Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 269: You Dare Bully the Second-In-Command of My Everlasting Lineage?

“Intermediate Golden Core demon beast—the Lushu Horse.[3]

“You have so many demon beasts at your disposal, yet you’re still not satisfied and want me?” Lu Yang laughed, unmoved despite being surrounded by enemies. “Such greed won’t take you far on the path to immortal ascension.”

He had heard repeated warnings from the Everlasting Immortal Fairy that cultivators must not be rapacious. Greed might bring momentary pleasure, but it would not sustain one long on the path to immortality.

“I shall not trouble a dead man to worry about that.” The Herding Sky Grass did not take Lu Yang’s admonishments to heart.

As they spoke, the golden disc flew out and spun with flashes of lightning, carving a trench into the ground.

Clang! The Qingfeng Sword sliced through the air, blocking the golden disc. However, the golden disc split into two, bypassing the Qingfeng Sword and whizzing right toward Lu Yang’s face.

Lu Yang kept retreating, but the golden discs pursued him relentlessly. Regardless of whether he moved left or right, the discs would be hot on his trail, nearly scraping him several times. He used his Qingfeng Sword to deflect them, but they split into four, without even the slightest reduction in speed.

“Looks like every time it contacts the golden disc, it will multiply and can even track me.” Lu Yang soon analyzed the characteristics of the golden disc, finding it very cumbersome.

“Shrinking Earth!” He shrank into the earth. When the golden discs hit the ground, they could no longer move.

Just as Lu Yang wanted to catch his breath and search for an opportunity to escape, a beam of light pierced through the thick soil and shone on him. In an instant, it rendered him immobile and pulled him out of the ground.

Lu Yang looked up and saw that the culprit was the chipped bowl.

While he was rooted to the spot, numerous demon beasts seized this chance to pounce toward him, aiming to rip him to smithereens.

“Seems like it’s an immobilization-type magical treasure.”

With a thought, Lu Yang unleashed a burst of sword qi that swept through the surroundings and overturned the ground, temporarily impeding the demon beasts’ assault.

His sword qi shifted again. This time, it slashed upward, straight for the chipped bowl. The surge of sword qi evolved constantly, clashing with the chipped bowl in an impasse.

Suddenly, the sword qi expanded in an incandescent display, puncturing a hole in the bottom of the bowl.

The palms of the bowl’s owner glowed, unleashing several palm strikes with fleeting flashes of lightning, while Lu Yang countered with the Arhat Fist.

A crane’s cry rang out from above Lu Yang. The white crane swooped out, its beak like a sword piercing the heavens, intent on impaling Lu Yang.

“Qingfeng Sword, go!” While exchanging palm strikes with the bowl’s owner, Lu Yang used his consciousness to control the Qingfeng Sword, parrying the attack from above.

When Lu Yang extended his spiritual consciousness, he discovered countless humans and demon beasts poised to deliver a fatal blow to him. These attacks wouldn’t kill him, but they were sufficient to injure him severely.

As the battle grew more intense, Lu Yang felt a sense of enlightenment, as if a halo before him was veiled in thick fog. Just as he wanted to disperse the fog to take a closer look, the demon beasts launched their attacks.

The zheng leopard scuffed its paws against the ground and charged at Lu Yang with its horn.

Although Lu Yang managed to chop off the zheng leopard’s horn with the Qingfeng Sword, its horn had still pierced his waist, causing blood to flow profusely. He casually swallowed a pill to stop the bleeding.

The lushu horse descended from the sky, its four hooves like huge millstones, preparing to crush Lu Yang to death.

Lu Yang assumed a sky-propping stance, clashing head-on with the lushu horse. The demon beast was sent hurtling away with two strikes of the palm, but Lu Yang wasn’t much better off. His arms ached so much that it felt like they were falling apart.

Battered by the continuous onslaught of attacks, Lu Yang’s condition kept exacerbating. He didn’t even have the chance to consume another pill, and the fog between him and the halo grew thicker.

“You’re a mere Advanced Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet you could withstand so many ultimate moves from Golden Core cultivators. I really want to know what you taste like.” The Herding Sky Grass grew more and more satisfied with Lu Yang.

The stronger Lu Yang is, the stronger I will become after devouring him. It was hard for spirit plants to develop spirit sentience, but once they did, they would possess extraordinary potential.

“This is so infuriating! How dare this rotten weed bully the second-in-command of my Everlasting Lineage? Does it think I don’t have a temper?!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy was anxious and furious to see Lu Yang wounded.

“Lu Yang, give me a wooden clone. Use the Twin Lotus Flower seed; its effects are much better than the Bodhi tree seed!”

Lu Yang was stunned for a moment. Then, his eyes lit up. He nodded and shrank into the ground.

“Trying to shrink into the ground again? It’s useless!” The Herding Sky Grass thought Lu Yang was repeating his old trick of attempting to flee through the ground.

Lu Yang deftly produced the Twin Lotus Flower seed and activated the Tree-Planting Mantra.

A lotus flower broke through the soil. On its leaves stood two Lu Yangs—one was his original body, and the other was a clone formed from lotus root.

“This is it! This is the one!” The Herding Sky Grass exclaimed in excitement. This is the spell I’ve yearned for even in my dreams.

“Even I, an immortal, couldn’t learn this technique. Yet you rotten weed think you can?” The lotus root clone of Lu Yang sneered, mocking the Herding Sky Grass for its hubris.

Lotus root Lu Yang moved herself, feeling that her original appearance was still better. With a snap of her fingers, she seemed to be undergoing metamorphosis. The outer layer of the lotus petals dropped off one by one, revealing the true appearance of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy.

The little girl was no longer smiling. As she watched the dark mass of humans and demon beasts, her lips curled downward in displeasure. “A bunch of filthy things. Beating you would dirty my hands. Lu Yang, take out my tablecloth. It will have to do as a weapon.”

The tablecloth was sturdy, durable, and everlasting—truly the best weapon.

As the Everlasting Immortal Fairy spoke, she tied her long hair back in a knot, ensuring it wouldn’t get dirty during the fight later.

Lu Yang retrieved a red silk from his identity jade tablet and handed it to her. Holding the red silk, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s eyes flickered with a hint of nostalgia. With a flick of her wrist, the silk seemed to have come to life, red as fire, long as a dragon, and light as air.

“Go!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy grabbed one end of the red silk and flung it outward. The other end of the silk was like a whip, splitting the zheng leopard into two.

“Your ancestors didn’t even dare to breathe in my presence, yet you dared to injure Lu Yang?”
