Chapter 49: Do you really think that just because you’re good-looking, everyone will care about you?
After sending the nagging Huang Six back to rest, Han Muye went to his room. As he cultivated, he thought about what Huang Six had said.
Clear Wind Temple was not a large sect. The only expert in the sect was its master, Daoist Deyue.
He seemed to be at half-step Earth Realm.
Even if such a sect betrayed the Nine Mystic Sword Sect, it would not be a big loss to the Sword Sect.
But would they make a move this time during the gathering?
If these people really did something, the outcome could be imagined.
It wouldn’t make much of a splash.
Originally, Han Muye did not care what these people would do. In any case, he was in the Sword Pavilion and no one could find him trouble.
He just did not expect these people to involve Huang Six’s first love.
No, it was a crush at best.
Even if it was a crush, if this person was injured in the Sword Sect, Huang Six would probably be very sad.
He could not tell Huang Six about this directly.
It seemed that he had to think of a way to figure out the list of sects for the gathering and do something.
He was really meant to worry. Why did he have to know everything first?
In the morning, Han Muye met Huang Six in the small courtyard.
Huang Six, who looked drunk, was stretching his back and legs, exercising hard.
“Yo, Brother, you’re early today.” Han Muye held his sword and smiled.
“Morning…” Huang Six turned his head as he breathed heavily.
Seeing the smile on Han Muye’s face, Huang Six seemed to remember something and blushed.
“Ahem, um, I drank too much last night and said a lot of things. Don’t take it seriously, don’t take it seriously,” Huang Six hurriedly said with a red face.
Han Muye waved his sword and nodded. “What drunken words did Brother say?”
“Are you saying that becoming a Heaven Realm expert is drunk talk, or is everything about sister-in-law drunk talk?”
Huang Six’s face was as red as a pig’s liver. He reached out and took the outer robe hanging on the branch before leaving.
“Where are you going, Brother?”
“To eat breakfast.”
“You’re not going to look for sister-in-law?”
“…”
In the small courtyard, Han Muye smiled and waved his sword. The sword light began to become sharp.
Invisible sword Qi began to gather.
With his cultivation at the Essence Energy Realm, even if he was only at the first level of the Essence Energy Realm, he could be considered a proper cultivator.
The sword light was very bright.
“Brother is safe and sound in the Sword Pavilion as a Sword Caretaker. I hope you won’t affect his life.”
Han Muye said softly and stabbed out with his sword.
“Slash—”
A faint sword mark appeared on the stone wall ahead.
In the morning, Huang Six sat behind the long table at the entrance of the Sword Pavilion, bored and distracted.
“Brother, why don’t you go out for a walk?”
Han Muye turned to look at him.
“Okay—” Huang Six subconsciously agreed. Then he was stunned and shook his head. “Forget it. I’m not going anywhere.”
“Are you really not going?” Han Muye stood up and said, “If you’re not going, I’ll go out then.”
With that, he walked out of the Sword Pavilion.
Huang Six opened his mouth and watched Han Muye walk out. After being stunned for a moment, he stood up and walked out of the pavilion.
“Brother, you’re leaving too?” At the door, Lu Gao hurried over.
“I’m going to walk around.” Huang Six looked up and walked down the steps with his hands behind his back.
“Today’s meat…” Lu Gao called after him.
“I want the big ribs,” came Huang Six’s voice.
“You’re already toothless, yet you’re still gnawing on bones…” Lu Gao muttered softly as he watched Huang Six leave the Sword Pavilion.
He turned to look at the Sword Pavilion door and felt the sword Qi inside. He couldn’t help but tremble and retract his head. He leaned against the door frame and dozed.
This was how an errand in the Sword Pavilion was like.
It was plain and unadorned.
Han Muye left the Sword Pavilion and went straight to the trading square in front of the Medical Hall.
Standing at the door of Suzhen Restaurant, he took a deep breath before striding in.
