Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health-Chapter 189 - 117: In My Name, Do My Deeds

Wangxian Pavilion... Daoist School, Zhu Zixuan... Peach Blossom Spring!

Fan Wubing's heart skipped a beat, "Did he... say anything?"

"I was accompanying him at the time. He stood beside the Little Moonfall on Enlightenment Peak, under the Parasol Tree, and looked for a long time. Then... his expression was rather odd, but in the end, he smiled quite happily. He just said, 'Eternal Immortal Sect has accepted a good disciple.' I think, he was talking about you."

"I guess... it should be."

"That Parasol Tree, did you bring it out from the Peach Blossom Spring?"

"Yes." Fan Wubing felt a bit guilty.

Mei Jinqiu was both amused and helpless, "Wubing, you probably don't know how much impact your actions have had on the Daoist School. Previously, that Mr. He of mine said that the Parasol Tree was the root system of the Peach Blossom Spring, equivalent to its support point. When you dug it up, the Peach Blossom Spring collapsed. The news reached the White Jade Capital, and they hastily convened a meeting. By the next day, they informed the Twelve Cities' Five Towers and added a new rule to each of their blessed lands."

"What... what rule?"

"What else could it be? To directly expose the root system of each blessed land, and explicitly inform everyone not to take it away."

Fan Wubing was sweating profusely, "So, I caused trouble?"

"Hahaha... you didn't do anything wrong, it's the Daoist School's own problem. Mr. He was worried you'd overthink it, so he personally instructed me to inform you of it."

"Then it's fine." Fan Wubing sighed in relief, "But, why is Mr. He so concerned?"

"Because, you also indirectly made the Confucianists sweat."

"Huh?" Fan Wubing's mood was lifted again.

"Didn't you suppress the Lake God of Zhaoxing Lake in Weiri City before?"

"Yes." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Right, that's the case. Mr. He inferred from small hints that there might be a problem with the Divine Dao, which the Confucianists have been managing for a long time, so he reported it to Wenxin Heaven. Wenxin Heaven then hurriedly instructed all academies with the ability to confer godhood to check the golden statues they set up."

Fan Wubing chuckled dryly, "This doesn't have much to do with me, does it?"

"Indeed. The problem with the Divine Dao objectively exists. Even without you, it would eventually be exposed, just a bit earlier."

"What's wrong with the Divine Dao?"

"That, I don't know. Mr. He didn't say, but from the looks of it, the problem might be quite significant. So, you indirectly helped."

"I see." Fan Wubing said, "Speaking of which, it always seems like the Eternal Immortal Sect is filled with important figures."

"Yes indeed." Mei Jinqiu's face was glowing, "This is a great opportunity for the Eternal Immortal Sect! Such occurrences are rare. Wubing, you've really turned the tide for the Eternal Immortal Sect with your own strength."

"The Sect Leader exaggerates. The Eternal Immortal Sect has its heritage, plus the Sect Leader's diligent management, which is why it could seize such opportunities." Fan Wubing humbly complimented both the sect and Mei Jinqiu.

"Haha, you kid... In two days, the senior from Wangxian Pavilion will start lecturing on the Dao. Lectures from an Integration Realm Great Power are very rare. You should prepare well to gain something."

"Where will the lecture be held?"

Mei Jinqiu, full of excitement, said, "Enlightenment Peak!"

Fan Wubing was stunned, "Enlightenment Peak? Won't other sects have objections?"

Because hosting a Dao lecture is different from casually talking to others. It requires formal preparations. After it ends, the place where the lecture was held becomes a Dao Altar. Cultivating in a Dao Altar of an Integration Realm Great Power won't guarantee rapid progress, but it will certainly offer substantial benefits, especially in terms of enlightenment.

Just like the Valley of the Water Spirit in Canglang Country.

A Dao Altar left by an Integration Realm Great Power might even surpass the effects of the Valley of the Water Spirit!

Mei Jinqiu said, "It was personally chosen by the senior from Wangxian Pavilion. Who from other sects would dare to have an opinion?"

"But, why choose Enlightenment Peak?"

"Perhaps, it's because of the Parasol Tree you brought back. It originally belonged to the Daoist School. I imagine, choosing Enlightenment Peak for the lecture might also be to select a Daoist representative in the Little South Continent."

"A representative?"

Mei Jinqiu nodded, "Yes. Setting the Dao Altar on Enlightenment Peak is a kind of test. A test to see if the Eternal Immortal Sect is qualified to be the Daoist School's representative in the Little South Continent. Out of the Nineteen Continents of the World, only the Little South Continent and Demon Continent lack a Daoist facade. The Demon Continent is the main active area of many Demon Race, naturally unwilling to allow other forces to interfere, leaving only the Little South Continent."

