Cultivation: Being Immortal

Zhongzhou, the Holy Heavenly Sect

Yang Xi looked at the recently renovated main hall of the sect and felt very satisfied. A grand sect should have a grand presence, and the current main hall met his expectations for his sect’s status.

"It’s extravagant, truly too extravagant."

Yang Xi shook his head again. The hall was renovated, but it cost a lot of money, which made Yang Xi, who had been poor since childhood, feel extravagant. He wouldn’t dare to waste like this in the future.

"Dad"

A voice came from behind, Yang Xi turned around and saw his son Yang Xiong standing there.

"Still couldn’t find it?"

"Cough cough, no"

"You’re really useless. I gave you so much money and so many people, but you can’t even find a person."

"Dad, it’s not my fault. Our Holy Heavenly Sect has a poor foundation. We don’t have many people in Zhongzhou, we lack information…"

Yang Xiong quickly explained. Other major sects have been operating for many years, and their businesses are spread across the major cities of Zhongzhou. Their businesses are their sources of information. But it’s different for the Holy Heavenly Sect. They only rose to prominence over a hundred years ago, their businesses haven’t expanded much, and they don’t have many people at all.

"You can make excuses, but see how your younger martial sister will deal with you later."

"No way, I treat my junior sister like my own daughter."

"*sound effect*"

After Yang Xiong finished speaking, Yang Xi hit him with a hammer while scolding him, saying, "You treat Yang Luo like your own daughter, so what am I? I am her godfather, you know? Do you want to be my brother?"

Yang Xiong got hit in the head and quickly begged for mercy. In the midst of their play fighting, Yang Luo came back from outside.

"Dad, senior brother, what are you doing? Acting out a deep father-son relationship?"

"Oh, Yang Luo is back."

Yang Xi saw Yang Luo and had a smile on his face. He threw his son aside and immediately went to Yang Luo’s side.

"Senior brother, did Li Changsheng find it?"

"Junior sister, that, that…"

"Not found?"

"Yes, senior brother is incompetent, that …"

"I won’t punish you, it was expected."

"Ah, senior sister still wanted me to find."

"Isn’t it just a matter of luck? Li Changsheng’s lifespan is so long, surely he can hide if he wants to. It was my mistake for not planning ahead in Tianxian City." ʀÂℕȎBΕŠ

Yang Luo said, she also didn’t expect to encounter this unexpected surprise in Tianxian City, so she regrets not making preparations in Tianxian City. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have let Li Changsheng escape. She would have captured him and drained his lifespan long ago.

"Junior sister, we will definitely meet Li Changsheng again in the future, and when that happens, I will personally capture him."

"No rush, as long as Li Changsheng is still in the cultivation world, he can’t escape from my grasp. It’s just a matter of time. The next step is to defeat the Spiritual Moon Sect and let the Holy Heavenly Sect completely occupy the northeast region of the Central Continent."

Yang Luo said, she has the confidence that as long as Li Changsheng is still in the cultivation world, she can find him and capture him. She is determined to dig out his secrets.

When Yang Xi and his son heard Yang Luo’s words, they became immediately excited. They had been waiting for this day for a long time, as they had a grudge against the Spiritual Moon Sect.

The Holy Heavenly Sect and the Spiritual Moon Sect used to have a very close relationship. They were like siblings, until the Spiritual Moon Sect’s leader, Xu Mingyue, became more powerful. After that, everything changed. The former siblings became their masters, and the Holy Heavenly Sect became their followers.

Being a follower was very difficult. Even though the main sect would protect the followers, they had to provide for the main sect and serve them as servants or cannon fodder. For the past thousand years, the Holy Heavenly Sect had been mistreated. Just a few hundred years ago, when the Shenmu Sect and the Spiritual Moon Sect had a conflict, the Holy Heavenly Sect was ordered to defend the Shenmu Sect, resulting in the death of one of Yang Xi’s brothers, several of his sons, and dozens of his nephews. Afterwards, the Spiritual Moon Sect only provided a small amount of compensation.

"Yang Luo, can you really defeat the Spiritual Moon Sect?"

"Dad, don’t you believe in me?"

"No, it’s not that. Well, how should I put it… The Spiritual Moon Sect is overall stronger than us."

"They may seem strong on the outside, but I have already found out their secret. The entire Spiritual Moon Sect relies on just a group of people. The other disciples are all weak."

Yang Luo said. The Spiritual Moon Sect is mainly a sect led by women. And whether they are ordinary people or cultivators, women are generally not as strong as men.

Especially when facing danger, many men get injured in battles, but they become even braver and have a higher tolerance for pain compared to women. They can also be more cruel and merciless towards their enemies.

And the women are polarized, some outstanding women are even better than men, but the inferior ones are much worse, their minds are full of romantic thoughts, and they consider emotions more important than anything else.

The current situation of Spiritual Moon Sect is that the whole sect is supported by a small group of people led by Xu Mingyue. They are indeed outstanding, but their numbers are too few. As long as these people are eliminated, Spiritual Moon Sect will collapse on its own.

"Yang Luo is right. Before Xu Mingyue broke through Tao Achieving, Spiritual Moon Sect was not as good as our Holy Heavenly Sect. Xu Mingyue is indeed powerful, but she is only one person. There aren’t many like her in Spiritual Moon Sect. Over the years, Xu Mingyue has been recruiting male disciples, but with little success. Those women are not capable, but they excel at struggling for power."

"Father, Xu Mingyue broke through Tao Achieving nearly two thousand years earlier than you, and you still can’t defeat her."

