Can't Figure It Out

The group turned around at the same time, but Yue Qianchou's heart was pounding. He pretended not to hear and continued walking forward. After taking only a few steps outside, Bi Changchun's voice came again. "If you dare to walk any further, I'll take off both your legs."

Yue Qianchou shuddered and quickly stopped, turning around awkwardly with a forced smile, "Is the Old Ancestor calling me?"

Bi Changchun ignored him and said in a deep voice to Bi Shouzhi and the other three, "You go, he stays." The four glanced at Yue Qianchou, wondering why their Old Ancestor wanted to keep him here. Though hesitant, they dared not linger and quickly departed. As they brushed past Yue Qianchou, they shook their heads apologetically. They could only blame their Old Ancestor for being too powerful; even with their good relationship with Yue Qianchou, they dared not speak up for him. Wu Sihai even gave him a look of self-satisfaction.

The flying shuttle carrying the four people soared into the air and quickly departed. Below, Yue Qianchou's gaze lingered reluctantly until the shuttle disappeared from sight before he turned around. Bi Changchun's gaze swept over him for a moment, then he said with a hint of doubt, "Strange, I can't see through your cultivation level. What could be the reason for that?"

"Since the Qi Refining stage, no one has been able to see through my cultivation level. It must be innate." After saying this, Yue Qianchou suddenly paused and asked in astonishment, "Senior, you didn't keep me here because you couldn't see through my cultivation level?"

"Born that way? Such a physique exists? I've never heard of it before." Bi Changchun frowned, not answering his subsequent question. Yue Qianchou, on the other hand, immediately felt a tangible Divine Sense thoroughly examining his body, as if hands were touching him all over, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, yet he dared not resist.

After examining him, Bi Changchun shook his head and said, "I thought there was some kind of trickery that could fool me, but it seems it's truly innate." He then waved to Yue Qianchou, saying, "It's alright, you can go now!"

"Uh..." Yue Qianchou's expression twitched, and he cursed Bi Changchun's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart. Just because of this, he kept him here, and after the matter was over, he told him to get lost. How arrogant! He should at least give him some mental comfort!

Unfortunately, the opponent was too powerful, and he dared not speak out against it. Yue Qianchou gritted his teeth, bowed, and said, "Senior, please understand. With my cultivation level, it is truly difficult for me to leave this Demon Ghost Domain alone. I wonder if you could..."

"What business is it of mine what your cultivation level is?" Bi Changchun outwardly serene exterior lay a cold heart. He glanced at Yue Qianchou and said coldly, "I didn't invite you here. How you leave the Demon Ghost Domain is your own business. If you keep arguing, you can stay here forever." With that, he turned and went inside.

"I..." Yue Qianchou hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping himself. He had originally wanted to ask if the other party had any spiritual treasures or similar items, so that he could have something to protect himself and leave the Demon Ghost Domain safely. However, the other party did not even give him a chance to finish speaking, but instead threw out a threatening remark, which made him feel quite choked up.

"You old bastard!" Yue Qianchou could only curse inwardly. He drew his longsword, propelling himself into the air. Floating in the air, Yue Qianchou glanced resentfully at the scene below, thinking, "Old bastard, if you've got the guts, don't die so young. Wait until I get back to pay the interest!"

With a flick of his sleeve, he was about to soar into the air, but before he had flown far, he suddenly found himself unable to move. Then, a powerful suction force that he could not resist pulled him back.

"Damn it!" Yue Qianchou yelled, not even realizing what was happening, when he was pulled back to the ground like a kite on a string. By the time he came to his senses and tried to flash back to Utopia, "Bang!" his body slammed into the ground, leaving him dizzy and seeing stars, his mind blank.

Lying on the ground, it took a long time for me to regain consciousness. My bones felt like they were falling apart, and I was in excruciating pain. A hot liquid was blocking my mouth and nose, making it hard to breathe. I closed my eyes, held my breath, and forced the liquid out of my nose. Only after I could breathe again did I feel much better. I struggled to raise my hand to wipe the liquid running down my cheek, and what I saw was a glaring bright red stain on the back of my hand.

Injured? Yue Qianchou's pupils dilated considerably. Enduring the excruciating pain, he gritted his teeth and shakily got to his feet, grimacing as he circled around, searching for his enemy. There stood Bi Changchun, watching him from the doorway. Needless to say, it was Bi Changchun who had done it. In Yue Qianchou immediately burst into a tirade. "Bi Changchun, you old bastard, what did I ever do to you...!"

His words trailed off mid-sentence as he realized the man before him was an incredibly powerful figure, capable of taking his life at any moment. He dared not utter another word, immediately locking his Divine Sense onto the golden pearl, ready to pounce. He wouldn't disappear in front of Bi Changchun unless absolutely necessary. If he aroused the old man's curiosity, he feared he'd never be able to show his face in the Cultivation World again; given the other's cultivation level, a single appearance would likely be discovered.

Bi Changchun had probably not been scolded like this in a long time. He was stunned by Yue Qianchou's scolding. After a slight fluctuation in his expression, he calmed down and said in a tone without any emotion, "I just happen to be short of someone to grow vegetables here. You don't have to leave. You can stay and grow vegetables."

"Growing vegetables?" Yue Qianchou asked timidly, thinking he had misheard. Seeing that Bi Changchun did not answer and went back into the house, he immediately felt relieved.

He stood silently for a while, dragging his injured body around, looking around, unsure of where to go, feeling rather alone. At this moment, the tall, thin young man dressed as a farmer walked up to him, stared at Yue Qianchou with curiosity, a hint of admiration flashing in his expression, and then nodded with a smile, saying, "Are you alright? My name is He Li, come with me."

Yue Qianchou was a little confused, not knowing what was going on. His mind was a mess. Seeing that the other party was friendly, he nodded and said, "It's okay, my name is Yue Qianchou."

"I know." The young man named He Li smiled, turned around, and waved, "Yue Qianchou, come with me."

Yue Qianchou recalled the flying sword on the ground and hurried a few steps. His chest churned again, and a sweet taste rose in his throat. He couldn't hold it in and spat out another mouthful of blood mist with a "poof." He Li walked ahead, turning back to smile, "There won't be any major problems. Master knows how to control himself."

"Damn it! Try falling from that height yourself if you dare!" Yue Qianchou rolled his eyes, not forgetting to glare fiercely at the room where Bi Changchun was before leaving. Little did he know that Bi Changchun inside was frowning and muttering, "Strange thing, when this kid circulates his True Essence, why do I sense a fiery aura? But after a careful inspection, I haven't found anything..."

The two walked several hundred meters through the lush forest and came to a relatively flat but barren and overgrown area. He Li pointed to the wasteland within a hundred meters in diameter and said with a smile, "Once you recover from your injuries, this land will be yours to cultivate. You can build a residence here. You can cut down whatever kind of timber you need on the island. After the house is built, I will send you the seeds you want to plant."

Yue Qianchou asked suspiciously, "Grow vegetables?" He Li turned his head and smiled, "Yes, grow vegetables. We can keep each other company in the future."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qianchou looked around blankly at the barren land, somewhat bewildered. It felt like a dream; how had he been accidentally brought here to grow vegetables...?
