World's First Tower, main hall.
"Reporting to Sect Master, Hall Master Lin has arrived!”The maid said to Xiong Ba.
He waved his hand." Okay, I got it. You can leave first!”Xiong Ba replied.
The maid left and Xiong Ba turned around," Lin 'er, do you know why I called you here?”
"I don't know!" Jin Lin said.
Although Jin Lin knew Xiong Ba's goal, he couldn't say it out loud. Unless he didn't want to live anymore, he wouldn't say what Xiong Ba was thinking.
Accompanying a king was like accompanying a tiger. This sentence was not casually said. This was something that predecessors had experienced through countless real cases.
Even though Xiong Ba wasn't the most powerful person in the world, based on the current strength of the World Association, even the most powerful leader of the martial arts world would find it hard to compare to him.
"Lin 'er, look at the words on this plaque.”Xiong Ba pointed at the two vertical boards beside him and said to Jin Lin," Golden scales are not something that can be found in a pond. Once they encounter a storm, they will turn into dragons! Lin 'er, do you understand the meaning behind it?”
"Forgive me for being stupid, but may I ask what Master means by these two sentences?”
Jin Lin pretended not to know anything.
"These two sentences were the life motto of the world's number one fortune teller, the clay Bodhisattva, for me. However, the clay Bodhisattva once said that this was only the first half of my life!”
"The first half of my life? What about the rest of your life?"
"I don't know!"
Xiong Ba shook his head and sat on the high chair as he spoke to Jin Lin.
"Why?" Jin Lin asked.
"Sigh, ever since the clay Bodhisattva gave me his words, he disappeared and left behind an item called the Heaven and Earth Shifting Five Elements Treasure Box for me to decipher. However, there are a total of 108 sets of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches on this box. If I want to break this treasure box, I have to put the 108 sets of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches into a formation to restore it before the treasure box can be successfully opened. However, I have already deciphered it for ten years and the treasure box still hasn't been opened. Now, I have run out of patience, so Lin 'er..." I want you to find the clay Bodhisattva!”
Xiong Ba told Jin Lin about the past. These things weren't secrets, so he wasn't afraid to let Jin Lin know.
On the contrary, if he didn't let Jin Lin know, it would be bad. Jin Lin had been intelligent since he was young. If anything was hidden from Jin Lin, Jin Lin would feel it. Xiong Ba was afraid that it would backfire, so it was better to directly explain it to Jin Lin. This way, Jin Lin could also work for him seriously.
"I see. But Master, where is the clay Bodhisattva now?”Jin Lin nodded and asked Xiong Ba.
"I heard that the Mud Bodhisattva was punished by the heavens because she revealed too much of the heavenly secrets. Her body is covered in poisonous sores and needs a fire monkey to suck out the poison. Therefore, if you want to find the Mud Bodhisattva, you must first seize the fire monkey.”
Xiong Ba told Jin Lin everything he knew!
"Alright, Master. I understand. I'll set off now to find the Mud Bodhisattva! This disciple will take his leave!"
After saying that, Jin Lin exited World's First Pavilion. The moment Jin Lin stepped out of the door, a system notification sounded in his mind!
"Ding! Main mission released: Find the Mud Bodhisattva!”
[Mission Introduction: To find the Mud Bodhisattva, you must first seize the Fire Monkey. Ten years have passed and the Storyline is about to officially begin. Please help Xiong Ba find the Mud Bodhisattva and speed up the development of the Storyline.]
[Mission time: 7 days!]
[Mission Reward: Silent Sword, 1 diamond draw]
[Mission Punishment: None]
[Mission status: Accepted!]
Hearing the system's voice in his mind, Jin Lin asked curiously,""System, why did the main mission suddenly appear this time?”
Apart from the first time when Golden Qilin had just joined the World Association, he had received a main mission. The rest of the missions were all side missions. The main mission rewards were rich, but they never appeared. Golden Qilin had no way to deal with the system. Originally, Golden Qilin thought that it would be a side mission this time, but he did not expect it to become a main mission.
"Reporting to host, after the official start of the storyline, the main mission will appear. As for when the main mission will be released, I don't know!”the System Wizard replied.
"Alright then!"
Jin Lin nodded and did not ask any more questions. He quickly left The World's First Pavilion and prepared to leave the World Association to find the Mud Bodhisattva!
....
In the main hall of the World's First Pavilion.
"Sect Master, didn't you plan to let Young Master Shuang and Young Master Yun go look for the mud Buddha? Why did it change to Young Master Lin this time?”Wen Chouchou walked out from behind the screen and asked Xiong Ba.
Turning his head to look at Wen Chouchou, Xiong Ba said solemnly,""Lin 'er is meticulous, intelligent, and more importantly, his martial arts are powerful. Therefore, Lin' er is the best candidate for the search for the clay Bodhisattva!”
Of course, although Xiong Ba said so, he didn't think so in his heart. The reason why Xiong Ba could change his mind this time was because of the Golden Qilin. As for what the relationship was, he would mention it in the future.
"Chouchou, go and call that Duan Lang over!”
After pondering for a while, Xiong Ba suddenly spoke to Wen Chouchou.
"Broken Wave? I wonder why Sect Master called Duan Lang?" Wen Chouchou was puzzled.
Frowning, Xiong Ba said sternly," Just go if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?!"”
"Yes, Chouchou will go now!"
Wen Chouchou was shocked by Xiong Ba and quickly disappeared from his sight.
Seeing Wen Chouchou disappear, Xiong Ba whispered,""Jin Lin, oh Jin Lin, don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame your talent for being too terrifying. If I don't suppress you, I'm afraid that I won't be able to keep my position as the leader of the World Association."
