Once Upon A Time, There Was A Spirit Sword Mountain

”...” Zhou Mumu was silent for a long time. She even forgot to eat the fruit in her hand as she stared at Wang Lu. In the end, she sighed with emotion. ”Sure enough, itʼs still the Wang Lu that I know!”

With that, she put down the fruit. ”Then what should we do in your opinion?”

Wang Lu said, ”There is a saying in the Western Continent: when the mountain does not come, I will go to the mountain. Since Senior Brother Zhan Ziye is in a state of emergency, or even death, shouldnʼt we as his teammates give a wreath or something?”

As he said that, Wang Lu fished out a ready-made wreath from his mustard seed bag with two lines of words on it. The first line read: A life without a wife, and the second line read: Sweet gay life in the afterlife.

Zhou Mumu took one look at it and said, ”... You even prepared a wreath for him? What kind of mess do you have in your mustard seed bag?”

Wang Lu raised his eyebrows and said, ”Actually, I also prepared one for you, Senior Sister…”

”Donʼt show it to me!”

In any case, under Wang Luʼs proposal, the four of them decided to go to Ten Thousand Arts Sect to find out.

It was really incredible if Zhan Ziye indeed met an unfortunate death. However, he was also not someone who would come late without any reason. Even if he was far from having any organizational sense of discipline, punctuality was the basic etiquette in life. As a lead disciple, he couldnʼt possibly have this thing.

Or did he really meet some kind of trouble?

Even if among the five lead disciples Zhan Ziyeʼs personal relationship was the poorest, since he was now a teammate, he ought to pay attention to this.

Just before leaving, however, Wang Lu actually put forward an embarrassing request to Qiong Hua.

”After this, I donʼt know if I ever want to get back here, so why donʼt you give this thing as a parting gift for me.” With that, Wang Lu reached out his hand for Yu Mengjun.

This transformed dream tapir girl revealed a terrified and worried face. As the fuse of the quarrel between Wang Lu and Qiong Hua, she could hardly take care of herself.

Qiong Hua shook for a moment, and then earnestly shook her head. ”Impossible.”

Wang Lu then said, ”How about this, how about if you send her to study in Spirit Sword Sect as a foreign student?”

Qiong Hua was stunned. She did not expect Wang Lu to be so persistent for this dream tapir. Although a dream tapir was a strange as well as ancient beast, her bloodline was not pure. At least, it was much worse than the spirit beast of Spirit Sword Sect. On the perception and qualification, it was also just above standard...

”Letʼs talk about it later.” Qiong Hua didnʼt immediately reject it this time. ”When we come back, Iʼll report this to the sect… if itʼs just in the form of foreign student, I think itʼs possible.”

Wang Lu cupped his hand in front of his chest. ”Then I have to trouble Senior Sister Qiong Hua.”

Qiong Hua was extremely flattered. When Wang Lu cupped his hand across his chest, the girl even subconsciously summoned her immortal dew sword to defend herself—because this well-mannered gesture of Wang Lu was too abnormal!

As a matter of fact, Wang Lu also found this to be unusual.

Ever since he saw this Yu Mengjun, he felt hot on his chest—of course, this was not the burning desire of a man in puberty, but from the warmth radiated from the jade pendant on his chest, which seemed to be hinting about something to him. Although the howling demon on the sole of his foot didnʼt say anything, Wang Lu judged that this ancient strange dream tapir was not as simple as an ancient strange beast...

Unfortunately, the secret of Yu Mengjun could only be explored later when he returned from this exploration.

Now, there was still the matter regarding Zhan Ziye!

It only took a tea time for the four of them to travel from Shengjing Sect to Ten Thousand Arts Sect.

Due to their wealth, as early as hundreds of years ago, Shengjing Sect had set up extensive transportation network that extended in all directions. Moreover, it was solely controlled by Shengjing Sect, independent of any third party organization.

When they arrived at the entrance of Ten Thousand Arts Sect, they were greeted by another scene.

Unlike the magnificent atmosphere of Shengjing Sect, but also different from the solitude of Kunlun Sect, not only Ten Thousand Arts Sect did not establish their sect in a mountainous region like the other four super sects, instead, it was evenly distributed in a valley.
