Chapter 787: Life with Snacks Is as Expectedly the Best!
When Fu Yanqing spoke about Sun Mo’s situation, he didn’t hide anything. Hence, several people soon knew about the news of Sun Mo entering the seventh part of the canyon.
By noon, the entire BattleG.o.d Town was already shaken by the commotion.
Because this piece of news was truly too explosive.
Not many people were comprehending the murals in the fifth part of the canyon, but they would still occasionally come out for a breath of fresh air and purchase supplies. Hence, everyone could see that they were alive.
However, the sixth part of the canyon was a place inaccessible to everyone. They knew some people were inside, but they had never seen anyone before.
Even those, who had stayed in the town for many years, had never seen people from the sixth part of the canyon before. And now, someone actually entered the seventh part...
It was said that the number of living people who had entered this part of the canyon could be counted on one hand. All of them were extremely old cultivators with high statuses. It was impossible for them to come here again to comprehend its true meaning.
Now, Sun Mo was only a bit over 20 years old, yet he had managed to do so. He really might have a chance to decipher the BattleG.o.d Catalog.
Hence, the postman working in the BattleG.o.d Town ran so much that he almost broke his legs.
Everyone was writing letters to inform their friends and family. Firstly, they wanted to share this surprise with others and secondly, they hoped more people would come here to take a look. Who knew? They might be able to get some benefits.
Thirdly, rumors said that if someone managed to comprehend the BattleG.o.d Catalog, the murals would all vanish.
Although no one had any idea whether this rumor was true or false, this place was still considered a famous location on the second level of the Darkness Continent. If it really disappeared before they could take one more look, things would really be too regretful.
“Would he really be able to clear the stage?”
He Wei stood at the canyon’s entrance and was at a loss. (If Sun Mo achieved that, wouldn’t my job be gone then? What should I do in the future?)
Just earlier, He Wei had hurriedly written a letter and pa.s.sed it to his a.s.sistant, telling him to send it to the Saint Gate immediately.
Right now, several people would be coming to the BattleG.o.d Town every day, and the tents erected in the surroundings were already overcrowded.
If it wasn’t for the fact that this place was not so easy to come to and the transmission of messages was not smooth, it would have been fully packed to the point where not even a drop of water could drip out.
Naturally, since there were more people, there was also more trouble.
During these few days, the swindling and robbery cases had increased immensely, and this caused He Wei to be badly burn-out. He could only use heavy-handed methods to resolve it.
Luckily, the prestige of the Saint Gate was sufficient, and ordinary people wouldn’t dare to offend such a supreme organization. Hence, the public security was still at an acceptable level.
...
Qin Yaoguang went out together with Lu Zhiruo to buy some food before returning to their camp.
“These two students, I can see that you two are bound to accomplish great things in the future just from your appearances. Hence, you shouldn’t stay in such a small place and bury your talents!
“Do you want to come to my Peachwood Academy to study? We have a 7-star great teacher teaching in our school, and there are five fixed lessons every week. I guarantee there would be enough seats. If you don’t understand something, other great teachers will also patiently guide you personally.”
A middle-aged man stopped the papaya girl and Qin Yaoguang as he smiled while introducing the school he came from.
“Which 7-star great teacher?”
Lu Zhiruo blinked her eyes.
“Gu Xian, Great Teacher Gu.”
The middle-aged man smiled and revealed his yellow teeth. “He is very famous in the alchemy world. You guys should have heard of him before, right?”
“Let’s go!”
Qin Yaoguang tugged at Lu Zhiruo’s sleeves.
“The two of you can consider a little more. This is a very rare chance. If you guys perform outstandingly enough, you might even be accepted as personal students by Great Teacher Gu.”
The middle-aged man kept chattering non-stop as he followed at the side.
Qin Yaoguang truly was annoyed now. She reb.u.t.ted, “Our teacher is Sun Mo.”
“Sun Mo? Who is that?”
The middle-aged man was clueless. This name sounded quite familiar, but where had he heard it before?
