Chapter 714: Chapter 717 - 723: The Person Favored by Heaven! This strong?

“Looking for that little monk?”

Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, the sly cat was taken aback and gloated, “Kid, don’t blame me for not warning you. That little monk may look young, but he’s actually more than a decade older than you. And his cultivation level is higher than yours.”

Yang Zhen said nonchalantly, “Well, monks and demon practitioners from the Western Region are usually of a higher level than those from other places. It’s not a big deal; you just need to come with me.”

The sly cat exclaimed, “You knew that?”

Yang Zhen looked smug, “What else do you think, Sao Saint spends his time in the teahouse doing nothing but serving tea?”

“Weren’t you contemplating about life?” the sly cat asked, puzzled.

Yang Zhen scoffed, “That’s secondary. Let me teach you something. Where’s the best place to get information?”

“Of course, the Thousand Seeker Sect. They… wait, why the hell did I think of the Thousand Seeker Sect?”

“What’s the Thousand Seeker Sect?”@@novelbin@@

Now it was Yang Zhen’s turn to be puzzled. He hadn’t expected the existence of such an organization in the cultivation world. Judging from its name, it seemed like an organization similar to those that knew everything about the world.

The sly cat shook his head, “Forget it, pretend I didn’t mention it. The Thousand Seeker Sect is exactly as you envisioned, a sect that knows everything. If you want to inquire about something, you just need to pay a certain price, and they could find out almost anything.”

“There’s such an organization?” Yang Zhen was surprised and asked incredulously.

“It’s ancient history. No one even knows if the Thousand Seeker Sect has any descendants now. Forget that, where did you say was the best place to dig up information?”

Yang Zhen put aside his doubts and pointed around him, “Of course, it’s here. If you want to inquire about something, coming to a place like this is the best choice. You can almost hear anything you want. Now, let’s not delay any longer; something big is about to happen on the Northern Island.”

“Something big?” The sly cat, always eager for a bit of disorder, enjoyed such words. He asked excitedly, “Are we going to stir things up?”

As they walked, Yang Zhen solemnly warned the sly cat, “This time, we’re just here to watch, not stir things up. Remember, we’re not stirring things up.”

“I don’t believe you!” The sly cat sneered, then asked excitedly, “What’s going to happen? You make it sound so exciting. Remember, I’m not interested in minor affairs!”

Yang Zhen side-eyed the sly cat and asked, “Have you heard of the Third Saintess of Jade Pool from the Western Region?”

“What? What did you say?” The sly cat jumped up three feet high, looking at Yang Zhen in disbelief, “Did you just say Jade Pool? Third Saintess?”

Yang Zhen hadn’t expected the sly cat to react so dramatically. The information he had heard was fragmented. He knew about the Third Saintess and the Jade Pool of the Western Region, and he also knew that no power dared to provoke this existence in the entire Northern Island and even the entire Western Region. However, he had no clue about the actual influence of the so-called Third Saintess of Jade Pool.

Now seeing the sly cat’s reaction, Yang Zhen became curious and asked, “Have you heard of the Third Saintess of Jade Pool from the Western Region?”

“Damn, of course I’ve heard of her. What are you getting involved with her for?” The sly cat asked with a trace of fear, as if it had suffered a loss at the hands of the Third Saintess of Jade Pool.

Under Yang Zhen’s continuous questioning, the sly cat finally told the truth. It didn’t know why, but as soon as it heard the words “Third Saintess of Jade Pool from the Western Region,” an intense idea of not provoking her emerged, stronger than anything it had ever felt before.

Yang Zhen laughed out loud, looking at the green-faced Dirt Cat and said disdainfully, “Couldn’t find it, huh? I didn’t expect that there are even beings that could make you, Dirt Cat, fearful.”

Dirt Cat was immediately enraged when he heard this. He glared at Yang Zhen and said, “Fearful? Are you kidding me? There’s no one in this world I fear. I just don’t want to deal with that crazy Third Saintess from the Jade Pool. No, wait. The current Jade Pool’s Third Saintess is not the same as the one before. But no matter who, any woman that came out of that damned Jade Pool is weirder than the last. Why are you bringing them up? Could the scene here in Northern Island have something to do with that woman?”

