I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

Chapter 32

I Just Thought Of Something Funny

“Master, why are you smiling so… happily?”

Thousand Autumn Valley.

First Elder Lei Shao’s residence.

Compared to the towering Moon Pavilion, Lei Shao’s residence was much simpler. It was only the size of a courtyard house and was at most comparable to the residences of the high-level disciples.

Of course, this did not mean that there was a problem with the Sixth Elder’s lifestyle. It was purely because Lei Shao was so obsessed with the sword that if the place was too big, he would not be able to take care of it at all.

Bai Canghai secretly came to his master’s residence to bid farewell to Lei Shao.

Feng Xia’s arrival had attracted a lot of attention and made the matter of him leaving the sect becoming less eye-catching.

However, as soon as Bai Canghai arrived at the Zhenmu Courtyard, he saw his master crouching at a corner of the wall as if he was peeping at something. His face showed a rather wretched expression…

Erm, a rather unusual smile.

At the very least, he had never seen Lei Shao smile like this since he became his master’s disciple more than 20 years ago!

“I wasn’t smiling.”

After a few moments, Lei Shao shook his head and came back to his senses. He smiled and said, “I was just thinking about some happy stuff and lamenting about the past. I wasn’t really smiling.”

Bai Canghai could not help feeling curious and asked, “Master, what did you think about?”

“When I fought with fellow practitioner Feng, I deliberately stayed away from everyone’s sight. I also messed up the traces of the battle at the scene, making it impossible for anyone to deduce fellow practitioner Feng’s strength.”

As he spoke, the corners of Lei Shao’s mouth subconsciously curled up. “And that sissy Liu Chuanyuan must have gone to check out the battle site afterward. When he finds nothing, what do you think he will do next?”

Bai Canghai nodded thoughtfully and recalled Sixth Elder Liu Chuanyuan’s way of doing things. He thought about it seriously and analyzed it carefully. After a moment, he said carefully, “Sixth Elder has always been extremely cautious. If he can’t determine Senior Feng’s strength, he will definitely send someone to check on it and will try to ask Senior Feng to join him.”

“Then what if he’s unable to find out anything even after checking on it? Or if he thinks that fellow practitioner Feng is a greater threat… than he expected?”

“If that’s the case…”

Bai Canghai immediately understood and cried out, “Based on Sixth Elder’s usual style, he will definitely take action personally to eliminate all possibilities. So… Sixth Elder went straight to look for Senior Feng?”

“Hahahaha, that’s right… Cough, cough, cough!”

After laughing loudly for a while, Lei Shao suddenly coughed violently and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning ashen. “From yesterday to today, Liu Chuanyuan has appeared around me a total of seven times.”

Bai Canghai was shocked and hurriedly went forward to support him. “Master, when did you get injured?!”

“Cough cough! I was accidentally injured when I sparred with fellow practitioner Feng. It’s fine, it’s fine!” Lei Shao coughed and waved his hand. He could not help but laugh loudly again. However, he also coughed violently again thereafter.

“That sissy Liu Chuanyuan came seven times because he wanted to see what happened to me. Fortunately, my acting skills are superb and I didn’t let him see that I was injured…”

Bai Canghai was speechless. “…”

He suddenly felt like he was getting to know his master again.

It turned out that his master, whom he always knew as being rough and bold, actually had such a sinister side to him!

“If Sixth Elder goes to look for Senior Feng, I’m afraid he would be…”

Thinking of Feng Xia’s “real” cultivation, Bai Canghai could not help but mourn for the Sixth Elder in his heart.

He shook his head and took out another precious pill. Without a second thought, he fed it to Lei Shao. At the same time, he became even more curious.

“Everything pointed to the fact that Master and Sixth Elder had an extremely good relationship back then. It’s just that later on, it seems that they became strangers because of a woman…”

Bai Canghai had also secretly investigated this matter regarding his master.

After all, in his opinion, if the two of them could reconcile in light of the current situation, it would undoubtedly be a great thing for the Thousand Autumn Valley!

Unfortunately, the events of the past seemed to have been erased by an invisible hand.

It seemed that someone wanted to hide the truth about what happened in the past. No matter how Bai Canghai investigated, he could not find any useful information. The only thing he found was a name.

Mu Yuan.

This seemed to be the name of the woman who destroyed the relationship between Lei Shao and Liu Chuanyuan.

However, after finding out about this name, Bai Canghai could not find any more information no matter how much he continued to investigate—it was as if this woman had never existed.

“Let’s not think about this anymore.”

Bai Canghai shook his head and threw all kinds of thoughts out of his mind.

“I hope Senior Feng’s appearance will turn the situation around for the Thousand Autumn Valley… However, I have to work harder as well.”

He took a deep breath at the thought and bowed deeply to the tall figure.

“Master, I’m here to bid you farewell today.”

…

Feng Xia’s plan could roughly be divided into three parts.

Part one, fishing.

Part two, reeling in.

Part three, beating up the fish.

Primeval Green Lotus!

The lotus bloomed twice!

Flowers bloomed and fell and bloomed again!

Boom, boom—

At this moment, Liu Chuanyuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His body could not help but tremble. He did not seem to have been attacked, but the divine light in his eyes was rapidly dimming.

The next moment.

“Pfff…”

Liu Chuanyuan spat out a mouthful of blood.

The whistling Spring and Autumn Sword Energy lost control and quickly dissipated like bubbles. At the same time, the oppressive darkness also dissipated, revealing the true appearance of the Moon Pavilion.

Compared to the crude taste of Lei Shao, the Moon Pavilion where Liu Chuanyuan lived was obviously much more exquisite and elegant.

The tables and chairs were carved from good wood and had intricate and detailed patterns on them. There was a screen placed across the room, embroidered with the picture of an elegant woman, although it was impossible to make out her features.

There were also jade pillars that supported the entire Moon Pavilion from the bottom up. Feng Xia counted that there were a total of 13 pillars.

There were also relief carvings on the jade pillars, of a figure dancing with a sword and the sword blooming with a brilliant light.

“You’re weaker than fellow practitioner Lei, but your sense of aesthetics is a hundred times better than him.”

Feng Xia nodded slightly and scanned his surroundings. In the end, his gaze landed on Liu Chuanyuan.

The man’s face twitched slightly, but his expression became even more solemn.

“Fellow practitioner… No, senior, you’re so powerful. You’ve already forged a Dao Platform, right? However, then why do you have to be involved in the vortex of our sect’s affairs?”

At the same time, he also understood…

He had been completely tricked by Lei Shao!

Unless Lei Shao was still at his peak, it was impossible for him to be a match for a Dao Platform Champion. The relaxed appearance which Lei Shao showed him earlier must be an act!

“If I said that I only happened to be passing by…”

Feng Xia shrugged and glanced at the attribute light balls on the ground. He smiled kindly and said, “Fellow practitioner Liu, will you believe me?”

Only a fool would believe you!

The corners of Liu Chuanyuan’s mouth twitched again before he nodded with difficulty.

“I believe you.”
