I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 998 - 999: This Damn Blade Sect
Chapter 998: Chapter 999: This Damn Blade Sect
Li Xiaobai had come to the Lower Realm solely to save the Immortal Spirit Continent, and now that he had achieved his goals, it was time for him to return to the Central Origin Realm.
Moreover, he had yet to settle his grievances with the Buddhism of the Western Continent!
“My granddaughter will require your extra attention, Prince Consort.”
“You can feel at ease, Prince Consort, with us here in the Immortal Spirit Continent; no chaos will arise again!”
The Old Dragon King nodded, did not hold him back, saying that shallow waters cannot nurture a sea dragon, and now that the cultivation level of the Prince Consort was profoundly immense, there was nothing on the Immortal Spirit Continent that could aid him further; it was natural for him to proceed towards higher echelons.
Li Xiaobai, “Before parting, there is one matter I entrust.”
...
Old Dragon King, “Just say it, Prince Consort, and I will do all within my power!”
“In the Central Origin Realm, there are great figures from the Immortal Spirit Continent that I yearn to explore; these days I’d trouble you, Dragon King, to search for information on the Confucian Path, particularly about the Confucian Saint Beichen Feng and the Great Immortal Zhenyuan.”
Li Xiaobai spoke slowly.
“The Great Immortal Zhenyuan and Confucian Saint Beichen Feng were both prominent figures who ascended to the Upper Realm a thousand years ago, yet they still survive within the bounds of the Central Origin Realm!”
Hearing these words, the Old Dragon King seemed surprised; both individuals were founder-level figures, and it was truly unbelievable to him that Li Xiaobai could encounter and interact with such figures spanning several epochs.
Li Xiaobai nodded slightly, “Even in the Central Origin Realm, these two seniors are among the top experts; it is not strange for them to live for over a thousand years. In fact, the two seniors who entered the Central Origin Realm through the Linglong Pagoda were from the same era as them.”
“Unexpectedly, those two seniors also…”
“Those two didn’t leave behind a pure lineage of the Confucian Path; the scholars of the past had declined, lost in the river of time. However, Beichen Feng has some connections with Buddhism, so Master Xuan Bei should be able to find plenty of information.”
After a moment of thought, the Old Dragon King spoke; nowadays, the influence of the Confucian Path was weak on the Immortal Spirit Continent, with most scholars hiding within the realm of mortals. Occasionally, some embarked on the path of cultivation but didn’t get far; therefore, the reputation of the Confucian Path was not prominent.
“No worries, a hint or clue will suffice.”
Li Xiaobai said.
Old Dragon King nodded, “Rest assured, I will find out everything.”
…
After bidding farewell to the Old Dragon King and under the gaze of the populace of the Undersea World, Li Xiaobai and his group departed.
Fu Tiantian was still driving, while Li Xiaobai and a hundred children sat in the rear compartment, quietly enjoying the undersea scenery.
“Woof woof woof!”
A small white dog frantically darted among the children, appearing very excited, and the children, equally delighted, yelled and shouted non-stop, circling around the dog.
Watching this blissful scene, Li Xiaobai extinguished his cigarette and said lightly, “Ergouzi, when did you start liking kids so much?”
Just looking at this damn dog’s face plastered with a cheap grin was enough to know it was definitely up to no good!

“Kid, where did you get so many exceptionally talented children?”
Ergouzi leaned in to ask.
“Picked them up on the side of the road.”
Li Xiaobai glanced at it, speaking indifferently.
“That doesn’t seem right. Look at those kids over there; their bodies are filled with celestial light, and there’s a faint mist of immortality surrounding them, completely different from the power of Immortal Yuan, purer and more refined!”
“And look at these; there’s a faint golden glow in their eyes, a divine aura that speaks of a battlefield, almost makes you believe they are reincarnations of the War God!”
“But the most extraordinary among them is that one over there. Look at this baby, unlike any other, a mere child yet already a leader among these kids—clearly extraordinary!”
Ergouzi went on and on, evaluating the children, spittle flying and eyes gleaming with excitement.
