Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 7 The White-Clad Master
There's a kind of underhanded tactic called "Your dad found you a wife."

Pei Xia spent fifteen breaths deeply contemplating what a "wife" truly meant.

By the time he figured it out, Luo Xiaojin had already led Chen Guanhai far away.

"Such a huge bombshell, and they only told me about it after we got to Beishi City!"

Pei Xia gave Luo Xiaojin's retreating figure a disdainful middle finger, then rolled her eyes and looked up at the top of her head: "Li, steal her!"

"okay!"

Without saying a word, Lu Li clenched her right fist and pounded it three times, shouting, "Prove my divine power!"

biu!

Pei Xia couldn't see the top of her head, so she could only ask, "What did you touch?"

“Uh…” Lu Li opened her arms.

Her little face was filled with shock.

……

Beijing Normal University City is built around the mountain and is divided into four areas from the top of the mountain down.

At the summit of Luoshen Peak lies the imperial palace.

Near the foot of the mountain lies the inner city, where high-ranking officials and nobles reside.

The outer area is the neighborhood district, which is different from the eight neighborhoods of Beijing Normal University. It mainly consists of fixed shops and restaurants.

As for the outermost area, it is the outer city where ordinary people live, and it is also the largest area.

There is only one special place among them, namely the Zhangsheng Palace built around the waist of Luoshen Mountain.

As one of Emperor Da Ling's most trusted advisors, Zhang Shenggong, though not holding a position in the court, was recognized as having "high rank and great power."

Within the Palace of the Holy Master, there are twelve palaces. The palace master is dressed in white, and his cultivation is such that he can see the heavens and the earth. This is called the "Heavenly Consciousness Realm" and he is known as the "Holy Master in White Robes".

Luo Xiaojin and Chen Guanhai were Sui Baiyi's disciples.

After escorting Pei Xia to Beishi City, they concluded their mission and, after reporting back to their sect, came to pay their respects to their master as is customary.

The massive bronze gate, ten feet high, was perfectly sealed. On the terrace outside the gate, Luo Xiaojin and Chen Guanhai were kneeling on the ground, waiting.

The higher you climb, the colder it gets. A gust of wind blew by, and Luo Xiaojin, who was still injured, shivered slightly.

Chen Guanhai cautiously turned his head and gave her an inquiring look.

Luo Xiaojin gently shook her head: "It's nothing, just a minor injury, that..."

She didn't dare to say the whole thing.

Master's cultivation level is Heavenly Consciousness. As a cultivator, his connection with heaven and earth is already very close. His sensitivity has transcended the scope of the five senses, and he possesses what is called "divine consciousness".

A mere bronze door cannot conceal Luo Xiaojin's voice.

Fortunately, she and Chen Guanhai had a great understanding; as soon as they started talking, he knew what Luo Xiaojin meant.

His eyes replied, "."

Before going up the mountain, Chen Guanhai had already found a trustworthy family to settle the Lychee Girl in.

That girl absolutely could not be brought to the Holy Palace, not to mention that interfering in the "fresh fruit" matter would violate the Holy Palace's code of conduct.

People from Qinzhou were not allowed to set foot in the inner city, let alone ascend to the Palace of the Holy Master.

To be even more precise, in Beishi City, they couldn't even be called people. Even before the term "lychee" existed, they were simply referred to as "Qin goods."

The mountain wind was cold, and after waiting for half an incense stick's time, the bronze gate finally opened slightly, allowing people to pass through. A young man with an indifferent expression glanced outside and said, "Master has summoned you to come in."

Luo Xiaojin quickly replied, "Yes."

The two kowtowed heavily on the ground before standing up with their knees together.

Even though you can stand up, you still have to keep your head down and your waist bent.

After taking off their shoes, the two entered the palace through the crack in the door.

Although it was made of metal, Sui Baiyi's palace was not cold. Dozens of "strange objects" were arranged on both sides of the palace, constantly emitting warm air.

