My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1493: 350 chapters_2

Cao Zhen flew away.

It hadn’t been two hours, not even an hour perhaps, when the birdsong ended and Cao Zhen flew back once more.

At this time, Little Silver Dragon was already luxuriating back in the water, while the Seven-Colored Splendid Bird lay exhausted on the bank.

Cao Zhen said disdainfully, “You’re no good at this, talking about two hours, but it’s barely been the time it takes to burn a stick of incense.”

Upon hearing Cao Zhen say that it’s no good, Little Silver Dragon immediately argued, “Who says it was only a stick of incense’s time? It was at least two sticks, plus the time before you came, altogether at least an hour.”

“Alright, alright, no more arguing.” Cao Zhen waved his hand, then pointed to the Seven-Colored Splendid Bird, “Although you’re not of our Four Treasures Peak, as you’re here, you’re already half a disciple of our Four Treasures Peak. One of our peak’s rules is not to start something and then leave it unfinished. So, you need to take responsibility for Little Peacock.

However, she is too weak right now. For these days, be patient, and when I have time, I’ll prepare some pills for her to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm, then we’ll discuss it further.”

Before Little Silver Dragon could speak, the Seven-Colored Splendid Bird had already chirped loudly.

Little Dragon had a baffled expression.

But Cao Zhen nodded and said, “Rest assured, when I say I’ll refine pills for you, I will, and they’ll surely succeed. This Little Silver Dragon reached the Earth Immortal Realm after eating my pills.”

The Seven-Colored Splendid Bird chirped again upon hearing this.

Cao Zhen nodded slightly, “Alright, I know. Now that you’ve come to our Hundred Peaks Sect, just stay here in peace. As for your parents, if you wish to find them in the future, you can.”

Little Dragon was instantly unsettled, looking at Cao Zhen and exclaiming, “Cao Zhen, what are you mumbling about? Acting like you understand bird language, I can’t understand it. Can you?”

“Why can’t I understand?” Cao Zhen pointed to the Seven-Colored Splendid Bird and said, “It just told me it was caught by the Void Breaking Sect, along with its brother and sister, although people of the Void Breaking Sect thought they were its parents. Its brother and sister have already succumbed to slumber there. Only it hasn’t yet, and they all want to return and find their parents, who are really powerful but aren’t aware they were captured by the Void Breaking Sect; otherwise, their parents would have returned to rescue them.”

Having said this, Cao Zhen looked at the Seven-Colored Splendid Bird and said, “Am I right? Nod your head if I am, shake your head if I’m not.”

The Seven-Colored Splendid Bird immediately nodded upon hearing this.

Little Dragon was thoroughly dumbfounded, wondering how Cao Zhen could even understand bird language.

Cao Zhen ignored the Little Silver Dragon; given the situation, the Little Silver Dragon was even more impatient and shameless than he had imagined, certainly a perverse dragon, giving him reassurance.

He warned Little Silver Dragon once more not to be hasty, to wait until the Seven-Colored Splendid Bird reached the Earth Immortal Realm before thinking about those matters, and then hurriedly flew back to the rear of the Hundred Peaks Sect’s main gate.

Upon arriving, he discovered someone missing, and Wanshou had again vanished without explanation.

Moments later, Wanshou suddenly emerged from the rear of their Hundred Peaks Sect’s main gate, with a grave expression, as if he had made a significant discovery, running to Cao Zhen and saying urgently, “Master, I just went over to listen to what they were discussing, then went further to see if more people would come.

As a result, I really did make another discovery.”

Wanshou gestured the number six with his fingers and said, “Master, I discovered six more Earth Immortal Realm individuals, yet these clearly do not align with the Void Breaking Sect.

They are separately hidden in two locations, more secretly concealed than the people from the Void Breaking Sect. Moreover, each one exudes a dense atmosphere of Evil Qi, a gruesome sanguinary aura very strong as well. They give off the impression of assassins from the Human World.”

Assassins?

Ling Xi immediately zeroed in on these words, prompting the thought of an organization she voiced in a low tone: “People from the Assassin’s Society?”

After they had arrived recently in the Eastern Province, they encountered the Four Sons of Snow Mountain and then someone who asked for directions. Later, the Four Sons of Snow Mountain perished, likely killed by the person who asked for directions, who should be from the Assassin’s Society.

Wanshou nodded and affirmed, “They should be from the Assassin’s Society; it’s unclear if these people were hired by the Void Breaking Sect.”

“Probably not.” Cao Zhen shook his head, “The Void Breaking Sect dispatched so many here, they surely believe they can annihilate our Hundred Peaks Sect. If they felt uncertain, they could send more, no need to hire people from the Assassin’s Society separately.

To my understanding, the people from the Assassin’s Society charge an extremely high price.”

The richest among those who held grudges against them was the Rare Treasures Commerce Association; they must have been the ones to hire the Assassin’s Society, likely intending to assassinate him.

It seemed these people intended to wait for the Void Breaking Sect to act, then seize the opportunity amidst the chaos to kill him.

Cao Zhen was a bit troubled, as he now had to contend with the people from the Void Breaking Sect while guarding against those from the Assassin’s Society.

Subsequently, each day he engaged in negotiations with people from the Void Breaking Sect, exchanging those they held captive, and before long, seven days had passed, with the Void Breaking Sect redeeming over fifty people.
