Su Ming turned around and was about to walk towards Hu Zi when he paused, but only for a moment. Then, without turning his head back, he walked towards Hu Zi, who was snoring on the ground.
When Bai Su saw Su Ming acting as if he did not hear her, she frowned and disgust appeared on her face. She turned around and chased after Si Ma Xin. Her movements were graceful and graceful, especially when she turned around and left. She drew out a wild beauty in the wind.
Right up till the end, Su Ming never once turned his head back to look at Bai Su. To him, this woman seemed to be no different from the others. The only thing that existed between them was the ripple of emotions that had appeared previously due to their similar appearances.
Yet at that moment, those ripples turned into calmness.
The only thing that remained in his heart was not Bai Su, but the attitude of the fourth summit's left preceptor. His words that echoed in the air just now were clearly biased towards him.
'I'm not familiar with the left preceptor. If he did this …' A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes and his Master, Tian Xie Zi, appeared in his head.
Hu Zi was still snoring. A lot of drool was flowing out of the corners of his mouth. There was a silly grin on his face, as if he was very happy in his dreams. Zi Che stood by the side respectfully. When he saw Su Ming walking over, he immediately wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed.
"Greetings, uncle master Su."
His respect did not seem to be fake, but had truly come from the bottom of his heart. Once he witnessed Su Ming and Si Ma Xin's battle, he had repeatedly rejoiced in his heart that he had run into Su Ming's second senior brother when he had gone to cause trouble for him.
If he had fought against Su Ming at that time, then Zi Che would not have the slightest bit of confidence that he could win against Su Ming in the face of all the changes in his divine abilities.
'If he could force Si Ma Xin to use the Great Art of Heartless Berserker Seed, then this Su Ming will definitely be extraordinary in Freezing Sky Clan in the future!' Zi Che was certain of this in his heart, especially when he remembered the murderous aura he felt from Su Ming's body and his calm words in Hu Zi's cave abode. That respect instantly turned into reverence.
Su Ming nodded. The moment his feet landed on the ground, He Feng charged towards him in a pathetic manner. Due to Si Ma Xin's departure, the soul of the ice wolf had also left with him. He Feng approached Su Ming with a slight shiver, but when he looked at Su Ming, there was an even greater respect in his eyes compared to Zi Che's.
It could be said that he had watched Su Ming walk step by step from when he was still very weak to where he was now. The difference between the current Su Ming and the one in the past was like heaven and earth. It was precisely because he had seen it with his own eyes that his respect towards Su Ming was much greater compared to the others.
He knew that Su Ming was not a kind person. He was ruthless and vengeful.
"Master …" He Feng bowed deeply towards Su Ming with shame on his face.
"Master, this lowly one's strength is inferior to that Lang Hun, but don't worry Master, this lowly one will definitely cultivate diligently, and sooner or later I will become Master's arm!
I won't embarrass you. "He Feng raised his head and patted his chest as he promised.
"Come back." Su Ming cast He Feng a glance and seized the air with his right hand. Immediately, Spirit Plunder and Han Mountain Bell charged towards Su Ming. Once they circled around him a few times, Spirit Plunder was put away into his storage bag. As for Han Mountain Bell, it fused with Su Ming's body and gradually disappeared.
When He Feng also disappeared from Su Ming's body, Su Ming turned around and looked at his destination – the Artifact Storage Hall.
At that moment, the young man who Hu Zi had pointed at and told Su Ming to be a woman disguised as a man stood outside the Artifact Storage Hall. When she saw Su Ming looking at her, her expression was completely different from before Si Ma Xin returned.
At that time, he was filled with disgust and resignation. If he could avoid it, he would. Because he disliked Hu Zi, he also disliked all the people who followed Hu Zi.
Yet now, there was respect on his face. The moment Su Ming's gaze fell on him, he immediately took a few steps forward and wrapped his fist in his palm before bowing deeply towards Su Ming.
"I am Chen Xiang. Greetings, uncle master Su."
Chen Xiang was very beautiful. Her features were as beautiful as a picture, but she was intentionally hiding it. Her skin was slightly dark, as if it covered up the light from the pearls, causing others to be unable to tell whether she was a man or a woman at first glance.
She wore a wide robe that covered her body. If Hu Zi had not mentioned that this person was a woman disguised as a man, Su Ming would not have been able to see anything wrong with her. Yet now that his gaze fell on her, he gradually noticed something different about her.
However, Su Ming did not look at her for too long. He averted his gaze.
"I want to go to the Artifact Storage Hall and choose some papers. Please do me a favor." Su Ming did not put on the airs of an uncle master. His tone was calm as he spoke to Chen Xiang.
Chen Xiang quickly nodded and took a few steps back to make way for Su Ming with a respectful look on her face.
"Uncle master Su, please. I am usually in charge of the Artifact Storage Hall. Please go in and wait for a moment. I will bring you the papers you need."
Under Chen Xiang's respectful guidance, Su Ming walked into the Artifact Storage Hall. As for Zi Che, he stayed outside to take care of the snoring Hu Zi. Without Su Ming's orders, he did not dare follow him in.
If this had happened before Su Ming fought against Si Ma Xin, Zi Che might have done the same, but it would not have been something as if he did not dare to follow Su Ming. Yet now that he had witnessed Su Ming's strength, Zi Che suddenly gained a new understanding of the ninth summit.
