This little girl was extremely shy. After she finished speaking one sentence, her face blushed all over, yet her eyes were filled with a fiery expectation Since she was worried about personal gains and losses, her nervousness was written all over her face. Her long eyelashes trembled and caused her spiritual big eyes to appear even more innocent and pure.
Only, behind her purity, there was some hidden sadness. This could be vaguely seen from the little girl’s pent-up eyebrows.
Qin Wushuang roared with laughter. “Little girl, you want to be my disciple? How old are you today?”
“I am eleven!” The girl straightened her chest as she worked hard to show her “mature” side. Therefore, she even secretly stood on her tiptoes to make her look taller.
In Qin Wushuang’s eyes, how could the little movements from this little girl hide from him? Although this little girl worked extremely hard to act mature, her naive and innocent look clearly showcased that she was after all, a child.
“Sir Xing He, could we speak privately?” one of the middle aged men asked with his hoarse voice.
With an indifferent look, Qin Wushuang shot a glance towards those two groups of people. “I am sorry, if you have the Dark Mysterious Ice Soul and Blue Wave Water Pool, we can trade here. If not, nothing will happen even if we talk in private.”
He had keen eyes for judging people. He knew that these two groups of people clearly did not carry any sincere intentions to trade. Judging from their looks, not only did they not have the items he was looking for, but even if they did, most likely they would not bring them out.
Most likely, they were bullying him to be a foreigner and wanted to seize something from him.
Indeed, as soon as Qin Wushuang said these words, one of the forthright guys said with an angry snort. “Sir Xing He, even if we cannot trade, we must nevertheless have etiquette, right? As you refuse people one thousand miles apart harshly, this is not a friendly performance.”
Lone said with a cold snort, “My master is here for the Dark Mysterious Assembly, not to play friendly with you. If you think we are not friendly enough, you can go away now, we will not serve you.”
Qin Wushuang chuckled and put up a thumb for Lone. He started walking to the great hall as he still wanted to see what bounty missions were there.
When he walked before the great hall, he was just in time as Ling Tianzhi of the Heavenly Mountain Sect walked over too. When he saw the two groups of people following behind Qin Wushuang, the expression on Ling Tianzhi changed abruptly. “You two groups, you are nagging our honorable guest? Could it be you are utterly ignoring the rules of the Dark Mysterious Assembly?”
Even though those two powerhouses acted all mighty, they still restrained their fear before the Heavenly Mountain Sect. Not to mention that the Dark Mysterious Clan entrusted the Heavenly Mountain Sect to organize the Dark Mysterious Assembly, as it would not be too much to say that the Heavenly Mountain Sect possessed authority over their lives.
Giving off a light snort, those two groups of people did not dare to defy him as they left in embarrassment.
Ling Tianzhi took a few steps up and said with a mysterious tone, “Sir Xing He, I have news. Would you be interested to hear it?”
Upon seeing Ling Tianzhi act this way, it did not seem that he was putting on a show. Not to mention that as he put on such a low attitude and claimed to be a junior, Qin Wushuang was in a great mood. He was not, however, blindly optimistic. Instead, he asked calmly, “What stake do you want?”
Initially, Ling Tianzhi wanted to reserve himself from mentioning the payment, but he didn’t expect the other party to be this direct. With a chuckle, he nodded and said, “Indeed Sir Xing you are straightforward. I will not beat the bush before smart people. Sir Xing He, I can give you a precise clue relating to the Dark Mysterious Ice Soul and Blue Wave Water Pool. If you are interested, I will tell you. If not, just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
“Tell me, what do you want?”
“Then I will say it now, if you can give me a Dragon Breath Seal, I will certainly tell you all of the information I have that is one hundred percent reliable. I can promise you this with the reputation of the Heavenly Mountain Sect,” Ling Tianzhi said while making a solemn vow.
Qin Wushuang stared at Ling Tianzhi and when he saw that he had a solemn expression, he believed him to some extent. Although this Ling Tianzhi was not a kind figure, as he got scared by him last time, he still acted somewhat fearful and nervous. He expected that he would not dare to play tricks.
“If the information is appropriate, one Dragon Breath Seal is a small matter. Are you certain that information is useful? It can help me to get the Dark Mysterious Ice Soul and Blue Wave Water Pool?”
Ling Tianzhi had a mischievous laugh, yet he did not answer straightforwardly. Instead, he said, “Sir Xing He, my father just told me that you are for sure, powerful. However, besides the holy place of the Dark Mysterious Clan, it’s very difficult to acquire the Dark Mysterious Ice Soul and Blue Wave Water Pool in other places. Although you are powerful, the success rate to barge into a holy place is definitely slim. Although the information I am about to provide is also of great difficulty, it’s much more hopeful than barging into the holy place. Most importantly, it carries no risk.”
One must say that this Ling Tianzhi was eloquent at speaking. Through comparison, the reasonable and proper explanation caused Qin Wushuang to feel a rush of excitement.
He had a sufficient amount of Dragon Breath Seals. With a flash from the center of his palm, he already pulled a Dragon Breath Seal into his hand. When the presence of the marvelous seal was emitted, it caused Ling Tianzhi to reveal a burning look.
Just when Qin Wushuang was about to give the Dragon Breath Seal to Ling Tianzhi, that little girl from behind him walked out quietly from behind the door. Although she appeared somewhat timid through her eyes, she said with a rather determined tone, “Sir Xing He, I can also tell you a clue. I don’t want your payment, as long as you take me as your disciple.”
