Chapter 59: 059, [If Life Were As We First Met]

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The first generation of disciples in the Demon Sect were all picked up by Yan Li during his travels around the world. He unintentionally collected too many, so he straightforwardly established a sect of his own.

Indeed, the establishment of the Demon Sect was really done so casually.

Back then, Yan Li wasn’t the world’s leading Sword Cultivator and the twelve original disciples of the Demon Sect were merely invisible figures within the cultivation world. But as time progressed, they were constantly advancing at an astonishing pace, thanks to their respective opportunities and adventures.

Of course, more than half of the credit for this goes to their mentor.

Gradually, the Demon Sect became stronger and grew to the size it is now.

However, the path of cultivation is a road leading to the heavens, with countless falling on the way. Even the initial group of disciples of the Demon Sect couldn’t avoid this fate.

Even Yan Li ended up ‘closing the loop of death’, let alone the others?

Perhaps recalling various past events made Shen Yan and several Peak Masters become somewhat silent.

Out of twelve people, only five remained, plus the master who closed the loop of death. Half of them were already gone.

They remained silent, just quietly watching Lu Xun, eager to see how far this Natural Sword Embryo could go.

Standing atop the Hidden Mountain, Lu Xun had already reached the 599th step.

This place was teeming with Superior Blue Equipment, which was paradise for players.

The Big Stick Hero’s weapon of Lu Xun’s max-level character was only Superior Blue Equipment. Although its attack power stood out, matching common purple equipment, it had firmly established Lu Xun’s reputation as the “Big Stick Hero”.

He glanced at the Blue Equipments, and then he paused slightly.

“Why is the ‘First Encounter’ here?” Lu Xun was looking at a light green shirt.

This light green shirt named “First Encounter” was one of the signature items from his previous life, obtained within a certain Secret Realm.

Despite the light and thin appearance of this piece of blue equipment, it had astonishing defensive power. There would have been many more times he would have been killed in his usual troublemaking if it weren’t for its protection.

To make a fortune, Lu Xun was quite wild. There was no other way, he had to make a name for himself in order to get more orders, and only having enough orders could bring enough profits!

As for the matters of faith and morals, they were just a brief separation on the road to success, he could pick them up again later.

Looking back, Lu Xun’s fondness for the ‘First Encounter’ far exceeded that for his stick, the reason was very simple—it looked amazing when he put it on, absolutely handsome!

When it activated, there was a blue glow, both flashy and reliable. It was definitely a tool that balanced showing off and attracting women.

This kind of equipment is most popular, after all, strength is temporary, but cool is a forever. Players were very clear on this matter.

Back then, he was handsome and vibrant, and many female players struggled to establish a romantic relationship with him. He was quite pleased with the situation at first, however after meeting a few of them offline, his interest waned.

The face editor system has killed people!

“Since ‘First Encounter’ appears here, it seems that in the future, a disciple of the Demon Sect gains its approval and takes it from the Hidden Mountain. But he dies in that secret realm and then I stumble upon it.” Lu Xun said to himself.

Pity, what used to be his signature blue equipment doesn’t give a shit about him anymore.

This made his feelings a bit complicated, he even felt a sense of life’s changes.

On the other hand, the Spirit Swords were still continuously emitting sword sounds, try to attract Lu Xun’s attention. All these sounds were ignored by him.

Before continuing to climb, Lu Xun couldn’t help but look at the ‘First Encounter’ again. It was still unresponsive…

—No longer like the first encounter.

The front was still misty, and Lu Xun was not walking fast.

At this moment, he was curious about which disciple of the Demon Sect would take ‘First Encounter’ from Hidden Mountain in the future?

“If conditions allow, it would be good for that person to avoid that Secret Realm.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

Walking, Lu Xun reached the 698th step. Going up further, there would be the purple equipment.

On the other hand, because along the way, none of the magical weapons besides sword had any reaction to him, he had no doubt and just arrived here quickly.

Due to lack of options, he seemed particularly indifferent to outsiders.

Lu Xun lifted his foot and took a step upwards, and the fog automatically dispelled.

There were only five pieces of purple equipment on the 699th step.

A dagger, a long spear, a belt, a ring, and… a dice?

“Why is there a dice as well?” Lu Xun was a bit stunned.

Although there are all kinds of equipment in “Heavenly Dust”, dice are relatively rare.

He had seen some before, but purple dices were quite intense!

“Whose relic is this dice?” Lu Xun wondered.

Too bad he was too low level to obtain basic information, otherwise he could have checked the basic information about this.

On the main peak, Yue Heshan looked at this dice, his eyes were complicated, and he could even hear his junior sister calling him “11th Senior Brother” over and over again.

In the ranking of the twelve, Yue Heshan was the 11th, being the little disciple, with only a younger sister below him.

This dice was the relic of his younger sister.

The little sister wasn’t a gambler, but it was widely known in the Demon Sect that there was someone who was a pathological gambler, even if he always lost no matter what he bet on.

This dice was of Immortal Level because the dice was just a cover up. The amazing thing was, there was a tiny, tiny Celestial Pearl inside.

To be precise, this was originally an Immortal Level Celestial Pearl. However, following the intentional action of the little sister, it was wrapped in the form of a dice.

He recalled clearly, that day, the little sister suddenly came to find him with a dice. She told him, “11th Senior Brother, I know you like me. Let’s toss the dice together. We cannot use spiritual power, only pure luck. If you get a higher point than me, I will agree to your feelings.”

This is incredible!? Yue Heshan wanted to howl with excitement!

He has liked his little sister for a long time, a really long time—so long that he couldn’t remember for how many years he has had those feelings.

It wasn’t just him, the Demon Sect was famously full of bachelors. Even Yan Li was startled by this and rushed over to preside over the grand occasion!

But Yue Heshan is really bad at games. In the presence of many senior brothers, sisters, and masters, he rolled a two!

Yue Heshan slumped down into a chair as if he had lost his soul.

His little sister casually threw a six!

The queen of luck, terrifyingly so!

Next, in front of everyone, she used her spiritual power to change the dice to one.

She had cheated, cheated openly, in front of everyone.

They had agreed to depend on luck, but she used spiritual power.

With the cultivation base of everyone present, this small movement naturally didn’t escape their eyes.

But including the master, they all claimed Yue Heshan had been victorious.

In his life, Yue Heshan could never win a gamble. This was the only time he won, and it was where the other party cheated openly and intentionally lost.

He would never forget that day, his little sister had the dice clenched in her hand, laughing and giggling, and then she bowed and said:

“11th Senior Brother, you’re amazing. The little sister is willing to admit defeat due to gambling loss!”
