Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 802: The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s Forest of Formidable Subordinates and Troops

Chapter 802: The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s Forest of Formidable Subordinates and Troops

Lu Yang felt that he was a mere Intermediate Nascent Soul cultivator and truly could not shoulder the responsibilities of being the ruler of both the Demon Region and the East Sea.

“Aiya, they’re just tokens of Little Ling’s and Lianyi’s heartfelt sentiments. It’s merely the Demon Region and the East Sea; just accept them.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy waved it off breezily. “If you really don’t dare to take them, this immortal can accept them on your behalf.”

Clearly, while Lu Yang dared not accept them, there were plenty of others who would dare to.

Lu Yang ruminated over it. The Everlasting is the ruler of the Heavenly Court and the founding emperor of the Great Dou Dynasty, now concurrently the ruler of both the Demon Region and the East Sea—the authority she wields is unrivalled.

“Immortal Fairy, even if you accept them, would you actually manage them?” Lu Yang recalled that the Everlasting Immortal Fairy had only been in charge of the North Star due to her dislike for management in ancient times. Even that had been forced upon her by the Four Ancient Immortals.

Lu Yang suspected that forcing the North Star upon the Everlasting Immortal Fairy might have simply been to prevent her from running everywhere aimlessly and to provide her a stable residence.

“What’s so difficult about management? I can have Little Ling and Lianyi manage the East Sea and the Demon Region.”

Although the Everlasting Immortal Fairy didn’t know how to manage, she was brilliant at putting the right people to use.

“Everlasting-jiejie, could you let us see where you usually live?” Jiang Lianyi asked.

“Sure, sure!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy naturally agreed.

Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi each projected a wisp of spiritual consciousness, which darted into Lu Yang’s mental space.

“Come, come, treat this place like your own home. Sit wherever you like.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy enthusiastically hosted the two half-immortals.

She had long since drained the seawater from the mental space. Now, Lu Yang’s mental space had reverted to its original pink and tender appearance. Against a wall lay a bed, along with other furniture like tables, chairs, and benches.

Lu Yang watched all this silently.

Exactly whose mental space is this?

Only after sitting down did Jiang Lianyi remember that her purpose for coming wasn’t simply to meet Ao Ling. “Little Ling, just what happened with the immortal battle in the East Sea? Who is targeting you?”

Ao Ling frowned, pondering for a moment. “It’s quite complicated to explain this matter. If I tell you everything, you’ll be in danger too. Here’s what. I’ll tell you only the parts I can.

“Back then, after Hubby and the other three immortals fought the murderer, you entered a play-dead state, while I followed Hubby to establish the Ember Legacy Dynasty...”

“Hold on a moment.” Jiang Lianyi interrupted Ao Ling after just one sentence. “Didn’t we agree back then that we would both use the Play-Dead Technique?”

Great Xia Imperial Palace.

After Jiang Ping’an finished plowing with a hoe, he sat on a small stool to wipe his sweat and look up at the visitor. “Fellow Daoist Yun, what brings you here?”

Yun Zhi took out a palm-sized red package from her sleeve. Unwrapping the red cloth, she revealed an exquisitely crafted Dragon-Patterned Bracelet.

Jiang Ping’an was drawn to the bracelet’s design. “Hmm? What exquisite craftsmanship. Who refined this?”

“This is an immortal artifact refined by the Heaven Mandate Immortal. When its energy is fully charged, it can withstand several attacks from an immortal.”

“Ho, that’s an extraordinary item.” For an immortal artifact to reach this level, it could be considered the pinnacle. “I see the bracelet’s energy is depleted. You want me to recharge it?”

“That is my intention.”

Jiang Ping’an turned the Dragon-Patterned Bracelet over in his hands a couple of times. “Sure. Then allow me to study it.”

While examining it, Jiang Ping’an recalled the recent intelligence he had received and initiated a casual conversation. “Fellow Daoist Yun, who did you fight in the East Sea? Was it one of the Four Ancient Immortals?”

