I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

”

“Take the easy way out, take the easy way out, take the easy way out…”

Xu Xiaoshou slipped away very quickly.

This round of impersonating the Eighth Sword Deity was too successful.

Not only did he get the internal intelligence of the Jiang family and thoroughly investigate the situation, but he also took the ‘Heaven Pearl’ along the way.

After changing into his invisible form, Xu Xiaoshou entered the private room of the Little Wine House.
He ate a sumptuous meal, and after he was done, he started playing with the ‘Heaven Pearl’ that he had obtained.
He was very curious about it.

“The Eye of Heaven, huh…”

When he had just taken over the pearl, he had not been able to examine it immediately.

Now that he looked at the pearl carefully, Xu Xiaoshou could see the round eyeball inside.
It was filled with an extremely mysterious and unknown power.

This power was especially mysterious.

Xu Xiaoshou had experienced the charm of the cutting path level before, but at this moment, he actually felt that the power of the ‘Eye of Heaven’ was even more mysterious than the path level was.

“Jiang Xian relied on this thing to sense junior sister’s ‘God Devil Eyes’?”

Xu Xiaoshou pondered.

The ‘Heaven Pearl’ was obviously using the ability of the ‘Eye of Heaven’ to add a crystal ball and array into it to sense external objects.

The power of the ‘Eye of Heaven’ is the main reason that Xu Xiaoshou didn’t know how to use it.

Mnemonic spells?

Drip blood on it for it to recognize its owner?

Xu Xiaoshou tried all kinds of methods that he could think of, but the ‘Eye of Heaven’ remained in deep sleep and didn’t move at all.

“Let’s go back and show junior sister!”

This time, Xu Xiaoshou had decided to give up.

After all, he didn’t know how to use this thing at all.
The reason he had snatched it from Jiang Xian’s hands was to prevent the other party from using it in the future.
In this way, he would not be able to sense Mu Zixi’s location.

After eating and drinking his fill, Xu Xiaoshou waved his hand.

“Waiter, get the bill.”

The waiter from the wine house ran over.

After paying the bill, Xu Xiaoshou pushed three more spirit crystals over and asked, “I’m new to this place.
Has anything big happened in the Imperial City recently?”

“Thank you, sir.”

The waiter who received the tip was very excited.
A tip of three spirit crystals was not a small sum.

Although the person in front of him was dressed shabbily, he was very generous.

After thinking for a moment, the waiter replied seriously, “If we are talking about the recent major events, then it must be the Imperial City Trial.”

“What a coincidence.
I heard from a guest in the tavern this morning that the exact time of the Imperial City Trial has been set.
If nothing goes wrong, it will be ten days later, at the Yunlun Mountain Range.”

Ten days later, at the Yunlun Mountain Range… Xu Xiaoshou nodded.
This was basically the same information as what Xiaolian had given him.

“Are there anything else?” He asked.

“I’m not sure about the rest of the details, but since the Holy Divine Palace has already released the news, there should be no mistakes.
As for the specific rules of the trial, they will not officially announce it until ten days later,” The waiter replied.

Xu Xiaoshou caressed the Heaven Pearl and asked, “Is there anything else important?”

“Yes.”

The waiter replied, “Recently, Young Master Xu came to the Imperial City.
I heard that he is a demi-saint’s descendant, and he is very ostentatious.
He rented the Pilgrimage Tower and renamed it the First Pavilion in the Sky.”

“Then he participated in the heaven geomantic battle and won the entire battle with overwhelming force.
However, he gave the championship to a mortal.
Because he violated the rules of the Holy Divine Palace, he was suspended this morning.”

“This happened yesterday.
It caused a huge commotion.
Everyone was discussing it.
They all feel that this demi-saint’s descendent might not be qualified for the trial.”

Xu Xiaoshou was stunned when he heard this.

I’m suspended?

The waiter didn’t notice his expression, he still smiled and said, “Young Master Xu was too much.
He clearly knew that the heaven geomantic battle was hosted by the Holy Divine Palace behind the scenes, yet he still dared to cause such a big mess.
He reaped benefits from the confusion and gave up the championship.”

“If he really wants to play this way, then doesn’t that mean that whoever Young Master Xu wants to let participate in the Imperial City trials can go? Whoever he wants to give a spot to, that person will get it?”

“That would be too sinful of him!”

The waiter had a look of disdain on his face.
“I’m just annoyed with these big shots who rely on their background and operate in the dark, don’t you think so?”

“Being despised, passive points, + 1.”

Xu Xiaoshou was speechless.

His head hurt when he heard that.
He never thought that he would hear the news of him being suspended from the competition through a tavern’s waiter.

Apart from that, he was also ridiculed coldly.

“Maybe he didn’t operate in the dark but relied on his strength to win the competition.
Perhaps he gave it up just because he was magnanimous?” After pondering for a moment, Xu Xiaoshou couldn’t help but argue for himself.

The waiter sneered, “Demi-saint family.
How rich are they? Even if they tried their hardest to beat a pig up with only panaceas and elixirs, they would still be capable of defeating an invincible pig in its innate stage.
Sir, you’re new here.
You don’t understand how deep the waters of the imperial city are!”

“Despised, passive points, + 1.”

Xu Xiaoshou kept quiet.

He decided to give up this topic and not lower himself to this villain’s level.

It seems that no matter which world it is, there would still be many people who hate the rich.

“Is there any other information?” Xu Xiaoshou asked.

The waiter turned around and looked at the other guests who had not been served yet.
He was a little anxious, but he weighed the spirit crystals in his arms and suddenly felt relieved.
“Then I’ll give you a big one!”

“Speak.” Xu Xiaoshou was looking forward to it.

The waiter bent down and said in a low voice, “Do you know about the Sky City?”

“A little,” Xu Xiaoshou replied.

The waiter sneakily looked back.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he lowered his voice and said,

“There was a rumor in the market last night that the Sky City was about to descend on Dongtianwang City.
It’s not false, but it was sealed by the Holy Divine Palace.”

“This time, it’s going crazy again.
I guess some big shot released the news and wanted to stir up more trouble in the Imperial City.”

“I think it’s unrealistic.”

“But the Sky City is a sacred place.
It’s rumored that there’s a saint-level foundational root, so it’s better to believe it than not.
If you want, you can chase after your dream.”

The waiter sighed as he continued.

“However, that would be hard for me…”

He had only achieved the acquired stage two days ago, and he is trapped by his livelihood.
It is already considered pretty good for him to be a waiter here.

“Right!”

Before Xu Xiaoshou could react, the waiter seemed to have thought of something and said, “Before this news came out, I heard that the Night Cat has a Spirit Gem Trade Fair, and there are also some clues about the void token.”

“Sky City, the Sacred Secret Land.
Other than these two names, it seems to have a nickname called Abyss Island.
When I think about it…”

The waiter shivered.
“It’s terrifying to think about it!”

Xu Xiaoshou thought to himself that the Night Cat’s efficiency was quite high.
In just one night, even people from such a small tavern knew about Abyss Island.

Now he is relieved.

It seemed that the Night Cat was not an organization that did not work for money.

Seeing that the waiter still had work to do, Xu Xiaoshou did not plan to pester him further.
After he had asked all his questions, he gifted another bottle of small elixirs, allowing the waiter to leave.

Just as he was about to get up and leave, the ‘Heaven Pearl’ in his hand suddenly hummed slightly.

Xu Xiaoshou was surprised.

He lowered his head and saw the “Eye of Heaven” in the crystal ball moved slightly in the white fog and turned to look in a certain direction in the small tavern..
