Chapter 751: Chapter 750: Avalanche on the Snow Mountain, Spirit Jade Appears
"What a beautiful and fragrant red flower, is this a red lotus?" Holding the red blossom in his hand, Yusuf Zuck gently inhaled its scent, and was instantly enveloped in its fragrance. The most fragrant flower he had ever smelled was jasmine, and he thought jasmine had the most magnificent scent when it bloomed, but now, the red flower in his hand was even more fragrant than jasmine, and the aroma was so intense it was almost intoxicating.
"This isn’t a red lotus, this is the ’Drunken Beauty’. The woman’s eyes sparkled, seemingly as desperate to obtain the red flower in Yusuf’s hand, and after taking a deep breath, "Mr. Campbell, can you give me this flower? Or perhaps I could trade it for other treasures!"
"Spirit Jade, superior or top-grade, do you have any?" Yusuf asked directly.
"I have lower and middle-grade, but I didn’t bring them with me." The woman shook her head.
"Then forget it." Yusuf flicked his wrist, and the ’Drunken Beauty’ was tossed into his ring.
The woman’s face changed, and she hastily pressed, "Mr. Campbell, I can trade other items for it, what else do you need?"
"I only want superior or top-grade spirit jade, oh, and I see another one over there!" Yusuf, while speaking, glanced into the distance, and to his surprise, spotted another red flower, ’Drunken Beauty’, about three hundred meters above him. A large stone obscured most of it, yet a hint of red was visible.
"Haha." Before the two could exclaim their surprise, Yusuf had already leaped next to the newly found flower and continued to pluck it, roots and all.
Although he didn’t know what it was, seeing how anxious the two were, Yusuf knew the flower must be rare and very useful.
The woman and man hurried after him, their faces filled with greed as they eyed the ’Drunken Beauty’ in Yusuf’s hand.
"Can you tell me what this flower is used for?" Yusuf suddenly asked.
"Then, would you trade one with me? I’ll trade you my ’Poetry Collection’ for it." The woman suddenly produced a thread-bound book.
"Poetry Collection? For cultivation? Does it contain acrostic poems? Does it possess an Unparalleled Cultivation Method?" Yusuf’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
"It doesn’t have that." The woman shook her head, and gently ran her fingers through her hair, adding faintly, "This is the collection of poems I’ve written. All the poems I’ve written are in there, and in all the world, this is the only copy I’ve hand-copied myself!"
Yusuf felt puzzled, writing poems? What did she mean? But it seemed the woman was quite full of herself.
The man beside her couldn’t stand it anymore and said stiffly, "Messiah Palmer is a master poet of the Mainland. Her poetry is now used as a textbook by the empire and the Saint Dragon Pavilion!"
"Pfft—" Hearing the man’s explanation, Yusuf almost spat blood. F*ck, a female scholar, a literary bitch writing poems and music!
"I am sorry, but I’m not interested in poetry or the like. When I was young, my home had many such books, but I used them all to wipe my ass, sorry, sorry, farewell!" Yusuf struggled to hold back his laughter, what a ridiculous situation, a poetess who was so arrogantly proud.
But she did have some beauty, probably with many admirers and worshippers on the Mainland, right?
In any world, there is no lack of fan effects. Write a good poem, and you get put on a pedestal.
But Yusuf was a rough man, a very, very rough one, so talking to him about poetry was like playing the lute to a cow.
As Yusuf walked away confidently, the woman nearly choked on her own blood. Bryson Campbell didn’t know she was Messiah Palmer? Didn’t know she was the greatest female talent on the Saint Dragon Continent for the last eight hundred years? The most famous itinerant poetess?
Who in the world didn’t know Messiah Palmer?
Although her cultivation level wasn’t that impressive, her poetry was widely circulated, and wherever she went, she was welcomed as a guest of honor.
Even though the Mainland prized martial arts, literati still had their place, and besides, she was talented in both literature and martial arts. The former emperor himself had granted her an audience, and she had composed a poem for him.
Saint Dragon Pavilion Master Wen Ping had discussed scriptures and philosophies with her, yet Bryson Campbell claimed to use poetry books to wipe his ass?
Disgusting, utterly disgusting, vulgar, extremely vulgar.
"Hey, junior brother..." Just as Yusuf Zuck continued climbing upwards, Grayson Martin’s voice suddenly came from below the mountain. Because of the echo, his voice was especially loud.
"Damn it, who’s that bastard? Does he want to die?" Messiah Palmer genuinely spat blood this time. Bryson Campbell and his senior brother were so fucking crude and stupid; didn’t they know this was a snowy mountain? On the snowy mountain, one must not shout loudly because it could cause a snow...
With a "boom," there was an avalanche. When the cracking sound came from the mountain top, the entire sky turned dark in an instant, giant blocks of snow cascaded down from the peak.
The force of nature always exceeds that of humans. Even if humans were to cultivate immortality and question the ways of the Dao, they would still be powerless in the face of natural disasters like floods, landslides, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, meteorite strikes, and so forth.
An avalanche might seem like just a mass of snow crashing down, but this avalanche was different from ordinary ones because the snow blocks were mixed with stones. With the mountain peak being covered with loose rocks and giant boulders, once the avalanche started, the stones followed suit, tumbling down!
"Run..." Messiah Palmer cast aside any pretense of poise and elegance, fleeing in terror at such a speed that she nearly wet her pants.
Grayson Martin, from the foot of the mountain, had never imagined that his shout would trigger an avalanche, so he too panicked and flew high into the sky, retreating quickly.
Yusuf Zuck was right at the center of the avalanche, so before he could even think of running, he was instantly buried by tumbling snow. He felt the whole mountain quaking, and as it was covered by the snow and rocks, he too was pressed down beneath it.
"Haha, spirit jade, I found spirit jade!" As the avalanche subsided and tranquillity was restored, one of the men with Messiah Palmer, who hadn’t managed to flee, burst out from the aftermath holding a top-grade spirit jade in his hand.
"Holy shit, so much spirit jade!" Grayson Martin, floating in the air, was also wide-eyed as following the end of the avalanche, the mountainside revealed numerous purple spirit jade pieces that were so dazzling from a distance!
"Jackpot!" Messiah Palmer and the other male cultivator charged downwards without hesitation.
After a moment’s thought, Grayson Martin also dove down. He didn’t go to save Yusuf Zuck because he knew that such a small avalanche couldn’t kill that Bryson Campbell.
Messiah Palmer quickly picked up seven or eight purple spirit jades, including one that was top-grade, one high-grade, and the rest either mid or low-grade.
The other two male cultivators had similar luck, each picking up around seven or eight pieces.
Grayson Martin wasn’t so fortunate, only finding mid and low-grade ones.
All in all, there were around a hundred or so, and the group of four quickly collected all the exposed spirit jades.
However, that was just what lay on the surface; there were likely still scattered pieces of spirit jade under the snow.
With a "bang," as the four of them continued their search, Yusuf Zuck finally burst out from under the snow, cursing continuously as he emerged!
"Junior brother, stop complaining, come pick some spirit jade. Over a hundred pieces have already been unearthed, there must be more!" Grayson Martin called out to Yusuf Zuck, waving him over.
"What? Over a hundred pieces of spirit jade?" Yusuf Zuck was astounded!
