Battling Records of the Chosen One

Chapter 149: Crisis

Spiritual crystals contained huge and pure spiritual power. So they, as a kind of important strategic materials in the empire, were valuable.

A palm-sized ordinary spiritual crystal was worth ten imperial silver coins!

The spiritual crystal taken out by Old Mo was different from the ordinary ones. It was called “High-class Spiritual Crystal”. It was diamond-shaped and transparent, with light blue brilliance. It was usually used as the spiritual force source of warships.

The value of a high-class spiritual crystal was up to five imperial gold coins even.

In other words, one high-class spiritual crystal was 50 times more valuable than an ordinary one.

At this moment, such an expensive spiritual crystal was swallowed by Chirps in a blink of an eye. No wonder that Old Mo howled and freaked out.

Old Mo rushed up, trying to get the crystal back, but Chirps quickly avoided Old Mo and fled into the arms of Lin Xun.

Under Lin Xun’s protection, Crips looked at Old Mo innocently.

Old Mo was so angry that he shouted, “Lin Xun, let this little thing spit out the spiritual crystal. It is very precious and can’t be spoiled by this little thing!”

Lin Xun shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, “Chirps can erupt fire with month. Would you like to try to let it spit the crystal out by yourself?”

Old Mo was stunned and looked at the hole on the ground beside him. He shook his head immediately. It was too dangerous and not funny at all.

“Well, Old Mo, you present the crystal to it. Are you going to regret it?” Young Ke frowned.

“No, I mean… Alas…” Old Mo showed a look of deep regret and faltered.

Lin Xun felt sympathy for Old Mo at this moment. However, Chirps belched like it had eaten its fill. Its soft and round body lay lazily in Lin’s arms, squinting comfortably and gradually falling asleep. A glittering bubble was blown out from the corner of its mouth.

“It seems that there is no way to get the crystal back now,” Lin Xun said helplessly.

Old Mo was totally dumbfounded by Chirps’s good appetite. A high-class spiritual crystal was digested in a blink of an eye?

“It seems that the food it needs is spiritual crystal,” Young Ke thought.

Lin was in a trance for a while. A bad feeling surged in his heart. If this little thing fed on spiritual crystals, he would not be able to support it even if he sold out.

“Drillmaster Young Ke, would you like to raise Chirps?” Lin Xun asked tentatively.

Young Ke frowned and said, “Chirps likes you so much. It’s obvious that Chirps has treated you as its relative. How can you abandon it so cruelly?”

Lin Xun smiled bitterly.

Seeing this, depressed and crazy Old Mo finally felt better, took pleasure in Lin Xun’s misfortune, and said, “I’ll wait to see how many crystals you have to feed it.”

It gave Lin Xun a headache.

Young Ke said, “Well, I’ll find time to check Chirps later. If I find you and Old Mo can’t take care of it well…”

Her eyes became so sharp that Lin Xun and Old Mo felt a kind of oppressive force. Their faces changed slightly together.

“You know the result,” Young Ke turned away after saying this.

Lin Xun and Old Mo looked at each other and felt pity for each other.

In the next few days, Lin Xun’s life was a little different from the past due to Chirps’s company.

This little fellow was simple and regarded Lin Xun as its relative. Every day, as long as Lin Xun returned to Old Mo’s warehouse after training, it stuck to Lin Xun and rubbed happily in Lin Xun’s arms.

Lin Xun was a little unadapted at first but he got used to it soon. What really troubled him was that he had been sure that Chirps really fed on spiritual crystals!

Every three days, it consumed a high-class spiritual crystal. Chirps’s speed of spending money could almost catch up with Lin Xun.

Fortunately, at least in the Bloodthirsty Camp, Lin Xun did not have to worry too much about it with Young Ke’s help.

The only strange thing for Lin Xun was that Young Man disappeared after the quarterly assessment. Old Mo did not know where she had gone, either.

As time went by, there were only five days left before the trainees went to Demon-cloud Ridge to participate in the “battlefield assessment”.

On this day, when Lin Xun finished his training and returned to Old Mo’s warehouse, he heard a familiar and charming laughter echoing in the air.

Lin Xun was happy to realize that Young Man was back!

Sure enough, when Lin Xun walked into the warehouse, he saw Young Man laughing, holding Chirps, and constantly rubbing its soft and round body. She was all smiles and playing with Chirps as if she had found the best toy in the world.

“Welcome back, sister, ” Lin Xun walked to her with a smile.

Young Man nodded without looking at Lin Xun, still teasing Chirps.

Lin Xun was speechless at once. Why did Drillmaster Young Ke and Young Man react the same way? What on earth was good about Chirps? Why they liked it so much?

“Are you jealous of it?” Old Mo came up with a hint of envy on his face, and his eyes were fixed on Young Man’s plump chest which Chirps buried in. He looked jealous of Chirps, wanting to replace it with himself.

