Wen Zhao’s expression was as rich as the content in the storybook. He looked at the other party in astonishment: “Xiao Shishu, you…”
Qingwu took out two volumes from the four storybooks and stuffed “The Cold Xianzun and the Enchanting Mozun” and “What should I do if Shizun loves me too much” into his arms: “I’ll keep the rest for reading.”
Wen Zhao took the storybook and was at a loss: “Why did you give me these two books?”
Qingwu winked, there seemed to be peach blossoms flying in his eyes: “Do you want the Rebellious Disciples Always Disrespecting Their Superiors? Shishu feels that your rank is still too low compared to your Shizun, so you should simply give up and lay down. ”
Wen Zhao was confused and did not understand what these words meant.
In his eyes, the Shizun was cold and ascetic, and could not be blasphemed. All crooked ways have nothing to do with the Shizun. Even if he did live in the mortal world and was stained with a little yellow waste, he would not dare to think of Shizun in this way at all.
What’s more, during the more than twenty years that he struggled to survive in the secular world, his purpose was simply to “live, make money, and do something for the welfare home.” He never thought of pursuing a higher level of spiritual development on this basis.
Therefore, although he could roughly guess what was written in the storybook, he could not apply those things to himself.
He seems to have a natural sense of separation from worldly reality.
Wen Zhao did not refuse his Xiao Shishu’s kindness and stuffed the storybook into the storage space: “I will take a look.”
While the two were talking, Qingzhe had already carried Cheng Yan outside the house. He looked at his apprentice with disgust: “Take off your clothes, this purple color is really an eyesore.”
“Why is purple an eyesore?” Cheng Yan said unconvinced, “Should I be baring my chest like you?”
“You kid, you still dare to talk back to me!”
Qingwu came to them like a gust of wind, looked at Cheng Yan and said, “According to your Shizu, this is called ‘Gay Purple’.”
“What is a gay?”
“It’s when…men and men get together.”
“That’s not good…” Cheng Yan scratched his head, a strange blush appeared on his face, “If it’s Fengming shidi, I can accept it.”
Qingzhe slapped him directly on the back of the head: “Do you want to die! If you perish by the sword of your Shishu one day, don’t blame me for not saving you.”
Wen Zhao pretended not to hear their conversation and walked closer to Yan Lin. He saw that he was covering his lips and coughing quietly. There was a cup of cold tea in his hand. He must have just drank from it, as there was a little tea stain on the rim of the cup.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Wen Zhao poured out the overnight cold tea, put in the tea leaves again, and boiled the water in the teapot by holding it with both hands: “Shizun, don’t drink something so cold, it’s not good for your health.”

Yan Lin paused for a moment, as if he didn’t expect him to ask this question, and then said after a while: “I went to Tianzhu Mountain not to find divine fire, but because Tianzhu Mountain is the highest peak in the Immortal Realm. There is a door on the top of the mountain, and behind the door is the entrance to the Boundless Universe. This door will only open when a cultivator is about to ascend.”

Wen Zhao’s face was full of shock: “Shizu…kicked…the door to the Boundless Universe open?”
“Is it unbelievable?” Yan Lin leaned back and leaned his back on the back of the wheelchair. “As for when the divine fire, Frost Encrusted Flame, appeared there, I really don’t know. I thought it might be of use for you, so I took the risk and went to pick it, but was injured by the strong wind on the way.”
It was rare for Yan Lin to say so much in one breath, as if he was exhausting his ten days’ worth of words. He looked at Wen Zhao with a hint of complexity in his eyes: “Fengming… this Master didn’t go specifically for your divine flame… Are you disappointed?”
“How could I?” Wen Zhao shook his head, “Why would the Shizun think so? If the Shizun really went up there just to get Frost Encrusted Flame, the disciple would feel extremely guilty.”
Yan Lin’s hanging heart suddenly relaxed, and he gently placed his palm on the other person’s head: “That crack can only be repaired by an immortal who has also Harmonious Ascension. In the past three hundred years, no one in the Realms has successfully ascended. If you are the one to ascend first, don’t forget to mend the crack before you leave.”
Wen Zhao inexplicably felt that his words sounded like he was saying his life’s last wish, and he felt a little uncomfortable: “Why? Shouldn’t the next person to ascend be Shizun?”
“This Master…” Yan Lin couldn’t tell the reason after all. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly in a wry smile.
Ascension?
It was impossible.
The peak of Divine Formation may be his limit. His Taoist heart is already on the verge of collapse. When the next heavenly tribulation comes, it may be the time when his body and soul are destroyed.
But that’s fine, if he died, his unspeakable thoughts will never be revealed to his disciple.
He turned his head and looked out the window. Wen Zhao looked at his profile and felt that his expression had a feeling of isolation, but he couldn’t guess the reason for this loneliness.
