32: Sword Test World, the Name of the Five Saints

The owl left again, but this time he didn't go far.

Before leaving, he left three feathers, stating that if Qin Chuan burned them, he would receive a message and arrive immediately.

As for when Lord Yunshan's subordinates would arrive, no one was sure; they could only wait.

During this time, Qin Chuan wasn't planning to just sit around.

—The first two life goals were temporarily out of reach, but perhaps he could try to exploit a bug for the Human Martial Saint goal?

“Phew! You brat are nothing but an ox and a horse! Even a donkey grinding a millstone isn't as resilient as you!”

Su Zhan lay on the ground, gasping for breath, looking as if he didn't even have the strength to move.

Even so, someone still dealt him a fatal blow to his heart!

Su Jun indignantly said, “Third Uncle! How can you say that? Master isn't an ox and a horse… You're the donkey!”

With that, she was about to go wipe Qin Chuan's sweat.

Su Zhan was too lazy to argue with his silly niece about topics like 'My surname is Su, your surname is also Su; if I'm a donkey, then what are you?'

He felt that Su Jun was beyond saving.

On the other side, Qin Chuan took the handkerchief from Su Jun's hand, motioned that it wasn't needed, and then sighed inwardly.

—The idea of exploiting a bug had indeed failed.

Not only did he fail to defeat a 'memorable strong enemy,' but even his attempt at challenging someone beyond his rank failed.

Was Su Zhan no longer qualified, or was Shen Qiu too strong?

“Sigh.”

“Master, why are you sighing?!”

“It's nothing, I just remembered something sad.”

—It seemed he really had to go find those famous Innate Martial Masters of the martial world one by one.

As for the channels, Qin Chuan thought he could find a way through the 'Graveyard Secret Meeting.'

At the same time, at the city gate.

A herb gatherer, carrying a medicine basket, passed through the city gate.

Recently, there had been no war, and this herb gatherer looked poor and had no exploitable wealth, so there wasn't even anyone to inspect him. He simply walked in unhindered.

After he had passed through the city gate, the medicine basket on his back swayed twice.

The herb gatherer quickly went to a deserted spot and said helplessly.

“Little ancestor, please calm down! This isn't the mountains. If anything really happens, Lord Yunshan will surely skin me alive.”

Seemingly displeased with his words, the creature in the medicine basket arched, and two or three white whiskers tentatively probed out.

Then a cat's head squeezed out.

“Ow! ┗|｀O′|┛ Ow~~” A fierce tiger's roar!

Unfortunately, before it could finish roaring, the herb gatherer pressed its head and stuffed it back into the medicine basket.

“Meow! (｀)/。”

A fierce tiger caged!

The person disguised as a herb gatherer cautiously looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

He muttered, “According to General Owl, the Inn should be to the southeast of the city gate. But where is southeast? This cursed direction!”

Midnight, graveyard rave, torches provided.

Although they hadn't come many times, Qin Chuan and Su Zhan were already familiar with the way.

They couldn't make tombstones rise like Xuanxu, but following the method, they still found the entrance switch.

A dark opening appeared. Qin Chuan and Su Zhan exchanged glances, then took out a fire starter from their pockets and lit their torches.

The underground was dim, and the torchlight wasn't ideal, further highlighting the eerie atmosphere.

At this moment, Qin Chuan somewhat missed the bright, shiny forehead of the Monk Fenru.

Sigh.

After walking a short distance along the passage, Qin Chuan observed the other Fork in the Road.

—This place should have been excavated by the Three Religions and Nine Streams and people of various schools within Youzhou. The graveyard was probably just one of its entrances.

To prevent encirclement, they should have prepared multiple hideouts, like a cunning rabbit with three burrows.

Of course, these things were temporarily irrelevant to Qin Chuan.

Following the path, he and Su Zhan soon arrived in the main hall.

Master Electric Light Bulb Fenru had already arrived, but Xuanxu hadn't yet, so the two waited in a corner.

The crowd was silent, as if a mute button had been pressed.

After a long while, Xuanxu finally arrived late.

As usual, Monk Fenru recounted the major and minor events of the world.

“The Li of Longxi and the Cui of Qinghe are getting married.”

“Gu Qingyun has challenged Crazy Chu above Dongting.”

“There have been recent disturbances in Yunmeng Mountain. The Bright Deity Guard has gathered. I heard that the one on the mountain is acting up again. Fellow Daoists, please be careful to avoid him.”

Qin Chuan listened quietly for a while, finding that most of it had little to do with him, so he just waited silently.

A moment later, it was finally time for free exchange.

So, at Qin Chuan's signal, Su Zhan stepped forward and said in a rough voice.

“Does anyone here know of any famous Innate experts in Youzhou? Of course, those from other systems are also acceptable.”

Silence.

After a long while, someone said in a hoarse voice, “Why are you looking for these people? Assassination?”

Qin Chuan: ...

Why did these people resort to fighting and killing at the slightest provocation?

Qin Chuan stepped forward at this moment and said, “No, there is no danger to them.”

Although he said so, no one still came forward.

If it were an assassination, these people might jump out and identify a few of their enemies, but since there was no danger...

In the end, Xuanxu stepped forward.

He glanced at Qin Chuan, then said, “I do know some information in this regard. You can come find me later.”

“Now… continue.”

With that, the next person stepped forward.

“What has happened in Yunmeng Mountain? Does anyone here know?”

—This was another question without an answer, which was normal here.

Perhaps some people knew, but they were unwilling to confide in these strangers around them.

Qin Chuan, however, seemed to have thought of something, but he didn't plan to say anything.

The entire secret meeting proceeded without much excitement.

Qin Chuan felt bored and went directly to the secret room to wait.

Not long after, Xuanxu arrived as expected.

“Martial Uncle.”

“Why do you want people of the Innate realm in Youzhou?”

—Of course, it's to complete the goal of Human Martial Saint!

Unfortunately, Qin Chuan couldn't say that, so he could only say:

“To test my sword against the world!”

Xuanxu shook his head, looking at Qin Chuan for a long time, unsure if he was telling the truth or a lie.

Finally, he said, “I told you to stay in Youzhou before reaching Innate. Now it seems that although you are not Innate, you already have the ability to protect yourself. So be it…”

After speaking, he took out a roster and handed it to Qin Chuan, saying.

“All the famous experts in the world are on it. Whatever you want to do, you can do it freely. If one day you encounter trouble…”

Qin Chuan looked at him with expectant eyes, and Xuanxu's next sentence came.

“…Don't say you know me.”

Qin Chuan: ...

“Go! Birds in a cage must experience wind and rain. Take these too.”

With that, Xuanxu threw him a package and turned to leave.

Qin Chuan put down the package and first opened some of the roster Xuanxu gave him, preparing to see what it was.

He looked up and saw a sentence—

“In today's world, among humans, Martial Zhou is the most powerful, and the Five Surnames have the longest heritage.

But there are those who can stand against a thousand, single-handedly suppressing the world for sixty years.

Among the outstanding ones, the Five Sages are the foremost!

Pressing down on the world - Crazy Chu.

Sky High - Gu Qingyun.

No Thought, No Obsession - Shen Nian.
