Chapter 119: Return
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the sky above the majestic mountain range, the sword-shaped flying s.h.i.+p slowly landed on the vast gra.s.sland. The man with sharp eyebrows in a green pine robe, Wu Shan, stood with his hands behind his back. He looked at the scenery with a calm expression.
“Lord Wu Shan. The duration for the special-cla.s.s guest elder a.s.sessment this time is quite fast. I wonder if the qualification candidate from the Fire Toad Cave of the Southern Flame Continent, a small place in the Northern Rock Marsh Region, has pa.s.sed.”
“How can it be so easy to become a special-cla.s.s guest elder?”
“It’s good to see the world.”
The two Foundation Establishment female cultivators discussed.
Wu Shan smiled faintly. He still remembered the cautiousness and respect of the candidate. Unfortunately, he was only a Qi Refinement cultivator after all.
It had been many years since a special-cla.s.s guest elder had appeared in a place like the Northern Rock Marsh Region.
“They’re here.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the vast gra.s.sland rippled like water. Soon, three figures walked out of thin air. One of them was the cultivator they had previously brought over from the Wei Kingdom. At this moment, he had already successfully established his foundation.
However, the smile on Wu Shan’s face disappeared. He stared at the female cultivator beside Shen Ping. His heart was in turmoil. The female cultivator’s left shoulder was engraved with a red mountain fire badge.
It represented the status of a faction. Mountain Fire Hall.
As for the True Treasure Pavilion, it had a hall, a pavilion, and a boat. Although there were strong and weak at every level, those who could be called halls were all top-notch.
“How is that possible! Even if he pa.s.ses through as a special-cla.s.s guest elder and have a Dao Protector accompanying him, it would at most be at the pavilion level!”
Wu Shan was stunned. He was a Nascent Soul cultivator. However, it was only at the level of a boat-level faction.
Boom.
The female cultivator in light armor had already brought Shen Ping to the flying s.h.i.+p.
“I’m Wu Shan. Greetings, Guest Elder Shen!” Wu Shan quickly came back to his senses and bowed.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, a Nascent Soul cultivator like him only needed to be polite to the core members. There was no need to bow at all. However, the core of a hall-level Dao Protector could not be underestimated.
“Hurry up and arrange a quiet room. Don’t disturb us.” The female cultivator in light armor said indifferently. She did not take the Nascent Soul cultivator seriously at all.
However, Wu Shan did not feel that it was inappropriate at all. Even though the Golden Core Realm cultivator in front of him might not be his match in a real battle, it was unimaginable how she could become a member of the hall.
Perhaps she had a treasure given to him by a Nascent Soul cultivator or even a Divine Transformation Realm expert. Anything was possible in the True Treasure Pavilion.
“I wonder if I can arrange two rooms or one?” Wu Shan asked.
“One.”
“Okay!” He personally brought Shen Ping and the female cultivator in light armor to the quiet room in the flying s.h.i.+p. Not far away, two Foundation Establishment female cultivators stood respectfully. They held their breaths.
It was until Wu Shan came out of the pavilion did they heave a sigh of relief.
“Lord Wu Shan. A-a special-cla.s.s guest elder?!” The two Foundation Establishment female cultivators were in disbelief.
Wu Shan ignored them and waved his hand to start the flying s.h.i.+p. Then, he walked to the railing and looked down at the majestic mountain range that was getting further and further away. He was silent for a long time before sighing. “A special-cla.s.s guest elder… I still missed it in the end!”
There were some opportunities. It was once difficult to grasp. Once he missed it, there would always be regrets.
In the quiet room, Shen Ping sat cross-legged on the mat uncomfortably. He didn’t even dare to look around from the corner of his eye. This Dao Protector’s aura was really too valiant. He did not take a closer look at her appearance. But the slender outline of her body covered in light armor still lingered in his sea of consciousness.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, don’t be nervous. After choosing a Dao Protector in the True Treasure Pavilion, I won’t leave until you reach the Pseudo Nascent Soul Realm. This will take a long time. During this period of time, no matter what you do, I will not ask. Only when you’re in danger will I protect you.” The female cultivator in light armor walked over with crisp footsteps.
Sitting cross-legged in front of Shen Ping, she said again, “In the next 15 days, it’s best if you and I get to know each other as soon as possible. When we reach the Wei Kingdom, I won’t communicate easily anymore.”
Shen Ping’s gaze could not help but land on the semicircle armor. He seemed to see a network of white tendons intertwining and spreading to the armor. For some reason, he thought of pears at this moment.
