Chapter 445: Sneaking into the Sky Mountain Sect?

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

“This is…” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili’s eyes shined brightly.

“Lotus seeds,” Hao Ren slightly nodded, confirming their guesses.

Actually, when Hao Ren took the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus out of the little golden box, three lotus seeds rolled out of it.”

Therefore, he decided to offer the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus to Zhao Kuo and take time to grow the three seeds.

Zhao Kuo had cultivated for over 200 years. Due to the failure in the Heavenly Tribulation, he had to start all over; that was 200 years of cultivation wasted. If he didn’t have the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus, it would take him years to reach peak Qian-level. Therefore, Zhao Kuo needed that Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus a lot more.

Hao Ren was only a low-tier Gen-level cultivator, and it would take him a while to get to Dui-level. It wasn’t urgent for him to use the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus.

At this moment, the three lotus seeds in Hao Ren’s palm were black, and it didn’t seem like there was any nature essence on them at all.

“Gongzi…” the twins became a bit disappointed after the excitement. “It takes thousands of years for these spiritual lotuses to mature. These Seven-Core Five-Color Lotuses will take at least 10,000 years.”

“They don’t have to mature; I just need them to grow up,” said Hao Ren.

A mature Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus, as the one Hao Ren gave to Zhao Kuo, would have lotus seeds. However, it didn’t have to mature if it was used as mystic crystals!

“It takes 1,000 years just to blossom!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili continued.

Xie Yujia was curious. “Is this thing very important?”

She had been taking care of spiritual herbs on Fifth Heaven lately and didn’t find those 100-year or 1,000-year spiritual herbs that special. But the twins’ reaction made her realize this was not as simple as she thought.

“This is Gongzi’s mystic crystal! It will affect his realm in the future!” Lu Lili, who was usually calm, became worried.

“Alright, alright,” Hao Ren patted her little fist when he saw her getting worked up, “I have my own plan.”

Lu Lili realized that she was too worked up, and she immediately took her fist back, blushing.

“What is your plan?” Lu Linlin asked.

“The lotus seeds need a planting process to blossom,” Hao Ren said calmly, “We have a field on Fifth Heaven where the nature essence is abundant. However, neither Yujia nor Zhen Congming had any experience in planting lotus seeds.”

Xie Yujia nodded. This was the first time she had ever heard about the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus. As for the spiritual herbs on Fifth Heaven, she was just taking her chances according to the description Zhen Congming gave her.

In fact, Zhen Congming had only stolen spiritual herbs. He had never had any experience in planting them.

“However, I heard that the Sky Mountain Sect was the best at planting spiritual herbs like spiritual lotuses.” Hao Ren changed the topic.

“Sky Mountain Sect…” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked at each other when they heard this name.

Zhao Yanzi was looking out the window with a cup of milk tea in her hand, and their conversation suddenly grabbed her attention as well.

“I heard that after the war a few hundred years ago, the Sky Mountain Sect moved above Fifth Heaven. It became a large sect on Sixth Heaven. So…” Hao Ren looked at the twins. “We can go up to Sixth Heaven and see if there are any rare techniques on how to plant lotuses.”

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked at each other again. They finally understood Hao Ren’s point.

Zhao Yanzi was drinking her milk tea and feeling bored. This suddenly caught her interest, and she looked at Hao Ren in excitement. It sounded exhilarating to sneak into a Sixth Heaven sect. Plus Sky Mountain Sect… Sky Mountain Sect…it sounded somehow familiar.

“Oh, yes! That arrogant girl was from the Sky Mountain Sect!”

Zhao Yanzi finally remembered Duan Yao who was riding that golden snow lion.

“Good, good! We can take the stuff from her sect!” Zhao Yanzi got super excited just at the thought of this.

“We could try that. But we are not familiar with Sixth Heaven,” the twins said.

“That’s ok. Someone is familiar with it,” Hao Ren looked over at the other table.

Zhen Congming was playing chess with Wu Luoxue.

Zhen Congming appeared to be anxious while Wu Luoxue seemed very calm.

“Checkmate,” Wu Luoxue moved one of the pieces and said softly.

Zhen Congming opened his eyes wide, and his breathing quickened. At last, he waved his hand back and forth. “This one doesn’t count! I made two mistakes at the beginning. I was letting you win on purpose!”

Without saying anything, Wu Luoxue started to rearrange the pieces.

The twins didn’t know much about Zhen Congming. However, they knew what Hao Ren meant when he glimpsed over there.

“I’m coming too!” Zhao Yanzi interrupted.

“What can you do?” Hao Ren asked.

“I…I…” Zhao Yanzi was stuck for a few seconds before she said, “I could cover for you guys!”

“It’s better to go earlier. Gongzi, please start planning,” Lu Linlin said calmly.

Although she and Lu Lili weren’t spoiled growing up, they had high statuses. They had never done anything like stealing. However, they were willing to become two female thieves for Hao Ren this time.

