Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 123 A Promise (4th Update)



If he were using his identity as an elder of Azure Dragon Hall, Wang Dafa would like to sever all ties with Chu Mo—Azure Dragon Hall does not wish to involve itself in your affairs, let's each go our own way. However, using his identity as a qualified businessman, he couldn't do that. Others may underestimate this ordinary general's grandson, but Wang Dafa, who knows Chu Mo's background, dares not underestimate him.

Now, he had yet another reason to not be at odds with Chu Mo—the elixir!

His incurable disease attacks every month or two, causing an unbearable pain. There have even been a few times when Wang Dafa contemplated ending his life!

No one knows the misery of a flare-up, except him... no one. So much so, that Wang Dafa has been flaunting his wealth for years, like a nouveau riche, not merely to conceal his real identity. Even more... it's an outlet!

An outlet resulting from the soul-twisting pain caused by his disease!

If he were to live like a normal person, he would have probably suffocated to death.

So, whether it's this young man possessing an extraordinary medical skill who recognized his illness at one glance, or the boy's enigmatic and powerful master who discreetly observed him and discovered his problem, it doesn't really matter.

What's important is that Prince Xia Jing, who no one could cure, has fully recovered!

This is what intrigued Wang Dafa the most.

Wang Dafa looked at Chu Mo with eyes full of complicated emotions.

Chu Mo, on the other hand, looked at Wang Dafa calmly with clear eyes. Like a stream flowing from the mountains in the fall, clear and cold. Even though it's shallow enough to see through, it still made one hesitant to touch.

Wang Dafa slapped his forehead and suddenly laughed, "My cook, who came out of the palace's imperial kitchen, has produced a few dishes that the emperor himself has praised. Don't you want to try, young brother?"

At that moment, Chu Mo also smiled and nodded, "Okay!"

The dinner was rather enjoyable for both of them.

It seemed that Wang Dafa had figured things out, had let go of his pretensions, talking to Chu Mo like an old friend about Azure Dragon Hall as well as unintentionally revealing some details about things happening in the Vermilion Bird Association.

Chu Mo in return, casually mentioned his master and the little mountain where he practiced his cultivation.

Human growth truly requires experience. No one is naturally cunning, and no one is naturally deceptive.

A 14-year-old boy aspires to always maintain his innocent heart, and have his blood running hot. But, this is impossible.

Becuase this world does not belong to any one person.

Even Demon Lord, who is now powerful enough to be invincible in this world, isn't he still following some rules of this world? Otherwise, he could just boldly walk into the gate of the major factions like Longevity Heaven and ask for whatever medicinal herbs he needs.

Simply wipe out anyone who refuses to comply!

Isn't that easier?

In the end, everyone is human, not demon!

No matter how you play around with calculations or your private interests, in the end, you still have to be humane.

Although Demon Lord did not teach Chu Mo the cultivation methods of the Spirit Realm and the Immortal Realm, Chu Mo could sense that maintaining a certain degree of purity and transparency in his thoughts is a very important thing!

Wang Dafa had a decent alcohol tolerance, and after having many glasses with Chu Mo, he didn't seem drunk; just a little tipsy.

Chu Mo, with his youthful energy and unique physical constitution that exceeds most people in this world, didn't show a strong reaction to the alcohol.

Later, having had enough food and wine, Chu Mo said goodbye and left, leaving a bottle of pills in front of Wang Dafa before leaving, "Brother, take these if you trust me, one every 3 days. There are 10 in total. After a month, your headache should be cured."

During this time, Chu Mo had repeatedly studied his jade refining remedies, and finally found out that it must be the benefit of that big green stone. Since it had absorbed a lot of ingredients for the elixirs, the elixirs would appear quickly as long as he meditated on their purpose in jade space.

For Chu Mo, the disease of Wang Dafa was not much of an issue.

Wang Dafa stared at the bottle of elixir before him, a complicated look flashing in his eyes, he looked up at Chu Mo: "Do you really trust me that much, young brother?"

"I should say, it requires you, brother, to trust me." Chu Mo smiled shyly: "This elixir, ten pills are a complete course. If you miss any of them, they won't have any effect on your condition. So... if you don't trust me and you take one for testing, well..."

Chu Mo did not continue speaking, but Wang Dafa was somewhat angry, "What kind of person do you think I am? Could I do such a thing? You are offering a medicine that others can't find even if they had a lot of gold, how could I doubt you?" But inside he cursed: Little jerk, why do you smile so shyly? Don't you know that you still have an adult's face? You saw through my mind and it's really shameless!

But who is shameless cannot be determined, Wang Dafa had indeed thought of hiring a renowned doctor to study it. He was not afraid of Chu Mo harming him, but deep in his heart, he didn't quite trust Chu Mo fully.

As a result, Chu Mo's statement once again cornered him while also triggering some sentiment within him: is this really a fourteen-year-old boy?

"I was being overly suspicious. After you take it, you'll understand its effect." Chu Mo said: "I'm always good to my friends."

Wang Dafa took a deep breath and said, "Alright, since you've put it that way, I'll also assure you! Yanhuang city...even the whole of Great Xia realm, does not belong to his Vermilion Bird Association! If they go too far, Azure Dragon Hall will never sit back and do nothing."

Only at this moment, did the elder-like authoritative aura rooted in Wang Dafa surface.

A word from an important person is worth nine sacred tripods, they keep their word. Very few people break their promise unless absolutely necessary, especially those elites.

Chu Mo saluted Wang Dafa, "Brother's kindness is appreciated, Chu Mo hereby thanks you in advance!"

Wang Dafa waved his hand and said solemnly, "Azure Dragon Hall can ask them not to be too excessive, but some secretive activities are inevitable."

Thinking of the current state of Miao Yi Niang and Chu Yan, Chu Mo laughed, and said, "It doesn't matter. Azure Dragon Hall wouldn't send out experts of Understanding Heart Realm, would they?"

Wang Dafa was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "Impossible, you think Understanding Heart Realm experts are so easy to command?"

Chu Mo smiled and nodded, "That's good! Brother, take care!"

Chu Mo was very pleased, as the results of this visit to Wang Dafa exceeded his expectations. However, it was likely Wang Dafa...wasn't as delighted. (To be continued.
