Two crossbars sprang out from the snow, and the small banners rolled on the bars unfurled with a whoosh, fluttering in the wind.
The hooks driven by the crossbars triggered the firecracker chanisms, and the two-stage firecracker shot up into the sky, exploding brilliantly. Dive into more tales on
Sparse colored paper and petals drifted down from the air.
Zhang Ze sighed.
"Lily has ti to do this, why doesn’t she shovel the snow in my yard."
On the banners, one read "Welco" and the other read "Boss Erges," but the order was reversed.
The handwriting was ugly, definitely Lily’s handiwork at a glance.
"Forget it, I’ll have to shovel the snow myself, Sword Mist Technique."
Zhang Ze ford a sword technique hand sign, gathering the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around him, and used the Sword Sect Technique to drive it, forming a Sword Qi Gang Wind around him.
Once the Gang Wind stabilized, Zhang Ze stepped forward and began circling around the yard, turning himself into a human snowplow to clear the snow.
Cultivation is handy in that way; washing clothes, cooking, and cleaning are all very convenient.
Once the snow in the courtyard was cleared, Lily had...
also been dragged over by Xiaoxuan, who was riding a balance vehicle.
The stone figure girl’s style was now very avant-garde. Although her overall fast charging external design was set by Chen Qin, Lily had added a lot of external armor to Xiaoxuan.
Now Xiaoxuan’s art style was becoming increasingly bizarre, seemingly evolving towards a Gundam or an Eva.
And the rope Lily previously intended for Hei Qu was now put to use.
Lily tied the rope around Xiaoxuan’s waist while she held the other end, riding over on a sled.
The sled wasn’t an ordinary sled either, probably fitted with an ice attribute array that created ice out of thin air, allowing it to slide smoothly even in snowless areas.
"How long have I been in seclusion?" Zhang Ze asked. Discover stories at
He was afraid he had secluded himself all the way to 2077.
"Not long, just three days," Lily stopped in front of Zhang Ze.
"Then what about this snow?" Zhang Ze pointed at the thick snow on the tree in the yard.
"I don’t know. The snow suddenly started last night, fell all night, and just stopped," Lily untied the rope from Xiaoxuan.
"The Sword Hall has already gone for rescue and disaster relief," Lily put the sled back into her Storage Magical Artifact.
"Rescue and disaster relief?" Zhang Ze found these words very foreign, not at all fitting the world of Xianxia.
"Yes," Lily nodded. "Such heavy snow before winter, mortals can’t withstand it."
"The Sword Pavilion has already sent disciples to various counties and towns to drive away wild beasts and demon beasts coming down from the mountains due to the snow, punish brigands and loose cultivators causing trouble in the chaos, and distribute talismans to dispel diseases and plagues."
"In villages where crops are completely destroyed, we grind Grain Avoidance Pills into water, and a small pot of pill dicine can help the whole village survive the snow disaster."
"Our Thousand chanism Pavilion also sent cultivators to help in the countryside."
Zhang Ze listened in a daze; this was indeed a path he had never imagined.
A bit too harmonious and friendly.
But it’s good like this, better than an underworld cultivation world, but Zhang Ze quickly thought of another issue.
"This snow disaster is suspicious. Although winter is coming soon, there’s no reason for such heavy snow to fall suddenly."
Lily answered, "It’s indeed suspicious. The Sword Pavilion’s task hall has already issued a task, and many senior brothers and sisters have taken it and are investigating outside."
Zhang Ze felt he might also take this task.
Originally, the hole in Exchange Points due to the underground city task was filled.
But now, because of the Hundred Demons Sect Heart thod, there was a gap again.
And this abnormal snow, maybe it could trigger a series of tasks.
If successful, earning several thousand or tens of thousands of cultivation points and exchange points shouldn’t be a problem from the system.
With that decision, Zhang Ze prepared to find Lin Feng.
After all, these kinds of lucky random outdoor event triggers are better suited for the good junior brother.
As Zhang Ze was about to leave, Lily suddenly grabbed him, "By the way, I’m here to tell you sothing serious."
"Two things.
"The first thing is Chen Qin returned to the Main Pavilion, seems like her mom missed her and told her to co ho for dinner."
