Chapter 82. What Kind Of Shitty Forced Development Is This?
Because Su Ping, Bai Yushi, and Ren Qingquan are in a coma, I changed my focus to others while only leaving a small part of my attention on them.
Among the people that's always in my observation, only Ren Qingchen seems to do an interesting things. Coincidentally, when I sent most of my attention to his [Scan], I found him stopped hunting and looked a bit thoughtful before he started to mutter something.
"The inheritance of Endless Infatuation Immortal should start soon." Ren Qingchen suddenly paused. "Guess I need to go and start my preparation. After all, to enter the inheritance area, I need to follow that crazy immortal's requirement of going as a pair of man and woman. Otherwise, even if I found a door, I'll just get imprisoned inside. But, who should I bring with me."
Right after he said that, I saw Ren Qingchen used his movement technique and quickly moved toward the Pure Wave Sect's direction.
Wait a minute, the requirement for this inheritance sounds familiar.
I looked back at Su Ping and Bai Yushi who had been separated.
Are they in the inheritance area that Ren Qingchen just mentioned before?
If what Ren Qingchen said is true. Then Ren Qingquan has been imprisoned somewhere in the inheritance site because he forcefully barged in as a single guy?
Now then, With Ren Qingchen also busy running to the sect, let's see what the others are doing.
Through [Scan], I saw everyone that arrived with Ren Qingquan from the Martial Arts world are still busy cultivating or doing missions.
There are also the Pure Wave Sect's higher-ups who are still playing mahjong on top of their treasured mirror. Of course it doesn't include the two people that chase after Ren Qingquan.
Next are the many elders Ren Qingquan granted a subsystem during the sect meeting. Then there are the many unimportant cannon fodder Ren Qingquan granted with subsystems when he joined the Pure Wave Sect's class for the first and the last time.
Finally, there is also the Azure Emperor whose anchor still exists. Yet, I am somehow unable to connect with him. With how the last time I saw him is in the emptiness outside the world, is it possible he actually went outside of my signal range or something?I'll need to check this later.
After consecutively switching my view through several [Scan], I found all of them to be boring except for the view coming from two people.
One of them is from Senior Brother Jin Fushen who first brought Ren Qingquan's group to the Pure Wave Sect. Currently he is doing something akin to raid boss battle together with dozens other cultivators.
As for the boss they're fighting against, it is a giant frog that's constantly attacking the surrounding cultivators with its tongue. What a pity, Senior Brother Jin Fushen is only attached with a lv 1 subsystem containing [Scan]. It makes me unable to watch the battle in detail due to the [Scan]'s short range.
As for the second one, it is from Young Master Gu's scan. Currently he is in the middle of romance anime style love confession.
When I saw Young Master Gu, I was reminded of his lackey who attempted to kill Ren Qingquan. Yet after some observation, I found out he is actually quite chill and there seems to be a misunderstanding.
When I remembered the amount of his luck, I decided to give him a lv 4 subsystem from my own pocket for now. Let's count it as a compensation for using him as my standard unit of measurement for luck.
Of course I'll ask Ren Qingquan for reimbursement later. Currently Ren Qingquan already has more than 3.000 points gained from collecting remnants souls.
With the upgrade of his subsystem, the range of Young Master Gu's [Scan] greatly increased. This made me find out he is currently standing nearby a picturesque lake with a woman standing in front of him.
At this time, the woman I mentioned is shyly whispering to Young Master Gu as her face slowly turned red. "Senior Brother Gu, do you want to be a dao companion with me?"
I saw Young Master Gu trying to open his mouth. But right at this moment, a man and a woman appeared from behind a nearby bush.
When the man saw the female cultivator in front of Young Master Gu, who actually asked Young Master Gu to be her dao companion. He shouted in a loud voice full of indignation that reverberated throughout the lake." Gu Cheng! Just because you are the son of an elder, do you think you can take anyone as your woman?!"
I am a bit speechless. Boy, are you deaf or perhaps blind? Don't you see that woman is the one confessing to Young Master Gu?
The woman who confessed to Young Master Gu also thinks so, as she angrily shouted with tears in her eyes. "Enough, don't you see I am the one that confessed my love to Young Master Gu? There is no need for you to poke your nose on my issue."
Yet, even after hearing her say that, the man is still unwilling to accept reality as he shouted. "Yin Lan, There is no need to be afraid. I know you must've been forced to do this."
Then he shot an angry look at Young Master Gu. "You sick demon, how can you force her to do such a thing?!"
Meanwhile, Young Master Gu just stood there with a cold expression as he looked at the drama that was unfolding.
