Furong Sword
The Ancestor Nanming glared at him with extreme disgust. This guy's habit of resorting to physical violence was truly annoying. However, since he himself had just made a mistake, he couldn't very well argue with him, so he turned and said, "Bi Changchun, try again!"
Bi Changchun turned around and said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's really not necessary. I can't break your rules, otherwise you'll be in endless trouble when I go to the Eastern Pole Sacred Land."
"No way!" Nong Zhu darted between the two, patting his chest and saying, "If we don't tell anyone, how will anyone know that Nanming broke the rules?"
"Nong Zhu, stop talking. Rules are rules. If you break them once, you can break them again. The rules of Xuanxuan Island cannot be broken on my behalf. I can't afford to owe this favor," Bi Changchun said.
"What kind of ridiculous rules are those!" Nong Zhu shouted at the Ancestor Nanming in a rather unreasonable manner.
"I..." Nanming was speechless. He understood that Nong Zhu was anxious about Bi Changchun's matter, which was why she spoke without thinking.
"Nong Zhu, don't make things difficult for Nanming," Bi Changchun said, frowning.
Nong Zhu glared angrily at the Ancestor Nanming, who gave a helpless bitter smile and bowed to Bi Changchun, saying, "Bi Changchun, I'm really sorry. I'll take my leave now." He felt too ashamed to stay any longer.
Bi Changchun smiled faintly, knowing that he would feel uncomfortable staying, and unusually raised his hand to thank him, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, don't bother seeing me out!"
"I wouldn't dare!" Nanming shook his head repeatedly in shame, then let out a clear whistle. A moment later, his red Flying Dragon flapped its wings and flew over from afar. A phantom landed on the Flying Dragon's back. Just as Nanming, riding the Flying Dragon, was about to leave, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped his forehead, as if he had remembered something.
"Bi Changchun, the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention about to begin. Perhaps we can buy the materials we need. If we have all the materials, have Nong Zhu bring this to me, and I will come immediately." Nanming casually tossed out a dark shadow.
Nong Zhu caught it casually and saw that it was the black fang that he had taken from the Netherworld Gate to ask for his help. Bi Changchun was stunned and said, "How can this be? I have another one here. I can't break your rules."
Nanming waved his hand and laughed, "My rules don't say that you can't return what you've accepted. Bi Changchun, don't make me leave Shuntian Island with guilt again."
I still owe him a favor! Bi Changchun wasn't one to mince words, and he raised his hand a second time to thank him, saying, "No need to see me out!"
"Respectfully bidding farewell to Senior Nanming!" On the other side, Ziyi and Furong bowed together, while Wood Lady Mu lagged behind a few steps.
"Farewell!" Nanming returned the greeting and casually waved to the three women. The Flying Dragon beneath his feet let out a roar, then flapped its wings and quickly flew away, disappearing as a black dot...
Nong Zhu weighed the item in his hand, chuckled with satisfaction, and said, "This old bastard knows what's good for him." He tossed it into his Storage Bag, then brandished the mixed-gold longsword in his hand and said, "This thing is useless to you anyway. Why don't you leave it with me for now, and I'll keep it safe for you."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a powerful force yanked the sword from his hand. The sword floated in front of Bi Changchun was now Fei Feng carving something on its blade with two fingers.
Just as Nong Zhu reached up to see the words "Furong" engraved on the sword, Bi Changchun waved his sleeve, and the golden sword flew out with a "whoosh," floating straight in front of Furong, who was about to turn around, emitting a faint golden light.
The three women exchanged bewildered glances, then looked at the two senior experts by the lake, unsure of their intentions. Suddenly, the Ziyi exclaimed, "Eh! There are words on it, 'Furong,' ah! Furong, it says your name on it. Ah..."
Ziyi immediately realized that it was a magical treasure that Elder Bi had given to Furong. She licked her lips with her bright red tongue and nudged Furong with envy, saying, "Why don't you thank Elder Bi? There are words engraved on it by Elder Bi. It's a gift for you!"
Wood Lady Mu was also filled with envy. The spirit treasure that the Chief Punishment Envoy personally engraved!
"Ah! Is it for me?" Furong was suddenly at a loss, and looked weakly at Bi Changchun, only to see Bi Changchun nodding slightly to her from a distance.
"Thank you, Master!" Furong quickly knelt down and kowtowed. After staying here for a while, she had already followed Nong Zhu's instructions and Bi Changchun's tacit approval, and called Bi Changchun" Master" along with Yue Qianchou.
Furong was somewhat confused and didn't understand what this meant. She just thought that it was her duty to call Bi Changchun "Master" after Yue Qianchou.
Nong Zhu secretly sighed in her heart that this girl was lucky to have married such a good man. Although that guy was not a very good person, he was very good to this girl, otherwise he would not have sent her to Shuntian Island.
As it turned out, this girl must have accumulated some good karma in her past life, because she actually caught Bi Changchun's eye. The usually aloof Bi Changchun suddenly asked Nong Zhu one day, "Yue Qianchou is my disciple, Furong is my disciple's wife. Logically speaking, shouldn't this girl also call me 'Master' like Yue Qianchou? Calling me 'Senior' seems a bit inappropriate?"
