Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 187: The Thorough Creed Leader

Inside the mental space, two peerless women sat side by side, each displaying a unique charm that was a feast for the eyes. Yun Zhi held a scroll in her hand as she sat quietly with a scholarly aura, appearing aloof from the world, while the Everlasting Immortal Fairy lounged lazily with her limbs sprawled and yawned out of boredom, appearing isolated from the world.

“Little lass, do you still need to read the book page by page at our cultivation level? Can’t you just scan it with your spiritual consciousness and know everything instantly? The Everlasting Immortal yawned, not caring the slightest bit about her appearance.

Lu Yang kept shaking his head by the side. What a beautiful immortal fairy. It’s a pity that she talks.

Yun Zhi smiled as she shook her head. “Senior, you might not have known this, but the greatest joy in reading books is turning each and every page. You never know what surprise the next page holds. If you scan it with your spiritual consciousness, wouldn’t you miss out on this wonderful experience?”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy mused over what Yun Zhi said and found it a good idea. “So what book are you reading?”

“How to Be a Good Big Senior Sister.”

“That’s quite the interesting title.”

“Exactly. I wrote it.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy, “...”

Lu Yang casually asked, without any intention of fanning the flames. “Big Senior Sister, do you not mind that the Everlasting Immortal Fairy is calling you ‘little lass?’”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy glared at Lu Yang. Is this something the creed founder should be asking?

Yun Zhi nodded almost imperceptibly. “What Senior said isn’t wrong. Even if we disregard the fact that the era she lived in was three hundred thousand years in the past, judging just by her actual age, it’s not wrong for her to call me a little lass.”

Perhaps emboldened by her foolishness, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy stood her ground as she retorted, “Hey hey hey! I can’t pretend I didn’t hear that. I’m clearly only sixteen years old!”

Lu Yang joined the fray, “Immortal Fairy, are you referring to your intelligence or brain?

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy flew into a rage, clamoring about challenging Lu Yang to a duel. However, Lu Yang was not to be outdone and hid behind Yun Zhi.

“I dare you to come out!”

“I dare you to come out!”

Neither of them backed down.

While both of them made a racket, Yun Zhi quietly read her book by the side.

Halfway through their argument, Lu Yang suddenly remembered something. “Big Senior Sister, don’t you need to let your soul and consciousness drift outside to investigate the layout of this headquarters?”

Lu Yang and the other two were too low in cultivation to wander around, but it was different for Yun Zhi. She could let her soul and consciousness leave her body, and no one would notice.

In the real world, Lu Yang and the other two were cultivating diligently and did not venture anywhere.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy rolled her eyes. “You mean her? She has projected her soul outside a long time ago. What you see here is a clone of her soul that she left behind.”

If it weren’t just a soul clone, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy wouldn’t have dared talk to Yun Zhi like that.

Lu Yang remarked, “...Indeed, no one noticed.”

Including myself.

~~~

The Everlasting Creed didn’t lack stunning experts and outstanding talents, yet no one noticed a soul moving through the headquarters, silently observing something.

With Yun Zhi’s inexplicably deep cultivation, she could enter the headquarters of the Everlasting Creed as if it were a no-man’s land.

She discovered that the layout of the headquarters was very meticulously designed. There were altogether twenty-five exits. In the event of an emergency, the creed followers would escape from these exits, making it very difficult to capture them all.

However, Yun Zhi had already located all twenty-five exits and locked onto them with her soul. As long as she decided to take action, she could guarantee that no one would be able to leave the place, trapping them like turtles in a jar.

She also noted that the cave was somewhat desolate. It was probably a relic from the Great Yu Dynasty that the Everlasting Creed accidentally uncovered.

As Yun Zhi continued flying deeper into the headquarters, she noticed a secret chamber right at the end. There were a multitude of arrays around the secret chamber to prevent anyone from sneaking inside.

Except for Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi entered the secret chamber and saw the creed leader worshipping the Everlasting Immortal. A wisp of smoke slowly wafted from within the Everlasting Immortal’s statue and morphed into the figure of an old man.

“Hmm?” Yun Zhi frowned.

Neither the creed leader nor the Everlasting Immortal noticed Yun Zhi’s presence, as she had perfectly concealed her breathing.

“Immortal, there is something I don’t understand. Please show me the answer.”

“Ask, child.”

“The ancient texts mention that you are bloodthirsty and fond of killing. To please you, we have slaughtered countless lives.”

“Dead beings are one of the sources of this immortal’s power.”

The creed leader furrowed his brow. “We don’t mind killing to restore you to your peak, Immortal, but times have been tough recently. The righteous path has been cracking down on us more vigorously. Our members are all struggling.

“A few days ago, I even organized a question-and-answer event on criminal law and a lecture on the exclusionary rule of illegally obtained evidence. I was trying to improve our followers’ education level and grasp of criminal law so that they can leave behind less evidence when committing crimes. If they do get caught, they can still defend themselves with their knowledge of criminal law.”

The Everlasting Immortal scratched his chin. “Are you asking me to organize a criminal law lecture too?”

“No, I noticed that our members’ learning abilities are worrying and that they dislike studying criminal law. In order to motivate them, I changed the design of your statue to hold a law book and spread the word that you also studied criminal law avidly.”

The Everlasting Immortal replied, “...Is there anything else?”

“Yes, I wanted to ask if your strength strictly stems from killing people. Does killing other beings work? Truth be told, my family used to run a slaughterhouse. Although we don’t do that anymore, I’m still familiar with the process inside out. What do you think about transforming the Everlasting Creed into the ‘Everlasting Slaughterhouse?’ We could wash off our tarnished reputation and climb ashore. That way, our members will be safe.

“We also have three talents adept at barbecuing. We could have them open a barbeque chain store and link it up with the slaughterhouse, building an entire industry value chain—we are killing many birds with one stone!”

Seeing that the Everlasting Immortal wanted to say something, the creed leader continued, “Are you concerned about the tax issues? Don’t worry about that! I was wanted because of massive tax evasion, so I had no choice but to join the diabolic path instead. When it comes to taxes, I’m a professional!” The creed leader’s voice was full of confidence, his eyes shining bright.

The Everlasting Immortal said, “...If there’s nothing else, can I go back now?”

“There’s one more minor thing.” The creed leader respectfully took out a few sheets of paper.

“What is this?”

“Evacuation drill plan. After all, we have relocated our headquarters and are still unfamiliar with the escape passages. In a while, we plan to carry out a large-scale evacuation drill by simulating an attack from the righteous path. Would you like to participate, Immortal?”

The Everlasting Immortal fell silent for a long time, contemplating if he should step down and let the creed leader take over as the creed’s faith instead.

“That’s not necessary. I can appear anywhere through my statues. The righteous path won’t be able to catch me. Also, hurry up with the trials. The sooner I take over a body, the sooner I can cultivate and return to my peak.”

“Oh.”

~~~

“Hmm? She’s back,” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy suddenly said in the mental space, though Lu Yang couldn’t sense anything.

From the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s perspective, a golden light had flown in from the outside and merged with the Yun Zhi here.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy was an immortal after all and did have some skill to show for it.

Yun Zhi put down her literary work; her expression was now different. Her delicate eyebrows were slightly knitted, as if she had discovered something. She looked toward the Everlasting Immortal Fairy and said hesitantly, “Senior... you’ve become fake.”

“Huh?!”
