Chapter 170 - An Astronomical Bounty, Who is Sixth Sister

Standing on the stone steps, Han Muye watched Huang Six leave.

Everyone had their own path.

Huang Six had left the mountain today to seek his own path.

Looking at Huang Six’s back, Han Muye felt envious.

With an obsession in his heart, he passes through the mortal world.

What’s life and death?

“Storeowner Bai, people will want the immortal-grade Purple Jade Pill, right?”

On the stone steps, Han Muye suddenly spoke.

Bai Suzhen looked up and saw Han Muye holding a small jade bottle.

Han Muye raised his hand and threw the jade bottle at Bai Suzhen.

Bai Suzhen took it and probed it with her divine sense. Her eyes widened.

Immortal-grade Purple Jade Pill!

This item was worth millions of spiritual rocks.

Senior Guan Chaosheng consumed this pill and entered seclusion. He was about to break through his shackles and advance his cultivation.

When he came out of seclusion, the news about the effect of the immortal-grade Purple Jade Pill would spread, and the price of this pill would increase by 30%.

“This pill…”

Bai Suzhen looked at Han Muye.

She did not know why Han Muye took out this pill.

“With this pill as the basis, I want to protect Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister-in-law’s lives.”

Han Muye put his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.

With this pill as the basis!

If he could refine this pill, he could also refine other immortal-grade pills of the same level.

In the cultivation world, those who could use such a pill were experts above the Earth Realm.

With this pill as the basis, how many Earth Realm experts would be enticed to help?

Bai Suzhen couldn’t imagine!

She opened her mouth wide and looked at Han Muye.

What does he want…?

“You know my level of alchemy. I trust you have the means to pass on my request?”

Han Muye’s gaze fell on Bai Suzhen’s face, and he said softly, “Storeowner Bai, you’ll be touched by the relationship between Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister-in-law, right?”

Bai Suzhen held the jade bottle in her hand tightly and nodded softly.

She knew more about the people in the Sword Pavilion. Huang Six and Han Muye paid the most attention.

She knew a little about Huang Six and Lu Qingping.

In the cultivation world, love was not worth mentioning, but Huang Six regarded it as a treasure.

Perhaps some people called Huang Six stupid.

But Bai Suzhen admired him.

How many women in the world would not want to have such a husband who only cared about them?

For some reason, Bai Suzhen’s heart ached.

Wasn’t her mother the same back then?

“Young Master Han, are you really willing to take out such a pill?” Shopkeeper He, who was standing beside Bai Suzhen, suddenly asked.

“Since when did my words not count?” Han Muye said calmly.

In front of others, this pill was extremely precious.

However, in Han Muye’s opinion, pills and swords were unimportant.

What was most important was that things go smoothly and unhindered.

Was it not worth it to help Sixth Brother with some pills?

“Haha, then I must make a trip there.” Shopkeeper He laughed, cupped his hands at Han Muye, and turned to leave.

Who wouldn’t want such a pill?

Bai Suzhen shook her head with a bitter smile. She put away the pill and said softly, “Senior Brother Han, don’t worry. I’ll explain this matter.”

Then she too turned to leave.

“Senior Brother Han, why don’t I go with you to protect Sixth Brother?”

After Bai Suzhen and the others left, Lu Gaofang walked forward and spoke in a low voice.

“Lu Gaoxiu’s Sword Technique fused with a spiritual weapon long sword. His combat strength was not inferior to the Earth Realm,” Han Muye muttered to himself.

“Senior Brother Han, I’ll go accompany Sixth Brother.” At this moment, a voice sounded from the Sword Pavilion.

Han Muye turned around and saw Gao Xiaoxuan carrying a small bag and carrying a short sword at his waist.

This sword was Huang Six’s.

“Do you know how to kill people?” Han Muye looked at Gao Xiaoxuan and asked softly.

Gao Xiaoxuan looked confused. Then he shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”

“However, I won’t let anyone hurt Sixth Brother.”

Hearing his words, Han Muye nodded and raised his hand. A small bag appeared in his palm.

“There are pills for cultivation in this bag. I’ve prepared them. They are meant for Sixth Brother. Help me pass them to him.”

In this bag were supreme-grade Cloud Qi Pills, supreme-grade Spirit Fusion Pills, and an immortal-grade Void Meridian Pill.

