Hu Shan’s face froze, then he began to wail, “All because of you, there was this woman who wanted to find you. I was afraid of not bringing you along with me, so she stabbed a hairpin into my shoulder, saying it was a gift for you…” Meng Chong’s gaze hardened. He asked, “What’s going on?”
“I have no idea. This hairpin is certainly not ordinary. If we try to remove it rashly, the injuries would be severe.”
Hu Shan sighed heavily, explaining what had happened in detail.
“Let’s go. I’ll meet her. I want to see if she’s tired of living!”
Meng Chong said grimly.
“What about this hairpin…”
Hu Shan pointed to the hairpin on his shoulder with a pained expression.
“This hairpin is indeed rather unusual.”
Meng Chong frowned. Clearly, the hairpin was the woman’s weapon, made of extraordinary material. If they didn’t know how to remove it properly, forcibly pulling it out would cause the hairpin to explode instantly and cause severe harm.
He scratched his head, saying, “I’m not good at dealing with these delicate situations. We should either find my eldest martial brother, or my master.”
Hu Shan’s face fell. “Young Master Xu is meditating on the Sword Dao. I don’t dare to disturb him. As for the elder…”
He didn’t dare to bother the elder with such a trivial matter.
No sooner had he spoken than a force entered his shoulder, pushing the hairpin out.
“Thank you, elder!”
Hu Shan was overjoyed.
Once the hairpin fell into Li Xuan’s hands, who then examined it and couldn’t help but admire the extraordinary craftsmanship involved in forging it.
The hairpin was not a single piece, but a combination of parts. It appeared solid and unified, yet it concealed mechanisms that could release force when struck. If one attempted to forcibly remove it, the contained power would burst forth and cause severe harm.
The material used for the hairpin was extremely extraordinary, capable of holding True Qi and True Yuan.
Of course, no matter how clever the hairpin, in the face of absolute strength, it was easy to take it out.
Li Xuan directly used his True Yuan to suppress the power in the hairpin, preventing it from exploding, and easily took it out.
“It’s a good thing. Take it.”
Li Xuan tossed the hairpin to Meng Chong.
“Master, this hairpin…It’s not suitable for me, a grown man. Give it to junior sister instead.”
Meng Chong accepted the hairpin with a look of distaste on his face.
“You’ll decide once you see her.”
Li Xuan laughed. Why was the woman who gave Meng Chong the hairpin doing so?
Could it be that she had fallen for Meng Chong?
“Alright!”
Meng Chong nodded and left the boat with Hu Shan.
The atmosphere on Canglan Island was lively.
Xu Yan had also finished contemplating on Sword Dao. As soon as Li Xuan saw him, his face lit up.
“Is Xu Yan grasping a new Sword Intent? And this Sword Intent seems not so simple!”
Although Xu Yan hadn’t fully grasped the Sword Intent, he had made some progress. The faint ambience of a gentle breeze around him wasn’t missed by Li Xuan.
“It won’t be long before I can grasp a new Sword Intent.”
Li Xuan looked forward to it.
He saw several Martial Arts scholars including Peng Yuan, and their panda-like appearance amused him.
“I see why Xu Yan coaxed these scholars to Chang Qing Pavilion. Looking at their dark circles, I can tell that they were pouring all their heart and energy into the Martial Arts. Their single-mindedness makes them easy to deceive.”
Li Xuan couldn’t help sighing.
All of them possessed a strength level of Grandmaster or above, especially Peng Yuan who was at the peak of a Great Grandmaster. Yet, even they bore dark circles around their eyes. These were clearly the result of long-term lack of sleep during a time of weak power, and they couldn’t be removed.
With the move of Chang Qing Pavilion to Canglan Island, these martial arts scholars were introduced to Alchemy, and all nearly went mad. They followed Su Lingxiu with flattering smiles and diligently helped with various tasks. They were eager to learn about Alchemy and unravel its mysteries.
The martial artists from the inner domain began to study the Martial Arts of Dahua once again, while Su Lingxiu had dissected the corpse of a Yinlou Pavilion martial artist and had a deep understanding of the inner domain martial artists.
The “Sky-Earth Bridge” of the Great Wasteland Warrior, how to replace it – after some research, they finally made progress.
Su Lingxiu managed to create a medical pill that could assist in solidifying meridians into “Sky-Earth Bridges”. Although they were just false “Sky-Earth Bridges”, they were able to allow inner domain warriors to truly practice the Martial Arts of Dahua.