Hao Ren had his own plan. He thought of the Sky Mountain Sect when the twins first mentioned stealing the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus from the Dragon God Shrine.

Compared to taking a risk in the Dragon God Shrine, he preferred going to the Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven. Now that he had the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus seeds, it would be much easier and safer to acquire the cultivation technique of planting lotuses. It would be ok to bring this plan forward.

“Ok, I will go with you guys of course. I won’t just put you two in danger. Zhen Congming is familiar with Sixth Heaven, so he will guide us. You both are of higher realms, so you can protect us from both ends. So just the four of us,” said Hao Ren.

And me! And me!” Zhao Yanzi raised her hand immediately.

“You don’t need to come. You are only at the Foundation Establishment Realm.” Hao Ren glimpsed at her.

Xie Yujia was about to say something, but she swallowed it when she heard Hao Ren’s comment.

“I can be on the lookout for you guys!” Zhao Yanzi blinked her big eyes.

How could she miss something so fun and exciting!

Hao Ren looked at her and remembered when he sneaked over walls to steal sweet potatoes. He caused a lot of trouble during that age. Therefore, he could understand since Zhao Yanzi was at that age right now.

She would be upset about it for a long time if he didn’t let her join them. In addition, since she knew the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll, she could pretend to be a Sky Mountain Sect disciple to get out of trouble.

“Alright, you may come, but you have to behave and do what you are told to do!” Hao Ren said as he looked at the table behind them. He wondered if it was a bad idea to take her out to do something like this behind her parents’ back.

“For sure! For sure!” Zhao Yanzi kept nodding.

Hao Ren would have never thought that the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll was not a technique regular Sky Mountain Sect’s disciples could cultivate. It was the sect master’s only daughter’s personal technique.

Hao Ren continued when he realized Xie Yujia’s stare, “Yujia can stay on Fifth Heaven. We should be back soon.”

“Um…” Xie Yujia nodded lightly.

In fact, she wanted to join Hao Ren. But she also knew that the more people went, the more problems there could be. Her cultivation level was low, so she would drag them behind instead of helping. The old grandma’s Life-Death Notes would be too loud to use up there. So, it would be the best for her to cultivate the technique the old grandma taught her to improve herself. Then, she would get to go to more places with Hao Ren.

“We will go to Fifth Heaven at 11 tonight then. We’ll get ready there and then head to Fifth Heaven by midnight. I am going to let Zhen Congming know about this,” said Hao Ren.

“Ok!” The twins answered.

“I’ll stay at your place tonight then!” Zhao Yanzi was so excited she forgot all about the unpleasantness.

She forgot about Hao Ren and Xie Yujia’s intimate conversation when she thought of stealing things from that annoying girl’s sect.

Hao Zhonghua, Yue Yang, Grandma, Zhao Guang, and Zhao Hongyu were having a pleasant conversation on the other table at this moment. The rain made it a bad time to go shopping, but it was nice to sit down and chat with a cup of tea.

“Checkmate.”

A pleasant yet calm voice came from the table on the other side of Hao Ren.

Zhen Congming looked at the chess board in regret. He suddenly said, “I saw it wrong. It doesn’t count!”

Wu Luoxue didn’t say anything this time either. She picked all the pieces up and slowly set them up again.

Xie Yujia opened the Spells’ Origin Note Scroll and started to study it against the window.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili borrowed a chess game from the waitress and sat opposite of each other before playing.

They were very chatty and lively; even Hao Ren laughed at their jokes. Zhao Yanzi looked outside the window as she sipped her milk tea; it was rare for her to be this quiet.

“Checkmate,” there went the pleasant and calm voice again.

Hao Ren looked towards the little table and saw Zhen Congming pouting as he moved a piece. He frowned in concentration; obviously, he was serious this time.

Wu Luoxue had won two games in a row, and this had severely challenged his intelligence.

Wu Luoxue moved another piece softly and said, “Checkmate.”

Zhen Congming was stupefied. Then, he made another quick move.

Wu Luoxue pushed a piece one space forward with her little hand. “Checkmate.”

Zhen Congming stared at the board; his pupils were shivering.

“You lost,” the words sounded like a thunderbolt out from the blue to Zhen Congming.

“Um…um…” He had no more excuses.

“Little Xue, it’s about time for your piano lesson!” Yue Yang stood up.

“Oh,” Wu Luoxue stood up and wiped her hands with the little towel beside her. Then, she walked to Yue Yang, leaving Zhen Congming upset and desperate.

“How was it? Did you win the game?” Yue Yang asked Wu Luoxue.

“I won three games,” Wu Luoxue answered.

“Did Congming win any games?” Yue Yang asked randomly.

“Um…he is very dumb,” Wu Luoxue said as she followed Yue Yang to the gate.

Her words sounded like a punch to Hao Ren.

Sure enough, Zhen Congming pulled his hair as he knocked his head on the chessboard.
