Chapter 388 Heaven Credi (1/2)

“Beyond the reach…”

Could sweat immediately appeared on Zhou Yuan’s forehead when heard old Xuan’s words, as he subconsciously took two steps back. He stared warily at old Xuan as he forced a smile, “Elder, you can’t possibly be asking me to return the item I obtained?”

He was really feeling a little panicky at this moment, because he had already become quite attached to the Taiyi Green Wood Mark. Asking him to surrender it now would be akin to asking him to cut off a piece of his flesh, and there was no way he would willingly do so.

Old Xuan’s face remained impassive when he saw the drastic change in Zhou Yuan’s expression. Instead, he hoarsely replied, “According to the rules, you do lack the qualifications.”

Just as Zhou Yuan was about to force his way through, old Xuan continued, “But on account on how much I approve of your earlier words, I may make an exception for you this time.”

Zhou Yuan, who was about to rush forward, suddenly stopped. He stared at the old man and secretly gnashed his teeth inside. Nonetheless, he did not dare to reveal even the slightest hint of displeasure.

“Thank you very much elder!”

Old Xuan indifferently said, “It’s too early for you to celebrate… though you may take it, it doesn’t come without conditions.”

Zhou Yuan suspiciously asked, “What are the conditions?”

Old Xuan began sweeping the ground as he said, “Master’s items cannot be obtained so easily… if you want it, you must exchange it for a ‘Heaven Credit’.”

“Heaven Credit?!”

Zhou Yuan was first startled by upon hearing this, before he involuntarily exclaimed.

“Elder, your request is too much. I’m only a newly promoted purple sash disciple, how can I possibly have any Heaven Credit?” Zhou Yuan complained.

The Cangxuan Sect gave out various tasks to its disciples, which were split into three categories; Heaven, Earth and Human. The Heaven tasks were the most difficult, but if completed, the disciple would be granted a Heaven Credit.

Next were the Earth tasks, which would reward an Earth Credit when completed.

A Heaven Credit was extremely attractive to any Cangxuan Sect disciple, because it could be exchanged for several treasures.

These treasures include Heaven tier techniques, Heaven Genesis Weapons and even powerful Qi cultivation methods!

Needless to say, a Heaven Credit was a target that every disciple of the sect strived for.

However, not only was there a limited number of Heaven tasks, they would be immediately snatched up by one of the ten Chosens each time they showed up. Therefore, it was not easy for an ordinary disciple to even take on a Heaven task.

Consequently, it was even more challenging to obtain a Heaven Credit.

Every time a Heaven task appeared, all the purple sash disciples in the sect would become akin to a pack of wolves that had spotted an unguarded lamb. The intensity of the competition would make on involuntarily wet one’s lips.

Zhou Yuan was merely a newly promoted purple sash disciple, who had yet to even complete a single task, let alone a Heaven task…

This was why he became a little antsy when he heard old Xuan wanted a Heaven Credit.

However, old Xuan ignored Zhou Yuan’s complaints and said, “Even though I do not know what you obtained, it is already a huge steal for you to exchange it for a Heaven Credit.”

Zhou Yuan expression fluctuated indeterminately as he lamented, “But I don’t have any Heaven Credit!”

Old Xuan unhurriedly replied, “Then you’ll owe me one.”

“Owe?!” Zhou Yuan was dumbstruck. Was this actually allowed?
