Immortal God of War-Chapter 925 - 883: Chance Encounter with Chu Xuan

"Haha..."

"That slap to the face was really satisfying!"

After Fu An-shan left, Fatty immediately gave Li He a thumbs up and laughed.

Li He also had a big smile on his face.

In the past, even if he knew the other party was unfriendly, he wouldn’t have turned against them face to face like today.

But now, he’s got confidence and isn’t afraid anymore.

Suddenly.

Li He furrowed his brows and said, "Do you think Fu An-shan might suspect that it’s you who gave me the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill, seeing you working here?"

"Is he that smart?"

Fatty sneered.

"That’s quite true."

Li Yan nodded in agreement.

"You guys!"

"Don’t underestimate him. Though he’s somewhat arrogant, being the manager of the North City Trading Pavilion proves he’s not a fool."

Li He shook his head and smiled, though there was still a hint of worry in his brows.

"Don’t worry, he looks down on us so much, he’d never suspect us at all."

Fatty said confidently.

"Makes sense."

Li He nodded, feeling quite relieved in his heart.

Li Yan glanced at Li He, then at Fatty, her eyes sparkling.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Fatty noticed Li Yan’s unusual gaze and instantly became vigilant.

Li Yan said nothing.

Fatty swallowed and said, "Don’t tell me you fancy me? Let me tell you, I’m a taken man, don’t be tempted by my looks."

"Get lost!"

Li Yan’s face turned dark instantly, she had never seen someone so narcissistic.

She asked, "Has your boss come out yet?"

"Is there even a need to ask?"

"If he hadn’t come out, where would I get the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill?"

Fatty replied as if looking at an idiot.

Li Yan raised an eyebrow and angrily said, "Can’t you have a better attitude when speaking?"

"Does my attitude have a problem?"

Fatty looked at her seriously.

"I don’t want to waste my words with you, I’m going to find your boss."

Li Yan snorted, turned around, and opened a portal.

"Uh!"

Fatty was stunned, then chuckled and said, "So you fancy my boss, huh? Let me tell you, my boss is also a taken man, and not just by one or two. So, you might as well not waste your effort."

He added, "Besides, with your looks, my boss wouldn’t even fancy you."

"You..."

Li Yan glared at him furiously, eyes blazing with anger.

This bastard, why is he so snarky?

It’s infuriating.

Meanwhile, Li He looked at the two of them and shook his head, his old face full of helplessness.

...

Now back to Qin Feiyang.

After Fatty left with the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill, he also left the alchemy room.

"Senior Brother, how do I get to the Martial Arts Treasury?"

Coming out of the tower, he caught hold of a young man and asked with a smile.

"It’s you!"

The young man was initially annoyed at Qin Feiyang’s abruptness, but when he saw Qin Feiyang’s face, he immediately became polite.

Because by now, everyone knew Qin Feiyang had a Divine Envoy Token.

He indeed told Qin Feiyang the location of the Martial Arts Treasury.

Qin Feiyang thanked him, then soared into the sky, heading deep inside.

According to the young man, the Martial Arts Treasury was near the Arena, adjacent to the Resource Hall.

And guarding the Martial Arts Treasury was an elderly man with the last name Wang, whose strength was unfathomable.

Everyone called him Elder Wang.

In a moment.

A tall stone tower came into Qin Feiyang’s view.

The stone tower was ancient and had ten floors in total, the tower gate was tightly shut, and Elder Wang was sitting cross-legged in front of the stone gate.

Seeing Elder Wang in person, Qin Feiyang was quite surprised.

The disciples and elders of the General Tower all dressed flamboyantly, didn’t they?

But this old man was wearing shabby linen clothes, with his white hair disheveled.

Not only did he appear ordinary, but he also gave off a scruffy vibe.

"Greetings, Elder Wang."

Before the stone tower, there was a small square, Qin Feiyang landed on it, walked to Elder Wang, and bowed.

Though this old man seemed ordinary, he did not dare underestimate him.

Because if he were just an ordinary person, would the General Tower Master assign him to guard the Martial Arts Treasury?

Everyone knows.

The Martial Arts Treasury is the most important place everywhere.

Elder Wang slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Qin Feiyang, and stretched out his hand, "Give me the Identity Token."

His tone was very flat, and his attitude was also very cold.

Qin Feiyang took out the Identity Token and handed it over with both hands.

Elder Wang glanced at it and returned it to Qin Feiyang, saying, "You have an hour."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Elder Wang waved his hand, and the stone door behind him slowly opened.

Qin Feiyang glanced at Elder Wang, then stepped boldly into the stone tower.

Rumble!

The stone door closed as soon as he entered.

Qin Feiyang turned to look at the stone door, then looked forward.

Before him was a completely sealed stone chamber, about several meters across.

On all four walls, black shelves were neatly arranged.

These shelves were not metal but were made of stone, exuding an ancient aura.

On the stone shelves, there were rows of gray stone boxes, many covered with a layer of dust.

At this moment.

A woman stood in front of one of the stone shelves, scanning the gray stone boxes, but with her back to Qin Feiyang, her face was not visible.