“That Great Teacher Sun, Sun Mo, who is currently comprehending the BattleG.o.d Murals in the seventh part of the canyon.”
Qin Yaoguang rolled her eyes. “Also, Great Teacher Gu recently got promoted and became one of the vice headmasters in the Black-White Academy, so why would he go and teach at your Peachwood Academy? In the future, when you want to swindle people, please be clear of your information. Peachwood Academy? I have never even heard of it. When you want to swindle people, you have to use bait to tempt them. At the very least, you have to take out a peerless-grade earth-tier cultivation art as a gift no matter what, right?”
Qin Yaoguang chewed on her candy as she scolded.
“Sun Mo?”
The middle-aged man took a deep breath of cold air and felt so embarra.s.sed that he wanted to die. He had just arrived in the BattleG.o.d Town this morning, and when he saw so many ‘innocent sheep’, he didn’t even bother to rest and started to swindle people.
However, he didn’t expect that his swindling abilities would be so weak.
“Haha, trying to swindle Sun Mo’s personal students? You are truly the only one who dared to do that.”
“There are so many people. There’s bound to be all sorts of lousy characters mixed into them.”
“These swindlers are like flies. They will fly everywhere where there is meat.”
“d.a.m.n, you simply lost face for all of us, swindlers. Can you first understand the situation before you start?”
Everyone chatted fervently.
As Sun Mo’s personal students, Qin Yaoguang and the others would often encounter people who were observing them or even trying to form good relations.h.i.+ps with them. Those people naturally hoped to get close to Sun Mo using this method so they could obtain the true meaning to clear the stages.
“Why? Do you have nothing more to say?”
Qin Yaoguang surveyed the middle-aged man. “Your clothing sense and figure cannot make it. You don’t have the correct style.”
“Alright, I’ll admit that your points are correct. After all, I’m poor and cannot afford to purchase expensive things to make myself look more presentable. But gifting a cultivation art? If I take out a low-end cultivation art, they will immediately know I’m a swindler!”
The middle-aged man’s lips twitched.
For cultivation arts of that level, one could find several of them in famous schools. Even if he wanted to give one to his target, his target might not be bothered to look through it.
“That’s why I said you are dumb!”
Qin Yaoguang couldn’t be bothered with him any longer and dragged the papaya girl away.
“Why am I dumb?”
The middle-aged man was depressed. He secretly followed them, wanting to know the reason.
“Junior sister Yaoguang, I feel that his words aren’t wrong!”
Lu Zhiruo pondered. “If you are going to swindle people, you should at least take out a saint-tier cultivation art!”
“Stupid. How many sets of saint-tier cultivation arts are there? If it was you, would you bring it with you casually?”
Qin Yaoguang was speechless and stretched out her hand to rap the papaya girl’s forehead. “Giving a cultivation art of such low level is to filter your target. Just think about it, for people who cherish peerless earth-tier cultivation arts, wouldn’t they be more easily hooked if offered with it?”
“Eh? That seems to make sense!”
Lu Zhiruo pondered and this seemed to be the case.
“There are so many fools in this world, and swindlers have more than enough targets. So, why would they have to waste time on smart people?”
Qin Yaoguang continued, “You have to understand how great the effort you have to put in if you want to swindle a smart person. Also, the chance of failure is so much greater.”
“Junior martial sister Qin, why do you know all these?”
Lu Zhiruo was curious.
“After wandering around and seeing so much, you will naturally know it!”
Qin Yaoguang saw that a roadside stall was selling sugar-coated haws. She then hurriedly bought two sticks.
“I can’t. I would surely be swindled and sold off.”
The papaya girl shook her head. This was too complex and she wouldn’t be able to learn.
“Aiya, everyone has their own strong points. There’s no need to force yourself.”
As Qin Yaoguang spoke, she held a stick of the sugar-coated haw in her left and right hands and chewed as she grinned happily.
(Life with snacks is expectedly the best!)
“Eh?”
The papaya girl was stunned. (So you bought two for yourself? I thought you wanted to give one to me.)
...
