The Legends: The Tale of Immortality
Chapter 16: BaiLi Yun Xiao's Apology

BaiLi Yun Hua looked at the person who was still bowing to him and his mood became more and more complicated. He did not think BaiLi Yun Xiao's actions would bring back memories that had long been locked in the black box far at the end of his mind. He always thought it had no effect on him, but he could not forget it. He had always expected such warmth again, but he knew that his wish was so impossible that he tried to ignore those memories.

Everyone has changed. BaiLi Yun Xiao had changed, and he had also changed. The memories that he considered to have once been a precious thing might just be ordinary episodes that would pass in BaiLi Yun Xiao's life.

BaiLi Yun Hua took a breath and said, "Young Master shouldn't be. If someone sees this we could be in trouble."

BaiLi Yun Xiao finally straightened his back. He could feel BaiLi Yun Xiao's attitude having a change towards him. At least not as alert as before.

BaiLi Yun Xiao knew that his words might have touched this child's minefield. While he was bowing, he could feel the evil intent emanating from BaiLi Yun Hua even though it was so faint that he almost thought it was his illusion.

Of course, the word 'sorry' was completely useless after this child had experienced it all for seventeen years. Saying 'sorry' will only deepen his anger. BaiLi Yun Xiao knew that his actions were useless and BaiLi Yun Hua might underestimate his apology, but he had no regrets. He always wanted to do it, he always wanted to apologize to this child for what he had been through all this time.

Fortunately, after this action BaiLi Yun Hua was not too wary of him anymore. She always had the opportunity to keep and return a brother's affectionate debt for her.

BaiLi Yun Hua did not know BaiLi Yun Xiao's inner thoughts, nor did he know that they might have had a relationship in the past. Right now he was only thinking about what he would do. He did not have anything important to do and preferred to return to the inn. However, his doubts have been answered.

"Have you thought about what it would bring to Luo Xing Academy?"

"Huh?" BaiLi Yun Hua did not know how to answer him. He was notoriously poor, even if he wanted to buy something, he had no capital.

BaiLi Yun Xiao immediately remembered the matter of this young man and immediately changed his sentence, "I'll take you to buy some supplies."

BaiLi Yun Hua wanted to say that she did not need it, but she had already been pulled away in a certain direction.

BaiLi Yun Xiao carried or rather dragged his interlocutor to a quality craftsman shop. BaiLi Yun Hua stared at the quality items on display in the store and felt his throat a bit dry. If it had been in the past, he would have never set foot in an expensive store like this.

"Please show me the special storage artifacts, thank you."

Hearing BaiLi Yun Xiao's request, the shopkeeper took out various types of jewelry such as: rings, bracelets, pendants, earrings, necklaces, hairpins, and so on.

All of this jewelry is used for women and some are for men. BaiLi Yun Xiao took a few and observed them at a glance. The shopkeeper introduced every item BaiLi Yun Xiao saw. Hearing the price the shopkeeper mentioned, BaiLi Yun Hua only wanted to get out immediately.

This shop is just robbing people!!!

After observing for a while, BaiLi Yun Xiao said, "This is not what I want. Can you show the type that has additional attributes? We want the kind that's used for men."

The shopkeeper's eyes flashed, his smile growing wider as he looked at BaiLi Yun Xiao, This person is clearly golden walking.

BaiLi Yun Hua was shocked when he heard BaiLi Yun Xiao's request. Storage artifacts with additional attributes were extremely expensive high-end artifacts! Artifacts like this are only sold in high-end stores because it is very difficult to produce them.

The shopkeeper stored back all the artifacts on the table, "Please wait a moment."

The shopkeeper whispered to a waiter and the waiter immediately went upstairs. Moments later, the maid came down with four boxes in her hands.

The shopkeeper opened the first box. It contained a silver pendant in the shape of angel wings.

"This pendant has a space of 1,000 cubic meters and will not be damaged under the attack of a level 9 cultivator."

The second box was opened and a snake-shaped bracelet made of black iron with ruby gems adorning the snake's eyes.

"This bracelet has a space of 900 cubic meters and has the effect of resisting the attacks of early stage silver level cultivators."

The third box was opened and a pure jade ring appeared in their sight.

"This ring has a space of 1000 cubic meters and has a concealment ability. After the owner drips his blood, cultivators below the silver level will not be able to find the existence of this ring except its owner."

