The Desire to Be Eternal
Chapter 8: We're Going Out!



As soon as he realized that Xu Baocai was coming, Bai Xiaochun surged to his feet.


"Well, he came sooner than expected ..." he thought, his eyes flashing with doubt. Even though he had done all he could to prepare in the past half a year, he still did not feel ready. As far as he was concerned, the best option was to go into conflict at the fourth level of Qi Condensation. Then he will feel safe.


Seeing that Xu Baocai had come with a group of seven others, Bai Xiaochun knew that hiding was not an option. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Alright! I'm gonna do it! "


Taking a deep breath, he quickly put on eight leather coats, and then attached his spare frying pan to his back. That was when he nervously opened the door and stepped out.


The first thing he saw was Big Fatty Zhang and the others near the front gate, raising a meat machete and a large kitchen spoon as they blocked the path of Xu Baocai and his companions.


"I wonder why I heard the crow crow squawk this morning," Big Fatty Zhang roared, his voice echoing like thunder as he stood there, tall and like a mountain. "It turns out, a group of brats from the Supervisory Department decided to come cause a commotion here in the Oven!"


"Other people might be afraid of the Ovens, Big Fatty Zhang, but the Supervisory Department doesn't care about you. We received a complaint from Junior Brother Xu, and we are here with the authority of the Supervisory Department. Do you really dare to fight us? " The seven arrogant-looking men crowded around Xu Baocai. Although they were wearing servant uniforms, their sleeves were prominently embroidered with the characters of 'Supervisors,' indicating that they were from the Supervisory Department, and had status and strength beyond ordinary servants.


One of them was a burly man who looked as sturdy as a tiger and as sturdy as a bear. He exuded spirit pressure of the third level of Qi Condensation, and his eyes glittered coldly as he stared at Big Fatty Zhang. It seemed, he did not appear to be bothered at all by Big Fatty Zhang and the others.


"Omong empty!" replied Big Fatty Zhang. “He tried to kill my Junior Brother. How do you explain that !? ” He then laughed coldly as his hand whistled through the air, causing the large black skillet on his back to suddenly fly into the air, looking extremely majestic. The burly man's cohort looked on with a flickering expression, and to the burly man himself, his eyes widened. His hand flashed in a spell motion, causing a small flag to fly. Fog shot out from the flag, from which the roar of a savage beast could be heard.


Even as the figurative sword was being drawn, Xu Baocai saw Bai Xiaochun come out of his hut made of straw, and all his previous grudges and hatred erupted within him.


"Bai Xiaochun !!" he roars.


As soon as those words came out of Xu Baocai's mouth, he waved his hand, sending his wooden sword flying out.


A look of shock was seen on the faces of Big Fatty Zhang and the others. Just as they were about to jump to stop the wooden sword, the burly man from the Supervisory Department laughed coldly and blocked their path.


However, at the same time Bai Xiaochun, red eyes, roared, "Xu Baocai, you've pushed too far! You and I will go as hard as we can! ”


Bai Xiaochun's heart was pounding. He had never really fought all his life, let alone a magical battle against another cultivator.


He was so nervous that he was shaking. Roaring to build up his own courage, he released the strength of the third level of Qi Condensation, holding nothing back from his cultivation base. He poured all his spiritual energy into his wooden sword, then waved his finger to send it flying towards Xu Baocai.


As the wooden sword whistled through the air, the two designs hidden by the tacky paint flickered slightly. Suddenly, the sword expanded in size and exploded with an oppressive coldness as it pierced Xu Baocai.


The speed and majesty he shot out in the air caused Big Fatty Zhang, as well as the group from the Supervisory Department, to gasp and stare in astonishment. As a ferocious sword aura filled the area, all hearts jolted in shock, and suddenly, no one was interested in fighting anymore, and instead stared at the sword.


Xu Baocai had not even approached Bai Xiaochun, and was startled by his energy. From what he knew, this version of Bai Xiaochun was completely different from the person he had faced a few months before. The way he gritted his teeth and looked like he was going to desperately cause Xu Baocai's heart to be filled with shock.


Furthermore, his eyes widened in disbelief as he saw Bai Xiaochun's wooden sword speeding towards him. It was like a stream of white light, exploding with the kind of energy that only he saw during the fights between the disciples of the Outer Sect. He was so flabbergasted that his scalp was numb.


Explosions rang out as Bai Xiaochun's wooden sword struck Xu Baocai. Xu Baocai's wooden sword trembled, completely unable to deal with the might of the punch. Starting from the end, smashed into pieces. In the blink of an eye, it completely shattered, turning into countless glittering fragments.


As for Bai Xiaochun's wooden sword, it didn't even stop. It kept darting through the air towards Xu Baocai, who was at this point scared without intelligence. Using all the power he could muster, he dodged. The wooden sword whistled past him, slashed his shoulder in the process, and then slashed at a nearby tree.


