36: Chapter 33 Propaganda 36: Chapter 33 Propaganda Chu Xisheng was completely unconcerned about the cracked cutting board. Damaging some furniture or ruining some plants was a regular occurrence for Yunyun in their household. Especially since Chu Yunyun had a history of chopping through cutting boards twice before, so he had specifically found a particularly thick piece of wood to use as a cutting board a month ago. Even if the wood split, it could still be used. “I have no idea which force sent this girl to infiltrate the Zhengyang Martial Arts Hall. She’s not cut out to be undercover at all, her lively nature notwithstanding, as she also has a heart of chivalry, and is way too optimistic. Hmm~ Also, there’s one other flaw, she’s too clingy, and a bit naive—” In Chu Xisheng’s eyes, these were all strengths. Chivalry was easy to exploit, and naivety easy to deceive. However, Chu Yunyun’s next chop was a bit too forceful. Thud! The cracks on the cutting board went from two to eight. Chu Xisheng still didn’t take it to heart; if it was broken, it was broken. He had a spare one anyway. He continued with a ‘tsk tsk’: “You wouldn’t know, but she even has excellent cooking skills. In the cave, she used magic to cook a pot of snake meat that almost made Tie Xiaosheng and I lose our tongues. I have no idea which lucky man will benefit from this in the future.” Clank! Under Chu Yunyun’s knife, the pork bones suddenly shattered into pieces, scattering in all directions. Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but frown. This was intolerable, just a waste of ingredients. Especially now that he was injured and in need of drinking some bone soup to recover. Chu Xisheng sighed and snatched the knife from Chu Yunyun’s hand: “That’s enough, I’ll do it—” Just as he was about to wield the knife, he aggravated the wound on his left shoulder and immediately ‘hissed’ as he sharply inhaled. The talismans in Lu Luanti’s possession were limited and expensive, and she hadn’t given Chu Xisheng another ‘Ganlu Discontinuity Talisman’ for three days. Chu Xisheng could only endure the pain now. Chu Yunyun’s expression changed slightly, and she quickly opened Chu Xisheng’s shirt to check the wound on his left shoulder. After a careful look, her expression eased, and she let go: “When did you get this wound?” Chu Xisheng’s injury looked manageable and was healing well. “The day we went into the Fire Bone Cave.” Chu Xisheng straightened his clothes and smiled slightly: “You have no idea how dangerous that battle was. I fought sixteen to one, and won. It’s a stroke of luck to have only this injury.” Chu Yunyun paid no attention to the pride in Chu Xisheng’s voice. Her gaze showed understanding as she recalled the scene she had seen in the hot spring that day. Searᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. So was Lu Luanti healing Chu Xisheng at that time? Had she misunderstood? Chu Yunyun felt inexplicably better, and her frustrations dissolved. Chu Yunyun then took over chopping the ribs into smaller pieces, and Chu Xisheng followed by preparing the soup. He also stir-fried some meat scraped from the bones, and they had buns with the dishes for breakfast. Chu Xisheng talked about his experiences in the Fire Bone Cave, while Chu Yunyun quietly listened. When she heard how Chu Xisheng tactically defeated sixteen foes, a glint appeared in Chu Yunyun’s eyes, and the corners of her lips lifted slightly. Afterwards, she specially fetched a few buckets of water for Chu Xisheng to wash up. But when she was packing his luggage, she noticed Eagle Sword Duhong’s sword and three Hundred-refined Light Steel Sabers in Chu Xisheng’s belongings, causing her brows to furrow deeply. The reason she left Eagle Sword Duhong’s sword behind at the scene and didn’t take it was because she feared all the troubles that would follow. Such identifiable items could pose a huge risk even if sold on the black market. They could lose everything if they weren’t careful with their current circumstances. Especially now that her distinctive style of using brute strength without True Yuan was very noticeable. Noticing where her gaze was fixed, Chu Xisheng chuckled: “Don’t worry, I’ve altered the sword a bit. Others will only connect it to Tie Xiaosheng, and at worst, Lu Luanti will take the blame for us. Besides, Lu Luanti dissolved Eagle Sword Duhong’s body with Corpse Dissolving Water. You don’t have to go hunting in West Mountain these days. Later, let’s go to the black market together in Hedong and sell these swords. They should fetch us six hundred to seven hundred taels of Demon Silver, enough to help you advance to Ninth Grade.” Chu Yunyun hesitated for a moment, then put the sword away. She was actually quite short on money. Don’t think that sorcerers don’t need secret medicines to advance, but the various resources they consume are even more than what martial cultivators do. For every spell they practice, a large amount of Demon Silver is required. Sorcerers