Chapter 166: Jade Rabbit, the Eternal Winner_2
It was just like Zhuge Caihua, who, during the college entrance examination competition, had her neck slashed by Meng Yu and still lay there, puzzled and bewildered.
Perhaps she was right, perhaps she harbored no ill will, or perhaps, when she was pushed to the front as a scapegoat, she felt that it was the will of the people.
It was like that time at the consultation meeting when Councilor Wang, who persistently badgered Meng Yu, always thought it was easy to crush an ant beneath his foot.
Yes, the family of Ouyang Jindan is in a Third-Order Minor World.
But, Meng Yu is no easy prey.
"Brilliant."
Suddenly, Master Lihua laughed.
It was quite normal for everyone to have a poor attitude towards Meng Yu, after all, regardless of anything, Real Man Zhao, as well as Star Industrial Company, were our own people, so why should six Golden Cores hold a meeting for a poor boy like Meng Yu?
"Very splendid."
Master Lihua shook her head.
"I will notify Cai Hua that the Son of Heavenly Way's project is to be halted; there's no need to cooperate with Meng Yu any longer. All projects, stop."
"Ah?"
Some people were startled, while others hastily tried to dissuade her.
Why bother, why must it be so, the attitude of most people was that you can't do this, you must properly persuade Meng Yu, it was his fault after all.
Get him to admit his mistake, and then let it go, right?
"No, I will persuade Pear Blossom to sever ties with him immediately and scold her vehemently, to have her confess to the judicial authorities, all her wrongdoings, and they can pass judgment as they please!"
Master Lihua spoke very, very earnestly.
"I too am at fault, I will now resign from all public positions and close my doors to contemplate my mistakes, thank you all."
...
In the Western Wastes, the Moon-Watching Sect.
Everyone knew that there was a Real Man Bai here, who did not like to contend with others and seldom left his abode due to the Mountain Protection Array, but these days, many old friends had come to visit.
For instance, right now, Bai Qianqian was welcoming an old friend—a Green Bird.
There was a recent rumor that Real Man Bai of the Moon-Watching Sect had found a relic and made a fortune.
This was quite normal, as there were always some lucky ones in the Cultivation World who had found good fortune, such as now, the Green Bird blinking and looking at a jade rabbit wearing Greenwood Dragon Blood Armor.
It seemed that the rumor was not just a rumor, but that Bai Qianqian really had struck it rich.
This set of Greenwood Armor had hung in the Pavilion of a Hundred Treasures for one hundred and twenty years, crafted by skilled artisans from the heartwood of a ten-thousand-year-old spirit tree, every carving imbued with talismans, then soaked in dragon blood and possessing many powerful features, such as being able to transform into a regular robe, size adjustable at will.
This suit of armor was very famous, not only because of its powerful functions but also because it was priced at five times that of similar armors!
No one knew how many Golden Core Masters from the Western Wastes had shown interest in this suit of armor, but considering the hefty price tag—five times the usual rate—they eventually opted for more cost-effective alternatives, and even the Pavilion of a Hundred Treasures never thought it would sell, just using it as a means to flaunt their wealth.
Until Bai Qianqian bought it.
After returning from Changdong Minor World, Meng Yu fitted Bai Qianqian with the best equipment.
Meng Yu emptied his small treasury (in his own words) to equip Bai Qianqian with a suit of Greenwood Dragon Blood Armor, five Array Plates, two mirrors, and a large number of talismans, etc., all with the intention of continuing to strengthen Bai Qianqian.
With the equipment ready, the next step was naturally combat training.
The virtual battles of the Immortal Sect go up to Foundation Establishment, and one should not even dream about reaching the Golden Core Realm, but why play virtual battles when you have money? Isn't a real person better?
In the Western Wastes, as long as you have Spirit Stones, you can find sparring partners of any kind, and Bai Qianqian, connected with the energy of the Mountain Protection Array within her own sect and clad in the Greenwood Dragon Blood Armor, could at most be defeated by other Golden Cores, but definitely not killed, allowing her to train with peace of mind and enhance her combat abilities.
"Oh my, Qianqian, you've really struck it rich, how could you accept this?"
Accepting the Storage Bag from Bai Qianqian's hands, the Green Bird Swordsman laughed heartily, squinting her eyes.
Bai Qianqian's Flying Sword sorcery, she barely glanced at the reward before leaving everything behind to come here as a companion.
