Choosing a Blade (1)

Are you there? What are you doing? Have you eaten?

The humble dog-licking song sounded in Huai Bai’s head, sighed, and let go. Xiao Bai snapped and fell on the boat board, “You are like this, and I don’t have the heart to scold you.”

Xiao Bai pouted, “What’s wrong with me?”

The peacock glanced at her contemptuously, her wings flapped, and with her shaking feathers, she flew towards the sky. The silver-white feathers are hidden in the vast sea of clouds, which is difficult to distinguish.

Xiao Bai jumped up and flew over, “Miss Sister, wait for me!”

The young lady said that she didn’t want to care about her and that she can eat fart.

The sun pierced obliquely, to which Huai Bai squinted and smiled: “I really envy you.”

Rong Jibai said, “Master, what do you envy? Did you envy her eating fart?”

Huai Bai was very helpless, “You can stay silent appropriately.”

Rong Jibai: “The heavens gave me a mouth, why can’t I talk, I don’t…”

Cang Hai covered her mouth with the other hand around her body, making her unable to move, “Master, you continue to say.”

Huai Bai held her forehead, “The emotions that were finally brewing are gone, what shall I say?”

The four little ones on the boat were still tilting their heads, looking at her curiously, with bright eyes.

Huai Bai squatted down and sighed, “Disciples, I tell you that when I was young, I liked someone wholeheartedly and pursued her desperately. This is a very precious thing.”

Zhao Jianyi put down his models and asked, “Why?”

Huai Bai smiled, “Because we get older, this kind of courage to disregard everything for one person will slowly disappear, and people’s hearts will become harder and harder to be touched. When you are young, it’s easy to fall in love with someone, but it’s harder when you are older.”

She smiled and looked over, “Fortunately, you are all teenagers.”

Cang Hai looked down silently, feeling inferior in her heart, “Master, I am several hundred years old.”

Rong Jibai finally broke free from Cang Hai’s arms and said, “Master, when we hear that, we can tell you are a person with a story!”

Gushan kept the Shiling matter very tight, and the three of them should have no idea.

A strange feeling emerged in Pei Yu’s heart. Only she is aware of Master’s pain, and she is the one who truly understands Master.

Huai Bai said, “This is a talk of experience.”

Rong Jibai asked again: “Have you chased someone like this?”

Who knows what Huai Bai thought of, and she smiled slightly, with a gentle brow, “I didn’t chase after her, she chased me.”

This said, everyone became curious, and even the nine-tailed cat and the seven-headed carp flew to the side to listen.

“She? Who is she?” Rong Jibai’s curiosity was about to overflow. “Master, do you have anyone you like before?”

Huai Bai snapped her forehead with a finger, “In any case, your master was a genius. As a genius, there must be a story.”

Rong Jibai didn’t take her boastful words seriously anymore. She only shook her sleeves and said coquettishly: “Master, who is that person? Tell us.”

“She was a very strange person,” Huai Bai frowned, seeming to think of their first encounter. “The first time I saw her, I felt that she was different from ordinary people. When she laughed, she was crying. When she was standing in the sun, the sun seemed to have frozen into ice, and when the wind passed by her, she would be frozen to death.”

Rong Jibai said in vain, “That’s terrifying, it must be a terrible thing to be pursued by her.”

Huai Bai raised her lips, looked at the sea of snowy clouds, and stretched her eyebrows, “It’s not like that. Everyone is afraid of her, but I just feel pity, and can’t help thinking how desperate a person has to be to become that look. “

Pei Yu lowered her head to hide the wetness in her eyes.

Rong Jibai asked curiously, “What then? Is that person with you?”

“She is dead.”

“Ah…” Unexpectedly, things would develop like this, Rong Jibai quickly said: “Who killed her? Master, you must avenge her!”

Huai Bai smiled, “The person who killed her was too powerful, and beautiful. Sending a sword to kill them would be too bad.”

She looked at the shocked faces of the apprentices, and said, “Some people are not worthy of redemption. It’s okay to kill them.”

The two demons felt the murderous aura on her body and quickly jumped away.

“Master, I don’t understand. You mean, is she a bad person?”

