To Chi Xiu's surprise, Lou Gao was eating noodles.
He seemed startled by his own action of kicking the door, spitting out noodles like a shower of flowers.
"You brat—"
Lou Gao slammed his bowl on the table, about to explode in anger, but then suddenly seemed to remember something, his old face instantly softening.
He spoke in a tone a hundred times gentler than before:
"Why make a second mask? Did Bibi Dong recognize you?"
Chi Xiu exhaled and walked in.
"No, don't ask any more questions, just do as I say."
He pulled up a chair and sat down, saying, "Also, you can't tell anyone anything you've learned from me, otherwise you can use your dentures to gnaw open the remaining meteorite stone yourself."
"You little vampire—"
Lou Gao gritted his teeth.
Chi Xiu immediately glared: "Huh?! What did you call me?!"
"Master Chi! Can I call you Grandpa?!"
Lou Gao rushed forward with a terrified expression, bowing and scraping with a fawning smile.
If his disciples saw this scene, their expressions would probably be exactly the same as the black-robed man from before.
"Do it! Do it right now! I'll work overtime, even if it means skipping meals, to get it done for you!"
Lou Gao was instantly filled with passion.
Chi Xiu yawned: "Hurry up..."
He sat in his chair, tilting his head back, Qian Renxue's beautiful face still lingering in his mind.
His lips were a little sore from Qian Renxue's kiss; he had been so lost in the moment that he didn't know how her boneless flesh could unleash such strong aggression.
Fortunately, considering the situation, Chi Xiu restrained himself in time, otherwise he might have torn Qian Renxue's dress to shreds on the spot.
...
Five days later.
For five days straight, Chi Xiu didn't return. He and Lou Gao worked day and night, finally completing the second mask, this time entirely gold.
Chi Xiu changed into new clothes and stored the golden mask in his storage device.
Just as he was about to leave, Lou Gao, sporting dark circles under his eyes, approached.
"Did you do something earth-shattering before you came here...?"
Chi Xiu was somewhat bewildered: "What happened?"
Lou Gao took a deep breath, glanced at Chi Xiu's storage device, and said uncomfortably, "At first, I thought making the mask gold would be too eye-catching, too high-profile. But after going out for a while, I realized I was wrong..." "
What happened? Will you die if you don't become a riddle teller?!"
"Go out and see for yourself. It's probably even more serious in Tian Dou City..."
Lou Gao shrank back in fear when he saw Chi Xiu's anger.
He hadn't seen Chi Xiu for almost six years, and only now did he realize that Chi Xiu not only held his life in his hands, but his cultivation level was almost superior to his.
The terrifying force of that hammer swing…
hiss—
…
After leaving the Blacksmith's Guild, Chi Xiu stood on the street, looking around at the street, which seemed almost no different from usual.
He was completely bewildered; what had happened?
Just then, Chi Xiu saw a young man wearing a golden mask calmly walk past him…
And that wasn't all. Just as Chi Xiu was staring blankly at that person, another young man wearing a golden mask walked out from one direction!
Chi Xiu walked down the street with wide eyes, and within just ten minutes, he saw three young men wearing identical golden masks.
What the hell? Is wearing a golden mask a trend now?
After arriving in Tian Dou City,
Chi Xiu stood on the street, dumbfounded.
Almost every teenager passing by was wearing a golden mask, and some were even wearing the kind of golden tuxedos from the masquerade social event. Holy
crap!
Chi Xiu had just walked towards a teahouse by the roadside when he turned his head and saw an even more outrageous scene.
A young man was wearing a golden mask, a golden tuxedo, and a number tag on his body.
The number tag read 0000!
Chi Xiu swallowed hard and couldn't help but step forward to stop the young man.
"Brother, where did you get this outfit?"
The young man looked Chi Xiu up and down, especially glancing at the black mask on Chi Xiu's face, and made a series of "tsk tsk tsk" sounds.
"Trash!"
he scoffed, turning to leave.
Chi Xiu's temper flared instantly. He pulled the young man back, frowning, "Why are you calling me trash for no reason?"
The young man pulled Chi Xiu's hand away, disdainfully patting his gold tuxedo as if Chi Xiu had dirtied it.