"It's nothing, please instruct me, and do your best."
Bai Qianqian had a very amiable demeanor, but she remembered what her mother said a long time ago, "People from the Green Bird tribe are nice, but they're not very good at interacting with others. Each one is a cold beauty who doesn't like to smile, so don't think they're impolite."
However, now, she smiled so... kindly?
Then, the battle began.
Then, she lost miserably.
Her body was covered with bruises, repeatedly injured by the Green Bird Swordsman, even though she was connected to the Mountain Protection Array, she still found herself on the verge of tears time and time again.
"You've found a lover."
The Green Bird Swordsman sighed.
"When a woman is desperate, it's often because she has fallen in love with a man, or she hates one to death. What about you?"
She looked at Bai Qianqian and smiled slightly.
"Are you sure he loves you as much as you love him?"
Bai Qianqian didn't speak, but she thought of Meng Yu's words.
Meng Yu took out all his money (so he claimed), including his personal savings, and went on a crazy shopping spree for Bai Qianqian.
"It's common for news to leak, buying the Greenwood Dragon Blood Armor will indeed cause a lot of trouble, but it's still better than you going over there to do business and then getting captured by someone from the Golden Core. Understand?"
"Shopping also has its risks, you know? We're smuggling, do you understand? Those tax people are even more troublesome than the Enforcement Hall. What, can't fight just run, it's best not to engage in combat, and then I'll take you away? You need time to become a jade rabbit, and if there's no time, how can I take you with me?"
"If you get caught, of course I won't come to rescue you, that's a Golden Core, and I, a mere Qi Cultivator, can only run first."
"If you get caught, don't be afraid, once they find out you're a jade rabbit, they definitely won't harm you. You'll just become a celebrity of the Immortal Sect from then on. Make sure you don't say that you're from another universe, just say that you have no idea what's going on and that I abducted you. That way, I'll be a bit safer."
"If you get caught, don't be scared. At most, you'll spend a hundred years on paid duty to collect Spirit Sand, and then you'll be free. Everyone will know your name, and your image will be everywhere. Do you think that if you don't agree, they'll have no way to deal with you?"
"What a joke, you think if you don't agree, other people can't? The super turtle essence has been sold so much, and yet the turtle in the pond is still alive and well. Out of seven mango drinks, guess how many mangoes there are? Don't worry, once you are caught, your merchandise will come out very quickly! Never underestimate the shamelessness of those merchants and the vulgarity of the consumers, the more you refute, the more excited the crowd gets!"
"That little black mother rabbit from the Immortal Sect, she has disappeared for long periods several times, I bet she ran away. It would be crazy if she didn't."
"When that time comes, I can only silently watch you, perhaps buy a ticket to visit you, and wait for you for a hundred years before seeing you again."
The man's words were sharp, but Bai Qianqian's heart was filled with sweetness.
Yes, that night, after browsing shopping websites for the entire evening, she suddenly remembered many past events.
Her friends needed resources to fight desperately, crying as they said their goodbyes.
The juniors came to her for help, but she was powerless.
Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire
Having established the Moon-Watching Sect, she was bullied in various ways, and despite her hard work for hundreds of years, she had scarcely accumulated any wealth.
"Poverty has never been a virtue. We must work hard to earn Spirit Stones, it's robbing the rich to help the poor!"
Although she felt that something was not quite right, Meng Yu promised to try not to kill or injure people.
She was truly in love with such a man.
"Oh right, Green Bird Sister, I have a mental method here on how to feign death. You should practice it well. It can be very useful on many occasions, like playing dead when being chased, making it hard to be discovered, or even hiding in a Storage Bag."
"Let me see."
The Green Bird Swordsman nodded, taking the mental method and studying it meticulously, full of praise.
Feigning death is not shameful; it's shameful to be killed. Besides, this mental method is extremely precious.
"Currently, only the Spirit Turtle or jade rabbit can cultivate this mental method to its peak by relying on the Divine Skills in their bloodline, but if you, Green Bird Sister, with your powerful abilities, can discover something new, you must tell me. Thanks a lot."
"Of course."
The Green Bird Swordsman nodded solemnly.
"That's great, that's great."
Meng Yu mentioned that they must take precautions before the event, and who knows, maybe one day he will get along with the Immortal Sect and bring a large group of friends to shop.
The Immortal Sect is a good place. It doesn't matter if you have no money, as long as you have talent, you can even shop for free.
