Chapter 37: The Account with the Most Handsome Profile Picture!
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The sword saint Xu Changfeng?
Hearing this title, Su Mo was shocked.
He had always known that there were two sword saints in Tianmu City. In other words, he had a senior.
According to what he had heard, that sword saint could be said to be a genius. He had awakened seven abilities at level 1, broken through to level 2 in less than a month, cross a level and kill a level 4 demon at level 3, and so on.
Since hearing about the glorious past of this senior, Su Mo had originally planned to find time to humbly ask the other party for advice and see if there was anything to take note of for the sword saint profession.
Who would have thought that the sword saint was the boss of his superior?
This caused Su Mo to feel quite conflicted.
After all, if the other party was only a deacon, then there wouldn’t have been too much of a problem in asking him for advice. However, as the guardian of a whole city, the other party was powerful and busy. Where would he find the time to care about a weak level 1 like him?
Even if they were of the same profession, it didn’t mean that the other party had to take care of him.
Moreover, seeing that the other party had left just after a brief gesture, it was clear the other party had a cold personality and was not easy to deal with.
With this, there was no need to rush over to ask.
But then again, that sword saint’s strength was indeed impressive. To think he could cut off the demon emperor’s body with a single sword, and kill countless fox demons on the scene from hundreds of meters away. Such terrifying destructive power and such precise judgment were simply terrifying!
As expected of a top genius who had once killed a level 7 demon.
Su Mo sighed in his heart, but he did not forget to walk forward.
Many of the fox demons who had died on the spot were turning into pus. However, when he arrived at the scene, he only saw his lifespan increase on the interface.
“Although the speed of adding points this time is already very shocking, there’s no doubt that a large amount would go to waste this time. After all, only by getting close to the demon’s corpse can I absorb its life force and increase my lifespan. It’s also troublesome if too many of these fox demons are killed at once,” Su Mo bitterly smiled and shook his head, his heart filled with happy worry.
No matter what, this was already the best ending. At least, he could still harvest his lifespan points leisurely.
If the demon emperor on the other side of the rift really came over, he probably wouldn’t even be able to escape.
As he thought about it, he silently harvested the lifespan. points
Su Mo turned to look at the Transcendents on the field.
The battle had ended, and most of the Transcendents who were lucky enough to survive sat on the ground. Some took medicine, and some were treated.
Their clothes were tattered and they were covered in blood. A few of them even had their bulletproof vests torn to pieces.
The only one who was still looking okay was probably Zhang Zhenyu, but even his red suit was stained with blood and filth.
“There’s no need to worry though. After all, our Captain Zhang has plenty of suits,” Thinking about how Zhang Zhenyu had changed his clothes several times in a row, Su Mo immediately felt at ease.
In contrast, no matter how bad the survivors looked or how badly injured they were, they were at least still alive.
On the other hand, the Transcendents who had died on the battlefield could no longer greet each other and joke around like before.
Su Mo looked at the corpses.
This time, a total of three people had been sacrificed. It didn’t seem like a lot, but it was close to half of a regular team. More importantly, they were all battle-hardened veterans.
There was even a captain among them. It was Team Dongfang’s leader, Chen Rong, who had tried to recruit him not long ago.
He looked at the other party lying on the slope, facing the sky, her eyes frozen. Su Mo seemed to be able to remember her sweet accent and warm smile.
At this moment, he could only feel the uncertainty of fate.
“Even if I become a Transcendent, it doesn’t mean that I’ll be safe. I need more power to protect myself and the people around me,” Su Mo clenched his fists and looked at the deep ravine not far away.
At this moment, a cough suddenly came from the side, “Now you should have experienced the power of a high-level sword saint, right? Don’t worry, work hard and cultivate. You’ll have the same power in the future.”
Su Mo turned his head and saw Xu Liushuang carrying a pile of things as he coughed and slowly walked over, “What is this?”
Facing Su Mo’s curious gaze, Xu Liushuang showed him the pile of things in his arms. They were silver-gray hook-like objects that looked sharp and incisive, just like a sword.
