Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 248

The two of them supported each other as they returned to the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect. On the way, the two of them almost crushed Du to death.

When Du came to the door, he said, “”Your play is a bit exaggerated. Let’s have it safe. Next time, go out, bring a bag of chili sauce and sprinkle it on the table.””

Do you think that chili sauce doesn’t sting your nose?

After the two of them entered the door, An Zizheng told Du to call Qu Liuyi and Little Seven and Old Huo over.

The curtains were drawn, and people pretended to send a few rounds of water back and forth. After the fight, people spilled some blood after the scrubbing, and there were probably plenty of people keeping tabs on the Heavenly Awakening Sect now.

“”Master Huo, take a look at this.””

An Zeng took out an item from his Blood Pearl bracelet and handed it to Old Huo.

Old Huo’s eyes widened when he saw the item.

“”You … this karmic luck, why is there another purple grade divine artifact?””

An Zhan shrugged his shoulders. “”I have to say, you don’t believe me even if I say I picked him up. No matter what, this was a fight. Don’t say it so easily, alright?””

Old Huo took it and examined it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more surprised he was. “”This thing... Zeze.””

An Zhan said, “”Elder, why don’t you tell me.””

Old Huo said, “”This is indeed a Purple grade divine artifact … and it’s one of the earliest Purple grade divine artifacts. Its name should be ‘Beat to Death’.””

“”What a lousy name.””

“”It’s not that I said it. Even if it’s a purple grade divine tool, this name is a bit too rustic.””

Old Huo smiled. The more he looked, the more spirited he became. “”An Zou, did you use the Dark Sword?””

An Chao nodded. “”That’s right.””

Old Huo said, “”It’s natural that this thing can’t defeat the Dark Sword, because this thing isn’t an offensive purple grade divine artifact, but a escaping divine artifact.””

The old lady from the Gao Clan clearly doesn’t know the true usage of this item. However, looking at the world, there are no more than three people who can tell the origins and uses of this item with a single glance like me.

“”One is living in seclusion in the Bright Peak, while the other is serving as a guest in the Great Xi Imperial Palace. Right … speaking of this, when are you going to raise my salary?””

An Zhan sighed, “”My dear grandpa …””

Old Huo smiled complacently: “”The Gao Family’s old lady using this item to fight against your Lament Sword is simply a waste of heaven’s gifts.””

If she knows the use of this thing, you can’t kill her.

“”This object should have been made more than 900 years ago, and the creator is called Xu Muyun.””

Qu Liuxi said, “”I know, Xu Muyun was an artificer master from more than 900 years ago. At that time, there was no one stronger than him in this world.””

Old Huo looked at Qu Liuxi with appreciation, “”That’s right … 900 years ago … also when I was just established at the Hall of First Purity, Xu Muyun was one of the two founders of the Hall of First Purity.””

But then he ran off in a rage because of a conflict with another founder.

After leaving the first-class hall, he was free to roam the mountains and play with the waters.

“”Later on, he met his lifelong confidant, Guo Fanghe, at Chickening Mountain.””

Skinny Du asked, “”Is he also a great person?””

Old Huo shook his head, “”No, Guo Fanghe is a woodcutter, because when he was young, he once saved a crane, and after he healed it, he was released. People in the village called him Guo Fanghe.

Guo Fanghe’s family is poor, never went to school, never read a book.

His parents died early, and he grew up eating a hundred meals.

However, this person knew a lot about the ways of the world. Ever since he was young, he knew that he couldn’t go to someone else’s house for dinner. Thus, he took a machete to chop firewood at the age of five or six.

No matter who he went to have dinner with, he only ate one meal a day, and he traded his money for firewood. “”

Skinny Du couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up. “”This is a true man!””

Old Huo continued,

“”Until he was 14 years old, Guo Fanghe no longer went to the village to eat, but went out to find work.””

Every morning, he would jump on a load of firewood to sell in the town. Then, he would find some odd jobs in the town to do so that he could support himself.

When he was 17 years old, he met Xu Muyun, who was swimming to this place in the market.

