“He left?” The corner of the mysterious scholar’s mouth twitched. “Then, did he leave behind the Sixth Stage Celestial, or at least tell you two Fellow Daoists to relay something to me?”

Island Master Tian Tiankong said, “Nope.”

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman asked, “I think that he might have forgotten. Scholar, when did you make an appointment with little friend Shuhang?”

“When I was in the group. All of you were there at the time.” The mysterious scholar looked up at the sky, feeling his heart stifled.

Not only did little friend Shuhang forget, but all of you also did!

“…” Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman.

As Scholar Sober Eye had advanced on the path of cultivation further, his sense of existence had dropped even lower.

In the past, people would merely remember his daoist name incorrectly. Later on, his existence would be forgotten every now and then, but now even the things related to him were forgotten.

If this were to continue, when Scholar Sober Eye genuinely mastered his cultivation technique in the future, would n.o.body notice him even when he was standing right in front of them?

Would Swordsman Sober Eye change profession, and become an a.s.sa.s.sin?

“Anyway, during the few days Fellow Daoist Sober Eye lost contact with the outside world, some things happened. The annual event of the cultivation world started ahead of schedule, and the theme of this event is counter-hunting the Celestials. So… Fellow Daoist Sober Eye, if you have the time, you can choose to partic.i.p.ate in this event and catch some Celestials,” Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman reminded. “To be honest, I suspect that the Sixth Stage Celestial Shuhang had might have already been exchanged for rewards.”

He was certain that little friend Shuhang had forgotten his appointment with Fellow Daoist Sober Eye like them. And since he had forgotten the agreement, the Sixth Stage Celestial he had would naturally be exchanged for rewards!

The mysterious scholar was in a foul mood. “Forget it, I’m not interested in this kind of event. Is there anything you need help with here on Heavenly Field Island? I’ll stay for a while and help you out.”

Since I’m already here, I might do something.

“Thank you, Scholar. Actually, I’m currently here on Heavenly Field Island waiting for people like you to come and help out.” Island Master Tian Tiankong let out a hearty laugh.

“…” The mysterious scholar.

He felt his heart become even more stifled.

The scholar asked, “Alright then, what can I do for you?”

Island Master Tian Tiankong took out his map of Heavenly Field Island, and said, “The island-guarding formation on the eastern side is completely broken. It has only been Fellow Daoist Seven Lives Talisman and I who have been desperately repairing the formation. So, can I leave the eastern portion of the formation to Fellow Daoist Sober Eye? The materials and spirit stones needed for the repair of the formation have already been prepared.”

The scholar looked at the map and nodded. “This is a small matter, you can leave it to me.”

Island Master Tian Tiankong gratefully said, “Thank you, Fellow Daoist Sober Eye.”

The scholar raised his head and looked at the sky. “If you’re really moved, don’t call me Fellow Daoist Sober Eye. If you can’t remember my daoist name, follow Fellow Daoist Seven Lives Talisman’s example and simply call me ‘scholar’.”

I’m Drunken Sun, how is that in any way related to Sober Eye?

Island Master Tian Tiankong immediately replied, “Okay, Scholar.”

❄️❄️❄️

The scholar was already a Seventh Stage Venerable—although n.o.body among the fellow daoists of the Nine Provinces Number One Group might remember that.

He repaired the island-guarding formation rapidly.

The formation of the area he was a.s.signed to was repaired in a mere half an hour.

After he completed the repair, he sat under a tree to rest, having decided to go and find Island Master Tian Tiankong in a while to see if there was anything more he could help with.

At this time, Island Master Tian Tiankong and Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman came to his area.

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman said, “Eh? How is the formation here already repaired? I remember that the formation in this area was completely broken before, right?”

Island Master Tian Tiankong said, “My family’s formations don’t have an auto-repair function.”

The scholar was speechless.

It was me! It was me!

I repaired your formation!

Half an hour ago, you yourself asked me to help you repair the formation!

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman said, “If we can’t remember, then forget it. Maybe it’s because we’ve been so busy recently.”

Island Master Tian Tiankong sighed. “Let’s go, we should go repair the next area.”

Then, the two left together.

The scholar cried under the tree.

He raised his sword, and flew away with a swish~.

The scholar was heading to the Jiangnan area to find little friend Song Shuhang.

He wasn’t that troubled by having to look for Shuhang anyway.

After ascending to the Seventh Stage, he needed to strengthen his life-bound magical treasure. To do so, he needed an Eighth Stage material—an Eighth Stage Dog Tooth to be accurate.

The scholar remembered that Song Shuhang had an excess supply of such materials in his hands, so he planned on trading with him.

In order to trade with little friend Song Shuhang, he had prepared an Eighth Stage ironwood stick.

In addition, he had an interesting magical treasure, a pet-shaped ‘manifestation core’.

It was a magical treasure that could be installed on any object to create a manifestation—for example, if it were to be installed on a stone, it could create a ‘stone manifestation’. If it were installed on an iron block, it could create an ‘iron manifestation’. And when installed on wood, it’d be a ‘wood manifestation’…

Of course, because it was for fun, the ‘manifestation’ did not have any power, and could only be used for chatting online or for things like serving tea.

