The Arrogant Immortal-Chapter 46 - I Really Didnt Trick It

Just as Xie Jiu Niang and the others were discussing what to plant, a disciple from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall came over for registration.

The registration went smoothly, and there was no difficulty.

Xie Jiu Niang, by herself, reserved twenty plots of top-grade spiritual fields, which made the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple look at her several times.

The disciple asked with a smile, “Is Xie Shimei the first to reach Shihao Mountain?”

“Yes, the Little Immortal Crane I rode on is awesome; it runs really fast.” Xie Jiu Niang credited all the success to the immortal crane.

Upon hearing this, the expression of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple turned odd.

Sensing something amiss, Xie Xu gave the disciple a bottle of Spirit-Gathering Pills and asked, “Could the elder brother possibly enlighten me a bit?”

Xie Jiu Niang also felt something was off.

Within the sect, seniority was based on strength. If the cultivation level was the same, then the time one joined the sect was used for addressing each other.

For instance, both the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple and Xie Xu were at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, but since the disciple had joined the sect before Xie Xu, Xie Xu had to address him as senior brother. On the other hand, he referred to Xie Xu as junior brother.

If Xie Xu were to break through to Foundation Establishment first, then the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple would have to change his address to uncle-master.

The Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple returned the Spirit-Gathering Pills to Xie Xu, a smile in his eyes, “Junior brother, no need for formalities. It’s just that little sister is unaware, your tricking of the immortal crane has spread throughout the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.”

Xie Jiu Niang defensively retorted, “How did I trick it? Did I? We agreed on that bottle of Spirit-Gathering Pills, and I did give it to the crane.”

“But you only put one pill in it.”

As soon as the disciple said this, an immediate silence fell around them.

Xie Si Niang and Xie Xu, as if seeing something rare, began sizing up Xie Jiu Niang from head to toe.

Xie Jiu Niang, with a face like a bitter gourd, spread her hands helplessly, “I really didn’t deceive it, it’s just a misunderstanding.”

They were all clever people. Who couldn’t guess the truth? It probably wasn’t outright trickery, but there was undoubtedly some misleading involved.

Xie Jiu Niang looked innocent and changed the subject, “Elder brother, do you have seeds for sale?”

“Yes, what do you want to buy?” the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple inquired.

Xie Jiu Niang said, “I’ll take twenty mu of spiritual rice seeds.”

“Three spirit stones per mu, sixty in total for a good deal,” the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall disciple was happy, handing over the seeds to Xie Jiu Niang and also giving her a stack of Sound Transmission Talismans, “Oh right, little sister, my name is Li Jiaxing. Here’s my Sound Transmission Talisman. Remember to look for me next time you want to buy seeds, I’ll give you a discount.”

Xie Jiu Niang accepted the Sound Transmission Talisman, “Will do.”

Like Xie Jiu Niang, Xie Xu and the others bought spiritual rice seeds and exchanged Sound Transmission Talismans with Li Jiaxing.

Only Xie Jiu Niang didn’t give her own Sound Transmission Talisman to Li Jiaxing, because she had none to spare.

After Li Jiaxing left, everyone stood with their seeds, looking at each other in confusion.

They… seemed… to have no idea how to farm?

Xie Jiu Niang put away ten array plates and, seeing that the others hadn’t moved, asked, “Aren’t you all done registering? Why not put away your array plates?”

“Aren’t we supposed to leave them to protect the spiritual fields?” Xie Si Niang was confused.

Xie Jiu Niang was speechless, “What’s there to steal that needs protecting? Activating them would be a needless waste of spirit stones.”

Having spent several decades in the Outer Sect before breaking through to Foundation Establishment in her previous life, she was no stranger to farming. She quickly flipped over two plots of the spiritual fields with a plowing technique and moistened the soil with a rain-bringing technique.

Then she took out the spiritual rice seeds and, controlling them with her divine sense, planted them at a speed unimaginable to others.

