《Dao: Journey to the Top of the Universe》C65. The Identity Jade Is Her Commitment
Advertisement
Li Xiaoyi ran an eye over Shiao Chen's face, and her lips could not help tilting slightly. She even didn't know why her mood was so cool.
"Elder Yan, Elder Mo, please stand up. We have already agreed that you don't have to greet me when we meet. If you do that again, I will ignore you."
They landed on the ground. Li Xiaoyi came forward and pulled the two elders up, her face displaying a naïve and ingratiating look.
The gloomy face of the two old men melted into a kind smile when they heard her words. They looked at Li kindly and affectionately.
"My dear lady, because this time you left the sect secretly, our old bones were almost torn down by the sect lord. If we hadn't found you yet, both of us would have been punished." Elder Yan touched his beard and said it with a bitter smile.
"Hump! I bet he dares not! If he dares to punish you two elders, watch me go back and pull out his beard. Then I'll run away from home and never go back!" Li Xiaoyi swore as she fiercely waved her tiny fists.
Elder Mo was touched by her words, but he waved his hands and said, "No, no, my lady, if you run around again, we two elderly men will really fall apart. Over the past half a year, we have traveled a lot to find you. We can't stand the toss any more."
As for pulling out the beard of sect master, well, it seemed that this was not the first time...
Actually, as early as two days ago, they had already found out Li Xiaoyi's traces. After learning that she was poisoned by Lust Bead, their hearts were filled with anxiety. However, at this moment, the two people found by careful observation that Li Xiaoyi was still a pure maiden and they were greatly relieved for knowing the fact. Their lady's spiritual root was of excellent quality, and Virgin Evil Power that she was practicing was the top skill of the Demons Daoism. There was no limit to her achievements in the future. However, if she ate the forbidden fruit before Nascent Soul Phase, she would not only lose a great amount of vitality, but it would be more difficult for her to cultivate in the future as well!

At this moment, the man in brocade, who had kept silent all the while, shot a glimpse of Shiao Chen's face with cold look. He said lightly, "My cousin, I don't know whom this Daoist friend is?"
Although his emotion was intangible, some chilling light flashed across his eyes. After all, he had already known that Li Xiaoyi was still a virgin with the toxin of Lust Bead, but he didn't know the stranger accompanying with her, which made him quite uncomfortable.
"Cousin Guan, he's my friend. You needn't think too much of it." Li Xiaoyi frowned slightly at his words, but then turned around and said to the two elders kindly, "Two elders, this is my Daoist friend Shiao Chen. On that day, I was sieged by the remnants of the Qingling Sect. Thanks to his help I could save my life. You should award him sincerely."
"Oh, thank you for saving our lady." The two elders nodded smilingly after exchanging a glance.
Shiao Chen tensed up all over gradually. He felt as if he had no secret and was completely seen through under the sights of two men of Gold Core Level. Fortunately, the feeling did not last for too long. They just took back their sights and nodded slightly without being noticed.
"Sicne you saved our lady, we should express our appreciation for your kindness in return. We have no idea of what you want, please never mind telling us your requirement," said Elder Yan.
Shiao Chen was stunned at the words and then shook his head, saying slightly: "The reason for saving the young lady is that she's a congenial friend and I do not intend to get any reward for it. The goodness of two predecessors is appreciated in the bottom of my heart."
Shiao Chen did not hesitate to refuse their offer, which was obviously beyond their expectation. Although they were a little stunned, they felt gratified at his words.
"What a fool you are! I give you a chance to ask for reward. Why don't you want it? No matter what kind of magic weapon, skill, medicine…these two elders will give you as long as you ask for them. How can you refuse their kindness! " Li Xiaoyi was anxious to chime in without waiting for the two elders to speak. She looked somewhat irritated at Shiao Chen's stupidity for not seizing the opportunity.

