Chapter 525

Unlike Chui Yim, who exerted dominance during the visit to the Wong Clan, Kam Chin Kee was a reserved teenager, taking on the classic character of Cloud Palace members.

His victory over Lee Bat Fan ended with no spectators and as an unanswered mystery to the public. They turned to the Lee Clan for answers, but as expected, they returned empty-handed as Lee Bat Fan rejected all guests with the reason of being injured, leaving Kam Chin Kee’s ability as a mystery.

This was the impression of Cloud Palace to the world; mysterious yet too powerful to be ignored.

With that, Lee Bat Fan became the first cultivator to challenge the current Cloud Palace Itinerants and the first person to fail.

The world knew that this was just the start, as Itinerants of Cloud Palace mostly stayed around for about a year, yet it was only day two of Kam Chin Kee and Chui Yim’s journey. The nosy commoners knew that there would be more interesting “stories” for them, at least for this year.

The next day, Chui Yim woke up feeling refreshed. With the state of his physical body, he would not experience hangovers.

Lam Ming Sum had also returned from the palace. They kept her Ming Sum Hall around, but after becoming a Cloud Palace assistant, she had a special status and no longer needed to reside in the palace. She only returned for visiting purposes.

She paid Old Ngai, Kan Hang, and her father a visit this time around. Lam Ming Sum initially thought of visiting her half-brother, but in the end, she did not and returned to the Wandering Son’s Lake residence straight away.

“Brother Chui, letters for you!” She entered the house with a huge pile of papers, dumping it in front of Chui Yim.

“Letters?” The huge pile nearly made Chui Yim choke on his bun.

“They are invitations.” Kam Chin Kee sat next to Chui Yim, casually picking up a bun for breakfast. “Should be the after-effects of yesterday’s fight.”

Lam Ming Sum had already heard about the incident with Lee Bat Fan from them, thus she was left confused. “It was just a battle, why are they sending so many invitations?”

These workers needed residences too. Thus, a stark disparity between wealth and poverty was something that even Lam Chun could not change.

The further north Chui Yim went, the weirder he felt the place was. On his way, he met many who greeted him with their palms together. Some smiled at him kindly, and some even gave Chui Yim items. Chui Yim received things like silver taels and vegetables. It weirded him out, but he received them nonetheless.

It did not take him long to see teenagers with the same hairstyle as him walking all around the place.

I never felt inconvenienced with my hairstyle even during my past life. Only now, seeing this scene, makes me have second thoughts about being bald. Maybe I should grow my hair. He sighed. This was the first time he wanted to grow hair.

This was the world of Buddhism. Shortly, a few monks came to him, greeting him with a bow. Chui Yim wasn’t surprised as he knew that he had entered their territory.

“Benefactor Chui, the abbot has ordered this monk and my fellow companions here to receive you.”

Chui Yim followed the innocent-looking little monks, watching the public give them items sincerely like a curious cat. He was surprised at the generosity, as he knew that these residents who gifted the monks items weren’t the rich of South Imperial City, yet they chose to donate to them selflessly.

He knew that this was known as soliciting alms. Ever since Chui Yim received Fury, he could be considered to be the only successor of the Thousand-Leaves Sect as well as the only successor of Buddhism. The only issue was that Chui Yim wasn’t a Buddhist himself.

After some time, Chui Yim followed the monks to a little village that was surrounded by a fence. It was a weird scene to see such a village that looked like it was from a remote area in South Imperial City, and Chui Yim was surprised to know that this was the famous Apex Temple.

The interesting invitation Chui Yim received yesterday was from Mute, inviting him to Apex Temple for a catch-up. Chui Yim couldn’t reject Mute’s invitation, as he had successfully cultivated the second state of Invincible Diamond Body, which had three states: bronze skin, steel bones, and golden body.

It happened after he broke through to the two-chambered state.

Chui Yim felt the benefits this style brought him.

The saying that all gliphs in the world originated from Cloud Palace was not the most accurate. It should be the library in Cloud Palace with a huge crystal ball hanging from the ceiling and a comfortable bamboo rocking chair outside the door.
