Chapter 104: Bad Luck
At the last trade fair, Zheng Qiu's craftsmanship in refining equipment had already become famous, and major forces from several surrounding cities came to purchase equipment, and by this time, he had accumulated fifteen orders.
Bai Lian also set a new rule, that is, the refiner must bring two sets of materials. If successful, the transaction will go smoothly. If unsuccessful, the materials will not be returned.
Zheng Qiu also fell into a busy state. He spent most of his time every day refining equipment. Whenever he had time, Zheng Qiu would start to ponder the "Black Jade Dharma Image". Although his body was constantly moving, his mind was clearer than ever before, and his own plan also took shape in his mind.
Because of this, the speed of refining equipment has slowed down. People from various families come to urge them every day, but Bai Lian persuades them all with just one sentence: "A good magic weapon needs to be tempered and needs ingenious ideas. If you want scrap copper and iron, I can deliver it in one day. If you want a family heirloom, just wait."
This statement was very arrogant, but not only did it leave no complaints from the major families, it actually resulted in more orders.
Zheng Qiu was immersed in "movement" and "stillness" every day. In just a few days, the number of outer disciples had exceeded a hundred. Among them, the one that Zheng Qiu envied the most was Xiao Bosheng. He was the son of destiny, and his luck almost covered the entire Wuxian Palace. However, there was a trace of black air on the golden bird statue above the main hall of Wuxian Palace.
Zheng Qiu understood in his heart, indeed, there are differences among the children of destiny. When Zhao Yiban came as a guest, the fortune of Wuxian Palace was almost unaffected, but Xiao Bosheng could bring a hint of bad luck to Wuxian Palace. Indeed, this child must not be kept!
While Zheng Qiu was thinking, Xiao Bosheng came to him with a little girl and said, "Master, this is my sister Xiao Yaya. I have made arrangements for my family. My father has also left Tangjia Village, and my sister came to me to learn from me."
Zheng Qiu nodded and looked at Xiao Yaya. He saw that Xiao Yaya's aura was as dark as ink, and a gray mist was constantly moving between her auras. What did this mean?
Or what does this kind of luck represent?
After observation, it seems that the black person's bad luck has reached its extreme. Xiao Yaya in front of him is obviously close to death, but the gray mist entangled around her is interesting. Could it be because of the boundary breaker who successfully descended into this world?
Zheng Qiu turned slightly to avoid the two people's kneeling, and then looked at Xiao Bosheng: "I think you have excellent qualifications. In my eyes, your future achievements will definitely be better than mine. You and I can just be friends as equals. There is no need to call each other master and disciple, and there is no need to kneel down and kowtow."
Xiao Bosheng thought Zheng Qiu was unwilling to accept him as a disciple, so he hurriedly said, "Master! In my heart, you are my master! You are my guide on the road of cultivation. I have the fate to cultivate in your sect. It is my duty to teach you, Master."
Zheng Qiu shook his head gently, then took off his mask. A young face appeared in front of the two. Xiao Yaya blushed, while Xiao Bosheng looked confused: "Master, how old are you?"
Zheng Qiu smiled and said, "You should be almost an adult! Age doesn't really mean anything to a cultivator, but I'm quite surprised that you could call me Master after seeing my face. I see that your bone age is already 18 years old, and I'm two years younger than you. In the world of cultivation, the title of Master is not something you can just say. Do you want to be my son? That's not appropriate. So you don't have to call me Master in the future."
"And you can't stay in Wuxian Palace for long. I will only give you seven days. During these seven days, I will accompany you to practice. When the seven days are up, no matter how much you practice, you must leave here."
Xiao Bosheng's face turned pale. He had already made plans to stay here for a long time. He didn't expect that after all the trouble he had, he would end up with such a result: "Then Master... Senior! Why is this happening?"
Zheng Qiu said calmly, "Your sister can stay and practice. Your path is too bumpy. You are destined to be in the sea of stars, not in the small Wuxian Palace. All I can do for you is to help you go out. In fact, the help I can give you is too small. Besides, you have already practiced the "Sword Art of Robbery". I see that your realm has broken through the first level of Qi training in just a few days. I have also read this sword art. It is a very mysterious practice. It would be a pity to give it up. Moreover, the "Sword Art of Robbery" is also a practice that can grow. It has almost no upper limit. The more you experience, the stronger the practice will be. You will only waste time in the Wuxian Palace. Although you have not wasted your qualifications, your upper limit will be greatly reduced. This is one of the reasons why I let you leave."
