Chapter 24: Fantasy Cinnabar Mole (Part 1)


Translated by peonynoveltl


Mozong's most valuable treasure is the Purple Heart Lotus.


This is a magical flower that is very rare in the whole continent. Instead of calling it a magical flower, it's more appropriate to call it a magical elixir!


According to legend, even if it's an immature Purple Heart Lotus, it can bring ordinary people back to life after consuming it, both flesh and bones. Cultivator's can wash the marrow clean* and enhance their strength, becoming a peak powerhouse in a very short amount of time.


*purify and strengthen the body


The mature Purple Heart Lotus has the powerful effect of letting people break through the peak realm and become immortal. It's highly sought after by the powerhouses in the continent because no one has been able to break through the higher level realm for thousands of years.


However, this flower has a very long growth cycle, it requires about hundreds of years. The conditions for growing it are also extremely demanding. This flower may come by luck, but not by searching for it.


Qin Shitian acquired it by chance and spent a lot of effort to transplant it to Mozong. He carefully planted and waited for it mature so that he can become the world's supreme venerable once consumed.


But who knew that Mo Haige would cut off his path to success and steal away the Purple Heart Lotus that was a few months away from maturing, benefiting Jun Yanhan and letting him gain great power to become Qin Shitian's enemy.


Regardless of whether or not Qin Shitian will become Jun Yanhan and Mo Haige's enemy, he can't let Jun Yanhan acquire the Purple Heart Lotus's power.


Who knows if the two will face each other over other matters in the future? After all, Qin Shitian is the great devil leader and the other is a righteous hero, the hostility will always exist.


Mo Haige returning to steal the treasure is obviously after careful planning. Gu Bai followed behind him and watched him skillfully knock out the guards all the way and changing them with his own trusted subordinates, then he smoothly arrived at secret chamber where there Purple Heart Lotus is planted.


Gu Bai who is following his back sighed in his heart, there's indeed no perfection in this world. A powerhouse like Qin Shitian will also have a day of negligence, he doesn't even know that Mo Haige has gathered his own trusted subordinates inside the sect.


Gu Bai doesn't know the location of the secret chamber, but luckily he knew that Mo Haige will go steal the treasure. Purple Heart Lotus is Mozong's most valuable treasure, it's extremely precious and no one can even get a glimpse of it. Mo Haige knows the location because Qin Shitian took him there before.


Soon, Gu Bai who has been following Mo Haige arrived at a quite valley and entered a remote cave.


But don't know where went wrong, the Purple Heart Lotus originally planted in the cave was missing!


"Impossible, impossible....."


Mo Haige shook his head in disbelief.


In the past few years, even if he became more slow-witted, he can still feel Qin Shitian's gradual dislike. According to Qin Shitian’s temperament, something important like Purple Heart Lotus, apart from himself, he won't let anyone else know about it. Therefore, it's normal to transplant it after disliking him.


It's just that the conditions to grow the Purple Heart Lotus are extremely harsh. It can't be transplanted as you wish. In the entire Mozong, only this cave is qualified, the Purple Heart Lotus can't be planted in other soils. That thing must still be inside this cave!


Thinking this way, Mo Haige began to search for it inside the cave. As the young sect leader, although he hasn't been able to keep up with the martial arts strength in recent years, but using his title as the young sect leader, he read many books in the library and acquired a lot of knowledge, mechanisms and calculations are nothing difficult.


Under his patient search, he soon discovered something suspicious and found a button that revealed the secret chamber inside the secret chamber!


With a happy face, Mo Haige went in and Gu Bai also quietly followed.


As soon as they entered the dark chamber, that precious Purple Heart Lotus was indeed inside, planted in a white jade flower pot on a stone platform.


However, Mo Haige didn't immediately went over, his eyes stared at the scroll paintings that hung on the wall of the secret chamber. He was shocked by the content on the scroll paintings.


In Mozong, Mo Haige has seen a lot and has a broad range of knowledge*, but even if he saw more and gained more knowledge, it still can't prevent the shock caused by the scroll paintings on the wall of the secret chamber.


*见多识广 experienced and knowledgeable


Those scroll paintings are erotic pictures. The content of those pictures not only depict two men, but the appearance of those two men are also very familiar.


It's his master Qin Shitian and the sect's refining genius, that little guard who was by his master's side, Ah Jiu!


Both of them are naked in the picture and the fair and tender boy is either pressed down or held by a mature man, or the boy directly rides on top of the man's body. The pictures are unrestrained and extremely erotic.


Especially the expressions on that boy's face, it's absolutely lifelike. There's also a portrait of the boy hanging in the center of the secret chamber.


The above is a picture of the boy leaning on the edge of the bathtub, taking a lazy bath. Mo Haige has a good eyesight and in one glance, he saw that the color of the boy's face is slightly lighter than other parts of the painting, it's obviously fading caused by rubbing over the years.


It turns out that the reason why master doesn't look at him in recent years is because there's someone else in his heart.....


Mo Haige withdrew his gaze and thought secretly, he couldn’t help but feel a little more cold and disgusted with Qin Shitian, his heart changed so easily. He hates people with inconsistent heart* the most in life. Fortunately, he wasn't tempted by his master!


*三心二意 change one's mind constantly; hesitant and wavering; half-hearted
