Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 172: Chapter 171: This Journey is Blessed by Immortal Eternity (Thanks to the Dark Lord for the Patronage)!

Outside the mountain gate of the Seek Dao Sect, eight plainly dressed men were gathered, discussing matters.

“The Five Elements Sect, those wealthy dogs, have no place to spend all their spirit stones. They construct such gigantic airships and stuff it with useless designs! If we had so many spirit stones, we could achieve many of our plans!” One of the high-ranking members of the Eternity Sect ogled the airship parked outside the gate of the Seek Dao Sect with a covetous eye, harboring thoughts of stealing.

The Vice Sect Leader Liu chastised him for his lack of sophistication: “Calm down! Look at you, behaving as if you’ve never seen luxury before. If our mission goes as planned here and we put the Seek Dao Sect to sleep, we can freely plunder, and there’s no doubt we can afford such an airship.”

Another high-ranking member of the Eternity Sect expressed some concern about the future: “But can we succeed this time? We’ve never infiltrated the Seek Dao Sect before!”

The Seek Dao Sect was, to them, nothing short of a lion’s den.

“Please rest assured, my lords. Our mole within the Seek Dao sect has provided us with the event schedule and the map of the area where the Seek Dao Sect conducts their battle exercises. We will surely be safe this time!” Tang Yunsheng spoke up. Despite being an inspector, in this place, he was the one with the lowest position level and realm.

“Yes, Little Tang is right,” another vice sect leader spoke. His name was Gao Zhenglai, and he was at the initial stage of the Unification.

“Furthermore, we are all followers of the Immortal Eternity. The Immortal Eternity symbolizes wisdom, strength, and luck. Under the blessing of the Immortal Eternity, our mission is bound to succeed!”

“Blessings of the Immortal Eternity!”

“Blessings of the Immortal Eternity!”

The eight of them chanted in a hushed whisper, frightened that someone might hear them.

“Dear sirs, sorry to keep you waiting.” Lu Yang came forward to receive his subordinates. His current public identity was the acting sect leader of the Seek Dao Sect, while secretly, he was the master of the Eternity Sect, playing both sides of the field.

“Let me introduce to you, this is our excellent follower who successfully infiltrated the Seek Dao Sect, Rudder Master Lu Yang.” Tang Yunsheng introduced, then whispered, “Where are the other two?”

Just one person to greet the leader when he has arrived?

Lu Yang explained, “Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu are busy grilling kebabs, they can’t leave.”

Tang Yunsheng went on to introduce the seven high-ranking members of the Eternity Sect, including vice sect leaders Liu and Gao, as well as the five guest elders.

Tang Yunsheng was assigned to handle the liaison work. Given his nascent soul stage cultivation level, he would not be able to make a splash in the Seek Dao Sect and there was no need to bring him along.

Lu Yang warned his seven subordinates, “The Seek Dao Sect is a dangerous lion’s den to us, the Eternity Sect. I implore you to follow my instructions. Once something goes wrong, we are all doomed!”

The seven frowned, instinctively repulsed by the idea of following orders from someone at the foundation establishment stage. However, considering that even visitors in a mental hospital have to follow the guide’s commands to avoid being attacked by the patients, they accepted it.

“Lead the way.”

The disciple at the gate didn’t stop the acting-sect leader from leading people into the sect, and let them pass straight away.

Vice Sect Leader Liu was astonished, “We’ve just entered the Seek Dao Sect so easily?”

Lu Yang explained with a smile, “The disciples of the Seek Dao Sect often come to our place for kebabs, so we’ve become quite familiar. They don’t usually give me trouble.”

Vice Sect Leader Liu patted Lu Yang on the shoulder, “I didn’t expect you to get along so well with the Seek Dao Sect’s people, something many cultivators could never do even if they went crazy. Well done. It’s a pity your realm is too low, or else I would promote you!”

Lu Yang thought to himself, how much higher can I be promoted? If I get promoted again, I will become the patriarch.

“Hmm? Wait, what is a patriarch? Isn’t it just the founder of a sect? Considering that I have revived Fairy Eternity and given the Eternity Sect a sense of faith, I am acting as the patriarch!”

Lu Yang felt it was reasonable and justified for him to be the patriarch. Moreover, he wouldn’t have to fight for the position with the fake master of the Eternity Sect.

The hierarchical order within the Eternity Sect had become clear: Fairy Eternity was at the top, followed by Patriarch Lu Yang, and then the master, vice-master, and other insignificant figures.