Huai Bai said, “Maybe she is.”

She looked into the distance, with complexity and a touch of melancholy in her eyes.

Rong Jibai wanted to ask again, but was stopped by the Cang Hai who held her hand and gently shook her head towards her.

The treasure ship turned slowly in the air.

Huai Bai took Pei Yu’s hand and said happily, “Cub, let’s choose a magic weapon that will give you an advantage.”

Zhao Jianyi asked, “Are you going to Zhuoyu Peak?”

Huai Bai nodded, “Naturally, the senior sister lost to me in a mahjong game a few days ago and owed me a lot of good things. If I asked her for a weapon, she would never refuse.”

Zhao Jianyi smiled and said, “Master, playing mahjong all day long a few days ago, is it to win a high-grade magic weapon for the little junior sister?”

Rong Jibai’s white brows tangled, “Master, you are really partial. We have been with you for so long, and we don’t even have a middle-grade magic weapon.”

Huai Bai smiled and curled her eyes, “Isn’t this win a full complement. What do you want?”

Zhao Jianyi said: “I want a furnace. In the future, some mechanical parts can be made by myself instead of buying it.”

“Third and Fourth, how about you?”

Rong Jibai thought for a while, “I want a pen to practice drawing symbols.”

Zhao Jianyi laughed out, “Drawing symbols?”

Huai Bai also smiled, “Third, I didn’t expect you to be so diligent.”

Rong Jibai paled and blushed, “I, I am a very powerful talisman cultivator!”

Huai Bai smiled but said nothing.

After some time, she should be able to buy new works for the rest of her life at the market.

“Fourth, what do you want?”

Cang Hai thought for a moment, then slowly shook her head, “I have nothing to want.” She turned her head to look at Rong Jibai, “Senior Sister still has a favorite magical weapon?”

The azure blue eyes were intoxicated and misty, making Rong Jibai think of the boundless sea. She asked seriously: “Yes, Master, is there a magic weapon called the golden house in this world?”

Huaibo said, “Well, you should go ask Wenjun.”

Rong Jibai laughed, her eyes bent into crescents, “I’ll ask Zhuoyu Peak Master if there is a magic weapon called the golden house that allows me to hide Cang Hai.”

Golden house… hide a beloved.

(T/N: so hiding a beloved in a golden house is like keeping a lover in the house without letting them leave and pampering them with money and etc etc)

Cang Hai lowered her blue eyes, her little finger slightly hooked Rong Jibai’s finger.

Huai Bai looked on with emotion. It was unexpected for her to accept Cang Hai as a student.

She has no complaints about demons, but Cang Hai’s identity is so special that it is really troublesome to bring her back to Gushan.

But this kid is really… strong.

Huai Bai recalled the huge redness floating in the sea that day, sighed in her heart, and put her hand on the thin shoulder of Cang Hai, where there was a hideous old wound.

Cang Hai was taken aback for a moment, then raised her head obediently, and whispered: “Master.”

Huai Bai patted her on the shoulder, and asked Pei Yu: “Cub, what do you want?”

Pei Yu said: “A blade.” She paused for a while, then added: “It’s good to be lower grade.”

Zhuoyu Peak is different from the other five peaks.

On one side is the Chiyan volcano, with boiling sea flames, and on the other side is coldest winter with falling snow.

Between ice and fire, there is a huge melting pot that leads directly to the heavens and the earth.

Zhuoyu Peak Master is like a boneless snake, leaning on the couch like a beauty, with her mouth opening lightly, and receiving a freshly peeled ice jade grape. Her palace is built in the middle of fire and ice, neither hot nor cold, very comfortable.

“Hey, Ba Shi.” Zhuoyu Peak Master squinted her beautiful eyes comfortably, looking at the beauty who was carefully peeling grapes in front of her, and unknowingly she spit out a local dialect.

Beautiful and delicious, really beautiful and delicious.

(T/N: Ba Shi is the most widely used Sichuan dialect meaning a contented attitude towards life, the general summary means “the beautiful side of things”)

Just after saying this, her eyes suddenly widened and her body straightened up.