At the Central Province Academy’s campsite, other than Xuanyuan Po doing his own thing and continuing to comprehend murals, Jin Mujie forbade others from heading out.
Sun Mo’s fame was so great now, and his mind was filled with the true meanings of the murals. Because of it, someone might try to kidnap students from the Central Province Academy to threaten him.
“These people are so annoying!”
Zhang Yanzong was in a daze due to boredom. “I feel like a monkey below a bridge, and people would surround me to watch some attractions.”
Many people outside their campsite kept peering at them. After all, curiosity was the innate nature of humans.
“It has been five days. I wonder how Teacher Sun’s situation is?”
An Rou’s expression was heavy.
“Don’t worry, Teacher will surely be fine.”
The papaya girl was very composed and was filled with wors.h.i.+p and confidence in Sun Mo. “Once Teacher exits, we will be able to learn the BattleG.o.d Catalog.”
After hearing this, Zhou Yu and An Rou immediately revealed envious expressions.
Sun Mo’s generosity was very reputable in the Central Province Academy. He would casually impart peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation arts to his personal students. There was no need for them to prove their loyalty at all.
“Hehe!”
Zhang Yanzong secretly smiled. (Sorry, I’m different from you guys. Once my teacher gets together with Teacher Sun, I will also have the qualifications to learn the BattleG.o.d Catalog. But during this period, I better hint to Teacher for her to increase her speed of wooing Teacher Sun.)
...
In that bizarre room, Sun Mo sat cross-legged and stared at the pure white walls as he furrowed his brows in thought.
“Cough! Cough!”
Li Ziqi started coughing.
“How do you feel?”
Sun Mo hurriedly looked over.
“Teacher, I’m fine.”
The little sunny egg squeezed out a smile, not wanting to cause any further trouble to Sun Mo.
“Persist a little longer!”
Sun Mo took out his pocket watch and looked. The two needles completely didn’t move as though time had frozen. However, their bodily functions were still operating.
“I think about roughly five days have pa.s.sed?”
Sun Mo guessed.
He was still fine. After all, he was at the eighth level of the Divine Force Realm and could endure for several days. However, Li Ziqi was different. She could do without food, but not drinking any water caused her lips to be cracked. She was in a very dire state.
If this continued, she would thirst to death.
Sun Mo took out a dagger.
“Teacher!”
Li Ziqi cried out in shock and stretched out her hands to stop him. However, Sun Mo already sliced his wrist.
“Come, drink some blood!”
Sun Mo moved his wrist toward the little sunny egg.
“Teacher!”
The little sunny egg’s tears flowed forth like spring water. She shook her head and didn’t want to drink no matter what. If her teacher lost his blood, he would die even quicker.
Sun Mo knew the little sunny egg’s temper and didn’t forcefully persuade her. He only looked at the blood dripping onto the floor. “Look, what a waste.”
Boohoohoo!
Li Ziqi sobbed. She finally placed her mouth on his wrist, and the warm fresh blood flowed into her mouth before entering her body. The little sunny egg then folded her hands across her chest and felt that she was becoming one with her teacher.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi +10,000. Reverence (73,850/100,000).
After hearing the notification, Sun Mo smiled and used the ancient ma.s.saging technique to seal his blood vessels to prevent himself from bleeding too much. One couldn’t help but say that this was truly a divine skill.
“Daddy Battle G.o.d...Eh...Brother Battle G.o.d, why don’t I use the ancient ma.s.saging technique to trade for your BattleG.o.d Catalog?”
Sun Mo mocked himself. But there was no reply even after a long time had pa.s.sed.
Sun Mo was used to it.
After that, he used the Soul Nurturing Skill and ma.s.saged Li Ziqi. It caused her to relax and fall asleep. Sun Mo then stood up and continued to walk alongside the walls, trying to find clues that could help him clear the stage.
Honestly speaking, although he appeared at ease before the little sunny egg, he felt extremely frantic in his heart.
Such imprisonment was too tormenting.
It was extremely damaging to one’s mind and spirit.
