Chapter 460: Take turns working
Chapter 460: Take turns working
Lu Yang politely declined the Sword Tower's invitation to a banquet. As promised, the eldest senior sister wrote a letter at a side table, suggesting that Bu Yu Taoist take a trip to Ji State.
"Eldest senior sister, can you find Master?" Lu Yang suddenly remembered that his master had enemies all over the world and was known for being elusive, always having multiple hideouts.
"Yes."
As she spoke, the letter to Bu Yu Taoist was already finished. The eldest senior sister quietly folded the letter into the shape of a paper crane.
She gently blew on the paper crane, and it came to life, its eyes sparkling and wings flapping as it flew out of the cave.
"What is this...?" Lu Yang had never seen such a spell before.
"A little spell I created in my spare time, just to pass the time. I call it the Origami Technique," the eldest senior sister said casually.
Lu Yang gasped. Creating a spell just to pass the time? How was that even possible?
Was the gap between people really this wide? Why was his way of passing the time listening to the Immortal Fairy talk about ancient black history?
If Lu Yang had previously been cautious about listening to the Immortal Fairy's tales, fearing that ancient immortals might team up to eliminate him, now he was fearless.No need to be afraid; if the secrets got out, he would definitely be killed.
Dead either way, why not listen to a few more stories?
"Creating spells is no big deal," the Immortal Fairy thought Lu Yang was too inexperienced. "I could create spells back when I was in the Golden Elixir stage. The Playing Dead Technique was created then. Follow me closely, and you can create spells too!"
Lu Yang kept his distance, not at all tempted by the Immortal Fairy's grand promises.
What use was the Playing Dead Technique? At least create a Water Avoidance Technique or something.
Lu Yang continued to read through the documents.
The elders were all complaining about being broke, asking for more spirit stones. The Great Elder said the mission hall's rewards needed spirit stones, the Second Elder said the spirit stones for maintaining the herb garden's formations were running out, and the Third Elder said he, as a master, had less money than Meng Jingzhou...
All seemingly legitimate reasons, but Lu Yang didn't know whether to approve or deny the requests.
"I'll handle this," the eldest senior sister took the documents from Lu Yang. It was still too early for him to deal with such matters.
Lu Yang thought to himself that navigating the relationships between the elders required skill. He was still too young and hadn't figured out the dynamics yet. He needed to learn more from the eldest senior sister.
Then he watched as she wrote two words at the end of the documents: "No funds."
She worried that Lu Yang might be too soft-hearted to refuse directly.
After finally finishing all the documents, Lu Yang let out a long breath and leaned back in his chair.
"Phew—finally done."
He didn't feel any sense of power while handling the documents, only that the trials of an immortal were indeed difficult.
Fortunately, he had passed this test without any major issues.
"Let me take over!" The Immortal Fairy, seeing the task completed, tried to seize Lu Yang's body to go out and show off.
"Perfect timing. With the documents done, it's time to sort out the invitation list for the sect's celebration," the eldest senior sister said, looking expressionlessly at the Immortal Fairy who had taken control of Lu Yang's body.
Immortal Fairy: "..."
"I've been working for so long without a break!" The Immortal Fairy pouted at the eldest senior sister, but using Lu Yang's face for this expression looked a bit odd.
The eldest senior sister was unmoved, seeing through the Immortal Fairy's little tricks: "Lu Yang was the one handling the documents earlier. Now it's your turn."
The Immortal Fairy forced a smile, trying to appease Lu Yang: "Lu Yang, how about I give your body back?"
Lu Yang was also unmoved, seeing through the Immortal Fairy's insincere smile.
With no other choice, the Immortal Fairy dejectedly began to sort through the list.
"These are all the super-grade and first-grade sects registered with the imperial court."
The eldest senior sister had already prepared a list.
The imperial court and the four major immortal sects were definitely to be invited.
The Immortal Fairy counted the sects on the list: "Eight super-grade sects, one hundred and sixteen first-grade sects."
This meant that besides the five major immortal sects, there were eight other sects with Tribulation Crossing stage experts.
"Wait, now it's nine. The Corpse Driving Sect also counts as a super-grade sect."
The Sect Master of the Corpse Driving Sect had barely managed to elevate his sect to super-grade status.
The number of super-grade sects rarely changed over centuries. The list the eldest senior sister provided was updated just last month, theoretically the latest.
The Sect Master of the Corpse Driving Sect had just broken through after that.
Lu Yang calculated the known number of Tribulation Crossing stage experts: five from the major immortal sects, eight from the super-grade sects.
The imperial court surely had many, with four generals guarding the borders, one of whom he had seen at the end of the Hanshui City incident.
And during the eradication of the Immortal Sect's headquarters, the imperial court had also sent a Tribulation Crossing stage expert.
The Luo Water Guards, who specialized in dealing with ancient cultivators, must have Tribulation Crossing stage experts, likely more than one.
These were just the ones on the surface; there were surely more hidden. Those who reached the Tribulation Crossing stage, except for the Sect Master of the Corpse Driving Sect, were all of high seniority and rarely took action.
"The nine super-grade sects must be invited, and the one hundred and sixteen first-grade sects need to be screened..." The eldest senior sister patiently taught the Immortal Fairy how to screen them.
The Immortal Fairy, being extremely clever, quickly thought of a screening method: "Should we exclude all the sects that have grudges with Bu Yu Taoist?"
Her idea was good; inviting a bunch of sects that had grudges with Bu Yu Taoist would make the celebration difficult to proceed.
"Then there would be no sects left to invite."
"Alright." The Immortal Fairy's first attempt failed.
With the eldest senior sister's guidance, the Immortal Fairy quickly sorted out an invitation list according to her instructions.
"Ask the eldest senior sister how to handle this matter with the Second Senior Brother," Lu Yang suddenly remembered that they had received a complaint from the Golden Buddha Kingdom about the Second Senior Brother while the eldest senior sister was away, and he didn't know how to respond.
The Immortal Fairy hurriedly pulled out a document from the bottom.
The eldest senior sister glanced at it and understood: "So it's about the Second Senior Brother again."
"What should we do?"
"No worries, this isn't the first time the Second Senior Brother has done such things. The Buddha Kingdom has complained before; just ignore it."
The Immortal Fairy let out an "oh" and wrote on the reply to the Buddha Kingdom: "Ignore him."
Lu Yang regained control of his body and, seeing the document's description of the six-foot golden body, was filled with admiration: "Eldest senior sister, can I learn the six-foot golden body?"
In battle, shouting and having the six-foot golden body rise up, majestic like a deity, solemn like a great Buddha, sweeping through the enemies.
Just thinking about it was cool!
"You can give it a try."
The second update will be at eleven o'clock.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
