Night of the Broken Gliph - Chapter 575

That night, Kam Chin Kee was so drunk that he fell asleep on the bamboo chair.

Still awake, Chui Yim sat in the arena made of rocks, drinking wine while he looked up at the night sky as if he was trying to see through it.

Lam Ming Sum walked towards him and took the wine, chugging it. Her actions shocked Chui Yim.

“Cough…” The wine was so strong that it made Lam Ming Sum choke.

“Haha!” Chui Yim laughed at her mercilessly and took the wine back.

Lam Ming Sum was flushed red from the wine.

“Brother Chui, am I useless?” Looking at Chui Yim, she asked.

“Ah?” Chui Yim was shocked.

“I’m useless, right?” Lam Ming Sum mumbled. “I can’t fight, nor can I support you both during battles. I can’t even refine pills or treat injuries. All I can do is hide in the corner and be useless.

“The only strength of mine is my shabby culinary skills. There’s nothing I can do to help the both of you other than make dishes that help you restore energy.”

The more Lam Ming Sum went about, the angrier and more upset she was with herself. She snatched the wine from Chui Yim’s hands and started chucking down the wine.

Lam Ming Sum heard how Chui Yim used his own blood to refine the cure and how Ping Ching speculated something strange was going on at the bottom of the lake. In comparison to the geniuses, Lam Ming Sum, who only hid at home waiting for their return, was… a huge piece of trash.

Chui Yim snatched the wine away and smacked her on her head. “What nonsense are you babbling?

“It’s because we know that you have our backs that me and Chin Kee can get things done worry-free!” Chui Yim looked into her eyes with complete seriousness. “We are aware that you’ll keep a look out for us, and to us, you are our motivation. The delicious dinner you make us is what we anticipate the most in a day!”

Lam Ming Sum was stunned speechless. Her eyes felt sour, yet she wore a smile on her face subconsciously.

At last, she covered her mouth and giggled. Chui Yim’s words lit up her day.

She was not useless, but what they anticipated most in a day.

Chui Yim did not know if he should laugh or cry. She’s easily satisfied. He caressed her head, messing up her blue hair like he always did when they were kids.

On the bamboo chair not far away, Kam Chin Kee, who was breathing steadily, wore a small smile on his face.

The next day, the boys paid a visit to the Hung Mansion. Hung Siu received them personally.

“Thank you, teachers, for saving Great Wisdom City. The city will always have your great kindness in heart.”

However, Kam Chin Kee shook his head. “In that case, I should be honest with you. The treasure I acquired from the Heavenly Silver Waterfall is a new type of body form, which somehow makes me the descendant of the ancient beast and helped prevent blood poison from entering my body, uncovering this whole incident.

“Thus, there’s no need to be grateful to us, as Great Wisdom City has already given us huge benefits.”

“It’s all about fate in cultivation,” Hung Siu said, “If not for sixth teacher gaining the special body form, we would not have discovered this incident. Every sip and every peck is preordained, sixth teacher returned the favour by helping Great Wisdom City in this incident.

“However, it’s hard to repay seventh teacher, who made the cure with his own blood.” Hung Siu turned to Chui Yim. But before the teen could say anything, Hung Siu waved his hands. “I’m not a pretentious person, I just want to thank both of you and let you know that the city remembers your great kindness. Great Wisdom City will always welcome you. Even if we must go against the entire world, the city will do our best and fear nothing.”

Chui Yim nodded, he was no pretentious person either. “Then I shall thank you in advance, we might have to bother the city for sometime before we leave.”

“Great Wisdom City welcomes you both greatly.” Hung Siu let out a hearty laugh.

Their remaining stay in the city was peaceful.

Strictly speaking, it was not poison that took the lives of the Great Wisdom City cultivators, but excess energy. After Chui Yim successfully made the cure, the patients that survived became stronger than before, and amongst them all, Hung Ching Sun’s power skyrocketed. Not only did he digest the waterfall’s energy fully, he immediately broke through to the three-chambered state after receiving his elder brother’s initiated technique.

After days of mourning, the city slowly returned to normal. There were even more cultivators that came to challenge Chui Yim, Kung-Suen Ching Lau came to their residence to see Kam Chin Kee for all sorts of reasons, and To Tsz Suet still led her fan club to cheer for Chui Yim during the challenges.

It was as if everything had returned to normal.

In the extreme North, there was a place where the snow did not reach.

Yet it couldn’t be considered a treasured land, as humans could feel the burning temperature when they moved close to the area.

To the residents, they were already used to this weather of two extremes. The reason for the scorching temperature was the volcano in this area, named the Blazing Skies Mountain. Yes, the well-known Blazing Skies Mountain.

However, it was destined that this day would be uneventful.

A phoenix cry rang across the entire volcano.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh… Numerous sounds signified the arrival of various elites.

They were currently in front of a cave near the Blazing Skies Mountain, an area where flame was greatly active. The flames made this cave a treasure to cultivators!

This was where the phoenix cry came from. After a long time, the entrance opened, revealing a figure.

A gorgeous woman walked out of the cave. She was extremely beautiful, yet not stunning.

Her beautiful curves were covered in an ordinary-looking training robe, giving off handsome instead of sexy vibes. She stood barefooted, the energliph movement still surrounding her and making it seem like there was an illusory cloak made of feathers behind her, and there seemed to be a phoenix with wings wide open in the middle.

With a slight movement of her eyes, the cloak disappeared into thin air, leaving the crowd stunned speechless.

Reaching the ten-gliphic state in her early twenties? Everybody thought that she was greatly affected and dejected for the past four years she remained silent.

Now, when she appeared in front of the world again, she appeared as someone who those of the same generation dared not dream of overtaking.

She was Mung Si, ever the monster.
