Chu Zhiyuan didn't sense any danger, so he pocketed it.
Looking around, Chu Zhiyuan sighed with emotion: "A grandmaster with a promising future has ended just like that. Living is not easy, but dying is too easy."
"Senior Brother Zhou is also a pitiful person."
"Pitiful people must have hateful aspects," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile. "He's pitiful, but his master is probably even more pitiful."
"Master Kong..." Huang Shirong looked regretful and gently shook her head. "I'm afraid there's no hope for him to advance to grandmaster anymore."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
With the stimulation of this event, how could he possibly step into the grandmaster realm?
His state of mind is flawed. It would be good enough if he doesn't become possessed. To advance to grandmaster, unless he has extraordinary wisdom and great opportunities, there's no hope.
"To encounter such a disciple, it can be considered his bad luck. There are always ungrateful ones," Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Alas..." Huang Shirong sighed with emotion.
She thought of Kong Xuefang's treatment of Zhou Tianqi.
From a young age, he was brought into the sect, carefully nurtured, and loved and taught like his own son, pouring countless efforts into him.
Cultivating a grandmaster requires astonishing effort. In the end, this disciple practiced the Jade Cauldron Sect's evil art and even wanted to kill him. This kind of pain and desolation is enough to make one's scalp tingle and unbearable.
On the way back, she remained silent.
Sitting in Chu Zhiyuan's arms, she felt a sense of inexplicable peace enveloping her.
But she was constantly vigilant, reminding herself that she was the future palace master of the White Cloud Sword Palace, not an ordinary woman, and couldn't indulge in romantic feelings. This thought was like a bucket of cold water, constantly dousing her, allowing her to stay awake.
Chu Zhiyuan, on the other hand, was both nurturing his sword energy and pondering the mysteries of the crystal cauldron.
This crystal cauldron appeared to be transparent, but under observation, it was covered with strange patterns. He had never seen these patterns before, but they possessed a unique mystery.
When he injected his stellar energy into it, nothing happened, but when he injected his mental energy, he saw a strange space. This greatly surprised him.
He couldn't help but think of something: a space pouch, a storage bag. Could it be that this crystal cauldron was actually a space pouch?
"I will tell Elder Gu," Huang Shirong said with a smile.
She could imagine Gu Qingshan's distressed appearance.
"Then I'm leaving." Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand and strode into the Prince's mansion gate, with the two Heavenly Dragon steeds following behind. Huang Shirong watched him enter and turned to leave.
Walking on the spotless avenue of the Qing Prince's residence, stepping on the white stones, her mood suddenly became complicated. Chu Zhiyuan sat with her, but there was no impropriety at all, not even a single touch.
She was quite surprised by this and felt complicated.
In her impression, Chu Zhiyuan was timid, but that was caution towards danger. His actions were not timid and shrinking, but rather strong and domineering. Sitting in his arms, it was inevitable that she would be taken advantage of, and she had already prepared to ignore it.
But Chu Zhiyuan was so proper, which made her quite strange.
Her appearance was indeed inferior to Xiao Ruoling's, but was it really that much worse that he had no interest at all?
She walked in the bustling crowd and quickly put aside these thoughts, welcoming Wen Qianqian and Xu Mengyu, who were rushing up to meet her.
"Senior Sister, how did it go? Did you catch up?"
"Yes," Huang Shirong nodded lightly.
"You really caught up? So quickly?"
The two women were surprised.
Xu Mengyu said: "Senior Sister, what about Senior Brother Zhou?"
Huang Shirong sighed: "Senior Brother Zhou has already been executed. His body will be transported to the sect by the Town Guard Division... I need to return to the sect. You two will temporarily keep an eye on things."
"This..." The two women were extremely surprised.
Huang Shirong said: "I'll tell you later. I'm leaving."
After she said that, she floated away and disappeared into the bustling crowd in the blink of an eye.
Chu Zhiyuan sat on the couch in Listening Wave Courtyard, with a small black bead placed in front of his left knee and a crystal cauldron placed in front of his right knee. He looked at the left and then at the right, feeling satisfied, and couldn't suppress the smile that welled up inside him.
This time's harvest can be described as huge.
An opportunity to go to the White Cloud Sword Pavilion, and these two strange objects. Both strange objects are extremely important, especially to himself.
The former can avoid the tracking of grandmasters, and the latter can store things.
He never thought that he could find a storage bag, a space pouch, in this world. Although it's not a bag, it has a similar function.
Could this world be a world of cultivation?
He shook his head.
The spiritual energy of this world is not enough to transform the energy of heaven and earth into something like stellar energy. To form stellar energy, it must be absorbed into the body and transformed through the body's meridians.
Directly controlling the aura of the void has no power at all. Even the power of mental energy can only sense and track, and must rely on stellar energy to exert its power. So it is impossible to cultivate immortality in this world.
But there is such a spiritual object as the Space Cauldron.
Does this mean that beyond the void, there is a world of cultivation?
The power of the Fearless Realm that I borrowed, the so-called Fearless Realm, is it the power of the world of cultivation? That's why it can defend against stellar energy?
Because this power is of a higher level than the power of this world?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
If this world cannot achieve immortality, then what about the world of cultivation?
Do the demon beasts in the Dragon Mountain Secret Realm ascend to the world of cultivation after tribulation?
Of course, if one can achieve immortality in this world, there is no need to go to the world of cultivation. Moreover, it is always external forces that come, but this world cannot go to the outside world. Even the Dragon Mountain Secret Realm cannot do it.
For a moment, his thoughts fluttered.
Qingying Sword suddenly flashed and disappeared without a trace. A moment later, Qingying Sword suddenly appeared.
Chu Zhiyuan's smile grew wider and wider, and he couldn't help but want to laugh out loud. This crystal cauldron is really wonderful.
It has the length, height, and width of a sword inside. It doesn't look big, but it can hold a lot of things. At least it can hold a lot of throwing knives.
Next time, Wen Qianqian and Xu Mengyu won't have to carry throwing knives behind him.
Then he shook his head.
Next time, he still needs them to carry the throwing knives.
This crystal cauldron is a secret among secrets and must never be shown to outsiders.
In the early morning of the next day, just as he was about to go to the Mingwu Hall, Feng Xi suddenly came over and handed him a letter. "Young Master, someone outside sent a letter, saying it's from the Young Master's old friend. It's obvious at a glance."
"Oh—?" Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Old friend?"
He glanced at it and had already seen the contents of the letter. Sure enough, it was an old friend. He nodded slightly: "Yes, I know."
Zou Fang took the letter.
Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand and said: "No need to open it, let's go." Feng Xi was puzzled but didn't ask any further.
Chu Zhiyuan pondered as he walked. Xu Yingying has finally come.