Xu Muyun had breakfast at the market but forgot to bring the money.

“”Those who buy breakfast aren’t allowed to leave. Xu Muyun put down a red rank treasure and said that you can have it for breakfast.””

“”How willful.””

Old Huo laughed, “”But the person who sells breakfast, how could he know the red rank treasure? Just treat it as if he’s a freeloader and doesn’t allow him to leave no matter what.””

Coincidentally, Guo Fanghe had walked by and sold a load of firewood for five coins, barely enough to last him a day.

When he saw that Xu Muyun had been stopped, he handed over the five coins to the seller for breakfast.

What kind of person was Xu Muyun? How could he possibly accept the favor of others?

Thus, he gave the red rank treasure to Guo Fanghe as a form of gratitude.

Guo Fanghe didn’t take it back, he just carried the carrying pole and left. “”

“”How willful.””

Old Huo rolled his eyes: “”Xu Muyun thought that Guo Fanghe was a little different, so he kept following him.””

The two of them chatted as they walked, Guo Fanghe speaking and acting very graciously even though he hadn’t read a book.

At that time, Xu Muyun was already almost 70 years old, and Guo Fanghe was only 17 years old … No one would have thought that two people with such a huge age difference would actually become friends with each other. “”

He looked at Du. “”Do you want to hear more willful things?””

Thin Du nodded as if he was playing with garlic. “”Think about it, Grandpa Huo, quickly tell me.””

Old Huo continued: “”Xu Muyun then actually stayed at Guo Fanghe’s house. However, his status was too high in the past, so of course he wouldn’t go wood chopping and odd jobs with Guo Fanghe.””

Guo Fanghe didn’t mind. Every morning, when he went out, he would buy two people’s meals after selling the money.

If there is no income on a particular day, the two starve.

And no matter how cloudy it was, Guo Fanghe would never slack off at home.

“”I don’t care about the rain, as long as Guo Fanghe comes back, Xu Muyun will give Guo Fanghe a treasure.””

“”He stayed at Guo Fanghe’s house for 360 days.

During this time, there were many days of starvation.

After all, at that time, they were still in the midst of war and it was not every day that they found them.

Xu Muyun didn’t say who he was, and Guo Fanghe didn’t ask.

As soon as the two met, there would be endless things to say.

“”Until three hundred and sixty days later, the Da Xi royal family sent people to find Xu Muyun.””

“”Xu Muyun told Guo Fanghe that if you sell the things I gave you, it would be enough for you to spend for several lifetimes.””

Guo Fanghe said that if you don’t sell anything, you will have to travel far, and you are already old, and the long journey back and forth is impractical.

Perhaps this will be the day we never meet again, so I will keep the things you gave me.

“”If I ever get married and have children, tell my children to keep them and pass them down from generation to generation.””

Qu Liuxi’s eyes suddenly lit up. “”Ah!””

“”So this is the origin of the crane’s 360 treasures.””

Old Huo nodded: “”Xu Muyun has more respect for Guo Fanghe. He said to Guo Fanghe, if you raise me for 360 days, why don’t you follow me and I’ll raise you for 360 days as well?””

After a moment of silence, Guo Fanghe said, “”I’ll go with you, but I don’t need you to raise me, I can support myself.””

Afterwards, the two of them went back to Da Xi together. Guo Fanghe went out to find work for himself, then returned to Xu Muyun’s house to stay the night.

He only found out how high Xu Muyun’s status was after he got to the Da Xi family, and how many luxurious homes he lived in. However, he still went out every day to find a job to support himself.

“”As for what Xu Muyun is doing, he’s still completely indifferent to it.””

“”Three hundred and sixty days later, Guo Fanghe said his goodbyes and left. No matter how much Xu Muyun asked him to stay, he refused.

Xu Muyun said, “”You stayed here for 360 days, and I used 360 days to build something for you, something that only belongs to you.””

Don’t show this to others, it will bring you trouble.

“”Okay.”” Guo Fanghe nodded in agreement, and Xu Muyun gave this to him.

