age, you should focus on improving your cultivation." The young man, feeling he couldn't win against his disciple, resorted to asserting his authority as a master.
"Why don't you cultivate, Master?" The little girl grumbled when cultivation was mentioned.
"I, as a divine treasure with an innate spirit, was born with spiritual awareness and don't need to cultivate." The young man boasted.
[In this life, you were born as a divine coin, revered as the Ancestor by the sentient beings of the Tu Wu Grand Realm.]
This Bai Xiaosheng was born with an innate divine treasure spirit, making him the second life of Qi Yuan's San Qing Law.
At the same time, this Tu Wu Grand Realm, once insignificant, had its sentient beings living a primitive life, with weak civilization, let alone transcendence.
However, when Qi Yuan broke through his boundaries and gained supernatural powers, he once had the ability to 'make words into laws,' introducing the concept of 'coin' to the Tu Wu Grand Realm, thus opening the path to civilization.
In this lifetime, he was born with a divine treasure that was spiritually aware, and was revered as the Founder by the Tu Wu Grand Realm.
...
"Master, spit out some money!"
Bai Xiaosheng, in a daze, felt a small hand patting his back.
He opened his mouth involuntarily.
A pile of golden coins spilled out with a clatter.
Hmm, Old Deng was vomiting gold coins.
The little girl, Wu Shi, saw the money and smiled with narrowed eyes, feeling very happy.
Bai Xiaosheng opened his eyes and looked at Wu Shi helplessly, "What, have they started growing yellow hair on your head?"
"Tsk, Master, you're so unreliable. I need to save up some private money." Wu Shi said.
She held the pile of golden coins, feeling a sense of security.
Bai Xiaosheng watched this scene and smiled.
Wu Shi's childhood could be described as miserable.
She was an orphan in the midst of war, abandoned and left alone on a snowy mountain in the middle of the ice-cold wilderness.
Her clothing was thin, and her bare feet were frozen stiff.
When Bai Xiaosheng first saw her, she was so thin that she looked like a bag of bones.
Fortunately, she had a powerful bloodline, or else she would have frozen or starved to death.
However, even so, Wu Shi still had a difficult life and was left with many health issues.
That's why she now likes to hide private money and food.
It was all Bai Xiaosheng's doing.
"In the future, don't make me vomit coins while I'm sleeping," Bai Xiaosheng said.
Suddenly, he seemed to sense something, and his expression changed slightly.
"Quick, hide!"
A series of spells descended, and Wu Shi's figure disappeared.
Just then, ripples formed in the grand rhythm of the Dao.
Time seemed to freeze.
A figure without a fixed shape, existing in an unknown space-time, descended as a Daoist God.
Bai Xiaosheng narrowed his eyes, "The Divine Origin of the Nine Heavens Divine Gate has come, please forgive me for not receiving you properly."
"As expected of Bai Xiaosheng, even when I hide my tracks, you can still deduce my identity."
"Since you've seen through me, I won't hide it anymore."
"The Nine Heavens Divine Gate needs the Falling Wind Ravine, the Divine Coin Valley... Tomorrow Snow... their specific locations and information."
"The Falling Wind Ravine... isn't it within the Nine Heavens Divine Gate?" Bai Xiaosheng asked with a smile.
"Indeed," the Divine Origin God replied, surprised.
These seven locations, including the Falling Wind Ravine, were occupied by the Nine Heavens Divine Gate.
This matter was highly confidential.
Unexpectedly, Bai Xiaosheng was still aware of it, seems like he has some skills.
"These seven places, six of them... are all Yin Plane nodes, and the last one, Tomorrow Snow... seems not to be a node, how is its position determined?" Bai Xiaosheng asked with a puzzled expression.
The Nine Heavens Divine Gate had been searching for these special places.
These special places were all nodes.
Hearing this, the Divine Origin God looked at Bai Xiaosheng with newfound respect.
As expected, he is knowledgeable.
"The other six are all nodes... Tomorrow Snow is a strange snow mountain."
Strange though it may be, it's not important.
"We are looking for a special sentient being on Tomorrow Snow."
"Bai Xiaosheng, I'll give you an era's time to help us find these places. As for the reward... one location, one Divine Artifact Essence."
For a Daoist God, this is how they enhance their strength, aside from enduring the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations, and consuming Divine Artifact Essence.
Divine Artifact Essence is a precious by-product of Divine Artifacts, possessing a unique Dao Principle.
