C139

Even those old foxes and cunning foxes had been deceived by him.

Some people felt that this was not a simple matter, but in the end, this was only a child, and did not think that he had too many thoughts. Thus, they did not think about other things.

As long as the age of the Heaven's Gift was on par with Shentu Shentu, there was a 50% chance that the one who gave the Heaven's Gift was Shentu Shun. Thus, many people were even more nervous than the Heaven's Gift.

No matter what, being able to hide it from everyone, in terms of camouflage, it was already able to compete with these old monsters who had lived for over a hundred years.

Although he could successfully conceal the nervousness in his heart, this didn't make him give up on the age test, it still needed to be done immediately.

"Good friend, this is the age measuring mirror. You only need to face the mirror, and the mirror will naturally show your age!"

When Yin Xian said that the age test would be carried out, Tian Ci already knew the effects of this bronze mirror. Because he pretended to be depressed, he didn't say anything this time and was very quiet.

Because of Heaven's blessing's silence, Wang Heng did not speak this time. However, this time, he did something else and was always on his guard against Scarlet Cores.

When Tian Ci's heart was in a perturbed state towards the mirror, it was the same as the aptitude test. Some people were nervous, some people were worried, and some people did not care, but Chi Dan was not far away from Tian Ci and was staring at Wang Heng. To be more precise, he was staring at the copper mirror, but Wang Heng was guarding it, so it had to face Wang Heng first.

Arriving in front of the bronze mirror, Tian Ci did not dare to close his eyes, nor did he dare to show more of his emotions, because he could not let others see his nervousness. From this, he began to suspect and guess, because no matter what, he could not mess up before his age was tested.

In his nervousness, the copper mirror didn't make him wait for long. The mirror showed his age, and when he saw the age it indicated, he didn't dare to believe it. The nervousness in his heart was immediately replaced by joy.

However, there was no happiness on his face. Instead, he took a step back in disappointment. He turned around and looked at Yin Xian even more sorrowfully.

Fifteen, sixteen!

This was the age shown on the copper mirror!

It was the exact same age that Tian Ci had told the crowd. Although they didn't know why the copper mirror would reveal a situation where it didn't match his actual age, Tian Ci was certain that this matter was related to his senior brother.

It was unknown whether it was a coincidence or not, but after Tian Long pulled back the copper mirror, he didn't look at Su Liang, but stood right next to Su Liang. He stood right next to Yin Xian, as if he wanted to block Yin Xian's line of sight, and Chi Dan stood right in front of Su Liang, just in time to see the information displayed on the mirror.

Chi Dan obviously knew the true age of his partner after spending five years with him. However, when he saw that the age displayed on the copper mirror didn't match up to his partner's actual age, he could guess the reason. However, he was still angry.

As everyone knew, Shentu Shun was between the ages of thirteen and fourteen. The age of his Heavenly Gift Test was between the ages of fifteen and sixteen. It had to be angry. If it wasn't angry, then everyone would think that the news it sold in Songyu City was false.

But right now, its companion definitely would not speak of the truth. It had to be angry, and if it was not angry, then it would not have an excuse to take away the copper mirror again.

It was all for its own innocence. It was all for stealing the copper mirror. Therefore, it was angry.

"How is this possible?"

"This is impossible!"

"This stinking brat is clearly only thirteen years old, but this broken mirror must be broken. No, This King will throw it away!"

He was just able to successfully take away the crystal, but because Wang Heng did not expect it, he was not prepared for it. Now, Chi Dan also saw that Wang Heng was constantly guarding against it.

The truth was indeed like that, Wang Heng was indeed careless when the crystal was stolen just now, but this time he was prepared. During the test, one of his hands never left the bronze mirror.

When he heard that Chi Dan was going to throw away the copper mirror again, he immediately opened his storage ring as fast as he could and put away the age measuring mirror. But before he could put away the copper mirror, he flew out.

Chi Dan originally wanted to repeat the same trick, but this Wang Heng's protection was too tight.

However, with the copper mirror in Wang Heng's hand, it could be said that Wang Heng had the absolute advantage in obtaining it. Unless his speed was comparable to Wang Heng's when he was collecting the copper mirror, he would not be able to get the copper mirror.

In order to be faster than Wang Heng in collecting the copper mirror, Chi Dan did not have full confidence in winning, so he could only warn Wang Heng on purpose, and wait for Wang Heng to concentrate on collecting the copper mirror before attacking Wang Heng.

This was the territory of the Hollow Jade Sect, directly attacking Wang Heng. This was too brazen, even the Crimson Core had a sense of propriety. Naturally, it would not attack, but would use its own body to ram against him.

Wang Heng flew out. Chi Dan did not care about whether Wang Heng was injured or not, seeing that the small mirror flew out, he immediately chased after it. Just as he was about to grab the mirror, the mirror was wrapped by a wave of energy and flew away.

