Chapter 219 Worries
Am I ignorant?
Listen to this, is this even human language?
As the sect leader of Lingyun Sect, who would dare to say that I am ignorant?
Ok!
The patriarch of the Lingyun Sect, known for his arrogance and lack of scruples, dared to say such a thing.
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but you're not even half as calm as Mu Sen. No wonder your mental state can't compare to his. Look at him, he's already at the Refinement stage, while you're still just at the Nascent Soul stage."
Zhou Yuntian could no longer control himself. Forget about hierarchy, he grabbed the old ancestor's sleeve, opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.
"It's one thing that you can't compare to your senior brother, but you can't even compare to your own disciple. It's not that I, as the patriarch, want to look down on you, but look at your two disciples, both of whom are at the Void Refinement stage. Don't you think you're a bit incompetent?"
what?
Both disciples are at the Void Refinement stage?
He has only taken on two disciples so far, and they are both currently at the Refinement stage.
wrong!
He swallowed hard and finally managed to squeeze out a sentence.
"Our Lingyun Sect now has four Void Refinement stage elders?"
"No, it's six! No, it's seven!"
He doesn't care, he doesn't care anyway!
Tu Shan is a member of the Lingyun Sect.
Anyone who dares to say no, he'll beat them up.
Where did these seven come from?
“Me, your two disciples, Mu Sen and his apprentice, Dongfang Gui, and Tu Shan.”
Zhou Yuntian didn't react for a moment: "Tu Shan? He's not from our Lingyun Sect!"
“You’re an idiot, and you still won’t admit it. You don’t care if she’s from the Lingyun Sect or not. Anyway, her disciples and grand-disciples are all from the Lingyun Sect, so she’s half a member of the Lingyun Sect. There’s no such thing as half a person in this world, so she’s a member of our Lingyun Sect.”
You didn't even bother to try and salvage a Void Refinement stage cultivator. Where did your usual stingy nature go?
Who said you're a turtle who wouldn't take advantage of a bargain? Why are you hiding in your turtle shell now?
Zhao Shizhe couldn't stand his stupid appearance; it was too much of an eyesore.
Zhou Yuntian quickly understood what his ancestor meant, chuckled twice, and his eyes darted around.
“Ancestor, since they can reach the Void Refinement stage, could you send me to that secret place as well? I don’t need to reach the Void Refinement stage, just the Perfect Integration stage will suffice.”
"This won't do. You were one of those who were tested back then. If you didn't pass, who can you blame? Just guard the sect properly! This old Taoist is leaving now."
Zhou Yuntian extended Er Kang's hand: "Ancestor, wait a moment!"
The Misty Immortal Sect.
"We've brought the people back to you. Don't ask any questions or say anything! Just get them to work as soon as possible!"
Fu Buqi frowned, staring at the ground, lost in thought.
Hua Buhui couldn't discern their cultivation levels, since his current cultivation was only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but he could see the cause and effect of this group of people.
If you can't see through him, there's only one possibility: his cultivation level is higher than his.
"The Integration Stage? Zhao Heng has even reached the late Integration Stage."
Qin Tuo frowned as he looked at the five hundred people in front of him.
There is no unstable foundation, nor has there been any deviation from the right path.
Five years, no, two hundred and fifty years.
This is the aura of a time-based formation.
Investigating everyone's condition, their physical bodies have been tempered, their bones and muscles can withstand spiritual power, and their minds are clear.
They've all undergone the cleansing and marrow-refining process, which has improved their aptitude. With the addition of the Heart-Refining Array, it's normal for their cultivation levels to improve as well.
But how did they do it?
"Zhao Heng, can you tell me..."
"Old Qin, don't ask! It's already good enough that you can help so many people improve their strength, don't be greedy!"
Fu Buqi interrupted Qin Tuo's question, saying, "Whoever speaks will die."
Don't be fooled by Tu Shan's easygoing demeanor; it's because none of the three of them have crossed the line.
That first meeting was just a test, yet he dared to poison them all.
If they hadn't admitted their mistake so quickly and given away the spirit stones so readily, they would have been reduced to ashes long ago.
I haven't seen Cheng Lie all these years. No matter how much they provoke him, he doesn't dare to utter a single word, for fear of releasing his spiritual power and dying from the poison.
A person like Tu Shan, who is so vindictive and vengeful, would never be without a backup plan.
Qin Tuo understood Fu Buqi's meaning and had no choice but to wave his hand to let the five hundred people leave.
What do you think about this?
Fu Buqi lay down at an angle, saying nonchalantly, "Watch from the side! Old Qin, this is your last warning. She's not as easy to talk to as you think. Don't end up losing everything. If you're going to court death, don't drag the whole sect down with you."
She said that if anyone dared to leak a single word, she would not let that sect off the hook.
She could do that when she had no power, let alone now that her cultivation level is inferior to both of ours. I'm leaving now!
Qin Tuo's face turned ashen: "I'm only doing this for the sect. Besides, I didn't plan to do anything. I was just asking."
Hua Buhui remained silent, only staring at him; no one knew what she was thinking.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Hua Buhui shook his head: "Elder, you know her abilities. Dealing with you is as easy as lifting a finger for me. Just because you don't have this intention now doesn't mean you won't in the future. Greed grows gradually."
The admonition was like sweet dew poured into his mind, making him even more clear-headed.
"I understand, don't worry! I won't do anything, and I can't do anything."
Qin Tuo didn't know what was wrong with him lately; he was more prone to overthinking than before, but after careful examination, he found nothing unusual.
"Alright, I'm leaving too!"
Hua Buhui watched him leave, closed her eyes, and her thoughts raced.
"Hey!"
Fu Buqi lay down again and sighed heavily.
"Did you figure it out?"
Hua Buhui shook his head.
"Have you checked out their accommodations?"
"No abnormalities!"
Fu Buqi's expression was grave; they had already noticed Qin Tuo's unusual behavior.
No one would believe that Qin Tuo lacked a sense of righteousness for the nation.
No one would believe that he would betray the sect.
However, his state of mind has indeed changed significantly, and if the cause is not found soon, he may go astray.
The Misty Immortal Sect could not bear the consequences of its Void Refinement stage ancestor suffering a qi deviation.
What are you planning to do?
Fu Buqi frowned deeply.
Having guarded the Misty Immortal Sect with Qin Tuo for nearly three thousand years, I don't want my old buddy to go astray.
A hundred years ago, when Hua Buhui predicted the birth of the soul from another world, Qin Tuo's behavior was still quite normal.
I didn't intend to kill it; I just wanted to find it and observe it first.
After all, not every soul from another world is evil.
As Tu Shan came into view, Qin Tuo's thoughts became increasingly extreme, and his behavior became increasingly out of control.
His initial observation turned into a decision to rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free.
The stronger one is, the more stable one's mindset is; changing his mind is definitely not something that can be done overnight.
The fact that the opponent could influence the mind of a Void Refinement stage elder shows how deep their scheme was and how strong they were.
"Don't overlook even the slightest clue."
Hua Buhui nodded slightly.
"I'll go take a look. If it really doesn't work, we'll call in outside help."
Fu Buqi felt a headache coming on. It wasn't easy to find outside help. He didn't even know where Tu Shan was now.
Besides, it's about asking someone for help.