Apart from these stone shelves and the woman, there was nothing else or anyone else, making the space feel empty and quiet.

Qin Feiyang glanced around, then turned to look at the side.

Next to him was a staircase.

The stairs were also made of stone, leading to the second floor.

But at the entrance to the second floor, there was a tightly closed stone door.

"Could it be that we’re not allowed to go to the second floor?"

Qin Feiyang murmured softly.

"You can’t go up."

At this moment.

The woman spoke without turning her head.

Qin Feiyang was momentarily stunned, and walked over to stand beside the woman, looking at her face.

Instantly.

He froze.

This woman, with fair skin and beautiful features, wore a snow-white long dress and had a tall and slender figure.

Her big eyes were like black gems, clear and bright, sparkling with enchanting allure.

Her long, shiny black hair draped over her fragrant shoulders, exuding a faint fragrance.

In short.

This woman was very beautiful.

However.

This face was also very familiar—it was the very woman Fatty had fallen in love with at first sight, Chu Xuan!

"What a coincidence."

Qin Feiyang murmured to himself and smiled, "Should I call you Junior Sister Chu Xuan, or Senior Sister Chu Xuan?"

"Huh?"

Chu Xuan had never glanced at him. Hearing this, she was taken aback and turned to look at Qin Feiyang.

"It’s you."

Immediately.

Her pretty eyebrows raised, and there was unmistakable dislike in her eyes.

This left Qin Feiyang puzzled.

Firstly, he hadn’t offended her.

Secondly, he hadn’t bullied her, so why such an expression?

Qin Feiyang chuckled, "Is there a misunderstanding between us?"

"Hmph!"

"Forgotten? What did your companion say about me a year ago?"

"At the time, I was abandoned by someone, but there was no need to explain, right?"

"In short, you men are all worthless."

Chu Xuan snorted coldly, then turned and walked elsewhere.

Qin Feiyang smiled bitterly.

Chu Xuan was undoubtedly referring to Fatty.

"Miss, you indeed misunderstood."

"My companion at that time was simply well-intentioned, trying to offer you some comfort..."

But before Qin Feiyang could finish, Chu Xuan suddenly turned and said, "I don’t need anyone’s comfort!"

"Alright, alright."

"I won’t say it anymore."

Qin Feiyang waved his hands continuously, feeling a considerable headache.

Originally he wanted to help Fatty redeem himself a bit, but unexpectedly, this woman had such a fiery temper.

He decided not to embarrass himself further and started to examine the stone boxes on the shelf.

The stone boxes were all the same size and shape, with no markings or words on them.

However, it was clear.

Inside the stone boxes, they must contain jade slips.

So the question was.

Without any markings, how would you choose?

Purely rely on luck?

Qin Feiyang pondered for a while and grabbed one stone box casually.

"Kindly reminding you, think it through before opening the stone box."

At this moment.

Chu Xuan’s voice was heard.

"Why?"

Qin Feiyang asked, puzzled.

"Because once opened, you cannot choose another stone box."

Chu Xuan explained.

"I see!"

Qin Feiyang nodded in realization, glanced at the stone box in his hand, and then put it back.

Next.

He walked towards Chu Xuan.

"You kindly reminded me, showing you’re someone reasonable."

"Therefore, you shouldn’t hate all men because of one Guo Feng."

"That’s very unfair to us, you know?"

Qin Feiyang smiled.

"Don’t mention him to me."

Chu Xuan said, her voice ice-cold.

"Alright, alright, won’t mention him."

Qin Feiyang nodded repeatedly, turned to glance at the stairs, and asked curiously, "How can I get to the second floor?"

"You’ve been at the General Tower for a year and don’t know?"

Chu Xuan frowned.

Qin Feiyang chuckled, "I’ve been in seclusion for a year, haven’t been out gathering information."

"A year of seclusion?"

Chu Xuan looked at him in surprise, explaining, "The martial arts library has ten floors in total. After the first free entry, you need contribution values to enter."

"What’s a contribution value?"

Qin Feiyang was shocked and asked.

Chu Xuan said, "Contribution value is like a virtual number, similar to a currency."

"How do you earn contribution values?"

Qin Feiyang asked.

"By capturing fierce beasts alive."

"Fierce beasts of different cultivation levels will earn corresponding contribution values."

Chu Xuan explained.

"Really?"

Qin Feiyang was dumbfounded and asked, "Why catch them alive? Wouldn’t dead ones count? What’s the difference?"

"Of course there’s a difference."

"Catching alive proves you captured them with your own abilities."

"If dead, it might be from you killing them or someone else killing them for you."

"Most disciples at the General Tower have family backgrounds, so the higher-ups have to guard against this."

"Moreover, needing contribution values to enter the martial arts library is the higher-ups’ alternative way to inspire our zeal and cultivate our practical combat experience and fighting awareness."

Chu Xuan explained.

"I see!"

Qin Feiyang exclaimed in realization.

Indeed.

If someone spends all day meditating and cultivating, even with high cultivation, they’ll be useless later.
