“Lian’er, we need to get back to Grand White Grotto-Heaven as soon as possible. Time to say goodbye to Brother Shen.”
Li Changge was surprised that his own sister had given her 16th birthday present to Shen Tian.
What did my sister just do?
Have you ever considered how our father will feel?
That Jade Water Sword is a Spirit Artifact that is worth even more than Dharma artifacts!
A Spirit Artifact worths at least hundreds of Spirit Crystals. That’s about 100,000 Spirit Stones!
Furthermore, Jade Water Sword is a rare Spirit Artifact, and thus its value is much more. That’s close to 1,000,000 Spirit Stones gone!
How did you give away such an item so easily!?
Help!
Li Changge did not dare to let the two of them stay together anymore. God knew what she would give to Shen Tian later!

“Brother Shen, this Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash is really important. We will take our leave first. When you and your master have decided on a date, my father and I will be waiting for you at our Grand White Grotto-Heaven.”
Then, Li Changge disappeared with Lian’er in a blink of light and disappeared.
“Haiz!”
Shen Tian finally relaxed.
He got free in the end!
The whole development had left him at a loss for words.
In the beginning, he had been trying to assist people in selecting ores, and now, he was almost engaged!
Shen Tian had confessed to other girls in his previous life, yet they had all rejected him.

But here?
He had only used a simple, NPC-like sentence, “There is fate between us!”, to attract Li Lian’er, and this happened…
1
I’m being bullied for looking too handsome!

Shen Tian sighed and looked at the direction that they had left.
Although Li Changge had made it sound easy, it would be a rough journey back to Grand White Grotto-Heaven. The temptation of the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash was too great.
Shen Tian did not worry that much, though.
Before acquiring the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash, Li Lian’er had already had a pure red halo. Now, with the calabash seed at hand, a part of her halo was emitting a golden glow, meaning her providence had significantly increased!
It was even higher than Qin Gao’s!
At the same time, her brother possessed a red halo, which was tainted with green spots. Logically speaking, they would both lead the successful lives all cultivators dreamed about. In other words, at this stage, it was impossible for them to face danger!
“We will meet again! I hope that I’ll be someone with providence shining upon me by then, and I’ll be able to win over your father, too,” murmured Shen Tian, smilingly.

Then, he picked up the Jade Water Sword. Although it looked thin and fragile, it was quite heavy, as it weighed about 15 kilograms.
Suddenly, Shen Tian remembered something—he was five kilometers away from Myriad Spirit Garden!
“Li Chang’ge… you idiot! You should at least send me back first!
“I’m not even at the Qi Refinement realm yet! I cannot use Sword-Kinesis Flight!
“Help!!! Will there be any monster around here?”
Fortunately, Shen Tian found the main road after climbing on a hill.
1
Normally, monsters and demons would not appear on the main road, while plenty of horse carriages, which headed for Myriad Spirit Garden, traversed on the main road.
“I’ll be able to hitch a ride soon… unless I am extremely unlucky.
“Wait! Unlucky?”
1
Shen Tian was astonished—his halo was still black!
Shen Tian was unaware that due to the emergence of monsters at the other end of the road, this road had been blocked off for usage until further notice. Thus, it was nigh impossible for him to hitch a ride today.
Well, in the first place, Shen Tian was not going to wait for miracles to happen. He believed that with pure skills and determination, he did not need luck to accomplish something.
I only need to depend on myself!
It’s just 5 kilometers!
The sword is just 15 kilograms!
2
It is not difficult at all!
By the time Shen Tian reached Myriad Spirit Garden, the sun had already set.
Surprisingly, his feats had spread throughout Myriad Spirit Garden too.
“Have you heard? There is a master in our Myriad Spirit Garden. He can judge the ores very accurately!”
“I heard that he chose the Turquoise Calabash Spirit Ore in the Sacred Spirit Workshop and got a Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash Seed, which can grow into an invincible Mountain Guardian Plant!”
“No! It’s not a seed! It’s the calabash itself! I heard that the calabash is emitting a beautiful rainbow color.”
“Really? I heard that there is a baby inside the ore, and a Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash is hovering over his head. He is fated to become a hero!”
3
“No, that’s not true! I was there and saw what happened. He was not the one opening the ore, he just chose the ore for Fairy Li Lian’er.
“He picked the Sacred Spirit Workshop’s lucky charm for Miss Lian’er.
“There was a Soul Formation Heavenly Venerable Calabash in that Turquoise Calabash Spirit Ore. It said that Fairy Lian’er has fate with it, and it is willing to become her protector.”
The more time passed, the more the rumors were deviating from the truth. When the news reached the Sky Spirit Pavilion, there was hardly a grain of truth.
“Shen Aotian? Disciple of Supremacy Feyte in Dark Grotto on Nippon Mountain?”
“He picked the Turquoise Calabash Spirit Ore for Fairy Lian’er, and there was a Calabash God in it! It’s willing to bless the Li Family for 1,000 years and make Grand White Grotto-Heaven a holy place!”

Shopkeeper Song’s mouth twitched when he heard the news.
Only retards would believe it!
The young shopkeeper was by his father’s side too. His face was less swollen.
“Shen Ao, Shen Aotian. Are they related?”
“They are probably the same person. Shen Ao is a disciple of Grand White Grotto-Heaven too.”
1
“This happened right after my ass got kicked? Is the Li Family trying to warn us?”
“Kicking your ass is too easy for the Li Family and Grand White Grotto-Heaven. They don’t have to make such a huge fuss.”
Shopkeeper Song continued on and said, “There are only two possibilities.
“One, the Li Family really obtained something extraordinary from the ore. They purposely spread these many false rumors so that fewer people would know the truth and go after the treasure.
“What Heavenly Venerable Calabash and Calabash Thearch? They are just a smokescreen!
“Two, they are just helping Shen Ao to build up his reputation. He just learned about how Little Spirit Fairy works with us, and this happened?
“They are probably trying to follow our sales pattern and target the female cultivators to make profits. These rumors are merely trying to catch everyone’s attention, that’s all.
“Nonetheless, both possibilities suggest that the Li Family is supporting him from the shadows. We cannot mess with him!”
Before the Grand White Grotto-Heaven, their Sky Spirit Pavilion was a toy in the palm of their hands!