Luo Xiaojin was injured and had been exposed to the cold wind for a long time. When the temperature suddenly rose, she couldn't help but shiver.

The young man leading the way saw this and felt a mixture of disgust and contempt.

After walking through the long, empty hall, we finally arrived at the deepest part, under the bamboo futon.

On the prayer mat, Sui Zhiwo, dressed in white, slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing his two disciples, he smiled kindly: "You're back?" "Yes, Master."

When answering, one must not raise one's waist, but only half-raise one's head to pay homage to the Master.

Sui Zhi noticed the bandages on Luo Xiaojin's body: "Are you injured?"

Luo Xiaojin hesitated for a moment before answering, "I was injured by a fifth-level Su Master."

"Master Su..."

Sui Zhiwo twirled his fingertips: "Master Su, if you are not absolutely certain, you should not easily engage in combat with others."

Luo Xiaojin remained calm and reported in a deep voice, "This disciple was originally no match for him, but fortunately that person had another master, Su Shi, who intervened midway and turned the tide of the battle."

It's rare to see a vegetarian master, and it's even rarer to see two vegetarian masters fighting each other.

Sui Zhiwo smiled and didn't press the matter further. Instead, he comforted me, saying, "It was a tough battle. You must have had a hard time going to Canglu. I'll have someone send you some healing and blood-replenishing pills later."

"Thank you for the reward, Master..."

After Luo Xiaojin finished speaking, she tilted her head back but did not lower it, her lips pursed as if she still had something to say.

Sui waved me over: "Go ahead and speak freely."

Luo Xiaojin asked cautiously, "Master, have you ever heard of... the Calamity Pig?"

I don't know if it was just my imagination, but the empty metal palace seemed to suddenly darken for a moment.

On the bamboo futon, Sui Zhiwo shook his head with a smile: "I have been cultivating for sixty years and I have never heard of any 'calamity pig'... Alright, you have come a long way, go back and rest early."

Luo Xiaojin lowered her head and replied, "Yes."

But a surge of emotions welled up inside him.

The master said he had never heard of it.

But they didn't ask Luo Xiaojin where she heard it from.

Clearly, he didn't want to pay too much attention, which precisely proves that Sui knew I was aware of this treacherous creature.

Thinking back to the miserable state of Master Su Guohan yesterday...

This "calamity pig," along with Pei Xia, is probably not simple.

After Luo Xiaojin and Chen Guanhai both left the Bronze Palace.

Sui Zhi turned her head and gently cupped her face.

After a long silence, he looked at the young man below the steps: "In the sect, which other white-robed disciples are not in seclusion?"

The young man respectfully replied, "Han Baiyi, Xu Baiyi, Huangfu Baiyi."

"Tell me that I am in the palace waiting for them to come and discuss matters."

The young man quickly agreed and hurriedly left.

With no one else around, Sui Zhiwo's gaze turned cold.

"The Calamity Pig... the Calamity Pig... how did this Qin merchant know about the Calamity Pig?"

"Could it be that someone actually escaped?"

"Is it Wu Zhou of Xiaotianshan, the Empress of Yinhuahai, or Ru Tao of Liancheng Fire Vein?"

Sui Zhiwo frowned deeply, and after thinking for a while, his consciousness began to sting.

He knew that his thoughts had been detected by the calamity pig.

Shaking his head, Sui Zhiwo spat in annoyance, "Damn Su Shi."

……

Luo Xiaojin had no idea that her high and mighty master would utter such vulgar words as "fuck you."

She was returning to her residence with Chen Guanhai.

The Palace of the God of War was built around the mountainside, with many corridors exposed to the elements. The mountain wind blew, and Luo Xiaojin shivered again.

Chen Guanhai looked at her with concern: "?"

"No, it's not my injury that's the problem..."

Luo Xiaojin was also puzzled, but she wasn't sure.

She crossed her legs and tried rubbing them together, then muttered to herself, "It feels... a little strange, why does it feel cool..."
