Chapter 667: How Did You Two Attract Two Half-Immortals?

"It's finally over." Lu Yang let out a long breath, his heart still pounding from the terrifying battle between the Half-Immortals.

"Since when did you become so timid?" Immortal Fairy looked at Lu Yang with confusion. "I don't recall you being this scared even when I fought against that girl Yun." That was a true battle of Immortals. Compared to their fight, what were those two Half-Immortals? Just a village brawl.

Lu Yang was speechless. Logically, she was right, but something about it felt off.

"Good thing you invited Senior Sister," Meng Jingzhou said, also shaken by the battle. Without her, this trip might have ended badly.

"Amitabha, no wonder this monk couldn't defeat Senior Sister Yun." Shi Chan finally understood why his master had told him not to provoke Yun Zhi. Lu Yang had previously introduced Heavenly Court Sect to Shi Chan, so Shi Chan already knew that the sect leader was Senior Sister.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou turned their heads in astonishment, looking at Shi Chan with disbelief. "You fought Senior Sister?"

Shi Chan, always forthright, calmly replied, "When this monk went to Dao Seeking Sect to study, I once challenged Senior Sister Yun. Unfortunately, I did not win."

It was hard to imagine Shi Chan doing something so audacious. The two cupped their hands in admiration; truly a venerable monk with extraordinary courage.

"Young sirs, is it over now?" Miss Fu Ling asked cautiously. During the battle, they hadn't dared to breathe.

Lu Yang nodded. "Chunjiang City is safe now." With Senior Sister present, no demon or monster could pose a threat.

"Will you continue to cultivate your state of mind here?" Lu Yang asked Shi Chan.

Shi Chan gently shook his head. The matter was resolved, but given the current circumstances, the brothel would not reopen soon, nor would it be in the mood to. Therefore, he needed to find another place to temper his mind.

"Then I wish you success," Lu Yang said with a chuckle, cupping his hands. Afterward, he and Old Meng still had to meet Senior Sister and could not travel with Shi Chan.

"This monk thanks both Senior Brothers for their kindness."

The second floor of the inn was now an open-air space, with wooden debris scattered everywhere, a complete mess.

Lu Yang picked up a piece of wood, likely part of the roof. Using his finger as a sword, he quickly carved the wood into the shape of a wooden sword and engraved "Lu Yang" on the hilt. He carved two wooden swords, one for each of the Fu Ling sisters.

"This wooden sword contains a trace of my sword qi. It can be used for self-defense, and evil spirits will not dare to approach. If you encounter danger, releasing its power is equivalent to a full-force attack from a Peak Nascent Soul cultivator. In the future, if you face any difficulties, you can bring this wooden sword to Dao Seeking Sect and find me."

According to Immortal Fairy, the sisters would not sense anything if she used their connection to perform the Twin River finding spell. It was best not to let the sisters know about the Twin River matter, as their knowledge could easily bring them misfortune.

The sisters carefully put away the wooden swords and thanked Lu Yang. These were priceless talismans that could save their lives in critical moments.

Seeing Lu Yang seriously giving gifts, Meng Jingzhou also wanted to give something. However, he thought for a moment and realized that apart from his 'virility blood' or spirit stones, he had nothing suitable to give. After some thought, he made a promise: "Ladies, if you ever need spirit stones in the future, please don't hesitate to borrow from our Meng family."

The three bade farewell to the sisters and then saw the distraught innkeeper. What was once a perfectly good inn now only had its first floor habitable. Even if the court provided relief funds and rebuilt the inn, it would take an enormous amount of time. Young Master Meng, being kind-hearted, gave the innkeeper some spirit stones as compensation for lost business.

The three then went to bid farewell to City Lord Liu. With such an incident in Chunjiang City, the casual dinner promised for the evening was out of the question. City Lord Liu was now as busy as a spinning top, dealing with maintaining order and disaster relief internally, and drafting official reports for higher authorities externally.

When the trio arrived, they happened to witness Venerable Yi Qi showcasing his might, fiercely battling the Night Pavilion's Vice Leader, a Body Fusion stage cultivator. Venerable Yi Qi fought with great exhilaration, while the Vice Leader was left bruised and battered.

The three said their goodbyes outside the city and parted ways. Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou followed Senior Sister's message and headed to a small hill thirty li east of the city.

When Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou arrived at the small hill, they found Senior Sister conducting a brief interrogation to ascertain the identities of the two ancient Supremes. Senior Sister had set up a formation around the hill, which would subtly deter outsiders from approaching.

"So, one of you is the Nightmare Supreme from the late Great Qian Dynasty, and the other is the Void Supreme from the late Great Yu Dynasty?"

"Senior, what are you saying? Just call me Little Meng."

"Just call me Little Xu."

The two Supremes were as compliant as could be. When one is under another's roof, one must bow one's head. Both ancient Supremes were heroes forged by their respective eras, and they knew when to yield without stubbornness. From a temporal perspective, Sect Leader Yun belonged to the ancient era, earlier than theirs. In terms of cultivation, she was an Immortal, far surpassing their own. Addressing her as "Senior" was entirely appropriate.

"Senior Sister, we've finished handling our affairs here."

Senior Sister brought out the Emperor's Chair, a special product Lu Yang had brought from the Demon City. She sat on it and calmly inquired about the course of events.

"Tell me what happened. I recall, Junior Brother Meng, before you left, you inquired about the black market from Junior Brother Dai, and you promised to 'absolutely not cause any trouble for the next six months.'" Senior Sister had overheard this from Dai Bufan by chance. She never imagined that within half a month, not even half a year, two ancient Half-Immortals would be provoked into a battle.

Meng Jingzhou repeatedly cried injustice, wanting to clarify the situation: "Senior Sister, please understand, both Old Lu and I are victims. I, with the idea of independent entrepreneurship, stopped after earning my first pot of gold from the black market. After leaving the black market, I coincidentally met Shi Chan, who was begging for alms. Seeing Shi Chan's destitute and difficult life, and out of concern for a fellow disciple, we decided to accompany him in tempering his mind in the mundane world."

"In Chunjiang City, the three of us acted righteously. Not only did we repeatedly rescue a pair of sisters, but we also provided the authorities with a clue about an assassin organization. We even subdued demons and eliminated evil, peacefully resolving disputes among four Nascent Soul stage demonic entities, allowing them to coexist peacefully in one room. When the City Lord learned of our deeds, he even proactively invited us for dinner."

Meng Jingzhou pointed firmly at the two Supremes kneeling on the ground and exclaimed, "It's clearly these two who caused trouble and insisted on fighting in Chunjiang City! We are the victims! These two fought recklessly, ripping the roof off the inn where we were staying, completely disregarding the innkeeper's feelings. I even paid for the innkeeper's losses on their behalf!"

Lu Yang chimed in, supporting him: "Yes, these two not only engaged in a public brawl, but they also abducted criminals, openly harbored a criminal organization, and attempted to steal ancient treasures. They are truly heinous, their crimes too numerous to count!"