These pills were enough for Huang Six to quickly increase his cultivation.

Of course, although Han Muye did not know Huang Six’s cultivation level these days, he knew that Huang Six’s combat strength was definitely not weak.

Gao Xiaoxuan took the small bag and stuffed it into his bag. Then he strode down the world and ran away with the little white fox.

Yang Mingxuan and Jiang Ming, who were originally cultivating, were alarmed by the incident at the door and quietly came behind Han Muye.

“Yang Mingxuan, go to the sect mission hall.”

Han Muye clasped his hands behind his back and looked into the distance.

His eyes shone brightly.

“Announce a mission to protect Sixth Sister-in-law. Reward, 1,000 merit points, to be split equally.”

He paused, and a smile touched his lips.

“The issuer will be fire lineage’s Su Yuan.”

Since he could not get the 1,000 merit points back, it was just right to use them now.

Now that Patriarch Tao Ran was not in the Sword Pavilion, even if Su Yuan understood that Han Muye was the one who taught the Prairie Fire Sword Technique, he would not say it out loud.

After the storm passed, this matter would be over.

When Patriarch Tao Ran came back and asked about it, they would feign ignorance.

Yang Mingxuan nodded and walked out of the Sword Pavilion to the Mission Hall.

Han Muye heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Lu Gao. “Brother Lu, just guard the Sword Pavilion well. Sixth Brother doesn’t lack people.”

With that, he turned back to the Sword Pavilion and stepped onto the third floor.

It was only at this moment that he felt exhausted.

At the entrance to the Sword Pavilion, Lu Gao nodded and stood there like a sword.

…

In the inner sect of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect, at the fire lineage base.

A middle-aged man in a green robe stood outside the hall with a book in his hand.

His name was Qiu Shaolin, and he was a deacon of the Sword Sect’s Mission Hall.

He came here to confirm something with the fire lineage elder, Su Yuan.

The fire lineage had already declined and was about to be annexed by the other four lineages.

However, who would have thought that Patriarch Tao Ran would return and Elder Su Yuan would cultivate the Prairie Fire Sword Technique?

The fire lineage that was originally at the bottom of the five lineages instantly glowed with vitality and actually had the strength to suppress the other four lineages.

In the past, Qiu Shaolin, who was a deacon of the Mission Hall, ignored the fire lineage disciples. Now, he had to wait outside the door to have an audience with them.

“Deacon Qiu, why are you looking for my master?”

Shen Muyang, who had walked out of the hall, looked at Qiu Shaolin and frowned.

After the rise of the fire lineage, too many people came to build ties with Su Yuan, and it had already affected his cultivation.

If it was not something really important, Su Yuan would not have appeared.

“Senior Brother Shen.”

Qiu Shaolin cupped his hands and looked at Shen Muyang. “Someone issued a mission in the Mission Hall today in the name of Elder Su.

“A reward of 1,000 merit points. This mission reward is considered a huge sum. I came to confirm it.”

Bounty mission?

Shen Muyang’s expression changed. He snorted and said, “How is that possible! My master has been in seclusion for the past few days. How could he have issued a mission?”

Then he turned and walked away.

Qiu Shaolin shook his head, put away his book, and turned around.

As expected, the person who issued the mission is unreliable.

The fire lineage is so prosperous now, so why would it need to issue a mission to protect Sixth Sister-in-law?

Who is Sixth Sister-in-law?

“Wait a minute.”

Just as Qiu Shaolin took a few steps, Shen Muyang, who had already walked into the hall, suddenly spoke and walked out.

“You said, it was 1,000 merit points?”

Qiu Shaolin nodded and said, “It’s a mission to save Sixth Sister-in-law.”

What is this mission?

Although Shen Muyang did not know what this mission was, he knew that the fire lineage owed someone 1,000 merit points.

“Junior Brother Qiu, wait for me for a moment.” Shen Muyang cupped his hands at Qiu Shaolin and turned to leave.

What’s wrong?

Qiu Shaolin stood there blankly.

Shen Muyang quickly walked into the backyard and saw Su Yuan watching his new disciple, Qi Tao, cultivate his sword technique.

Qi Tao’s talent was not bad. Coupled with Ling Jue Sect’s foundation, his cultivation of the Fire Lineage Sword Technique was extremely fast.

