Chapter 1604: Patriarch Zhu Yin

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were initially astonished before turning toward the mushroom flower with scorching lights in their eyes.

This was a flower that could progress to the Dao Integration Stage! Who wouldn’t be tempted to take it?

Xu Xiaolan swallowed while An Lin forgot to do so. As a result, drool was flowing down the corner of his lips.

The mushroom flower couldn’t stand to see An Lin’s shameless expression, and one of its flower petals opened up again as it spat out another globule of nectar onto An Lin’s face.

An Lin wiped the nectar from his face before licking his fingers. “So sweet!”

Tina: “…”

Xu Xiaolan: “… An Lin, please have some dignity…”

As An Lin’s future dao partner, Xu Xiaolan couldn’t just stand by and watch anymore.

However, An Lin was not embarrassed in the slightest as he continued to stare at the flower with keen eyes. “Little Na, what are you going to do with this flower? How about you give it to me for safekeeping. When you grow up, I’ll—”

Before he had a chance to finish, unfamiliar footsteps suddenly sounded from behind him.

“Um, forgive me for being blunt, but what you’re doing is robbery,” a male voice sounded.

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were both given a fright. Who could be capable of getting so close to them without them noticing?

An Lin immediately turned around to look at the man making his way toward them with a cautious expression.

This was a man who appeared to be about twenty years of age in a lilac robe and soft features. He wasn’t all that handsome. In fact, he gave one an impression of frailty.

A human?

There were humans like them in the Opposite Shore Realm?

An Lin’s expression shifted, but he didn’t let down his guard as he retorted in a justified voice, “How could this be called robbery? I’m Little Na’s Master, so what’s wrong with me taking some things from her for safekeeping?”

The man faltered slightly before chuckling with amusement. “This is my garden.”

He pointed at the red ball in Tina’s hand. “I planted that.”

“Er…” An Lin was dumbstruck and momentarily at a loss for words.

He had thought that this was just a random passerby, trying to be a justice warrior and accusing them of robbery, but he didn’t expect this man to be the master of this flower. In that case, they really did appear to be robbers…

“Ehehe…” Tina dropped the flower onto the ground and feigned an innocent, naive smile.

Xu Xiaolan slapped her hand to her forehead and heaved a resigned sigh. “I knew it… How could a treasure like this just be sitting in the middle of nowhere? Turns out it was intentionally planted here…”

After a brief moment of stunned silence, An Lin immediately apologized, “My sincerest apologies, fellow cultivator.”

An Lin was completely unable to identify this man’s cultivation base, so he was definitely some unfathomable mighty figure. What terrible luck to encounter such a powerful mighty figure here? Hopefully, this was a mighty figure with a mild temper.

At this moment, the flower had regrown its petals, stem, and leaves to flourish once again.

It seemed to have found a backer, and it straightened its stem before spitting out another globule of sweet, fragrant nectar onto An Lin’s face…

An Lin didn’t dare to act in his usual uncouth manner, and he wiped the nectar off his face before putting it away into his storage ring. The nectar of the Underworld Dao Flower was at least a high-rank spirit treasure, so it was probably quite valuable…

The purple-robed man did not appear to be angry in the slightest. Instead, a smile appeared on his face after Tina released the Underworld Dao Flower, and he appraised Tina with keen interest.

“You’re very interesting. You’re not at the God of Creation Stage, but you can sense the aura of the Underworld Dao Flower, and you can release a God of Creation Stage aura…”

Tina was instantly displeased upon hearing this, and she raised her chin and placed her hands on her hips. “What? Are you trying to accuse me of being a fake God of Creation?”

The man instantly waved his hands. “No no no… that was not my intention. I just wanted to say that there are very few beings whom I can’t see through in this world, and you’re one of them.”

“Oh…” Tina nodded. I don’t give a crap if you can’t see through me!

Even though this man appeared to be quite amicable, An Lin still felt like it would be best to get out of here as soon as possible. “Senior, we have some things to take care of, so we’ll be on our way now.”

The purple-robed man didn’t say anything. Instead, he bent over and picked a colorful flower from the ground and sniffed at it before turning to An Lin and speaking in a graceful and refined manner, “I’ve heard of you as well. An Lin, you are the most popular man on the Tai Chu Continent recently, and you are also one of the few beings I cannot see through.”

“Oh…” An Lin nodded with a smile. I don’t give a sh*t if you can’t see through me!

He shot a furtive glance at Xiaolan and Tina, indicating for them to prepare to leave. If they stayed here any longer, the purple-robed man might go down some other strange tangent.

It was best to keep out of trouble here, so An Lin decided that leaving now would be a good idea.

“Wait!” The purple-robed man seemed to have seen through An Lin’s plans, and he held up a hand to keep him. “I believe all encounters are decided by fate, so we were fated to meet here. As such, I could give the Underworld Dao Flower to you if you’re interested. In return, I’ll have to ask you to resolve an issue for me,” the purple-robed man offered with a smile.

An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and Tina’s footsteps faltered as their eyes lit up at the same time.

The same pitiable expression appeared on all ninety-nine petals of the Underworld Dao Flower at the same time, as if it was very saddened and hurt by the purple-robed man’s decision.

“Senior, I have to say, you’ve come to the right person.” An Lin smiled with a confident expression. “In this world, there is nothing I can’t do. Even if that thing is impossible to do, I’ll make it possible!”

Tina also patted her chest. “Goddess Tina is not someone to be trifled with either!”

In contrast with their enthusiasm, Xu Xiaolan was a little cautious. “Why would you choose us? We won’t do it if it’s something too dangerous.”

“No no, it’s not dangerous at all.” The man waved his hands again. “I chose you because I can’t see through you. Perhaps you’ll be able to create a different result and help me escape this bind… If you can do it, the Underworld Dao Flower is yours.”

“Go ahead and tell us what you would like us to do, Senior,” An Lin said with glowing eyes.

The purple-robed man heaved a faint sigh and looked up into the sky. “My name is Ding Xiaoru. This name might be a little unfamiliar to all of you, but you should know who I am if I tell you that I’m Patriarch Zhu Yin of the Ghost Tribe, right?”

Everyone’s expression shifted, and their hearts surged with shock upon hearing this.

Patriarch Zhu Yin was the paramount god of the Opposite Shore Realm Ghost Tribe!

According to legend, in the Land of Extreme Darkness, there was a creature with a human face and a dragon’s body that was over ten thousand kilometers in length, stretching like a winding set of mountain ranges. Each and every one of its simplest movements could control heaven and earth. When it opened its eyes, it was daytime, when it closed its eyes, night fell. When it blew a gust of air, winter struck, when it exhaled, summer rolled around…

It was also said that this creature controlled the true meaning of life and death, and it could command all Ghost Tribe cultivators, regardless of their statuses or cultivation bases.

To put it more simply, this creature was the most regal and powerful god of the Ghost Tribe, and this man was claiming to be that god!

An Lin took a deep breath to calm himself down. Never would he have thought that this frail and delicate man standing before him would be such a terrifying creature.

“Senior Zhu Yin, what would you like us to help you with?” An Lin asked.

“Please call me Ding Xiaoru,” the purple-robed man corrected before a disconsolate expression appeared on his face. “I’ve been dumped…”

An Lin was rooted to the spot by this response.

Patriarch Zhu Yin continued, “Because I was dumped, my cultivation base also fell.”

Xu Xiaolan: “???”

An Lin: “…”