When this scene was described in the book, he thought it was Yan Lin who was grieving that his beloved disciple had left him, but now that he was standing here, why did Yan Lin still show such an expression?
Maybe he really should read the script his Xiao-Shishu gave him.
He made a random excuse: “Shizun, I’m going to the yard… to refine some elixirs I lack.”
“Good.”
After being tormented by the Tianjian Sect all morning, Wen Zhao finally got freedom. He found a small open space in the White Deer Residence, took some rare divine herbs from his storage ring, put it into the alchemy furnace, and refined into nourishing elixirs for Shizun.
He would not take the elixir given by others, but he would definitely take the elixir made by himself.
Shibo and the others are still staying at White Deer Residence, where Qingwu was trying to abduct Feng Shu: “Shushu shizhi, are you really unwilling to come to the apprenticeship of Shibo? Your Shizun has ice spiritual roots and cannot teach you about them, but at Shibo’s place, there are many immortal books on wood spiritual root. If you become my disciple, I will give them to you.”
Feng Shu shook his head desperately: “No, Shizun said, if I become a disciple under my Xiao Shishu, I will be stained with a strange color within three days.”
Qingwu: “Um…”
Qingzhe glared at his Shidi: “That’s enough of you. Er-di only has two apprentices in total and you still want to poach one of them. There are also quite a few free disciples with wood spiritual root in the sect. You can’t just pick whoever you please.”
Qingwu casually sat on the fence and said, “It is not easy to practice the wood element. It is the least aggressive spiritual root. The Shizhi of mine is young and has only a short amount of time to practice, so I am worried that he will be bullied.”
“Who dares to bully Qingya’s disciples? The grass on the grave of the last one who bullied his disciples is already three feet high.” Qingzhe stood leaning on his sword, “Speaking of which, where is our Guardian Beast? Usually when I come home carrying an evil monster’s head, it will pounce on me and scratch me. Why is there no movement today?”
“Huh? If you didn’t mention it, I would have forgotten about it. We didn’t seem to see it when we came up.”
“I said that monsters are not reliable. If it was willing to come forward to stop those bastards of Tianjian Sect, why would Er-di have to step in?”
Qingwu held his chin and thought for a while: “I suddenly remembered that this year is the 999th year of its thousand-year agreement with Er-ge, right?”
Wen Zhao’s hand that was pounding the medicine stopped – Guardian Beast?
The Guardian Beast of the Fuyun Sect was a great monster that had been around for thousands of years. It was completely black, had sharp horns on its forehead, had two wings on its back, and had a tail longer than its body. Its real body covered the sky and the sun and could crush a person to death with one claw.
It was said that this monster had half the blood of the ancient ferocious beasts. It was unparalleled in ferocity, but it was subdued by the Qingya Xianzun and committed to being a Guardian Beast of the Fuyun Sect.
The big monster didn’t have many scenes in the original book. The only connection between Wen Fengming and it was that he was stopped by the big monster when he was going down the mountain, and he took out its inner core. After absorbing the core and escaping into the Demon Realm, he quickly rose in strength and became feared Mozun who caused trouble in the later period.
Now that he couldn’t escape from the mountain gate, where did the big monster go?
Wen Zhao raised his head and asked, “What is the thousand-year promise…?”
Qingwu flew in front of him lightly and tapped his forehead lovingly: “Feng Shu shizhi said that you lost part of your memory after being demonized. It seems to hold true.”
Wen Zhao didn’t know how to explain, “I’m not amnesiac, I’m just a transmigrator.” He simply said nothing, acknowledging that he really had amnesia.
Qingwu patiently explained: “This monster is the son of the Monster King. Qingya Xianzun grew in fame a thousand years ago. This monster came after hearing the news and wanted to duel with Xianzun to prove that monsters were the strongest in the three realms. In the end, after fighting with the Xianzun for 300 rounds, he unfortunately lost by one move.”
“Before the duel, this monster said, ‘If I lose to you, I will be your watchdog for a thousand years.’ It was originally said casually, but in the end, Xianzun took it seriously and actually signed a contract with it to make it stay. It had been guarding the Fuyun Peak’s gates for a thousand years, and this is the last year.”
This was actually the case.
“I think it’s probably gone,” Qingzhe said. “San-di, please sense if it’s still at Fuyun Peak.”
Qingwu closed his eyes, and Wen Zhao felt the wind around him flow faster. After a while, the other party said, “I can’t sense its breath anymore.”
“Ha, as expected, I said that we should have killed its self-awareness first and then let it become a Guardian Beast later. Er-di had to be soft-hearted and said that he didn’t want to be an enemy of the Monster Realm. And look now, there is still one year left in the contract period, but this beast just ran away with a tail tucked between its legs and showed no loyalty at all.”