"Then why not establish a facade themselves, why choose a local force?"

Mei Jinqiu shook his head, "The Little South Continent is still too small, not yet to the extent of needing a personal facade. So, supporting a local force as a representative is the best approach. But, whether the Eternal Immortal Sect can gain the Daoist School's recognition is still uncertain."

"Do we need to prepare anything?"

Mei Jinqiu laughed, "Relax, child. No need to prepare anything special. The Daoist School always emphasizes the concept of 'fate.' Intentional preparations might sometimes backfire. We just need to welcome it in our most natural state."

"I see." Fan Wubing breathed a sigh of relief, smiling, "It seems like something big is about to happen in the world."

Mei Jinqiu furrowed his brows.

As the Sect Leader, he actually understood such matters better. However, limited by his capability and vision, he couldn't perceive much more.

Nevertheless, he was certain that the Eternal Immortal Sect must ride this undercurrent to step out from the Little South Continent!

After saying goodbye to the Sect Leader and Fu Manman, Fan Wubing returned to Enlightenment Peak.

Enlightenment Peak truly changed daily. In just a month since he last saw it, it was almost unrecognizable. The heavy snow couldn't cover its vibrant life force and soaring momentum.

He greeted Zhang Jingwei and inquired about the current situation of Enlightenment Peak.

The first batch of ten disciples had made considerable progress in their cultivation and could now independently take on assignments for training. Everywhere on the mountain, perhaps influenced by luck, ordinary plants were gradually exhibiting spiritual transformations, massively evolving into spirit plants, although Gu Lan frequently tended to Enlightenment Peak.

But it wasn't good to continuously receive others' favors, so Zhang Jingwei considered whether to formally invite disciples from Nourishing Spirit Peak to manage.

Fan Wubing agreed, "But what about the costs?"

Zhang Jingwei smiled, "Don't worry about that. After the annual examination, the sect decided to heavily invest in Enlightenment Peak, with significant resource allocation. I just wanted to get your opinion - if you don't have any objections, I'll start arranging it."

"I see, that's good, that's good." Fan Wubing said, "Elder, in terms of managing the Immortal Peak, I'm not as good as you. So if you have any ideas, go ahead and implement them."

Fan Wubing believed that Zhang Jingwei's determination to make Enlightenment Peak better wasn't any less than his own.

"Well... alright then."

Zhang Jingwei then went to work diligently.

After watching him leave, Fan Wubing suddenly heard a shout coming from a distance, "Senior Brother—"

Immediately after, he was knocked to the ground.

Fan Wubing covered Luo Qingyao's face with one hand, pushed her away, "I say, you girl, can't you be a bit more reserved?"

Luo Qingyao pouted her lips, with a smug expression saying "Only I am beautiful," and said proudly, "If I were reserved, would I still be me?"

"So you're feeling proud, huh."

"Senior Brother~" Luo Qingyao said pitifully, "While you were away, I had such a hard time! That woman kept urging me to cultivate all the time, not even giving me time to rest!"

"That woman?"

Fan Wubing realized she was talking about her sister. He twitched his lips; has her sister already become "that woman" in her heart?

"Luo Qingyao! You're slacking off again!" In the distance, Luo Ling Immortal's scolding voice came.

Soon after, a woman with white clothes like snow and hair like a waterfall descended elegantly. When she saw Fan Wubing, she paused for a moment and then quickly put away her fierce demeanor, becoming aloof and graceful, "You're back."

Fan Wubing nodded politely and asked with a smile, "Sister Luo, how is your stay at Enlightenment Peak?"

"Hmm. It's a good place for cultivation, but some people don't seem to take it seriously."

Luo Qingyao discontentedly said, "Without Senior Brother here, I'm just not motivated."

Luo Ling Immortal shook her head in disappointment, "Luo Qingyao, I fear you'll waste your talents entirely!"

"No way! Now that Senior Brother is back, I'm immediately motivated!"

"Forget it... I don't care about you anymore." Luo Ling Immortal didn't mind her younger sister being close to Fan Wubing; after all, fourteen or fifteen-year-olds naturally go through this phase, and they'll change with age.

Luo Ling Immortal looked at Fan Wubing and said seriously, "There's something about your senior sister Fu Ming that I have to tell you."

Fan Wubing immediately felt a tremor in his heart. Even the lively Luo Qingyao quieted down.

"What is it?"