Shen Muyang walked forward and reported the mission in a low voice.

Su Yuan’s eyes lit up.

“1,000 merit points.”

Nodding, he said in a low voice, “Although I don’t know who Sixth Sister-in-law is, I have to pay this debt.”

“Master, I think I know who Sixth Sister-in-law is.”

Hearing Su Yuan’s words, Qi Tao, who had sheathed his sword, bowed and said, “She’s the sweetheart of Huang Zhenxiong from the Sword Pavilion. He’s known as the Unparalleled Sixth Brother Huang. It’s said that Sixth Brother gave up cultivation for his childhood sweetheart and is willing to return to his hometown.”

Sword Pavilion!

Su Yuan narrowed his eyes and stood up.

“No wonder…”

There you go, he thought.

No wonder his master lived in the Sword Pavilion the moment he returned to the sect.

It turned out that Master’s plan back then was in the Sword Pavilion!

Su Yuan turned around and looked at Shen Muyang.

“Muyang, hand over 1,000, no, 2,000 merit points to the Mission Hall. I’ve issued this mission.”

At this point, he looked at Qi Tao.

“Qi Tao, you can’t just focus on cultivation.

“Lead my disciples below the Fire Lineage Foundation Establishment realm down the mountain to save this Sixth Sister-in-law.

“There are debts to be paid.

“All the more reason to return the favor.”

…

When Han Muye woke up, it was already a day and a night later.

After walking down from the Sword Pavilion, he exchanged a few words with Lu Gao and Yang Mingxuan before remembering the mission that Yang Mingxuan had issued yesterday.

“Senior Brother Han, this mission is a little troublesome.”

Hearing Han Muye’s question, Yang Mingxuan said in a low voice with a bitter expression.

Troublesome?

Han Muye frowned.

Did fire lineage not recognize the 1,000 merit points?

If they refuse to recognize it, I would give them these 1,000 merit points.

It’s only 1,000 merit points.

Seeing Han Muye frown, Yang Mingxuan said hurriedly, “Senior Brother Han, it’s like this. Elder Su of the fire lineage has set the reward at 2,000 merit points.

“2,000 merit points is considered a low-level sect mission in the Sword Sect. The mission has to be publicized throughout the sect and the alliance sects.

“Also, someone knows about Sixth Brother’s trouble and told others about this.

“Last night, more than 10,000 people from the inner and outer sect went down the mountain.”

1

10,000…

Han Muye looked up at Yang Mingxuan.

Is it that bad?

“Senior Brother, completing sect missions can earn one the bonus of the sect mission book.

“And there’s Brother Six’s reputation.”

A hint of emotion appeared on Yang Mingxuan’s face as he said softly, “Those senior and junior brothers who went down the mountain said that if Sixth Sister-in-law is injured, they won’t be able to face Sixth Brother.”

“That’s right.” Lu Gao, who was standing at the side, said, “There are also many brothers from the servant hall who want to go down the mountain to help Sixth Brother save Sixth Sister-in-law.”

Han Muye nodded.

He wondered if this was karma.

Reputation was nothing. It was just icing on the cake.

If he really needed it, it could be of great use.

In the cultivation world, most people were ordinary people.

How many ordinary people like Sixth Brother were on the Nine Mystic Mountain?

Today, they were helping Sixth Brother. Or rather, they were helping themselves.

Just as Master Mo Yuan had said, cultivators with ordinary talent in the world also had the chance to achieve the Great Dao.

The creation of the Ancestral Return of 10,000 Swords was to give ordinary cultivators a chance.

No matter how ordinary a person was, he should have the qualification to pursue the Great Dao.

Even if that qualification was illusory and unreachable.

For example, Huang Six sat in the Sword Pavilion and dreamed of returning home with Sixth Sister-in-law every day.

“Senior Brother Han, Master asked me to ask about Sixth Brother.”

Outside the Sword Pavilion, the white-robed female cultivator, Jin Yuan, arrived.

“Master said that the medical hall can help. Should I offer a few Void Meridian Pills as a reward?”

Jin Yuan looked at Han Muye with a strange expression and whispered, “Master also told me to ask if you’re really offering the immortal-grade Purple Jade Pills?”
