Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 116 - 115 Antler
Chapter 116: Chapter 115 Antler
The grudges and emotions between cultivators aren’t that complex; it’s all about the Magic Couple Materials and Land in the end.
What Sui Yunfei intends to do is also simple: plainly stated, it’s about stealing from White Deer Peak and taking goods from the Xuanji Sect. More specifically, it’s about borrowing the mount of the Xuanji Monster, utilizing the antlers of the white deer.
But if he does it himself, it’s inevitable that the Xuanji Monster will figure it out. This old geezer is indeed quite formidable. It’s unavoidable to come under his lethal hand, so he needs to find someone suitable to take the blame.
Tie Dan is the right person for this.
Tie Dan didn’t care either; he had already offended White Deer Peak, and didn’t like the Xuanji Sect, so he might as well go for it.
"There’s a Spiritual Strange Immortal Grass on that green cliff. The white deer comes out every day to graze on it. The Xuanji Sect disciples even have to feed it pancakes, making it as fat as a pig, so dealing with it shouldn’t be too hard.
The problem is the Xuanji Monster is formidable, his Ice River Escape Technique entrenched in the Northern Land; once exposed, it’s impossible to escape from his grasp."
Tie Dan was speechless,
"Is that the powerful escape technique you’re talking about? Seems far from simple..."
Sui Yunfei nodded,
"It’s simple yet complicated. You just wait until the old monster goes into a deadlock for refining and can’t act, then you can take action.
You just need to hide for seven days, and he won’t be able to figure out your traces."
Tie Dan squinted his eyes,
"Sounds easy, but will he tell you when he goes into seclusion?"
Sui Yunfei laughed,
"That’s why it’s simple: I happen to know that this old monster, due to being possessed by demons during refining back in the years, has developed a malady. Every three to five months, the cold energy backtracks and must find a vessel in advance. With a secret technique and dual cultivation for seven days and nights, it can be barely suppressed.
I calculated that the time is approaching; I think he spared you earlier for this reason. So, we’ll wait for him to go into seclusion before taking action. You’ll have seven days to escape far away. That old geezer likely won’t risk his life for some antlers, and you can be safe."
Tie Dan calculated it, and it seemed to be true, but...
"How do you know all this?"
Sui Yunfei, proud,
"Naturally, it’s what his vessels told me. The old monster’s method isn’t exactly proper dual cultivation, but an evil path of energy replenishment, harming others for personal gain.
So the old geezer may have relieved the fire, streamlined the Qi, and suppressed the cold poison, feeling relaxed, but on the other side, there is significant depletion of Essence Blood, loss of power, and at worst, you might not get out of bed for one to two years. At its worst, it might even be life-threatening, ruining a lifetime of cultivation and Dao Foundation.
That’s why the Xuanji Sect is different, the Inner Sect accepts some female disciples to teach them specifically, rotating them to serve the old monster for refining.
Of course, some people may wish for this, eager to please the master and gain the Sect Leader Ancestor’s protection, receiving divine skills and Heavenly Materials Treasures. But some loathe it, wishing someone would deal with the old monster to spare them from the vessel’s suffering. So, I’ve verified this information from many sources.
Brother Tie, just rest assured; I’ve made plans, but there’s one variable I have to tell you about."
Tie Dan frowned,
"There’s a variable?"
Sui Yunfei explained,
"That’s right, the old geezer may have female disciples draw lots, but sometimes he chooses servants on a whim.
It’s heard that recently a newly promoted female disciple in the Inner Sect of Xuanji Sect, who successfully formed a core, is quite articulate, with graceful movements, outstanding looks, and a remarkable figure, is particularly favored. So logically, it should be her turn to serve.
But who would have thought that person would be killed by you, so I’m also unsure who the old monster will choose as a substitute, making it difficult to predict when he’ll go into seclusion. It seems I have to infiltrate the Xuanji Sect again for more information."
Tie Dan was speechless,
"That’s not my concern."
Moreover, that person probably isn’t dead yet.
Sui Yunfei nodded in understanding,
"I understand, basically a legitimate find."
Tie Dan, too lazy to explain further, scrutinized Sui Yunfei’s plan again.
First, Sui Yunfei needs to contact the inside informant soon to confirm who is selected for dual cultivation with the old monster because it’s necessary to calculate the specific date for dual cultivation based on the person’s cultivation, power, and Life Chart. After all, it’s an evil secret technique with many constraints, so once the person is confirmed, the timing is basically confirmed too.
Then, when the two go into seclusion for dual cultivation, there’s a seven-day gap. The white deer has to eat and drink daily, taking the opportunity when it goes to the top of the green cliff to graze and stroll, the two huddle and knock it out, cut off its antlers for delivery, then use the Ice River Escape Skill to make a quick getaway.
Of course, it’s a transaction—money for goods, then separate escapes. The point of finding Tie Dan is to make the Xuanji Monster believe it was him who did it, pursuing Tie Dan for revenge. This way, Sui Yunfei can slip away safely with the loot.
