Chapter 418: Confession and leniency
"This ......, well, it makes sense, but since you are a loose cultivator without a sect, and you happen to be a body refiner, why don't you go back to Red Maple Valley with me, and after I report this matter to the master, I will officially accept you as an apprentice."
The old man was finally persuaded by Huang Ming, after all, Huang Ming was indeed a body refiner in the late stage of the Six Apertures, and he also took out a "Qi Refining Heart Decision" that was not available in this realm.
Coupled with Huang Ming's novel theory of enterprise management, the old man felt that Huang Ming was a rare talent, and he believed it even if he didn't believe it.
"Thank you, senior, oh, thank you, Master"
Huang Ming was really happy this time, not only did he have an identity and a master now, but even the previous incident of Jiyin Castle pretending to be a monk of Red Maple Valley could barely be explained.
Of course, he had to explain this to the old man.
"Master, there is something I have to tell you", Huang Ming planned to take the initiative to explain.
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"That's right, Master, my little friend and I have been in retreat for ten years after marrying Dan, and we only came out of the customs last year, but when we got home, we found that the whole village was gone, and my family was nowhere to be found."
"Later, when I inquired, I learned that the great changes in the environment of the Barbarian Beast Continent had affected the Terran Continent, and the ten villages near the Barbarian Gate had been moved out in batches two years ago, but no one knew where they had moved."
"Later, we thought that since our family was safe, and my little friend and I had become cultivators, there was no need to go to our family again, so we went to the Barbarian Beast Continent to find out the cause of the great changes in the environment."
The old man nodded and stroked his beard
"Well, that's right, the villages near the Barbarian Gate have indeed moved away one after another three years ago due to the great changes in the environment of the Barbarian Beast Continent, so you and your little friends were originally natives in the Purple Mountain Realm."
"Yes, Master, we only found out later, but at that time, we only wanted to find out the reason for the great changes in the environment of the Barbarian Beast Continent, so we didn't think about joining the Purple Mountain, and then we found out all the way to the Baiyi Realm."
"You actually found the Baiyi Realm?" The old man was taken aback.
"Yes, Master, we didn't want to go to the Baiyi Realm at first, but we encountered a high-level brute beast halfway, and we arrived at the Barbarian Gate of the Baiyi Realm in a daze."
"Oh yes, Master, we also met more than a dozen Purple Mountain monks in the Thousand Needles Soil Forest of the Barbarian Beast Continent, and they obtained the beast core of the Hardskin Jackal Beast there"
Huang Ming said that there is no need to make it up here, what happened after that is true.
"Well, it's normal for you to meet Purple Mountain monks, after all, our Great Xia's Barbarian Gate is in the sphere of influence of Purple Mountain, and Purple Mountain is also famous for selling spirit grass, elixirs, and brute beast materials from the Barbarian Beast Continent."
"Yes, yes, yes, they said that they killed beasts and took cores to exchange with the Changlin Sect, but Master, what I want to say is that those monks in the Purple Mountain recognize us as people from the Red Maple Valley, and we, we didn't deny it"
Huang Ming walked around the mountains and rivers for a long time, and finally got to the point where he and Xiao Hua pretended to be monks of Red Maple Valley.
"Recognize you as my Red Maple Valley? But you didn't deny it? ”
The old man looked at Huang Ming, and he knew what Huang Ming wanted to express.
"Purple Mountain and Changlin Sect have always had material exchanges, so they are naturally familiar with each other, you are a body refiner but not a member of Changlin Sect, then they will naturally think that you are from my Red Maple Valley, it's okay", the old man smiled.
Huang Ming was overjoyed in his heart, it seemed that the first level of pretending to be a Red Maple Valley monk had passed, so he continued.
"Master, there is one more thing I must tell you, when we were separated from the Purple Mountain Monks, we suddenly found that the brute beasts seemed to have a leader and would act in unison, and we agreed that there was a possibility of a beast tide breaking out in the Barbarian Beast Continent."
"There will be a beast tide"
The old man was taken aback again, he was almost full of surprise today.
"Yes, the Purple Mountain Monk was also present at the time, specifically like this......"
So Huang Ming added fuel and vinegar and told the old man what he had said in Jiyin Castle again.
"Hey, if what you said is true, then the great changes in the environment of the Brute Beast Continent in the past few years are most likely due to the fact that the Brute Beasts are preparing to invade our Terran Continent?"
The old man touched his chin and began to ponder.
"Yes, Master, this is also the conclusion that my little friend and I went to the Barbarian Beast Continent to investigate."
"Well, since this is the conclusion that you and the Purple Mountain Monk have reached together, then I will definitely report to the master, okay, do you have anything else, if not, we will return quickly"
"One more thing"
Huang Ming's business hasn't been said yet, he wants to explain about pretending to be a Great Xia envoy in Jiyin Castle.
"And? How much do you really have to do? Say it, say it."
The old man was getting a little impatient.
"That's right, Master, after separating from those monks in the Purple Mountain, my little friend and I met two sixth-level soft earth dragons."
"What? You've encountered a level 6 soft-bodied earth dragon? Or two? The old man continued to be surprised.
"Yes, we can't kill these two sixth-level soft earth dragons, so my little friend led one to run in the direction of Great Xia, and I led the other to run in the direction of Baiyi, and as a result, I went to Baiyi Realm"
"It turns out that you went to the Baiyi Realm like this, well, that's right, the sixth-level soft earth dragon is not something that you can kill in the later stage of the six tricks, you have to run, so what about later? What exactly are you trying to say? ”
"That's the case, Master, when I was chased by the soft earth dragon, I accidentally saved an Immortal Cultivator of the Silver Castle, and then I felt that I should tell them about the outbreak of the beast tide in the Beast Continent, so I followed her to the Silver Castle."
"Well, you did the right thing, if the beast tide really breaks out in the Barbarian Beast Continent, it will definitely affect the entire human race, and you should inform the Baiyi Realm Immortal Cultivation Sect about this matter, and it is a good thing"
The old man nodded, feeling that Huang Ming had done the right thing.
"But Master, I didn't have a sect at that time, and I told them that I was a casual cultivator, but they didn't believe me."
Huang Ming deliberately pretended to be a little aggrieved when he said this.
"Later, I thought about it, since the monks of the Purple Mountain regard me as a person from the Red Maple Valley, then why don't I pretend to be a monk of the Red Maple Valley, saying that I was ordered by the sect to make a special trip to the Baiyi Realm to report the news."
"You're pretending to be our Red Maple Valley monk?" The old man was taken aback again.
"Yes, Master, I know that pretending to be a monk of another sect is a capital crime in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, but I have to do this for the safety of the human race, not to mention that I haven't done anything to be sorry for Red Maple Valley, please understand Master"
"Well......", the old man suddenly squinted and looked at Huang Ming without saying a word.
"You go and inform the Baiyi Realm Immortal Cultivator Sect that there may be a beast tide in the Beast Continent, which is a good thing, but you pretend to be our Red Maple Valley monk, hum, ......, this is also a good thing"
The old man came to gasp, he did it on purpose.
Huang Ming surprised him today and was almost full, he had to scare Huang Ming no matter what, so that Huang Ming was also a little surprised.
Sure enough, this time it was Huang Ming's turn to be surprised.
"Huh?"
Huang Ming opened his mouth wide, he didn't expect this old man to be quite naughty, and he actually scared himself.
