Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 842: Should Learn More from the Immortal Fairy

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy had initially thought that establishing the Great Dou Dynasty would require some effort. For instance, Yun Zhi and her might need to personally take action, overthrow the Great Xia Dynasty, and set up a new imperial court.

Considering that overthrowing Great Xia couldn’t be solved by force alone and would likely encounter numerous obstacles in practice, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy had been too lazy to establish the Great Dou Dynasty in the outside world.

Who would have thought? Great Xia’s imperial family is so amenable. Whoever I want to be emperor gets to be emperor.

I'm currently the Acting Sect Leader of the Dao-Seeking Sect, the Ruler of the Heavenly Court, and soon to be the founding emperor of the Great Bean Dynasty. The leaders of the three largest factions in the world are all me. This is a level of treatment I hadn’t even enjoyed in ancient times.

That’s why I said there isn’t so much scheming in the world. See? Everyone is a good person.

Lu Yang stared at the Everlasting Immortal Fairy in shock and suspicion. Immortal Fairy, your previous intelligence was all an act, right?”

“Xiao Yangzi, why are you staring at me?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy asked Lu Yang in bewilderment. It’s my first time seeing the Second-in-Command show such an astonished expression.

“N-nothing. I just think you’re quite clever, Immortal Fairy.”

“Of course, this immortal is clever.” Although I don’t understand why the Second-in-Command suddenly said this, hearing him praise my intelligence still makes me happy.

In the real world, Meng Jingzhou was filled with reverence toward the Everlasting Immortal Fairy due to her response. Truly an immortal! Not only has her cultivation been supreme since ancient times, but her emotional intelligence is also so high, leaving others in the dust.

In contrast, it’s such a waste to have the immortal accompany Lu Yang. So many years have passed, yet he hasn’t learned a thing, spending all day just to scheme against me.

He should study properly in his mental space!

Upon hearing the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s response, the expressions of those present changed.

What astuteness! Not only did she skillfully avoid answering, but she also trapped the Second Imperial Prince!

Whether the Second Imperial Prince answers “Lu Yang gets to decide” or “Lu Yang doesn’t get to decide” will be wrong.

If he says the former, it will be treason, a capital offense. If he says the latter, it will imply that Lu Yang is useless, and the Second Imperial Prince will not have the face to befriend him again.

Such scheming, such calculation, combined with such stunning cultivation—no wonder he’s called the number one of the younger generation!

Even the Taciturn Daoist Priest couldn’t achieve this level in this youth!

Fortunately, the Second Imperial Prince was meticulous. Although he was startled by “Lu Yang”’s answer, he continued feigning drunkenness. This way, even if trouble arises in the future, I’ll have an excuse.

To his surprise, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy continued speaking. “If you don’t know who should be emperor, then I shall do it. Would you like to seek a position under me?”

The Second Imperial Prince broke into a cold sweat on the spot and didn’t dare to continue his drunken act.

If I continue pretending, who knows what other treasonous words Lu Yang may utter?

He had heard that back in Luotian Forest, Lu Yang had once boasted conceitedly about wanting to establish a Great Dou Dynasty. Now he’s bringing up this topic again.

Could it be that he had already anticipated my actions back in Luotian Forest?!

What terrifying calculation.

Some jokes Lu Yang can make, but I can’t.

Who is Lu Yang? He’s the next Sect Leader of the Dao-Seeking Sect, highly valued by the half-immortal Yun Zhi. During his disappearance in the East Sea, the Vast Sea Daoist Lord had personally gone to the East Sea to search for him, demonstrating how much importance he places on Lu Yang. Not to mention that Lu Yang had saved the Dragon Ancient Ancestor.

A future immortal sect leader with extremely close ties to three half-immortals—be it in status or background, no one can match him.

As long as Lu Yang only speaks about it, it doesn’t count as real rebellion. Who would dare lay a finger on him?

Not even Emperor Father would dare.

“Fellow Daoist Lu Yang, you jest.” The Second Imperial Prince dared not continue the conversation. If I keep going along with him, I should forget about inheriting the throne; whether I can retain my title as prince will be uncertain.

The Second Imperial Prince’s gaze toward “Lu Yang” held a trace of awe. It’s the first time I’ve encountered a genius whose scheming is even more meticulous than mine.

There are always people beyond people, just like there are skies beyond skies.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy didn’t understand why everyone looked at her with awe. Is it because I’m going to be emperor?

That does make sense.

The Second Imperial Prince changed the subject, pointing at the female dancers again. “Fellow Daoist Lu Yang, are you interested in these dancers? If so, you may take them all back. Dual cultivation with them can also boost your cultivation.”

“What would I want them for?”

Seeing Lu Yang decline, the Second Imperial Prince wasn’t surprised. With a bright pearl like Ye Mengyin setting the standard, these dancers are indeed unlikely to catch his eye.

He clapped his hands. A procession of attendants carrying trays filed out from a side chamber. On the trays were various rare treasures and cultivation secret manuals, all greatly beneficial for cultivation. Any single item would qualify as the highlight of an auction. Even the other invited guests felt a surge of envy at the sight of these treasures.

His Highness really spared no expense, huh?

“I felt an instant connection with Fellow Daoist Lu Yang and have prepared some humble gifts. I hope you will accept them without disdain.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy indeed disdained the gifts. With just a glance, she recognized the origins of these items. They’re of no use to me; even the stones at the entrance of my cave abode are more valuable than these things.

Then again, these things aren’t for my use, but for Lu Yang’s.

In that case, they’re somewhat helpful. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

The Second Imperial Prince had conscientiously prepared these treasures for Lu Yang, aiming to secure a potential ally. If Lu Yang accepts these items, it would indicate he leans toward my side.

The Second Imperial Prince secretly observed Lu Yang’s reaction, feeling extremely nervous.

“Given for free?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy felt that the imperial city truly had many good people.

“Naturally.” The Second Imperial Prince nodded with a smile.

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony. Thank you.”

The lead attendant produced a storage ring, stowed away the items from the trays into it, and respectfully presented it with both hands.

Seeing the Everlasting Immortal Fairy accept the storage ring, the Second Imperial Prince’s smile broadened.

It seems everything he said previously was because he didn’t want to be probed. At the very least, he has accepted these treasures. Even if he doesn’t support me in the future, he won’t oppose me either.

Given for free? One should not accept rewards without merit. How could there truly be free things in this world? Everything comes with a price.

“Immortal Fairy, you shouldn’t have taken those things.” In the mental space, pocket old kid Lu Yang remarked with slight concern. If it were me, I wouldn’t have accepted anything from the Second Imperial Prince.

“Hmm? Why can’t this immortal accept them?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy was puzzled as to why her golden cheat finger was so anxious

“Accepting the gifts is equivalent to you choosing a side.”

“Choosing a side? What side?”

“Eat someone’s food, and the mouth grows quiet; accept someone’s gifts, and the hand grows tame.” Lu Yang tried to explain it as simply as possible.

“Didn’t this immortal confirm before taking them? They were given for free,” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy stated. She acted with caution and left no loopholes.

“Then in the future, if you become enemies, would you attack the Second Imperial Prince?”

“Of course, I would.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy found the Second-in-Command’s question baffling.

“Besides, this immortal didn’t take them for free. I said thank you.”

Lu Yang, “...”

Is my skin too thin? Should I learn more from the Immortal Fairy?
