Chapter 1048: Taiping Taozhu
“You found me? I guess I should’ve known you would have some skills considering that you dared to ruin my plans!”
It was at this moment the woman looked up with a hint of surprise.
The pond she was sitting next to was no ordinary pond. It was her Bonded Strange Artifact called A Water. It could conceal energy, seclude itself from the world, and create “life”.
Conceal energy was obvious. “Secluding itself from the world” contained two meanings. One, it could hide itself in the void and become almost undetectable even by a Half-Sage. Two, even if it was detected, the distance between the Strange Artifact and the threat was much, much further than it appeared. Most enemies would not be able to cover that distance and force her to show herself.
“A water may exist between the clouds and the sky.” Hence the name.
Her Bonded Strange Artifact gave her the ability to fight anyone from a theoretically unassailable position. That was why she never imagined that this young man would find her and even force her to reveal herself. Not only did he surpass her expectations, the alarm bells inside her head were ringing slightly and warning her of danger.
“I wasn’t expecting the notorious Mister Taozhu to be a beautiful woman either, so we’re even,” remarked Ye Qing with not a small dose of surprise himself.
Mister Taozhu was one of the Three Misters of the Way of Taiping and on the same level as the Four Sakyamunis. The Three Misters of the Way of Taiping were all named warriors on the Earthly Champions Ranking, but they were more mysterious than the Four Sakyamunis. For one, they rarely took to the battlefield themselves. Even if they did, they usually hid behind a curtain of anonymity.
Out of the Three Misters, Mister Taozhu was the most mysterious of them all. Mister Taozhu was an expert in creating life from clay, and her creations were more anomalous than most. Not only could she create an unbelievable amount of clay statues in a short time, her creations could mimic her enemy’s face, techniques, and even cultivation level.
