A while later.
In Wei Fan’s courtyard.
He Song stayed in Wei Fan’s house for an hour before he saw Wei Fan return from a distance.
After ushering in Wei Fan, who had returned from his investigation, He Song deliberately poured him a cup of tea and sat beside him, waiting for Wei Fan to speak.
Picking up the cup of tea He Song had specially poured for him.
Wei Fan drank it in one gulp, and only then did his furrowed brows relax. After taking a long sigh, he finally spoke.
“Phew, fellow Daoist, you can inform your good friend working at the Spiritual
Medicine Pavilion to remove Chen Zhou’s name from the spiritual plant farmer position.” Wei Fan’s eyes flashed with anger, then he continued.
“Chen Zhou is not as gentle as you saw him. He often relies on his Qi-refining mid-stage cultivation and bullies Qi Refining Early Stage cultivators, extorts spirit stones, and since no one has died yet, the Law Enforcement Team cannot do anything about it.”
“The people of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion are blind to have recruited such a person as a spiritual plant farmer. I don’t know what the person who recruited him into the Immortal Pavilion was thinking. Such a reputation among Loose cultivators is disgraceful.”
“In addition, when I went to investigate earlier, Chen Zhou was secretly inquiring about your information. It seems that he has ill intentions. So, I didn’t continue the investigation and returned directly.”
“Let’s do as you said, remove his title of spiritual plant farmer first, then force him to leave the Immortal Pavilion. At that time, I will take action.” Wei Fan put down his teacup, his face showing a touch of gloom.
He spoke lightly of the matter.
However, during his investigation, he discovered that Chen Zhou had brought all the bad habits of Loose cultivators into the Immortal Pavilion, making the surroundings of his living area smoky and chaotic.
Loose cultivators, due to a lack of restraint in the outside world, naturally have warped personalities.
Killing for treasures, extortion, and bullying the weak are things they are adept at.
Among Loose cultivators, such behavior is very common. Only those with inherently pure natures don’t care about these matters.
However, Loose cultivators with pure natures don’t last long in this circle unless they have extraordinary luck.
What about Chen Zhou?
He was originally a Loose cultivator, but with his Qi-refining mid-stage cultivation, he joined the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion and became a spiritual plant farmer.
If he had joined the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion and obeyed the rules of the Immortal Pavilion, being law-abiding and keeping a low profile, it would be acceptable.
But he didn’t.
He brought everything he learned as a Loose cultivator into the Immortal Pavilion.
He even exploited loopholes in the Immortal Pavilion’s laws, bullying the weak and extorting others.
This made the originally peaceful atmosphere in the Immortal Pavilion smoky and chaotic.
So when Wei Fan, who had qrown up in the Thick Earth Mansion and lived in
the Immortal Pavilion all this time, saw all this, he was immediately enraged.
These corrupt behaviors of Loose cultivators could be ignored outside the Immortal Pavilion, and he could pretend not to see them.
But Chen Zhou brought this all into the Immortal Pavilion, tarnishing the “pure land” in Wei Fan’s heart.
Therefore, the extent of Wei Fan’s anger can be imagined.
He had grown up in the Thick Earth Mansion and was nurtured as an outer disciple of the Thick Earth Sect.
It wasn’t until his cultivation was deemed too low that he was demoted to the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, becoming the Steward of the Spirit Construction Pavilion.
He had always lived in a relatively stable environment.
His understanding of Loose cultivators also stemmed mainly from books.
Even so, he had been rather disdainful of Loose cultivators before.
But it wasn’t until today.
When Chen Zhou’s behavior appeared in front of him, he saw the true nature of Loose cultivators for the first time.
“Alright, I’ll inform him right away.” After listening to Wei Fan’s description, He Song felt both relieved and a little afraid.
Fortunately, he had been cautious enough.
If not, he would probably still be clueless when Chen Zhou comes looking for him one night.
He was glad that he had asked Zhao Lin to investigate Chen Zhou’s background.
After sensing something was off, he immediately went to Wei Fan’s place.
If there had been any mistakes in these steps, he would have been constantly targeted by Chen Zhou in the future and unable to live in peace.
At the same time, He Song reminded himself not to judge people by their appearances in the future.
Even if they appear humble and polite in front of him, like a refined gentleman, he must find out their background, especially those who have offended him.
Take this time with Chen Zhou, for example.
In front of him, Chen Zhou was very submissive.
But who would have thought that when facing other cultivators with lower cultivation levels, he would be a bully, committing all sorts of nefarious deeds and extorting spirit stones.
Only because his own cultivation was at the Qi-refining mid-stage and he had Zhao Lin from the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion as his backer, that Chen Zhou didn’t turn against him on the spot.
If he were weaker or if Zhao Lin were not a manager of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, his situation would have been different.
Moreover, while not completely breaking ties with him at the time, he still secretly inquired about his information.
The intentions of Chen Zhou can be easily guessed.
He Song exhaled deeply, and with a flick of his fingers, a blank piece of paper appeared in his hand.
“Brother Zhao, that Chen Zhou has a perverse personality, bullies weaker fellows, extorts spirit stones, and engages in all sorts of evil deeds. His crimes are extremely heinous. I have asked my good friend to help me verify this.”
“I originally intended to deal with him directly, but the Immortal Pavilion prohibits infighting, so we have to abide.”
“Therefore, I can only ask my fellow Daoist to remove his name from the spiritual plant farmer list and force him to leave the Immortal Pavilion. After that, we’ll plan the next step.”
“This matter is of great importance, related to my safety and life. I hope my fellow Daoist can help.”
“He Song.”
As his fingers constantly moved, strands of spirit power were released, and soon several lines of writing appeared on the paper.
However, just as He Song was about to fold it into a paper crane and release it with the Sound Transmission Skill, Wei Fan from the side shook his head and signaled for He Song to wait.
“Allow me to add a few words.”
Saying this, Wei Fan’s fingers were already exuding spiritual power, and he left a name along with his own aura on the paper.
“Wei Fan.”
Seeing this, He Song nodded and did not stop him.
This was good news.
With the aura of Wei Fan, who was at the Qi-refining late stage, Zhao Lin would understand immediately upon receiving the sound-transmitting paper crane.
He Song had already asked a cultivator at the Qi-refining late stage to deal with Chen Zhou.
As He Song’s good friend,
he would do He Song a favor and remove Chen Zhou’s name from the list of spiritual plant farmers, knowing that He Song was well-prepared. It was a trivial matter.
In this way, Zhao Lin didn’t have to worry about Chen Zhou causing trouble in the future.
A cultivator at the Qi-refining late stage would deal with Chen Zhou, who was at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining.
Chen Zhou would certainly perish without a doubt.
Wei Fan left his name and aura on the paper because of this reason.
He didn’t know the extent of the relationship between He Song and Zhao Lin, but if his name and aura were on the paper, Zhao Lin would be more likely to help.
That was all.
He Song released the sound-transmitting paper crane.
He Song and Wei Fan waited for a moment.
Soon.
A sound-transmitting paper crane quickly came speeding from a distance..
