B2 - Chapter 59

Im happy to contribute, Brother Yang!

In Su Rous defense, she didnt seem annoyed by actually having to help William.

Excuse me for a moment, Brother Yang, Junior Wei, Su Rou said before returning to her group to say some quick farewells.

Senior Su is talented in multiple things, William commented, mindful that she could hear everything.

She is, Lan Yang agreed. Be sure to use the chance well. She will undoubtedly rise high once she is admitted into the Golden Pill Peak.

He took that as code to keep her occupied so she couldnt bother him. That was very doable. It seemed like the trip to the library would be fruitful before he had even entered the building.

Lets go! Su Rou cheered as she walked back to them. Junior Wei, feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I will do my best to help if it's in my capabilities!

I think thats my job, Su Rou, Lan Yang commented as he led them inside.

So? Brother Yang, you never wanted to be a mentor before. Its not fair you were picked when I applied so many times.

I think part of that has to do with you stationed in Dazhou Kingdom, Lan Yang said with a pointed look. It didnt escape anyone why you were so eager to be a mentor not that it stopped you from leaving your post.

Eh, Su Rou shrugged shamelessly. If the sect wont let me use an official excuse, Ill do it anyway. What can they do? Punish me?

William saw Lan Yang roll his eyes when Su Rou snorted in laughter at the thought of being punished.

Ah, Junior Wei, that doesnt mean I just wanted to be a mentor to free myself from Dazhou Kingdom. It was a happy side effect, Su Rou defended when she realized he could have taken it the wrong way. You wont believe how backwards that place is. Its as if they purposely avoid making their lives easier. No wonder they are so weak. The cultivators there spend far too much time on useless

Thats enough, Su Rou, Lan Yang interrupted her rant. Dont spread slander of an allied kingdom.

William wanted to ask where this kingdom was, but with the sudden silence and Su Rous awkward expression, he figured it might be better to look at a map and find the answer himself.

Lan Yang stopped them at the edge, where the entrance hallway opened into the massive first floor.

Correct, Lan Yang backed away slightly. Why dont you try it?

Er, sure, he pulled out his pass and laid it down on the blank state next to a book. He was getting used to seeing them everywhere. The blank slate started glowing a dull white.

William flipped the book open to see a list. It was like a phonebook. He wasnt sure. Those were basically nonexistent on Earth, but he had heard about them, which seemed similar.

At least the list was alphabetical, so it was fairly easy for him to flip to egg. He wasnt ready for the pages and pages of lists that were apparently books about eggs. One even seemed to be something about cooking them.

Thankfully, William soon found what he was looking for. The problem now was that there was nothing else on the page.

Tap what you want to find with your finger, Lan Yang gave him the next step.

He did so, and the tables surface immediately darkened to reveal a floorplan. A red dashed line appeared next.

This was basically an interactive map for the library. Wang Xiaoling was proved right again by calling the sect fancy.

J-7, William said out loud, reading the destination label on the map. It was a section of the library.

Thats to the end over there, Su Rou commented, pointing behind him. Before you rush off, Junior Wei, would you like some beginner lessons in healing? Its unlikely you will be able to understand it, but as you said, it might be a matter of life and death.

His eyes widened briefly before nodding quickly, not wanting the offer to go away.

Great! Su Rao cheered in a hissed whisper. Brother Yang, lets rent a room and prepare him.

Sounds good to me, Lan Yang agreed readily before addressing William. Anything else you want to know?

He had plenty of questions, but those could wait until after. No, I'm fine.

Then well take our leave. Try to stay around J-7. Ill get you in an hour or so after setup is complete, Lan Yan smiled.

Sounds perfect, Senior Yang, William smiled. It grew wider into a grin as he glanced at the dashed line againtime to learn more about the egg that eats corpses.
