Muscular Rabbits Legion: “No one can escape from the novice village!”
Chapter 392 - Chapter 392 Chapter 382 Lend and Return No More Loans

Chapter 392: Chapter 382: Lend and Return, No More Loans! Chapter 392: Chapter 382: Lend and Return, No More Loans! “You always bring up the most embarrassing stuff,” lamented Yue Buqun, as his face turned even darker with rage. “I’m already not killing you, and now you want to borrow something? Where do you get the nerve?”

Yi Zheng replied, “See, we barely spoke, and you’re already scowling. Look at it this way, if you lend it to me, we’ll be friends from now on, and I promise not to kill you. But if you don’t lend it to me…”

His expression slowly turned sinister, “then we’ll remain enemies, and enemies should have a good chat after dark.”

Instantly, Yue Buqun thought of the thirty large rabbits summoned by Rabbit with a wave of his hand after using Star Shifting atop Black Wood Cliff. His heart sank. “Rabbit, don’t push me too far!”

Yi Zheng just smiled slightly…

The next moment, Yi Zheng joyfully walked down the mountain with a ring in hand, shouting a thank you before he left.

Resentment surged behind him…

…

Then, Yi Zheng visited the Hengshan Sect and Mount Tai Sect. Neither of these sects held a grudge against Yi Zheng; in fact, he had indirectly avenged them. So when they saw Yi Zheng rolling up his sleeves, ready to fight, they were quite friendly and lent him their equipment.

Next, he went to the Songshan Sect, where he kicked the gate open without a word and yelled, “This is a robbery!”

And then everything went smoothly.

Apart from these sects, Yi Zheng also paid a visit to the Shaolin Temple.

The high monks of Shaolin didn’t hold any hostility toward Rabbit. Yi Zheng didn’t act arrogantly either; after all, the Sweeping Monk might have been around, and who knows if Xuzhu was there too. Not to mention, any of the four great monks, capable of going toe-to-toe with Zhang Wuji at his peak, would have been enough trouble for Yi Zheng.

As the saying goes, if the enemy is strong, act weak–peace reigns supreme. This was the principle.

Yi Zheng entered the temple gates respectfully and offered three sticks of incense.

A tall, thin monk appeared, greeting with hands clasped, “Amitabha, benefactor, I already know of your purpose here. However, our temple’s property cannot be lent out…”

Rabbit, sitting on a cushion and yawning, looked at the monk and asked, “Abbot, how may I address you?”

The monk replied with hands clasped, “I am Xuan Ci.”

Yi Zheng smiled, grabbed the Merit Box, and started throwing Gold Coins into it–not too many, just one by one.

Xuan Ci shook his head with a smile, “Money is but an external possession. No matter how much you throw, it cannot disrupt our rules.”

Yi Zheng shook his head too, “This isn’t charity. I’m paying Buddha to listen to my story.”

Xuan Ci frowned, “Oh? And what story would you tell Buddha?”

Yi Zheng replied, “About what once happened outside Yanmen Pass.”

Xuan Ci’s expression changed dramatically!

Yi Zheng continued, “Buddha, there was once a leader who received false intelligence about an invasion outside Yanmen Pass, and ended up killing an entire innocent family before realizing his mistake.

Should such a man die?

There’s another who seduced a woman, left her pregnant, and then just cleaned himself off and ran.

Should such a man die?

I think he should.

Nowadays, the child at Yanmen Pass has grown up, his name is Qiao…”

Before he could finish, Xuan Ci swiftly grabbed Rabbit by the ears and dragged him to an adjacent meditation room, but after a while, Rabbit left the monastery happily, resentment filling the air behind him.

At Wudang Mountain, Yi Zheng looked at the dragon-like clouds swirling over the peak, and upon hearing that Zhang Sanfeng was cultivating,

Yi Zheng thought for a moment, then turned away, murmuring, “I can’t afford to provoke this…”

After running around all the major sects, Yi Zheng ended up with a string of Prayer Beads around his neck, carrying a Duster in his hand, sitting on a cushion, tapping a wooden fish as he returned to Newbie Village.

Sitting at home, he still looked puzzled.

Even after borrowing from all the major sects and stubbornly using the Counterfeiting Skill on all the equipment to forcefully raise everything to Epic grade, he was disgusted that while the upgrade improved defense, attack, and other attributes, his Comprehension remained as unmoving as an old dog!

Yi Zheng felt a pathetic despair. He picked up his erhu and played for a while, which resulted in collective cursing from the rabbits below the mountain: “Who the heck is hitting the table legs at midnight?”

“Dammit, can’t you let people sleep?”

“Where did this nuisance come from?!”

…

Yi Zheng’s face darkened. He put down the erhu, pointed his butt at the window, and yelled, “What’s wrong with me playing the erhu? All of you get to the sect entrance and listen to your boss play the erhu!”

The next moment, more than a million members of the Rabbit Family Army listened, tears streaming down their faces, to the rabbit sitting on the cushion, with Buddha Beads around his neck and a Duster tucked into the collar of his robe, sawing away… no, playing the erhu.

Each of them thought, “We’re going to die, we’re really going to die…”

As he played the erhu, Yi Zheng’s Comprehension remained stuck at 20, no matter what he did.

After a while, Yi Zheng threw the Duster and wooden fish aside, and lay despondently on the cushion, “Damn it, it seems I’m destined not to learn the Dugu Nine Swords.”

