My Master Disconnected Yet Again (Part 4)

Chapter 629: Searching for Two Pieces

Lonemoon pursed his lips. Was this deterioration? This was more like reloading, right?

Among the group in front of him, he saw a familiar Zuo Shuming who was then looking at the stage with curiosity and excitement. Apart from being a bit younger, his cultivation level was also not at the Nascent Soul stage as they guessed. Instead, he was only at the Qi Refinement stage.

He was at what looked like a recruitment ground of a certain immortal sect. The sect seemed to be recruiting at the moment They must have been some powerful sect, because by the time they found the sect, there was already a huge crowd gathered, wanting to register as disciples. Most of them were at the third or fourth stage of Qi Refinement. Zuo Shuming was just a bit better than the others – he was at the seventh stage.

But compared to the cultivation level he was at when he just ascended awhile ago, the difference was like that between heaven and earth.

"Fellow Daoist Zuo!" Lonemoon could not stop himself from calling out to him. He looked at Zuo Shuming with a pained expression, as if there were many things he wanted to explain but could not.

Zuo Shuming paused and looked around.. Then, he turned to Lonemoon. "Fellow Daoist.... You know me?"

"You don't remember me?" Lonemoon frowned. It looked like this turning back in time was no different from what he knew as reloading. Even Zuo Shuming's memory was gone.

"I'm sorry." Zuo Shuming thought he had indeed forgotten Lonemoon. He immediately looked guilty. "I really don't remember you. I wonder where we met? How do I address you, Fellow Daoist?"

"My name is Lonemoon." Lonemoon's eyes narrowed. Then, he changed the topic and began to make up a story. "It's nothing huge. We met once a few years ago. At that time, you didn't bring spirit stones with you and you borrowed two from me for transport. Do you remember that?"

Yi Qing: "..."

Shen Ying: "..."

What kind of stupid excuse was that – would anyone take him seriously?

"I see!" Zuo Shuming had a sudden look of realization. "I'm sorry – I can't believe I forgot something like this. We're fated to meet again, Fellow Daoist." He quickly retrieved four spirit stones from his robe. "I'll return the spirit stones to you immediately. Thank you for helping me in my time of need, Fellow Daoist."

The master and disciple duo: "..."

He really did believe Lonemoon. This man was quite gullible, wasn't he?

"Don't worry about it, Fellow Daoist. We really were fated to meet again!" Lonemoon smiled and accepted the spirit stones.

The master and disciple duo: "..." He really accepted the spirit stones with no shame. His surname was really Niu – his skin was as thick as a cow's hide 1 !

"Fellow Daoist Lonemoon, are you also here to participate in the Tai Yan Sect's disciple recruitment process?" Zuo Shuming asked.

"Fellow Daoist Zuo, you're interested in joining Tai Yan Sect?" Lonemoon scanned the crowd and said, "I wonder what's so special about this Tai Yan Sect?"

"You must be kidding, Fellow Daoist." Zuo Shuming looked at Lonemoon earnestly. "Who doesn't know that Tai Yan Sect is the world's number one sect? Of course all cultivators want to join their sect. The only catch is Tai Yan Sect is extremely strict about its recruitment. I've been working hard for a long time to arrive at this stage before I dared to come forward and give it a shot."

"I see." Lonemoon nodded.

"That's right – I wonder what cultivation Fellow Daoist Lonemoon is at now?" Zuo Shuming could not tell what cultivation Lonemoon was at. He guessed that he was more powerful than Zuo Shuming.
