Chapter 548: 548 Cultivation Days
Chapter 548 Cultivation Days
One could say this question really hit the nail on the head.
Baihe and Gu Ning looked directly at each other.
Their expressions turned very serious, like they wanted to say something but held back.
This made Jiang Xiaobai understand one thing, there was a big hidden secret and it seemed these two would not reveal it.
“Forget it, forget it, if it’s difficult for you then don’t say it. I don’t have any other questions anyway, considering you would probably not answer them.”
“But, I think I know why.”
“You definitely want me to help you with something, and it’s a big deal, isn’t it?”
Jiang Xiaobai nonchalantly waved his hand: “It’s a small thing, I’ll definitely agree to help.”
Upon hearing this, both of them looked surprised.
“Are you sure? This matter could potentially endanger your life, any carelessness could lead to your soul dispersing.”
Baihe raised his eyebrows at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Indeed, you two have helped me a lot, I am naturally not an ungrateful person.”
Jiang Xiaobai said, with a light smile.
He seemed relaxed, but, in reality, he was not relaxed at all.
The reason he said so was because he just heard a voice from the system in his mind.
“Congratulations to the host for triggering a choice!”
“Choice One: Reject their invitation for help, reward of a thousand reputation points.”
“Choice Two: Agree to their invitation for help, reward of fifty drops of Spirit Liquid and ten Spirit Scrolls.”
From a logical perspective, and even considering the rewards for the task, Jiang Xiaobai would definitely agree.
And he also knew that these two were not from this world. After a little thought, combined with the War God’s command that Baihe had given him,
Jiang Xiaobai more or less knew that they must want to leave this world and return to their original one.
This thought was also on Jiang Xiaobai’s mind.
He naturally understood that he wouldn’t stay on the Tianxuan Continent for long; as long as he survived, leaving was inevitable.
Moreover, if he remembered correctly, there was also a challenge task in the system—to traverse the world’s barriers.
Once certain conditions were met, the system would surely issue it.
Getting familiar with these two first was a good initial step, which would be of great help in completing his future tasks.
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai being so generous, the two looked at him with doubt in their eyes.
Gu Ning felt somewhat guilty: “Xiaobai, I know this is not very fair to you, but…”
“Don’t worry, you’re my master, if I don’t help you, who will I help?”
Jiang Xiaobai smiled lightly: “Although you never quite fulfill your responsibilities as a master, I don’t mind, I’ve always hoped to have a master.”
“Well, okay, I also have to tell you something else.”
Gu Ning nodded: “I have sent your disciple, Huseng, away.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai’s eyebrows furrowed instantly.
“You sent him away? Why did you send him away?”
“He does not belong here.”
“Huh?”
Jiang Xiaobai was completely stunned!
Why was it that he always encountered such absurd events? Huseng did not belong here?
“I know you are probably guessing, but I can assure you, the reality is quite different from your guess.”
Gu Ning gave a mysterious smile: “Alright, since you don’t have any more questions, go back and cultivate.”
“For you, this is actually a great opportunity.”
Having said that, Gu Ning waved her hand, a mysterious and extraordinary force overwhelmed Jiang Xiaobai, and when he appeared again, he was already inside the golden hall.
“Go and cultivate. If you haven’t reached the Fusion Stage in three months, I’ll flog you.”
When she said the last few words, Gu Ning even raised her voice, and Jiang Xiaobai could even see a whip appearing in her hand.
He shivered instantly, covered in cold sweat.
My goodness, this woman was quite fierce!
Soon after, someone appeared next to Jiang Xiaobai, his face filled with respect.
“Young Master, please.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded his head and followed the man out, all the while asking him questions about this place.
It was only then that he found out, this place was located in the very center of the Holy City.
This was the Blood Mist Pavilion!
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t know how formidable the Blood Mist Pavilion was, but he knew that in the Holy City, the hierarchy was strict.
The closer you were to the central area, the more terrifying the power!
This was beyond doubt.
Since the Blood Mist Pavilion could be called the center of the center, their strength must be top-notch.
Thinking about this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but joke: “Doesn’t that mean, my master is incredibly powerful? Not only in the Holy City, but also among the rare few on the entire continent?”
However, the man leading the way just smiled and shook his head, not revealing a single piece of information.
This made Jiang Xiaobai feel a bit perplexed. Could it be the Holy City was not the strongest sector?
“Young Master, this is it. Your friends are all in this courtyard.”
“There are plenty of cultivation rooms inside the courtyard, you can cultivate at will. I am Kuang Hu. If you need anything, just let me know.”
Pointing at the gate of the courtyard, Kuang Hu gestured respectfully, then pushed the door open.
The courtyard was quiet, without a single sound. There were ten small rooms with several doors tightly shut.
These must be the cultivation rooms, Ao Yan and the others were probably cultivating inside.
However, after entering, Jiang Xiaobai found that Kuang Hu wasn’t leaving, but standing outside the door.
Realizing Jiang Xiaobai’s confusion, Kuang Hu lowered his head and spoke humbly.
“Young Master, the Holy Master has ordered that you can’t step out of the house for the next three months.”
“Also, there is a formation seal placed here by the Holy Master herself. Young Master, you may have many methods, but none of them would work. The moment this seal is triggered, the Holy Master will know immediately.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai felt a twitch in his mouth.
Was Gu Ning really going to lock him up here for three months?
However, he didn’t mind much, considering it would give him a good opportunity to cultivate.
The courtyard door closed, Jiang Xiaobai knew Ao Yan and the others were cultivating, so he didn’t disturb them, choosing a cultivation room to enter.
After sitting cross-legged, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t start cultivating immediately, but began to organize his recent gains.
After completing the task of cleaning up the Towards Heaven Sect, he obtained fifty drops of Spirit Liquid, and after agreeing to help Gu Ning and the others, he received another forty drops of Spirit Liquid.
This Spirit Liquid was particularly effective for cultivating his spirit soul.
Jiang Xiaobai then glanced at his reputation points, he did indeed observe a decrease in his negative reputation points, but they were still significantly higher than his positive reputation points.
For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but wonder if someone had forced him into a notorious role?
Wasn’t that what his title of “Great Villain of Three Thousand Worlds” implied?
“Regardless, let’s go to the War God Space and fight a bit first.”
Jiang Xiaobai shrugged his shoulders. The effects of his title couldn’t possibly be applied in the War God Space, right?
