Chapter 9: Everything Is Ready

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Brother Zhou, it’s been hard on you. When heaven is about to confer a great responsibility on a person, it will first harden your mind and toughen the bones and tendons… I was sent by the heavens to temper you… When you look back on the past in the future, you will definitely benefit a lot.”

Chen Mu flipped Zhou Jinglei over and blew on his face to ensure that he would not wake up today.

It was not appropriate to just leave him by the roadside. It was also a little dangerous.

After all, there might be wild beasts in the wilderness.

…

After searching the vicinity, Chen Mu found a small cave and placed Zhou Jinglei inside.

Looking at the unconscious Zhou Jinglei, he still felt guilty.

After coming to this world, this was the first time he had conned someone he had no grudge against.

“Brother Zhou, if you meet a ruthless person, he might just kill you to silence you.”

“I didn’t kill you, so you owe me your life for not killing you, right?”

“Are we even now?”

…

“Heh. Just kidding. Don’t take it seriously. I owe you one.” Chen Mu muttered as he pondered over his next step.

The Azure Yang Sect would face the calamity of annihilation in the future, and Zhou Jinglei was meant to face it.

Now that he was heading to the Azure Yang Sect to replace Zhou Jinglei, he felt more comfortable. However, if the calamity really came, what should he do?

Even though he had the Little Assistant, and he should be able to develop well in the future, who knew what kind of calamity that was?

What if it was not a calamity resolvable through strength?

Therefore, to be safe, he had to ensure that Zhou Jinglei could also join the Azure Yang Sect.

This way, even if the sect-destroying calamity arrived and he was unable to withstand it, he would still have Zhou Jinglei to back him up.

“Brother Zhou, it’s decided. I’ll take care of the benefits first, and you’ll take care of the tribulation. The division of labor between us is clear and fair.”

After muttering to himself, Chen Mu took out a pen and paper from his bag.

He had to leave a letter for Zhou Jinglei.

After this incident, Zhou Jinglei was most likely shocked.

When he woke up, this confusion…

At that time, it was hard to say if he would still dare to go to the Azure Yang Sect.

“Brother Zhou, by the time you read this letter, I will already be in the Azure Yang Sect.”

“I must say that the spirit monster we met was particularly cunning.”

“It knew that Brother Zhou was stronger than me, so it knocked you out first before attacking me.”

“How can I resist the spirit monster with my strength?”

“However, heaven always leaves a way out.”

“At the critical moment, a deacon elder from the Azure Yang Sect arrived in time and killed the monster.”

“Only then did the two of us escape death.”

“As for what happened after that… Brother Zhou, you may not believe it, but it is true.”

“The deacon elder was shocked when he saw me. He said that my talent was amazing and immediately wanted to bring me to the Azure Yang Sect to meet the Sect Leader!”

“I asked him to bring you along…”

“Unexpectedly, the deacon elder disagreed!”

“He said that if he brought two people with him, if there was any danger, he would be overwhelmed…”

“I was shocked back then. This place was less than fifteen kilometers from the Azure Yang Sect. What danger could there be?”

“Besides, I’m just a villager in the mountains, not some rare treasure. Was there a need to be so cautious?”

“But…”

“The deacon elder is rushing me now, there’s no time to say more.”

“Brother Zhou, forgive me for leaving you in the cave first.”

“When you wake up, remember to look for me at the Azure Yang Sect. Since the deacon elder said that my talent is outstanding, the other elders of the Azure Yang Sect will probably give me some special treatment. When I plead with the Azure Yang Sect, they will not blame you for being late.”

“Don’t worry about joining the Azure Yang Sect.”

Regards, Chen Mu.”

As the letter progressed, Chen Mu wrote faster and faster. His handwriting became more and more messy, as if he was in a hurry.

After he finished writing, he found a stone and placed it beside Zhou Jinglei.

After Zhou Jinglei wakes up, if he recalled what had happened earlier, he might even suspect Chen Mu.

But there was one thing he would not be able to comprehend.

That was the reason for Chen Mu to ambush him.

Stealing his fortune?

He did not take a single cent from him, or even touched his body at all, how could that be?

Killing him?

Wasn’t he still alive and well?

As for lust, that was even more nonsensical.

He was not a cute girl.

If he did not want anything, why did he beat him up?

Was it for fun?

As long as he could not figure this out, he could only blame it on a spirit monster.

Then, he would read the letter he left behind…

Hehe.

If he could not see through the loophole, he would definitely listen to the instructions and head to the Azure Yang Sect.

Even if he saw a loophole, he would also head to the Azure Yang Sect to verify it.

More importantly, even though Zhou Jinglei was late, he was still calm. He definitely had some confidence.

He might be very talented.

When an extremely talented youth saw the contents of the letter, he would definitely feel extremely indignant.

He definitely wanted to see what kind of talent he had to be able to make the Azure Yang Sect disregard him.

This was another reason why he had to go to the Azure Yang Sect.

And as long as he went to the Azure Yang Sect, Chen Mu had plenty of ways to fool him.

As a genius who lived two lifetimes and had a Little Assistant, how could he not defeat this kid?

…

“Brother Zhou, when you go to the Azure Yang Sect, I will protect you. In the future, we will be good brothers.”

“Take this opportunity as a loan from me. I will definitely return it to you in the future.”

“Farewell!”

Chen Mu muttered to himself and resolved the guilt in his heart.

As a transmigrator, there was nothing in this world that should belong to him if he were to really check his fortune.

Was he supposed to commit suicide the moment he entered this world?

Or perhaps, because he had calculated it, he should not fight for it. In that case, if he did not calculate anything, could he fight for it with a clear conscience?

Wasn’t that self-deception?

Forget about transmigration, even in his previous life, if someone calculated that he was destined to be poor and destitute, and that money should belong to someone else, he would not lie flat just because of this.

…

It was almost evening now.

Looking at the setting sun on the horizon, Chen Mu did not delay any further. He ran along the Immortal Seeking Path.

After passing by a mountain stream, he suddenly stopped and threw his bag into the stream without a word.

Then, he took off his robe and threw away the inner armor, Hundred Treasure Bag, and all sorts of antidotes.

What a joke. As an Immortal Cultivator, how could he bring these things?

It was too shameful!

From now on, these things would have nothing to do with him!

In the end, he was left with a saber and a small mirror.

Chen Mu took out the mirror and looked at himself. His expression gradually became firm and steady.

He was even more determined and steady than Zhou Jinglei.

Coupled with his extraordinary appearance, he could immediately give others a deep impression of him being extraordinary in the future, the embryonic form of a super expert, and that this kid would surely become great.

There was no other way. Hard power was not enough, so he could only use his looks as well.

After that, he touched the back of his neck and wiped the blood on his clothes.

This was not enough. He made a few more holes in his clothes.

“Well, that makes it justifiable for me to be late.”

Chen Mu looked at himself in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction. Then, he threw the mirror into the stream.

Success!

Everything was ready!

Chen Mu turned around and continued running!

He used all his strength!

Twenty miles was enough to exhaust him.

Just imagine, what would the big shots of the Azure Yang Sect think when an exhausted, tattered youth with injuries appeared in front of the Azure Yang Sect at such a critical moment?

Not to mention, this youth’s appearance was so extraordinary.

The corners of Chen Mu’s mouth curled up slightly, but he quickly regained his seriousness!

To get into character, one had to fix their mental state early.

Whether it would work or not depended on today.