This plan isn’t overly complex and is quite feasible. Sui Yunfei’s goal is to safely get away with the antlers, ensuring that Tie Dan never gets caught by the Xuanji Sect and forever carries the blame is the best outcome.
Though the Xuanji Ancestor might be furious and come for blood, with careful consideration, it’s still worth a gamble.
A gamble that he won’t pursue.
After all, cutting antlers is a trivial matter! Antlers, once cut, grow back! It’s nothing serious!
Especially since this time, Tie Dan boldly faced off, killed people from White Deer Peak, embarrassed the Xuanji Sect, and ’ruined’ the old monster’s desired vessel. In reality, every single point was a capital offense, yet he endured them all.
So it’s clear that the Xuanji Monster is also careful, nothing: be it the white deer, disciples, or sect matters. They all don’t matter more than his life.
The Old Xuan Sect, first priority is always to protect himself, of course, ensuring the elimination of hidden dangers from being possessed by demons, as for any other small things, they are really insignificant, considering a Divine transformation master with a thousand years of longevity, with time, cause and effect can be figured out.
So thinking this way, this business can indeed be done.
Just taking the causation of this "Ice River Escape Technique" and "Ice River Escape" is enough for Tie Dan to take the risk.
So in the following days, Tie Dan lurked by the Gen River to refine, honing the two newly acquired cultivation techniques, preparing for the ultimate escape.
Meanwhile, Sui Yunfei continued searching for his internal contacts, probing the Xuanji Monster’s schedule.
During this time, Tie Dan also secretly sent a letter, meeting once with Manager Qiao.
Manager Qiao brought both bad news and worse news.
The bad news is Zhen Baiyu seems to have gotten lost again, either captured by bandits or devoured by demons, but in this hundred miles or so, she just couldn’t reach White Deer Peak.
This might just be the so-called fate...
Tie Dan could do nothing; he didn’t know Zhen Baiyu’s birthdate, couldn’t plot her position; he could only give a box of gold to Manager Qiao, asking him to wait a bit longer.
If she can’t be found eventually, give the gold to Tang Tong, meaning Tie Dan failed his entrusted request.
As for the worse news, it concerns the Kan Army’s march south.
Indeed, ’disfigured’ Marquis Zhongshan, leads Ao Bing with Kan Army soldiers and horsemen, a hundred thousand strong, sweeping Genbei and advancing southward, their vanguard already appearing by the Zhang River.
With the Ye Capital Gate Valve refusing to surrender, the court yet to send an ambassador hastening peace, and no support coming from the surrounding areas, the confrontation between Kan and Gen near Ye Capital City seems inevitable for a bloody fight.
Since Brother Huan was favored by the Princess of the clan, his life wasn’t at risk, and Tie Dan wasn’t a fool, unwilling to die needlessly for the Gate Valve of Ye Capital.
Moreover, there’s nothing he hasn’t tried.
Now, Tie Dan realized more than anyone that a mere Core Formation Cultivator can’t shake the world of the Demon Palace.
Must be strong
Must be stronger
Must reach a strength that can’t be ignored
Strong enough to kill whomever you wish, strong enough that people fear you, only then they seriously listen to you.
Strong enough that you declare whoever fights, you’ll kill whoever! And you truly can!
Only then will everyone cease actions.
Thus, Tie Dan wasted no time, continued refining! Kept getting stronger!
When Tie Dan was replenished with Qi, fully prepared, Sui Yunfei, with newfound intel, came looking for him.
Moreover, he brought along two others.
"This is Little Chu, and this is Shuang’er."
Sui Yunfei introduced the two Xuanji Sect female disciples standing behind him to Tie Dan.
Tie Dan was puzzled, how come new members were brought in? This seemed different from the previously stated plan, right?
Sui Yunfei understood his gaze, clarifying,
"The date is set—tomorrow night. However, the Xuanji Monster will arrange Array Formation Restrictions early in the morning, preparing to enter seclusion. ƒгeewebnovёl_com
Therefore, we must hurry, mimicking these two’s demeanor, disguising as them to ascend the mountain in the morning."
Tie Dan looked down at the two agile, slender girls, then at his own well-exercised, steel-like chest muscles.
"How to disguise?"
Sui Yunfei gestured ’please’.
Little Chu and Shuang’er exchanged a glance, smiling faintly, then chanted softly, whispering under their breath.
Then, singing while disrobing, shedding the Daoist robe and skirt... along with the skin from their bodies.
In a blink, there remained only two lamb-like meat people in front of them, gory and steaming, smiling at Tie Dan...
Tie Dan was silent, looking towards Sui Yunfei.
Sui Yunfei smiled, took out a medicine bottle, and handed it over,
"The Skin Painting Technique, a little trick learned from demons, come on, Brother Tie, try it out, see which fits better."