Qin Wushuang laughed. He looked at Ling Tianzhi and at that young girl. Suddenly, he twitched his mouth into a smile. “Ling Tianzhi, wait here for a moment, I will be back soon.”
After he finished, he flashed next to the young girl. With a roll of the strong wind, he supported the young girl and directly disappeared from the path by transforming into a burst of divine light.
In a remote corner, Qin Wushuang put down the young girl. “Little girl, what is your name?”
“Yang Yi.” Little girl’s watery eyes were as clean as limpid autumn water. As her spiritual eyelashes blinked gently, her slim figure was like a secluded flower, to trigger people’s tender feelings.
“Yes, where are you from, where are your parents? Why do you wish to study under me?”
As soon as the little girl heard mention of parents, her initially bright expression instantly dimmed. She said with a low voice, “I don’t have parents.”
“Hm?”
“Ever since I could understand things around me, I realized I don’t have a daddy or mommy.”
“Then how did you appear at the Dark Mysterious Assembly?” Qin Wushuang was rather curious. It sounded as though this little girl was an orphan.
“A fortune-teller uncle sent me here. He said I can find a teacher here.”
“Him again?” Qin Wushuang let out a bitter smile. “Then how did you find me? Did he tell you my name and appearance?”
“He said nothing, he said this place had my teacher. He told me to find you with my instincts. If I am right, you will take me in surely. Sir Xing He, will you be my teacher?”
Since this was set up by Li Buyi, Qin Wushuang knew that he must do this favor. Additionally, for someone as secluded as elite warrior Li Buyi, he must have his reason for such an arrangement.
Upon seeing Qin Wushuang in silence, suddenly Yang Yi remembered something. She said, “By the way, Sir Xing He, I almost forgot, that fortune teller uncle also said, the Dark Mysterious Clan has a secret bounty reward. If you can complete the mission, you will surely get the things you want. Teacher, the things you want, is it the Dark Mysterious Ice Soul and Blue Wave Water Pool?”
Qin Wushuang was moved inwardly. Indeed, senior Li Buyi had incredible foresight as he even predicted what he wanted. It seemed that the style of senior was as hard to fathom as supernatural beings.
“Little one, since senior Li Buyi arranged it, then you shall follow me.” Qin Wushuang revealed a slight smile. In the end, he was also an orphan from his previous world. He shared a form of indescribable tender feelings for orphans.
“Sir Xing He, you… You will truly take me in?” Yang Yi was brimming with joy. Her beautiful little eyes were filled with sincerity.
“What did you call me?” Qin Wushuang smiled faintly.
“Xing… Oh right, teacher!” With innate talent, the little girl immediately understood. She bowed on the floor directly. “With teacher up, I bow to you.”
Qin Wushuang chuckled. “Alright, since you are to bow to me as your teacher, I will take your three worships and nine bows. Yi’er, you must remember, my real name is Qin Wushuang, I am the Head Chief of the Xuan Yuan Mound Qin Clan. Earlier, I studied at the Stargaze Palace. You are my first disciple, in the future of whatever you do, you must not degenerate my name.”
“Yes, I will surely remember. “Yang Yi was happy. Her naive and innocent look as a young girl, combined with her movement to try to be mature caused her to appear incredibly cute.
“Yes, what can you do?” Qin Wushuang wanted to test this girl’s foundation.
“I… I can burn firewood, make food, throw the net to catch fish, also I know how to roast sweet potatoes and roasted potatoes. Yes, I also know…” When a trail of skills were reported, Qin Wushuang was dazzled as he heard them.
It was often the case that children of the poor start managing the household early on. Now, this disciple was full of skills and talent. However, Qin Wushuang didn’t intend to ask about this.
Upon seeing that the little girl was not sophisticated, Qin Wushuang did not intend to ask too much. Inwardly, he thought, “This is a raw gem, whether I can polish her or not, it seems it will have to be done after I return to the Qin Clan. I think Senior Li Buyi would not have sent me a child without any talent?”
When Ling Tianzhi saw Qin Wushuang appear again, he immediately went up with all smiles. Yet Qin Wushuang said with a cold expression, “Ling Tianzhi, you are treating me as a fool? Amongst the bounty rewards that are to be announced today, there is a bounty from the Dark Mysterious Clan. You are taking out the matter that is about to be announced. You are bold to lie to me.”
Ling Tianzhi could not help to skip a heartbeat. He looked at Qin Wushuang with astonishment, then looked at Yang Yi. Clearly, he never expected that after Qin Wushuang conversed with this little girl, he could see through his little trick. Just when he was about to justify himself, Qin Wushuang said with a cold snort, “Humph, if you truly want the Dragon Breath Seal, it’s not a big matter to reward you one, as you are a junior. If I am not looking to the reputation of the Dark Mysterious Clan, I will certainly teach you a lesson.”
Appearing ashamed, Ling Tianzhi glared at Yang Yi with resentment.
Qin Wushuang said lightly, “What are you glaring at? Now this little girl is my disciple, you will be digging your own grave if you want to seek trouble with her.”
Ling Tianzhi hid his grief. He could only smile apologetically. Then, he left with humiliation.
Indeed, the information Li Buyi sent through Yang Yi was incredibly accurate. There were a total of ten bounty missions. The last bounty mission was published by the Dark Mysterious Clan.
The content of the mission was to search for the keepsake that went missing long ago from the Dark Mysterious Clan: the Dark Mysterious Commanding Plate!