At that moment, Nong Zhu seemed to have been struck by lightning, standing there completely dumbfounded. After realizing what had happened, she kept picking at her ears with her fingers, thinking she had misheard. She quickly asked, "Old Bi, what did you say? Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."
"Hmph!" Bi Changchun turned and left with a very unpleasant expression.
The Ancestor Nanming was still present at the time, shook his head and clicked his tongue, saying, "That girl Furong is so lucky!"
"Nanming, what did Old Bi just say?" Nong Zhu still couldn't believe it and pulled Ancestor Nanming aside to ask again. After Ancestor Nanming repeated Bi Changchun's words, Nong Zhu was stunned again.
I've known Bi Changchun for many years. This old guy is a man of steel, never yielding to anyone or anything. He's the one who gets favors from others, never the one asking anyone for anything. When have I ever heard him say anything like that?
Although it was just a casual remark, the meaning was clear: he wanted Furong to call him "Master" like Yue Qianchou. However, given his proud and aloof nature, he would never willingly ask Furong to change her address. He then spoke to Nong Zhu, and if Nong Zhu wasn't too stupid, she would understand what to do.
However, Nong Zhu insisted that he repeat it again, and how could Bi Changchun possibly say it again? Naturally, he turned and left with a very unpleasant expression.
"Slap!" Realizing what had happened, Nong Zhu slapped herself hard across the face.
The Ancestor Nanming chuckled and said, "Smash it, smash it hard, smash it again." It was meant as a sarcastic remark, but to everyone's surprise, Nong Zhu actually smash it hard again, leaving the Ancestor Nanming dumbfounded.
When did this guy become so obedient? The Ancestor Nanming curiously stuck his head out and asked suspiciously, "Draw another one for me to see!"
"Go to hell!" Nong Zhu kicked him to the ground and turned to leave. This caused the Ancestor Nanming to jump up inexplicably and curse... "Madman!"
A short while later, Nong Zhu dragged the terrified Furong back. After finding Bi Changchun, he pointed to the ground and said to Furong, "Kneel down. From today onwards, you will follow Yue Qianchou and call him Master."
Bi Changchun was seething with anger and was about to lash out at Nong Zhu. With his status in the Cultivation World, did he need to force anyone to call him master? As long as he spoke, the people who wanted to beg him would be lined up so long they couldn't see the end of the line.
I thought it was something serious! Turns out it's just this. Furong paused, then realized it wasn't wrong to call this man "Master" like Yue Qianchou; it was the proper thing to do. She immediately knelt down and weakly called out, "Master."
Bi Changchun, who was filled with rage, had all his anger and fury vanished the moment he was called "Master." He stood there stunned for a moment before raising his hand and saying, "Get up!"
From then on, Furong began to call Bi Changchun "Master".
Nong Zhu still can't understand it. This girl seems like an idiot, and she's timid. What does she have that's better than her own daughter? She's not even as pretty! She's recommended her daughter, Ziyi, to Old Man Bi as a disciple several times. But the old man just won't take a liking to her. It's infuriating!
When asked about her background, Furong explained it very clearly. She was originally just the illegitimate daughter of an elder on Fu Xian Island, and an ugly girl who suffered all kinds of bullying. Later, Yue Qianchou used the "Ruyi Pill" to help her restore her appearance.
Speaking of the 'Ruyi Pill,' Nong Zhu was furious with Yue Qianchou again. Last time in Dayang City, that kid actually claimed to have only one, which Ziyi snatched, and he kept demanding compensation. After asking Ziyi, he learned that the kid had actually given it to him voluntarily; there was no stealing at all. He'd been lying to him, and there was more than one. "You little brat, just you wait! Hand it over obediently first..."
Putting that aside for now, even if Furong is from Fu Xian Island, the number one sect in the Huaxia Cultivation World, she still can't compare to the daughter of Mr. Nongzhu, the renowned Nascent Spirit Transformation stage expert and lord of the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest!
After much thought, the only explanation is that Furong was lucky. Perhaps Old Man Bi simply extended his affection to her because of his precious disciple. In any case, that title of "Master" is extremely valuable! In the Cultivation World, it's comparable to any powerful Law Treasure.
As long as Furong reveals that her master is Bi Changchun, she's guaranteed to be able to roam freely in the Cultivation World. As long as Bi Changchun is alive, who would dare to lay a finger on her? Wow! This girl's status has skyrocketed overnight after just one word. "Master!"
At this moment, Furong stood up and, with a mixture of piety and excitement, reached out her hands to grab the sword. Even if she was naive, she knew that this sword was a spiritual treasure, one she had only heard of in legends before. She never imagined that she would have one herself today. Moreover, it was originally the personal sword of the Number One Expert Under Heaven, but now it had been bestowed upon her.
Before she could even grasp it, the sword lost its grip and gently fell into her hand. Furong was holding it, bowing reverently to Bi Changchun, when suddenly her hand felt light. The Ziyi beside her, exclaiming, snatched the sword away, caressing it with obvious delight. Then, hugging Furong, she sobbed, "Furong, I'm so envious of you!"
"Hmph!" Nong Zhu, seeing her daughter's pitiful, drooling expression, felt a surge of jealousy. Her face turned ashen as she turned to Bi Changchun and said, "Old Bi, what do you mean by this? Given our relationship, you can't show favoritism! What other treasures do you have on Shuntian Island? Find one, inscribe it, and give it to Ziyi!"
