Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2556: Treasures Inside Sword Mountain
Previously on Invincible Little School Doctor...
Following Baili Jin back to the Xu Family, after regrouping with Chen Qiwen and Wan Qin Wan Xi, the party went to the Teleportation Hall and headed to Holy Sword City.
Holy Sword City is located at the center of Guangning Prefecture, named for the steep Sword Mountain at its back.
Much like the Xu Family, the Baili Family was once the dominant force in Guangning Prefecture. But now, much of Guangning Prefecture has been eroded by the Temple, and the Baili Family governs only two cities.
Stepping out of the Teleportation Hall, Ye Haochuan immediately saw the towering Sword Mountain.
This mountain seems to have been cleaved by an axe and chisel, standing tall and straight, resembling a sword blade and hilt, almost identical to a real sword.
“Wait, this is actually a real sword!”
Ye Haochuan inadvertently activated his Perspective Eyes and instantly discovered the truth.
The outer layer of the Sword Mountain is wrapped in rocks and earth, but inside, it is indeed an enormous sword.
“You saw through that in one glance, nice eye!”
Baili Jin laughed heartily and said, “That’s right, this is a real sword, left by someone unknown. Though it has no Flower Energy, it remains imposing, and has been refined by our ancestor, serving as the Baili Family’s supreme treasure.”
“So powerful!”
Ye Haochuan gazed up at Sword Mountain, marveling in awe.
Though he hadn’t witnessed the true power of this sword, the mere feeling it emanates clearly conveyed its extraordinary nature.
“Come on, let me show you the dowry I’m giving to my daughter!”
Shentu Fu said mysteriously, pulling Ye Haochuan towards Sword Mountain.
Shortly after, the group arrived at the foot of Sword Mountain.
Here, two Middle Level God Lords stood guard, imposing and awe-inspiring, clearly indicating how much the Baili Family values this Sword Mountain.
Upon seeing Baili Jin appear, the two Middle Level God Lords respectfully saluted and addressed him: “Venerable Master!”
“Venerable Master?”
Ye Haochuan was puzzled by this title, as he hadn’t heard anyone addressed as Venerable Master in the Xu Family.
Baili Jin smiled wryly and said, “It’s because my power surpasses the Family Head. They wanted me to be the Family Head, but you know how I am, I’m used to being carefree and don’t want to worry about these matters, so I refused. They gave me this title to show reverence.”
“So you’re not the strongest in the Baili Family?” Ye Haochuan asked in surprise.
“Not at all, the ancestor and those secluded predecessors are much stronger than I am. It’s just that those ancestors haven’t appeared in thousands of years, and the Baili Family needs a real benchmark to encourage younger generations to cultivate diligently, so they pushed me into the position!”
Baili Jin’s helplessness was evidently genuine, he truly disliked such things.
“Come on, as a member of the Baili Family, you’ve already done very little for the family, what are you complaining about for such nominal responsibilities?”
Embracing Baili Jin’s arm, Wan Qin spoke disdainfully.
This woman who once ruled the Evil Sect and became a dominant powerhouse clearly doesn’t lack global perspective.
Baili Jin smiled awkwardly, holding Wan Qin’s slender waist and joked: “Qin’er, you’re not defending me. See how I punish you tonight!”
“Stop it, the daughter’s right here!”
Wan Qin blushed immediately, pounding Baili Jin’s chest.
“It’s okay, Lianqin has Young Chap Ye with her, maybe tonight they’ll be even more… Ow~, Qin’er, why are you stepping on my foot?”
Baili Jin stopped talking and started to howl.
“You fool, do you even have any paternal dignity left? If you keep this up, I won’t talk to you!” Wan Qin chided softly.
“I was wrong…”
Baili Jin quickly pulled a long face, hurriedly placating Wan Qin.
Ye Haochuan gazed oddly at Baili Jin, as if he no longer recognized the gentleman Baili Langjun.
This guy acts all high and mighty in front of outsiders, but becomes a buffoon in front of his own wife.
Nonetheless, an open-minded father-in-law is quite welcome!
Thinking of this, Ye Haochuan instinctively moved closer to Chen Qiwen.
It’s sad to say this girl is quite unfortunate, having had to change her name twice already.
From Chen Qiwen to Wan Qiwyn, and now Baili Jin changed it to Baili Lianqin.
Yet in Ye Haochuan’s eyes, she remains the shy, cute girl who asked for help with a skin ailment.
Chen Qiwen’s face was already flushed after her father’s words, wishing she could crawl into a hole.
Feeling Ye Haochuan close by, she buried her head directly into his chest, not daring to face anyone.
The only remaining “single dog” Wan Xi didn’t seem awkward despite being force-fed romance twice, instead looking at Wan Qin and Chen Qiwen with a satisfied expression.
The most pitiful were the two Middle Level God Lords guarding the gate.
All they did was call out “Venerable Master,” so why are they being force-fed romance twice?
In this world, is life really unnecessary anymore?
“Okay, let’s get to business first?”
It was Wan Qin who brought some rationality, redirecting the conversation.
Baili Jin looked awkward, lightly coughed and said, “Alright, Young Chap Ye, Lianqin, you may go inside!”
Chen Qiwen finally extracted herself from Ye Haochuan’s embrace, dragged him and rushed toward Sword Mountain.
Wait a minute, isn’t this girl bearing harassment and trying to commit suicide by hitting the rock?
Ye Haochuan’s heart skipped a beat.
Yet in the next moment, he realized the surroundings had suddenly changed.
This was a dim world, beneath his feet lay black soil, and around, not a single plant.
Only a biting aura filled the entire space.
“Where is this place?”
Ye Haochuan asked instinctively.
“This is the world inside Sword Mountain!” Chen Qiwen replied.
“Such a vast world inside the sword?”
Ye Haochuan curiously looked around, puzzled: “But it’s bare, without anything!”
“Within, there is only one treasure. If you find it, it will be immensely beneficial, but if you don’t, you leave lamenting!” Chen Qiwen earnestly explained.
“What kind of treasure is so mysterious?” Ye Haochuan grew increasingly confused.
Chen Qiwen naturally linked arms with Ye Haochuan and smiled: “Father said this is where our Baili Family prospered, most of the family’s cultivation techniques were understood by our ancestors inside this sword.”
Similar to the Xu Family’s fame with the White Tiger Beast, the Geng Family’s formations are unmatched, the Baili Family’s renown stems from countless sword techniques.
Ye Haochuan never thought that the powerful sword techniques that propelled the Baili Family into one of the seven major families all originated from a giant sword.
“So what your father is giving me is the chance to comprehend extraordinary cultivation techniques?”
Ye Haochuan’s eyes widened, unsure whether to feel happy or distressed.
Self-realized cultivation techniques evidently align more with oneself than learned ones.
However, there is significant uncertainty involved; great insight might yield a powerful cultivation technique, but weakness in understanding could just waste time.
Nonetheless, it’s a rare opportunity that Ye Haochuan won’t easily forgo.
Outside Sword Mountain, Baili Jin was ready to leave with Wan Qin, but suddenly remembered something, turned and asked, “By the way, who else is inside Sword Mountain.”
“Young Lord Chan is inside!” replied one Middle Level God Lord.
“What, that Little Madman is inside?”
Baili Jin suddenly chuckled helplessly and said, “Well, Young Chap Ye, you’ll have to fend for yourself!”