To him, all the people in the mountain were strange, but even if they were strange, besides Hu Zi, all of them were powerful Berserkers. The gentle man who liked flowers was one of them, the murderous Su Ming before him was one of them, and their eldest senior brother, the person who was always in isolation, was one of them. Zi Che guessed that he should be someone even stronger!
'This is the true ninth summit. The other rumors are all fake … Only when you enter the ninth summit will you understand the strange people who live in this mountain and how terrifying they are …' Zi Che took a deep breath. He had a feeling that entering the ninth summit just like this was not a bad thing for him. There was a high possibility that this was also a chance for him.
As he thought about it, Hu Zi's rhythmic snoring traveled into his ears. That snoring did not sound too loud during the day, but if it was a quiet night and someone heard that snoring in the forest, their expressions would definitely change and they would think that a huge insect or a ferocious beast had appeared.
The snoring was like a roar that shook all those who heard it.
Zi Che turned his head around and cast a glance at Hu Zi. Gradually, a strange look appeared in his eyes.
'This person might not be an ordinary person …' He remembered when he was in Hu Zi's cave abode and how his hands were held by this person as he fell asleep in his dreams, and his face gradually turned pale.
'Intruder Dream … Intruder Dream … If he can bring people into his dreams at any time, then this sort of power is incredibly terrifying! 'Monsters! The ninth summit is full of monsters!' The more Zi Che thought about it, the more anxious he became, but at the same time, the more shocked he was, the more tempted he became!
Su Ming sat on the chair in the Artifact Storage Hall. There was an oil lamp on the table beside him. It might be daytime, but the light from the fire still shone brightly and spread through the area.
The Artifact Storage Hall was not big, but it was not small either. There were rows of shelves, and all sorts of items were placed on them. Some of them looked broken, but some of them were brand new.
Occasionally, Chen Xiang would appear beside the rows of shelves. He was walking quickly around the place, taking down different pieces of paper. After a moment, he brought the papers to Su Ming and placed them on the table respectfully. Then, he took a few steps back and lowered his head to speak softly.
"Uncle master Su, the items in the Artifact Storage Hall are not complete. There are only these types of papers here. Take a look and see which type you need. I'll go and get more.
"These papers are usually used by the disciples from the various summits to take notes. If you think it's not enough, there are many bamboo slips." As Chen Xiang spoke, she sized up Su Ming from the corner of her eye.
Su Ming nodded and looked at the papers on the table. Most of them were coarse and dark brown in color. Some of them could not even compare to beast skins.
When Chen Xiang saw Su Ming frowning slightly, she quickly said, "This is … uncle master Su, there are only these here. Why don't you take a look and see whether there are any substitutes?"
When Su Ming heard this, he got up and walked towards the rows of shelves. Before he walked far, he suddenly stopped and pointed at an item by his side, then looked at Chen Xiang.
"How many of these are there?"
Chen Xiang followed behind Su Ming and immediately looked in the direction he was pointing. He was pointing at a white wooden block that was about the length of an arm and the width of a palm.
Its color was extremely white, and it looked spotless.
"This is Sharp White Wood. This type of wood can't be found near Freezing Sky Clan. I heard that it's produced about 100,000 lis to the east of Freezing Sky Clan. Due to its beautiful color, it's often used to make chairs … I still have some of this with me." As Chen Xiang spoke, she quickly took a few steps forward. After a moment, she brought back a dozen something of this type of wood.
"Uncle master Su, this is all I have."
"Thank you. This will be enough." Su Ming smiled faintly and took the white wooden blocks. With a flick of his right hand, the wooden blocks immediately disappeared and were sent into his storage bag.
"As for the cost of buying these wooden blocks …" Su Ming looked at Chen Xiang, not knowing what to say.
"Uncle master Su, you're being too polite. You've just arrived in Freezing Sky Clan, and these items aren't that expensive. I can still make the decision. You can take them." Chen Xiang quickly waved her hand and smiled. At that moment, her smile naturally revealed her disguise as a woman disguised as a man.
However, Su Ming believed that Hu Zi was not the first person to see through this. Everyone had their own stories that they did not want to talk about. There had to be a reason why Chen Xiang had been dressing up like this for so many years in Freezing Sky Clan.
"Then thank you." Su Ming did not refuse and nodded at Chen Xiang.
"By the way, uncle master Su, you must be using this Sharp White Wood to make your own wooden slips. If that's the case, you'll need some special string …" As Chen Xiang spoke, she brought out a white spool of thread from her sleeve and handed it to Su Ming.
"I saw this when I was looking for Sharp White Wood just now. It's been here for many years. I heard that it's the tendon of some ferocious beast. It's very sturdy and should be able to be used to connect the wooden slips."
Su Ming did not take it. Instead, he cast a glance at Chen Xiang, and the ghost of a smile appeared on his face. He could still somewhat explain this person giving him the wooden blocks because she wanted to be on good terms with him, but if she gave him the tendon of a ferocious beast, then it was clear that she did not want to be on good terms with him. After all, Su Ming was not truly her uncle master.
When she saw Su Ming's expression, embarrassment appeared on Chen Xiang's face. After a moment of hesitation, she gritted her teeth and bowed deeply towards Su Ming.
"Uncle master Su, please help me …"
