Chapter 321: Tricks (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The deacons of the Merit Hall actually didnât have high cultivation levels.
Because they had to deal with various exchange matters and entertain disciples, there were many daily matters. Therefore, cultivators with profound cultivation levels werenât interested in this job.
Those who could come here to manage things were usually cultivators who no longer had high hopes of advancing in the path of cultivation.
The middle-aged cultivator was an example.
Facing ordinary inner sect disciples, he was high and mighty. There was no need for him to show any respect to those people.
However, not only was Xia Mengran a cultivator whose cultivation level far exceeded his, but she also had a bright future. With her connection with Master Yu, she was far from someone a mere deacon could afford to offend. Therefore, the middle-aged man didnât dare to be negligent at all.
Xia Mengran waved her hand impatiently and said, âStop being so polite. This is my masterâs new disciple. I brought him here to choose a cultivation Cave Abode. Hurry up and take out the map!â
The middle-aged man was clearly very familiar with Xia Mengranâs personality. He didnât mind her attitude and hurriedly called for someone to bring the map over.
Not long after, a teenager on duty brought the map over.
Without waiting for the teenager to hand over the map, Xia Mengran snatched it over and unfolded it.
A moment later, she frowned and said unhappily, âWhatâs going on? Why are there only four Essence Prefecture Cave Abodes, and theyâre the ones with the worst geographical locations?â
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and cupped his hands. âHall Master Xia, the Essence Prefecture-level Cave Abodes has always been in short supply. No matter how bad the geographical location is, many people are fighting for it. Four is already a lot.â
Xia Mengran didnât buy it at all and sneered.
âYou can use these words to fool ordinary disciples, but youâre still far from fooling me!
âChu Jihe, thatâs all I have to say. Donât play any tricks on me. Hurry up and take out all the really good Cave Abodes. Otherwise, donât blame me for tearing down your pavilion!â
Chu Jiheâs face was almost scrunched up as he looked at Lin Shen for help.
Lin Shen looked down and pretended not to see anything.
Seeing that he really couldnât fool her, Chu Jihe could only grit his teeth and take out a roll of parchment from his sleeve and handed it to Xia Mengran.
Xia Mengran took a look at it, and her expression finally eased a little. She then handed the parchment to Lin Shen.
âJunior Brother, take a look. Although Goldstream Isle is located in a remote area, itâs a wonderful place to cultivate. The water and metal spiritual essence on the island are abundant, and itâs suitable for cultivating the two elements. Itâs almost as good as the cave abodes where the elders cultivate.â
At this point, Xia Mengran glanced sideways at Chu Jihe and snorted.
âAt least you know whatâs good for you and donât use that trash to fool us!â
Chu Jihe smiled bitterly.
Even if an Essence Prefecture-level Cave Abode had a bad location and a little less spiritual opportunity, it shouldnât be called trash, right?
If it was an ordinary cultivator master, they would wake up laughing in their dreams if they could obtain such a Cave Abode.
Indeed, Goldstream Isle was a good Blessed Land for cultivation.
Among all the Essence Prefecture-level Cave Abodes, Goldstream Isleâs spiritual opportunity was definitely in the top ten. Moreover, the island was filled with metal and water spiritual essence. It was a Blessed Land for cultivators who cultivated metal and water element techniques.
However, it was also because of this that many people had their eyes on Goldstream Isle.
In fact, this Cave Abode had already been reserved. If Chu Jihe didnât know that Xia Mengran would keep her word and was afraid that she would really tear down the pavilion, he wouldnât have taken out Goldstream Isle.
After some hesitation, Chu Jihe couldnât help but say,
âHall Master Xia, Shan Wenqi of the Shan Family already booked Goldstream Isle three days ago. If you take Goldstream Isle away, 1 wonât be able to answer to Fellow Daoist Shan!â
âShan Wenqi?â Xia Mengran frowned slightly and quickly recalled. âDidnât he advance to a cultivator master two years ago? According to the time, he should have already chosen a Cave Abode to cultivate. Why did he want Goldstream Isle?â
âWellâŠâ Chu Jiheâs eyes flickered.
Xia Mengran had seen many similar things in the Martial Enforcement Hall. Seeing this, how could she not understand? A cold smile appeared on her lips.
âThe sect stipulates that every true disciple can only have one Cave Abode. Moreover, once itâs chosen, itâs forbidden to change again without the sectâs permission. Chu Jihe, you dare to collude with Shan Wenqi to a secret scheme. Do you what to have a taste of the punishment in my hall?â
Chu Jihe immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, âHall A/Iaster Xia, 1 had no choice. I canât afford to offend the Shan Family!â
After the Yan family was exterminated, the Shan family rose to prominence and replaced the Yan family to become one of the famous forces. Now, they were in the limelight. How could a small deacon like him dare to provoke them?
Xia Mengran actually knew this. Chu Jihe didnât dare to provoke the Shan family, so she wasnât afraid.
âIn short, Goldstream Isle will be given to my junior brother. If Shan Wenqi is dissatisfied, tell him to come to me. 1â11 convince him personally!â
Was she trying to convince him with her fists?
Chu Jihe cursed inwardly.
âEveryone in the Nine Suns Sect knows that youâre not to be trifled with! Shan Wenqi has to be an idiot to come to you. If he does that, not only wonât he have Goldstream Isle, but heâll also be beaten up for nothing!â
Everyone knew that Xia Mengran was a sword cultivator and had cultivated one of the eight divine powers of the Nine Suns Sect, the Divine Seal Spirit. Her combat strength was extraordinary, and she was known to be invincible below the Mystic Light Stage.
Shan Wenqi was indeed strong, but against a cultivator master like Xia Mengran, there was no doubt that he could only be beaten up!
StillâŠ
Chu Jihe glanced at Lin Shen.
âShan Wenqi wonât dare to find trouble with Hall Master Xia, but this Junior
Brother is a different story..â
