Chapter 1017: Blockhead

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Han Bingxue defiantly shouted, “Why?”

“There is a compelling reason to call you a fool. If you look at the mountain carefully, you will find something too. You actually asked such a stupid question. It means you never carefully looked at the mountain.” Ye Xiao disappointedly said, “The mountain is full of arrays. The gra.s.s, the trees, the rocks. Look at it carefully and you will find it is a Manifestation Mystic Array on the mountain!”

“We can see it is Manifestation Mystic Array, then we can definitely realize the roads on the mountain will keep changing!” Ye Xiao talked to Han Bingxue.

“Urh…” Han Bingxue looked embarra.s.sed. He widely opened his eyes. Deep inside his heart, he knew Ye Xiao was right, however, he just didn’t want to submit. He said, “I have never seen any Manifestation Mystic Array! It is reasonable that I didn’t realize it… I don’t think you can just disdain me because I didn’t know about this special array!”

“Pah! You call yourself a level nine Dao Origin Stage master!” Ye Xiao said, “The only thing you know is swordplay practice. What about the rest of your life? Don’t tell anybody you know me! That is embarra.s.sing! That is shameful!” Xuan Bing agreed.

Han Bingxue was awkward. If anybody else in the Qing-Yun Realm talked to him like that, he would have drawn out the sword and started to fight, even if it was Wu Fa. However, facing Ye Xiao and Xuan Bing, he could only endure it.

“Fine! It is my fault. I am stupid. I am ignorant. Alright? I disgraced you two! Alright?” Han Bingxue looked upset. “Here is another question. How did you know they are in need of Regeneration Ink Lotus so badly? How did you figure that out? Regeneration Ink Lotus is one of the best medical materials in Qing-Yun Realm, but there are plenty of other medical materials that have equal value!”

Ye Xiao looked at Han Bingxue like looking at a r.e.t.a.r.d. “I… I truly don’t know how to say this… I am wondering whether you are truly so dumb or you are just pretending… Did you hear them? They said they wanted medicines for Misty Cloud Palace. Don’t you know what medicine Misty Cloud Palace needs the most?”

“What? How do I know!” Han Bingxue asked like a fool.

“All kinds of Regeneration Lotus!” Ye Xiao actually nearly laughed out. “What else do you have in your head except for all those stupid ideas about being pretentious?”

Xuan Bing nearly laughed out. She was such a decent lady, but the two brothers were having such a funny conversation.

“Regeneration Lotus? Is it that valuable to Misty Cloud Palace?” Han Bingxue was still confused.

“Brother Ye, you don’t need to push him. We badly need Regeneration Lotus. It is a secret! It is reasonable that he doesn’t know! I guess it is the heaven’s arrangement that you got to know it!” Xuan Bing interrupted. She uncommonly spoke for Han Bingxue.

However, she was being honest this time. It was Misty Cloud Palace’s biggest secret that they needed Regeneration Lotus to cure their disease caused by their own martial art. Ye Xiao knew about it because of Bing Xinyue and Wenren Chuchu. His East-rising Purple Qi was very effective to ease the disease. He even unconsciously removed the disease from Xuan Bing. However, he didn’t know all about the secret.

It was unreasonable for him to laugh at Han Bingxue about it. If even people like Han Bingxue knew about the secret, Misty Cloud Palace might be close to being ended!

Ye Xiao thought for a while and understood Xuan Bing. He realized that he was being unceremonious. He and Xuan Bing knew the secret, but Han Bingxue didn’t. Han Bingxue should have never known about it.

However, Ye Xiao wanted to save face. Even though he knew he was wrong, he wouldn’t admit it! A boiled duck still had a tough mouth! That was him!

Han Bingxue was living in the rule ‘boss is always right’. He didn’t even think about whether Ye Xiao was right or not. He just went on to the third question. “Fine. I am ignorant about the lotus and stuff… How did you know that Li Clan knows the way in?” He wouldn’t give up.

“If they don’t, for thousands of years, Li Clan must have lived like a bunch of stupid dogs!” Ye Xiao was emotionless. “They collected valuable medical materials for the powerful sects and exchange for cultivation materials. Tell me… If you were one of them, would you know the way into a place full of treasures?”

He tried not to say anything offensive since he had wronged Han Bingxue in the last question. He knew Han Bingxue wouldn’t mind if Ye Xiao did scold him again. However, Ye Xiao had conscience!

Han Bingxue finally realized what stupid questions he had been asking. He said, “Maybe they are just a bunch of blockheads… so they don’t know the way…”

“You are the only blockhead in the world…” Ye Xiao spoke fiercely, “The others are not!”

Han Bingxue was a boiled duck too. It was a waste to speak nicely to him!

“Blockhead!” Xuan Bing spoke after Ye Xiao.

Han Bingxue was upset.

Xuan Bing laughed for a while and then said, “I don’t understand one thing though. Why are you so sure that the key to the whole thing is on this mountain?”

Ye Xiao looked at Xuan Bing and couldn’t believe it. “It is such an obvious thing… Han Bingxue is a fool so he didn’t see it. You too?”

Han Bingxue was more upset. “Boss, can’t you stop bringing me up? To what end will you keep striking me?”

“Obvious thing?” Xuan Bing was surprised. “Obvious how?”

She truly didn’t understand. Unlike Ye Xiao, she had come to this mountain many times. However, she had never found anything special about this mountain. She never thought that this mountain was the key of the entire strange phenomenon of Oracle District.

The mountain was full of valuable medical materials. That was true. But… n.o.body could have thought that it had anything to do with the special phenomenon on Oracle District.

Ye Xiao was wordless. He said, “Elder Xuan… Every morning, when the sun comes out from the east, don’t you feel the purple qi from the east?”

Xuan Bing was stunned, “Feel? Feel what?”

Ye Xiao sighed. “Everyday when the sun is rising from the east, there will be an enormous amount of purple qi descending to the land. That is exactly the spiritual qi a cultivator needs… In this district, the purple qi will vanish very quickly. Most of the spiritual qi will become part of the air and come to this mountain. Well… You actually don’t know?”