The two plots of spiritual fields were planted in no time.

Xie Xu and the others were left gaping in awe.

“Incredible!”

“Xiaojiu is so capable!”

“Yeah, compared to her, I’m just useless… We all have brains, so why is hers different?”

“Who needs brains, just follow Xiaojiu and do as she does!”

Everyone headed to their own spiritual fields, imitating and turning the soil with their techniques.

Not understanding is not a problem, the willingness to learn is what counts.

Xie Jiuniang saw them but didn’t pay attention and continued sowing. In fact, she had a lot of things to do and wasn’t very keen on farming.

But she couldn’t ignore it.

The Lin Family and the Mo Family would be watching her every move.

After finishing the twenty spiritual fields, it was already approaching evening.

Xie Jiuniang set up a Spirit Gathering Array.

With sufficient spiritual energy, the seeds would sprout earlier.

The Xie Family disciples became numb to it, Xiaojiu was too domineering. So what if she understood formations, should they start learning them in advance?

The sect had schools for the Four Arts of Cultivators, which new disciples could attend for free in the first three years, and it was quite popular among the disciples.

There were only four ways for an Outer Sect Disciple to enter the Inner Sect.

First, achieve Foundation Establishment.

Second, take a mentor.

Third, excel in one of the Four Arts of Cultivators and apply for early admission to the Inner Sect.

Besides the above methods, the last one was to rise to the top ten of the Outer Sect strength rankings. As long as one maintained that position for a year, they could transfer to the Inner Sect.

For Xie Jiuniang, getting into the Inner Sect was not hard.

But she did not want to.

Living on Shihao Mountain was actually the safest.

The geniuses were all in the Inner Sect, with fierce competition; staying away from them was best, as it meant not being overly noticed and avoiding being accidentally harmed as an innocent bystander.

In her past life, after reaching Foundation Establishment and going to the Inner Sect, she found it vexing as she was often inexplicably subjected to the hostility of a group of female cultivators who clung to her relentlessly as if they were brain-diseased.

Sometimes, she wondered…

Had she ever desecrated their ancestors’ graves at some point?

The next day, early morning.

The Tianxu Sect had no rule against new disciples going out; they only needed to report before doing so.

Xie Jiuniang checked her spiritual fields, then hurried to the mid-mountain platform.

On the platform, Immortal Cranes often lingered. They were available for Qi Cultivation disciples to ride in exchange for payment. The problem was, when Xie Jiuniang got there, not a single Immortal Crane was in sight.

Before entering the sect, Xie Jiuniang and her parents had agreed that as long as she wasn’t eliminated, they would wait for her at the sect gate on the fourth day.

Xie Jiuniang wanted her parents to settle in the Sect Market.

There was a large valley over ten miles north of the sect gate.

The Sect Market was inside the valley.

The valley was vast, housing millions. Initially, it was intended for sect higher-ups to settle their families and was protected by a Protective Great Array.

Later on, it developed into the thriving place it is today. However, to settle in the Fangshi, you must be a relative of a Sect Disciple.

Xie Jiuniang left Shihao Mountain and headed toward the peak where the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall was located. At the peak of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, there was a Crane Garden.

Above her head, Immortal Cranes came and went.

Most had people sitting on their backs, none of the small Qi Cultivation disciples were seen using a flight device.

Xie Jiuniang went directly to the Crane Garden.

A great surprise awaited her; she was rejected by the Immortal Cranes, which refused to carry her even when offered elixirs.

Xie Jiuniang’s sorrow flooded her heart like a river flowing in reverse.

“Junior Sister, where do you wish to go? Let me take you,” said a strikingly handsome man.

His eyebrows were like ink paintings, his eyes like stars, his face like peach petals.

He wasn’t dressed in the sect’s robe, but in a simple and clean cyan garment, with ordinary boots and a plain belt, yet he wore it with a nobility that seemed out of this world.

He was suave and elegantly breathtaking.
