His eyes reflected only the plain stone blade and nothing else. [A Dao Rhythm item.] Mei Niang and Bai Yue gave him curious looks. “Senior, this child…” The bald kid glared at them. “I am Wu Ming, not a child.” “Wu Ming?” Bai Yue muttered, finding the name oddly familiar. “Mei Niang mused, “I heard the Sumeru Immortal Domain’s lord from thirty thousand years ago had the same name.” She didn’t think for a second that he and the kid had any relation. The bald child looked smug, his hands in prayer. “Humph, so you’ve heard of this humble monk. Yes, I am the Sumeru Immortal Domain Lord from thirty thousand years ago.” “Ah…” Mei Niang and Bai Yue gasped. That rumored Domain Lord was now in front of them as a brat? [Didn’t they say he died in meditation?] Wu Ming sneered, “I am not lying, so stop being shocked. I don’t die that easily, for I am indeed a Domain Lord.” Wu Ming didn’t feel like sharing his circumstances. The two nobodies paled to the importance of a Dao Rhythm item. He was excited. “Lord, are you a Dao Saint?” Chen Changan figured out from their talks that Wu Ming was the real deal—a Domain Lord. He did not confirm Wu Ming’s guess, only saying, “You will just have to see for yourself, Domain Lord.” He threw the stone blade towards Wu Ming. As a Domain Lord, Wu Ming should have plenty of knowledge to ascertain if the stone blade carved with Sacred Rhythm Integration truly was the real deal. Wu Ming gaped at the item in his hands. “What a majestic Dao Rhythm! It’s a top Dao Rhythm item!” If only he trained in blade path. Absorbing the Dao Rhythm from the item would’ve allowed even the old him to grow stronger! It was a shame Chen Changan was not a Buddhist Dao Saint. “Wu Ming, how is it?” Wu Ming was grave: “Lord’s insights into the blade path have reached perfection. The stone blade has a majestic and pure Dao Rhythm. Even on Sumeru Immortal Domain, I’ve never seen one like this. It is priceless! Any Domain Lord walking the blade path would be sure to fight for it.” “Oh, really?” Chen Changan’s flat response contrasted with the shock within. [So the items coming from Sacred Rhythm Integration are useful to a Domain Lord as well.] It was a quality item he made with Sacred Rhythm Integration, of course. Recently, he’d taken a liking to carving. He’d always make something out of wood or stone whenever he was idle. The stone blade happened to be his best work so far. Bai Yue and Mei Niang flinched at their discussion. [The bald kid is Sumeru Immortal Domain’s Domain Lord for real? Senior is incredible!] They clearly heard him calling Chen Changan Lord. They thought the kid was a new disciple, or his child at best. As for the stone blade being useful to a Domain Lord as well, that left them dumbstruck. [No way!] Wu Ming fondled the item like it was his lover. He extended an arm, and Vajra Demon Pestle appeared. Mei Niang gasped, “Isn’t that Sumeru Immortal Domain’s Thunder Immortal Shrine’s Buddhist item, Vajra Demon Pestle? Why does the bald kid have it?” Bai Yue jerked. [Is this the one Senior fought in the Myriad Mountains? But he’s only at the Empty Immortal Stage.] Wu Ming glared at Mei Niang. “Benefactor, stop calling me a bald kid. I’m a Domain Lord!” For those nobodies to call him like that left him sour. A dreadful immortal’s pressure came from Wu Ming, and a golden Buddha image the size of a mountain shone behind. Mei Niang felt death was near. The bald kid was just an Empty Immortal, far weaker than her. [So why am I scared of him?] Chen Changan squinted and placed his hand on Wu Ming’s head. “Have you found life boring, Wu Ming? Is this how you treat my honored guests?” Wu Ming shrunk and sweated under the killing intent. The woman was weak but made up for it with looks. [Huh, mesmerizing eyes, charming face, looks that could kill; of course Lord gets hooked.] Wu Ming slumped and gave him a silly smile. Coupled with his young form, he had the innocent child look down pat. “Lord, I’d never, ever, ever.” He held his hand in prayer and bowed, “A Mi Tuo Fo. Benefactors, I was too rash. I ask for your forgiveness.” Mei Niang: “…” Bai Yue: “…” Mei Niang was certain the dreadful immortal’s pressure was beyond what the current her could take. She felt lower than a bug. The bald kid wasn’t just a Domain Lord, but a Celestial Immortal as well, in the realm of Immortal Sovereign! And he’s happy to call Chen Changan Lord? [Senior is unfathomable!] “Wu Ming, why take out the Vajra Demon Pestle then? What are you up to?” Chen Changan asked. Wu Ming shook his head with a determined face. “Lord, as I’ve yet to become immortal, I plan on recultivating my immortal path.” “Oh?” “As Lord is a blade path Dao Saint, I shall follow Lord on the same path. He-he, riding the coattails to success. I’m certain this way I’ll reach beyond my previous life’s level!” Wu Ming’s serious face was eager, even as he offered the Vajra Demon Pestle. “I ask that Lord mold the Buddhist path item into a blade. He-he-he, a Dao Rhythm immortal equipment would be perfect.” Chen Changan rubbed his chin. [A monk using sabers?]