need to utilize the power contained in Demon Silver to inscribe various Elixir Talismans within their Spirit Seed, which serves as the core of their spells. The key for a sorcerer to advance from the lower Ninth Rank to the upper Ninth Rank is to master three different spells. The annoying part is, the stronger the spell, the more Demon Silver is needed. “Oh, right,” Chu Xisheng remembered something else, “Yunyun, do you know who in the Martial Arts Academy is the best informed, has extensive connections, and is a gossip? Hmm, it would be best if they have some prestige among the Inner Sect Disciples and are credible.” He usually was either carrying out assignments or focused on training in martial arts and hadn’t paid attention to the comings and goings within the academy. Chu Yunyun, however, tilted her head, showing a look of puzzlement. A gossip with prestige? Isn’t that contradictory? However, within the Martial Arts Academy, there indeed were such people. “There are some, two brothers. One is called Hu Kan, and the other is Hu Lai. They are also disciples of our Eastern Courtyard, you should have seen them. Chubby, one with a character ‘八’ for brows, the other with a character ‘八’ for beard, very easy to recognize.” The light flickered in Chu Xisheng’s eyes as he remembered these two figures. He then vigorously cleaned himself from head to toe, washing away the stench of sour and musty odor all over his body, and then went out with twenty taels of Demon Silver. He now needed more Martial Arts Points to exchange for “Time Instant Shadow Body.” Having gotten a preliminary understanding of the system’s mechanisms and regulations, he also had some ideas he wanted to try out at the Martial Arts Academy. Until now, his Martial Arts Points and reputation had been growing passively. What would happen if he actively promoted his own reputation, he wondered? ※※※※ After returning to the Martial Arts Academy, Lu Luanti went back to her Disciple Residence and slept well into the morning. She lived in a small single room, about forty square feet, all to herself. This room was quite expensive, demanding an extra ten taels of Demon Silver each month, specialized for wealthy disciples within the academy. But Lu Luanti preferred to pay more rather than share a room with others. She slept so deeply that when she woke up at noon, her head still felt dizzy and groggy. It was already lunchtime by the time she woke up, and Lu Luanti immediately headed to the cafeteria with her lunch box. As she queued in the cafeteria to get her meal, she overheard people whispering behind her. Originally, Lu Luanti didn’t care, but when she picked up the name “Chu Xisheng,” she pricked up her ears. “—Is it that Chu Xisheng who saved us in the Library, Junior Brother Chu?” “Who else but him? That guy has seriously offended the Inner City Long Family. But he is really incredible. After escaping into the Fire Bone Cave, it was like he was slicing through melons and vegetables, slaying more than thirty of the Inner City Long Family’s clan soldiers.” Lu Luanti pondered how the news about the Fire Bone Cave had spread to the academy so quickly. She turned around and saw a fat man with character ‘八’ eyebrows five steps away, going “tsk tsk” as he spoke, “You know about Heng’s Eighteen Riders, right? Three of them fell to his hands this time. Junior Brother Chu only had some minor injuries.” Lu Luanti recognized that was Hu Kan, who along with his brother Hu Lai, were well-known busybodies within the academy, always in the know. There was also a group of people gathered around Hu Kan. Someone spoke with skepticism, “Impossible, the Long Family’s clan soldiers all have the strength of our Martial Arts Academy’s Outer Disciples. Those from Heng’s Eighteen Riders all wear Heavy Armor and are skilled at using Combined Attack Formations. Even Eighth Rank martial cultivators would find them troublesome upon encounter.” “What do you know? This is the news that came from within the Long Family.” With a sneer, Hu Kan said dismissively, “Who do you think Junior Brother Chu is? He’s the one the head of the academy praised highly, saying his talent with the saber is comparable to the True Inheritor, Li Fenglai. His blade is already fast, and now his cultivation has made great progress. His Primordial Skill has reached the lower Ninth Rank, what’s so difficult about slaying a few of Heng’s Eighteen Riders? His Sword Skill is probably the top at the Ninth Rank tier—” The corners of Lu Luanti’s lips twitched, thinking that this was just boasting. Chu Xisheng’s saber skills were indeed fast and his talent strong, but at present, his Sword Skill was at most at the upper Ninth Rank level, still far from the term ‘top notch.’ She didn’t pay it much mind. After getting her meal, she went to sit down at a table to eat alone. However, the group of disciples at the next table was also discussing Chu Xisheng. Yet the more Lu Luanti listened, the more she felt something was amiss.
