Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1092: Chapter 677 Noble_3 Chapter 1092: Chapter 677 Noble_3 Mo Hua denied it: “How is that possible?”

Gu Changhuai knew that if Mo Hua really intended to give him the runaround, not a single word that came out of his mouth would be truthful, so he didn’t bother to question further and directly asked:

“What realm, what name, what did he do?”

Mo Hua said: “Foundation Building Middle Stage, nicknamed ‘Crossing River Dragon’. I only know for sure he has killed people, I don’t know anything else…”

“Why don’t you, Uncle Gu, flip through the records at Taoist Court and see what other bad things he’s done?”

Gu Changhuai fell silent.

At this moment, he felt like Mo Hua was the “Supervisor”, while he was an “Enforcement Leader” working for Mo Hua…

But Gu Changhuai was helpless; he could only go through the archives himself.

Mo Hua waited patiently.

After a while, Gu Changhuai replied:

“He has done quite a few bad things, killed people on a mountain, robbed at a ferry crossing, trafficked forbidden pills…”

“Has he ever trafficked cultivators?” asked Mo Hua.

Gu Changhuai said: “I haven’t found that kind of evidence…”

Mo Hua was righteously indignant: “This person is too evil!”

Then he added: “I think he should be worth at least a thousand Merit Points!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Changhuai was infuriated.

This little brat, Mo Hua, seemed to have his calculative game planned so well, even the Dao Court in Qianxue State Boundary could hear it.

“Are you trying to set your own price?” Gu Changhuai said displeased.

Mo Hua argued justly: “It’s not setting a price, it’s calling for the punishment of the wicked and the promotion of the good!”

“Shouldn’t the Taoist Court give additional Merit Points and praise the ‘good deed’ for taking on the bounty with my peers to punish the evildoer?”

“Punishing the wicked and promoting the good!”

Gu Changhuai was speechless.

Is that what you call a little?

Asking for a lion’s share, a whopping one thousand points right from the start.

Gu Changhuai said: “Five hundred.”

Mo Hua was shocked: “Uncle Gu, who ‘haggles’ like you? Cutting half in one stroke?”

Even though he did the same…

“Nine hundred!”

Mo Hua took a step back.

“Five hundred!”

Gu Changhuai did not play the game according to Mo Hua’s scheme, holding on to the price firmly, not willing to budge.

“Eight hundred!”

“Five hundred and ten.”

Mo Hua helplessly said, “Uncle Gu, you’re being too stingy…”

The Supervisor of the Dao Court, adding ten Merit Points at a time, didn’t seem to mind losing face.

Gu Changhuai was unmoved, “This is to let you understand, Merit Points are hard to come by, every single point is very precious.”

Mo Hua huffed: “It’s not like I haven’t taken on bounties before, how could I not be clear about the price of a Sin Cultivator at Foundation Building Middle Stage?”

“At least seven hundred and fifty!”

“Five hundred and twenty…”

…

After a round of “bargaining”, Mo Hua finally settled the bounty at “six hundred Merit Points.”

Plus, if there were other Sin Cultivators traveling with him or significant related clues, there would be an additional price.

Mo Hua gave a nod, only then reluctantly agreeing.

Six hundred points, split between five people for the bounty, came out to one hundred and twenty points each.

It was so-so.

One hundred or so points wasn’t a lot, but it was the best he could manage.

Afterward, Mo Hua and Gu Changhuai began to “conspire” on how to issue this bounty and how to get it into Mo Hua’s hands.

“Tomorrow night at 1 a.m., right on schedule, the Taoist Court will issue the bounty, with added conditions: Foundation Establishment Early Stage, Second Grade Array Master, Water Prison Technique, and Concealment Technique, these four.”

“You move fast, if someone else takes it, don’t blame me.”

Gu Changhuai sent a message to Mo Hua.

Then he added:

“Also, remember, delete this message afterwards, don’t leave any handles.”

Mo Hua nodded again and again, replying to Gu Changhuai:

“Don’t worry, Uncle Gu, I’m familiar with this, won’t leave any ‘evidence’ for you!”

Gu Changhuai: “…”

This kid, talking as if I’m covering up a crime for him…

Gu Changhuai sighed and then ignored Mo Hua.

Mo Hua noted Gu Changhuai’s information and then indeed erased it.

Not only removing the Magnetic Ink and Unfixed Magnetic Patterns, but even the Secondary Thunder Pattern was eliminated.

Mo Hua was quite the “professional” at this kind of thing.

The next day, at 1 p.m., Mo Hua didn’t even practice his Formation but rather held the Taixu Token early, focusing hard and staring at the tasks inside the “Bounty Scroll.”

There were countless Original Magnet pictorial bounty entries in the Bounty Scroll.

At exactly 1:15 p.m., a new entry suddenly gleamed into existence.

With extremely keen Divine Sense, Mo Hua found the words “Water Prison Technique”, “Concealment Technique”, “Array Master”… and others in one single moment.

He swept his Divine Sense over it like a dragonfly skimming the surface and also found the words “Crossing River Dragon.”

That’s it!

After confirming, Mo Hua, “quick to see and quick to act”, instantly clicked to apply, while Gu Changhuai, seeing the name “Mo Hua”, also instantly approved it.

The bounty entry had just appeared when it disappeared once again.

At the same time, there were many Taixu Gate disciples at Foundation Building Middle and Later Stages, eyeing bounties in the Taixu Token like wolves after meat, catching a glimpse of this new bounty. Before they had a chance to look, it was gone, leaving them all bewildered.

“What’s going on? Wasn’t that a new bounty?”

“I didn’t even get to see it, why is it gone?”

“Damn it, who was it? How could they be so fast…not just that, with such swift Divine Sense… I blinked, and it was snatched away…”