Huangzhong Peak Master asked: “What?”

The peak masters of all peaks have enchantments in their own turf. Zhuoyu Peak Master perceives that Huai Bai and her party are flying over early. She bent down and wanted to hide under the bed, but she didn’t think it was right. She opened the closet and took a look. Finally she opened the window and said, “Little Bai has brought her apprentices here. I have lost so many things to her, so I have to hide.”

Halfway through, her hand pushing the window stopped.

Huai Bai led a group of young disciples, sitting under the window with a smile at her.

Fate is wonderful.

“Senior Sister, what a coincidence.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master shed tears in her heart, but smiled on her face, “Little Bai, what are you doing standing outside the window? Come in.”

Huai Bai looked at her with a smile, “Senior Sister, do you remember what you promised me three days ago?”

How could Zhuoyu Peak Master not remember?

At that time, she had a gambling addiction and lost all the spirit stones on her body, so she boasted and said that if she lost again, she would let Huai Bai enter Langhuan Pavilion to choose at will.

(T/N: not sure if important but Langhuan has an official meaning of “mythical fairy realm)

Gambling is a mistake!

Zhuoyu Peak Master wept silently, “You brought so many people here, do you want to grab all the artifacts that I have worked so hard to collect?”

Huai Bai smiled and said, “Senior Sister, I would like to bet.”

Huangzhong Peak Master walked over and whispered: “Don’t break your promise.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master was helpless, and took a few people to the Langhuan Pavilion. She kept chanting, “These are all magic weapons I have worked so hard to obtain. The worst are all top grade. If you are just getting started, you can get a top-grade magic weapon. Otherwise, you will be coveted easily if you are full with strange treasures.”

Huangzhong Peak Master asked: “Does little Bai still need magical artifacts? Wenjun has newly refined a sword, which is not bad.”

Huai Bai waved her hand and pointed at Pei Yu, “No, I’m just choosing Dharma tools for my apprentice.”

“What does she want?”

“A blade.”

The faces of the two peak masters were calm, not surprised.

In the Shouxian Peak, the swordswoman practiced the sword, the archer used the bow, and there were talisman cultivators, tool cultivators, and evil spirits. It is not a rare thing to have one more sword wielder.

Zhuoyu Peak Master nodded, “A sword is the courage of a hundred soldiers, and you should step on the road with your apprentice…” She remembered that this matter should not be mentioned again, so she changed her words, “It matches the temperament of your little apprentice.” They are both ruthless characters.

Langhuan Pavilion is divided into three floors.

On the first floor are some top-grade artifacts, with a dazzling array of brilliance.

Rong Jibai and Zhao Jianyi had a clear purpose, and when they found what they wanted, they waved their hands to stop.

“Cub, which blade do you like?”

In front of her were three cold light blades that looked like cold and raw gems.

Zhuoyu Peak Master picked up a slightly narrow sword, the blade was as thin as a cicada’s wing, and the blade was extremely sharp. She said, “This is called the Nine Deaths. It was once matched by the former City Lord of Jiangjin. It is a top-grade magic weapon, very suitable for girls to wield.”

Pei Yu shook her head and swept through the three swords without feeling touched in her heart.

She just wanted to get back the inferior blade that she had matched with in her previous life.

After Zhuoyu Peak Master introduced them one by one, the child in front of them still looked like she had little interest. She was very surprised, “No, don’t you look down on these three?”

Pei Yu said: “I only want to go below…”

She only needs lower grade magical weapons.

Huai Bai interrupted her and said with a smile: “My apprentice meant that the magic artifact below is too bad, she wanted to look above.”

Zhen’s thoughts:

Not Huai Bai changing Pei Yu’s words at the end. Also hehe, Huangzhong Peak Master and Zhuoyu Peak Master acting a little sus there. Feeding grapes to someone as the other is laying languidly on a coach is not exactly “friendship goals”, and why is Huangzhong Peak Master just at Zhuoyu Peak like it’s her home? Sounds gay if you ask me!

BTW, I will be updating this at 8 PM EST from now on to make it easier for me to keep up with translations. I just cannot wake up that early to work on all of the translations.
