Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 420: Meng Jingzhou’s Romantic Peach-Blossom Luck

Below the arena stage, Lu Yang doubled over with laughter, tears rolling down his cheeks.

Zhao Po wanted to laugh too but found it improper to mock Meng Jingzhou, so he could only try his best to hold it in.

Meng Jingzhou’s face darkened. She’s even abolished the ancestral rule. What else can I say?

With the ancestral rule abolished, Qing Luo was freed from the restraints and felt as if heaven and earth had suddenly expanded before her. She withdrew from the stage without hesitation and headed back to her estate.

Meng Jingzhou leaped off the stage and glared fiercely at Lu Yang, who was still laughing, and Zhao Po, who was struggling to keep his laughter in.

The three humans, one corpse, and one horse entered the city. Perhaps because Meng Jingzhou’s romantic peach-blossom luck had been suppressed far too long, it was now unstoppable as it suddenly erupted all at once.

First, they encountered a woman selling herself to bury her father. Despite dressing in mourning clothes made of coarse hemp, her beauty still shone through. She claimed that she was willing to sell herself as a servant or concubine to bury her father. When she spotted Meng Jingzhou, she timidly called him “Young Master,” making his heart itch.

Although she had no cultivation and had missed the golden period for cultivating, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy recognized something special about her at a glance. “Interesting. This lass possesses the extremely rare Illusion-Shattering Dao Physique. Though she appears frail now, her Illusion-Shattering Dao physique is actually amassing strength. In six months to a year, her Dao physique will fully awaken, and she’ll soar to the sky in one go, quickly catching up to her peers’ cultivation speed.

“If some discerning old fellow were to take this little lass as a disciple and train her for a few years, her achievements would be even greater.”

The world knew of Nine Great Immortal Physiques, including Tao Yaoye’s Metamorphic Immortal Physique and Sixth Elder’s Immaculate Immortal Physique.

Apart from these, the Thirty-Six Dao Physiques were also widely recognized. While Dao physiques couldn’t compare to immortal physiques, those with Dao physiques still qualified as prodigies worthy of a spot in the upcoming Battle of the Great Era and becoming the left- and right-hand men of geniuses like Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou!

Meng Jingzhou was unaware of the girl’s background or physique. He simply found her pitiful and attractive, so he bought her.

Then, he got scammed.

The girl took the spirit stones, claiming that she was going to bury her father, then never returned.

When the trio went to report it, the authorities said that the girl was a repeat offender. They would open a case but advised them not to be hopeful, for she was notoriously hard to catch.

~~~

“Little beauty, just submit to this young master! I’ll give you endless wealth and glory!” A lecherous laughter rang out, clearly not belonging to a good person.

Meng Jingzhou perked up. I’m familiar with this scenario! Lu Yang had bragged about similar encounters and left him envious for a long time.

“Stop right there! How dare you harass decent women in my presence?!” Meng Jingzhou stepped forward with an air of righteousness, ready to act in the name of justice.

Afterward, he beat up the young master and his entire family. Even their old ancestor wailed in grievance, promising never to repeat their misdeeds.

The little beauty tearfully thanked Meng Jingzhou. “This humble woman will work like an ox and a horse to repay your kindness in my next life, savior!”

Then, she fled without looking back, unwilling to spend another moment with him.

~~~

As the trio sought lodging, an argument reached their ears.

“Lü'er, don’t you know my feelings for you? I really like you! Why do you keep refusing my love? Have I done something wrong?” A gloomy-looking nobleman in luxurious clothes persistently pressed a woman in light green for answers.

Unable to endure the nobleman’s pursuit any longer, Lü'er’s eyes lit up when she spotted the extraordinary aura of Meng Jingzhou’s trio.

“I really can’t accept your feelings. I already like someone else!”

The nobleman shook his head. “Lü'er, don’t lie. I don’t believe it.”

She pointed to Meng Jingzhou. “It’s him. He’s the one I like. We’ve already pledged our lives to each other!”

Meng Jingzhou thought that his romantic peach-blossom luck was finally here and even flaunted it to Lu Yang and Zhao Po by transmitting to them auditory messages.

Lu Yang cautioned Meng Jingzhou against acting recklessly and analyzed the situation for him. “That gloomy nobleman is clearly ruthless and looks like a local tyrant, someone not to be trifled with. He wants to claim Lü'er as his own, but Lü'er doesn’t like his type and finds a shield.

“It’s true that you’re not afraid of such local bullies, but Lü'er doesn’t know that. Since you two are strangers, she doesn’t know your identity or strength compared to that brooding nobleman. To block his advances, she pushed you to the front, forcing you to bear all the pressure.

“Under such circumstances, do you think she actually likes you?”

~~~

At the inn that night, a woman in stealth attire smashed through Meng Jingzhou’s window. She wore a veil, revealing only catlike emerald eyes. Her eyes glazed with the desire of spring, and she breathed heavily like she was poisoned and required masculine yang energy to neutralize it to avoid the risk of exploding from within.

Since only Meng Jingzhou was present in the room, only one solution remained.

The woman shot Meng Jingzhou a disgusted look, fished out a detoxification pill from her storage ring, and swallowed it. The effects kicked in immediately, and she swiftly departed with the wind.

In my line of work, I must naturally head out fully prepared.

Throughout the whole process, Meng Jingzhou didn’t even have a chance to speak.

~~~

After resting for the night, the three were prepared to set off. When they were about to check out, a fairly attractive young miss from an affluent family specifically approached Meng Jingzhou for help, as if she had seen her knight in shining armor. “Excuse me, may I ask if you’re not from around here?”

“Yes.”

She exhaled a sigh of relief. “That’s great, Mother won’t know you! Here’s the situation. My mother has been pushing me to marry, but I’m not willing, so I lied about having a boyfriend. I’ve gotten away with it all this while, but today she insisted on meeting my boyfriend. Can you pretend to be my boyfriend? I'll pay!”

Meng Jingzhou readily agreed.

“What’s going on?” Zhao Po was surprised.

“Who knows?” Lu Yang shrugged, not paying much attention.

Strangely, the meeting with the parents proceeded smoothly. Meng Jingzhou showcased his family background, character, cultivation, and sect—all ideal husband material. However, the young lady’s mother refused to agree, finding Meng Jingzhou displeasing to the eye no matter how she looked at him. Finally, she chased him out and exhorted her daughter to cut all ties with him.

Later, the young miss secretly explained to Meng Jingzhou, “I’m sorry. When I saw you for the first time, I already found you quite off-putting. My mother is similar to me, so she’d probably feel the same way and would definitely not approve of you as my boyfriend. This way, she’ll stop pestering me about marriage!

“This is the payment we agreed upon. Let’s never meet again.”

Meng Jingzhou, “...”

Motherf*cking curse! It’s not any better than before!

Throughout the journey, Meng Jingzhou’s romantic peach-blossom luck never stopped, finally running out at the end, and the trio successfully arrived at the Corpse-Driving Sect.
