Chapter 341: Chapter 257: Helping Liu Qing Renew Her Visa_2
The one most surprised among them was Yun Shu. She never expected that, with a moment of inattention, she’d actually become the Supreme Elder of a sect!
However, slightly awkward was the fact that Yun Shu, the Supreme Elder, had the exact same level of cultivation as Liang Lu, the True Disciple. Both were at the Divinity Transformation Perfection Realm.
This was the first time she realized the importance of cultivation level.
If Liang Lu’s cultivation were to rise even a bit more, she, the Supreme Elder, would be worse off than a True Disciple.
“Jiang Cheng, don’t tell anyone at Taixu Sect that you’re my disciple,” Yun Shu hastily distanced herself from Jiang Cheng.
As long as her identity as Jiang Cheng’s master wasn’t discovered, she wouldn’t need to work hard at cultivating. Being at Divinity Transformation Perfection wasn’t embarrassing; what was embarrassing was being the master of Sect Master Jiang.
“Master, if I’m not your disciple, then what am I?”
“You’re my master,” Yun Shu, pointing at a group of girls, said, “Besides, you already have so many, one more won’t make a difference.”
“Master, isn’t there a chance that with just a little effort, everything will be fine?” Jiang Cheng urged her to study.
But Yun Shu had her own logic: “Why go to the trouble of cultivating if it can be solved with a single sentence?”
“Alright, you win.”
Jiang Cheng, accompanied by Liu Qing, spent half a month playing in Taixu Sect, during which time Liang Lu and Lin Yao took turns acting as tour guides.
Liang Lu and Lin Yao were seed players of Taixu Sect, not as leisurely as Jiang Cheng, so after half a month, he found his equally leisurely “disciple Yun Shu” to look after Liu Qing.
As for Jiang Cheng himself, he went back to Tongtian Sect early to discuss Liu Qing’s identity with Yun Shu’s father.
Jiang Cheng had already prepared two plans. The first was naturally a blissful retirement at Tongtian Sect, and the second was starting a business at Dayan Sect.
Truth be told, Dayan Sect would be famous with a snake as a pillar, and certainly not inferior to any ordinary first-rate sect.
Jiang Cheng didn’t have an invitation this time but still smoothly arrived at the Wan Yue Mountain Range and found Yun Zaiyuan.
It wasn’t that his reputation had grown so much that he could “directly reach the heavens,” but rather because of Yun Shu. He had traveled this path often enough to become quite familiar with the people of the Wan Yue Mountain Sect.
Everyone knew Jiang Cheng was seeking Yun Zaiyuan because of Yun Shu, and Yun Zaiyuan himself was no exception.
“What’s up with Yun Shu this time? Is she about to change her mind, or is she realizing her mistakes,or is she preparing to come and apologize?”
With those words, Yun Zaiyuan blocked any explanation Jiang Cheng might have given.
He wanted to see what excuse Jiang Cheng would come up with this time.
This time, he wouldn’t be easily deceived.
Jiang Cheng explained, “Elder, you misunderstood. My master is doing quite well and doesn’t plan to admit her wrongs and return home. I’m here to discuss a different matter.”
Yun Zaiyuan was still more concerned about his daughter, thinking to himself, it’s fine if Yun Shu doesn’t come home, but couldn’t you have used a descriptor other than “quite well” to describe her situation?
“What’s the matter? If it’s something minor, you might find it more useful to speak with some of my drinking buddies instead of me,” Yun Zaiyuan offered.
His words weren’t meant to deceive Jiang Cheng; indeed, he generally avoided meddling in minor issues because they could easily turn into major ones.
“This matter is not minor, and only you can handle it, Elder,” Jiang Cheng persisted.
“Oh? Let’s hear it,” Yun Zaiyuan said with interest. He was curious to know what issue the young cultivator had that required his involvement, as he was effectively one of the highest-ranking officials in Tongtian Sect, with real duties more significant than persuading his daughter to return home, such as dealing with sect affairs that could impact countless cultivators in the Cultivation World.
Could Jiang Cheng really have come into contact with something at that level?
Jiang Cheng spoke seriously, “Elder Yun, to be frank, when I was still a high school student, I accidentally came into contact with another esteemed senior.”
“Who?”
“Liu Qing.”
“Your little girlfriend?”
Yun Zaiyuan had a recollection of Liu Qing, as she had been one of the main characters in a past incident. He immediately connected her to Jiang Cheng when they met.
Jiang Cheng didn’t deny Yun Zaiyuan’s interpretation, but emphasized, “Senior Liu Qing is a formidable individual from the Mount Tian Demon Race.”
“Oh, a monster. That’s not a big issue. As long as it can take human form, it counts as a free romance. It will at most affect your career prospects within the sect,” Yun Zaiyuan mused.
