Chapter 524: Chapter 465 Big Shot’s Legitimate Child Treatment

Upon hearing Zhang Decheng’s words, Wang Zijia began carefully examining the small shield.

The size of a palm, pitch-black in color, perfectly round, it resembled a small arm shield. It was very exquisite.

Zhang Decheng then pointed to two jade talismans and said, "This one is a Great Teleportation Talisman. In times of crisis, you can directly activate it, and in a blink of an eye, you will be tens of thousands of miles away. Be careful and cautious. Even in the face of a Crossing Tribulation Major Repair, there’s a thirty to fifty percent chance of escape."

"The other one is a Fifth-Rank Talisman Treasure: The Sky Inquiry Sword! It can explode with the power of a Primordial Spirit peak attack. Currently, it can still be used at full strength three times."

Wang Zijia: "······"

Wang Zijia thought that this was already incredible, but these were merely appetizers!

Zhang Decheng pointed to the last object, resembling an Identity Order Symbol, and said, "This is a Communication Charm made by the Tower Master of Demon Suppressing Tower, given to me when I taught the younger generation of the Li Family many years ago. It’s similar to a regular Communication Charm, nothing special."

"However, this is a Communication Charm made by the Tower Master, which can be considered a spiritual connection. In times of crisis, you can activate it and receive support from the Tower Master once. I have cherished it until now, but now, its symbolic significance to me is greater than its utility, I might as well give it to you!"

Wang Zijia: "······"

’You’re even giving away favor from a Crossing Tribulation Big Shot, and you say it isn’t special?’

’Senior, by draining your coffers, you’re making me feel a bit embarrassed!’

’Are you planning on raising me like your grandson?’

’Are we that close now, that familiar?’

’Did I miss something somewhere?’

Zhang Decheng said, "Take these, with these, I will feel more at ease when you go out."

Wang Zijia: "······"

’This is what makes you feel more at ease?’

’So this is how the overbearing and arrogant disciples of the major sects are created!’

’But with these things, it really makes sense for them to be arrogant!’

’With these things, in the entire Spirit Suppressing Realm, except for some individual special places where people go to die, where can’t I go?’

’But why did things suddenly become so nice?’

As Wang Zijia mused, he took all the items and said, "Then I will take my leave!"

"Yes, just remember that your Rune Seed shouldn’t be shown to anyone else." At this point, Zhang Decheng paused and added with a sigh of resignation,

"After all, in our Spirit Suppressing Realm, a full seven thousand years have passed without anyone becoming an Immortal. The other six sects will not allow our sect to break this stalemate and become the dominant one."

"I understand!" After respectfully saluting Zhang Decheng, Wang Zijia exited.

Zhang Decheng then sat in his room, lost in thought for a long time. Eventually, he erupted into hearty laughter, got up, and left.

······

As soon as Wang Zijia left the Heavenly Inquiry Tower, he was blocked by someone again. It seemed that this person had been waiting for a long time and clearly knew that he was returning to the Heavenly Inquiry Tower today.

Just like the first time he came to the Heavenly Inquiry Tower, it was the same disciple that blocked his way.

The disciple bowed to Wang Zijia and said, "Junior Brother Wang, Martial Uncle Yuquan invites you!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zijia was helpless. He had noticed the disciple’s demeanor the previous day, it was apparent that he thought he had some inheritance of the Qinglian Sword Sect.

"Lead the way!"

Although he was speechless in his heart, considering the other party was an Infant God, a genius and young, with many connections in the sect, he couldn’t compare him with Yue Changqing.

As much as possible, it was better not to turn the relationship sour.

Of course, Wang Zijia wasn’t really afraid of him now, he just didn’t want to randomly make enemies in the sect.

······

The two, one in front and one behind, once again arrived at the bamboo grove filled with Spirit Bamboo. They traversed a narrow path paved with broken stones and finally came to the training field in the forest that they had visited before.

This time, Qu Yuquan wasn’t practicing his sword in a showy way in the open space.

That disciple led Wang Zijia past the open space and stopped at the edge of it, saying, "Junior Brother Wang, you go ahead. Martial Uncle has been waiting for a long time, I won’t go in!"

Wang Zijia saluted him, then walked towards the courtyard in the forest ahead.

Although there were Spirit Bamboos blocking the way between the courtyard and the training field, the distance was less than ten meters.

After passing through this last bamboo grove, they saw a bamboo building with green tiles embedded in the center of the bamboo sea.

A set-up like a farmhouse courtyard, surrounded by a fence, amidst the swaying bamboo grove, was very warm and elegant, having a great atmosphere.

At a glance, it was perfect for a retired Daoist!

At this moment, Qu Yuquan was sitting in the courtyard, having brewed tea for a while.

In the sea of Spirit Bamboo, an ordinary yet elegant small courtyard, an old Taoist calmly sipping tea······

Qu Yuquan had evidently figured out how to show off in a saintly manner, being impressive in public and aloof in private. He had understood the essence of being a saint and played it well!

Wang Zijia entered the courtyard, saluting respectfully while mentally sighing, "I’ve seen Martial Uncle Yuquan!"

"Junior Brother Wang, there’s no need for such formalities. Since you already have the strength of a False Infant and the Tower Master has acknowledged you, let’s regard each other as equals!" Qu Yuquan gestured towards the opposite side and said, "Sit!"

"Then I will take liberty!" Wang Zijia didn’t decline much. To him, who was not familiar with this person, he just needed to give enough courtesy and respect.

