The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 533 - 307: Fake vs. Fake_2

Ning Xiaoxian staggered a step, was dragged in front of him, and became a hostage. Tu Jin’s avatar had just let out a roar: "Let go of my junior sister", when he received a transmission from Ning Xiaoxian by his ear: "Don’t rush, let’s see who is coming first; it’s easier to catch fish in muddy waters."

Also due to her shout, both Tu Jin and his avatar pretended to struggle ineffectively, being subdued by the hands of a few people behind Cultivator Fu. As for Qi Zai, ever since it absorbed the Phoenix Crown Feather given by Changtian, it seems to have gained the Divine Skills of its ancestors, making great progress in its Concealing Demon Technique. It was now disguised as a little white bird with low demonic power, and no one took it too seriously, so much so that even Cultivator Fu did not recognize its True Body.

Cultivator Fu couldn’t help but glance at Ning Xiaoxian. When he had reached out to capture her just now, the muscles in the girl’s arm trembled slightly, becoming soft and slippery, dissipating much of his power; he had to use extra strength to capture her firmly. This was her body’s protective response, clearly indicating that she was not as weak as she appeared on the surface.

He gently took the Jade Box from her hand and put it into his chest.

The people from Heaven had landed on Earth. The newcomer was a middle-aged cultivator, followed by a male and a female, who seemed to be disciples. The woman pointed at Cultivator Fu and said to the middle-aged cultivator: "Master, this is the man who stole our Jade Token and took Junior Brother Xu and the others hostage; we don’t know where he has hidden them!" She was young and quite pretty.

The middle-aged cultivator nodded, stepped forward, and said: "I am Kou Yunzhi, the Peak Master of Zuowang Peak of Tianling Sea Pavilion. Which sect’s expert are you, and why do you pretend to be a disciple of my sect to steal the Jade Token?" He saw that the person in front of him had deep cultivation and was not easy to deal with. But the higher the cultivation, the more arrogant the personality, so why would someone stoop to such acts of impersonation and deception? It’s incomprehensible!

Kou Yunzhi’s cultivation was at the Late-stage Divinity Transformation.

Hearing this, Ning Xiaoxian had already roughly understood the situation. Presumably, Cultivator Fu and his accomplices had stolen the Jade Token from the Tianling Sea Pavilion’s disciples and came to claim the Spirit Grasses. Now, by drawing out the smaller problems, they have brought in a more significant issue, as Kou Yunzhi was the reinforcements called by the distressed disciples. However, whether they were cultivators or demons, their ability to judge an opponent’s cultivation was not as directly accurate as Changtian’s. They could only feel that the opponent was quite strong; otherwise, if Kou Yunzhi, at the Divinity Transformation Stage, could see at a glance that Cultivator Fu was a whole realm higher than him, why would he dare to come forward?

She felt depressed in her heart. This team’s actions in the Extremely Yin Land had to be kept secret for the best outcome. Now, not only had a group of robbers arrived, there was also the arrival of a sect leader. Among the eight people present, all had seen her True Face. If this spread, would Yin Jiu You come looking for her?

Cultivator Fu turned his head and gave a fierce glare to one of his subordinates behind him, staring at the small-mustached man until he shamefully lowered his head, then Cultivator Fu said to Kou Yunzhi: "The epidemic is spreading too fast, and we need Junyang Grass for the medicine to cure it. Within ten thousand miles, only the Xuanji Sect can grow it. No matter how I tried to persuade them, your disciples refused to hand over the Jade Token. In our urgency, we resorted to unscrupulous methods, for which I hope Mr. Kou will not blame us. Once the commoners are treated, I shall visit to apologize another day."

Kou Yunzhi said coldly: "Epidemics do not afflict those cultivating immortality; do not use it as an excuse. If I were to injure your disciples and steal the herbs, would you rest easy with me? We might as well settle this matter today."

Like most cultivators, he thought the death of countless mortals was merely the death of mortals. Those who cultivate immortality are almost immune to worldly diseases and calamities, so why should they be empathetic and compassionate? He didn’t believe that someone would go to such lengths just to claim herbs to treat mortals. His one sentence had greatly offended Ning Xiaoxian.

Cultivator Fu laughed loudly: "How indifferent to others’ troubles! Well then, these three Disciples in my hand are guards of the Xuanji Sect’s fields. If they were to be injured on your account, do you think the Xuanji Sect would still be willing to do business with the Tianling Sea Pavilion?"

Ning Xiaoxian gave a sidelong glance, and Tu Jin’s avatar immediately started shouting: "Immortal Master Kou, please save us!"

Kou Yunzhi immediately saw three people held in his hand, but didn’t know their significance. Now, upon hearing it, his brow furrowed. The Xuanji Sect was renowned in the central and western parts of the Nan Zhanbu Continent for Alchemy. Whether in cultivation or fighting, Elixirs are indispensable. Therefore, no one wanted to offend the Xuanji Sect without reason. If indeed due to his cause these three disciples died, how could the Xuanji Sect let it rest, and Tianling Sea Pavilion would likewise blame him.

The Green Jade Token could only exchange a few ’Qi’ level Spirit Grasses; would he really cause a commotion over this? Moreover, each person opposite him had a high level of Dao, and although he had a cultivation of the Divinity Transformation Stage, he was outnumbered. Kou Yunzhi weighed his options and understood that it was not worth offending the person in front of him, but pride required saving face, particularly with two disciples witnessing everything.

Before he could speak, Cultivator Fu already spoke clearly: "Do not worry, your sect’s disciples are being well cared for here and are not harmed. After I return, I will release them all, and within ten days I will personally come to Tianling Sea Pavilion to apologize face to face. Mr. Kou, what do you think? This entrance Token from the Heavenly Residence will serve as my compensation for my misuse of the Green Jade Token." With a flip of his right hand, a pale red Token lay in his palm. He did not wish to delay here any longer to avoid complications. After all, this was Xuan Ji Sect’s territory. (To be continued.
