Chapter 24 There Are Rumors About Me?
It was a strange-looking dark-green stone that looked like a rice spoon. It looked like a stone randomly produced by nature, and its small amount of spiritual energy could barely be cla.s.sified as a spiritual item.
However, it was clearly not an ordinary item for it to be brought back by a Foundation Establishment stage spirit bird from Spirit Beasts City.
Furthermore, the reaction to Fang Jinyu"s fortune-telling technique was too strong.
However, after much hesitation, Fang Jinyu didn"t use his fortune-telling technique to "a.n.a.lyze" it. He wasn"t afraid that his luck wasn"t enough since his fortune-telling technique was reacting. It was obvious that his current luck was enough to offset it.
However, luck was extremely rare, and Fang Jinyu didn"t want to waste most of it.
Moreover, since it was the female lead, Su Yier"s future opportunity, Fang Jinyu believed he would definitely be able to find some clues to solve it after carefully considering it a few more times.
Even if he couldn"t remember, he would wait until he refined the Green Phoenix Scissors!
Fang Jinyu had been perplexed before, but after receiving the little girl"s "guidance," he soon understood why.
The book mentioned that when the Tianling Sect"s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster opened up the Lingdu Secret Realm with his ranked 7 inner energy in the Nascent Soul stage, he saw three magic treasures being nurtured. As he realized they weren"t high-tier magic treasures, he left them in the Lingdu Secret Realm as an opportunity for the disciples.
However, the Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster misjudged the magic treasure and didn"t even realize that there was a "split soul" of a mysterious existence hidden in the Lingdu Secret Realm!
The book didn"t mention the origin of the "split soul," but it did mention that Su Yier encountered the "split soul" as soon as she entered the Lingdu Secret Realm. Afterward, the "split soul" guided Su Yier to find the second magic weapon, the Green Phoenix Scissors, after getting her first magic weapon.
It was the first time the "split soul" appeared in the book.
"Is it that thing?" Fang Jinyu"s eyes flickered. After some thought, he concluded that it could only be the mysterious "split soul."
"Since it is some kind of sorcery, even if it is extremely powerful, there"s still a distance limit. I"ll just have to wait for another two months."
Fang Jinyu recalled the contents of the book and calmed down.
It was because two months later, Su Yier"s master found out about her relationship with her "Senior Brother Qin." After that, Su Yier"s master would fly into a rage out of humiliation and expel Su Yier from the sect.
Of course, Su Yier"s master wouldn"t expel her. He was simply enraged and would take the initiative to get Su Yier back.
After that, it naturally became the cliché but well-liked plot "Torturing your loved ones for a moment of pleasure will turn into sweat and tears to get her back."
They loved each other and tortured each other along the way. Finally, they returned to the Tianling Sect together three years later.
Su Yier met several excellent male cultivators in the immortal world in the past three years. Among them were those who were gentle and elegant, those who came from aristocratic families, those who were handsome and roguish, and those who were calm and steady, loyal men…
Although Su Yier had many admirers, the gloomy, paranoid, and lovesick sword cultivator still held a special place in her heart.
After all, Su Yier"s master was handsome, rich, and had a high cultivation base. He was also born into an aristocratic cultivation family.
Even "Senior Brother Qin," who had taken Su Yier"s virginity, was still inferior to the lovesick sword cultivator. Su Yier even mentioned it directly, "Although he took my virginity, the first time in my heart will always be for you…."
Fang Jinyu quickly interrupted his thoughts.
He was afraid that he would be possessed.
With that, Fang Jinyu returned to the peak of Mount Lingyao named "Li" in a good mood. However, his mood immediately turned bad after he returned.
It was because Du Maner told him that there was a rumor about him spreading like wildfire.
"Someone said I s.n.a.t.c.hed someone else"s chance to enter the Lingdu Secret Realm?"
"Is the person who said it brainless?"
Fang Jinyu looked as if he had just seen a ghost. He thought, "What kind of ridiculous slander is it?"
Afterward, Fang Jinyu couldn"t help but glance at Du Maner. Since he hadn"t seen her for a while, she had just broken through rank 2 in the Qi Condensation stage in their last meeting, but now, her cultivation base had broken through rank 4 in the Qi Condensation stage!
Was it one of the perks of being the main character?
Was she going to welcome a good life after breaking the original bitter fate of life and death? Was she going to reach the prime of her life?
The situation made Fang Jinyu determined to stay as far away from Su Yier as possible!
Fang Jinyu thought, "If Du Maner can have such a perk, how about Su Yier? The book mentioned that she would be on the verge of breaking her core and forming her Nascent Soul in a dozen years. She will be powerful when her cultivation base soars. She is almost invincible among those of the same cultivation base."
"Martial Uncle, what"s going on?" Du Maner was also interested because cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage couldn"t access the Lingdu Secret Realm. The rule was never explicitly established by the Tianling Sect, but it was always implicitly accepted.
Fang Jinyu explained the situation.
After all, he was the main character of the rumor.
"Martial Uncle, you even met the Grandmaster?" Du Maner couldn"t resist casting an envious glance. For a cultivator in the Qi Condensation stage, she would feel honored to meet a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!
Afterward, Du Maner growled, "I wonder which b.a.s.t.a.r.d spread the rumors! He is acting inappropriately! Yet, many people believed it."
Since Du Maner was close to Fang Jinyu, she naturally chose to believe him.
"The matter is infuriating, but it is also very boring." Fang Jinyu shook his head. He was too lazy to dwell on the matter. After all, it was meaningless. He felt that he had better try and comprehend the prescription of the Core Spirit Elixir by today.
"However, although I don"t know who spread it, someone has s.n.a.t.c.hed someone else"s chance to enter the Lingdu Secret Realm." Fang Jinyu looked at Du Maner thoughtfully and decided to tattletale in front of the new female lead.
"No wonder..." Du Maner suddenly understood the situation, but she didn"t continue asking.
Du Maner was only a Qi Condensation stage cultivator. She knew what to say and what not to say. Even in front of Fang Jinyu, she was used to being cautious and wouldn"t act rashly.
However, even if she didn"t ask, someone else did.
A heartless little girl curiously leaned her little head over and asked, "Who is it? You should know, right?"
Fang Jinyu pretended to hesitate when he saw the little girl asking the question. When the little girl urged him again, he said, "Fine, there"s no harm in telling you about it. Do you know about Mount Lingjian?"
"Is it the mountain where the best sword cultivator in the sect lives?" Du Maner asked. Since the Tianling Sect only had one Core Formation stage sword cultivator, Su Yier"s master was quite famous.
"Yes, you"re correct." Fang Jinyu nodded. "As far as I know, Mount Lingjian doesn"t have any disciples who were able to enter the Lingdu Secret Realm this year. It was because the sword cultivator Martial Uncle suddenly accepted a disciple, and the chances had been set long ago, and Mount Lingjian wasn"t included in the list. However, I saw the disciples of Mount Lingjian at that time."
Fang Jinyu didn"t elaborate further, but he made himself clear.
Afterward, Fang Jinyu started to study the prescription of the Core Spirit Elixir.
Fang Jinyu had thought that the rumors about him would soon die down. After all, he was just cannon fodder. However, just four hours later, the rumor spread like wildfire and even forced him to leave his study of the prescription of the Core Spirit Elixir.
