Making People Obsessed Is Too Easy

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

Ju Yunxiu glared at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi innocently took a half step back.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Ju Yunxiu was filled with remorse, wishing she could bang her head against a wall. The so-called "Words become law" was actually an ability derived from the Way of the Book, which could only be used at her Shining Sun Realm. In a moment of joy, she wanted to brand her name on this brat's first magic Law Treasure, and that's how she did it. Now it was too late to take it back.

Just imagine him blowing and stroking the "Yunxiu" every day, and I get goosebumps all over.

"Give me the flute." Ju Yunxiu stretched out her hand. "I'll trade you something."

"I won't trade." Qin Yi took another step back. "This is my first Law Treasure, and it has great sentimental value."

"Do you believe I'll beat you up?"

"You are Fairy dwelling among the Yunxiu; you must maintain your image. Fighting monsters and seizing treasures is not suitable for you."

Ju Yunxiu chuckled at those words: "So you're a monster after all."

"Uh, actually, the meaning of 'monster' in 'fighting monsters' is quite broad; it's not just about monsters." Qin Yi cautiously probed, "Aren't you going to steal the flute anymore?"

Ju Yunxiu regained her elegance and sat back down calmly. "If you can complete a task, this little matter will be forgotten."

"What mission?"

Do you know how the major sects in the Immortal Realm find their successors?

Qin Yi was taken aback for a moment, then quickly remembered that these immortal sects were all secluded in the world, extremely far away, and generally unknown to the public. If people were to come here seeking immortals, it would probably take a thousand years to find even one or two.

If you want to find apprentices, of course you have to go out and look for them yourself, travel all over the world, and once you see a suitable prospect, examine him and take him under your wing.

The Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace is no exception... but there's a problem here. Other department heads can send their subordinates out to search, but the Art Department has no one... We can't let Ju Yunxiu leave the mountain for several years, leaving this place empty...

"Forget about me going out to lure your apprentice back; I don't have the time for that."

"You're quick-witted." Ju Yunxiu smiled slightly. "But you don't need to do this. The Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace has dedicated elders who will find talented and Spirit Root children of the right age and then each sect will select them."

Qin Yi suddenly realized. "Qing Cha isn't here right now, could it be that she's selecting people?"

Ju Yunxiu's smile became somewhat forced, "The idea of selecting people is a bit unrealistic... When children beg to join our sect, that's when we should be selecting people."

Qin Yi laughed, "Trying to steal students, huh? And you still say you're not a university."

"Um?"

"It's nothing," Qin Yi said with a smile. "You're even interested in teaching children?"

"Introduction and basic skills are things that can be taught by a few Enlightenment Disciples. It's a long way off before I'm personally teaching them," Ju Yunxiu said helplessly. "Besides, it's pointless to talk about it now; we can't find anyone."

"Why is it so serious?" Qin Yi asked curiously. "I think it's far too easy to lure children to our sect."

"Our sect... "Ju Yunxiu pondered for a moment, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

Although he is just a passer-by, Qin Yi is actually very close and distant. After he identifies with you, he has a strong sense of being "one of our own" and a bit of a quack.

"You're oversimplifying things." She smiled. "The Celestial Palace brings back a batch of children every sixty years, and we haven't received even a single one for six consecutive sixty years."

Six cycles of sixty years, 360 years ago you were already a department head recruiting students, and you still say you're not an old maid...

Qin Yi muttered to himself, but said aloud, "Don't kids all like pretty older Elder Sister? Why don't you just show off a few Law Technique yourself, and a bunch of kids will follow you? Who would want to gamble with a drunkard?"

Ju Yunxiu shook her head. "The various sects have agreed that the sect leader cannot appear in person, but can only have his disciples display things that can captivate people, and see which sect is the most attractive. This is also part of the competition among the various sects within the Immortal Palace, so that there is a comparison without hurting the harmony."

Qin Yi was utterly speechless. "What good is a Qing Cha? What about others? There's always the chess fanatic, isn't there?"