"If you're not trash, then who is? At least people imitating 0000 know to wear a gold mask. You, on the other hand, can't even tell colors apart, you just wore a black mask."
Chi Xiu was bewildered.
"Imitating… 0000?! How do you know 0000?"
"No, no, no, don't touch my clothes, stay away from me, you trash don't deserve to be my companion!"
The young man finished speaking and left disdainfully, swaggering down the street as if wearing that skin was something to be proud of.
Chi Xiu, a smirk playing on his lips, arrived at a roadside teahouse. The teahouse owner, who had witnessed the entire incident, smiled and invited Chi Xiu to sit down.
"Young man, you're from out of town, aren't you?"
Chi Xiu paused for a moment, then nodded. "Yes... from Gengxin City."
"Huh? You should have heard of it by now."
The teahouse owner asked doubtfully, serving Chi Xiu tea.
"I haven't left the house for five days, so I'm not sure. Could you tell me about it?"
Since there was no business around, the teahouse owner sat down directly opposite Chi Xiu.
"Five days ago, the Spirit Hall held a grand event, a masquerade social gathering! Ever heard of it?"
Chi Xiu took a sip of tea and nodded repeatedly. "I have." "
During that masquerade social gathering, a legendary young man emerged!"
The teahouse owner draped a towel over his shoulders, vividly describing the event to Chi Xiu with his hands and mouth.
"This young man's number is 0000, and he's no ordinary person!"
"He can control six elements—water, fire, thunder, wind, and light—each one at the level of a Title Douluo!"
Chi Xiu nodded with a smile, listening to the teahouse owner's praise with great interest.
"He also has a martial soul, that guy, amazing!"
"It's a red sword! Anyway... anyway, it's incredibly powerful. I... I don't know how to describe it to you, and I doubt you'd understand anyway."
Chi Xiu twitched his lips upon hearing
this. The next moment, he immediately smiled apologetically, "Then please say something I can understand. I'm not very worldly... sorry."
"It's alright, I'll continue. You know, this kid is so powerful, he should be famous throughout the entire Douluo Continent by now."
"Yes, yes, that makes sense."
Chi Xiu nodded vigorously.
"Moreover, the masquerade social event only invited people from sects and academies, but after the event, the Spirit Hall discovered that they couldn't find any information about this person!"
"Even on the day of the award ceremony, Pope Bibi Dong accepted the award on his behalf."
"Afterwards, the news spread wider and wider, but 0000 himself just wouldn't show his face. Can you believe it? I don't know what he was thinking."
Chi Xiu frowned and chimed in, "Is this guy missing a screw?
If he showed up, how much of a show-off would he have to put on!" The teahouse owner immediately slammed his fist on the table, "Yeah! I think this kid's not normal! If he showed up, he'd be revered by thousands!"
The owner then frowned again, "But some people have analyzed that he might not actually belong to any sect or academy; he might have just sneaked into the masquerade social event."
"Hearing that such a genius had no affiliation, all the sects and academies on the continent were incredibly excited, and they all rushed to find this 0000 himself."
The teahouse owner seemed thirsty as he said this, and snatched Chi Xiu's water cup to take a sip.
He continued, "That's why so many fakes have appeared now. Some have discovered a business opportunity, some have found a way to obtain resources for the cultivation chain, some even use it to pick up girls, and some simply idolize this legendary 0000..."
"Now, if you see someone wearing a golden mask on the street, you know they're a fake. It's become rampant."
Chi Xiu swallowed hard.
He then turned around, took off his black mask, and quickly put on the golden one.
"Boss, do I look like 0000?"
Chi Xiu smiled and made a peace sign. The teahouse
owner glanced at him disdainfully: "You? You're so new to this, you can't even catch the crap yet."
Chi Xiu: "..."
The teahouse owner took a big gulp of tea and said wistfully, "I heard there's someone in the Soto Grand Arena who looks a lot like 0000 himself, but I've never had a chance to see him, sigh."
Chi Xiu stood up upon hearing this: "What a coincidence, I'm going to the Grand Arena too."
After saying that, he left the teahouse, leaving behind the words: "You drank my tea, so I'm not paying!"
The teahouse owner stared blankly at Chi Xiu's back: "Holy crap! Going to the Grand Arena? I didn't realize you were a Soul Master too?!"