“Old Mo, why do you think I’ll be jealous of a little beast?” Lin sounded sulky.

At this time, Chirps noticed Lin Xun. It quickly broke loose from Young Man’s embrace and slammed into Lin Xun’s arms, chirping happily and ceaselessly.

Lin Xun laughed immediately and said to Old Mo, “Look at this little thing. It is better than you! At least it is not as concupiscent as you are!”

“In my view, this little thing is a hundred times better than you two,” Young Man sighed with emotion in her starry eyes.

Bang!

Suddenly, the door of the warehouse was pushed open by a blast of strong force, and a gust of cold wind poured in, which made the atmosphere in the warehouse chilly.

“Shu Sanqi, I didn’t come to fight with you this time. I just come for taking two people away. Why do you stand in the way?”

A low and deep voice arose. It was full of unspeakable magic, as if it could reach the depths of the soul and make people chill.

Accompanied by the words, a slender figure strode in Old Mo’s warehouse. This was a graceful middle-aged man with a high crown and big sleeves of ancient clothes.

He was handsome with cold and daunting eyes. Upon his arrival, there was a deafening silence in the warehouse suddenly, and even the wind subsided as if it also feared.

Next to the man, it was Shu Sanqi’s thin, gun-like figure. Shu’s eyebrows were wrinkled at the moment, and he looked sullen.

Seeing this scene, a fit of worry rose in the hearts of Lin Xun, Young Man and Old Mo. Even Chirps in Lin Xun’s arms seemed to sense some danger and hid itself in Lin Xun’s clothes.

“Well, you must be Master Mo.”

As soon as the handsome man came in, he was like a king who ruled the world, with overweening momentum. His eyes instantly locked onto Old Mo like lightning.

For that moment, Old Mo’s face suddenly changed, and his whole body was shivering, as if he was suffering from some kind of fear.

Lin Xun and Young Man dared not move. They were different in cultivation level but they felt the same terrible pressure at this time. They felt just like they might drown in an ocean at any time.

This was terrifying!

A kind of invisible momentum could impact people on mind. It could imagine how powerful this graceful man was.

Shu Sanqi suddenly came up and stood in front of them to protect them from the momentum. He looked up at the graceful man and said, “Shin Rutie, Bloodthirsty Camp it’s not a place where you can act wildly.”

The pressure on Lin Xun and others faded like the tide, and they soon felt relaxed all over. When they looked at the graceful man again, their eyes were full of fear.

“Thirteen years ago, I could not defeat you, but now… Your Wolf Fang is broken. Do you think you could be comparable to me?”

“You want to try?”

Shu Sanqi’s eyes were cold as a knife, and his momentum suddenly surged up with destructive spirit. The air around him was oppressed by him, wailing.

Shin Rutie kept silent for a moment, then he suddenly raised his head and laughed, “Old man, you still have quite a temper. If I’m not come for this important task, I really want to fight with you to compare the strength of your Wolf Fang with that of my Aquarius Seal!”

Aquarius Seal!

Hearing this, Shu Sanqi’s eyes narrowed instantly, “No wonder you are so fearless today. Which one of Academy of Spiritual Implements helped you refine it?”

Shin Rutie smiled and said, “It’s a secret.”

Then, he frowned and said, “Get out of my way, please. I have to act under the order. I will only take Master Mo and a young man named Lin Xun away. I’m not trying to fight with you.”

Lin Xun was badly stunned. How could he be involved in this matter too?

Even Young Man was surprised, but soon she seemed to think of something, which made her pretty face suddenly get gloomy.

“Give me a reason,” Shu Sanqi said coldly and held his ground.

Shin Rutie said with a look of deep significance, “Academy of Spiritual Implements needs people like them.”

A touch of coldness flickered in Shu Sanqi’s eyes suddenly, “You have known that?”

Shin Rutie chuckled, “Shu Sanqi, you should know that the Bloodthirsty Camp serves the empire. It’s not your private territory. Do you really think what has happened here can be kept secret?”

Shu Sanqi’s face became gloomier. He said emphatically, “Anyway, I can’t allow you to take them away.”

Shin Rutie seemed to have anticipated this. He pulled out a mysterious lavender token from his clothes and said, “You should know the meaning of this token. Are you sure you want to disobey the order?”

Seeing this token, Shu Sanqi could not keep calm at last. With the look on his face changing drastically, he became speechless.

The atmosphere became oppressive and suffocating.

Lin Xun vaguely guessed what it was, but he was not so sure. He was frightened for uncertain reason at this moment.

Young Man and Old Mo had already turned depressed. They seemed to have fully understood why Shin Rutie came and what he wanted.

“Old chap, the interests of the empire are above everything else. You should understand that. Now, please step aside!”

Shin Rutie put away the token and took a deep breath. His face became solemn and oppressive.
