Borrowing a sword

Chapter 183 Descending the Mountain to Slay the Demon
Medicine Mountain, Liu Mansion.

Another steward from the outer sect also had his own troubles, which also stemmed from Chu Huaixu.

Deacon Liu Tianfeng pushed open the door, glanced at his son Liu Chengqi, who was drunk and passed out on the table, and frowned slightly.

"Are you planning to live this kind of decadent life every day?" he couldn't help but scold.

Liu Chengqi lay half-lying on the table, stroking the jade pot with his hand, without making any response.

Deacon Liu wanted to say a few more words of criticism, but in the end he could only sigh.

After emerging from the Cold Pool Secret Realm, his beloved son became like this, and he began to give up on himself.

Especially after watching Chu Huaixu rise to prominence, transforming from a mere pseudo-spiritual embryo into the leader of Xuanhuang, Liu Chengqi felt even more resentful.

That day in the dungeon, the father and son had examined Chu Huaixu's spirit embryo.

Although we do not know what kind of opportunity lies beneath the Cold Pool Secret Realm, it must be a great fortune!

Liu Tianfeng sat down beside his beloved son and said:

“Chengqi, I hope you can understand this. Judging from Chu Huaixu’s performance in the Eastern Continent Competition, he is excellent in both comprehension and temperament.”

"He even mastered the Daoist Canon, which may be his greatest transformation."

"Even without the opportunity at the bottom of the cold pool, he would still have achieved something."

"Otherwise, the Sixth Elder wouldn't have valued him so much."

“You shouldn’t think that everything he has today is because of that Cold Pool Secret Realm, and you shouldn’t think that he stole your good fortune.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Chengqi suddenly went berserk, shoving the jade pot and wine cups off the table with a shattering sound.

He reeked of alcohol and shouted, "How can you say it's not stealing my good fortune!"

"If it weren't for your sycophancy and desire to please the Sixth Elder, and your listening to Niu Yuanshan's suggestion to give the jade tablet fragments to the two of them, how could they have entered the secret realm!"

"If he hadn't gone in, everything in that secret realm could very well have been mine!"

"Besides the two of them, I'm the only one left inside; everyone else was kicked out long ago!"

Liu Tianfeng's expression changed, but since he had a son late in life and his wife had also passed away, he doted on his son even more.

After taking a deep breath, he patiently said, "The Cold Pool Secret Realm has now been transformed by inner sect cultivators into a training ground. You are welcome to go and explore it yourself."

"You were trapped in the illusion for too long that day, so you were eventually kicked out."

Liu Chengqi still wouldn't listen and roared, "If it hadn't been those two who went in that day, but instead the disciples we had arranged from the beginning, I probably wouldn't have chosen that path when I was initially selecting the entrance!"

"Even if I fail to succeed that day, I will have another chance in the future!"

"As long as the opportunity remains, it will be mine!!!"

"It's all because of your sycophancy that Chu Huaixu has benefited everyone!"

"You shouldn't have listened to that bastard Niu Yuanshan's suggestion, and you shouldn't have given them the fragments of the Pill King Token!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Tianfeng was speechless.

Actually, he also regretted it a bit; he shouldn't have listened to Niu Yuanshan's suggestion that day.

But ultimately, he didn't take a pseudo-spiritual fetus seriously at all.

The prevailing thinking at the time was: the less talented he was, the more it proved that he had an extraordinary background.

Who would have thought that it was a hidden dragon lurking in the abyss?

In the end, Liu Tianfeng didn't say anything more.

He simply said, "Tomorrow I will lead a team down the mountain to complete the mission of vanquishing the demon."

"Chu Huaixu will also be with the team."

“Since you are so obsessed, I will find an opportunity to ask him what he obtained at the bottom of the cold pool.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Chengqi remained silent.

During the Eastern Continent Grand Competition, Chu Huaixu attended every single one of his matches, always standing in a very corner.

