Chapter 374: (3): Encountering Old Friends in a Foreign Land
The burly young man returned to Narrow Wasp Alley, slowly walking toward its tail end. In the middle section of the alley, there were two large and vacant residences opposite each other. There were colorful door gods plastered on the gates of the two residences, and these door gods still looked brand new even though they hadn't been swapped for several hundred years. One residence was decorated with two scholarly door gods, while the other residence was decorated with two martial door gods.
When the burly young man walked past the two residences, he had tossed a wine pot with each hand, causing the four colorful door gods to his left and right to immediately glow brightly. Each door god extended a hand to catch a wine pot, then placed the wine pot inside the gates. Afterward, a painted wine pot mysteriously appeared in the paintings of a scholarly door god and a martial door god.
After drinking their fill, they passed the wine pots to their companions on the adjacent gates. When they finished drinking, all four colorful door gods returned to normal. The paper near one of the bearded martial door gods' facial hair appeared a little soggy, but it quickly dried up and left no trace.
The burly young man returned to the residence where he lived by himself. The residence appeared very quiet and lonely, and it had already been this way for many years. His master liked to travel around the world, and he always used to announce with confidence that he would definitely bring a breathtakingly beautiful wife back home. This time, however, his master wasn't heading out to look for a wife who potentially wasn't even born yet. Instead, he was heading out to attend to proper matters.
His master claimed that he was looking for the colored glaze golden body of some Upper Five Tier cultivator who had passed away. A few pieces of this cultivator's colored glaze golden body had fallen into Eastern Treasured Vial Continent, so he would definitely strike it rich if he could obtain one of these pieces. At that time, he would have enough money to find himself a wife.
For the sake of obtaining a piece of the deceased cultivator's colored glaze golden body, his master even asked one of his best friends for help. Otherwise, he might not be powerful enough to compete with the other old bastards. With some assistance from his good friend, however, he would have a much better chance at succeeding.
The burly young man felt slightly worried about this. The treasure was profoundly valuable, after all, so would his master's so-called good friend be tempted by it?
However, his master had laughed loudly and replied that this was definitely possible with any other person in Eastern Treasured Vial Continent, except for the old geezer who called himself Handsome Chivalrous Young Man. Even though this old geezer was stubborn and bad-tempered, he was widely regarded as someone with no guilt in his heart on the path of cultivation.
The Handsome Chivalrous Young Man had fought with his life on the line two times, once to stand up for his friend, and once to defend the honor of his sect. He had advanced to the Unpolished Jade Tier twice, yet these two battles had caused him to fall back to the Nascent Tier twice. Even Ascension Tier elites might not be as gallant and chivalrous as him.