"Well, Yang Luo, what do you think…"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xi immediately looked at Yang Luo. He indeed couldn’t defeat Xu Mingyue, after all, Xu Mingyue had broken through Tao Achieving almost two thousand years earlier than him.

"It’s alright, Tao Achieving is nothing special."

"Junior sister, don’t underestimate the power of Tao Achieving. It’s not something you can imagine."

"You overestimate the power of Tao Achieving. It’s true that Tao Achieving is strong, but most Tao Achieving practitioners cannot truly harness its power. On Xu Mingyue’s side, I have already found a way to restrain her."

"Yang Luo, is this true?"

"Yes, Xu Mingyue should be practicing the Mingyue Divine Art, which combines both softness and rigidity. It is indeed formidable, but it also has significant flaws. If we disturb the harmony of Yin and Yang in the technique, we can reduce its power by thirty percent."

Yang Luo said, and when Yang Xi heard this, his eyes sparkled. If Xu Mingyue loses thirty percent of her strength, she won’t surpass him. If he is willing to pay a price, there will be a chance to defeat Xu Mingyue.

·······

The Jiang family of Zhongzhou is a second or third-rate power in the cultivation world. They only have one Void Achieving Ancestor as their guardian, and their lifespan is running short.

However, the situation of the Jiang family is delicate. They are currently the biggest subordinate force under the Spiritual Moon Sect, and their location is in between the Spiritual Moon Sect and the Holy Heavenly Sect.

Therefore, after the rise of the Holy Heavenly Sect, the Spiritual Moon Sect is desperately trying to win over the Jiang family, while also secretly guarding against them, fearing that the Jiang family might defect to the Holy Heavenly Sect.

Holy Heavenly Sect also didn’t want to fall behind. They put in a lot of effort to win over the Jiang family, hoping that the Jiang family would join the Holy Heavenly Sect. The Holy Heavenly Sect was willing to pay a great price for it.

The ancestor of the Jiang family played both sides. They maintained a friendly relationship with the Spiritual Moon Sect publicly, but secretly, they had a close connection with Holy Heavenly Sect and received numerous benefits. For the past hundred years, the Jiang family’s power had grown significantly.

One day, Jiang Xingyuan from the Jiang family came back home from outside. He looked at the two yards on either side and had a difficult choice to make. Both of his wives lived in these yards, and it was a big problem to decide whom he would favor.

Three’s a crowd, so forget about it. Because these two wives, one is from the Spiritual Moon Sect and the other is from the Holy Heavenly Sect. They are like water and fire, making him miss the joy of being together with both of them.

"Uncle, are you feeling troubled?"

A man beside Jiang Xingyuan said.

"Yes, I don’t have the same level as the ancestors. Keeping a balanced relationship is not an easy task."

Jiang Xingyuan said that the Void Achieving Ancestor of the Jiang family was a contemporary of Xu Mingyue. He saw that both Xu Mingyue and Yang Xi had already reached the Tao Achieving level, so he had been secluded in meditation, hoping to make a breakthrough. Now, all the power of the family is in Jiang Xingyuan’s hands.

In order to win over Jiang Xingyuan, both the Spiritual Moon Sect and the Holy Heavenly Sect have invested heavily in him. Fifty years ago, Jiang Xingyuan’s original wife passed away, and both sects sent female disciples to marry him. Moreover, they were both daughters of the two sects.

"Uncle, you’re joking. Now both sects are seeking the favor of my Jiang family. What does uncle fear from a mere woman?"

"Well, things are not that simple."

"It’s the uncle’s difference, and the life and death of both families cannot be decided by a few women. I am now the head of the Jiang family, I won’t favor just any woman, how can we prosper as the Jiang family?"

"You’re right."

Hearing his nephew’s words, Jiang Xingyuan nodded. Both families were seeking his help, so he couldn’t just do as he pleased. That would be so lucky.

Could it be that just because he neglected a wife or concubine, the sect behind her would dare to start a war?

"Uncle should follow his heart. If he likes that aunt, he should favor her. Does the prestigious Soul Changing sect need someone else to dictate affairs of wives and concubines?"

"Haha, you’re right. You go back first. I’m tired and need to rest."

Jiang Xingyuan burst into laughter. Even though the two families were overbearing, they couldn’t casually interfere with his happiness in the inner chambers.

After his nephew left, Jiang Xingyuan quickly arrived at the small courtyard on the right. The wives and concubines who lived here were from the Spiritual Moon Sect, not sent by the Holy Heavenly Sect. It’s not that the disciples from Holy Heavenly Sect were not beautiful enough, but in terms of charm, the Spiritual Moon Sect disciples excelled. They were more open-minded, and he preferred wives and concubines from the Spiritual Moon Sect.

"Miss, Jiang Xingyuan went over to that person’s side."

Inside the small courtyard on the left, a servant spoke to the woman.

"As expected, it’s better that he doesn’t come, so I don’t have to feel disgusted again."

"Miss, but it’s a mission from the sect…"

"Just execute the second mission. When Jiang Xingyuan leaves home again, eliminate all the disciples from the Spiritual Moon Sect."

The woman said that they were married to Jiang Xingyuan for a mission. They hoped to win over the Jiang family by whispering in his ear. She didn’t have any good feelings towards Jiang Xingyuan.

Now that Jiang Xingyuan has shown a preference for the disciples of the Spiritual Moon Sect, she can only resort to a ruthless plan. She will find an opportunity to kill all the disciples from the Spiritual Moon Sect who married into the Jiang family and see how the Jiang family will respond.
