Chapter 35 - War Criminal 'Tourist' Arrested Again for Impersonation and Fraud Because His Surname Was the Acronym for Swearing
The next day, 10,000 immortals from the Ji Immortal Clan descended from the outer void and gathered in the east of Sea Watcher Fortress. Their representative was the 9th-stage immortal butler of the clan, Ji Laopan.
Ji Laopan was a 165cm tall middle-aged man with an average face and small eyes. He had no beard or mustache, and he kept his long hair combed and tidy, tucking in the scholar's headwear. His robes and headwear appeared as though they had been freshly ironed, and they had a pleasant smell of warm sunlight. However, as the wind blew and carried dusty dirt toward him, a layer of his aura became visible as it blocked the dirt from getting on his skin.
Ji Guoli rushed out to welcome the main clan's butler and welcomed the army into the city. However, the butler rejected formalities and inquired about the incident.
"Where are Xiao Han Ce and his goons?" Ji Laopan sternly asked.
"Oh, you don't have to worry about that person anymore. My future son-in-law has repelled the invaders."
"Your future son-in-law?" Ji Laopan was interested. "What's his name and origin? Is he someone from the immortal realm?"
"He said he came from the Fu Clan, and he has 10 immortal elders accompanying him. You see, he first came here for an unusual trade and..."
Ji Guoli reported everything about Fu Tong and Huli Jiubai. He also disclosed their trade deal and their wealth.
While listening to Ji Guoli's story, Ji Laopan remained expressionless. He nodded and warned the governor.
"He is indeed our benefactor. Though his origin is dubious, you should treat him with the utmost respect. Also, make sure you tie him to our clan with your daughter. Being FUTURE son-in-law is not equal to being PRESENT son-in-law. Other immortal family branches might steal him if you're not careful."
"O-Of course. I'll tell my daughter to rush things up."
"No, it's not your daughter's fault. It's your fault for not being assertive enough. Drug him and get him to bed with your daughter. It doesn't matter if he's not interested in your daughter or if he is married. Any good-natured young man who has done a deed with a woman will always grow fond of his partner. Remember, deed first, feeling matters later."
"Y-You're very wise."
Ji Laopan snorted and turned around, preparing to withdraw his troops and leaving the cleaning up matters to Ji Guoli. However, he recalled the unusual wealth of Fu Tong and inquired further.
"How many karma coins do they have again?"
"We didn't count. About a chest worth of coins, maybe?"
Ji Laopan silently nodded and turned around, facing Ji Guoli again. He ordered him.
"Arrange a meeting for me. I want to talk to this 'Fu Tong'."
"R-Right away, sir!" frёeωebɳovel.com

In the guest house's bedroom, Fu Tong had been sitting cross-legged all night. He had been up since 2 AM, and he was in the middle of reviewing the battle between him and the new heart demons.
Defeating them in his sea of consciousness was easy, as he had infinite imaginary Qi there. But in reality, he couldn't use even 1% of the techniques that he had learned from the library.
At 8 AM, Fu Tong spat a depleted spirit stone out of his mouth. That was the sixth stone he consumed after he had woken up. He rechecked his progress.

Real cultivation was not easy.
All immortal-grade cultivation methods and breathing methods emphasized four core foundations: Physique, Dantian, Meridians, and Sea of Consciousness.
Physique was the container of dantian and mind. Therefore, a cultivator with a stronger physique could gather and contain more Qi naturally.
The dantian's condition affected the purity of Qi. As dantian was responsible for reproducing, regenerating, refining, and storing Qi, a cultivator had to nurture it like a baby of their own.
Meridians were pathways through which Qi could flow and determined the speed and efficiency of Qi circulation. Strengthening this foundation required external medicines, correct Qi circulation techniques, and actual practice.
And lastly, the Sea of Consciousness was something that most cultivators overlooked. This part was the foundation of the mind, where memories were stored. To reinforce this foundation, a cultivator had to explore their mind and nourish it with external cultivation resources, such as spirit stones and pills.
So far, Fu Tong had made a few puddles of fluid in his sea of consciousness. Only when the entire mind realm was engulfed in water would his mind and soul be completed and become immune to all types of mind attacks. But for now, Fu Tong could only use the memory of his death experience in the sea of consciousness as a temporary protective wall.
Fu Tong looked at his status and sighed. As his dantian grew too fast, his sea of consciousness could not keep up with the growth. It would take a while before he could raise a level.
Thinking of what he lacked, he fetched another spirit stone and prepared to continue cultivating.
KNOCK KNOCK
Someone knocked on the door and called him.
"Young Master Fu. The city lord wishes to see you at the manor."
Fu Tong clicked his tongue and put the spirit stone back in his storage ring. "Fine. I'll be there in a minute."

The manor hall was where Ji Guoli had held a banquet the other day. As the tables had been removed, it reverted to a lobby room where guests could gather and pay respect to the city lord.
However, Ji Guoli evicted his usual seat and gave it to Ji Laopan. As for him, he stood behind the immortal butler.
Fu Tong entered the hall and found a new face in the house owner's seat. Upon looking at the butler, he recognized the man's uniquely average appearance and figured out who he was. Showing respect, he cupped his fist and saluted.
"Junior Fu Tong greets Butler of Immortal Ji Manor."
Ji Laopan raised an eyebrow. "I don't remember being that famous."
Fu Tong grinned and probed the immortal. "Everybody immortal must know your name and role in the Ji Manor. Otherwise, they would be walking on a thin rope every time they set foot in your territory."
Being praised, Ji Laopan nodded in satisfaction, but his eyes gleamed in suspicion. He also tested Fu Tong.
"I've never heard of any immortal family with the surname Fu. What is your real origin and your real name?"
