I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation-Chapter 44

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Just as Chen Huan had expected, Pei Ling returned to Spiraling Mountain City peacefully.

Under the rule of the Deep Sea Sect, the Holy Sect had always been supreme.

‘When the disciples of the sect were in distress, those who did not save them would have their whole clan implicated!

Moreover, the person Pei Ling sought help from was the City Lord Duanmu, whom the Shen Family Trading Company looked up to. So after confirming that the nameplate was correct, they did not dare to slight him.

They did not bother with their goods and threw them onto the side of the road in order to make room in the best horse carriage for Pei Ling and his Life-Extinguishing Blade. They even checked the place where he was unconscious several times. After confirming that there was nothing left behind, they

abandoned the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. They deployed the young and strong—one man to two horses—to escort the horse carriage to Spiraling Mountain City as quickly as possible!

The group sped all the way and just as they arrived at the city gate, a cavalier spurred his horse forward and shouted from afar, “The Shen Family Trading Company met the unconscious disciple of the Deep Sea Sect on the way. He said that he has something urgent to report to City Lord Duanmu!”

Upon hearing this, the expression of the guard instantly changed. He hurriedly reported the matter to the commander who naturally took it seriously as well and reported it to the higher-ups. Not long after the carriage carrying Pei Ling entered the city, City Lord Duanmu appeared in front of the

carriage!

His expression was grave. He could not be bothered with the people kneeling around him. He stepped forward and lifted the curtain of the carriage. After taking a few looks at Pei Ling’s condition, he heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s just that his spiritual power is exhausted. He doesn’t have any other injuries.

Give him an Essence Enhancing Pill.”

The steward went personally to get a medicinal pill. Soon he returned and fed it to Pei Ling. City Lord Duanmu used his spirit energy to help Pei Ling absorb the medicinal effects. After a while, he slowly regained consciousness.

“Little Friend Pei.” City Lord Duanmu immediately asked, “I wonder what happened to you that you need to report to me immediately? And what about Little Friend Chen and the rest?”

Pei Ling’s heart raced. He had said that only because there was nothing like having a man on the spot to help smooth the way. In the wilderness, he could not depend on the Deep Sea Sect’s name alone to suppress that trading company, so he had dropped City Lord Duanmu’s name.

Now it seemed that although this move was effective, he had to give City Lord Duanmu an explanation or it might be difficult to resolve the matter!

They were both at the Foundation Establishment stage. Although this City Lord said that he could not do anything to the Man-Faced Spider, to Pei Ling, he could be more dangerous than the spider.

Fortunately, he thought quickly on his feet and said, “City Lord, I was going to eliminate the flower demon with Senior Sister Chen, but Senior Brother Chen said that he wanted to take us to the deep mountains to broaden our horizons… Who knew

Pei Ling deliberately looked left and right, indicating that he did not know if it was appropriate to continue.

As City Lord Duanmu waved his hand to set up a small soundproof area, Pei Ling quickly softened his tone. When the City Lord signaled him to continue, he faked a sorrowful expression and said anxiously, “Who knew! Senior Brother Chen and the rest got Senior Sister Xiao to set up an extremely

complicated array. They planned to refine that Man-Faced Spider into the Soul Summoning Banner.”

“What?” City Lord Duanmu was stunned before he burst out laughing. He looked at Pei Ling a little strangely. “Have your Senior Brother Chen and the rest gone crazy? I don’t even dare to provoke the Man-Faced Spider, so why would they throw their lives away?”

“City Lord, I don’t know why either!” Pei Ling evaded his questio

have known that it was a Foundation Establishment demon beast. In short, Senior Brother Chen’s plan failed, and we fled separately. Perhaps my strength was low, so the Man-Faced Spider didn’t fancy me and went to chase the other senior brothers and sisters

“On the second day after I entered the sect, Senior Brother Chen took me out on a mission. I didn’t know anything. If not for the City Lord’s kindness and heads-up, I wouldn’t have known that it was a Man-Faced Spider, and I wouldn’t

He looked terrified. “Looking in the direction, the Man-Faced Spider was heading for Spiraling Mountain City. That evil creature was ferocious and Senior Sister Chen had been harmed! If we let it enter the city, the consequences will be unthinkable, City Lord!”

City Lord Duanmu narrowed his eyes and stared at him for a moment. Pei Ling felt like he was a mortal being targeted by a venomous snake that was ready to strike. The immense pressure made him not dare to breathe loudly. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

He had cold sweat on his back as he wondered if he had been exposed.