Bai Suzhen was not easy to deal with.
After walking into the Suzhen Restaurant, other than Bai Suzhen, there was also a female cultivator in a pink martial arts suit.
The two of them were chatting happily when Han Muye walked in. The pink-dressed female cultivator immediately shut up. Bai Suzhen looked up and her face lit up.
“My Senior Brother Han, you’re really a rare guest…”
Bai Suzhen’s eyes lit up as she walked out from behind the counter and leaned towards Han Muye.
However, after taking two steps, she saw the surprise in the eyes of the female cultivator in pink beside and stopped.
“Go ahead.” Han Muye waved his hand and looked away.
He was an upright person and wasn’t used to flirting with Bai Suzhen.
Yes, after doing business for a long time, he still had to learn to get used to some things.
Bai Suzhen nodded and turned to whisper to the female cultivator in pink.
After a while, the female cultivator quietly took out a high-grade spiritual rock and stuffed it into Bai Suzhen’s hand. Bai Suzhen handed over a jade bottle.
“It’s really a supreme-grade Cloud Qi Pill!”
The female cultivator in pink exclaimed in surprise, then tightened her grip on the bottle and looked at Bai Suzhen. “Sister Bai, do you still have this pill? I’ll increase the price by 1,000 spiritual rocks.”
“11,000 spiritual rocks each. This is much higher than the market price.”
The female cultivator’s voice was not low. Han Muye, who was holding an herb in his hand, felt his arm tremble.
11,000 spiritual rocks for a supreme-grade Cloud Qi Pill.
She paid 3,000 spiritual rocks for one and sold at 11,000 spiritual rocks, earning the difference as the middleman.
‘What a scheming profiteer!’
Turning his head slightly, Han Muye’s gaze met Bai Suzhen’s.
Bai Suzhen turned her head awkwardly and looked at the female cultivator in pink. She whispered, “Sister Yuxia, if I still have this pill, I’ll definitely sell it to you at the market price. Why would I need you to increase the price?”
The female cultivator nodded and put away the jade bottle. Then, she gritted her teeth and said hatefully, “I wonder who from the Nine Mystic Sword Sect actually broke my brother’s Dao core with just a few words.”
“Now that his cultivation has stagnated, he can’t cultivate the Sword Dao anymore. If not for this supreme-grade pill helping him stabilize his dantian and meridians, he would probably be crippled.”
“If I find out who that person is, I’ll break his bones.”
Han Muye looked curiously at the female cultivator in pink.
The female cultivator’s aura was solemn and she emitted a sharp sword intent. She was clearly an expert.
Then her brother would probably be even more powerful.
A few words could break one’s Dao core?
‘Who’s that good?’
Hearing the pink-clothed female cultivator’s words, Bai Suzhen said softly, “I didn’t regard your brother’s cultivation technique – swinging the sword millions of times and crushing the mountain with one strike – well.”
“When he really swings his sword a million times and finds that he’s still the same, I’m afraid he’ll be even more disheartened.”
‘Swing the sword a million times?’
‘Cracking rocks and destroying mountains?’
Wasn’t this person an outer sect instructor, Instructor Lin Shen?
Those few words had broken his Dao heart…
“Ahem, could this lady’s brother be Instructor Lin from the outer sect?” Han Muye looked at the female cultivator and asked in a low voice.
The female cultivator looked up at Han Muye, then turned to look at Bai Suzhen.
“Sister Bai, watch your Senior Brother Han. Don’t hit on any female cultivators he sees.”
After the female cultivator finished speaking, she glanced at Han Muye from the corner of her eye and strode out of Suzhen Restaurant.
“Do you really think that just because you’re good-looking, everyone will care about you?”
“I, Lin Yuxia, don’t fall for this.”
Han Muye shook his head and looked at Bai Suzhen.
“Storeowner Bai, shouldn’t we set a new price for this Cloud Qi Pill?”