It seemed like all his troubles had been for nothing.

Yi Zheng was incredibly frustrated…

“Boss, don’t be so down. How about we go for a drink?” Zi Gong tentatively asked at that moment.

Yi Zheng, who was already feeling gloomy, immediately perked up at the mention of drinking, preparing to drown his sorrows in alcohol. He sprang up and ran, “Let’s go… for a drink!”

Seeing that the boss was not going to play the erhu but go for a drink instead, the Rabbit Family Army collectively cried, finally freed!

The way they looked at Zi Gong was as if they were looking at a hero.

Meanwhile, Liu Fei yelled, “Sect Master, what about all this equipment?”

“Don’t want them; just help me return them all!” Yi Zheng shouted without turning back.

Liu Fei sighed and then fetched Old Wang from next door to have them return the equipment to the various sects.

Then the various sects became lively.

Hengshan Sect.

“Has Mr. Mo come out yet?” someone asked.

“Not yet, it’s strange. He was playing the erhu just fine, but then Mr. Mo suddenly exclaimed with excitement about Rabbit returning Top Grade items and even mentioned that Rabbit was pretty decent.

In his excitement, he insisted on using his erhu to perform a move called ‘Sun and Moon in the Pot.’ As soon as he launched the move, he suddenly suffered unbearable stomach pain and ran into the latrine. He has been squatting there all night, claiming he was dying… Strange, truly strange.”

“Ah… indeed strange…”

Just then, with a loud clang, someone shouted, “Mr. Mo has fallen into the toilet! Quick, someone help!”

…

Hua Mountain Sect.

Yue Buqun looked at the line in the “Exorcism Sword Manual”: “To practice this technique, one must castrate oneself with a knife!”

Ultimately, he closed the book and put down the knife, unable to make up his mind, “Nowadays, with Zuo Lengchan disabled and Ren Woxing also disabled, there is no one left to hinder me from the Five Mountains Sword Sects. There’s no need to practice this technique.”

Just then, someone outside shouted, “Master, people from Rabbit’s side have returned the borrowed Comprehension Ring.”

Yue Buqun was slightly surprised, having thought that it was a lost cause like carrots baiting rabbits, never to return, but who would have thought, that darn Rabbit actually kept its promise and returned it.

Yue Buqun immediately opened the door and took the ring back. He hadn’t cared much, but when he discovered that he had lent out Top Grade equipment and got back an Epic Ring, although the Comprehension hadn’t increased, the accompanying Clear Heart Skill’s effect had increased multiple times!

He was immediately startled and excited, “The Clear Heart Skill can calm one’s mind, as serene as ten thousand years of ice. I wonder if this state could help me comprehend some profound truths from the ‘Exorcism Sword Manual.’ If it can, it might significantly benefit my martial skills. Unexpectedly, that Rabbit even knew to return some interest…”

Thinking this, Yue Buqun could no longer contain his excitement and activated the Clear Heart Skill to study the ‘Exorcism Sword Manual,’ and the Defective Attribute triggered–Paranoia!

Almost instantly, Yue Buqun’s eyes turned red and he stared breathlessly at the ‘Exorcism Sword Manual’ in front of him, saying, “How can I, the Sect Leader of Mount Hua, be inferior to others? How can I stand being repeatedly humiliated by a rabbit? Is castration so unbearable?! Let’s do it!”

Then Yue Buqun picked up the knife, and with a swift motion, the deed was done!

“Ah…!”

A piercing scream resounded over the peak of Mount Hua, startling a flight of crows into chaotic cawing.

…

Shaolin Sect.

Xuan Ci looked at the returned meditation cushion and pondered, then sat down on it and cursed, “How could that darn Rabbit know so much?”

After cursing, Xuan Ci quickly brought his hands together, “Amitabha, I shouldn’t curse, it’s a sin, a sin.”

Then he looked at the meditation cushion under his buttocks, which had gone from Legendary Level to Epic and was somewhat surprised, then said, “It seems, Rabbit took the cushion to Artifact Refining, improved its grade, and returned it. Rabbit’s character isn’t that bad. I might have been too harsh cursing him…”

Xuan Ci activated the Concentration Skill that came with the cushion, which could enhance cultivation speed by ten percent.

Defective Attribute triggered–Naked Run.

That day, Shaolin Temple was incredibly lively, as countless monks chased a bare-bottomed monk with torches across rooftops.

“Abbot, stop running!”

“Abbot, pull up your pants!”

“Abbot, stop running, or you’ll end up running to the nunnery next door!”

…

In short, that day, many guilds and Wild Monster camps were in disarray.

There were still calm places, like the level 11 Wild Monster, King of Goblins, who was peacefully planting potatoes.

Just when a large goblin ran past, the ground thumped and shook slightly.

One moment the peaceful King of Goblins, the next moment he took off running towards the Wang family, shouting as he ran, “Rabbit is coming, Rabbit is coming…”

The big goblin had question marks all over his forehead, completely clueless about what disease their boss had contracted.

And the instigator of all this chaos, that nefarious big Rabbit, was currently drinking in Newbie Village, blurrily burping and occasionally sneezing while muttering, “Who’s cursing me?”

Zi Gong said, “Boss, could it be those who lent you equipment are cursing you?”

Yi Zheng rolled his eyes and said, “Nonsense! I actually borrowed, not failing to return. Besides, didn’t I return everything? Just borrowed for a day, is it worth cursing me… Achoo! right?”