As his gaze landed, he noticed that this light armor was indeed bright, especially where the lines gathered. It actually stuck to her tightly without any hard texture.
“What is this material made of… I wonder if it will leave a strangulation mark.” This thought appeared in his mind. The discomfort on Shen Ping’s body immediately dissipated. He raised his eyes and smiled calmly. “How should I address you, senior?”
“My Daoist name is Huoyu! You can call me Daoist Huoyu in the future. When you break through to the Golden Core Realm, you can call me Pei Huoyu.” The female cultivator in light armor did not care about Shen Ping’s wanton gaze just now. Her light armor was already eye-catching.
“Senior Huoyu, in the future, I’ll leave my life and death to you, Senior!” Shen Ping stood up and bowed respectfully.
Pei Huoyu also stood up and said with a smile, “That’s right. Fellow Daoist Shen is much calmer than I expected. This time, you’ve become a core member of the True Treasure Pavilion. Your status is destined to be different from before. Other than the visible dangers you’re about to face, there are also those invisible dangers.
“The core is just the beginning. You’re only at the second level of Foundation Establishment now. You still have a long way to go in the future. As your Dao Protector, I hope that you can go further and not stop here on the path of cultivation.”
Shen Ping could hear the sincerity in Daoist Huoyu’s words. He said respectfully again, “Thank you for your reminder, Senior. I will definitely remember it.”
In the following days, although the two of them did not communicate much in the quiet room, they became more familiar with each other. At least Shen Ping no longer only remembered Pei Huoyu’s curves.
Buzz-
A few days later, the flying s.h.i.+p trembled violently.
Pei Huoyu looked at Shen Ping. “The Southern Flame Continent is a relatively remote cultivation continent among the five continents and four seas. From the place of the a.s.sessment to the Northern Rock Marsh Region where you are, you need to undergo three long-distance teleportations. Every teleportation consumes a huge amount of energy.
“Only Golden Core elders at the base can ride such a flying s.h.i.+p. Other than that, there will be cultivators in charge of transporting the special-cla.s.s guest elders and first-grade guest elders. You’re a core member. If you want to ride in the future, you can apply directly.”
Shen Ping could hear the hint of envy in Daoist Huoyu’s voice and could not help but say, “Senior Pei, with your strength, you should be able to ride it, right?”
Pei Huoyu said calmly, “Sure, but I have to wait for time. Wait for someone.”
Two more violent b.u.mps and tremors, and the sword-shaped flying s.h.i.+p finally arrived at the territory of the Northern Rock Marsh Region.
At the base of the Wei Kingdom’s True Treasure Pavilion in Qingyang City, the Golden Core elder received the message. “The special-cla.s.s guest elder, Shen Ping, is about to return. Hurry up and welcome him.”
The Golden Core elder trembled. He listened to the message repeatedly until he confirmed that he had not heard wrongly. Unimaginable surprise surged in his eyes.
He pa.s.sed…
A special-cla.s.s guest elder.
After so many years, a special-cla.s.s guest elder had finally appeared in this area of the 12 countries’ Wei Kingdom! As the elder in charge of the base, every time he applied for some resources, he had to bow and sc.r.a.pe.
There are seven regions in the cave. After the other domains distributed the resources, it was the Northern Rock Marsh Region’s turn. Only then could they reach the 12 countries.
Finally, the clouds parted and the moon shone!
A special-cla.s.s guest elder was born. In the future, the resources in the continent would definitely lean towards this side. Moreover, the number of first-grade guest elders who went to the headquarters would also increase.
Thinking of this, the Golden Core elder smiled. As he smiled, messages were sent. “People of the base of the True Treasure Pavilion, be it deacons, auction hosts, first-cla.s.s, second-cla.s.s, and third-cla.s.s guest elders, quickly wait in the backyard!”
Several hours later, all the members of the backyard of the True Treasure Pavilion had arrived.
“Senior Xia. What is the elder’s message about?” A guest elder asked in confusion.
There were very few Golden Core elders in the True Treasure Pavilion who would inform and send messages. Such a situation was usually related to Nascent Souls. Only the few times when something happened in the Cloud Mountain Swamp, it was more frequent.
Deacon Xia shook his head gently. However, he thought of Shen Ping, who went to take the special-cla.s.s guest elder a.s.sessment. Even though he knew that it was extremely difficult to pa.s.s, there was still a trace of unrealistic hope. “It’s been less than half a year.. If it’s really Guest Elder Shen, then…”
