I Can Obtain Attributes From the Aftermath of Battles - Chapter 6

Chapter 6: It’s Him!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the sixth day of the new year, all the Immortal Seekers in Flying Bull City knelt in front of the Azure Yang Sect.

Due to everyone’s early departure, Chen Mu had no choice but to set off on the night of the 6th.

It could not be helped. He was also afraid that the Azure Yang Sect and those people would cause the real chosen one to reach the Azure Yang Sect ahead of time.

…

After walking for 40 to 50 miles along the Immortal Seeking Path, Chen Mu found a good spot.

On the left side of this road was a slope that was not too steep. The slope was covered with weeds that were half the height of a person.

On the right was a clear stream.

Chen Mu found a huge rock nearby and placed it on the hill before hiding behind it.

From his position, he could clearly see the pedestrians passing by on the Immortal Seeking Path.

Yes, it was a perfect ambush location.

…

Due to the importance of this matter, Chen Mu did not dare to be distracted even if no one could see him.

The night passed without anyone passing by.

The sun rose, and the Immortal Seeking Path was eerily quiet. Not a single person could be seen.

Chen Mu could not help but sigh.

Who would have thought that on the day that the Azure Yang Sect opened their doors to recruit disciples, there would not be a single person on the Immortal Seeking Path?

Actually, this was understandable.

What kind of major event was it to enter an Immortal Sect?

It was much more important than the college entrance examination in his previous life!

For the sake of playing it safe, the Immortal Seekers from other places had arrived at Flying Bull City long ago.

Some had even been here for half a year.

Therefore, it was very likely to be a normal thing that everyone headed to the Azure Yang Sect yesterday.

Despite his thoughts, Chen Mu did not dare to be negligent. He kept his eyes on the empty road.

Everything else was fine, but he regretted not bringing some melon seeds to chew on and kill time.

…

Time ticked by.

More than a hundred Immortal Seekers had already been brought into the Azure Yang Sect.

However, Qing Yangzi and the seven elders did not have the time to bother about this at all.

After letting the sect’s deacons temporarily settle these new disciples in, they each took a chair and sat on a platform not far from the mountain gate.

From this platform, they could look down at the mountain gate a hundred meters below.

It was already noon.

The eight of them did not care about their identities. All of them stared at the mountain gate below them with eyes as wide as copper bells. They did not even blink for fear of missing any details.

If someone who was not in the know saw this scene, they would probably think that they were peeping at a peerless fairy bathing.

…

“There’s really no one…”

On the other side, Chen Mu was almost asleep hiding behind a rock. He did not see anyone.

Evening of the 7th…

Late at night on the 7th…

In the blink of an eye, it was the 8th of the month.

Chen Mu had not slept for two nights. His eyes were bloodshot, but he did not dare to be distracted.

He had the determination of an Immortal Cultivator!

It was almost noon when two figures, a man and a horse, appeared in the distance!

Seeing them, Chen Mu was so excited that he almost jumped out of the grass!

‘Good fellow, I finally caught you!’

‘Damn it, you’re already so late, yet you’re still taking your time. With your attitude, what’s the point of cultivating as an immortal?!’

He arched his slightly numb body and was ready to strike.

He did not feel any psychological burden when he waved this silly stick.

The man and horse got closer and closer. Unknowingly, they were already within 30 meters of him.

Chen Mu also gradually saw the person’s face clearly.

This was a youth about the same age as him. His appearance was ordinary, but right now, he had a dejected look on his face as he rode on his horse and swayed.

Chen Mu even felt that the kid would fall off the horse even if he did not hit him.

Thump!

As if confirming his guess, the youth really fell off the horse.

Chen Mu hid behind the boulder and hesitated to check out the situation.

However, before he could appear from behind the boulder, he suddenly heard loud wails from below.

“Sob sob!”

“I’m not human! The Azure Yang Sect has already built such a road, yet I’m still late!”

“I really don’t deserve to cultivate!”

“Damn it!”

“I’m so ashamed, how can I go to the Azure Yang Sect?!”

Slap!

Slap!

Following that was the sound of slapping.

…

After a series of cries, the youth got up from the ground and mounted his horse…

Turning around, he left.

“He… he left… left? This…” Chen Mu was momentarily speechless.

It was no wonder this young man was swaying back and forth earlier. It turned out that he was hesitating and struggling in his heart.

Chen Mu sighed inwardly as he watched the lonely figure gradually disappear into the distance.

This little brother had unknowingly missed out on an opportunity.

But with his personality, missing this opportunity might not be a bad thing.

Who could fully explain the circumstances of life?

…

After sending the naive fellow off, Chen Mu continued to wait.

Soon, it was noon.

At this moment, he could not help but begin to suspect.

“Could it be that I’m actually the person to face the calamity?”

“Surely not, right?”

To be honest, letting him enjoy preferential treatment in the Azure Yang Sect… was not a problem.

However, if he was meant to resolve some sect-annihilating calamity…

The pressure was too great!

“It shouldn’t be me… I’m not from this world. Even master can’t deduce my destiny. Can someone from a thousand years ago calculate it so accurately?”

“That’s unlikely!”

“I’ll wait…”

“I just have to be at the Azure Yang Sect before midnight…”

Chen Mu made up his mind.

…

Time passed bit by bit. It was almost afternoon when another figure appeared at the end of the horizon.

Chen Mu perked up again.

That person was alone. He was also unhurried, but his steps were abnormally steady.

When he got closer, Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly.

This person was dressed in a black outfit and seemed to be carrying a long saber on his back. Apart from that, there was no other luggage.

Compared to the previous person, he was much more nimble.

As he got closer, he realized that this person’s clothes were still stained with blood, as if he had experienced an intense battle.

Looking at that face again, Chen Mu was stunned.

This person looked to be around 18 or 19 years old. His skin was somewhat dark, but his facial features were extremely upright. Especially his eyes, he actually had double-pupils, giving him an inexplicable domineering air.

He had a supernatural disposition from birth!

He was definitely not an ordinary person!

Then, Chen Mu looked at his expression.

Although his face was full of fatigue, it faintly revealed a steadiness and perseverance that surpassed his age. That temperament was completely different from the Immortal Seekers he met in Flying Bull City a few days ago.

This was the second time he had encountered such an extraordinary person after coming to this world.

The first time was his master.

“…It’s him! It’s definitely him!”

As the person got closer, Chen Mu could see him more clearly.

He was not someone who judged a book by its cover. After all, he was a living example of this, albeit the opposite.

But this young man was too special. He exuded a special aura that said “I’ll be very strong in the future”.

Due to the influence of the special aura and the timing that he came at, Chen Mu was almost certain…

The determined youth walking down the Immortal Seeking Path was the one the Azure Yang Sect was waiting for!