“That is the young master of the Monster Realm after all…”
“So what? Those little brats in the Monster Realm, not to mention the young master, even if the Yaowang comes to invade, I will cut off its head with one stroke.”
Qingwu sighed: “Forget it, Da-shixiong, I know you and the Monster Realm are at odds with each other, but three Realms had long been at peace and it is not easy to maintain, so don’t make trouble.”
Qingzhe did not continue to talk about this, but said: “We can’t live without the Guardian Beast protecting the sect. If one escapes, we must find another. If the guardian beast raised in the sect is not good enough, why not go and catch one from the Monster Realm?”
Qingwu was helpless: “You are too rash…”
Wen Zhao listened beside him, feeling a little anxious in his heart.
It was written in the Forgetting the Immortal that to cure Yan Lin’s leg injury, it was necessary to find the seeds of Blossoms of the Azure Tide and the stems of Silver-Stemmed Jade Grass, grow them with the Life-Saving Sweet Dew, put the petals and grass leaves into the alchemy furnace, and then mix them with other immortal herbs to make elixirs that can reshape the meridians and make them intact as before.
Among them, Silver-Stemmed Jade Grass could only be found in the Monster Realm.
He stood up suddenly and wanted to ask his Shibo, “Can you take me with you to the Monster Realm?” But the other party had already entered the room: “Shidi, the Guardian Beast you subdued ran away. I am going to go to the Monster Realm to catch a new one. You help me gather the disciples within the sect, and I’ll order a few to go with me, as a training experience.”
Wen Zhao anxiously stood guard at the door, shouting in his heart, “I can do it, look at me.” But his Shibo was talking to his Shizun, and it was hard for him to go in and disturb him.
Yan Lin put down the tea cup and said slowly: “You just beheaded a nine-headed evil jiao with three thousand years of cultivation in Monster Realm, and you even took its head back as a trophy. Now you want to catch another one. ——Do you think our Fuyun Sect has not made enough enemies in the Monster Realm, or do you think the Immortal Realm and the Monster Realm had been at peace for too long?”
“What you are saying is that they have betrayed their trust first. Why don’t you allow me to seek some compensation?” Qingzhe looked around the other person, her eyes fell on the wheelchair he was sitting on, and without thinking, he rested his hand on the armrest of the wheelchair. After a moment, he said, “This thing is pretty good. Did your disciple make it for you? Fengming is still the best after all, that fool Cheng Yan is not nearly as thoughtful.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden “crack” coming from the armrest he had touched, and a crack appeared in the wood.
Even the strongest wood on the mountain couldn’t resist being patted lightly by Xianzun Qingzhe.
Qingzhe looked embarrassed: “Uh…”
Author has something to say:
Qingwu: Da-shixiong, you are finished.
Bamboo’s note: There are three disciples under the previous Sect Leader (Shizu). Shizun is the middle one.
In the translator’s note ‘strange color’. Some of the story got put in there.
Thanks for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter!
Part of the text seems to be inside the description for strange colour.
Can someone just give me a character detail? Ik wen zhao, yan lin, Cheng Yan and the junior of wen zhao but everyone else is confusing me 💀
Shizu, that guy who somehow kicked the door to the Boundless World open, had 3 disciples who are also Xianzuns. In order of senority:
🐻Qingzhe, 🐺Qingya(shizun(Yan Lin)), 🦊Qingwu.
🐻Qingzhe, the loud, big, fighty one who is also the eldest(Da-Shixiong), teaches Cheng Yan.
🐺Qingya, our shizun and current sect leader, teaches Wen Fengming(Zhao) and Feng Shu. He also has a pure black sword Zhaoying.
🦊Its unknown if Qingwu, the youngest, slender, teen-looking and yellow book peddler guy, has any students.
They all belong to the Fuyun Sect.
Cannon fodder who appeared last chapter: Tianjian Sect, who was previously top dog around here, Sect Leader Yuan Cangping, envious old guy with a beard who got burnt then frozen
Ok I get it now, thank you so much for explaining it!
No problem 😁
Lmao Qingwu basically saying “Nah you radiate bottom energy. No way you can top Qingya” hahahahahaha!
And Cheng Yan! How scandalous! You are truly seeking death hahahahaha! This Shizu of theirs sounds hilarious
💀
Say your prayers Qingwu
lol, Qingzhe sounds like a nice guy so I’ll be lighting a candle for him🕯️
R.I.P. in loving memories of Qiangzhe Xianzun, who died due to cracking Xiao Zhao’s chair (an unforgivable sin!!!) 🪦🕊
Why I have feeling that Shizu was also a transmigrator, haha 😂 And why do they behave as if they were in a conspiracy
Thank You for the chapter ♡╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯♡
