Chapter 671: Chapter 671: Six Paths Seizure
Huh?
Jiang Fan decisively retreated.
Staring at the resurrected Green Crane Masters, his expression was complex.
Sea Charm’s face turned pale as she exclaimed, “He… how did he come back to life again?”
Jiang Fan squinted his eyes and said, “It’s not resurrection.”
“It’s body possession.”
“Old coot, you really never miss a chance to possess a body!”
The one standing up again wasn’t the Green Crane Masters at all?
It was clearly the Six-Path Masters!
Green Crane Masters… Or rather, the Six-Path Masters stood up.
He looked down at his dry and old body with a face full of disdain:
“This body doesn’t have much lifespan left, and it was drained of quite some essence blood by the blood dress.”
“If only it were the corpse of Yan Dao’an.”
“Alas!”
Jiang Fan rolled his eyes at him, “You complain even when there’s meat to eat?”
“Without me snuffing you out, you should be grateful for sneaking away.”
Indeed.
Originally, the Six-Path Masters were suppressed by Jiang Fan, their life and death at Jiang Fan’s whim.
Body possession and rebuilding was something unthinkable.
Now, he finally succeeded in possession.
Yet he still complained.
His thoughts clear, the Six-Path Masters smiled broadly.
“Thank you, kid, for accommodating me.”
Jiang Fan interrupted him, “No, I didn’t help you possess a body.”
However, the Six-Path Masters laughed and said, “But you never killed me.”
“Perhaps because of the little bond between us?”
Back when the possession failed and Jiang Fan suppressed him, Jiang Fan could have killed him then.
But he never did.
Jiang Fan said flatly, “You misunderstood, I just forgot.”
The Six-Path Masters only smiled without speaking.
How meticulous is Jiang Fan?
How could he forget his existence?
The reason could only be that Jiang Fan held a shred of sentiment, unwilling to kill him.
Noticing the Purple Sword in Jiang Fan’s hand, sometimes clenched, sometimes loosened.
The Six-Path Masters understood.
Jiang Fan wanted to let him go yet worried about him wreaking havoc once freed.
He couldn’t help but wear a complex expression and sighed:
“Alright! I won’t make things difficult for you.”
“I promise you, I won’t senselessly kill the innocent in the future.”
“Unless provoked by others.”
Jiang Fan thought for a moment.
Retracted the Purple Sword and said, “You better keep your promise.”
“Otherwise, I won’t mind letting you follow in the footsteps of Green Crane Masters!”
The old face of the Six-Path Masters twitched a little.
“That old fox Green Crane, such a cunning person, yet he died at your hand in the end.”
“No one would believe it if word got out.”
“But…”
He paused and said, “That old fox left a trump card before his death.”
“As far as I know, he tricked and killed no less than three Nascent Soul cultivators.”
“The things he looted are quite astonishing!”
“How could there be so little in the Space Storage Ring?”
“There’s only one explanation: he anticipated his soul leaving the body and left a path for rebuilding after body possession.”
Jiang Fan’s heart shook.
What an old fox!
He even left such a backup plan!
Suddenly.
Jiang Fan’s gaze shifted, scrutinizing the Six-Path Masters:
“Didn’t you leave any backup path or something?”
For cunningness, the Six-Path Masters was no slouch either.
He almost possessed Jiang Fan!
The Six-Path Masters was slightly stunned.
When he noticed Jiang Fan looking at him as if watching a treasure mountain.
He was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared, “You little brat, you’re thinking about my stuff now!”
“If I had a backup plan, would I be in this predicament?”
That made sense.
Jiang Fan said, “What are your plans for the future then?”
The Six-Path Masters chuckled:
“Naturally, it’s to find the treasures left by that old fox.”
“Though I possess a Nascent Soul Body, the body is severely injured, not to mention my soul is a remnant soul.”
“I urgently need a large amount of resources for replenishment.”
Paused for a moment.
The Six-Path Masters’ eyes flashed, saying, “Of course, I’ll leave a little for you as well.”
“When you come to Taicang State, I’ll present it to you.”
Jiang Fan looked at him askew.
Not believing, “Are you that kind-hearted?”
“Maybe you want something from me?”
He knew the Six-Path Masters too well.
This guy wouldn’t wake up early without a deal, always wanting to take everything for himself.
How could he be kind enough to give Jiang Fan something?
“Cough, cough, don’t speak of our relationship so heartlessly.”
“We’ve gone through hardships together.”
“Of course, I do indeed have a small request.”
The Six-Path Masters extended his pinky, indicating a very small matter.
“Heh~”
Jiang Fan gave him a disdainful look, “Is it a little bit, or an ‘eoni-bit’?”
The Six-Path Masters chuckled awkwardly, “A little, really just a little.”
“Aren’t you going to the inner court of the Tiger Demon Emperor with this unconscious woman?”
“I want to ask you to pay attention, is my personal Magic Artifact from back then in the inner court?”
“Back then, I was ambushed by the Tiger Demon Emperor, and the Magical Treasures on me were most likely seized by him.”
“He probably hid them in his cave.”
Oh?
Jiang Fan rubbed his chin in thought.
The Six-Path Masters was late-stage Nascent Soul back in the day.
The treasures on him shouldn’t be inferior to Green Crane Masters’ horsetail whisk, right?
“What is it?” Jiang Fan asked.
The Six-Path Masters revealed a proud look, “A mid-grade Spiritual Artifact, the Sky Observation Treasure!”
“It can observe vast lands and detect enemy traces from afar.”
“And reflect enemy attacks up close.”
“Holding this, you’re invincible.”
As he spoke.
The Six-Path Masters suddenly twitched his mouth:
“Kid, why are your eyes so bright?”
Jiang Fan blinked, coughed lightly:
“Recently, I’ve been inflamed, my eyes are brighter than usual.”
“Alright, I accept this matter.”
“Given our relationship, it’s only right to help you find the lost treasures.”
Seeing Jiang Fan speak full of sentiment.
The Six-Path Masters suddenly felt a little regretful, muttering:
“Why do I feel like the Sky Observation Treasure is saying farewell to me?”
Shaking his head, he said, “When you find this treasure, come find me in Taicang State.”
“By then, return the treasure to me, and I’ll give you Green Crane Masters’ resources.”
Jiang Fan nodded, “Alright!”
The Six-Path Masters also nodded slightly, saying, “I’ll take my leave first.”
“Be careful yourself.”
“From my understanding of Jiangshan First-class Building, they never do losing businesses.”
“Yan Dao’an lost so many subordinates, he will surely find compensation elsewhere.”
“Don’t let him see the things on you.”
After saying that, he wanted to leave into the air.
Jiang Fan chuckled, “Leaving without first handing over my hairpin?”
This old guy.
Thought I forgot, huh?
Secretly wanted to sneak away with his stuff?
The Six-Path Masters’ mouth twitched, taking out the broken hairpin from the sleeve he secretly hid it in.
Annoyed, “Can’t we part with a little gift?”
Jiang Fan walked over and snatched it back.
“I traded my life for it; can I give it to you?”
He then stuffed a jade bottle into his hand.
“This is what you need most now.”
Originally, the Six-Path Masters was puffing his beard and glaring, but upon seeing the bottle full of Revitalizing Pills.
He beamed with joy once more.
Having followed Jiang Fan for so long, he naturally knew the miraculous nature of this item.
It was akin to a life-saving talisman.
“Still, you’re a bit sentimental, kid.”
“Alright, I’ll tell you about the origin and usage of the hairpin.”
“So such a good treasure isn’t mistaken as scrap metal by you.”
