Chapter 50 The Mess
In the evening, Li Yanmo sat on a tree stump and meditated as usual. The experience in Risheng City that night had unlocked his bottleneck. Li Yanmo could feel that as long as he worked harder, he would be able to break through to the seventh level of Qi training.
Just as Li Yanmo was concentrating on breaking through, a voice floated from under the wooden stake.
"Master, why do you want to practice instead of sleep?"
Li Yanmo looked down and saw Jian Xin, who was supposed to go to bed, standing under the wooden stake, with his head raised, his scarlet eyes staring straight at him, as clear as ever, like a mirror.
"Because Master must improve his cultivation," Li Yanmo put his hands on his knees and let out a long breath, remembering the big hand that fell from Xiangmo Venerable that night.
Hopelessness, powerlessness to fight back, human life is worthless.
As the sect's combat force, Li Yanmo felt from the bottom of his heart that he had been too leisurely during this period and lacked a sense of crisis. He was just a small Qi training cultivator, and Jian Xin was only at the Qi training level. His clever tricks were not as effective as his fists.
At least Venerable Xiangmo has proved this.
If it weren't for the intervention of Fairy Sister, Venerable Wan Xiangmo would have been able to break the impasse with his fists, refine everyone, and truly reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
"Then... why didn't the master urge us to practice?" Jian Xin's eyes were filled with doubt.
"Boss, since you have become my disciples, I, as your master, must be responsible for your future and must not lead you astray."
Li Yanmo stretched out his hand and pointed towards the starry sky.
"Practicing to become an immortal is the right way, but it is not the only way, and it is not worth investing everything you have in it."
"I don't want you to look back and find that your life was nothing but cultivation, with nothing worth remembering."
Jian Xin was slightly startled, and his scarlet eyes rippled like a lake.
After hesitating for a moment, Jian Xin put his hands behind his back, kicked the stone away with his right foot, and turned his back to Li Yanmo.
"Master...have you ever thought about letting that fairy sister become the backer of our sect?"
Li Yanmo was stumped by Jian Xin's question.
No matter how advanced the fairy sister is, she can save thousands of ghosts with one sword, and has the ability to use emotions to enter the Tao that astonished Dao Hai, Feng Shouyun and others. She must have a bright future.
This kind of soft rice is naturally delicious.
After thinking for a long time, Li Yanmo had an answer, "They say that the fairy sister entered the Tao with love. I don't know why she protects me, but I have to live up to her feelings."
Jian Xin raised his fingers and gently twisted the white hair around his ears, rolling back and forth on a stone with his right foot.
"Besides, I am your master after all, and I am also a man. I have to take the lead. How can I live off others? Wait until I am strong enough!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yanmo felt that the saturated bottleneck was completely loosened, and the seventh vortex condensed in his dantian.
"Boss, look, I'm already at the seventh level of Qi training!"
Jian Xin was silent for a few seconds and then cautiously asked, "Congratulations, Master, but I don't have much talent in cultivation..."
"It's okay, it's okay, the master is there!"
Seeing Li Yanmo patting his chest to make a promise, Jian Xin narrowed his eyes like crescent moons.
The next morning, Qingshan Sect leader Liu Wuchang brought a large number of account books to find Shen Ziqing, who was working hard to find details and save spirit stones in the prefectural government.
Because the number of account books was too large, Shen Ziqing felt that it would be more appropriate to count them in front of Li Yanmo.
Liu Wuchang also agreed with Li Yanmo's opinion. He also wanted to show Li Yanmo his sincerity and reliability, so that Li Yanmo would not think that the elders of Qingshan Sect were of the same tune as Mei Chai Shao.
The two hit it off immediately and came to the wooden house where Li Yanmo lived, but unfortunately Li Yanmo had already gone out and only Jian Xin was in the house.
"Master, where did the master go?"
Shen Ziqing bowed respectfully to Jian Xin.
Liu Wuchang already knew from Mei Chai Shao that Jian Xin was the supreme holy body of the Great Wilderness period, the Cang Yao Sword Body. Even Shen Ziqing, a man of mediocre talent, managed to reach the third or fourth level of Qi training by eating spiritual fruits. However, Jian Xin, the eldest disciple, was only at the first level of Qi training.
If it were any other time, Liu Wuchang would definitely feel regretful.
But after seeing the strange phenomenon of Li Yanmo's spiritual field, Liu Wuchang began to respect everything related to Li Yanmo.
So when facing Jian Xin, Liu Wuchang did not put on airs at all and bowed respectfully.
"Master went to Luoyang Town to look for the barefoot doctor named Jiang. He will be back soon."
Jian Xin nodded coldly and turned to leave.
This made Liu Wuchang a little confused, so Shen Ziqing opened his mouth to explain, "The senior sister has no ill intentions, she just has a cold personality."
“It’s okay, I can see the reason, Mr. Shen, why don’t we look at the account book first.”
Liu Wuchang naturally recognized that Jian Xin was born with the disease of white spot, and coupled with his born disabled body, it was already good enough that Jian Xin just had a cold personality.
"Okay—"
Shen Ziqing and Liu Wuchang sat down on the spot and compared the old account books.
In Luoyang Town, after listening to Li Yanmo's description, Jiang Baili exhaled a long puff of smoke, glanced at Li Yanmo sideways, without saying a word, just looking at him, making Li Yanmo feel uncomfortable all over.
"Why, you don't think I'm lying to you, do you?"
"Yes, especially the part about the infatuated fairy falling in love with me. I think your head is caught in the door."
As he spoke, Lily Jiang was about to hit Li Yanmo’s head with his cigarette.
Li Yanmo leaned back to avoid it, and said unhappily, "I didn't say that. It was you who said you would help me out? How come you didn't even show up that night!"
“How are you sure I didn’t go?” Lily Jiang snorted coldly.
Li Yanmo was stunned, thinking that he had misunderstood Lily Jiang. When he was feeling guilty, Lily Jiang said leisurely, "But I really didn't go."
"Hello!"
"That's a demon in the pseudo-tribulation period, and I don't have that ability. When I was about to rescue your master and apprentice, that flower-crazy sword fairy made a move, but her move was too fast, and she mobilized the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so I didn't help you determine whether she has a good figure or not, whether she is beautiful or not," Lily Jiang closed her right eye, "but you made a big move this time, and you actually had a fusion period to help you move mountains and seas."
"I actually wanted to pay, but they refused to accept it," Li Yanmo sighed regretfully.
Please ask someone in the fusion stage to take action. It’s not too much to spend several million spirit stones, right?
But Mei Chai Shao went too far. He actually did things for free. His thinking was very problematic.
We have to find a way to get out.
"However, if you take over the Qingshan Sect, you will also be taking over the mess of the Qingshan Sect."
"Mess?" Li Yanmo frowned.
"The title of Qingshan Sect as the largest sect in Ganzhou does not only represent reputation, but also a lot of substantial benefits brought by the Dao Sect."
Lily Jiang knocked on the table with her cigarette gun and said leisurely.
"The Great Yu Dynasty is wary of the Dao Sect and is trying to break up the alliance of millions of sects. The Dao Sect will naturally be on high alert and prepare corresponding measures to make the millions of sects [unite]."
Jiang Baili emphasized the word "unity", and Li Yanmo could naturally hear that there was something wrong.
"The Dao Sect encourages the sects to merge with each other by setting up inspections and rewarding the largest sect. The status of Qingshan Sect as the largest sect in Ganzhou is very tempting to other sects in Ganzhou."
"This year's opening of the sect and the recruitment of disciples is the last chance for Qingshan Sect to preserve its assets and status."
