Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 601 - 338: It Really Is an Immortal Palm_2

"Weren't you the one who captured me? You can kill or torture me as you please, but don't insult this Immortal." The Little Earth Immortal knelt down and said stubbornly.

"Was it really me who captured you?" Miemie asked.

The Little Earth Immortal hurriedly nodded and vividly demonstrated to Miemie how she grabbed him, stuffed him into a cage in an instant, and brought him here.

Miemie tilted her head and looked at the Little Earth Immortal for a while, then suddenly asked, "Zhang Ze? Do you know this person?"

"This..." The Little Earth Immortal was just about to say that this scoundrel was too familiar, but immediately stopped, because he suddenly realized that this woman seemed to have lost her memory.

Though he didn't know why, the opportunity could not be missed.

If this woman questioned him further and found out how valuable he was, then wouldn't he never escape, forever locked in here as her toy?

The Little Earth Immortal had great confidence in his own worth, after all, an Innate Tao Embryo's shell with a top-tier Artifact Spirit inside.

Even though most people couldn't see the value of the shell, and half of the Artifact Spirit inside was missing, he was still indestructible, able to be used as a hammer, wasn't he?

"I don't know this person! Never heard of him, who knows which monkey he came from... Please, good sister, release me. I'm just a toy, though I can talk, I'm really of no use at all." Having figured this out, the Little Earth Immortal immediately said with tears in his eyes.

"Really?" Miemie said.

"Really, I'm truly a toy," the Little Earth Immortal insisted.

Miemie sighed, since this little creature didn't know Zhang Ze, she might as well sell it directly.

Miemie raised her hand, and that family tree book appeared in her hand once more.

"Submit for points exchange, category... rare oddities."

However, moments later, five words appeared on the blank page.

[Loss-making item, not accepted]

"?" Miemie said.

"?" the Little Earth Immortal said.

The Little Earth Immortal truly thought himself to be valuable, which was one of the few things he could still take pride in.

So, he got agitated.

"That broken book of yours! Who are you calling a loss-making item! Come in, get in the cage, and your Earth Immortal Grandpa will spar with you today."

Like a little dog that had been provoked, the Little Earth Immortal hit the cage, barking wildly.

Miemie frowned, hastily covered it with a black cloth again, and then tossed the cage into the corner.

Listening to the breathing sounds from the cage, Miemie was a bit troubled.

With the preferences of the 'old guy,' if this thing had even a little use, it would always make her submit it.

Since it declared it was a loss-making item, then it truly had no use at all.

Miemie wanted to investigate the origins of the Little Earth Immortal, but remembering the 600 points she'd been scammed out of, she gave up the idea.

Using the old thing outside of tasks would cost points.

After pondering for a moment, Miemie made up her mind, uncovered the black cloth again, sealed the Little Earth Immortal's mouth with physical means, and walked out of the room with the cage.

"Take it to the auction house and see. This thing has eyes and a nose, can run and jump. It should at least sell for 500 Spirit Stones, right?"

...

Over at Thousand Mechanism Town.

Zhang Ze was ready to depart.

He planned to first go to Dragon Beard Pass to see if he could discover anything, and whether or not he gained anything, he would then head to the Northern Territory, to the heart of the Demon Race, to personally meet the daughter of an old acquaintance who was on a spring vacation.

This northbound journey to find his roots wasn't one he was undertaking alone. Besides his Junior Sister, also accompanying him were Li and Little Phoenix Rongrong.

Li stood beside Zhang Ze with a small backpack on her back, probably feeling uneasy, she moved the backpack in front of her and opened it for the fifth time today, carefully peering inside.

Inside the bag was a fiery red bird egg.

"Rongrong, are you okay?" Li asked as she looked at the bird egg.

"I'm fine, you're so annoying, I'm in seclusion, don't talk to me."

"Are you hungry? Seclusion requires eating."

"Do you think everyone is like you..."

Though it's hard to explain, this bird egg was indeed Rongrong.

Rongrong transformed into this form last night; according to her own account from inside the egg, she was advancing.

As for why she needed to turn into an egg and re-incubate herself for advancement, that was unknown.

The Junior Sister bent down to help Li tighten the backpack once more, then stuffed a piece of Refined Gold to stop Li's mouth, and rose to look at Zhang Ze and ask.

"Is it really okay to leave Little Earth Immortal's affair to Lily?"

"It's fine, Lily is quite reliable when it comes to handling things, let's go." He said, leading Chen Qin and Li as if they were a family of three towards the backyard of the Everywhere Pass Flying Ship travel agency.

Since it was a chartered flight, there were no outsiders on the Flying Ship.

But once aboard the ship, Zhang Ze suddenly changed his mind.

He recalled something, something quite important, especially for someone wanting to find his roots.

"Let's go check somewhere first and pick something up on the way."

"Where to? What to pick up?" Junior Sister asked.

"Dragon Tiger Mountain, the small Xiaotun Village near the Ancestral Master's Mausoleum. I want to see if my coffin is still there."

Zhang Ze rubbed his chin, looking towards Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Thinking back now, he felt his rising from the coffin might not have been so simple.

...

Dragon Beard Pass Auction House.

Though not as luxurious as Fried Shide, it's deeply rooted in heritage. Because Dragon Beard Pass is the junction of the East, West, and Northern Territories' Three Continents and also Everywhere Pass Headquarters, many medium and small capable figures come here for bargain trading without cessation.

This auction just started, and things like the Little Earth Immortal with unidentified origins are usually kept until the end as a sideshow.

With nothing to do, Miemie leaned in the corner, waiting for the Little Earth Immortal to be sold, and also waiting for the old things to send her a new task.
