Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 106: Triumphant Return

“How did you use my power?” Yun Zhi looked at Lu Yang, somewhat puzzled. From what Lu Yang described, it doesn’t sound like he was qualified to access such a profound and complex spell like the Divine Invocation Technique.

“Uh... I simply happened to obtain a set of Animal Form Fist. When I was practicing, I thought of how Animal Form Fist is a type of fist technique that mimics a target, so why do I have to limit myself to mimicking animals? Humans can also be imitated. Among all the people I know, you are the most powerful, Big Senior Sister, so I decided to copy you. That was how I obtained your power.”

Yun Zhi, “...” She had been proficient in spells and techniques since her childhood and was considered a prodigy. Not only could she learn any spell after one look, she would also correct their flaws to make them even more impeccable. She even derived many long-lost spells such as the Divine Invocation Technique.

But I have really never encountered a situation like Lu Yang’s.

“Even if I share a sliver of my power with you, it’s not something the current you can bear. Don’t use this type of fist technique without good reason.”

Lu Yang could discern the underlying connotation in Yun Zhi’s words—solve your own problems; don’t call me over unless necessary.

“And you, leave Lu Yang’s body.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s attitude firmed up, a rare occurrence for her. She shook her head as she refused, “I can’t leave him.”

“Hmm?” Yun Zhi raised her voice by two degrees.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy hastily explained, “I was just resurrected, and my immortal soul is weak. I need a body to reside in. Since Lu Yang called out my name and revived me, this has engendered a special karmic relationship between us, forcing me to reside within him. Only until this special karmic tie disappears and my immortal soul strengthens can I leave his mental realm.”

Lu Yang pondered, “Is it something similar to a ten-month pregnancy term?”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy rebuked angrily, “Can’t you raise a more fitting example?!”

Lu Yang shrugged. I lack imagination and can’t think of a better example.

“Alternatively, I can also directly shatter your immortal soul and then resurrect you myself.” Yun Zhi’s gaze landed on the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, which the latter felt was like a tremendous pressure weighing down on her.

“That won’t do. How did you learn my name? From Lu Yang. This means that Lu Yang is essentially still the one who resurrected me. Your method wouldn’t work.”

Yun Zhi fell silent for a moment before forming a seal with one hand and casting a golden mark that imprinted itself into Lu Yang’s mental space. It then became fainter, eventually vanishing.

“This is...”

“This is a soul mark I have branded in Lu Yang. As soon as you try to act against him, this mark will be activated and shatter your immortal soul. If that happens, you'll just have to hope some other fool calls out your name correctly another three hundred thousand years later.” Yun Zhi’s tone was thick with warning.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy shuddered. “Actually, you don’t have to be so wary of me. After my immortal soul recovers, I can directly reconstruct an immortal body, so I wouldn’t need to take over a body then. Besides, I need to sleep to regain my strength, and I don’t know when I’ll wake up.” She yawned as she spoke.

“Immortals can get sleepy too?” Lu Yang was surprised.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy kept yawning. “Isn’t it all because of the fight just now that depleted most of my strength...” Her eyelids drooped and she began to nod off. “Goodnight, don’t wake me up until the end of the world.”

Yun Zhi confirmed that the Everlasting Immortal Fairy was truly asleep before leaving the mental space, manifesting in the real world in her soul state.

“Thank you for going through the trouble, Big Senior Sister!” Meng Jingzhou greeted Yun Zhi with deference he never knew he had.

“Hello, Big Senior Sister.” Man Gu was as honest as ever. Although I have never done anything bad, I don’t know why I can’t help but be scared whenever I see Big Senior Sister.

“Don’t tell anyone about the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s resurrection.”

“Yes!” the two of them as well as the old horse chorused.

“Also, don’t dawdle and indulge in fun on the road. Hurry back to the Dao-Seeking Sect!” With that, Yun Zhi’s soul transformed into a streak of light and returned to the Dao-Seeking Sect to continue with the meeting.

The trio put away thoughts of having fun as they got onto the horse carriage and hurriedly left.

“Hmm? Why are we moving so fast?” Through the carriage window, Meng Jingzhou could see that the scenery outside was changing ten times more rapidly than before!

The old horse totally discarded its previously sluggish pace and galloped at lightning speed, employing spatial spells to traverse through space, its speed so rapid that it was almost flying. The journey which would have originally taken several days now took less than half a day to reach the Dao-Seeking Sect.

The old horse could tell that Yun Zhi’s last sentence to hurry back to the Dao-Seeking Sect wasn’t directed at the trio but at itself.

“Haha, Dao-Seeking Sect, I’m back!” Meng Jingzhou spread his arms and guffawed, somewhat feeling like he was a scholar who had returned to his hometown in glorious silk robes.

The three of us have endured humiliation and slaved away in the diabolic creed, arduously pretending to be bad guys. What for? It’s so that we can earn contribution points and show off how amazing we are!

As such, the first thing the trio did upon returning to the Dao-Seeking Sect was to head to the Great Mission Hall to exchange for contribution points. They swaggered in with their heads held high and chests puffed out, disregarding anyone else, as if they were three big crabs that had just come ashore.

Inside the Great Mission Hall, tons of missions gathered from various places plastered the walls, with disciples searching for suitable missions.

Lu Yang noticed that the mission to locate the winged tiger was still up on the wall. It looks like Daoist Li Hong from the Mountain Sea Pass has yet to find his beloved little pet. I no longer see the mission regarding the suspected discovery of a cave domain on Kunwu Mountain, likely because exploration was completed.

There were also new missions available, such as reported sightings of Nascent Soul diabolic cultivators that needed to be eliminated, some discoveries of ancient ruins that required the formation of teams for exploration, and divorce disputes between experts that requested mediation.

The senior male disciple on front desk duty noticed their amusing gait and teased, “Have these three junior brothers saved the world?”

Lu Yang tried to reply modestly, “Pretty much. We’ve just completed a confidential mission and need to report to First Elder.”

The senior male disciple’s expression turned stern. Completing a secret mission is of great importance and not something I can handle. No one would dare joke about such a thing. “First Elder is currently in a meeting in the Discussion Hall. Senior Brother Dai is overseeing the Great Mission Hall for him. What about reporting to him instead?”

The meeting in the Discussion Hall had been ongoing for more than half a day, but there were no signs of it ending anytime soon. The Great Mission Hall was located on Reward Punishment Peak, which First Elder was in charge of. When First Elder wasn’t around, Dai Bufan would sit in for him.

“We’ll have to trouble you to notify him.”

When Dai Bufan heard the message from his junior brother, he was quite baffled. I don’t remember assigning any secret mission to Lu Yang and the others. Could it have been arranged by Shifu? That doesn’t make sense though. Shifu would always inform me about such matters. Suppressing his confusion, he said, “Let them in.”

“Yes.”

The trio were invited into the core zone of the Great Mission Hall. Dai Bufan was reclining in a chair and flipping through documents that summarized intelligence from various places, some of which were possible locations for a mission.

Dai Bufan set down the documents and picked up a teacup filled with freshly brewed Wudao Enlightenment Tea.[1] “Alright, tell me, what have you done?”

Making an effort to sound cultured, Man Gu kept it succinct. “We’ve defected to a diabolic creed.”

“Pft!” Meng Jingzhou shot a glare at Man Gu and clarified, “Don’t listen to Man Gu. We didn’t defect to a diabolic creed; we joined one.”