It might be my illusion, but the expression on Young Master Gu's face is similar to the one Ren Qingquan has when he is confused.
Young Master Gu froze there for a whole minute before he asked with a questioning look. "May I ask who you are?"
That man gritted his teeth in anger upon hearing Young Master Gu's answer. "Are you trying to fake innocence after forcing Junior Sister Yin to be your dao companion and sending your lackey to kill and rob my treasure?"
"No seriously, who are you?" After asking a question to the loud man, Young Master Gu then gently pushed the woman that had been hugging him since several minutes ago. "Also, please stop hugging me. We aren't that close."
The woman felt Young Master Gu pushed her away and started crying.
"How dare you make Yin Lan cry? You trashy second generation douchebag, die!" That loud man pushed his sword toward Young Master Gu who stood coldly watching the chaos around him.
"Gong Jiayi, Stop!" While screaming, Yin Lan, who had been pushed by Young Master Gu previously quickly ran in front of him while hugging him and jumped away from the sword attack. That action of hers resulted in Young Master Gu going outside the sword's range. But in exchange, she entered the range of that man's sword attack.
When the man called Gong Jiayi found Yin Lan entering the path of his sword attack, I saw him trying to suppress his spirit qi. Yet the attack has been released and even after using all of his ability, it still landed at the woman with full force and pushed her into the lake.
When Gong Jiayi saw it, he shouted in shock "Yin Lan!"
***
Because he is pushed by Yin Lan, Young Master Gu fell down into the lake together with her. While falling into the depth of that lake, I saw him try to gently push the woman away several times. Yet, the woman's arms don't budge at all.
Due to the weight and that woman who stuck at Young Master Gu like an octopus. Both of them fall deeper into the lake water until both of them finally get sucked into a water vortex.
Upon being thrown out of that water vortex, Young Master Gu and that woman found themselves inside an underwater cave.
Finally capable of utilizing his full strength, Young Master Gu peeled the hand that's been squeezing him. "This woman is frickin strong. How does she even have such powerful physical strength? I almost died from her damned hug."
Once he successfully separated her from his body, Young Master Gu looked at the injuries on that woman's body and said. "No matter what, she is still injured because of me. Although I didn't need her help at all previously."
Young Master Gu took a pill from his robes and fed it to the unconscious woman. When the pill's medicinal effect started, the wound on her body healed and she quickly woke up.
When Yin Lan felt the wound on her body healed, she held Young Master Gu's hand and thanked him multiple times while telling her backstory. "This is the second time you've saved my life. I am not sure whether you remembered it, but the last time you saved me was when I fell from a waterfall after being chased by my enemies!"
"I've always remembered your life saving grace, and after secretly observing you for some time, I can't help but fall in love with you. Please accept my request and be my dao companion."
Young Master Gu just nodded and ignored her second question. "Let's look for another way out. Although your external wound has healed, there are still some internal injuries on your body. The water vortex we arrived from contained some chaotic energy. If we tried to forcefully pass against its current, your wound might turn worse."
Although she got ignored, the woman called Yin Lan happily nodded as she smiled. It's unknown what kind of thing is going on inside her head.
Young Master Gu walked together with Yin Lan into the depth of that underwater cave, and soon both of them saw a door I am familiar with.
It is a double door made out of stone. On the door, there is a mural of a couple being separated by multiple hands that pull them away from each other.
That's right, it is exactly the same as the door that Su Ping, Bai Yushi, and Ren Qingquan entered.
What a bullshit coincidence!
Also, there are actually more than two doors to enter the inheritance site?
When Young Master Gu tried to push the door, he found it unwilling to budge. That is until Yin Lan placed her hand into the door.
Just like the last door I see. Once a man and woman touched the door, it automatically opened itself while shooting light all over the place.
Watching the spectacle unfold in front of them, Young Master Gu asked. "How about we enter this door? Who knows, it might lead us outside of this cave."
"I'll just follow Senior Brother Gu." Yin Lan happily nodded with a smile.
Coincidentally, when both of them are halfway into the door. That loud guy called Gong Jiayi arrived. Just like before when he barged into Yin Lan's confession scene, he still entered with the unknown woman who appeared together with him from the bush before.
When he saw Young Master Gu and Yin Lan enter that door, he pulled the woman next to him along and followed after both of them into the door while shouting. "Wait!!"
With a flashing light, all four of them left the underwater cave and entered the door.
Upon entering, Young Master Gu is separated from the other three peoples just like how Su Ping and Bai Yushi are separated.
It can't be said to be exactly the same though. Because unlike both of them, Young Master Gu only fell unconscious for a moment due to his cultivation level.