"By the way, after finding Tomorrow Snow, don't go there on your own, or else... even if you're a Daoist God, there's still a risk of death." The Divine Origin God reminded.
"Oh, the sentient being on Tomorrow Snow is special... powerful?" Bai Xiaosheng asked curiously.
The Divine Origin God's expression turned wary, "It is related to a fallen Dao Lord."
"The Universal Alliance?"
"No, it's a Dao Lord from the Rebirth Plane."
In a 6, 9, 1, 8, look, there's no mistake in this version!
"Wait, isn't the Rebirth Plane only accessible to Divine Artifacts that have reached the Daoist God realm?"
"Because, it has the Ten Great Original Bodies."
"The Ten Great Original Bodies..." Bai Xiaosheng fell silent.
There are rumors that obtaining one of the Ten Great Original Bodies can allow one to break through the Daoist God realm.
Of course, it doesn't guarantee success.
"If you find out about Tomorrow Snow, report it immediately to the Nine Heavens Divine Gate. At that time, the Heavenly Deity will descend," the Divine Origin God said.
Bai Xiaosheng took a deep breath, "So it's the legendary Heavenly Deity."
The Divine Origin God's arrival and departure were both sudden.
In the bamboo hut, only Bai Xiaosheng and Wu Shi remained.
As the concealment faded, Wu Shi appeared, blinking her big eyes and holding tightly onto Bai Xiaosheng's wide sleeve, "Master, why are you frowning?"
Sometimes, Wu Shi was still obedient and understanding.
"Sigh, I just feel that I chose the wrong name, Bai Xiaosheng is an unlucky name."
In this world, those who bear the name Bai Xiaosheng never have a good ending.
Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but sigh.
He recalled seven years ago, when he brought Wu Shi back from that snowy mountain...
That mountain was Tomorrow Snow.
This also meant that his disciple's identity...
If he had met the Divine Origin Daoist God a few years earlier and hadn't seen Wu Shi, he might have exchanged the news of Tomorrow Snow for ten thousand Divine Artifacts.
But now, little Wu Shi had become his disciple.
He was a good person at heart.
He wouldn't do something against his principles.
Even if it meant offending that Heavenly Deity.
Wait...
Bai Xiaosheng smiled again.
Would he have offended the Heavenly Deity even without Wu Shi?
On the surface, he was the mysterious Daoist God, Bai Xiaosheng.
But in reality, he was also the founder of the Grand Universe, a partner of the Universal Alliance.
The Anti-Nine Heavens Divine Gate Alliance... One of the founders of the alliance.
Why oppose them?
The Divine Coin Valley was located in the Grand Universe, Bai Xiaosheng's birthplace.
If he were to reveal this anchor point to the Nine Heavens Divine Gate...
Then, the Grand Universe would likely become a 'cultivation ground' for the Nine Heavens Divine Gate, and his Divine Coin with a spirit would also face destruction.
"Tsk tsk, don't speak such unlucky words, Master," Wu Shi said, her face tense.
Bai Xiaosheng chuckled and stretched lazily, "Then don't tell me."
Wu Shi continued to chatter, seemingly concerned about the gold coins Bai Xiaosheng had spat out.
"Hmm." Bai Xiaosheng didn't bother to pursue it.
Everyone had their secrets.
His disciple was suspected to be the 'reincarnation' of the Divine Master, which was quite normal.
As for his injuries, they were naturally from a confrontation with the Daoist God of the Nine Heavens Divine Gate.
After all, he was part of the Anti-Nine Heavens Divine Gate Alliance.
"Right, I'll be going to the Universal Alliance for a while. During this time, stay here and don't go anywhere else," he instructed.
Bai Xiaosheng thought for a moment and gave orders.
"Master, you won't even introduce me to your Daoist God friends?" Wu Shi pouted, seeming unhappy. "Even the daughter-in-law has to meet the mother-in-law!"
Seeing that Bai Xiaosheng wasn't speaking, Wu Shi pressed on, "Could it be that... crazy bastard god?"
"Tsk!"
"Hehe, usually, masters in such plots are very cold and aloof.
Master, you're so lazy and lack the elegance of a noble gentleman. You're always grinning foolishly and spitting out gold coins. You don't look like the male lead at all."
Bai Xiaosheng became angry.
What's wrong with being cheerful? He's a sunny and open-minded boy.
He decided to smile every day.
"Master, be careful when you go to the Universal Alliance. Don't get injured again," Wu Shi said, concerned.
