Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 715 - 375: Humble Service Online

Tang looked at the portrait on the city wall, awkwardly smiling while trying to think of an excuse.

"Well, you see, it's a long story..."

According to Tang, when he came here years ago, this Bear Pass was still called Heroic Pass, and it wasn't guarded by these laid-back chubby bears.

It was the Liushan White Wolf clan from Sister Wang's lineage.

Tang had nothing better to do back then, so he defied the White Emperor's Alliance and sneaked into the Northern Territory to explore Demon Race massage secret techniques.

He accidentally, maybe on purpose, wandered over to Heroic Pass, intending to investigate the Wolf Race sister's techniques there.

Tang's plan was meticulous, taking advantage of the spring break of the three Demon Venerables. Unexpectedly, Sister Wang wasn't in White Emperor City but near Heroic Pass, nearly causing a disaster.

The Liushan Wolf Race withdrew from Heroic Pass afterward, replaced by this chubby bear clan.

The wanted poster was put up by the Liushan White Wolf clan back then, and the only reason it's still there is that the lazy bears couldn't be bothered to take it down.

Zhang Ze, looking at Tang with sunglasses and a disguised appearance, asked perplexed.

"It's been so long, and there's no Liushan Wolf Race here anymore, why still wear sunglasses?"

"No more Wolf Race, but there are still chubby bears, right? Because of that broken wanted poster, I'm quite famous around here. If I go out in my original appearance, there's always some chubby bear asking for an autograph."

"You know, kid, this Taoist is allergic to chubby bears."

Zhang Ze, "..."

"Alright then." Zhang Ze commented dryly, "I'm leaving, take care, Taoist."

"Hmm, you take care too, kid."

...

Half a two-hour later, Zhang Ze once again activated the skill [First Thing Out is Going Home]

He returned to Heroic Pass.

Upon returning to Bear Pass, he discovered Tang was nowhere to be seen, and in his place was Bai Tao waiting for him.

"Where's the Taoist?" Zhang Ze asked.

"Got caught by the chubby bears." Bai Tao said while sucking on a popsicle, handing a jade scroll to Zhang Ze, "I was going to find you, but it's good that you're back. Here, take this."

"What's this?" Zhang Ze asked.

"It's the interrogation record of the Snow Leopard." Bai Tao said, "That Snow Leopard has been taken to the Great Wall, and this is the preliminary interrogation result."

Zhang Ze, "So fast?"

"Yeah." Bai Tao nodded, "Just that fast, thanks to that broken hand turning into a Snow Leopard."

"Snow Leopards are beasts too. Old Sect Leader Li used the Beast Taming Sect's secret techniques to establish a link, supplemented by the Celestial Calculation Disc and your Profound Identification Treasure Mirror, plus the dream woven by the Celestial Sect cultivators, that broken hand was thoroughly deceived."

"Now those old geezers are acting in the dream with that broken hand to get information out of it."

"But for now, all they can extract are these superficial memories about that leg. Anyway, see for yourself." Bai Tao said.

Zhang Ze gripped the jade scroll, input his divine sense, and scenes of psychedelic images appeared before him.

He was moving through a Demon Race city from the first-person perspective of a Snow Leopard. The city was empty, showing no signs of the recent catastrophe.

As the perspective shifted, he entered an abandoned building, turned a corner, and saw a large fur leg leaning against a stone pillar.

It looked like a spy rendezvous, except the contacts were a Snow Leopard and a leg.

The scene had no sound, and the leg didn't have a mouth, so lip-reading wasn't possible. However, thanks to the little monk's occasional appearance in the scene, it was known that the hand and the leg were discussing ways to enter White Emperor City, exchanging information.

They seemed trapped in this city, with the choice to leave but unable to advance toward White Emperor City once they did.

At that time, the Extreme North Icefield seemed to have some kind of rules.

Rules centered around these cities.

That's where useful information ends. The scene then became cliché, with the leg deciding the hand was useless and launching an ambush to capture it.

The hand was prepared but severely wounded due to the little monk's betrayal and had to flee in a sorry state.

The scene abruptly ended there.

Zhang Ze rubbed his chin, exited the scene projected by the jade scroll, but didn't speak. Instead, he started spacing out.

Well, actually, he wasn't spacing out; Zhang Ze was booting the system.

Not sure whether it had taken in water or was sulking from being unused for too long, but the system was a bit sluggish, and Zhang Ze took quite a while just to get it running.

After canceling pop-ups and clicking the red dot repeatedly to metaphorically massage the system's psyche, Zhang Ze seized the moment, entering the exchange interface in the split second when old pop-ups disappeared and new ones were about to appear.

"It's ridiculous, who uses a system requiring strategy and speed?"

"Stupid thing, whoever made you, I'm going to file a serious complaint." He grumbled for a while. Before the system could intentionally crash, Zhang Ze quickly flipped through the pages to find the spell he wanted.

"Where did that thing go?" Due to not using it for a long time, Zhang Ze was somewhat rusty when he suddenly opened it.

The reason Zhang Ze didn't use it wasn't that he forgot, but because lately, he found the system less effective than his skin's thickness.

Since the Six Sects had decided to collaborate, now when he wanted to learn new spells, he just had to act cute and friendly with the brothers, sisters, grandpas, and grandmas of the Six Sects.

After mastering the Spirit Fusion Technique, Zhang Ze also learned methods to fuse and deduce spells outside the system, which was much faster than tinkering alone within the system's bounds.

Outside, he could practice and seek external help at the same time.