However, the pressure from City Lord Duanmu suddenly disappeared as he slowly said, “Spiraling Mountain City… Don’t worry. In the cities under the governance of the Holy Sect, as long as the population reaches a certain number, there will be a Dark Demon Subduing Array set up. The array will activate

automatically when the demon beasts at the Foundation Establishment stage and above are within 50 kilometers and kill them, unless they are wearing an Imperial Beast Ring.”

“Is, is that so?” Pei Ling’s hair stood on end. He gulped and forced a smile. “I joined the sect belatedly. I don’t know either… Did I disturb the City Lord?”

City Lord Duanmu smiled and said amiably, “Although Spiraling Mountain City is free of worries, Little Friend Chen and the rest are disciples of the Holy Sect after all. It’s one thing if I don’t know what happened, but since I know now, how can I leave you in the lurch? But I wonder where they refined the

Soul Summoning Banner?”

Pei Ling did not expect things to develop like this. Although it was a good thing that the City Lord did not pursue the matter, he actually wanted to save people!

There’s actually such a kind elder in this Underworld Sect. What kind of f*cking luck is this?!

Could it be that the hidden side effect of the retarded system is to reduce luck?

He wanted to spout nonsense about a completely different place so that the City Lord would make a wasted trip and Chen Huan and the rest would die in the forest, but the City Lord asked very carefully and even hinted that he was very familiar with the forest in Spiraling Mountain City.

In exasperation, Pei Ling had to tell the truth. He even acceded to the City Lord’s request to map out a rough location in the sand.

“Little Friend Pei, you’ve worked hard.” The City Lord questioned him twice. After confirming that he said the same thing and that he did not miss anything, he smiled and instructed the steward, “I’m going out of the city to save some people. Send Little Friend Pei back to his residence to rest and serve

him well.”

Without waiting for the steward to reply, he flicked his sleeve and transformed into a cool breeze that drifted through the city wall in the blink of an eye.

Pei Ling looked at the steward, who was gesturing “please come this way’. He composed himself, put on a bold face, and moved forward.

At this moment, Chen Huan still did not know that his savior was about to arrive. His hair was disheveled and he was covered in injuries. His shoulders, arms, back, thighs… All of them were corroded by the venom, leaving behind large and small wounds and bloodstains.

A big chunk of his left shoulder had been cut off!

This was to prevent the Soul Summoning Banner from being damaged. He would rather use his body to block the inevitable.

“Beast… Pei Ling, that bastard!!! Man-Faced Spider, that bastard!!!” There was nothing right with Chen Huan’s body at this moment. His limbs and bones were aching from the repeated pressure as his spiritual power was almost exhausted.

Compared to the pain in his body, he could not endure the heartache.

Although Chen Huan had done his best to protect it, under the hysterical attacks of the Man-Faced Spider, two cracks had appeared on the Soul Summoning Banner, and five of the Accomplice Ghosts had disappeared.

This included the newly refined Huang Xian.

At the thought of the price of repairing it, Chen Huan’s heart ached immensely, and he could not help cursing.

At this moment, another spiderweb sprayed from behind him—Chen Huan’s eyes widened in anger. “Beast! If I escape this time and reach the Foundation Establishment realm in the future, I’ll definitely slaughter all your heirs!!”

He cursed as he dodged to the side. At the same time, he activated the Soul Summoning Banner, and braced himself for the second spider web that followed closely behind. However, the Soul Summoning Banner floated above his head for a moment and did not move.

Chen Huan was stunned. He instinctively turned around and saw that although the Man-Faced Spider was still furious, its cold eyes revealed a hint of exhaustion.

Is this bastard tired? Chen Huan immediately understood. After all, not to mention the fact that this Man-Faced Spider had lost its vital energy after laying its eggs, even a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator would not have been able to chase him all the way from its nest to this place.

Even if it could continue to pursue him, the frequency at which it spat spider webs and venom was clearly going to drop.

At the thought of this, Chen Huan could not help but feel energized. Without hesitation, he used the Blood Ignition Technique and shot towards the edge of the forest. Bastard, don’t f*cking give up if you have the ability! After I leave the forest, I’ll travel a short distance and will soon be within 50

kilometers of Spiraling Mountain City.

At that time, when the Dark Demon Subduing Array is activated, I might be able to take advantage of it!