Considering that Fairy Eternity is currently a guest elder of the Seek Dao Sect and the acting sect master for three days, it wouldn’t be inappropriate to consider the Eternity Sect as a branch of the Seek Dao Sect.

Vice Sect Leader Liu and others looked around curiously as they entered the inner part of the Seek Dao Sect, but they didn’t dare to release their spiritual sense, observing only with their eyes.

As they quietly traipsed along, they were completely terrified, fearing that any signs of their identity would be discovered by someone from the Seek Dao Sect. Fortunately, the worrisome situation had already occurred, and it was too late to fear now.

At the Competitive Martial Arts Square, the first match of the Golden Core group began. Brother Luo Hai, representing Seek Dao Sect, who had once been challenged by Fairy Eternity, was participating.

Brother Luo Hai excelled in water attribute magic skills, and so did his opponent. The two fought, colliding water waves, creating endless tide sounds. The spectacle of their battle did not seem to be at the Golden Core Stage realm at all.

“Here we are; this is our base!” Lu Yang arrived at a barbeque shop, and a large sign outside read “Come Again”.

This was a shop arranged by Dai Bufan that had always been managed by others. During the exchange activity, it was temporarily given to Lu Yang and the other two for use.

Man Gu was grilling skewers skillfully over the fire. The spacious shop was largely empty.

At this time, other shops were also just opening.

The competition between the Seek Dao Sect and the Five Elements Sect had four major groups. Only one major group, the Foundation Establishment Stage group, had started. The other three major groups had longer fighting times, with commendable tactics and strategies, and were more entertaining. This was truly the most attractive part of the exchange conference.

Therefore, all the shops chose to open for business at this time.

“Vice Sect Leader…” Man Gu put down his work and wanted to salute, but was stopped by Vice Sect Leader Liu.

“We are in the dragon’s den; let’s keep things simple.”

“Yes, please have a seat,” Man Gu gestured for them to sit down.

“Where is Meng Jingzhou?” Lu Yang looked around but didn’t find him.

“Oh, Brother Meng said he was going to check out other shops, figuring out how their business is, and whether we need to devise any countermeasures.”

Lu Yang frowned, just about to chastise Meng Jingzhou for not taking his responsibilities seriously. The fate of the Eternity Sect hung in the balance, how could they be distracted by trivial matters?

Vice Sect Leader Liu stopped Lu Yang: “Eh, don’t be angry. As the saying goes, if you’re putting on a show, you must perform it completely. Little Meng’s behavior is consistent with that of a BBQshop worker. You should understand.”

Vice Sect Leader Liu continued: “However, it’s inevitably difficult to work short-staffed. Little Man, go and bring Meng Jingzhou back The three of you know the Seek Dao Sect the best. Let’s discuss together what to do next.” “Yes!” Man Gu ran out of the barbecue shop.

Before leaving, Man Gu said, “By the way, Brother Lu, someone had pre-ordered our skewers. I’m almost done grilling them. Remember to deliver them.”

“Okay.”

Lu Yang took over Man Gu’s work, continued grilling skewers on the grill. His movements were smooth and skilled, looking just like a veteran staff who had been at it for thirty years.

Vice Sect Leader Liu nodded. Lu Yang’s movements were standard, not much different from what he himself had learned.

After grilling, Lu Yang said, “Distinguished guests, please wait a moment, I’ll deliver the food.”

“Hold on, where are you going? I will send someone else to deliver it instead.” Vice Sect Leader Liu stopped Lu Yang; if Lu Yang left, there would only be the seven of them left in the barbecue shop.

Lu Yang pointed to the stand in the distance: “It was ordered by some VIPs in the stand.”

Vice Sect Leader Liu was lost for words. The stand was occupied by the top- ranking members of the Seek Dao Sect and the Five Elements Sect. They were all at the Unification stage. If they went over to deliver food, they would likely get their identities exposed.

“Go, go, go quickly and come back quickly!” Vice Sect Leader Liu waved his hand.

Lu Yang hustled out of the shop with the food box.

Not long after Lu Yang left, a pure and beautiful young girl noticed their shop.

“Huh, ‘Come Again’ BBQ.shop, what an interesting name. You guys, let’s give their business a try, order twenty mutton skewers, and if they taste good, we’ll order more!”

It was Shangguan Yu.