Due to the immortal trait of oblivion, the world could only remember that an immortal battle occurred in the East Sea but not recall the specifics.

Yun Zhi shook her head. “It was an ancient immortal, but not one of the Four Ancient Immortals. Her origins are not something that’s convenient to elaborate on. If you know too much, she will kill you too.”

“Oh? Do you think I am inferior to that immortal?” Jiang Ping’an’s tone carried a faint trace of pride.

As the founding emperor, his contributions to Great Xia’s stability over a hundred thousand years were immense. This was due to both his wise strategies and his profound cultivation.

Yun Zhi nodded. “It’s true that you can’t defeat her.”

“Alright then, if you say so.” Jiang Ping’an was like a wilted eggplant, lowering his head and accepting reality.

~~~

When Yun Zhi returned to the Dao-Seeking Sect with the fully recharged Dragon-Patterned Bracelet, she saw Lu Yang, Ao Ling, and Jiang Lianyi lying neatly on the ground in a row.

Yun Zhi knocked on Lu Yang’s forehead, knocking everyone out of his mental space.

“Big Senior Sister, you’re finally back!” Lu Yang was overjoyed to see Yun Zhi. Finally, there’s someone reliable to take charge. I really can’t handle the two ancestors alone, much less with the troublemaking Huang Doudou added to the mix.

Earlier, in the mental space, things had nearly come to blows twice.

Yun Zhi handed the Dragon-Patterned Bracelet to Ao Ling, then turned to Jiang Lianyi. “Senior Lianyi, did you come to see Senior Ao Ling?”

Jiang Lianyi snorted coldly. “Who cares about seeing her? I came to ask about intelligence regarding the East Sea.”

Yun Zhi simply uttered “oh” and didn’t comment further.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy excitedly emerged from Lu Yang’s body and began counting heads. “Me, Second-in-Command, Little Ling, Lianyi—mmm, everyone’s here!”

“What do you mean by ‘everyone’s here?’” Lu Yang’s mind hadn’t caught up.

“Our team to challenge Lass Yun is all here, obviously!”

Lu Yang, “...”

No, wait. Immortal Fairy, if you’re going to court death, could you please not drag me along?

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy raised her hand. Although I haven’t yet recovered to my prime and can’t contend with Lass Yun alone, I now have Ao Ling and Lianyi assisting me, plus the Second-in-Command as my strategist. I can somewhat be considered to possess the means to fight Lass Yun.

Seeing this, Lu Yang hastily stopped the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, who was about to swing her hand. “No, no, no! Immortal Fairy, calm down.”

“I am very calm, though,” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy refuted loudly.

“No, no, no! Think about it, Immortal Fairy. We—uh—you all want to fight Big Senior Sister, but not everyone’s here yet.”

“Not everyone’s here? Who else is there?”

Lu Yang kindly reminded her. “The Third-in-Command! As a half-immortal, he’s an integral combat firepower!”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy slapped her forehead. “Oh right, I forgot about him.”

Heaven’s Gate Peak wasn’t far from the commercial district’s barbeque shop. The Everlasting Immortal Fairy could remotely control the Everlasting Immortal.

While the Everlasting Immortal was counting money at the barbeque shop, he sensed the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s summons. It felt as though someone had grabbed the back of his clothes, and his body bent like a shrimp as he flew backward to Heaven’s Gate Peak.

Taking in the grand lineup at Heaven’s Gate Peak, the Everlasting Immortal was visibly stunned.

What’s going on here?

“Greetings, First-in-Command, Second-in-Command. First-in-Command, you called for me?” the Everlasting Immortal asked cautiously, a sense of foreboding welling up within him.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy nodded, stating with confidence. “This immortal has decided to crusade against Lass Yun today. A strategy has already been devised. As a member of our Everlasting Lineage, you must contribute.”

As the big boss, I naturally must reward and punish fairly. “How about this? This immortal will give you a chance to earn merit. You shall be the vanguard to test Lass Yun’s level. If you can defeat Lass Yun, the position of first-in-command will be yours!”

“Ah?”
