Chapter 362 - 309 Blending in with Them
The second visitor was also a female Golden Core.
Many Golden Core cultivators had returned to Ceres for the once-in-ten-thousand-years celebration, and they were granted various high temporary identities, which, however, did not involve actual affairs, so as not to infringe on the Foundation Building Cultivators' authorities. Therefore, they actually had some free time, including welcoming various guests.
For instance, coming to see some fresh young talent from the Immortal Sect to see if they could play matchmaker, or if they were very interested in the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber and intended to observe it.
This mature Golden Core with her poised and leisurely demeanor, upon entering Meng Yu's cave abode, was startled by the scene she encountered.
Ah, Xia Hailu and Shi Yushu were still there, sitting quietly, not acting arrogant at all.
This was indeed a bit strange.
Generally speaking, the higher the cultivator's cultivation and the younger their age, the more arrogant they tend to be. Normally, aside from sparring sessions and the like, there are not many frequent gatherings, and everyone is busy. Why then had these two remained here?
And even if Xiao Jun had used the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, he was still at the Foundation Establishment level; why did they seem so well-behaved?
She sent a look to Shi Yushu, who very clearly indicated that Xiao Jun was easy to talk to, and the secrets of the Divine Saber had already been obtained.
Uh-huh, Shi Yushu was very good at deceiving people.
Then, she glanced at Xia Hailu, who also made a scissors gesture and revealed a triumphant smile, indicating that she, too, had learned the secrets of the Divine Saber.
Ah, is it that easy to talk to?
She was stunned for a moment.
The top-secret of the Divine Saber could at least fetch the resources for a Golden Core (because no matter the improvements, the threshold would certainly be high), and if handled well, it could even give rise to a thousand-year-old family—an information worth an entire star, and this person just handed it over like that.
She looked again at Xiao Jun, whose youthful face was filled with an innocent naivety, simply put -- he didn't care and believed he could solve everything.
Well, she was quite content; she liked such people from the Immortal Sect.
The Blood God Sect had deep-seated hatred towards the Immortal Sect, but the truce had also lasted for more than three thousand years.
Eight thousand years ago, the Immortal Sect waged war in the name of equality for all and liberating the common folk.
The battle went on for three thousand years and temporarily came to an end with the demise of the Seven Great Transforming Gods of the Immortal Sect. After another two thousand years of tug-of-war, peace finally arrived. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire
Throughout the three thousand years, many geniuses from the Immortal Sect came to the Blood God Sect, and among them, many sought to achieve their personal worth.
Was Xiao Jun one such person?
Suddenly, she felt a bit of pity for this child, not knowing how much he had suffered at the Immortal Sect.
Unlike the Immortal Sect's propaganda demonizing Blood God Sect, the Blood God Sect had been reforming over the years.
A false peace: the upper echelons collude and make huge fortunes, and the commoners prepare for a fight to the death day and night.
True peace: the upper echelons recognize the gap, painfully reform, the commoners do not wish to fight, and seek refuge with each other for a better life, while a small handful work for an ideal.
Three thousand years ago, before and after peace with the Immortal Sect, the Blood God Sect proclaimed, "Learn from the Immortal Sect, and surpass them!"
The old Empire, having been defeated by outsiders, is a bad thing; a series of defeats greatly weakened the Blood God Sect, but more importantly, one should ponder why, despite its vast lands and numerous people, it lost again and again. The Blood God Sect was hurt and then it changed.
The arrival of peace was not because a handful of people from the Blood God Sect and the Immortal Sect colluded for business, but because the Blood God Sect underwent top-to-bottom reforms, striving to improve itself, rather than continue as the old barbarous empire.
They studied the structure and rules of the Immortal Sect extensively, inviting members of the Immortal Sect to help guide the new building of the Blood God Sect, and even enthusiastically invited Mirror Twelve, expressing the hope that he would become the educational director of the Blood God Sect!
This request left Mirror Twelve of the Iron Blood Sect speechless; they earnestly stated that the children of the Blood God Sect were humans, too, and thanked his brothers for their sacrifices, which taught them how to better themselves!
Peace came because it was a starry, dazzling time, just like wars that are first fought for a better future.
Cultivators from the Blood God Sect would seek refuge in the Lighthouse Immortal Sect, and naturally, there were also noble individuals from the Immortal Sect who came to help the common folk of the Blood God Sect!
Then, such a frank and steady boy has come...
She watched Meng Yu with a smile, her face filled with the glow of a Holy Mother, radiating like a crescent moon amidst blossoming trees heavy with snow.
"Child, welcome to the Blood God Sect."
The two of them had a pleasant chat, as she took interest in Meng Yu's personal issues, said you're our guest now that you've come here, then they talked about the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, and Meng Yu mentioned that there were two recordings available that clearly explained how to start learning the Divine Saber and so on.
Meng Yu's good intentions fell flat as both Xia Hailu and Shi Yushu declared that this was a matter of personal privacy, not to be outsourced. The videos were meant to be shown to schools or employers, suggesting it would be better for Yun Zhita to experience it directly, she would then have a sudden realization.
Though Yun Zhita felt something was off, she wasn't worried; surely Meng Yu hadn't carved the manual for the Divine Saber on his back, necessitating its display only by stripping bare?
Yun Zhita picked up a saber and glanced at the two grinning faces—although they were Golden Core Masters and also had private dealings, she always felt that these two were setting her up.
What do you think?
