Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health-Chapter 426 - 192: Heaven’s Execution Draws Near! Heaven’s Execution Draws Near!

Chapter 426: Chapter 192: Heaven’s Execution Draws Near! Heaven’s Execution Draws Near!

The speed of the majestic dragon in the sky over the Sea of Eternal Life had slowed down significantly.

Of course, that’s when compared to land travel; it’s still much faster than a fishing boat. Moreover, traveling through the air avoids many of the hazards on the sea, making the journey much smoother.

The Sea of Eternal Life is a land where opportunities and risks coexist.

Along the way, Fan Wubing saw many fleets: some struck it rich overnight by encountering large schools of Spirit Fish, while others encountered tribulation clouds left by a great power’s failed ascension, turning to dust in an instant. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Treasures abound, crises abound.

The four of them sometimes became "pirates," suddenly swooping down from the sky to snatch treasures and then leaving without a trace. At other times, they turned into "heroes," appearing just in time to help fleets in distress.

Though it was said to be a group of four, it was mostly Luo Qingyao and Guan Xin who did the work.

Fan Wubing hardly had a chance to make a move.

Luo Qingyao had quite the "youthful arrogance," whether it was robbing others’ treasures or saving lives, she always left with the line, "I am the Star-Plucking Sword Hero!"

Why the name Star-Plucking Sword Hero?

Because she learned that besides the Flying Sword Peach Blossom, her senior brother also had a close-handled long sword named Zhiyue.

How could she not come up with an equivalent name?

You point to the moon, so I’ll pluck the stars.

Moreover, she declared that even when she becomes a Sword Immortal, or a Great Sword Immortal, she would still use the title "Star-Plucking!"

For a time, the fame of the Star-Plucking Sword Hero spread among many fleets.

They described it like this, "In a flash, a dark green sword shadow swept through, instantly freezing the aura, halting the great pathways. When eyes opened again, the treasure (or crisis) was gone, leaving only the echo, ’I am the Star-Plucking Sword Hero.’"

As for why Guan Xin followed Luo Qingyao around.

This must be traced back to an event shortly after they departed.

That day, they were passing over from the sky when they encountered a fleet trapped in a storm of aura, on the verge of having its defenses breached by the storm.

Guan Xin, who came from Wenxin Heaven, had studied classics like "Settle oneself and secure the world" from a young age.

Just like previously on Snow Mountain, she was determined to save everyone and couldn’t just stand by.

However, with her current level of cultivation, saving people on the Sea of Eternal Life was impossible on her own, so she had to seek help from Fan Wubing and Luo Qingyao.

Then, Luo Qingyao played a trick. She said to Guan Xin, "Saving people takes effort too. I’m not some great philanthropist; why should I save people for no reason? Since they chose to come to the Sea of Eternal Life seeking treasure, they should be prepared for danger, right?"

Guan Xin asked, "What do you want? I can give it to you."

Luo Qingyao, being a young lady, wasn’t lacking anything. She laughed and said, "Accompany me for a robbery, and I’ll help you save people once."

This put Guan Xin into a massive moral dilemma.

She was someone who would give up her cultivation to save the world.

The thought of robbing conflicted greatly with her principles.

But, if she didn’t act soon, the fleet trapped in the storm would perish.

All things considered, she concluded that robbery wouldn’t result in deaths, but ignoring the fleet would cost many lives.

So, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

This was the first time Fan Wubing saw her show an expression other than a "blank face."

In fact, Luo Qingyao was just teasing her and didn’t really intend to force her into robbery. But she thoroughly upheld her "true to her word" principle. If she said one robbery for one rescue, she had to do it.

This led to an awkward situation.

To ensure enough "rescue opportunities," Guan Xin had to urge Luo Qingyao into robbery.

In the end, she turned into the mastermind behind the robberies.

That day, Guan Xin sat nearby, diligently planning the next robbery on scratch paper, looking as earnest as if she were studying the Holy Sage Book.

Seeing this, Fan Wubing stealthily said to Luo Qingyao, "You’re really quite a wicked woman."

Luo Qingyao said aggrievedly, "How could I have known she’d be so single-minded! I clearly said we could save people without robbing, but she wouldn’t listen! Maybe she’s gotten addicted!" Miss Luo clutched her head and said, "Ugh... I feel like she’s corrupting me. I didn’t even want to rob."

Fan Wubing wiped his brow, "Who’s corrupting whom! You’re the one who opened Pandora’s box!"

"Pandora’s box?"

"You wouldn’t understand even if I told you, forget it."

"How about, senior brother, you try persuading her?" Luo Qingyao said with a pout, "I don’t want to rob, but she keeps dragging me along."

Over there, Guan Xin finished her plan and walked over with a smile,

"Here’s my plan for the next robbery, see if it’s good."

Luo Qingyao turned her head and blinked hard at Fan Wubing.

Fan Wubing said helplessly, "You’re adults, don’t tell me I still have to clean up after you."

Guan Xin looked puzzled at Luo Qingyao, "Clean up? But you’re in the Integration Realm, do you even need to use the bathroom? And, need someone’s help?"

"..." Luo Qingyao turned red and didn’t know how to explain, she could only glare at Fan Wubing, "Senior brother, you have to take responsibility for what you say!" Then she ran off to find comfort with Xianchan.

The person who reads the Holy Sage Book like this hasn’t heard this idiom.

Fan Wubing said to Guan Xin, "Ahem, I discussed with Qingyao, and we’ve decided to go for a big one."

"Big one?"

"Yes, to pull off a grand robbery, which counts for a hundred rescue attempts!" Fan Wubing’s eyes shined intensely, "So, are you tempted?"
