Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 777 - 751: Sect Mission
Chapter 777: Chapter 751: Sect Mission
As soon as the door was opened, Liang Youshan was seen squatting at the doorway. Seeing Tangyu walking out, Liang Youshan instantly stood up with a wide grin on his face, looking like a fool who had just seen a beautiful bride.
Seeing that smile that was begging for a beating like a chrysanthemum, Tangyu felt an irresistible urge to imprint his size forty-three shoe on Liang Youshan’s face.
Feeling Tangyu’s gaze, Liang Youshan shivered and chuckled nervously, "Haha, boss, no need to get excited, ah. I just haven’t seen you for a month and I really missed you, erm—"
But before Liang Youshan could finish speaking, Tangyu kicked him away. Miss your sister! Being missed by a big man for an entire month would make anyone’s butt clench.
"Wow, boss, just from the strength of that kick, I can tell that your power must have increased tremendously. Hehe, boss, congratulations are in order, truly amazing, absolutely badass. Boss, you’d better not tell me you’ve broken through to the Earthly Realm in one go," Liang Youshan quickly scurried back, looking at Tangyu curiously.
He indeed felt that Tangyu’s strength had increased significantly, and even his aura seemed different. Damn it, he even seemed more handsome than before. How was anyone supposed to live like this? If they walked together in the future, would any girl even give him a second glance?
Jealousy.
Tangyu curled his lip and said, "It’s just the Earthly Realm, after all. A bit of closed-door cultivation, and it’s as easy as eating a meal. If I hadn’t reached the Earthly Realm, how could I have the face to come out?"
"..." Liang Youshan was hit hard, his heart aching as though it was about to bleed.
"This... Boss, I won’t say anything, I’ll just kneel for you. Big props to you, you really broke through to the Earthly Realm?" Liang Youshan was incredibly shocked. The Earthly Realm was like a legend to him; it was something unattainable yet longed-for.
He could never have imagined that Tangyu would break through to the Earthly Realm so quickly, and he suddenly felt his own presence grow. With a boss in the Earthly Realm covering for him, everything was different, and he had to stand tall.
Tangyu patted Liang Youshan on the shoulder and said, "Keep calm, stay low-key."
"Right, right, calm and low-key. I promise I won’t let the whole world know that you have broken through to the Earthly Realm," Liang Youshan nodded repeatedly, feeling genuinely ecstatic, as if he himself had broken through to the Earthly Realm.
Tangyu asked, "How was your harvest?"
Speaking of his harvest, Liang Youshan suddenly blushed with shame: "It’s a far cry compared to what you’ve achieved, boss. Just an Upper Grade Spirit Stone plus tens of thousands of Tempering Spirit Pills, and I’ve barely managed to reach the Eighth Layer of the Innate Realm, barely, that is, cough cough."
Tangyu’s eyes sparkled as he smiled and said, "Yo, not bad at all. I thought you’d only manage to reach the Seventh Level of the Innate Realm. It seems you’ve done quite well, the Upper Grade Spirit Stone I gave you wasn’t wasted. Keep working hard. Next time, I’ll give you a few more Spirit Stones to help you reach the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm as soon as possible. Without that level of strength, you’re really not up to par."
Now that Tangyu had broken through to the Earthly Realm, his perspectives had naturally changed. Without the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm, he really didn’t think much of others.
"Ah—thank you so much, boss," Liang Youshan’s eyes lit up like fireworks.
Liang Youshan scratched his head and added, "Cough cough, actually, I also had some Immortal Brew given by Sister Bai, and there’s still more than half a bottle left. Next time I get the chance to make a push, I should be able to break through to the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm."
Tangyu nodded. Sister Bai’s Immortal Brew was indeed precious, but Tangyu was too reluctant to use it himself; such good things were naturally reserved for Lin Feifei and the others.
"Don’t be too hasty, first stabilize your current Realm," Tangyu advised.
Liang Youshan nodded, "I was thinking the same thing. Definitely can’t rush these things; otherwise, it might backfire. By the way, boss, what’s our plan now?"
This question also made Tangyu ponder: "There’s just over a month left until the Outer Sect competition. You can certainly reach the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm in this short time. But just reaching the Ninth Layer won’t make you shine in the Outer Sect competition. To secure a good performance and be promoted exceptionally to an Inner Sect Disciple, your strength must improve further. As for me, I can already become an Inner Sect Disciple without participating in the competition. So for the next month or so, let’s focus on increasing your power."
Having Liang Youshan join him in the Inner Gate would naturally be for the best.
Having this helper by his side would make things a lot easier for Tangyu.
Moreover, Tangyu was keen on cultivating Liang Youshan as a future right-hand man.
With Tangyu’s encouragement, Liang Youshan gritted his teeth and said with determination, "Well, a month may be short, but I’m definitely going to give it my all. I absolutely won’t let you down, boss."
Just then, two figures approached; it was none other than Wang Wei and Wu Fei, whom Tangyu had saved a month ago.
