Chapter 1295 Little Sword Cultivator
Chapter 1295 Little Sword Cultivator
Chen Zhou's expression showed slight excitement, but he immediately suppressed his joy and nodded calmly: "Mm."
His attitude was somewhat cold, but Qinghe was already used to it and knew what kind of person he was, so she didn't say anything more.
Just as he was about to make a few casual remarks and leave, his gaze suddenly sharpened. He stared at Chen Zhou for a moment, scrutinizing him closely, and exclaimed in surprise:
"Senior Brother Chen, you...you've broken through?"
Originally, Senior Brother Chen and Senior Brother Wang were about the same level, both at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
But now, Senior Brother Wang's aura is even thicker and deeper, like an unfathomable abyss, and a powerful pressure is faintly emanating from him, clearly indicating that he has reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm!
I had heard before that Senior Brother Chen had received a celestial inheritance before he began his secluded cultivation.
It seems that the inheritance has been passed down to my senior brother, which is why he was able to break through some barriers.
Chen Zhou had been silently waiting for Qinghe to examine him closely. Now, hearing this exaggerated exclamation, his expression clearly brightened considerably, yet he maintained his composure and nodded slightly.
"Hmm, a slight breakthrough."
His voice was calm, as if it were a trivial matter, and then he changed the subject:
"I'm not going to say anything more. I still need to get a piece of Canglan wood to refine the main body of the puppet. When you go back, please tell my senior brother that I won't go to see him."
"Azure wood?"
Qinghe looked troubled, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, seemingly finding it difficult to speak.
Chen Zhou noticed his unusual expression and asked in confusion:
"Just say what you have to say. Don't beat around the bush. Is it because Senior Brother Gu isn't here, or do I really have to go and talk to him myself?"
"no……"
Qinghe cautiously observed his expression and saw that his gaze was deep and serious, as if he were about to get angry. She immediately dared not hide anything any longer and hurriedly said:
"Senior Brother Chen, actually, the Canglan wood is gone. No, it's not that it's gone, it's just that we're not sure if there's any left."
At this point, his voice softened considerably: "If there's any left, I'll take it and send it to you, senior brother. If there's nothing left, please don't be offended."
Chen Zhou scoffed: "I thought it was something serious. I don't need much. Just tell me who needs it, and I'll talk to them and ask them to spare a portion for me."
Qinghe hesitated for a moment: "It was...it was Jiang Han. He came to ask for the treasure, so Senior Brother Gu arranged for me to fetch it and deliver it."
"Jiang Han?"
Chen Zhou felt the name sounded familiar, but couldn't quite place it: "Who is that? Hmm? Not someone from our Thousand Machines Pavilion?"
The next moment, he suddenly realized what he meant, and his voice turned cold: "What do you mean? You want me to wait until an outsider has finished using it before I can use it? When have the things of our Thousand Machine Pavilion ever been reserved for outsiders?"
Qinghe hurriedly explained, "No, this is Senior Brother Gu's idea. He wants to send the things to Jiang Han first."
Chen Zhou's voice fell completely, tinged with anger:
"Senior Brother Gu won't do either. You must take me to find Jiang Han. I'll go talk to him myself!"
The items in Qianji Pavilion are always prioritized for use by its own people; only the items that are no longer needed are sold.
Who exactly is this Jiang Han, that he dares to snatch the treasure he has his eye on!
"Senior Brother Chen, don't be in such a hurry."
Qinghe quickly grabbed Chen Zhou and recounted Wang Yanshi's crushing defeat.
"Even Senior Brother Wang was no match for this person. He lost all his possessions, including his four puppets and his natal spirit treasure. You must not act rashly, or you will regret it too late if you fail!"
His words sounded like advice, but they sounded more like stirring up trouble.
As expected, upon hearing this, Chen Zhou's expression turned even colder, and his eyes flashed with anger:
"Hmph, so it was him."
"But even if someone is strong at the early stage of Nascent Soul, so what? Wang Yanshi is already weak, yet he still insisted on creating elite puppets. He deserved to lose."
"But I'm not that fool Wang Yanshi. Do you think I'll lose?"
He and Wang Yanshi took completely opposite paths.
Wang Yanshi attempted to use the large to reduce the small and the point to break the surface, wanting to create an unprecedentedly powerful puppet and thereby touch the Great Dao of the Machine Immortal.
He, on the other hand, overwhelmed the world with an endless sea of machines, and swept away all enemies with countless puppets.
Wang Yanshi lost because he wasn't strong enough individually and was crushed by that sword cultivator.
He, on the other hand, could simply overwhelm that insignificant swordsman with countless puppets.
"This……"
Qinghe hesitated for a moment: "Senior Brother Gu instructed us to treat Fellow Daoist Jiang well..."
Mentioning Senior Brother Gu only fueled Chen Zhou's anger. To make him use things that outsiders didn't want was an utter disgrace!
He didn't want to waste any more words and said directly, "Lead the way, and today I will show you just how invincible my newly acquired inheritance truly is."
He and Wang Yanshi were already at odds, so how could he miss such a good opportunity to gain the upper hand?
Moreover, since Jiang Han had provoked him, he couldn't let it go so easily.
"Lead the way quickly, and don't speak up for that kid anymore."
Hearing this, Qinghe couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Senior Brother Chen is clearly about the same strength as Senior Brother Wang, I really don't know where he gets his confidence from."
Judging from what Senior Brother Wang said earlier, Jiang Han might still have a killer move he hasn't used yet. He's already able to suppress Senior Brother Wang with this move. Is Senior Brother Chen really not afraid at all?
It's really strange. What kind of inheritance did Senior Brother Wang receive that makes him so confident?
Qinghe sighed and said, "Alright then, I'll take you there now, but let me remind you again, Jiang Han has many tricks up his sleeve, so you'd better be careful."
Last time, when Senior Brother Wang was about to set off, he was also full of vigor and extremely confident.
But when Senior Brother Wang returned, his miserable appearance clearly showed that he had lost all his spirit.
That was a terrible experience; he was just like a young scholar being bullied by bad guys, filled with fear, dread, and resentment. Even now, thinking about it still makes his heart pound.
"Don't worry, I have my own methods."
Chen Zhou didn't take it to heart, but his arrogance only grew stronger.
Junior Brother Qinghe was unaware of the terrifying nature of that inheritance, so he naturally wouldn't blame the other party.
Once he uses his methods to forcefully suppress Jiang Han, his junior brother will realize how ridiculous his words were.
