Chapter 794: Chapter 11: Mission Accomplished

"Once upon a time, the Martial Heart Sect was one of the Four Great Earth-level Sects, the top sect in the Divine Land, with numerous disciples. The sect’s aim was to support Justice, to rescue the dying and heal the wounded. Later, Zhuo Buquan and Huo Dalong, two genius disciples, were selected by the Celestial Destiny Sect when they were just teenagers, obtaining the blessing of destiny. At that time, the Martial Heart Sect had already become the leader of all sects, unparalleled in fortune and strength. Zhuo Buquan and Huo Dalong also had boundless prospects. But for some unknown reason, while carrying out a mission outside, they used the Yazama Karashi to abscond with much of the sect’s wealth, leading to the split of the Martial Heart Sect, losing its Earth-level qualification. Presently, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is what was branched out back then." Gan Jiu tightened his grip on the knife.

"Didn’t the Divine Land send people to hunt down Zhuo Buquan?" Li Xin asked curiously. Shouldn’t they pursue them to death?

"Of course they did, but these two guys are proficient in Life Technique, very slippery. Once they decide to hide, there’s nothing anyone can do. After a long time, it just fizzled out."

Zhuo Buquan? Huo Dalong?

Fang Tiangang, Cai Zongzhang... Names can be fake. If the dice are unaffected, we can determine this later.

"Oh come on, Fatty Nine, these are all old news. Who outside would care anymore? There have been countless ups and downs among the sects in the Divine Land. We are now just an ordinary sect, relying on our own efforts for glory." Shi Dazhu said.

"How can we, as Outer Disciples, switch to becoming Inner Sect Disciples?" Li Xin asked.

"Haha, it used to be impossible, but now it’s hard to say. If people keep leaving the sect and the disciples become insufficient, we might have a chance." Gan Jiu said cheerfully.

Shi Dazhu also nodded alongside.

"You guys are not lacking in skills. Why haven’t you entered the Inner Sect?" Li Xin asked.

Shi Dazhu was about to speak when Gan Jiu smiled, "We’re a bit old. Your skills are better than ours; why haven’t you entered?"

"I will enter later. Isn’t this still the assessment period?"

"So are we. We previously messed around outside practicing some Body Techniques, all not up to standard, which is why you’re better than us. Old Gu and I secretly watch their training. Once the chores are done, it’s okay, then we’ll call you along. I’ve heard that a former Elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is coming here, which is a great opportunity. If he notices us, we could soar high." Gan Jiu laughed.

"According to what you said, there must be some bad blood between the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and us, or else we wouldn’t be in this position. Moreover, an Earth-level Sect Elder coming here doesn’t sound very credible, right?" Li Xin asked doubtfully. If they reminisced about their common origin, it shouldn’t be only thought of now.

"The Ten Thousand Swords Sect would love to see us die out. It’s indeed fate; Elder Wang is also an unyielding, irritable person. He had a falling out with the Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and left, looking for a place to prove himself, wandering through several sects. But due to his terribly irritable temper, he offended people everywhere, and he was persuaded to leave. Now Sect Master Fang has his eye on him. As far as we are concerned, as long as he has real talent, it doesn’t matter if he has a bad temper." Gan Jiu said proudly, "Take it easy, Master Xin. You’re new here; take it slowly. With your ability, becoming the Sect Master is within your grasp. Soon, the sect will be yours."

Pa~~~

Fatty Nine spun on the spot, his face instantly puffed up, a trace of venom flashed in his eyes then turned into grievance, tears welling up, "Master Xin, why did you hit me?"

"Are you damn trying to make me cause trouble for the Sect Master or what? Try that little trick again, and I’ll knock all your teeth out, making you lick them every day." Li Xin said flatly.

Gan Jiu took care of the kitchen and tableware, Shi Dazhu cleaned the training ground for the Inner Sect Disciples, while Li Xin returned to his assigned courtyard.

The Martial Heart Sect wasn’t thriving now, with even fewer Outer Disciples. The Inner Sect Disciples didn’t live there, leaving many vacant rooms. Li Xin found a quiet courtyard to reside in.

The conditions were much better than when they first went to Hedan. Fatty Nine and Idiot Zhu were clearly not ordinary men. But since there’s nothing else to do, playing slowly with them makes sense. Who knows what Old Fang is planning; he has to be cautious.

The bed was ultra-minimalist too, and Li Xin found it hard to sleep. The Divine Land is the Peak Pool, suggesting that the descendants of the Ancient Dragon Race used some method to survive the heavenly calamity. The Five Great Sanctuaries seem to be remnants of an ancient era, having committed taboos but still preserved with considerable power. Yet if they are the Ancient Dragon’s descendants, why are the people here different from the Dragon Mother?

Is the Dragon Mother from the Divine Land too?

The Dragon Mother is Beijing people but never mentioned the Divine Land, although she occasionally returns to Li Long.

Clearly, the cultivation methods in the Divine Land are completely different from the Eastern Continent, yet they’re connected to his Nine-character True Words. Li Xin isn’t in a hurry. Since he’s here, he might as well take it as a holiday. The chaos at Dragon Capital alone is enough to make him tense up like a bull.

Li Xin sensed his surroundings, took out the Bell, and gently shook it three times, quietly waiting. He couldn’t leave Divine Land for a short period, but he still needed to establish a connection with Dragon Capital. Could the Immortal enter the Divine Land? Damn, if it can come in, how does one leave? Didn’t they say one can’t get out?

The waiting time was longer than usual, but Li Xin eventually saw the mist appearing, and the Immortal emerged from it.

...

He watched the Immortal, a bit smaller than usual, slightly taller than average but in normal state, it was odd. The Immortal didn’t seem to feel anything, its soul fire burning eyes looked at Li Xin indifferently.

"Wait for me a moment, help me send three letters." Li Xin hurriedly took out paper and pen from the Yazama Karashi along with three Gold Liras, being quite happy to see the Immortal. At least he hadn’t lost contact with the outside world.

One for Kathy, one for Meng Po, and one for Jian Lezhi.

Inside the room, the Immortal patiently waited. For the Immortal, time is meaningless, as their eternal immortal existence seems to have lost interest in all things.

Li Xin placed the three letters and three Gold Liras in the hands of the Immortal, "I called you too urgently earlier. I’ve heard of the laws of the Divine Land; once you come in, you can’t get out. Can you leave?"

The Immortal looked at Li Xin and slowly nodded.

Li Xin thought to himself, impressive. No wonder they’re the top of the Five Great Sanctuaries. Also, you would die if you leave, but the Immortal itself is undying; it appears the Secret Castle’s laws are above those of the Divine Land.

But seeing the Immortal smaller in size, the Divine Land isn’t to be trifled with.

Looking at the gold coins, Li Xin felt a bit upset. Such a reliable Messenger is great, but also truly expensive. Arriving here, he’s in debt up to his ears without a clue on making money. From what the Young Sect Master said, this sect is precariously poor. Judging by Idiot Zhu and Fatty Nine’s demeanor, they don’t seem like they have any money to squeeze out.

The Immortal accepted the three letters, then pinched up two Gold Coins and handed them back to Li Xin. He stared in bewilderment at the Immortal, almost moved to tears. Who would dare say the Immortal is an emotionless monster, he’d be the first to disagree.
