Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The School of White Lotus was located within the southern countries of the Azure Dragon Domain, occupying more than thirty nations of various sizes. Differing from other sage orthodoxies, territories under the School of White Lotus were often heavily influenced by religious elements.

Most of the inhabitants in the southern countries were devoted followers of the School of White Lotus, and it all began from a horrible turmoil that happened twenty thousand years ago.

Legend had it that twenty thousand years ago, a demon had ascended from h.e.l.l and caused widespread terrors in the southern countries. Countless lives were lost and many others lost their homes.

It was a dark era that caused much blood and tears. Until this day, the event was still recorded in the history books of these southern countries.

Then, out of nowhere, a Sage Ruler appeared and immediately sealed the demon under the Earth, saving countless lives from demise.

The Sage Ruler was none other than the founder of the School of White Lotus, the White Lotus Sage Ruler!

Although it had been centuries since the pa.s.sing of the White Lotus Sage Ruler, his tales still resonated amongst the people in the southern countries. Many still wors.h.i.+pped him as a deity and held him close to their spiritual hearts.

The School of White Lotus was also delighted at such an occurrence, so they did not hesitate to use it to leverage their influence.

Full Moon Kingdom, the largest of all southern countries.

It was where the headquarters of the School of White Lotus was at.

Chu Kuangren was strolling along the streets of Full Moon Kingdom where the majority of the kingdom's residents dressed in all white. Very few dressed in other manners.

Rumors had it that the White Lotus Sage Ruler was fond of the color white and loved to dress in that color. Since religion was the core of Full Moon Kingdom, it was no surprise that their residents had chosen to preserve this tradition.

"Lan Yu, do you think it's unpleasant for me to visit this place empty-handed?" Chu Kuangren stroked his chin and asked.

It had been two days since the duo arrived. Chu Kuangren was taking his sweet time immersing himself in the local kingdom's cultures instead of making his visit to the School of White Lotus his priority.

However, now that he had enough fun, it was time for business.

"Why don't we buy some fruits?" Chu Kuangren stopped at a fruit stall and nonchalantly bought its entire stocks.

"Thank you, Master! Thank you!"

The shopkeeper expressed his grat.i.tude when he received his soulstones.

"I still don't think it's enough," Chu Kuangren murmured.

The other shopkeepers who had been staring in envy immediately rushed forward and recommended their own fruits enthusiastically.

"Master, these apples are not only huge and juicy, but their vibrant colors make them suitable props for joyous occasions. I also have grapes, pears, and…"

"Master, my banana trees are watered using spiritual marrows. Look at them, do you think a typical banana would be this firm and straight?"

"Look over here, Master…"

Circled by a group of shopkeepers, Chu Kuangren let out a faint smile. Then, like a rich tyc.o.o.n, he took out a large pile of soulstones and bought every single fruit from them.

The Daoist Protectors, who were keeping watch from the shadows, were stunned at the sight.

Was he bringing fruits to visit a sage orthodoxy?

It was their first time witnessing such a gesture.

The headquarters of the School of White Lotus.

Inside a Grand PaG.o.da, a few elders were inspecting offerings that had been sent from all over the world.

At that moment,

"Who?" An elder was surprised.

"Chu Kuangren."

In the School of White Lotus, many disciples had congregated together.

They were staring curiously at Chu Kuangren, who had just arrived at the gate during that time. Some of the female disciples could not even move their eyes away from him.

Some were even at the point of salivating.

"He's Chu Kuangren, the most popular supreme sky-pride in the entire Firmament Star. I heard that even the Young Emperor couldn't be his match."

"He's too handsome."

"Princess Linglong is so lucky she could marry a person of his level. If it was me, I would probably wake up every morning with a smile on my face."

"Indeed."

"Look, he's staring this way. So handsome…"

Chu Kuangren was standing near the gate, waiting for someone to welcome him in.

Soon, an elder with a white beard and white hair came forward. Chu Kuangren recognized the person as he was one of the Honorables who was present at the Secret Realm.

