Bi Changchun Was Wrongly Accused

Bi Changchun didn't beat around the bush. He said directly, "As you know, before I go to the 'Eastern Pole Sacred Land,' I need Nanming to refine a suitable spiritual treasure for me. Now that the Deficient Flame Mysterious Fruit is destroyed, I'm afraid I can't invite him. If you can help me invite him, Ziyi will naturally have a share of this Method Formula. Of course, the premise is that he is willing to come and help me refine the treasure."

"Uh... that old guy has a very strange temper, I'm afraid he won't give me face." Nong Zhu pondered, rubbing his chin, then suddenly his expression hardened and he said, "Why bother being polite to him? Just tie him up and bring him here. I doubt he's a match for you."

"If kidnapping is useful, why would I need you to remind me?" Bi Changchun retorted indifferently.

"Hehe!" Nong Zhu chuckled awkwardly, "That's true, that guy is impervious to both soft and hard tactics. Even if we kidnap him, it'll be useless. He might even end up having to worship an ancestor, let alone refine anything." Then his face fell, and he spread his hands, saying, "I'm helpless too, Lao Bi, you're clearly making things difficult for me!"

A dark shadow flashed out of Bi Changchun's Storage Bag and floated in front of Nong Zhu. It was pitch black and lusterless. It was the Sky Swallowing Beast fang that Yue Qianchou had sawed off from the Netherworld Gate. Nong Zhu slapped his forehead and suddenly realized, "How could I forget this? Take this, and I guarantee that old man Nanming will obediently follow. There's no time to lose, I'll go now and come back as soon as possible."

He grabbed it, glanced at it, and stuffed it into his Storage Bag. He turned around, then stopped and looked back, saying, "Old Bi, let's get this straight. I'll just lure that old man from Nanming here. Whether he agrees to help you refine the treasure is not something I can force."

Bi Changchun neither agreed nor disagreed, sitting there silently. Nong Zhu chuckled and said, "If you don't speak, I'll take that as a yes. Don't go back on your word later. Alright! I'll make a trip to 'Xuanxuan Island' and bring that old man from Nanming here." As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared in an instant, and the sound of rapid flight breaking through the air came from outside.

Ziyi stared outside, slightly dazed. She knew that her master had made this trip for her sake.

"Master, just who is this Ancestor Nanming? He doesn't even give you face?" Yue Qianchou asked, somewhat puzzled. This wasn't the first time he'd heard someone mention the Ancestor Nanming. Even Bi Changchun, the Number One Expert Under Heaven, had to go to great lengths to cultivate the Deficient Flame Mysterious Fruit to invite him over in order to curry favor with him. His arrogance was truly astounding.

Bi Changchun now places high hopes on Yue Qianchou, and naturally, he is generous with his knowledge of the stories and anecdotes about these top figures in the Cultivation World. He then slowly said, "There are five extraordinary people in the Cultivation World today, and Nanming is one of them. His cultivation mid Spirit Transformation stage. Although he is not the most outstanding in terms of cultivation, when it comes to the skill of weapon crafting, if he says he is second, no one dares to say he is first. He is the number one weapon crafting master in the Cultivation World."

Five extraordinary figures in the Cultivation World? Is that even a thing? You're probably one of them! Yue Qianchou nodded and said, "No wonder Senior Nong Zhu said he had a very strange temper. It turns out he's arrogant because he's talented."

"That's not entirely true," Bi Changchun shook his head slightly. "Since the High Antiquity war, the Cultivation World has not seen any other master craftsmen capable of forging spiritual treasures. Nanming's sudden emergence has attracted the covetousness of many, all wanting to recruit him. Some have even resorted to threats and bribes. Nanming has been overwhelmed by these troubles and has thus gone into seclusion, residing on Xuanxuan Island. It's very difficult for ordinary people to persuade him to come. I helped him resolve some troubles, and to repay a favor, he forged a treasure for me once. Unfortunately, the success rate of forging a high-grade spiritual treasure is too low, and it failed."

Yue Qianchou secretly guessed that the so-called "solved trouble" was probably just deterring those who were trying to coerce and entice the Ancestor Nanming. Otherwise, what trouble would require the Number One Expert Under Heaven to resolve? This master is a super-skilled fighter!

"Since the Ancestor Nanming is so difficult to invite, why was it possible for Master to invite him again when he cultivated the Deficient Flame Mysterious Fruit? Is it simply because his mount likes to eat the Deficient Flame Mysterious Fruit?" Yue Qianchou asked, voicing his doubts.

Bi Changchun explained with unprecedented patience, "Because the last refining attempt failed, he felt he hadn't repaid my favor, but he didn't want to break his own rules and act rashly. So he gave me some seeds of the Deficient Flame Mysterious Fruit. He told me to collect all the refining materials and invite him again after the Deficient Flame Mysterious Fruit matured. There are only three chances in total. Regardless of whether the refining is successful or not, the favor he owes me will be wiped clean."

"So, Senior Nong Zhu, you were able to invite Ancestor Nanming here with just a beast tooth pried off the Netherworld Gate?" Yue Qianchou asked respectfully, his tone tinged with a humble desire to learn. Ziyi listened quietly to the side, not daring to disturb him; she dared not be too presumptuous in front of Elder Bi.

Bi Changchun answered without hesitation, "This is the rule he set. Whoever can offer him a rare material that moves him can invite him to leave Xuanxuan Island. As for the level of the treasure he is asked to refine, it depends on whether the material offered to him is of sufficient quality."

"I see!" Yue Qianchou seemed to understand something, then suddenly remembered the five extraordinary figures in the Cultivation World he had mentioned, and couldn't help but ask again, "Master, besides Ancestor Nanming, who are the other four of the five extraordinary figures in the Cultivation World you mentioned?"