Shiao Chen teased as the warmth of her words softened his heart, "I've already received the reward. How can I be shameless to ask for more?" But just after uttering these words, he felt a little remorse in his heart.
As expected, Li Xiaoyi suddenly blushed when she heard his words. She gave him a fierce stare and then lowered her head deeply.
This situation was observed by the eyes of the people of the Demons Sect and immediately evoked different reactions.
Cousin Guan's eyebrows slightly frowned as killing light flashed through his eyes. His palms in the sleeves of his broad robes were already firmly held together.
Elder Yan and Elder Mo felt worried; somehow, their gazes towards Shiao Chen became unfathomable.
As for those disciples, they were so surprised that their mouths opened wide. They never saw that their fair lady had ever shown so shy a look. For a second, they looked at Shiao Chen with admiration, but more with jealousy.
"Well, since this Daoist friend saved our lady, we must reward you." Elder Yan drew out a several-inch-sized jade pendant from his storage bag and threw it to Shiao Chen. "This is a protective jade pendant in which a spiritual shield is sealed, which can withstand the full blow of cultivators below the Middle-phase of Gold Core. Please be careful with this weapon."
Resist blow of cultivators below the Middle-phase of Gold Core!
Shiao Chen turned to a serious face. He reached out his hands to take over the jade pendant after a little hesitation. He carefully put it in his storage bag, cupping his hands and saying, "Thanks for your kindness."
Now that Shiao Chen received his jade pendant, Elder Yan's eyebrows stretched slightly and turned to Li Xiaoyi, "My lady, Sect Lord requests us take you back to the Rolling Mountain Gate soon after we find you. Let's go now."
Li Xiaoyi hesitated slightly when she heard these words and then nodded slowly. She had almost been killed for these days out. It also made her realize that the danger of Cultivation World was far too overwhelming for her to confront with a shallow cultivation of Foundation Establishment.
"Shiao Chen, this is my Identity Jade. If you have any problem in the future, you can go to Beihua State to see me." She sent out an Identity Jade with delicate fragrance of girls. Li Xiaoyi's face got reddish and she took the lead in setting up the travelling light and flew to the sky.
Cousin Guan looked at Shiao Chen with a sneer, and the sight of gloom and darkness showed in his eyes. He then turned around and left too.
The two elders looked at each other, and shook their heads slightly. With a wave of their hands and a slight move of their feet, they led all disciples away.
In the blink of an eye, these figures disappeared out of sight.
Shiao Chen played with the Identity Jade with the girl's body temperature remaining on it. He could not help feeling a little complicated. He shook his head and sighed, then put it in the storage bag. Discerning the direction for a moment, he flew away with a flash of light quickly.
***
"You elders go ahead please. I have something else to do right now. I'll join you later." With that said, Cousin Guan cupped his hands to Elder Yan and Elder Mo and left the group of Demons Sect by a flash of light.

Until Death? (Refleshed Version)
Ever been a god? Well, I was! Until I died.... and got judged by the other gods! Apparently, they didn't like the whole "My Faith is the only true one!" idea. Oh, and for the record: The Apocalypse wasn't intentional, ok? In my defense, I want it to be known that my enemies threw the first stone and the whole 'Offer the other cheek' just isn't my thing. Seems like, for punishment, I get sent onto a vacation! Or so I hope? ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: It's here, a rewrite? Yes! I would like to think that this version will have better grammar, better jokes, hopefully, everything better. Since it was my first work and started solely to improve my English, the grammar always caused me headaches when I looked at it. Well, and there are the plotholes which appeared with the whole multiverse thing that came with my other works... Let's just say that the first one was never written with the idea of turning it into a series. So let's get a shovel and fill-up the plot so that hapless readers won't fall into those pitch-black pits. They might break a knee! Or worse, vanish forever. And now the disclaimer everyone knows: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

So What If I'm Trash? Who Needs Cultivation?!
Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled. A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family. (For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. ) My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story! I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go. I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know! (Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)