Moreover, the method of conversion was also in the hands of Chang Qing Pavilion. Without the medicinal pill, it would be impossible to solidify meridians into “Sky-Earth Bridges”.
In this way, the position of Chang Qing Pavilion in Dahua would naturally be unshakeable.
However, there were both pros and cons. The disadvantage was that many strong men would target Chang Qing Pavilion in order to convert to the Martial Arts of Dahua, intending to force Chang Qing Pavilion to hand over the recipe of the pill, or even the method to manufacture the pill.
Of course, this so-called disadvantage was insignificant in the face of absolute power.
Meng Chong, who had been away for a few days with Hu Shan, finally returned. A woman in purple was trailing behind him.
She was gazing at Meng Chong with an admirative look that set Li Xuan for a baffling surprise.
A female simp?
Unexpectedly, even Meng Chong, the rough and tough bald man, also has admirers.
“One million spirit crystals, how about it, Meng Chong?”
The woman in purple spoke.
“I’m not short on money now!”
Meng Chong waved his hand.
“Two million spirit crystals!”
The woman in purple continued to raise the price.
Meng Chong was somewhat tempted, but he eventually shook his head and said, “You get out, I’m busy!”
Chang Qing Pavillion isn’t lacking in spirit crystals at present, therefore he naturally would not accept the woman’s hire.
“Hu Shan, what’s going on?”
Xie Lingfeng curiously pulled over Hu Shan to ask.
Xu Yan and the others also came over, the woman in purple looked suspicious.
“She wants to hire Meng Chong, to escort her to a place, but Meng Chong refused.”
Hu Shan also had an odd look on his face.
Xu Yan couldn’t help but recall when he first entered the inner domain. He accepted Du Yuying’s hire and earned his first batch of spirit crystals.
On the other side, the woman in purple kept increasing the price: “Three million spirit crystals!”
Xu Yan and the others couldn’t help but marvel. This woman was really rich!
Three million spirit crystals, and she didn’t even bat an eye.
“I’ve already said, I’m not accepting hires!”
Meng Chong frowned, reached out with his large hand, grabbed her by the shoulders, catapulted into the air and threw the woman in purple flying. However, not long after, the woman in purple ran back, her face flushed, and she appeared thrilled.
“Meng Chong, you’re so powerful!”
Meng Chong frowned and said, “If you don’t leave now, don’t blame me if I hit you!”
“If I don’t leave, you’ll just have to accept my hire. That place is a treasure spot. Although it’s somewhat dangerous, with your strength, you can easily break through.”
The woman in purple persisted.
Meng Chong rubbed his head in annoyance, “If you want me to agree, I won’t need the spirit crystals, unless you give me a treasure bag, otherwise, I won’t agree.”
A treasure bag, a true treasure in the inner domain. Meng Shushu hasn’t bought a single treasure bag for him to date.
In his view, the woman in purple certainly could not produce one.
Who would have thought, to his great surprise, the woman in purple actually fished a small bag from her bosom with a joyful exclamation: “No problem.”
A grey little bag, shaped like a toad.
Meng Chong was stunned. She actually gave him a treasure bag just to hire him?
His gaze fell on the treasure bag and he couldn’t help but be tempted. However, was there a scheme behind her persistence to hire him?
He began to hesitate.
“Well, here you go. Now can you accept my hiring?”
The woman in purple directly stuffed the storage bag into Meng Chong’s hand.
“Why must you hire me?”
Meng Chong drew in a deep breath and said seriously.
“Because, I like you!”
The woman in purple blushed as she spoke.
Meng Chong scratched his bald head, looking a little dumbfounded, “Just because of this?”
“Also, you are very strong, especially your physical defense which gives me a sense of security, you’re the most suitable to go to that place.”
The woman in purple said earnestly.
“I’ll think it over!”
Meng Chong looked at the treasure bag in his hand, full of temptation.
However, her intentions were unclear, and the place she was talking about was undoubtedly very dangerous.
“That place, the danger is not too great. With your strength, you can walk right through. Please agree to my request.”
The woman in purple stared at him pleadingly.
Meng Chong looked at his master, then at his senior brother, casting a querying glance.
Xu Yan opened his mouth to ask, “Who are you?”
The woman in purple looked at everyone, thought for a moment, and said, “My name is Zi Yun.”
Upon hearing this, Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan’s eyes widened in surprise..