"Buddy Chu, you've come to visit. It must be quite a distance for you." The elder smiled as he approached Chu Kuangren. However, deep down, he was secretly cursing at his guest. 'Why is this little b*stard suddenly at the School of White Lotus? What's his plan now?'

"Greetings, sir. I've come to accept your invitation to pay the School of White Lotus a visit. At the same time, perhaps we can even spar and learn from each other."

Chu Kuangren greeted the elder with a lighthearted smile.

"Accept my invitation?"

The elder was confused. Since when did he extend an invitation to Chu Kuangren?

"Exactly. You said at the Secret Realm that you would welcome me to visit the School of White Lotus at any time. Do you still remember?"

"Of Course, of course."

The elder could finally recall.

When Chu Kuangren killed the Black Light Sage in the Secret Realm, thus saving the various sage orthodoxies, the Honorables had thanked him excessively.

Many had indicated that their doors would always be opened for Chu Kuangren to visit.

However, those are merely polite words and nothing more.

No one had actually thought that Chu Kuangren would visit within a few days' time.

What else could the elder do?

He could only welcome him now. After all, if word spread that he had closed his doors to Chu Kuangren, the entire of the Royal Azure Dynasty and the Black Heaven Sect would be after him.

"Buddy Chu, please come in."

The elder welcomed Chu Kuangren into the School of White Lotus.

"Oh, I've bought some gifts on the way here," Chu Kuangren said. Then, he took out several crates of fruits from his Yin and Yang ring. One after another, they appeared before the eyes of the crowds.

The elder simpered for a moment.

Chu Kuangren had actually bought crates of fruits as gifts for his visit to a sage orthodoxy.

It was a courtesy that was completely unheard of in a cultivator's world.

"Chu Kuangren, you're too generous."

The elder then ordered a few disciples to bring the fruits in.

"Chu Kuangren!" At that moment, a scream could be heard from far. At first glance, it was from a youngster whose face had changed drastically upon the sight of Chu Kuangren.

Chu Kuangren looked over and recognized him as the White Lotus Bachelor Sage whose arm he chopped off. He smiled and said, "Hey, it's you, I hope you're doing well. Congratulations, I see that your arm has been rejoined to your body now."

In this world, there was always the possibility of rejoining a broken limb and even bringing someone back from the dead. With the resources that the School of White Lotus had, rejoining the White Lotus Bachelor Sage's arm was not a difficult task. All it needed was a little time for him to readjust.

The White Lotus Bachelor Sage's face went pale upon hearing Chu Kuangren's remarks. He subconsciously felt a tingling pain on the spot where his arm was reconnected as Chu Kuangren's slash had left a traumatic impression on him.

"What a surprising moment to hear that you're paying us a visit, Brother Chu."

The White Lotus Maiden Sage had made an appearance too.

"Greetings, Maiden Sage."

"I've heard that you and Princess Linglong are getting wedded. In times like these, how do you have time to pay the School of White Lotus a visit instead of staying in the palace?"

"Well, all good men have ambitions. How could I confine myself to that comfortable sanctuary all the time?" Chu Kuangren answered nonchalantly.

"Brother Chu, you always do have great ambitions. Since you're here, how about we spar with each other?"

"I have the same intention too." Chu Kuangren nodded.

The reason for his visit was to experience the School of White Lotus's cultivation techniques. Since the White Lotus Maiden Sage was the most impressive sky-pride amongst the youngest disciple, she was the perfect partner for Chu Kuangren to spar with.

Soon, news of Chu Kuangren sparring with the White Lotus Maiden Sage spread throughout the School of White Lotus, shocking many disciples.

Under a pavilion within the School of White Lotus.

Chu Kuangren and the White Lotus Maiden Sage sat facing each other with their knees folded.

"Maiden Sage, my honor."

"Then I shall make the first move."

Then, potent surges of Daoist Rhymes came gus.h.i.+ng out of the White Lotus Maiden Sage's body as it charged towards Chu Kuangren.

It was the purest channeling of Daoist Rhymes, with not a single pinch of spiritual powers mixed within. While tactical, these Daoist Rhymes did not pack the power to inflict fatal injuries.