Moreover, Su Mo could feel a familiar pressure from these things.
“This is the remnant of the demon emperor’s body. It’s also the biggest harvest from this disaster,” Xu Liushuang explained patiently, “It’s very difficult for ordinary mirage demons to leave corpses behind here because of the different laws of the world. Only some special and high-level mirage demons have some special parts that will not easily degrade and can be preserved. The materials that will not easily degrade are also known as demon materials, one of the best materials for refining magic items.”
“It can be said that many of the magic items made by enchanters are made from demon materials. Of course, this doesn’t mean that mirage demons often come to our world. Most of the demon materials were obtained by high-level experts when they fought in the origin world. It’s very rare for low-level Transcendents like us to be able to harvest demon materials in battle. If we submit these materials, we should be able to exchange them for a lot of points, which can be considered as redeeming some of our losses.”
Thinking about the ten magic items that Xu Liushuang had detonated, Su Mo felt that even if he exchanged all of these demon materials for points, it would be difficult to make up for them.
“By the way, you mentioned that you wanted to join the Transcendent Professions Alliance last time, so have you?” Xu Liushuang asked.
Su Mo helplessly spread out his hands, “Something happened and I was interrupted.”
“You should still join them,” Xu Liushuang said slowly, “Compared to other mutual aid organizations, the sword saints are mostly aloof and quiet, but there are also some who are more enthusiastic. If you join the mutual aid organization, you’ll get more opportunities, be it invitations or missions. Moreover, don’t be fooled by Guardian Xu’s cold and emotionless appearance. In fact, he’s one of the easier ones to get along with among the sword saints. At the very least, when you ask him a question, he’ll patiently answer.”
“If you are afraid that the other party’s level is too high and it’s difficult to ask in real life, it would be easier to ask through the sword saint mutual aid group across the phone, and it would not be too offensive. You should take the chance since you have it. If you want to look for Guardian Xu after you join the group, remember that he’s the one with the most handsome profile picture.”
Hearing Xu Liushuang’s reminders, Su Mo suddenly came to a realization and hurriedly said, “I’m going to register and join the group now!”
Xu Liushuang smiled and nodded.
Seeing that all of the fox demons had been reduced to pus, Su Mo did not waste any time and immediately started to leave.
After Su Mo had walked far away, Chu Qingwu approached him and asked, “Is it really okay if you don’t tell him Guardian Xu’s account name directly?”
Xu Liushuang said helplessly, “Guardian Xu is more artistic and would change his account name from time to time, but he’s always using the green longsword as his profile picture. As long as it’s a Sword Saint, they should be able to recognize him immediately. After all, isn’t the sword the most handsome thing for a sword saint? How could he be mistaken?”
Chu Qingwu nodded and felt that this was reasonable.
Two hours later, after leaving the garrison building, Su Mo had a new group on his phone.
[Group name: Myriad Sword Sect, Qingyang Prefecture branch]
There were only 21 people in the group, including him.
It could be said that their numbers were very small.
After all, the entire Qingyang Prefecture had 23 cities under its jurisdiction.
Putting aside the two sword saints from Tianmu City, some cities did not even have a single sword saint.
Their numbers were indeed quite small.
It was no wonder that they would set up the organization at the prefecture level. If it had been like an ordinary city-level Transcendent mutual aid organization, there would probably only be one person in the group. If that was the case, why the hell was there a need for a mutual aid group?
That being said, even this prefecture-level group was quite deserted. Clearly, everyone was not as free as he had imagined.
It didn’t matter, though. After all, he had already heard from Xu Liushuang that Guardian Xu was easier to get along with.
“The account with the most handsome profile picture. The account with the most handsome profile picture,” Su Mo muttered as he looked at the profile pictures of the other 20 people.
When he saw one of the avatars, his eyes lit up, “As expected of Deacon Xu. I can indeed recognize such a handsome profile picture at a glance.”
Su Mo immediately tapped on the profile picture of a galaxy of stars, then sent a friendly message to the other party.