The last box was opened and a dull-looking iron bracelet was located inside.

"Despite its poor appearance and only having an area of 500 cubic meters, this bracelet was brought back from a secret realm. It is said that this bracelet has a mysterious secret, but after being examined by some experts we did not find any abnormalities in this bracelet. However, who knew maybe master was lucky and could discover the secret of this bracelet?"

The shop owner's words sounded high, but it actually lured BaiLi Yun Xiao to spend money on this supposedly completely worthless item. However, unexpectedly BaiLi Yun Xiao would ask the price of the bracelet.

"300.000"

"Too expensive." refuted BaiLi Yun Xiao.

"Then 270,000 crystals. How's it?"

BaiLi Yun Xiao frowned, "The space of this bracelet is only 500 cubic meters and has no other additional attributes. Besides, we don't even know if this thing is really valuable."

"250,000, this price is already very low," the shopkeeper bargained.

"200,000" BaiLi Yun Xiao said.

The shopkeeper smiled stiffly and said, "Master, this price is too low."

"I would only buy it if the price was lowered to 200,000. After all, these bracelets were too ordinary. It's hard to buy if the price is higher." BaiLi Yun Xiao smiled as he looked at the shopkeeper sincerely.

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and agreed. This bracelet has been checked several times and no abnormalities were found, it is difficult to find buyers who want to spend money on this damaged object. For the sake of selling these bracelets, the shopkeeper could only agree to the price BaiLi Yun Xiao offered.

BaiLi Yun Xiao smiled and kept the fourth box. He looked at BaiLi Yun Hua and asked, "Where do you want?"

BaiLi Yun Hua hesitated. These things were extremely valuable, he would not be able to afford them and was not comfortable receiving objects this expensive for free.

Perhaps seeing his doubt, BaiLi Yun Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Choose it. Consider it a gift for your graduation to be Luo Xing Academy's student."

After hearing BaiLi Yun Xiao's sincere sentence, BaiLi Yun Hua did not hesitate anymore. He chose a jade ring. BaiLi Yun Xiao saw that he had chosen and said to the shopkeeper, "I want these two boxes as well."

The shopkeeper became elated and mentioned the total price, "450,000 jade rings, 400,000 silver pendants, 470,000 iron bracelets, plus 200,000 in total all 1,520,000 crystals."

BaiLi Yun Xiao handed him the black card in his hand. Because the amount of money is too large, it is more convenient to use the card.

BaiLi Yun Hua felt astonished after exiting the shop. This shopping experience is so much fun. This was the first time he had experienced something like this. BaiLi Yun Xiao did not stop here, he pulled BaiLi Yun Hua into the weapon shop.

The shop has four floors. The first floor were all low-quality weapons. The second floor was a place with medium-quality weapons. High-quality weapons are all on the third floor. Upscale weapons are all on the fourth floor.

BaiLi Yun Xiao entered the shop. The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man, after seeing BaiLi Yun Xiao the shopkeeper smiled, "That's you? You're back."

BaiLi Yun Xiao smiled and greeted familiarly, "Uncle Mu, I want to see the weapons on the fourth floor."

Uncle Mu waved his hand, "Good up and see for yourself."

BaiLi Yun Xiao pulled BaiLi Yun Hua and explored the place intimately.

BaiLi Yun Hua felt strange with the careless attitude of the shopkeeper. Seeing that BaiLi Yun Xiao did not care about the attitude of the shopkeeper, he asked curiously, "Young Master knows the shopkeeper?"

"My weapon came from this place. I've very often bought weapons in this store while in Luo Xing City."

Seeing BaiLi Yun Xiao answer him, BaiLi Yun Hua weighed in and hesitantly asked, "Young Master has visited Luo Xing City in the past?"

BaiLi Yun Xiao looked at BaiLi Yun Hua with smiling eyes and replied, "Yes, I am more or less familiar with Luo Xing City. In the past I lived in Luo Xing City for quite some time."

They arrived on the fourth floor using a hidden elevator. On this floor there are many weapons displayed on the wall with their information. In addition there are also many tables on which are placed weapons covered with glass boxes with information about the product taped next to the table. Overall if there was no price tag on the information sheet, the whole place would look like a weapons museum.

