Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Cultivator with Three No’s

The words fell.
He Song’s figure had already walked to one side.
Although it was somewhat difficult to maintain the Spirit Rain Skill while moving, to avoid seeing Chen Zhou once more, He Song still carefully manipulated the Spirit Rain Skill and left Chen Zhou’s side.
Facing this kind of a cultivator who didn’t know right from wrong, He Song was cautious, but within the Immortal Pavilion, he wasn’t fearful. Chen Zhou was just a spiritual plant farmer at the fourth- tier of Qi Refining.
His cultivation level was similar to He Song’s.
Even if ambushed, as long as He Song remained vigilant, he could not be caught off-guard.
At the same time, Chen Zhou seemed to have no connections or background.
Otherwise, he would not have easily let Zhao Lin take away two acres of his spirit field and transfer them to He Song.
Moreover, when his own spirit field was suddenly taken away, he did not cause trouble for Zhao Lin, but sought He Song to exchange with him, proving that this man had a bully the weak and fear the strong character.
No background.
No threat.
No courage.
Facing such a cultivator, He Song couldn’t find any reason to fear him.
Thinking this way in his heart, He Song quickly decided to return to the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion later and ask Zhao Lin to investigate Chen Zhou’s background.
If there was nothing to find, all the better.
But if Chen Zhou truly had something hidden, He Song might have to ask others to take care of this trouble for him.
“You…”
Chen Zhou flushed red at these words, pointing at He Song and wanting to say something, but after a tremble of his lips, ultimately said nothing.
Stamping his foot, seeing He Song concentrating on the Spirit Rain Skill and not paying attention to him, Chen Zhou dawdled for a while before finally leavmg In trustratlon.
He Song’s cold refusal.
And his friend who managed the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.
Although Chen Zhou was angry, he did not dare to continue to pester him. The manager of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion was a powerful figure, and compared to him, a small spiritual plant farmer, they were as different as heaven and earth.
He simply could not afford to provoke them.
He couldn’t provoke the manager of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.
And he couldn’t provoke He Song, the manager’s good friend, either.
So he had no choice but to leave.
However, as he walked away, He Song faintly heard voices muttering things like “overbearing”, “committing many evils”, “exploiting fellow villagers”, and “borrowing a tiger’s might.”
He Song didn’t care about these comments, but he kept his eyes on Chen Zhou and quietly noted the direction he took as he left.
Soon.
He Song completely irrigated the two acres of spirit field that had been newly transferred to his name.
Instead of continuing to the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, He Song followed the direction in which Chen Zhou had left, walking leisurely.
Unfortunately, after walking quite a distance, He Song was unable to find out where Chen Zhou lived.
With no other choice, He Song had to return home.
But upon returning home, He Song picked up a piece of paper.
“Brother Zhao, I encountered a man named Chen Zhou in the spirit field today, who is at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining.”
“He offered ten spirit stones, claiming that the two acres of spirit field belonged to him before, and wanted to exchange spirit fields with me. I refused, and then he left sullenly.”
“I hope Brother Zhao can help me investigate this person’s background since my cultivation level is low, and I fear retaliation.” “If anything is amiss, please let me know.”
“He Song.”
Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.
Zhao Lin quickly received the sound -transmitting paper crane sent by He Song.
After reading the paper carefully, Zhao Lin frowned and destroyed it.
He couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.
Cursing inwardly.
“I finally helped a friend out with something, and now this Chen Zhou is just causing trouble.”
After doing a favor for He Song, Zhao Lin now received a sound-transmitting paper crane asking him to help investigate Chen Zhou’s background in case of retaliation.
This…
Isn’t this a slap in my own face?
I helped a friend with great difficulty, and although the task was completed, the aftermath was not cleaned up properly.
I even reassured myself back then that everything was fine.
Thinking about the words He Song said when he came, Zhao Lin felt extremely embarrassed at this moment.
How could he hold his head up in front of his friends in the future?
Thinking of these things, Zhao Lin’s gaze gradually turned hostile.
Then, he took out a thick book and flipped through it quickly.
After a long period.
Zhao Lin finally raised his head, his heart slightly tense.
“Chen Zhou, cultivation at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining, Loose cultivator background, age 31.”
“Three years ago, he was recruited to join the Immortal Pavilion as a spiritual plant farmer, and has been so until today.”
Found him.
Chen Zhou was recruited to join the Immortal Pavilion three years ago.
Three years ago…
With a flash of reminiscence in his eyes, Zhao Lin’s gaze quickly became obscure and unclear.
When exactly was three years ago?
Three years ago was when Master Cheng Shan left the Immortal Pavilion, followed by the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion being attacked by the Evil Cultivator!
Since then, the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion has become more relaxed in recruiting spiritual plant farmers.
That’s because many spiritual plant farmers died in that catastrophe, leaving the spirit fields unattended. Thus, the higher-ups of the Immortal Pavilion were eager to recruit more farmers to fill the vacancies.
That was when Zhao Lin, who had responsibilities, recruited one Loose cultivator after another.
This Chen Zhou must have been recruited by him at that time as well.
Caution flashed in Zhao Lin’s eyes.
Loose cultivator.
Loose cultivator background.
He was able to cultivate to the Qi-refining mid stage before joining the Immortal Pavilion.
This Chen Zhou must have something extraordinary!
It is extremely difficult to successfully pass through the most vulnerable Qi Refining Early Stage in the highly mortal Loose cultivator group and break through to the Qi-refining mid stage.
Nonetheless, Chen Zhou still managed to break through.
From this, it can be inferred that Chen Zhou must be more than what he appears to be on the surface.
With this in mind, a piece of paper quickly appeared in Zhao Lin’s hand.
“Chen Zhou, cultivation at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining, Loose cultivator background, age 31.”
“Three years ago, he was recruited to join the Immortal Pavilion as a spiritual plant farmer, and has been so until today.”
“I could only find this much information. However, according to my speculation, this Chen Zhou, who successfully broke through to the Qi-refining mid stage as a Loose cultivator, might not be as simple as he seems on the surface.”
“Be careful, my friend. I sincerely apologize for causing this trouble for you. If there’s anything I can help with, I will not shirk my responsibilities.”
“I hope you won’t blame me.”
“Zhao Lin.”
Quickly.
He Song, who was cultivating at home, received Zhao Lin’s sound-transmitting paper crane.
Scanning the words on the paper, He Song’s brow furrowed gradually.
He joined the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion three years ago, becoming a spiritual plant farmer.
But before joining the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, this Chen Zhou was already a fourth-tier Qi Refining cultivator.
That is to say, Zhao Lin’s speculation is not baseless; on the contrary, his guess
However, what about the Chen Zhou he confronted previously?
One, he had no background.
Two, he had no threat.
Three, he had no courage and wisdom.
How would he explain the Chen Zhou he had seen?
If He Song remembered correctly,
Chen Zhou was very submissive in front of him, not even daring to say any harsh words when leaving.
He only dared to mutter words like ‘bullying and domineering’ and ‘pretending to be a tiger’ after walking far away..
