Chapter 530 - The Woman and the Legendary Artifact
Feng Tianlan frowned and said in a deep voice, “I really don’t want to be the headmaster of the Flying Frost Pavilion. Even if I know about the Flying Frost Pavilion’s secret, I still don’t want to become the headmaster.”
Although she really wanted to know, she didn’t want the Flying Frost Pavilion. That’s why she didn’t ask him to tell her the secret.
“Master!” Pang Tai pulled at his old skin and shouted grievously. He had been keeping this secret for a long time. But after seeing Feng Tianlan look so grave, he stopped mentioning it. He squatted on the ground unhappily and drew circles with another stick. The circles that he could never escape.
In a short while, Little Furball returned. It jumped onto her shoulder as always. Although it was just the size of a puppy, it made Feng Tianlan’s shoulder sink quite a bit. She took a Beast Pill from its mouth and started to refine it into a Beast Vitality Pill.
After refining the pill, she saw Pang Tai still drawing circles by the side, just like a child. She couldn’t help but feel like laughing. A Spiritual Emperor, the strongest ranked of the Guiyuan Continent was drawing circles on the ground like a child. No one would believe her if she told them about it.
“Master, I won’t force you to become the Flying Frost Pavilion’s headmaster anymore. Say something please. I feel suffocated.” Pang Tai looked at Feng Tianlan with a pleading look.
Feng Tianlan pondered for a while and sat beside him. She put heavy Little Furball down on the ground and listened to him quietly.
Pang Tai paused for a short while, then he started talking. He started from the origin of the Flying Frost Pavilion. The founder had been Xuantian Continent’s God Emperor Supreme. As it was a long time ago and they were founded on Guiyuan Continent which had a weak spiritual force, so the disciples of the Flying Frost Pavilion had deteriorated generation by generation. The strongest disciple they had was only a Spiritual Emperor.
“Actually, that’s not really a secret. The Flying Frost Pavilion was just a branch from the great forces of Xuantian Continent. We are just like a small branch from a big tree. They separated us because they wanted us to look for something.”
“Is it the Legendary Artifact from thousands of years ago?” Feng Tianlan couldn’t help thinking about the pearl that appeared in her dream. The pearl that could be exchanged for one’s beloved.
Pang Tai nodded. Paused, then, shook his head. “Not exactly. To find a woman. We were told that we could find the Legendary Artifact once the woman was found. Perhaps it is because it was such a long time ago, we don’t even know what the woman looked like, not even her features. Besides, we had no idea what the Legendary Artifact was.”
Feng Tianlan let out a soft “uh-huh”. She couldn’t help but think that perhaps the man in purple had regretted his decision, which was why he wanted to look for the woman who he exchanged for the pearl.
“After this quest was passed down generation after generation, a lot of things became unclear. Furthermore, the people from Xuantian Continent did not contact us. Therefore, this matter became more and more vague. We had no other choice but to establish our own academy. When the information finally reached my great-grandmaster, it was totally ambiguous. There had been no news about it anymore.”
After listening to Pang Tai, Feng Tianlan made a deduction. “Besides the Legendary Artifact, there isn’t much that’s secretive about this matter.”
“I thought that was it, but sixteen years ago, people from Xuantian Continent came to the Flying Frost Pavilion once again and renewed the order to find this woman. This time, we were told a fact about her features. As long as she has a zhusha mole, she is the one.”
A smile tugged at the corners of Feng Tianlan’s mouth. “If my Mobai were a lady, I believe he would be the one you’re looking for.”
After meeting many people in Guiyuan Continent, Mobai was the only one she knew who had a blood-like zhusha mole. But he was a guy.
“Master, you must consider that I have been alone for my whole life, stop agitating me!” Pang Tai was saying in protest. She had called Si Mobai hers so naturally. That was too big of a blow to a lonely man’s heart.
“What does this have to do with you staying in the Forbidden Island and being unable to leave this place?” Feng Tianlan asked.