"Have you used a gun before?" baili Yun Xiao asked.

BaiLi Yun Hua slightly fell silent, before replying, "No."

BaiLi Yun Hua did not lie. He always kills people with his bare hands. The reason for that was because it was easier and he had no money. His method of fighting was simple and brutal. No need for any elegant actions, he just needed to break the opponent's throat.

"Luo Xing Academy holds an ability exam every month, there will also be an inter-class fight. Compared to teaching theory, Luo Xing Academy paid more attention to the battle system. Usually the elite class let students exchange blows and science read itself through the library."

BaiLi Yun Xiao paused for a moment, "So, don't expect a strong learning atmosphere in the classroom later. Even women are generally good at fighting. In essence, most of the students in Luo Xing Academy spoke with their fists."

BaiLi Yun Hua was stunned.

"Of course, not everyone is like that. There are rules that limit students. If they have disagreements, there is a challenge platform. They can fight there, the teacher will not forbid it" BaiLi Yun Xiao continued.

BaiLi Yun Hua, "Then what if a student dies in a fight?"

"Killing is forbidden, unless they sign a life-and-death agreement in the arena of challenge."

BaiLi Yun Hua was silent.

BaiLi Yun Xiao thought BaiLi Yun Hua was anxious, having not heard a response from him.

"There's really no need to panic. The students would not carelessly invite people to a fight. If you have a problem, just report it to the teacher or come and find me."

BaiLi Yun Hua looked at BaiLi Yun Xiao with a doubtful look. BaiLi Yun Xiao smiled and asked, "What level are you going to study at and what class?"

BaiLi Yun Hua recalled the information in his test results and replied, "First grade, class A-1"

"You didn't do the third exam, so they counted you into the initial category, just like those who hadn't started cultivating. Class A is the class with the most talented students. Usually if the number of students entering class A is too many, they will be divided, such as: A-1, A-2, A-3, and so on."

"Each class is divided into A-F. If A is the best, then F is the worst class. In certain months, there will be competition between the classes that determine the class rank."

BaiLi Yun Hua, "Wouldn't it be bad if class F students meet class A students."

BaiLi Yun Xiao, "So students can give up. Before the game starts, if the student feels unable to defeat his opponent or does not want to fight, then they can give up."

BaiLi Yun Hua, "Aren't they going to be laughed at if they give up early?"

BaiLi Yun Xiao, "This is the atmosphere of the academy. It is impossible for us to expect a state of complete harmony when different types of people mix in it. It was not even uncommon for there to be groups hostile to other groups or stronger students oppressing weaker students and weaker students hanging under the protection of stronger students."

BaiLi Yun Hua who had never attended school, felt his three views being destroyed. Are not schools and academies a place to cultivate knowledge, a place where everyone exchanges knowledge. How can students hit each other like gangsters?

"Luo Xing Academy is an academy that nurtures cultivators. Of course the main requirement of students was to have a sharp battle essence, including forging artifacts and alchemists. Unlike the schools in the territory of the human race, the students are ordinary humans, of course the learning system is also different."

"If the atmosphere in Luo Xing Academy was peaceful and the students were just demanding knowledge, how could the academy produce superior cultivators? It was estimated that the students would not attempt to increase their strength and would not be able to fight when outside. It's just a waste of talent."

BaiLi Yun Hua only thought about the extent to which he should cover. If he were to fight with someone, then others would definitely realize the disadvantage. His way of fighting was too brutal for the rate of a beginner.

If the people of the BaiLi clan saw him and they sent someone to check more deeply into his information, they would probably find out his flaws and he would be in deep trouble.

Primarily...

BaiLi Yun Hua peeked at BaiLi Yun Xiao from the corner of his eye. He had no idea how this Young Master BaiLi would react.

Would he be hostile to her, or even wipe out her existence?

To avoid this situation, he should have stayed away from BaiLi Yun Xiao. It was easy for BaiLi Yun Xiao to eliminate him if this person wanted to, but BaiLi Yun Xiao gave him a strange feeling. It felt like the kindness she had aimed for was too sincere, as if she was trying to raise him.

Em..this is more like...

Like intimacy for the family...

This thought flashed through BaiLi Yun Hua's mind and his pupils shrank.

Maddened. He must be crazy. How could he think like that? If anyone knew his thoughts, he would be done!