Upon hearing this, the woman in Ziyi looked at Bi Changchun with a gleam in her eyes. Clearly, she knew that the one who was one of the five extraordinary people in the Cultivation World was the wiry old man in front of her.

Bi Changchun slowly said, "Besides Nanming of Xuanxuan Island, there is Wen Lanfeng of the Biyuan Kingdom and Lu Yanqing of Lingfang Valley. There is also the world's number one fortune teller Master Tianjue. He is the one who predicted that the Star Pearl would appear in the Huaxia Cultivation World. However, he has already passed away. To be precise, only four of the five extraordinary people in the Cultivation World remain..." He paused here, not revealing the fifth extraordinary person.

In fact, Yue Qianchou had already guessed it was him. He himself would definitely be embarrassed to say that he was one of the five extraordinary people. The woman in Ziyi next to him stuck out her tongue and said playfully to Yue Qianchou, "There is another one who is the leader of the five extraordinary people, which is Elder Bi himself."

"I already guessed that. Master is the Number One Expert Under Heaven. If even Master can't be ranked among them, then these five extraordinary people are probably just names without substance." Yue Qianchou flattered him lightly, then turned to look at Ziyi and frowned, "So you knew all along. Why have I never heard you say it?"

The woman in Ziyi glared at her and immediately retorted, "You didn't ask me. I thought you already knew. Who knew you didn't even know this?"

"Uh... alright, you're very knowledgeable." Yue Qianchou didn't want to argue with her in front of his master, so he asked, "Then tell me, why are Wen Lanfeng and Lu Yanqing listed as one of the five most extraordinary people in the Cultivation World?"

Ziyi glanced at Bi Changchun, and seeing that he showed no sign of anything amiss, she immediately said with a hint of boasting, "Wen Lanfeng of the Biyuan Kingdom is also a master at the late Spirit Transformation stage, and not just late Spirit Transformation stage. He is the second-ranked expert in the Cultivation World after Elder Bi, second only to Elder Bi. He is also one of the five extraordinary figures in the Cultivation World because of his exceptionally high cultivation level."

Wen Lanfeng from the Biyuan Kingdom? Yue Qianchou secretly remembered this person. At the Spirit Transformation stage, someone whose cultivation was second only to Bi Changchun was definitely extraordinary. He would have to be careful in the future.

As Ziyi spoke, a look of admiration suddenly appeared on her face. This piqued Yue Qianchou's curiosity, who wondered, "Could there be someone this girl admires more than Bi Changchun?" She continued, her voice radiant, "That Senior Lu Yanqing of Lingfang Valley. She's a female senior, her cultivation has reached the mid Spirit Transformation stage realm, and she's the number one healing master in the Cultivation World. It's said that as long as someone isn't dead, there's no one she can't revive. And..."

"And what?" Yue Qianchou asked suspiciously, thinking to himself, could this girl be a fan of Lu Yanqing?

"Although I have never met Senior Lu Yanqing, I have heard that she is the most beautiful woman in the world. Countless experts in the Cultivation World admire her appearance and pursue her, but none of them can catch her eye. Even Senior Wen Lanfeng, one of the five extraordinary people, fought with Elder Bi for her..." Ziyi stuck out her tongue at this point, glanced at Bi Changchun, and dared not continue.

Seeing her hesitant expression and considering her unfinished words, Yue Qianchou was filled with doubt. He thought to himself, "Could this most beautiful woman in the world be so beautiful that she could make the Number One Expert Under Heaven and second-in-command jealous? And so, these two peerless masters fought over her? Damn! This news is far too shocking!"

Yue Qianchou glanced at his master with a flickering gaze, not daring to look him in the eye, nor daring to ask any further questions lest he touch upon Old Man Bi's sore spot. However, his mind was filled with endless speculation... It seemed that the most beautiful woman in the world wasn't with Old Man Bi! Could it be that Old Man Bi, the Number One Expert Under Heaven, failed to snatch the most beautiful woman from the number two? Very gossipy news!

Bi Changchun saw Yue Qianchou's lewd and obscene appearance, he immediately knew that his disciple had gone off on a wild goose chase. He immediately said to Ziyi, "He doesn't know much about this level. Since you've already told him, tell him the whole story so that he doesn't just have a vague understanding and make wild guesses."

"Yes!" Ziyi bowed respectfully. Since Elder Bi had spoken, she had nothing to hold back and continued to Yue Qianchou, "That Senior Wen Lanfeng is said to be one of the most fervent pursuers of Senior Lu Yanqing, but Senior Lu Yanqing has no affection for him. Until one time, Senior Lu was so entangled with Senior Wen that she said to Senior Wen, 'If you can defeat Bi Changchun, the Number One Expert Under Heaven, I will become your dao companion.'"

"Ah!" Yue Qianchou was dumbfounded, completely different from his previous guess. It turned out that the second-best expert in the world was a lovesick fool. The rest was predictable: Bi Changchun inexplicably ended up fighting this lovesick fool.

Ziyi glanced at Bi Changchun, stuck out her tongue again, and said, "I heard from my master that after Senior Wen heard what Senior Lu said, he immediately sought out Elder Bi for a duel. Elder Bi was initially confused, but upon learning Senior Wen's intentions, he flew into a rage and attacked without mercy, severely injuring Senior Wen in less than ten moves. If my master hadn't stopped him, Senior Wen probably wouldn't have survived. Afterwards, I heard that Senior Wen never went to see Senior Lu again and has been cultivating in seclusion within the Biyuan Kingdom ever since..."