The advantage was that its consumption is very low. An ordinary Fifth Stage spirit stone was enough to maintain the manifestation for several decades, or even over 100 years.

It was the chat group clone that Song Shuhang dreamt of.

❄️❄️❄️

Meanwhile, Song Shuhang’s ghost spirit sent the three Fourth Stage Celestials into the Inner World.

After Song Shuhang and Doudou recovered the broken Celestial aircraft, one person and one dog headed to Jiangnan University Town.

Doudou suggested, “Get the seven-seater van, I like it. It’s definitely very nice to drive.”

Song Shuhang said, “I prefer the style of an ordinary sedan. I’m going to be using this immortal boat for a long time. If I were to partic.i.p.ate in a big event in the world of cultivation in the future, wouldn’t it look strange for a seven-seater van to come flying in?”

“You think that a sedan flying over looks better?” Doudou retorted. “You might as well just get it to look like a bicycle.”

Song Shuhang said, “Bicycles are not even as good as hand-guided tractors. After all, a compet.i.tion for hand-guided tractors has been held in the world of cultivation. Moreover, there is no template for bicycles in the design drawings.”

One person and one dog discussed while flying.

In the end…

Doudou suggested, “This is it. This 9-seater minivan. The back seats are all flat; they’d be just enough for me to lie down and roll around.”

Song Shuhang thought about it. Considering that he sometimes needed to bring around more than five people, a 9-seater would be able to meet his needs quite well.

“Okay, fine. We’ll go with that.” Song Shuhang nodded. “Next, what about the mecha form?”

“Does that need to be considered? Of course the bigger, the better,” Doudou said with s.h.i.+ning eyes. “Big is justice, firepower is king.”

“Right.” Song Shuhang chose the biggest mecha form.

Then, he relayed his choice to the shop operator, Fairy Little Ke.

Little Ke replied, “Okay, Senior Yellow Mountain. If you’ve decided, I will arrange the order for you. I can have it be s.h.i.+pped to you tonight at the latest. Please leave a delivery address.”

It can be s.h.i.+pped over tonight?

So fast?

After thinking for a while, Song Shuhang left the address of Medicine Master’s building to Fairy Little Ke. “Should I pay after the goods arrive?”

Little Ke replied, “Yes, we will get in contact with Senior Yellow Mountain for the payment when the goods have been delivered. Please don’t worry.”

Mm-hm, they would get in contact with ‘Senior Yellow Mountain’, not ‘Doudou’.

“No problem, do you need me to give you a five-star rating?” Song Shuhang asked habitually.

Little Ke responded, “? Sure, feel free to give me a five-star rating.”

Song Shuhang asked, “But before I give you a five-star rating, can I ask you some questions about the language of the ancient era?”

“…” Little Ke.

If I don’t say yes, are you going to give me a bad review?

After a while, Little Ke sent another smiley, and sent: “? Ok, one last question”.

Little Ke found it extremely difficult to squeeze out this smiley.

Song Shuhang replied, “Then it’s settled.”

He estimated that Senior White should also be back soon. At that time, he could directly ask Senior White how to roll his tongue for the proper p.r.o.nunciations.

❄️❄️❄️

Song Shuhang took Doudou and descended from the air.

When descending, he took out the sheet that Senior White Two had given him, and placed it on himself and the shrunken Doudou, covering the two of them. He also set up an illusion formation to prevent ordinary people from seeing them falling from the sky.

After landing…

Doudou said, “Where do we go to play next? By the way, is the computer you lent me back then still there? I haven’t been able to go online for a while now.”

Song Shuhang looked at the time, and said, “Let’s go over to Medicine Master’s building first. I want to study the ‘ancient language’, and we can wait to receive the delivery this evening.”

After all, the s.h.i.+pping address of the immortal boat was Medicine Master’s building.

One person and one dog maintained the illusion formation as they headed out of the school premises under a sheet.

On the way, Shuhang pa.s.sed by a parking lot with Doudou in his arms.

From a distance, he saw an off-road vehicle rus.h.i.+ng into the parking lot. It drifted as it parked beautifully beside the lateral parking s.p.a.ce, failing to get into it.

Doudou sent a secret sound transmission. “Why does that car look familiar?”

Song Shuhang replied, “We should squat down and hide. We’re really lucky not to have been crushed yet.”

One person and one dog, draped in a sheet, shrank down.

After a while, Fairy Dongfang Six got out of the car.

She turned her head and looked around, finding no one around her. Afterward, she quickly released a low-level illusion technique that enveloped herself and the car.

Then, she reached out and grabbed her huge off-road vehicle, lifted it up, and put it in the lateral parking s.p.a.ce with a bang.

Fairy Dongfang Six clapped her hands in satisfaction.

Then, she took out her mobile phone. “h.e.l.lo, Fellow Daoist Creation, I’m here. Mm-hm~ Okay, I won’t talk about it with little friend Shuhang. Mm-hm~ I understand, we can give him a surprise then. It’s settled then, I will go over to you now.”

After saying that, Fairy Dongfang Six undid the illusion technique and left the school premises.

“…” Song Shuhang.

A surprise from Senior Creation?