He had also wondered many times if the damaged spiritual embryo were to recover, would he also shine on the stage?
What made him feel even worse was that Chu Huaixu had defeated his opponents in the previous matches with a single move, using the [Eight Desolate Dragons] technique that he had taught him!
It’s simply heartbreaking!
The following day, Chu Huaixu and Han Shuangjiang arrived at the designated time outside the disciples' courtyard. Deacons Liu Tianfeng and Mo Qingmei arrived early.

They will be bringing a total of 20 outer disciples with them when they descend the mountain this time.

These outer disciples were all quite excited when they saw Chu Huaixu.

Being able to complete the sect's mission alongside the leader of Xuanhuang will certainly give me something to talk about when I return.

Because Chu Huaixu performed so exceptionally well in the arena, everyone felt inexplicably at ease when they saw him.

He was clearly only at the first level of cultivation.

Once everyone had arrived, Mo Qingmei said with a smile, "Senior Brother Liu, you have more experience leading teams than I do, why don't you give them a talk?"

"it is good."

Deacon Liu looked at everyone and said, "The exorcism at Chixi Ravine was a request for help from the Sword Sect disciples that our Daoist sect received."

“A disciple of the Sword Sect named Zhao Qianfeng, while traveling down the mountain, discovered traces of evil cultivators in Chixi Ravine.”

"He followed them all the way, and after subduing one person, he forced him to reveal that there was a heretical altar hidden in the Chixi Stream."

"He couldn't handle it alone, so he asked our Taoist sect for help."

"Today I am taking you down the mountain for training. Remember to prioritize your own safety and do not be reckless."

"If you can't beat them, then run!"

"Our Taoist sect is large and powerful; we can simply return to our clan for assistance."

"To eradicate evil completely is the tenet of our Taoist sect in descending the mountain to vanquish demons."

"But the premise is still to put your own life first, do you all understand?" he shouted.

"Yes, Steward Liu!" the crowd replied.

Chu Huaixu had heard before when he played "Borrowing Swords" that the beginner sect missions in the Taoist sect were the simplest.

Players are basically just following along.

For this instance of exorcising demons in Chixi Ravine, the Daoist sect dispatched two deacons and 20 outer disciples.

So, basically, sending half the people will be more than enough.

The main theme of the chart is stability.

The Taoist sect is powerful; we can simply crush them!

"Knowing that the evil cultivators are hiding in the Chixi Ravine and have even set up an altar, that saves us a lot of trouble," Chu Huaixu thought to himself.

In this way, it won't take too much time, and we can probably go and return quickly.

The group then followed the two stewards down the mountain.

Inside the Beast Academy near the foot of the mountain, a man led a black cloud steed.

This horse is a hybrid of a mythical beast and an ordinary horse.

It doesn't possess much strength, not even qualifying as a low-level spirit beast, but it excels in speed, capable of traveling a thousand miles a day. Moreover, it is quite intelligent, easy to control, and extremely easy to tame.

You only need to exude the aura of a cultivator, and it will immediately know how strong you are, and it will immediately become extremely obedient.

Chu Huaixu thought that this thing's intelligence was probably similar to that of a Border Collie.
After a long journey, the group soon arrived at the designated meeting point.

The Sword Sect disciple named Zhao Qianfeng was already waiting there.

He wore a token of an outer disciple of the Sword Sect on his waist, indicating that he possessed the cultivation level of the fourth level of the second realm.

His appearance wasn't particularly distinctive, except that his eyebrows were a light color and sparse, making him look like a man without eyebrows.

Along the way, Chu Huaixu was actually quite worried.

He wasn't afraid of encountering any danger on this trip; he was simply afraid that Han Shuangjiang would trigger her own Qi Luck Saint Body, causing everyone to fall into some secret realm along the way.

That's why he chose this task himself, instead of letting Han Shuangjiang choose it.

If that's the case, the Sword Sect disciple waiting here will feel that a dignified Daoist sect is so unpunctual!
They might even stand him up.