"Our chess-obsessed uncle wouldn't concern himself with such matters... Actually, we also have our Book Immortal Martial Uncle, but he... never mind." Ju Yunxiu sighed, "Besides, your displays of chess and calligraphy aren't very appealing. Based on past experience, the food and drink category attracts people the fastest, followed by the category of unusual skills. Our music and painting could originally attract some children, but compared to others, they are weaker, and the studies are tedious. They often lose interest quickly and switch to other categories. Getting them to become obsessed is easier said than done."

"Stop with all this talk of being obsessed with this and that. I think you're all a bunch of idiots. You've been stuck in the mountains for too long and have lost all sense of humanity." Qin Yi chuckled. "Leave this to me. If I can't entice someone to become obsessed with this, forget about the flute; I, the gatekeeper, will offer my head!"

Ju Yunxiu said, "If you can truly captivate people with this, then let alone the flute, what difficulty would it be for me to teach you step by step if you really wanted me to?"

"It's a deal," Qin Yi said with a smile. "Just paint a few pictures for me to take with me."

Upon reaching the edge of the mountain, a patch of green grass came into view, with more than ten children standing in the middle. The youngest was no more than four or five years old, while the oldest was already a teenager of thirteen or fourteen. There were both boys and girls. They were all looking around curiously, their innocent faces full of wonder.

There's a chubby uncle over there, and the food in his pot smells so good...

Children were already drooling, and I unconsciously moved my feet toward them.

There's a skinny old man over there, and that rocking horse can run by itself...

There's also an uncle who can tell fortunes; no matter where you hide a coin, he can predict it.

There were also scantily clad Elder Sister waving at you, making the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy's eyes turn into hearts.

Hmm, there's a pretty Elder Sister drawing over there, but it's not anything special.

The children scattered and went to play at their favorite stalls.

Looking at the empty space in front of her, Qing Cha almost burst into tears.

Just then, a song rang out behind me. "Don't underestimate me just because I'm a sheep, the green grass smells sweeter because of me..."

The children turned to look and saw a chubby little lamb pop out from behind the Elder Sister who was drawing, with circles on its head that looked like a lump of... well, you know.

Let alone children, even the immortals of the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace have never seen a sheep that looks like this... Is that even a sheep?

One child couldn't help but ask, "Are you a sheep?"

The fat sheep replied in a muffled voice, "My name is Lazy Sheep..."

As they were talking, a strange cat appeared behind them, baring its teeth and claws as it grabbed a cute mouse and ran around the area, both of their feet moving like wheels.

Everyone in the room stared in disbelief.

Are these monsters? They don't look like monsters. What kind of monsters are they?

The children were overjoyed and chased after the mouse and the fat sheep, leaving no trace behind.

A group of cultivators stared in disbelief.

The only remaining boy, around thirteen or fourteen years old, was still looking at the scantily clad young Elder Sister: "Those monsters are too childish, this Elder Sister is much prettier..."

"Clang!" The sound of a sword being drawn rang out.

The boy instinctively turned his head to look.

A girl dressed in blue with blond hair and a cowlick on her head stood with her sword planted on the ground. "I will not belong to anyone. Before becoming a woman, I am the queen!"

The boy stared at her blankly. "You... you're a monster too?"

The girl handed over the sword. "From now on, my sword will be with you, and my fate will be intertwined with yours."

Forget about revealing older Elder Sister, nothing beats the fun of anime girls...

A few seconds later, all the teenagers and children in the room climbed onto a handkerchief and disappeared in a flash.

A gentle breeze swept by, and leaves drifted down. The cultivators left standing there, petrified, still had their mouths agape.

What are all these things?

Why can't I understand any of them? Even the girls look different from humans, yet they're so cute... When did the Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting Sect start raising a bunch of new types of monsters?

Qing Cha leaped up, turned, and ran. "Uncle-Master, you're the best!"