He stretched out his right hand and released a yellow stream of light, wrapping around the copper mirror that was flying far away. He quickly pulled it back, and the copper mirror quickly flew towards him and landed in his hand.

Seeing that it was Yin Xian, Chi Dan knew that he had been careless.

Wang Heng was the only one who was wary of it. It only came to its senses after Yin Xian took the age measuring mirror away from it. At the same time, it also understood that before its companion joined the sect, it was still just a guest and could not be too presumptuous.

Yin Xian originally did not want to make a move, but seeing that Wang Heng was sent flying by Chi Dan, he could only make a move. If he did not make a move now, the copper mirror would really fall into Chi Dan's hands.

No one had expected that when the crystal fell into the hands of Chi Dan, the crowd would think that the Hollow Jade Sect was being careless. However, if the copper mirror also fell into the hands of Chi Dan, there would always be some people who would think that the Hollow Jade Sect was an incompetent person that would ruin the reputation of the Hollow Jade Sect.

However, snatching Chi Dan's flesh from his mouth in front of everyone was tantamount to slapping Chi Dan's face. If he did not explain, Chi Dan would definitely lose face; after all, Chi Dan was still a guest of the sect, and Yin Xian could not let him lose face.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Chi Dan, this age measuring mirror was created by the third generation ancestor of our sect, senior Gong Qiu, who is a famous craftsman of the Sky Cracking Sect. It has been in the sect for more than 6,000 years, I didn't expect it to be broken today."

"However, this is, after all, a work left behind by Senior Zi Gongqiu. Even if it's broken, you can't throw it away. My sect appreciates Fellow Chi Dan's good intentions. We won't trouble you this time."

Dammit, this shitty mirror has a history of six thousand years. What a treasure! It definitely can sell for a lot of Spirit Stones. What a pity!" Chi Dan didn't care about face at all, and he didn't need Yin Xian to give him face. When he found out the origin of the age measuring mirror, he was a little dissatisfied that he couldn't get his hands on the mirror.

"Haha, no wonder this age measuring mirror looks a little familiar to This King. So it's the work of Brother Zi Gong Qiu. I almost threw away the treasure forged by an old friend. This King was reckless."

It would have been fine if Yin Xian didn't know about Chi Dan's origins, but he did know a little about him. Chi Dan was not some old monster, and to call himself a brother with a six thousand years of experience like Zi Gong Qiu, he had to do it on his own. He was worried that Chi Dan would lose his face, but it was not easy to expose him, so he could only twitch the corner of his mouth.

However, Chi Dan acted as if he didn't see it and continued, "Sigh, Fellow Yin Xian, you don't know? Speaking of which, I have not seen Brother Zi, Gong Qiu, for many years!"

"In the past, when This King was young, he roamed the four seas and became friends with Zi Jiuqiu at first sight. He became a good brother after paying respects to him, and he even specially forged a bronze mirror and a formal robe for This King."

"Sigh, back then, when I was young and in high spirits, I always thought that when demons are alive, I had to do something earth-shattering in order to not have lived in vain. But when Brother Gong Gong Gong Qiu was obsessed with artifact forging, he always thought that as a disciple of a sect, he should report to the sect, and this prince and Brother Zi Gong Qiu's path is different. After living together for a few years, I have left!"

"Back then, This King swore that he would not do anything major and would never go see him. In the end, This King did it. When Brother Tzu Qiu passed away, This King did not go back to see him one last time!"

"Sigh, 2,000 years ago, when This King underwent his tribulation of lightning, I had no chance of surviving. In the end, it was still Brother Zi Qiu who made me a bronze mirror that blocked the final lightning tribulation and saved my life. It's a pity that This King failed his tribulation and the bronze mirror forged by Brother Gong Qiu was also destroyed."

"This King was lucky not to die, but woke up from my stupor and felt that Brother Zi, Gong Qiu, was blessed by the heavens to protect me. Brother Zi, Gong Qiu really treated me well, but when Brother Gong Qiu passed away, I didn't go and see him. I let him down!"

"After waking up, This King has always felt guilty. To commemorate my brother, This King searched everywhere for my brother's masterpiece. I had wanted to bring the treasure to mourn at the grave after finding the treasure, but after two thousand years, This King was still unable to find one."

"This king's greatest regret in my life is that I was unable to find a piece of Brother Zi Gong Qiu's work. I never thought that I would be able to find one in the sect."

"Fellow Taoist Yin Xian, now that the age measuring mirror is broken, why don't you give it to me? Let me bring the age measuring mirror to pay my respects to Brother Gong Qiu to make up for the regret in my heart, okay?"

Yin Xian knew that the Scarlet Core must have a motive for making up this story. As expected, since he couldn't steal the Scarlet Core, he decided to change the method to get the age measuring mirror.