The two hurried over and, seeing Tangyu, they showed great respect. Last time, they were unaware of Tangyu’s strength, but after hearing numerous tales about Tangyu during the past month in the Outer Sect, they held him in immense admiration.
"Yo, Wang Weiwu Fei, you’ve arrived," Liang Youshan looked over.
The two walked up to Tangyu’s side and also respectfully greeted him before Wang Wei spoke, "The steward from the Affairs Pavilion had been looking for you a few days ago. Finding that you were in seclusion, they asked us to pass on the message—to visit the Affairs Pavilion once you have come out of seclusion."
Tangyu and Liang Youshan were both slightly startled. The steward from the Affairs Pavilion was looking for them?
The Affairs Pavilion was the power center that managed all manners of affairs outside; if the Pavilion took the initiative to seek them out, it must be something important.
Liang Youshan couldn’t help but ask, "Do you know the specifics of the matter?"
Wang Wei shook his head, "Naturally, we wouldn’t know that. It must be something major. You should head over quickly."
Tangyu nodded, "Let’s go have a look first."
The two of them thus hurriedly made for the Affairs Pavilion. Wang Weiwu Fei stood still, envy written all over his face.
"Tsck tsck, I really envy Liang Youshan. Look, he used to chat and hang out with us all the time, and now it’s completely different. Hanging out with Tangyu has really gotten him somewhere," Wang Wei said enviously.
Wu Fei nodded, "Yeah, in the past, we could still best Liang Youshan, but now we’ve been left far behind. We’re merely at the Fourth Layer of the Innate Realm; the five major powers don’t give a second glance to the likes of us. Without someone to back us up, life is indeed tough on the outside—it’s too hard to get by. We’ve been in the Outer Sect for almost three years now and it remains the same. If it goes on like this, our years will be wasted and we’ll see no future. This isn’t the life we want."
"Sigh, yes, it’s not what we want. How can we break this situation? Wu Fei, we brothers are not content with this either. How about we also follow Tangyu? With our relationship with Liang Youshan, there should be no problem if he is willing to stand up for us," Wang Wei suggested.
Wu Fei laughed, "Haha, you really think just like me."
"Haha, then that’s the decision, happily made. Let’s go find Liang Youshan later. No, we should call him Brother Shan," Wang Wei also laughed.
Tangyu and Liang Youshan soon arrived at the Affairs Pavilion, a place neither had been before.
As soon as they arrived, a steward in his fifties or sixties came over, waved at them, and then led them to a room. He looked at them and said, "Tangyu Liang Youshan, you’ve been in the Outer Sect for a while now, and you should know that Outer Sect Disciples have their duties. The Sect has a mission for you, and expects you to complete it diligently. If you do well, naturally there will be rewards, and if not, there will be some minor punishments. Understand?"
Tangyu smirked, it turned out to be a sect mission: "Of course, we understand. It is our duty as disciples to take on some of the Sect’s burdens. We guarantee that the mission will be completed."
The steward nodded with a smile, "Good. Since you both understand what’s at stake, I’ll save my breath. Your mission is to go to Liucheng. Our Sect has received intelligence that an evil force is causing chaos in Liucheng, seeking to control it from the shadows. Many of our Outer Sect Disciples there have fallen victim to them. Moreover, disciples from other forces have also suffered greatly. You’re given one month to eradicate this malicious force. Any problems?"
"One month? Totally no problem," Tangyu smirked, amused by the mission. It was indeed quite coincidental.
"Alright, then you should prepare to set out as soon as possible. Report back to the Sect if you encounter any major issues. For minor ones, just deal with them yourselves," the steward waved them off.
Tangyu said, "Understood. We’ll be on our way then."
"Off you go," the steward nodded.
Tangyu and Liang Youshan swiftly left the Affairs Pavilion. Once outside, Liang Youshan grinned mischievously and teased Tangyu, "Heh, what’s truly destined by the heavens? This is destiny at work. Haha, boss, I feel like your connection with that Xinyue beauty is not yet over; fate itself seems intent on bringing you two together again. Tsck tsck, truly envious of a match made in heaven."
Tangyu touched his nose, "Am I that sort of person?"
Liang Youshan looked seriously at Tangyu, "Although I hate to say it, I’ve got to admit, boss, you really are that kind of person."
"Scram—" Tangyu kicked Liang Youshan. How could he be that kind of person?
Wasn’t it more often that he couldn’t help himself when those beauties threw themselves at him? Was he supposed to just push them away?
That kind of cruelty was definitely not something Tangyu was capable of.
Liang Youshan laughed loudly, "Haha, exactly. And that Tang Guo, the little beauty, is also quite something. If you, boss, aren’t interested, then I won’t be polite, wa haha. Cough... boss, don’t hit me, I was wrong, I dare not anymore. They’re all yours, boss."
Tangyu slapped Liang Youshan, "Don’t get too cocky. Let’s go get our things and set off. This mission is definitely not going to be easy, and I’ve got a bad feeling, like someone’s setting us up. But since we can’t avoid it, the only option is to complete it."
