Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 145: Chapter 144 So you were all cautious when I was there?_i

The Qingzhou governor led the local officials of Qingzhou, marching towards Buyi Town in a grand array. He slammed his official seal down, demolishing the rules enveloping the small town into nebulous shards, gradually breaking down.

This was not his own power, rather it was the authority bestowed upon him by the Great Xia dynasty. It allowed him to tap into a small portion of worldly power.

The group of cultivators was quite used to dealing with this kind of situation. With them taking action, things like not being able to confront the private schoolteacher, or that there was danger lurking in the straw-thatched huts in daylight, were all made rather laughable.

They apprehended the private school teacher, dragged out the wraith hiding in the straw-thatched hut, investigated how many were moving corpses and how many were living beings, studied whether the man transformed into a black dog could be restored… everything was being carried out in neat order.

Fairy Eternity had never seen such a scene, as the concept of a nation did not exist in the ancient times. The system built around clans did not have such a clear division of roles and orderly organization.

According to Daoist Buyu’s claim, this power was just the strength of one dynasty. If it were combined with the might of the Five Great Immortal Sects, it would be able to roll over the ancient cultivators without hindrance.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou found the inn-owner, who was rescued. Seeing them, the inn-owner broke into tears of joy. He never expected that they could actually solve the problem, and in such a short period of time.

He truly regretted ever doubting whether Lu Yang’s duo were demon cultivators.

The Qingzhou officials also found out that the owner of the medicine shop was a puppet of the town mayor, with numerous pieces of evidence proving the harm he had inflicted on others. Restricted by the rules, the owner of the medicine shop appeared to be telling the truth while in reality, he was hiding crucial information, and it had led to the harm of many innocent people.

The medicine shop apprentices, private school teacher, bailiff, and the bun-shop owner… all these people were put under arrest, their fates to be decided after the truth was unraveled.

The Qingzhou governor drafted a report on the spot to inform the imperial court about the trio’s actions. Still, Daoist Buyu stopped him, asked him to omit the names of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou from the report, ensuring their rewards and commendations were kept intact.

Daoist Buyu treated these two talented juniors to a meal in the busiest tavern in Qingzhou.

“Haha, at last, it’s all over!”

“Even though our travel plans hit a small bump, it’s just a minor matter. After we have had our fill, I will take you guys to experience the hustle and bustle of the mainland down south.”

“This time, while your Eldest Senior Sister is absent, the three of us will let loose. Relax, I will take responsibility if anything happens!”

Daoist Buyu laughed heartily. There was nothing left for him to deal with as the government officials were handling the rest. After managing to break free, it was only right for him to let himself go a little.

“Oh? Is that so? Have you guys been holding back because of me?”

The icy voice that came next abruptly cut off Daoist Buyu’s laughter.

Only then did Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou realize that the bustling tavern had quieted down. Their table was the only one where sounds of laughter could be heard from. Now that the three of them had all fallen silent, the tavern was so quiet that one could even hear a pin drop.

As it turned out, the customers in the tavern had noticed quite some time ago that a stunningly beautiful woman had arrived. The moment she appeared, she had attracted everyone’s attention, leaving them awestruck by her beauty and aura. Instinctively, they all shut their mouths, not even daring to breathe too loudly for fear of being noticed.

The woman chose a table and sat down, quietly watching Daoist Buyu and his students as they reveled in their joy.

No one could see that there were two soul bodies bound to the two chains in the woman’s hands.

Finally, the woman spoke and that’s when Daoist Buyu and his students noticed her.

“Ah, it’s Xiao Yun. Come, come, join us,” Daoist Buyu managed to squeeze out a chuckle.

“Hello, Eldest Senior Sister,” Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou greeted respectfully.

Daoist Buyu looked at the chains Xiao Yun had in her hands somewhat with surprise, recognizing that the ones being bound were the fleeing Unification realm cultivators.

“Xiao Yun, when did you join us?”

“Since the first time you wielded ‘One Sword Becomes Ten Thousand’,” Xiao Yun replied.

Daoist Buyu started to sweat profusely. That happened a day ago, no wonder Xiao Yun managed to track down these two.

After pondering for a moment, he found relief in the fact that he had not spoken ill of Xiao Yun in the past day.

The two captured Unification realm cultivators were terrified as they watched Xiao Yun. They wondered in horror at what level her unique method of casually warping their souls out be. They had once again run into such a terrifying person. Where was the promised uprising of the ancient era with opportunities lying everywhere? Instead of opportunities, only danger seemed to lurk everywhere.

“Initially, I was only concerned that you would lose your way and misguide them, but little did I expect that you guys were having so much fun in my absence,” said Xiao Yun, in a casual tone that made the trio shudder.

Meng Jingzhou reacted the fastest, pointing at Lu Yang, “It’s all his fault, I didn’t want to come here initially, but he dragged me along!”

Lu Yang immediately pointed at Daoist Buyu, “It’s all master’s fault. He wanted to fulfill his obligations as a master, so he brought me here to see the world!” Daoist Buyu pointed at Meng Jingzhou, “It was his grandfather! His grandfather asked me to take care of his grandson. That’s the only reason I took them out!”

Daoist Buyu’s extensive experience told him that the wisest thing to do was to put the blame on someone who was not present.

Xiao Yun’s cold gaze swept over them, “Master, you can continue to spread the brilliant deeds of the Seeking Dao Sect. As for Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, you both will come back with me.”

Xiao Yun was afraid that Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou might pick up her master’s misbehaviors.

Before heading back with the two, she spoke to Daoist Buyu, “On your way, let the governor of Qingzhou know that the criminals have been caught. There’s no need to be so anxious.”

Xiao Yun planned to bring back the two captured Unification realm cultivators, hoping to extract useful information from them.

On their way back, Lu Yang sought to curry favor with his Eldest Senior Sister by demonstrating his merit – after all, hadn’t he just taken down a Unification realm cultivator? Perhaps this could earn him some contribution points.

Xiao Yun seemed puzzled, “Wasn’t it Yellow Bean who killed the Unification realm cultivator?”

Upon hearing that, Fairy Eternity didn’t pay mind to the fact that Yun Zhi had called her by her name, instead excitedly asking, “Does that mean I can get contribution points?”

“But you are not from the Seeking Dao Sect, so of course not.”

Fairy Eternity didn’t hesitate, quickly saying, “Then I’ll join the Seeking Dao Sect.”

Lu Yang stared at Fairy Eternity in surprise. How could she just join like that? What about the dignity of being an immortal?

Yun Zhi nodded, “It’s perfectly acceptable for an immortal to join the Seeking Dao Sect. I can permit you to become the first guest elder of the Seeking Dao Sect. Only I will know of your identity. In return, you’ll get the contribution points from this time, as well as treatment similar to that of an elder. If you agree to these conditions, then you may join.”

“I join,” Fairy Eternity was quite fond of the atmosphere of the Seeking Dao Sect, which was similar to her own personality. These kinds of places were few and far between.

Yun Zhi mentioned another thing, speaking to Lu Yang, “A few days ago, the leader of the Laurel Fairy Palace came to me, saying that they want you to marry Lan Ting.”

“You seem to be at the age appropriate for marriage discussions. Our Seeking Dao Sect is a good match to Laurel Fairy Palace, so I agreed for you both to be Dao companions. But, then something happened. The leader of Laurel Fairy Palace changed her mind. Do you have any clue about this? Did they feel that you were not good enough?”

Lu Yang was utterly perplexed by these words.