Zhang Ze wasn’t surprised; after returning from Cold City, Chen Qin had said many tis during chats that she wanted to go ho and see.
She even asked if Zhang Ze wanted to go back with her together.
Zhang Ze, of course, found an excuse to refuse.
Although privately, every day bantering about keeping the Ghost Fire Flying Sword parked under the Sect Leader’s building, when it ca to the crunch, he still backed down.
Foundation Establishnt truly can’t beat Mahayana.
"What’s the second thing?" Zhang Ze asked.
"Boss, you know you’re delaying updates? You didn’t give the new manuscript before you secluded." Lily reached out to Zhang Ze for the new manuscript.
Zhang Ze chuckled, "I’ll write it tonight; anyway, it’s already delayed a day, another day won’t matter."
"Farewell." After speaking, Zhang Ze took out his Snake Sword, activated the Secret Technique, a black mist flashed, and he disappeared without a trace.
Lily sighed; if delayed, then delayed, it’s not the first ti anyway.
...
Over at the Thousand chanism Pavilion pedestrian street, Zhang Ze didn’t find Lin Feng, but he did first find Ah Li.
Though just three days absent, Ah Li was no longer Ah Li, it had now beco God Li.
"God Li, help calculate, how far can I go in the underground city this ti? Can I get a purple card from the Poisonous Fog Ghost?"
A young cultivator respectfully stood in front of Ah Li’s stall, handing over four Spirit Stones.
Ah Li nodded, took out a divination stick cylinder from the Hundred Treasures Bag, and asked, "Which underground city are you going into?"
"In response to God Li, I’m entering the Gourd Cave."
Ah Li shook the cylinder, and a shadow of the Eight Trigrams appeared faintly underfoot. Once the shadow fully solidified, a divination stick popped out.
Ah Li picked up the divination stick and pretended, "After entering, don’t go to the right, beware of the coffin."
"If you must open a coffin, don’t touch the one on the far right." While the cultivator wasn’t watching, Ah Li quickly put the incorrectly taken stick back into the bamboo tube.
"What about the card draw?" the cultivator asked again.
Ah Li sighed, "Difficult, the odds aren’t good, but..."
"But what?" the cultivator eagerly asked.
"I have so enchanted Fuji pendants here. If you carry one, it might increase the odds a bit."
"Of course, it’s just a possibility; after all, card drawing is all about fate." Ah Li turned to take a box from a small cabinet behind.
"Which kind do you want? There’s colorless Fuji pendant, blue Fuji pendant, and golden Fuji pendant here."
The cultivator gritted his teeth and bought a golden one.
Only after Ah Li finished the scam did Zhang Ze walk over.
"You can read divination sticks?" Zhang Ze asked.
"No, but if I don’t shake the stick, it’s one Spirit Stone per ti; shaking the stick is two Spirit Stones per ti."
"Though the results are the sa, they quite like when I shake the stick."
Seeing Zhang Ze coming, Ah Li swiftly packed up the stall, slipped into the small alley behind, and erged again in the form of an Earth Dragon.
It skillfully climbed onto Zhang Ze’s shoulder.
"The snow’s matter?" Ah Li asked.
With one person and one dragon being so connected, many things were understood without words.
"Mhm, do you know?" Zhang Ze curiously asked.
"I calculated a bit, but my level isn’t enough to figure it out. Unless..." Li teased.
"Unless what?" Zhang Ze asked.
"Unless you feed an Immortal-grade Magical Artifact used by a Tribulation Crossing Stage great power, then I’m sure I could calculate it out," Li said.
"Sure," Zhang Ze agreed, "That Celestial Calculation Disc left by the Dragon Tiger Mountain Ancestor looks nice."
"Heard Dragon Tiger Mountain still has ancient Soul Refining with Dragon Slaying Secret techniques. I’ll use your dragon blood and dragon tendons to exchange for the Celestial Calculation Disc."
Zhang Ze and Ah Li bickered and bantered as he took out the Sound Transmission Jade from his bosom, intending to contact Lin Feng.
Yet, after several attempts, there was no response.
"Three days missing, did Brother Feng get into trouble?"
