Turns Out You Were All So Restrained When I Was Around?

The governor of Qingzhou led a large contingent of officials to Buyi Town. He slammed down his governor's seal, and the rules that enveloped the town crumbled into invisible fragments, gradually collapsing.

This was not due to his own power, but rather the authority granted to him by the Great Xia Dynasty, allowing him to mobilize a small portion of humanitarian power.

This wasn't the first time the group of cultivators had dealt with something like this. With them in charge, the notion that one shouldn't make eye contact with the private tutor, or that the thatched hut was dangerous during the day, all became a joke.

They captured the private tutor, uncovered the shadowy figure hiding in the thatched hut, investigated how many were living corpses and how many were actually alive, and researched whether those who had turned into black dogs could be restored... Everything was proceeding smoothly.

The Immortal Fairy had never seen such a scene before. In High Antiquity times, there was no concept of a nation, and the system built around clans did not have such a clear division of labor and orderly organization.

According to the Silent Daoist, this was only the strength of the dynasty. If the dynasty were to join forces with the Five Great Immortal Sects, they could sweep through the ancient cultivators.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou found the innkeeper they had rescued. The innkeeper was overjoyed to see the two of them and wept with joy. He hadn't expected that these two could actually solve the problem, and in such a short time.

He really shouldn't have suspected that Lu Yang and his companion were Devil Cultivator.

Qingzhou officials also discovered evidence that the pharmacy owner was a henchman of the town mayor, who had harmed countless people. Under the constraints of the rules, the pharmacy owner seemed to be telling the truth, but in reality, he was concealing things and had harmed many people.

The pharmacy apprentice, the private tutor, the yamen runner, the restaurant owner who makes meat buns... all these people were imprisoned pending the investigation of the truth before a decision was made.

The governor of Qingzhou wrote a memorial on the spot, intending to report the matter of the three men to the imperial court, but was stopped by the Silent Daoist, who instructed the governor to conceal the names of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, though the due reward was still given.

The Silent Daoist invited two outstanding juniors to dinner at the most prosperous restaurant in Qingzhou.

"Haha, it's finally over!"

"Although our travel plans encountered a minor setback, it's nothing serious. Once we've eaten and drunk our fill, I'll show you around the bustling south of the continent."

"Since your senior sister isn't here, the three of us can have some fun. Don't worry, I'll take care of everything if anything goes wrong!"

The Silent Daoist laughed heartily. The rest was handled by the government, so he had nothing to do with it. Now that he was finally free, he naturally wanted to let loose and have some fun.

"Oh? Is that so? You were quite reserved when I was around?"

A cold voice abruptly silenced the Silent Daoist's laughter.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou then realized that the restaurant, which should have been bustling with activity, had become quiet. Only their table was chatting and laughing. Now, the three of them were all silent, and the entire restaurant was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The guests noticed early on that a stunningly beautiful woman had arrived at the restaurant. The moment she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention. People were amazed by her beauty and aura, and subconsciously shut their mouths, not daring to even breathe loudly, for fear of being noticed by her.

The woman chose a table, sat down, and quietly watched the three masters and their disciples letting loose.

No one could see that the woman was also holding two chains, binding two soul entities.

Finally, the woman spoke, and only then did the three of them see her.

"Oh, it's Xiaoyun! Come, come, sit down and eat with us." The Silent Daoist forced a smile.

"Hello, Senior Sister." Lu Yang and his companion greeted her politely.

The Silent Daoist looked at the two chains in Yun Zhi's hands with some surprise, recognizing that the one bound was the escaped Nascent Body Integration Realm.

"Xiaoyun, when did you find us?"

"From the first time you unleashed the technique of one sword transforming into ten thousand swords and becoming one with the sword."

The Silent Daoist broke out in a cold sweat. This had happened just a day ago; no wonder Xiao Yun was able to catch those two.

He calmly thought about it and realized that he hadn't said anything bad about Xiaoyun that day, which was good.

The two Body Integration Realm who had been captured stared in horror at Yun Zhi. This person had merely flicked her palm from a distance, yet she had sent their souls flying. What level of skill did she possess?

Why are they encountering these monsters one after another?!

Where are the promised High Antiquity reappearing, bringing countless fortuitous opportunity? Where are the fortuitous opportunity? Danger lurks everywhere!

"Originally, I was just worried that you wouldn't know the way and might lead the two of you astray. I didn't expect you two to have so much fun while I was away." Yun Zhi's tone was calm, which sent chills down the spines of the three of them.

Meng Jingzhou reacted the fastest, pointing at Lu Yang: "It's all Lu Yang's fault. I didn't want to come originally, but Lu Yang called me over."

Lu Yang pointed back at the Silent Daoist: "It's all Master's fault. Master said he had to fulfill his responsibility as a master and bring me out to see the world!"

The Silent Daoist pointed at Meng Jingzhou: "It was this kid's grandfather who asked me to take care of his grandson, so I took them out to play!"

The Silent Daoist's extensive experience in causing trouble taught him that shifting the blame to someone who wasn't present was the wisest choice.

Yun Zhi's cold gaze swept over the three of them. "Master, you continue to go outside and spread the glorious deeds of my Ask Dao Sect. Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, you two come back with me."

Yun Zhi was worried that Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou would pick up their master's bad habits.

Before taking the two back, Yun Zhi said to the Silent Daoist, "Please tell the governor of Qingzhou on the way that I have captured the man, so there is no need to be so nervous."

Yun Zhi wanted to bring back two Body Integration Realm prisoners to see if she could obtain any useful information.

On the way back, Lu Yang asked his senior sister for credit, saying that he had killed a Body Integration Realm and asked if he could get contribution points.

Yun Zhi asked in confusion, "Wasn't it Huang Doudou who killed the Body Integration Realm?"

Upon hearing this, the Immortal Fairy disregarded Yun Zhi's direct address and excitedly asked, "Can I get contribution points?"

"You Non-Self Ask Dao Sect, so naturally you cannot."

Without even thinking, the Immortal Fairy said directly, "Then I will join the Ask Dao Sect."

Lu Yang stared at the Immortal Fairy in astonishment. How could she just join like that? What happened to her airs as an immortal?

Yun Zhi nodded. "It is certainly not impossible for an immortal to join the Ask Dao Sect. I can grant you special permission to become the first guest elder of the Ask Dao Sect, but only I know your identity. In return, you will receive contribution points for this event and the same offerings as an elder. If you agree to these conditions, then you can join."

"Join." The Immortal Fairy quite liked the atmosphere of the Ask Dao Sect; it was very similar to her own personality, which was quite rare.

Yun Zhi mentioned another matter, saying to Lu Yang, "A few days ago, the Palace Master of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace came to me, saying that she wanted to compensate Lanting with you."

"I think you've reached the age to get married. The Ask Dao Sect and the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace are considered a good match, so they agreed to let you two become dao companion. But later, for some reason, the Palace Master of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace changed her mind. Do you have any clues? Is it because they think you're not good enough?"

Lu Yang was completely confused.