"The second point is that I see that you have great luck. You are like the bright moon. When you go out, treasures are easily available. The resources of my Wuxian Palace are definitely not as much as what you get through your adventures. And the last point, which is the most important, is that you will bring certain misfortunes to the people around you! Of course, you don't have to panic. As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. Your misfortune will also be accompanied by opportunities. It's just that I can't let these hundreds of people bear this suffering with you. Since I am already the Palace Master of Wuxian Palace, I must be responsible for these hundreds of people."
Xiao Bosheng seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said, "You let my sister stay here to practice because I will bring misfortune to her?"
Zheng Qiu gently reached out and flicked his sleeves to help the two of them up, then he grabbed with one hand, and a barrier appeared around Xiao Yaya's body, blocking all her senses.
"That's right! Even though it's cruel, I still have to tell you. I don't know what caused this consequence. But she is dying now. Or she will die for you. Or maybe she won't die. But one day when she wakes up, she will no longer be herself."
Xiao Bosheng's eyes suddenly became dull, and then he became crazy: "You are talking nonsense! How is it possible!"
At this moment, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. The clouds began to rotate, forming a huge eye of the wind in the sky. In the eye of the wind, there appeared a magnificent palace. In the palace, an old man looked like a rotten skeleton, holding a golden scepter in his hand: "Wuxian Palace? Hehehe~ Huosha! You must protect the evildoers of my Nalan clan in the upper realm!"
The voice was low and hoarse. Just a simple sentence was enough to shock Zheng Qiu so much that he vomited blood.
Zheng Qiu lowered his head due to the oppression. Even the golden statue behind him did not dare to help Zheng Qiu to resist the pressure. Just as he was about to say something, blood gushed out of his mouth like a fountain.
Zheng Qiu turned his head and looked around, and found that everyone was shocked unconscious, and he was the only one who was conscious.
"Huosha! Answer me! Are you going to be an enemy of my Nalan clan?"
Zheng Qiu was forced to kneel on the ground, and after he knelt, the blood stopped gushing out and he could speak through gritted teeth: "Master, Master Chi Lian!"
As soon as the six words were uttered, the world began to change. A fiery red shadow forced its way into the light curtain. The figure was extremely blurry but it made a sound like thunder.
"Who called me by my real name? Oh? Old Ghost Nalan, you are here too!"
The old man in the light curtain was slightly stunned before continuing: "Is this boy your disciple?"
The red figure trembled up and down, and then a divine consciousness enveloped Zheng Qiu: "Oh? Really? But I don't remember having an avatar in the lower world!"
Zheng Qiu slowly said, "The disciple has chosen the "Red Lian Heart Sutra" in Baishamen! Senior Brother Huangsha Zhang Huiyu will accept the disciple on behalf of the master!"
The old man chuckled: "To use a tiger's skin as a pretext? How ridiculous!"
The red light and shadow swept across the entire place, and then his gaze fixed on Xiao Bosheng. His expression suddenly changed: "Nalan Old Ghost! He is my disciple! I will come to him to ask for advice tomorrow!"
The old man was slightly stunned before continuing, "I have no intention of becoming your enemy! I just need your disciples to kill the two evildoers of my Nalan family!"
The red figure suddenly shouted, "Kill your grandma's leg! I'm telling you straight, I'll protect this kid! This is the hope of my world! I can't back down!"
The old man moved slightly: "That's a pity! My Nalan family will send servants to the lower world soon! Your disciple and those two evildoers must die!"
The red shadow laughed heartily: "Then don't blame me! You were the one who started the trouble!"
The red shadow slapped the old man's light curtain, shattering it. The old man's withered face looked a little hideous. "In the name of Nalan from the upper realm, I appeal to the world. Anyone who kills Huosha, the Palace Master of Wuxian Palace, will be rewarded with an immortal weapon! A set of skills! If any of my Nalan family members kill this beast at all costs, the upper realm will open a passage to welcome him back to the main house! Daoist Fellow Chilian, are you satisfied?"
The red shadow was speechless for a while: "It's useless to tell you anything, come on! Let's go to the void and fight for ten thousand rounds!"
The wind rolled and the clouds moved, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth suddenly became chaotic! The dark clouds in the sky gathered in an instant, turning into a stone tablet that fell at the foot of the Wuxian Palace Mountain, like a coordinate guiding the world's position. The light curtain shattered, and the surroundings of Wuxian Palace were instantly swept by countless divine consciousnesses.
"Haha! It seems like I accidentally offended some big guy!" Zheng Qiu smiled bitterly, then felt something was wrong, "Are you sick? Why the hell would you kill me instead of Xiao Bosheng?"
