Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Fulfilled All My WishesCh14 - Heart of Gold and Grace of Jade

Meng Yixuan glanced at the commissions board in an attempt to find somewhere else to go. Maybe he’d encounter more cute plants or cute guys.

Either way, it was fun to traverse the mortal realm and discover new things and experience all sorts of things he’d never been able to when he was a small person. NiURfr

Unfortunately, there was somehow nothing to be seen. All of the hundreds of commissions that were just there the other day had disappeared, leaving only stray wisps of qi in their wake.

“Cui Shijie, what happened to all the commissions?” He turned to the only person in the room who’d know, somewhat disappointed that he’d arrived too late to pick up another quest.

“They were temporarily removed upon the Sect Master’s orders.” Cui Daiyu’s statement only prompted his curiosity further. As far as he knew, no important story arcs were coming up just yet.

The secret realm arc would only take place after the blood moon shone, and that would only be happening in half a year, if his cultivator senses had anything to say about it. POWCH1

“The entire sect was told to prepare for the sect-wide competition next week! Cos our sect only has 50 passes for entry for disciples below golden core, 16 for golden core, and 4 for nascent soul and above. If you want to abstain, tell Peak Master Yao and he’ll do the procedures for you. Then you can take more commissions.”

Luo Shanting said many, many words and the only ones that really registered was the fact that if he wanted to enter the secret realm, he’d have to fight! All the thousand plus disciples! And rank in the top 50!

He’d only succeed in such a tremendous feat when pigs fly! His only attempt at a battle was only a success because his tripping unleashed a chain of events that unfolded into a lucky break.

Meng Yixuan was a man of many talents, including but not limited to rites, music, calligraphy, mathematics, archery (though he’d only managed that one through a summer camp he’d tricked his parents into allowing him to go to), and horse riding (again, it was the same camp).

This, however, he had no confidence in. He’d only recently started learning how to cultivate and now, he was being thrown in the deep end.

“Yeah! You’ve got this!” Luo Shanting encouraged him. yXmZFA

“Only a fool would risk their life for such a chance.” Cui Daiyu swatted her partner with a cold look on her face, but she was honestly just being a sweet mother bear so Meng Yixuan nodded at her words, showing that he did in fact acknowledge them.

Since Meng Yixuan had determined that he would take part in the sect battles, that meant he’d need to spend tonight’s cultivation session learning how to do battle. Having reached that conclusion, he encountered a problem.

“Luo Shijie, Cui Shijie, don’t take me as an idiot here, cause I’m really not, but where’s the sect library?”

Some foreign entity let out a pfft- sound, like they wanted to laugh. And it definitely wasn’t the cyan-sashed, pristine robed cultivator before him, who wore a sneaky look as they covered their mouth. pmqa7s

Even the taller woman behind her had a soft smile of amusement before conjuring up a black jade stone.

She didn’t even say anything to elaborate before Meng Yixuan’s brain told him the properties of this particular gem: basically a compass, that led the way to one’s true heart’s desire.

It was said to be an extremely precious and rare treasure which only someone of a pure yin constitution and a metal-earth double root, could locate.

They only grew in small quantities too, basically a treasure as rare as hen’s teeth. HxRYMt

Even rarer, in fact, seeing as some sickos decided to experiment and cause mutations that’d make teeth not-so-rare.

All in all, not something Cui Shijie should give away so easily, but she seemed to be not only beautiful as a jade but her chest held a heart of gold. He felt guilty to take it but she held it out to him, clearly willing to part with it.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Shijie, I can’t take this, it’s much too valuable.” Meng Yixuan, a man who grew up in the 21st century, knew all about empty words and didn’t take the jade.

“Oi! Meng Yixuan! I thought we were already past the stage of standing on ceremony as fellow disciples! You’re gonna make Shijie sad if you speak like that!” ObyBiC

And, much like Luo Shanting’s words, Cui Daiyu’s face was ever so slightly scrunched up and she pouted. Every expression on such a heavenly-blessed face would turn tides and this one was no exception.

Even the face con gay man Meng Yixuan couldn’t bear to see displeasure on pretty people so he complied, taking the jade from her hand swiftly and with grace.

“This Shidi will never forget Shijie’s favour. Please accept my gratitude!” He bent to give a formal bow, which Cui Daiyu avoided while carrying Luo Shanting in her arms.

“Just don’t let yourself down and Shijie will be happy.” Luo Shanting smiled at her Shijie’s sweetness and couldn’t help but to peck her cheek, overwhelming her lover enough for her cheeks to flush pink. JUIxWd

“Cute.”

… and Meng Yixuan was fed up with the smell of love in the air.

He bid his farewell to the two, planning to use his newly obtained irl GPS fancy jade compass to get to the library to pick up some method scrolls.

He knew very well that he definitely wouldn’t find anything extremely useful, but all he needed right now was a start. Maybe a basic swords manual? q8TNWu

Or a ‘get rich quick’ deal but cultivator style, an ‘ascend to immortality in 5 easy steps’ guide. And if the steps were to cultivate, train, practice, meditate, and fight diligently, then he’d throw a fit and rage quit.

While trudging along in his muddle thoughts, he arrived at the peak’s large library pavilion really quickly.

The building itself looked nothing special from the outside, other than the fact that it looked as big as three of the commission hall’s pavilions mashed into one. The library also had a plaque with ‘library’ written on it.

Cui Shijie’s jade was awfully useful, he noted as he carefully put it in his crystal earring, unwilling to let it break or even come to harm. VJNmgb

His careful manner was due to the fact that it was a precious gift that must cost at least hundreds, if not thousands of top grade spiritual stones. Much too expensive for him to be careless with as someone who had a subtotal of two spiritual stones in his storage pouch.

The pitifully broke Meng Yixuan approached the large almost-golden gates of the library pavilion.

currently obsessed with martial, please calm down on here, super cute!! i lowkey love how, much like my own story, the dog food is scattered by virtually everyone else but the main couple hehe~