Old Huo shook the object in his hand. “”Fight to the death.””

After taking a sip of water, he continued,

“”This thing also has a name, it’s called the Gao Yi Sutra.

“”It has two uses. The reason it can be called a Purple grade divine artifact is because its biggest function is to replace it.””

“”I’ve heard this story before, but I didn’t expect it to be the rumored High Upanishads,”” he said.

However, hearing that this item could guarantee that the user wouldn’t be beaten to death was why it was called ‘fighting to the death’.

But as to exactly how to use it, I’ve never heard of it. “”

Old Huo said, “”The so-called substitution is a substitute.””

The Gao Yi formula was a seemingly ordinary and unremarkable jade pendant. Perhaps because of Guo Fanghe’s status as an ordinary person, Xu Muyun was worried that the purple grade divine tool’s aura would leak out and bring Guo Fanghe bad luck.

Therefore, when he was creating the [High Yi Mantra], his aura had been restrained so that even an ordinary expert would not be able to detect it.

From the outside, this was an exquisite carved jade ornament shaped like a crane. It was very unique.

Lao Huo said, “”The secret of this thing is here …””

He pointed to the eyes of the Immortal Crane and said, “”Ordinary magical equipment have to be bound by blood.””

But this thing, only Guo Fanghe and Xu Muyun knew about it. It wasn’t blood binding, but tears.

Tears fell into the crane’s eyes, as if it had acknowledged him as its master. “”

He handed it to An Zhe. “”Try it?””

An Zeng shook his head, then handed it over to Xiao Qi. “”This is a new toy for you.””

Du laughed thin: “”You are quite willful too. A nine and a half year old child wearing a purple grade divine tool.””

An Zhan said, “”Didn’t Lord Huo already say it? The aura of this High Yi Mantra is restrained, and ordinary experts aren’t able to distinguish it.””

Besides, who would have thought that Xiao Qidao would have a purple grade divine artifact.

Here, tear up, this is your only toy. “”

Xiao Qidao was a little worried. “”What if I can’t cry?””

Skinny Du suddenly raised his hand and pressed it on Xiao Qitao’s nose. This time, it made Xiao Qitao feel terrible, causing tears to flow down his face.

Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye held onto Du skinny and started beating him up. Du skinny laid there holding his head and said, “”Hurry up, otherwise, this fatty’s beating is useless.””

An Zaiyi caught Xiao Qi’s tears. A moment later, Gao Yi started to emit a faint purple glow.

However, the light quickly disappeared. It did not last for even a second.

Moreover, even when the purple light lingered, the aura of a Purple grade divine artifact did not appear.

Xiao Qitao rubbed his nose and ran over to pull Gu Qianye and Qu Liuxi back, “”Stop hitting fatty big brother, he’s doing this for my own good.””

Gu Qian Ye smoothed out his hair. “”I know he’s doing this for your own good. If there’s nothing else, let’s call him a few more times …””

Qu Liuxi withdrew her hand. “”Un … I was just playing around for a bit …””

Old Huo let Xiao Qitao hold onto the [High] and said, “”Take this. You don’t need to do anything else. You don’t need to take it. You just need to carry it with you.””

“”The trigger probability for this thing is 100%. Otherwise, how could it be called a purple grade divine artifact.””

Then he pointed at Xiao Qizhao and said to Skinny Du, “”Hit him.””

“”I don’t!””

Old Huo: “”Do you think I can let you hurt Xiao Qidao?””

Skinny Du straightened his clothes and stood up. “”Nope!””

Old Huo sighed, “”Then I’ll do it myself. You guys have gone too far with Little Seven.””

He rummaged in his sleeves and pulled out a handful of heads, which looked as if they were flying in all directions.

He let Little Seven walk over, then he suddenly stabbed towards Little Seven’s stomach.

Although the few of them knew that Old Huo wouldn’t really hurt Xiao Qitao, they were all shocked.

However, at that moment, Little Seven disappeared.

Puff!

Old Huo’s head stabbed into a piece of wood, but he didn’t know where it came from.