Yun Zaiyuan wondered what was so pressing about this matter that required such formality. Seems young people are just too impatient after all.
“Her identity as a monster is one aspect, but more importantly, it’s her level of cultivation,” Jiang Cheng added.
“Are you trying to say she concealed some of her cultivation and infiltrated our sect? That is a serious matter, but it’s still not up to the level where I need to intervene. How about this, I can introduce you to a senior from the Monster Hall to discuss the details with you,” Yun Zaiyuan suggested.
Once again, Jiang Cheng bowed respectfully, “Elder Yun, I have looked into it, and the Monster Hall will not be able to manage Liu Qing’s cultivation level.”
Yun Zaiyuan frowned, “Monster Hall is the highest organization through which the Immortal Sect connects with the Demon Race’s affairs; lower than the Mahayana Realm should handle everything. Could it be that Liu Qing possesses the cultivation of the Mahayana Realm?”
“Yes, that’s correct.”
Jiang Cheng’s answer was simple and unadorned.
But Yun Zaiyuan found it hard to believe.
What kind of joke was this?
If Liu Qing was of the Mahayana Realm, wouldn’t that make her the same realm as him?
Besides, how many from the Demon Race were at the Mahayana level?
How could there be one running into human territory, snuggling and hugging with him, Jiang Cheng, in the woods?
Wait a minute…
Speaking of the woods, Yun Zaiyuan suddenly remembered that he had indeed sensed a strange Mahayana presence.
Could it be that what Jiang Cheng said was true?
The more Yun Zaiyuan thought about it, the more frightened he became. A strange Mahayana mingling within the Immortal Sect—if it initiated an indiscriminate attack, what a terrible loss would that be?
No, that’s not right!
Yun Zaiyuan then thought of something even more horrid than an indiscriminate attack. After all, considering the length of time that certain Mahayana had been within the Immortal Sect, evidently no such attack had happened.
But something else had indeed occurred—so why would this Mahayana cultivator be whispering sweet nothings with Jiang Cheng in the woods?
This revelation was a hundred times more shocking to Yun Zaiyuan than any indiscriminate attack!
That was a Mahayana Realm cultivator from the Demon Race!
To say that they could move mountains and fill seas with a mere gesture wasn’t an exaggeration.
And the result?
Being pressed against a tree and kissed by Jiang Cheng?
What was Jiang Cheng then?
Could he be an immortal descended to earth?
“Are you serious?”
Yun Zaiyuan sought confirmation from Jiang Cheng.
As a cultivator of the Mahayana Realm, he was confident in seeing through Jiang Cheng’s hesitation and lies.
Yet Jiang Cheng spoke with unwavering conviction, “Liu Qing really is of the Mahayana. However, she has never done any harm under my restriction. Please rest assured, senior.”
Yun Zaiyuan wanted to ridicule: You, a mere Divinity Transformation, restrain a Mahayana?
But then he thought, it might indeed be possible for Jiang Cheng to restrain her, given all that had transpired. What else could be impossible?
Yun Zaiyuan furrowed his brows; he had just tried to locate Liu Qing using his Divine Sense within the Tongtian Sect but found no trace of her. Unless Liu Qing was deliberately avoiding his Divine Sense, or she was outside the range of his Divine Sense, there was no reason why he couldn’t find her.
“Where is Liu Qing? Is she not in Tongtian Sect right now?”
Jiang Cheng replied, “Replying to senior, Liu Qing and master are currently enjoying themselves at the Taixu Sect.”
“With whom? Little Shu?”
Yun Zaiyuan suddenly stood up, agitated at the mention of his darling daughter. How could he not be?
Jiang Cheng explained, “Please rest assured, senior, Liu Qing knows the importance of moderation, and master will definitely take good care of her.”
She can’t even take care of herself, and she’s supposed to take care of someone else?
Yun Zaiyuan didn’t believe Jiang Cheng’s words. Calming down, he asked, “You put Liu Qing and Little Shu together, and today you specifically sought me out. You must have something for which you want my help, right?”
Jiang Cheng said with a smile, “To be frank, there is indeed a favor I would like to ask of senior. Liu Qing and I have gotten used to our life habits, and having secured an idle elder position within my sect, I really do not wish to start struggling anew. I hope the senior could discuss with the other elders in the sect to let us lead a peaceful life within the sect.”
Yun Zaiyuan fell silent for a moment, then said, “Do you realize what you are saying? She is an extremely unstable factor.”
“I know, but if you were to cast her out of Tongtian Sect, she would certainly become more unstable than she is now.”
“This matter is too big; I need to discuss it with the other mountain masters.”
“Alright, I will wait for the seniors to come to a conclusion, then I’ll go to Taixu Sect to request master and Liu Qing to return,” Jiang Cheng responded.
Without saying anything more, Yun Zaiyuan left Jiang Cheng standing there and vanished in an instant.
