Chapter 68 Emlyn Attends the Tarot Meeting
While drinking, Raphael taught Bai Feike how to extract information from other "Blood Clan" disciples.
He also promised that if Bai Feike brought other "Blood Sect" disciples to him for help and made a deal, he would give Bai Feike a "share".
After all, each promotion requires a potion recipe, and after the promotion, the name of the potion is needed to perform the role.
Raphael paid a certain "share" in advance and told Bai Feike that he could keep comprehending the word "arson" and his condition would definitely improve.
Bai Feike is only a Sequence 7. As long as he tries his best, his condition can be improved relatively easily, unlike "Xuanyin Demon Lord", who is already a Sequence 2. It would be good if he could maintain his original condition.
The next issue was how to contact them. Fortunately, the cultivator world also had newspapers, so as long as a set of codes was designed, they could contact each other using the newspapers.
Bai Feike's companions moved very slowly, and Raphael was already quite drunk when the door to the private room was finally kicked open.
What happened next was pretty much what Raphael had predicted. The group of men looked fierce and asked if Bai Feike had set the fire earlier.
Bai Feike's acting was decent; he didn't immediately deny it, but instead looked bewildered.
Raphael stood up, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "My name is Zhou Fei of the Dark Lodge."
Raphael's extraordinary power in the world of cultivators comes from the "True Lord's Jade Body," making him a genuine disciple of the "Qi Sect."
Although the reputation of "Dark Lodge" is far inferior to that of the prestigious sects, it all depends on how it's portrayed. Raphael's current righteous and awe-inspiring appearance suggests that he is the protagonist.
Sure enough, these young disciples who came out for training were fooled by Raphael's few words and believed what this "Qi Sect" disciple said, thinking that Bai Feike had been discussing the "Blood Sect" cultivation method here.
So everyone sat down, and after a few drinks, no one mentioned the fire again.
After chatting for a while, Raphael learned that Bai Feike's companions came from "Dongting Heart Sword" and "Juye Light Sword" respectively.
One of the female disciples of the "Dongting Heart Sword" sect asked Raphael, "Brother Zhou, did you come to Yuzhou to observe the 'Five Lakes Sword Competition'?"
Raphael was good-looking and spoke with neither arrogance nor servility, which naturally attracted the attention of this female disciple.
Raphael would recall hearing Chen Qingzhi mention the "Five Lakes Sword Tournament." Although the Five Lakes Sword Sect did not have a secret realm, it did have two sacred artifacts. It was said that the existence of a secret realm could be sensed through those two sacred artifacts.
However, it seems that they can only sense the existence of the secret realm, but cannot find it using the sacred artifact.
The five branches of the "Five Lakes Sword Sect" once fought fiercely for these two sacred artifacts. At that time, the whole world was in chaos because of their internal strife, and two branches were almost wiped out by other major powers.
The five branches realized that if things continued this way, the "Sword Sect's" lineage might be interrupted.
Thus, the prototype of "Five Lakes Sword Competition" gradually emerged, organizing disciples from five branches to compete only in skills, without risking their lives.
Whichever branch emerges victorious in the "Five Lakes Sword Tournament" will become the new leader and take control of the two sacred artifacts.
After more than a thousand years of evolution, the "Five Lakes Sword Competition" has become a major event in this world.
In addition to competing with each other, the five branches also invite other forces to observe, and even famous figures from these other forces are appointed as referees.
Many disciples from various sects who came out to travel believed that this was a good opportunity to observe actual combat, so a large number of disciples from other sects would also appear at the "Five Lakes Sword Competition".
Of course, not all matches can be observed. For example, if Raphael were to go, he could only watch the matches at the "Mortal Realm" level.
If he ascends to the next level and attains the cultivation of the early stage of the "Transformation Realm", then he will be able to observe the details of the "Transformation Realm" level.
These thoughts only briefly crossed Raphael's mind before he smiled and said, "Yes, such a grand event is certainly worth seeing."
Another young disciple of "Giant Wilderness Light Sword" suggested, "Why don't we go together? That way we can look out for each other."
Raphael, who had anticipated this invitation, replied, "I've hit it off with you all at first sight, and of course I'd love to travel with you all on your chivalrous journey, but—alas, I have important matters to attend to. I must first fulfill my master's instructions before I can observe the 'Five Lakes Sword Tournament.'"
Just kidding. At such a grand event, there will definitely be disciples of the Dark Pavilion present. Raphael, that fake, will be exposed in no time.
The others didn't seem to care much, and while expressing their regret, they started talking about other topics.
River Bend Avenue, Dr. White's Clinic.
Emlyn White, half-reclining on his bed in his room, quietly watched his dolls.
Ding ding~ When the clock on the first floor rang, it was exactly three o'clock.
Today is Monday, the day for a tarot reading.
Emlyn's vision was immediately obscured by the gray mist, and soon he appeared in the hall-like venue, on one side of the bronze table.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool." The clear, melodious, and slightly cheerful greeting of Justice rang out, officially beginning this Tarot session.
Emlyn glanced at "Justice," who was bowing slightly with her skirt lifted across from her, and sighed: What a carefree young girl.
Her tone always seemed so cheerful.
No one offered Russell's diary to Mr. Fool today, so the transaction proceeded quickly.
First, Miss Justice canceled the deal regarding the magical item that was made at the last gathering.
Everyone realized that this noble lady had probably already gotten what she wanted.
Emlyn had only recently been promoted to "Viscount," also known as "Crimson Scholar," and was currently working hard to digest the potion. He didn't need anything in the near future, so he quietly waited for the transaction to end.
When it came to the Q&A session, Emlin was about to do what he always did: look around at the members and then speak.
Unexpectedly, Miss "Judgment" spoke first: "Last week I received news that a werewolf had appeared in Backlund."
Emlyn paused slightly, as this was exactly what he was about to discuss.
Meanwhile, "Justice" Audrey and "Star" Leonard also knew about this. The former heard about it at a occult salon, while the latter saw the "report" provided by the "Punisher".
The only one unaware is "The Fool" Klein, the wealthy Backlund who encountered the evil spirit "Red Angel" last week and is investigating the witch cult's collaboration with the royal family.
The few members who weren't in Backlund didn't take it too seriously. In their view, with so many extraordinary beings in Backlund, there should be more than one werewolf hiding there.
"Judgment" Hugh Deercha noticed the other members' reactions and explained to Mr. Hanged Man and the others, "The werewolf has appeared on the streets of Backlund after transforming, causing a small-scale panic."
