Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Early Preparation
Translator: 549690339
There’s nothing new under the sun.
Such a scene made it hard for He Song not to think of something.
What kind of cultivator could be called notorious?
Who would determine?
Who would execute?
Perhaps, only the members of the Law Enforcement Team from Immortal City have such authority.
But who can guarantee that those members of the Law Enforcement Team from Immortal City won’t be blinded by greed, killing the innocent, taking credit and seizing resources for themselves?
Keep in mind.
They, coming from Immortal City, have great power and their cultivation is probably not low.
If they really want to do something, the cultivators living on the outskirts of Immortal Pavilion would not be able to resist.
At that time…
He Song’s face darkened slightly, feeling a sudden cold sweat on his back.
If such a situation were to occur, would the wealthy cultivators of Immortal Pavilion, those without a background, or even himself become ‘notorious’ cultivators?
With power in hand, the members of the Law Enforcement Team from Immortal City can determine at will; naturally, who is considered a notorious cultivator depends entirely on their mood.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to seize resources wouldn’t be impossible either.
He Song looked at Zhao Lin beside him.
After thinking for a while, He Song decided to give him a reminder.
“Taoist friend, when that time comes, who will be considered a ‘notorious’ cultivator?”
A faint voice echoed, but He Song’s heart was already filled with the idea of leaving Immortal Pavilion immediately and returning only after the people from the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team had left.
Now.
He Song had already mastered two Array Skills and practiced some self-protection skills.
Apart from lacking Artifacts and being slightly inadequate in spirit amulets, He Song’s fifth-tier Qi Refining cultivation meant he only needed to be careful while walking outside, or set up an Illusion Array and hide inside it to ensure safety.
This time, he didn’t have to rely on his friends like the last time when the great disaster struck; his low cultivation and inability to give up the benefits of Immortal Pavilion forced him to hide in his friend’s house and leave his fate to the heavens.
With his face showing no signs, He Song began to plan his next move in his heart.
However.
With He Song’s reminder, Zhao Lin finally realized the implications.
“Dao friend, do you mean…” Zhao Lin’s expression changed in an instant from surprise to contemplative, and then to horror.
When Meng Guan introduced Zhao Lin to He Song as a contact, he mentioned that Zhao Lin’s character was cautious, quite similar to He Song.
And precisely because Zhao Lin’s character was relatively cautious.
After hearing He Song’s reminder, he could understand He Song’s meaning right away.
That’s right!
When that time comes.
Who would be those ‘notorious’ cultivators?
It could be wealthy Loose cultivators, real notorious cultivators or, even more likely, someone who is deemed ‘notorious’ simply because they are displeasing or advantageous to be killed.
Such a method would not only cleanse Immortal Pavilion of notorious cultivators but also allow them to take advantage of their newly acquired power to quickly fill their own pockets.
Which member of the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team could resist such a temptation?
Bear in mind, Zhao Lin was an amulet Tao master, with considerable wealth.
If something were to happen, he would likely be the first target.
Having understood this, Zhao Lin’s once joyful face immediately turned serious.
Before He Song’s reminder, he was still immersed in the imaginary improvement of Immortal Pavilion’s atmosphere, completely unaware of the impending crisis.
Not until this moment.
Only under extreme fear did he finally react.
“Dao friend, I will be leaving Immortal Pavilion soon to travel outside. If you have any connections, could you entrust someone to manage my spirit field? I am willing to pay thirty spirit stones as a reward.”
Seeing Zhao Lin’s rapid change of expression, He Song timely clasped his hands and spoke.
Run!
Must run!
Now! Run right away!
He Song had already decided not to return to this haunted place until the people from the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team leave.
If he stayed in Immortal Pavilion, nobody would know whose side would come out on top- the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team or his own powerful backing.
Instead of living in fear, it’s better to turn around and leave.
As long as his spirit field is still being managed, he won’t lose his identity as a spiritual plant farmer.
He could come back after the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team leaves.
By then.
Life would go on as usual.
“Thank you, fellow Daoist, for your advice. Rest assured about the spirit field matter, I will arrange it properly. I shall take my leave now.” Zhao Lin deeply saluted He Song, then turned and left.
Seeing his hurried manner, it seemed as if he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to leave the next moment.
Back in the room.
Seeing Zhao Lin running away, He Song immediately closed the door.
He entered the quiet room.
He Song made a hand seal and cast a spell.
Suddenly.
Streams of light flew from various parts of the quiet room towards He Song, landing on his hand.
When the light disappeared, He Song’s hand held fourteen Array Foundations.
Five Spirit-Gathering Arrays.
Nine Illusion Arrays.
A total of fourteen Array Foundations were all in his hand.
As long as he had these Array Foundations, he could set up the two arrays elsewhere.
Although it would take about ten days to re-establish the arrays to achieve maximum efficiency.
At this moment, with the urgency of the situation, He Song couldn’t care less.
Storing all the Array Foundations in his storage bag, He Song quickly began to pack up other things.
However, due to the limited space in the storage bag, he could only bring some valuable items such as tea sets, tea leaves, and spirit rice.
Once the storage bag was packed full, a thin piece of paper appeared in He Song’s hand.
“Wei, I’ve received news that the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team will be arriving at Immortal Pavilion soon to eliminate ‘notorious’ cultivators.”
“But the definition of ‘notorious’ depends solely on the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team’s decision.”
“This is a serious matter, so I plan to leave Immortal Pavilion temporarily and return after the law enforcement team has left.”
“Please be prepared, Wei.”
“He Song.”
With a display of spirit power, the thin paper in He Song’s hands transformed into a sound-transmitting paper crane and flew into the sky. At the same time, He Song stepped out of the door.
This moment.
The blazing sun was high in the sky,
The scorching sunlight fell on He Song, but it did not bring him any warmth.
On the contrary, his speculations in his mind made him feel chills to the bottom of his heart.
This matter was of great importance.
If he had been too suspicious.
Then it would be fine, at least it meant that the higher-ups of Immortal Pavilion would have some restraint over the incoming Law Enforcement Team from Immortal City.
But if everything was as he predicted…
He Song shook his head, casting aside the shuddering feeling in his heart.
Anyway, he had already left, and whatever happened in Immortal Pavilion had nothing to do with him.
With the Light Body Skill activated, He Song quickly rushed out of Immortal Pavilion, heading towards the endless mountains in the distance..