There was no need to be overly obsequious or overly humble.

After both of them sat down, they quietly enjoyed their tea. No one immediately spoke, but they all knew why they were there.

After sipping his tea for a while, Wang Zijia straightforwardly said, "Brother Yuquan, I genuinely do not have an inheritance from the Qinglian Sword Sect."

"A spiritual object!" Qu Yuquan suddenly spoke indifferently, "A spiritual object suitable for you, I only care about the Sword Dao, I won’t ask about anything else!"

"Ah!" Wang Zijia sighed, "I really don’t have one. If I did, I would’ve taken it out long ago, there’s no need to hold on to it until now. This is an opportunity for mutual advantage."

"Whether you believe me or not, when I say I don’t have it, I truly mean it! If you invite me to talk a hundred times or even offer a Seventh Grade Immortal Treasure in exchange, I still wouldn’t have it."

Qu Yuquan stared at Wang Zijia for a while, who met his gaze without evasion. His look was honest and forthright.

After gazing at each other for a long time, Qu Yuquan’s hopeful expression darkened. He said, "Forget it. It was always too much to hope for."

Seeing this, Wang Zijia opened his mouth, "Senior Brother, did you achieve your foundation using the Dao Consistency of the Qinglian Sword Sect?"

Qu Yuquan did not answer Wang Zijia’s question. Instead, his mind wavered, and a three-foot long, green-edged blade materialized.

His sword had reached the Fourth Grade, already a top-grade Magic Treasure!

A sharp, transcendent and worldly detached aura emanated from the sword.

Wang Zijia looked at the sword, nodded, and said, "I understand! It should be about eight or nine years, and then the anchor of the Qinglian World should be done."

"By that time, I suppose the ascension will be complete. Senior Brother, you can go to the Lower Realm and find it yourself."

At this point, Wang Zijia paused, "But you better not rush into the First Forbidden Area."

Qu Yuquan nodded shallowly, not very excited.

Seeing this, Wang Zijia no longer felt like putting a warm face on a cold butt. He decisively got up and said, "I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t bother you anymore!"

"Take care!" Qu Yuquan got up and offered a salute, indifferently.

Wang Zijia left the courtyard and went to the outdoor training ground above, where he let his mana surge and shot straight up into the sky.

Qu Yuquan watched the retreating light of Wang Zijia’s escape method and was stunned for a long time.

········

Upon returning to the courtyard, Wang Zijia didn’t leave immediately.

First, he pondered over the day’s events.

In fact, revealing some of his secrets was a necessary step. With his cultivation improving continuously, he definitely had to enter the Inner Sect and become a legitimate disciple of Wanyu Sect.

If the Outer Sect was managed as tightly as the Inner Sect, which was essentially like being under state surveillance, that’d be fine!

But it’s not!

The Inner Sect was very detailed in their understanding of their disciples.

During this process, he had to have someone help him distract the attention, otherwise everything would be investigated, and if more people knew about it, it would be even easier for the information to leak out.

The final point was the endless assassinations by the Devil Gate. Even the other Sects wouldn’t let him grow.

As for informing Zhang Decheng, that was also a result of his contemplation.

Aside from knowing him a bit, the most important point was that he had already submitted himself to the Head Teacher.

If there was no need to take this step, he would rather wait for some time, trying to make Gu Yuncheng become a primordial spirit and then have him take care of things on his behalf.

For instance, by becoming his Direct Disciple and entering the Inner Sect!

Finally, the most important thing was that he was a pure disciple of Wanyu, with legitimate lineage, and a lone warrior.

To climb up the ranks, as long as he possessed enough talent, everyone would be willing to train him!

Because there wouldn’t be too much conflict of interest!

There’s a big difference between getting a full reward for full merit, and getting a reward of fifteen for the merit of eight.

To take on some risks for this was inevitable.

After focusing on this for long in the courtyard, only after making sure nothing was overlooked, he seemed much more relaxed.

········

"Are you out of confinement?" In the evening, Xiang Feifei, who was just coming back home, saw Wang Zijia in the courtyard. She rushed up with a surprised look on her face.

Wang Zijia smiled, hugged the young girl, habitually reached out to touch her hair, and said, "Not yet, didn’t I tell you that I wouldn’t stay in confinement every day, I just came out to take a break and I’ll continue it tomorrow."

"Oh!" Xiang Feifei replied a bit disappointed, and then immediately cheerfully said,

"In these three days, many Inner Sect disciples from large families suddenly came to our Sect to set up shops. Jade Talisman Street is almost full of rented and sold stores. Are we going to take off?"

"They just came so suddenly, I have no idea why."

During the conversation, she tried to use some of the adjectives Wang Zijia often used.

Wang Zijia smiled and nodded, "You can handle these things on your own!"

"·······"

The two of them chatted in a casual and warm manner for a long time. It was close to sunset when Wang Zijia ate his dinner. He then went to Bai Qian and picked up the love poison elixir that he had recently made her work overtime to make.

Subsequently, he returned to the Underground Base, took out his Identity Card, and entered the Immortal God Illusion.

The square was still bustling. After strolling around the street stalls for a while, Wang Zijia entered the small circle.

"Have you heard that someone in the Sect is going to Cross the Tribulation?"

"Isn’t this old news? After Tian Yan and Qingling became God Monarchs, it’s only a matter of time before Senior Brother Yuebai of the Gu Family would do the same."

······
