Seeing the old man, Qin Chu was filled with shock. When he was in the Library Pavilion, he felt that the old man's gaze was off, but he didn't expect him to actually follow him here.
“Are you a Utility Disciple? Even Inner Sect Disciples don't live as comfortably as you do!” The old man walked around Qin Chu's large vat, then looked at the wooden house and said.
Qin Chu jumped out of the large vat, not bothering to rinse off, and directly put on his robes. With someone watching him by the vat, he couldn't comfortably take a bath.
The old man looked at the medicinal liquid in the large vat, then scrutinized Qin Chu, “Although it's a Utility Disciple's robe, it can't hide your temperament and sharp edge.”
In fact, Qin Chu indeed possessed a sharp edge and heroic spirit that ordinary teenagers lacked. Despite wearing coarse cloth robes, his entire being exuded cleanliness from the inside out.
“Senior, if you have any instructions, just tell Qin Chu.” Qin Chu was puzzled, not knowing what the old man's purpose was in coming here.
“Do you know that you're on the verge of death, kid?” The old man sat down on Qin Chu's exclusive wooden stool in front of the wooden house.
“Are you talking about those guys from Qingyun Peak, old man? I'm not afraid of them. Later, I'll start with the Outer Sect and deal with all of them.” Qin Chu glanced at Qingzhu Peak and said.
The old man frowned, “What nonsense are you talking about? Don't you know what's going on with yourself? With Saint Blood in your body and no strong protection, aren't you afraid of being cut down and having your Saint Blood extracted?”
Upon hearing the old man's words, Qin Chu's face changed drastically, and his body swayed, almost losing his balance. This was his secret; how could it have been discovered?
“It seems you know it yourself, kid. I don't know how you hid it in the past, but now it has been exposed! Tell me what's going on! With Saint Blood in your body, I don't believe you have no background. If you don't explain yourself today, then this Broken Cliff, either you jump down yourself, or I'll throw you down.” The old man looked at Qin Chu and said.
“How should I address you, Senior?” Qin Chu looked at the old man and asked.
The old man straightened his body, “It's been a long time since anyone asked for my name. I am Mo Daozi, one of the Grand Elders of the Qingyun Sect, so any schemes you want to play in the Qingyun Sect are useless!”
Mo Daozi… Qin Chu was stunned for a moment. Wasn't this the one who left annotations on the Tian Yuan Residual Scroll?
“Elder Mo, this Disciple indeed has a purpose in coming to the Qingyun Sect, but there is no ill will. The situation is like this: this Disciple's background is a mystery. Fourteen years ago…” Qin Chu realized that the matter of his Saint Blood had been discovered by Mo Daozi, so he no longer concealed anything.
Mo Daozi carefully scrutinized Qin Chu, “Do you know how difficult it is to deduce the secrets of heaven? Why should I deduce for you?”
Damn it! Qin Chu's mind went blank for a moment. The old man in front of him was the Elder Mo he was looking for, who could deduce the past and future.
“Then, Elder Mo, please tell me what conditions you require. Whether it's climbing a mountain of blades or descending into a sea of fire, I, Qin Chu, will do it!” Having found his target, Qin Chu naturally had to seize the opportunity.
“There are many people who want to climb mountains of blades and descend into seas of fire for me. If I call out to the Disciples of the Qingyun Sect, countless people can do it!” Mo Daozi looked at Qin Chu and said.
Qin Chu was very speechless. He also knew that Mo Daozi was speaking the truth. He truly had nothing at the moment that could make others value him.
“In this vast world, with its millions of miles of territory, there are only a few families with Saint Blood talent. Even among families with Saint Blood, it's rare to see a descendant with Saint Blood appear for many years. Your origin is not simple, and it's a big mess. Right now, even a thousand of you jumping into it wouldn't cause a ripple.” Elder Mo looked at Qin Chu and said.
He was disheartened, but Qin Chu said nothing. Knowing who Elder Mo was and where to find Elder Mo was a huge gain.
“Drip your blood to make this ring recognize you as its master. After wearing it, it can conceal your Saint Blood aura. You must never take it off. I need to think about some things!” After tossing a ring to Qin Chu, Mo Daozi turned and left the Broken Cliff.
Looking at the ring in his hand, Qin Chu found it very beautiful. A small Dragon on the ring connected head to tail, exuding an ancient, luxurious beauty.
He bit his finger and dripped a drop of fresh blood onto it.
The fresh blood was absorbed by the ring under Qin Chu's gaze. Qin Chu felt a connection between his mind and the ring, and there was also a space inside—a Storage Ring!
Qin Chu knew that this ring could not only conceal his aura but also had an internal space to store items. However, he felt that this item needed to be hidden well, as it could easily cause trouble.
Mo Daozi returned to the Library Pavilion, where he waved his hand, dismissing the two Disciples on duty at the entrance.
“Senior Brother, what's the situation?” another old man asked.
“A few years ago, I deduced that staying here would bring some gains. Now the gain has arrived. That fellow has Saint Blood in his body. This is a great crisis for the Qingyun Sect, but also a great opportunity,” Mo Daozi said.
“The Saint Blood Families are all colossal entities. How could he have come here? Junior Brother just checked around, and there are no masters hidden near the Qingyun Sect. He has no one behind him,” the other old man said.
Mo Daozi shook his head, “This is a fellow of unknown origin. His purpose in coming to the Qingyun Sect is to find me, to deduce his own background.”
“So, he has no ties to the outside. There's no problem if we hide him,” the other old man said. He was Ling Yunzi, another Grand Elder of the Qingyun Sect.
Mo Daozi glanced in the direction of the Qingyun Sect's Servant Hall, “It's not as simple as you think, Junior Brother. How could he not investigate his own background? It's not impossible for me to help him deduce, but it won't be that easy. When he comes tomorrow, I'll talk to him.”
Qin Chu Cultivated Origin Qi for a night, then practiced his sword techniques for a while, and then went with Bai Yu to the Treasure Pavilion to exchange for some Medicinal Pills.
Qin Chu was a first-tier Gathering Yuan level Cultivator, so he exchanged for Gathering Yuan Pills. The price was not very high, three hundred points per bottle. He exchanged for three bottles, while Bai Yu exchanged for two bottles of Solidifying Yuan Pills.
After getting the Medicinal Pills, Qin Chu and Bai Yu returned to the Servant Hall. When they returned to the Servant Building, they saw Er Pang arguing with the official Disciples of Qingzhu Peak, along with the Utility Disciples.
“What's going on?” Qin Chu asked.
“You Utility Disciples are too arrogant! You won't wash socks? Today you all have to wash underwear! If you don't wash them, we'll beat you until you do!” a Qingyun Sect Outer Sect Disciple yelled at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu's body flashed, and with a raised right foot, he made intimate contact with the Outer Sect Disciple's face. “Er Pang, starting today, we in the Servant Hall will take care of the sanitation of Qingzhu Peak and look after the daily lives of the Sect Elders. As for the other nonsense from Outer Sect Disciples and Inner Sect Disciples, we won't bother with it. We are the Utility Disciples of Qingzhu Peak, not theirs.”