“Yes, each of these children is remarkable, I can sense a mysterious power within each of them!”
Liu Jinshui also chimed in, having been drawn to these children from early on, and quite curious about their origins.
“Don’t even think about it; these children are extraordinary and destined for great things.”
Li Xiaobai spoke nonchalantly.
“How could I? I’ve always been kind-hearted; how could I possibly have any ill intentions?”
With his mouth dripping with drool, Ergouzi once again ran back to play joyfully with the children. The mystique of their power was too great, it observed, hoping to uncover their secrets for its own use.
“These children are mine; you and your worthless self can go cool off elsewhere.”
Ji Wuqing said from the side, lying comfortably on the baby’s head.
“I’m totally riding the popularity wave here, stand aside.”
Ergouzi stood up and knocked the little yellow chick to the ground, pressing it beneath his paw before continuing to pull faces to charm the children.
Li Xiaobai was suddenly speechless. If children could have insights, it was because of the Buddhist Sect’s new method experiment; this dog wanting the same was simply dreaming.
“Speaking of, is the little girl driving the new disciple Brother Li recently took under his wing?” Liu Jinshui cocked his head and asked.
“Exactly, she’s my Great Disciple, and that baby over there is the second disciple. Since you’re also an uncle now, shouldn’t you give something?”
Li Xiaobai asked with a smirk.
Liu Jinshui cleared his throat and said, “Well, I’m a bit strapped for cash recently, I’ll definitely give something next time!”
Li Xiaobai: “…”
The big truck emerged from the water and sped towards the Northern Region.
The altar in the Northern Region connected to the Eastern Continent of the Central Origin Realm, Sword Sect’s territory, very safe.
“Master, we’ve arrived!”
After a moment’s time, Fu Tiantian’s voice came through, and the surrounding scenery changed to the familiar Holy Demon Sect territory.
“Brother Li is here!”
“It’s Brother Li!”
“Welcome Brother Li!”
Disciples within the Sect seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar heavy-duty truck solemnly bowed and saluted.
Only Brother Li managed to drive such a steel beast.
Next to the Five-colored Altar, Ou Yezi and others were standing guard.
Seeing Li Xiaobai, they approached: “Xiaobai, the altar has been moved from the back mountain to within the sect, ready for use anytime.”
“Thank you, Sect Master!”
Li Xiaobai nodded, tossing out a pile of top-grade Immortal Stones to open the spatial passage.
“The Central Origin Realm is dangerous; unfortunately, as your Sect Master my power is limited and I can’t do much to help you, just wishing you smooth sailing and be careful in everything!”
“Thanks for the kind thoughts, Sect Master, Li Xiaobai will remember the grace of the Holy Demon Sect!”
“These children are still young, can they adapt to the Central Origin Realm, do you need some nannies sent along to care for them?”
Ou Yezi looked at the hundred children, his brow slightly furrowed.
“No need for such trouble, it’s precisely because they are young that they should enter the Central Origin Realm and lay a strong foundation, they need to learn to be independent.”
Li Xiaobai waved his hand, chuckling.
“My friends, the green mountains will always be there and the rivers never cease, we shall meet again!”
The heavy-duty truck drove into the spatial passage, and after a few breaths, the light on the altar faded, the spatial passage closed, and all was calm.
…
Central Origin Realm.
Eastern Continent.
A heavy-duty truck sped out of a spatial passage, thunder booming loudly, resounding incessantly.
“Haha, Ol’Fatty is back!”
“Little junior brother, let your senior brother check out your peak!”
“Eh? Wait a sec, little junior brother, aren’t you the Peak Master of Sword Sect? Why are those disciples up front holding swords?”
As everyone joyfully re-entered the Central Origin Realm, on calming down they immediately realized something was amiss.
Many young disciples were guarding the altar, all with swords slung on their backs, a style all too familiar to Li Xiaobai.
“Damn, this is definitely Blade Sect!”
“I knew something was off when the Great Flame Dynasty’s altar disappeared; turns out it was the Blade Sect who moved it!”