Luckily for him, Bai Xiaochun was not very adept at controlling physical objects. Otherwise, the sword would have killed him.


“Third level Qi Condensation! Impossible! This is impossible!" Xu Baocai looked at Bai Xiaochun, and he looked as frightened as he had just seen a ghost. To be able to unleash such power in a wooden sword obviously required a third level of Qi Condensation, and he could not imagine how Bai Xiaochun could make such an astonishing transformation in just a few months. Things went exactly the opposite as he had imagined, which he could not possibly accept. It seems like he was in a living nightmare.


He was not the only one surprised. The burly man from the Supervisory Department and all his friends all gasped and looked at Bai Xiaochun with a serious expression.


“Shaping sharpness with spiritual energy and releasing sword light! It was only possible by cultivating the Violet Qi Cauldron Control Art into the Light-in-Weight Realm! There was no other way to unleash such a divine ability! " The burly man from the Supervisory Department gasped, and fear could now be seen in his eyes as he looked at Bai Xiaochun.


His companions had the exact same reaction, and there was almost no need to mention Big Fatty Zhang and the others, who were also completely shocked. Although they had sensed that Bai Xiaochun had reached the third level of Qi Condensation, the fact that he could cause sword light to come out from the wooden sword, and also make it become even bigger, was the fact that he could cause sword light to come out from the wooden sword, indicating that he had actually reached the Lightness-in-Heaviness Realm, something they were completely unaware of before.


Even Bai Xiaochun was slightly shaken by what had just happened with the wooden sword. He looked at the fallen tree, then at the pale-faced Xu Baocai, and suddenly threw his head back and laughed.


"So, Xu Baocai, it turns out that you are weak! My sword! " Graved that he was clearly stronger than Xu Baocai, Bai Xiaochun immediately began to chase after Xu Baocai, laughing the entire time.


Bai Xiaochun's gaze caused Xu Baocai to tremble, and the sight of him rushing over, laughing out loud, was truly frightening. Xu Baocai immediately rushed to escape.


However, he could only take a few steps before Bai Xiaochun was nearby. As he approached, Bai Xiaochun could not help but think about how Xu Baocai chased after him endlessly, forcing him to spend a lot of bitter time practicing cultivation. That bitterness turned into strength, which he now used to ruthlessly kick Xu Baocai.


"Let's see you try to kill me again!" he shouted, punching Xu Baocai in the eye. Xu Baocai let out a heartbreaking scream and fell to the ground. He wanted to fight back, but his cultivation base was only at the second level of Qi Condensation, making him powerless to do anything for Bai Xiaochun.


"You provoked Young Master, so now he will show you that he should not be taken lightly!" Angrily, Bai Xiaochun continued kicking and hitting Xu Baocai, who was now wailing miserably.


A cracking sound could be heard which caused the burly man and the others from the Supervisory Department, as well as Big Fatty Zhang and the others, to all stare in shock. They watched as Xu Baocai was beaten, and Bai Xiaochun vigorously performed a beating, and their hearts pounded in fear.


Tears flowed down Xu Baocai's face, and his heart was filled with sorrow. He still could not believe that Bai Xiaochun had undergone such a drastic transformation in just a few short months. What was even more unbelievable was that he could use the divine ability of Light-in-Weight. It was something impossible to achieve without years of work and significant skills.


In his mind, Bai Xiaochun clearly had to have someone strong help him. Moreover, he must be stronger than he had let before. However, due to his despicable and shameless personality, he pretended to be weak. The most outrageous thing was that Xu Baocai was completely in love with the act.


At that moment, Xu Baocai was overwhelmed with grief, and only fainted.


Seeing that Xu Baocai had fallen unconscious, Bai Xiaochun patted the dust of his clothes and then waved his hand, causing his wooden sword to fly up his sleeve. Then, looking like a lonely hero, he did his best to hide the excitement in his eyes.


The burly man from the Supervisory Department looked at him deeply, his expression conflicted. Finally, he clasped his hands and bowed.


"Junior Brother Bai, you did a good job of hiding your true strength," he said, his face expressionless. "You've earned our admiration." Then, he turned around and left with his comrades, taking the unconscious Xu Baocai and carrying him as well.


After they left, Big Fatty Zhang and the others crowded around Bai Xiaochun, smiling widely. After all, the people from the Supervisory Department were outsiders, and they knew that Bai Xiaochun had been working hard for the past few months. They are therefore happy with the overall result.


“Good work, son. You didn't commit suicide for half a year without pay! " Big Zhang Fatty patted Bai Xiaochun on the shoulder.


"I worked so hard that I was scared myself! ” Bai Xiaochun raised his chin proudly like an arrogant rooster, as if daring Fatty Zhang and the others to ever laugh at him again.
