Chapter 241 - A Sudden Invitation to Fight (1/2)
Edited by Lord Immortal
The whistling clang, as if gaining life, revealed a kind of transcendental spirituality, which was very unusual.
Equipped with extremely rich experience, Shue Jin, Granny Wind and Chu Feng all knew instantly that a spiritual treasure has emerged!
Whir whirr~
All of a sudden, Rosy clouds burst up in the sky, one after another, emitting strong lights, and reflecting the illusory shadow of a saber.
The trio could not help being attracted by this scene, all wearing a shocked expression.
However, the anomaly in the sky disappeared in the twinkling of an eye as if it had never been there.
Nevertheless, it rendered Shue Jin, Granny Wind and Chu Feng all unable to calm down.
“It has been said that when a spiritual weapon reaches the perfection state, it can be endowed with a kind of spirituality that signifies its flawlessness, thus being called a spiritual treasure. Though I do have seen such treasures several times over these years, I did not expect to have the opportunity to witness the emergence of a spiritual treasure with my own eyes today!”
Shue Jin’s rugged face was full of exclamation. He seemed to be relaxed, but in fact, torrents of thoughts were rising in his heart.
If he was correct, this heaven-bestowed spiritual treasure must have been the work of Lin Xun. But who could imagine that Lin Xun was only a fourteen-year-old spiritual tattooist?
Moreover, who could imagine that it took only three days for this spiritual treasure to come out?
If they ever got to know all of this, those old guys from the Academy of Spiritual Implements who were well versed in spiritual tattoos would certainly feel ashamed.
“Is this the work of Master Xun? It’s really great and beyond imagination. Judging solely from his capability of refining a spiritual treasure, I’ve been completely convinced.”
Granny Wind wore an expression which was a mixture of shock and exclamation since she had disregarded Master Xun whom she had never heard of before.
It was only after Lin Xun expressed that Master Xun could fix Ancient-rhythm Ocarina that Granny Wind began to show a little more interest; though to a large extent, she still felt uncertain of whether Master Xun could really repair it.
But after witnessing the birth of a spiritual treasure at this moment, Granny Wind had been totally convinced, with her original suspicions all gone.
“Being able to refine a spiritual treasure has already proved that Master Xun is capable of refining armours with spiritual tattoos. If there’s an opportunity, I must pay a visit to this mysterious master in person.”
Granny Wind sighed with deep admiration.
Shocked, Shue Jin also recalled a rumour in the empire that a spiritual tattooist would be qualified to explore and refine armours with spiritual tattoos as long as he or she could refine spiritual treasures!
If so, did it mean that Lin’s attainment in spiritual tattoos had reached such a realm now?
Neither Shue Jin nor Granny Wind noticed that Chu Feng looked dull and stunned at the moment.
He knew the best that the so-called “Master Xun” was just a cover and the real refiner was actually Lin Xun!
It was just out of his expectation that Lin Xun should… should have already attained such a realm!
It was too appalling for a spiritual tattooist who was only a little older than ten to be able to do this. How many could achieve such a feat throughout the history of the empire?
Right when all three of them were having their own thoughts, the courtyard gate was pushed open and Lin walked out.
Shue Jin and Chu Feng instantly awoke from their stupor when they saw him, though their looks were slightly weird, as if getting to know Lin Xun afresh.
On the other hand, when Granny Wind saw Lin, she seemed to have lost the thought of denouncing him publicly. Whereas, she caught sight of his abnormality; he looked pale with feeble footsteps. Obviously, he was in a state of cachexia.
“Well, it turns out that we have Granny Wind as a guest today. Please forgive my late welcome.”
Lin Xun cupped his hands and smiled, with his voice a little hoarse and weak.
Granny Wind frowned and hummed coldly, “Little fellow, it’s not you who was refining just now. What’s this pitiful look for? Do you really think I will deal with you personally?”
Shue Jin and Chu Feng also found Lin’s groggy state, and felt a bit worried. After hearing Granny Wind’s words, the two looked strange again.
“Well, I won’t bother to make a mountain out of a molehill, but there’s one thing you have to promise me.”
Granny Wind said in a low-pitched voice.
Lin Xun was stunned, “What’s up?”
Granny Wind threatened coldly, “Of course it’s about Huang Jianxiong. His path of cultivation has been cut off by you. Do you think this matter can be easily settled?”
Beside her, Shue Jin frowned, “Mad Woman, cut your crap.”
Granny Wind glanced at Shue Jin and then explained to Lin, “Very simple. Those practitioners from the aristocratic families will pick out one person to have a fight with you in a few days in order to settle the feud between you and them. If you win, they’ll have nothing to say. But if you lose, there’s going to be a price to pay.”
“A fight to settle the feud?”
Shue Jin sneered, “After all these years, these lads from the aristocratic families are still playing this old game; there’s simply not any novelty at all.”
However, Chu Feng felt worried, “Since they dare to make such a request, they would obviously choose the most powerful person. If so, how likely is Lin to defeat him?”
Granny Wind boasted coldly, “Do you think this will be an unfair fight with my presence?”
Shue Jin immediately understood what she meant, “So Lin’s opponent will also be in the Human-gang Spirit Realm?”