Yang Zhen nodded and said, “Yes, it does. It has a lot to do with it. The Third Saintess of Jade Pool has issued invitations far and wide, looking for some new talented individuals blessed by destiny. Although I don’t know what the purpose is, it has stirred up quite a fuss here in Northern Island. If my guess as the Sao Saint is correct, that young monk should be Yunla, and he is here on behalf of the Jade Pool.”

“A monk representing the Jade Pool?” Dirt Cat’s eyeballs almost popped out. He muttered to himself in confusion, “This world has gone mad! Even a sacred place like the Jade Pool is getting involved in worldly affairs.”

Yang Zhen chuckled and said, “Who cares if it’s a sacred place or not? If you are born into this world, you will inevitably have to deal with worldly matters. Can you elevate yourself above the world simply by saying so?”

Dirt Cat let out a strange laugh and, looking at Yang Zhen mockingly, said, “You can actually say something so enlightened. But do you know what would happen if the people of the Jade Pool heard you say this?”

Yang Zhen didn’t care and sneered, “What could possibly happen?”

Dirt Cat was amazed and said in a serious tone, “Kid, if you offend the people of the Five Tribes of Northern Island, you might still be able to find a job as a waiter in a tea house somewhere. But if you upset the people from the Jade Pool, there will be no peace for you in the entire world of Practitioners.”

“Holy shit, is it that serious?” Yang Zhen was genuinely frightened.

Dirt Cat seemed about to say something, but then suddenly asked, “We’ve been talking for quite a while. You still haven’t told me what you’re going to do in Jade Pool?”

Considering that the Third Saintess of Jade Pool was looking for a few individuals blessed by destiny, and Yang Zhen was obviously not heading there for this honor, he must have taken an interest in Jade Pool.

Dirt Cat looked at Yang Zhen with a puzzled expression, curiosity flashing across his uncertain face.

Yang Zhen sighed and said, “Damn it, do you really think this Sao Saint doesn’t know that you can’t just stroll in and out of a place like the Jade Pool? I just happened to find out that the so-called Seven Yin Seven Yang Land is in the Jade Pool and to resurrect Sao Chicken, I have to get inside the Jade Pool. What do you say? Shouldn’t I take advantage of this opportunity, or do I have to break in by force?”

Dirt Cat was taken aback and admonished, “Kid, don’t do anything rash. Jade Pool is not like the so-called ancient tribes of Northern Island. All the traditions of these tribes put together couldn’t hold a candle to a fraction of Jade Pool’s glory. You had better weigh their strength.”

“That’s why I said, to resurrect Sao Chicken, I must enter the Jade Pool. To enter the Jade Pool, I must become one of those damn ‘Individuals blessed by Destiny.’ And to become one of those individuals, I must meet Yunla. I’ve laid it out for you, do you understand now?”

Dirt Cat nodded, climbed onto Yang Zhen’s shoulder, patted his shoulder, and said profoundly, “Kid, you have to work hard!”

Yang Zhen shot Dirt Cat a look and said, “If the Sao Saint within me isn’t considered an Individual Blessed by Destiny already, why don’t you find me someone who is?”

Dirt Cat glanced at Yang Zhen and said, “Kid, ‘Individuals blessed by Destiny’ are not easy to come by. That Yunla boy is one. You… Well, you’re about halfway there.”

Yang Zhen was stunned, and asked in astonishment, “Only half a Saint? Damn, what makes these ‘Blessed Individuals’ so damn awesome? By the way, does the young girl count?”

Dirt Cat shook his head and said, “Whether it’s the young girl or the clueless practitioner, neither of them are Blessed Individuals. They only have a karmic relationship with you. Their destinies have already been altered. Who among us can truly discern the full extent of a life’s destiny?”

Yang Zhen was taken aback, truly surprised inside. He looked at Dirt Cat with a peculiar expression, but his mind was filled with the image of Yunla, who smiled like an enlightened monk.

Just how awesome are these so-called “Blessed Individuals,” really?
