Chapter 670: News of the Gold-Dissipating Cavern at Sea

Everyone returned to the hall, but Scarlet Point still seemed incredulous, his expression dazed.

"Are you really going to teach me the Thirteen Deadly Sword Techniques?" Scarlet Point asked.

"In this world today, you are the only one truly suited for this sword art," Jin Banhua chuckled, then added after a moment's thought, "Once you master it, you can go challenge Chu Liuxiang and avenge the time he knocked you out at Daming Lake."

Scarlet Point, "……"

"Chu Liuxiang stealing your jade beauty was probably the biggest mistake of his life," Scarlet Point sighed.

Jin Banhua snorted, "Too bad he realizes it too late!"

On the other side, Qu Wurong had already learned of Hua Zhenzhen's true identity.

"Although Brother Jin is rather unpredictable, he never lies. If he says the Thirteen Gentle Breezes he learned are unrelated to Huashan, then it must be true," Qu Wurong said.

Hua Zhenzhen gave Jin Banhua a deep look and whispered, "I know, because he has no reason to lie."

"Since Miss Hua has understood, that's for the best," Qu Wurong sighed in relief.

Hua Zhenzhen bit her lower lip.

When she returned to Huashan and revealed her identity, she soon learned that the Thirteen Gentle Breezes had been stolen. She immediately went down the mountain to find the person who could wield the sword, only to discover a clue about the Gold-Dissipating Cavern at Sea.

She was about to follow that lead but unexpectedly learned that Jin Banhua also knew the Thirteen Gentle Breezes, so she changed course and came to the capital to investigate.

She never expected to find the Fourteenth Gentle Breeze!

Now she was torn between continuing to pursue the clue about the Gold-Dissipating Cavern at Sea or staying with Jin Banhua to learn the Fourteenth Gentle Breeze as soon as possible.

The theft of the sect's secret manual was indeed a serious matter, but Jin Banhua had also said that to bring this sword technique back to Huashan, she would have to behave properly and serve him as a maid.

While Hua Zhenzhen was still deliberating, she heard Jin Banhua ask, "By the way, have you heard any news about the Gold-Dissipating Cavern at Sea recently?"

Hua Zhenzhen gave Jin Banhua a surprised look.

"The Gold-Dissipating Cavern, where nothing is unobtainable?" Qu Wurong asked.

Hua Zhenzhen's eyes flashed, and she immediately asked, "Do you know about it?"

"Flower Without Scent mentioned it once after he went to the Great Desert," Qu Wurong said. "He heard about it and wanted to buy a bottle of Divine Water, but after some investigation, he found out they didn't have it."

Qu Wurong shook her head, "So Flower Without Scent laughed at the Cavern's grand claims, but their abilities were rather limited."

Hua Zhenzhen's face darkened, "But the Cavern does have the Thirteen Gentle Breezes for sale."

Qu Wurong was taken aback and hastily apologized.

Hua Zhenzhen quickly supported Qu Wurong and shook her head, "It's not Miss Qu's fault. It must be a traitor within the Huashan Sect."

Qu Wurong asked, "The Thirteen Gentle Breezes of Huashan are a closely guarded secret, passed down only to the direct disciples. How could it be so easily leaked and used for profit?"

Neither of them mentioned Jin Banhua, because just looking at his talent, it was clear that this was not a simple leak.

Hua Zhenzhen sighed, "That's what confuses me. After the incident, I questioned all the Huashan disciples who knew the Thirteen Gentle Breezes. They all swore to the heavens that they never leaked the sword technique."

"Then it must be someone with ill intentions who infiltrated Huashan?" Qu Wurong asked.

"But the secret manual was kept in the bedroom of the Abbot Withered Plum," Hua Zhenzhen said.

Qu Wurong fell silent.

Huashan's internal affairs were not something she should comment on.

"I've heard of that den of debauchery as well," Red Dot suddenly said.

Jin Banhua was surprised. "Unflower is a high monk from Shaolin, so it's not surprising he would know about the den. But you, a killer who keeps to yourself, how did you come to know about it?"

"Because my master once received an invitation," Red Dot explained. "The invitation said that if he was willing to go to the island, he could purchase a sword technique powerful enough to defeat Xue Yiren."

Qu Wu Rong was startled. "The Thirteen Breezes of Clear Wind?"

"The invitation didn't specify, but I assume it was," Red Dot said gravely. "There aren't many sword techniques in the world that can defeat Xue Yiren."

Hua Zhenzhen clenched her teeth. "How many copies of the Thirteen Breezes of Clear Wind does this mastermind intend to sell?"

Jin Banhua asked, "But your master didn't go?"

"He didn't," Red Dot replied. "He said that Xue Yiren's sword technique is nothing more than embroidery, and he could defeat Xue Yiren without learning another sword technique."

Jin Banhua blinked. "So you believed him?"

Red Dot was silent for a moment. "..."

"From what we saw at the Divine Water Palace, he probably isn't a match for Xue Yiren," Jin Banhua said. "But calling Xue Yiren's technique 'embroidery' suggests that he and Xue Yiren have some kind of grudge, which is why he deliberately belittles him in his words."

Qu Wu Rong asked, "If they have a grudge, why didn't he buy the Thirteen Breezes of Clear Wind?"

"Even the most powerful sword technique needs a skilled wielder. If a single technique could defeat Xue Yiren, he wouldn't be known as the First Sword under Heaven," Jin Banhua laughed.

"Your master certainly understands this, and more importantly..." Jin Banhua mused, "Perhaps his obsession is to defeat Xue Yiren on his own, not by relying on a sword technique."

Red Dot couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is the relationship between them?"

"If you don't know, how would I?" Jin Banhua waved her hand. "Have you heard any news about the Xue family in Jiangnan or Xue Yiren while traveling through the world?"

"No," Red Dot and Qu Wu Rong shook their heads in unison.

"Xue Yiren hasn't made a move in a long time," Red Dot added. "There's been no news of him in the martial world for years."

Qu Wu Rong said, "That's why Red Dot believed his master."

"Alright..." Jin Banhua nodded. "So, to go to that den of debauchery on the sea, one has to receive an invitation first?"

"Exactly," Red Dot confirmed. "The invitation states that if you wish to go, you must arrive at the river mouth at the specified time, and one of their people will guide you."

Qu Wu Rong continued, "The sea is vast. Without their guidance or a map, no one in the world could find the den of debauchery."

"Boasting!" Jin Banhua snorted. "While the Thirteen Breezes of Clear Wind were only recently stolen, this den of debauchery clearly isn't a recent phenomenon."

"Over the years, many people must have returned from there. How could no one know where it is?" Jin Banhua shook her head. "At the very least, the gangs that live along the river or the sea must know about it."

Hua Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, clearly thinking of a few names.

Jin Banhua clicked her tongue. "This den of debauchery is located off the coast of Jiangnan, Red Dot's master has ties to the Xue family in Jiangnan, and Chu Liuxiang might be in Jiangnan right now..."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Jin Banhua clapped her hands and laughed. "Let's go!"
