Chaotic World Book-Chapter 1187 - 888: Other Mountains’ Rocks, Can Polish Jade (2)

Zhao Changhe nodded: "Alright, I'll discuss it with my wife."

Ye Wuming: "?"

Zhao Changhe pulled her and Ling Ruoyu aside, whispering: "I have a slightly different matter to discuss with you, not this kind of thing."

Ye Wuming said angrily: "I don't care what it is, are you finished taking advantage?"

"Verbal advantage counts for nothing, besides, aren't you the child's mother?"

Ling Ruoyu: "..."

Ye Wuming covered her forehead: "What do you want to discuss?"

Zhao Changhe said: "I've been thinking, there might be something in the Otherworld comparable to the Heavenly Dao, why don't you consider inviting external assistance? Or, could the Heavenly Dao invite other friends to deal with us..."

Ye Wuming shook her head: "A treasure like the Heavenly Book, which can give birth to an entire realm, is a treasure among treasures, who wouldn't want to keep it to themselves? Who would foolishly bring in outsiders to compete with themselves? It's not like they're crazy. Similarly, we don't dare let wolves into our house, lest we drive away the original Heavenly Dao only to invite in an even bigger problem."

Zhao Changhe pondered for a moment: "That's true... so, this should best remain an internal affair, not to be further expanded?"

"Yes, the consequences are unpredictable, we don't dare gamble with the lives of a whole realm's creatures." Ye Wuming countered: "So, do you want to check out the Heavenly Sword Dojo?"

"For the Dragon Sparrow, I definitely have to go take a look."

The Dragon Sparrow shivered with joy.

Ling Ruoyu glanced at it, grinding her teeth.

Zhao Changhe asked again: "But we should still understand our opponent first... Since you're familiar with this place, do you know what level the Heavenly Sword Venerable is at?"

Ye Wuming shook her head: "I've never faced him, but I have watched his battles with others, slightly weaker than you, but not by much."

"You've never fought them to experience the Otherworld's combat firsthand?"

"I've never acted casually in other worlds, mainly worried that revealing myself as a Heavenly Dao might provoke rejection from the native Heavenly Dao..." Ye Wuming glanced at him: "Mainly because I already understand just by observing, unlike certain rookies who need battle experience."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

Ling Ruoyu raised her hand to ask: "Can I spar?"

Seeing the young girl's eager appearance, Ye Wuming immediately put on a kind face: "Both of you can act, there's no problem."

Zhao Changhe said: "No rush, I'll find out more first."

Saying this, he casually stopped a passerby: "My good man, we wish to visit the Heavenly Sword Venerable, do you know if there are any taboos regarding the Venerable? Is it presumptuous to go directly?"

"From out of town?" The passerby laughed: "You do understand etiquette, barging into Heavenly Sword Mountain is definitely seen as a challenge. The Heavenly Sword Venerable has a Hero Pavilion in town, accepts challenges in layers, and those who can break through are treated as esteemed guests, everyone in town knows this."

Zhao Changhe smiled and cupped his hands: "Thanks."

Ling Ruoyu looked admiringly at Zhao Changhe, her eyes sparkling. Ye Wuming pursed her lips in disdain, seeing through Zhao Changhe's measured spontaneity, not posing as Wang Daozhong was already unpretentious enough... Actually, that's because when he announced himself, he used the opportunity at night...

Consider it a Jianghu lesson for Ling Ruoyu.

The three, each with different thoughts, arrived at the so-called Hero Pavilion. There were guards at the front, who solemnly asked upon the trio's arrival: "May I ask who you are..."

Zhao Changhe smiled and cupped his hands: "I heard that to meet the true Heavenly Sword, one must challenge the Hero Pavilion first, that's why we're here. Is there a rule for challenging?"

The guard said: "Only single-person challenges, companions can enter but can't substitute."

"Can magical treasures be used?"

"They can, we who defend the gates have magical treasures too."

"Alright then."

"Who among you is challenging?"

Zhao Changhe and Ye Wuming simultaneously pushed Ling Ruoyu forward a step: "She is."

Ling Ruoyu: "???"

Why not just tell me to directly cut down the Heavenly Dao?

Zhao Changhe took out the Dragon Sparrow and hung it on Ling Ruoyu's back, smiling: "You have two transformations, if you can't win, use the Dragon Sparrow, if you still can't, use the Star River. Go on, girl, this is your trial."

Ling Ruoyu suddenly remembered that her father once intended to let her wander the Ancient Sword to test against the God Demon, and then said there were other ideas... Actually, it turns out Zhao Changhe had thought of checking out the Otherworld a long time ago, the so-called need to verify ideas... was he seeing how his chat with his ex-wife went?

Suddenly feeling that all her mother's reactions were within her father's predictions... In the grand scheme of things, her mother was always the world's pinnacle, but in the realm of relationships, it seemed someone was being crushed...

The girl's mind was filled with thoughts about her parents' relationship as she stepped into the pavilion.

Only after entering did she realize that what looked like a simple pavilion from outside was actually filled with various arrays and restrictions, clearly to absorb energy and prevent the internal battles from destroying the pavilion.

A middle-aged female Taoist sat cross-legged in the center, refining elixirs.

Zhao Changhe followed behind Ling Ruoyu, stroking his chin, examining the pill furnace and Earth Fire. He was also thinking, compared to the Cultivation World, alchemy here in the Heavenly Book World has become much less emphasized, with medicines mainly used for healing, and a few for strengthening foundations or improving physiques. Although they're called elixirs, they mostly relate to medicinal properties and differ greatly from the myriad uses of alchemy in the Cultivation World.

As he was thinking this, the middle-aged Taoist opened her eyes and looked at Ling Ruoyu.

Ling Ruoyu stepped forward and cupped her hands: "Junior Ling Ruoyu, please instruct me, senior."

The Taoist scrutinized Ling Ruoyu for a moment, frowning: "Strange bone age, strange Divine Soul, strange Sword Intent... are you a demon who took over a human body?"

Ling Ruoyu: "..."

If you put it that way, it's not entirely wrong, the Dragon Sparrow was also called a Demon Sword... But according to this lady, there really are "demons" in this place, which I, a country bumpkin, haven't seen before.
