In the morning, sunlight lit up the sky, and a new day began.
People walked back and forth on the street, occasionally stopping to chat. It was a calm and bustling scene, just like any other day.
Just coming out of the familiar clinic, Jade faced Flying Dragon felt like he was in a different world when he saw this scene again.
Yesterday morning, they received a summons from Wuji Association’s Star Xuan Envoy to participate in the hunt for Saintess Wu Qingxin.
One day and one night passed.
Out of the eleven people who participated in the hunt, only Jade faced Flying Dragon and a 5th rank martial artist survived.
What they saw and heard during this day and night was beyond their understanding of the martial arts world.
In the first half of the night, Wu Qingxin was very dangerous. With the Etching Bone Li Fire Talisman in her hand, she almost burned everyone to ashes. They were nearly destroyed.
The martial artist of the 5th rank thought for a moment and then said,
“So, I will also try to spread the news of the Martial Saint through official channels. After all, I am just a minor official in Heyang City as a 5th rank martial artist…”
“Maybe in a few years, we will be defeated by the Martial Saint, but until then, I will not let the Martial Saint have an easy time.”
They quickly said goodbye and went their separate ways.
After Jade faced Flying Dragon left, he immediately went to a familiar teahouse in the west of the city. He spoke a secret code to the owner and requested a private room.
Not long after, a storyteller dressed in a green robe with a sword entered.
“Is this the famous Jade Faced Flying Dragon in Heyang City? I’ve heard that he is a skilled fighter of the 4th rank,” Jiang Chen entered the room with a smile on his face.
He reluctantly joined the Tide Listening Building.
But thanks to joining the Tide Listening Building, he had the opportunity to encounter a skilled fighter of the 4th rank, which he would not have had access to based on his own strength and status.
Tide Listening Building is famous for its strong intelligence abilities, and this is thanks to the informants spread throughout Jiu Province… Many of the strange events and stories are actually provided by wandering adventurers like Jade-faced Flying Dragon.
“Is it a ‘true story’ or a ‘strange tale’?” Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
If it’s a true story, Tide Listening Building would ask the informants for more information to confirm its authenticity.
If it’s a strange tale, it’s not necessary. The truth doesn’t matter, as long as it’s entertaining and grabs people’s attention.
“It’s a true story,” Jade-faced Flying Dragon sighed.
“But this true story is probably even more extraordinary than any strange tale.”
“You mustn’t be afraid when you hear what I’m about to say…”
“The notorious Martial Saint has appeared once again, and he’s actually a man-eating demon… He even killed the strongest martial artists from the previous generation’s Hero List top ten…”
“True story? Are you serious? Are you being silly or am I being silly?”
“Mr. Clairaudience” looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
“Mr. Clairaudience” is the code name of a member of the Tide Listening Building, just like the famous “All-known Man” in the past.
And he, Mr. Clairaudience, was actually the storyteller who pretended to be a fake catcher and forcibly brought Jiang Chen into the Tide Listening Building yesterday.
“Although I, Mr. Clairaudience, belong to the ‘unusual news’ faction in the Tide Listening Building, I prefer to talk about the top ten scandalous stories in the martial world… But this Martial Saint matter, it’s tens or hundreds of times more sensational than those scandalous stories!”
He suddenly became enthusiastic.
In his actions, he didn’t really care about what was true or false, he valued the element of “oddness.”
But this Martial Saint matter indeed seemed absurd to him.
“I’ve decided on this matter, I will go to the teahouse later,” Mr. Clairaudience said slowly.
