Surviving in Commoner Town is already a difficult feat, let alone leaving.

How did these two manage it?

Daoist Non-Speaker didn’t ponder further. Seizing the moment when the four Unity Stage beings were weakened from vomiting blood and their attention shifted to Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, he suddenly exerted his power.

Surrounded by azure sword qi, light and flowing like a pool of clear water, his sword qi moved as agilely as a snake, tracing a beautiful curve in the air. Two heads flew horizontally.

Everlasting Fairy remarked, “Your master is truly capable, enough to compete with the top sword cultivators of our era. This sword strike has severed both the physical bodies and the souls, completely killing two Unity Stage beings.”

Lu Yang was amazed. To take on four opponents alone and kill two unexpectedly, the master is indeed worthy of respect.

Both Everlasting Fairy and Daoist Non-Speaker’s initial appearances were rather poor, one being suppressed and the other locked in a cave for ten years, leading Lu Yang to subconsciously overlook their status.

One is an ancient immortal, one of the five who became immortals during the chaotic ancient times, among the strongest five.

The other is the sect leader of one of the five great immortal sects, who would be received with the highest courtesy by the emperor himself, the youngest and the latest to cultivate among the Dao Seeking Sect’s Nine, yet with the highest combat strength.

Ordinary cultivators gaining even a slight connection with either would rise to great heights, enjoying a worry-free life. Yet, Lu Yang didn’t feel this way at all.

“Is it really because Eldest Senior Sister is around?” Lu Yang felt he had pinpointed the reason.

Their initial debuts went poorly because of Eldest Senior Sister.

Now that Eldest Senior Sister was not around, they finally had a chance to show their true capabilities.

Daoist Non-Speaker, brimming with energy, seemed poised to launch another strike.

The remaining two, sensing danger and not bothering to carry their comrades’ corpses, turned to flee.

Daoist Non-Speaker did not pursue further. While he could indeed launch another strike, the two had their guards up and might withstand it. If they did, and then counterattacked, he himself wasn’t afraid of another fight, but Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou couldn’t withstand the aftermath of Unity Stage beings clashing.

“Are you two alright?” Daoist Non-Speaker hurried down to check on them and found that they were uninjured, seemingly having a good time in Commoner Town the past few days.

“We’re fine.” Both waved their hands, feeling the aura around them, and couldn’t help but sigh. Successfully leaving Commoner Town and being able to manipulate spiritual power again felt great.

In Commoner Town, where they couldn’t use spells, their talents were somewhat restrained.

“That’s good, that’s good.” Daoist Non-Speaker breathed a sigh of relief, “It’s just that those two got away.”

“Speaking of which, wasn’t there a Unity Stage in Commoner Town? How did you deal with him?” Daoist Non-Speaker looked at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou curiously, thinking perhaps Little Yun gave Lu Yang a life-saving method, or the Meng family provided Meng Jingzhou with one.

Trusting Daoist Non-Speaker, Lu Yang explained, “Actually, I have an ancient immortal sealed within me. Usually, it guides my cultivation, and in critical moments, it can lend me power, making killing a Unity Stage not out of the question.”

Daoist Non-Speaker looked at Lu Yang with a sympathetic gaze, patting his head, then considering his age, he understood.

Right, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid is still in the phase of fantasy.

When he was sixteen, he too fantasized about having an ancient fierce beast sealed within him, which would loosen its seal if others angered him, leaking out the beast’s energy and inadvertently harming innocents. In severe cases, it could lead to catastrophic destruction, so to keep the fierce beast sealed, he had to maintain a cold demeanor at all times.

Who hasn’t gone through that phase?

An ancient immortal? In his two thousand years of life, Daoist Non-Speaker had never encountered an ancient immortal. And now, Lu Yang, this kid, was not only lucky enough to meet an ancient immortal, but this immortal was also residing within him?

It must be a life-saving measure left for Lu Yang by Little Yun.

“Is the ancient immortal you mentioned an old man or a beauty?” Daoist Non-Speaker asked.

Thinking of Everlasting Fairy’s appearance, who indeed was as stunning as Eldest Senior Sister when she was calm, Lu Yang said, “A beauty.”

Daoist Non-Speaker thought to himself that it made sense. At this age, the immortals one fantasizes about are either old men or beauties, definitely not young men, middle-aged men, or old women. (TL Note: It’s a common trope in cultivation novels for a strong and knowledgeable old grandpa carried around with the main character who guides him throughout his cultivation)

He looked at Commoner Town, still enveloped by its rules, paused for a moment, and then said, “Let’s go to the nearby government office first and hand over the follow-up matters to them.”

There were too many civilians in Commoner Town. Although he was supremely skilled in cultivation, when it came to situations that couldn’t be resolved by cultivation alone, it was best to leave them to the professionals.

The matter of Commoner Town involved five ancient Unity Stage beings, which was beyond the jurisdiction of a county governor. Thus, Daoist Non-Speaker needed to find the regional inspector responsible for this state.

The Great Xia Dynasty had divided the central continent into seventeen regions, also known as the seventeen states. Below the states were counties, and below the counties were towns.

Knowing he was unfamiliar with the area, Daoist Non-Speaker went to the nearby county to inquire about their location and learned that they were in Qingzhou, part of the central continent’s western region.

“Wait, why are we in the western part of the continent?” Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou looked at Daoist Non-Speaker suspiciously. Didn’t they say they were flying south when they left the Dao Seeking Sect?

Daoist Non-Speaker laughed it off without explaining too much, just telling the two to follow him.

After asking around and locating their position, the trio finally found the inspector of Qingzhou.

Upon hearing that the sect master of Dao Seeking Sect had come to visit, the inspector of Qingzhou immediately dropped all his duties to personally welcome Daoist Non-Speaker.

As the inspector of Qingzhou, controlling countless resources of the state and revered and flattered by many, he was still far inferior to Daoist Non-Speaker in terms of status and cultivation.

Daoist Non-Speaker got straight to the point, explaining the situation in Commoner Town. When it came to specific details, he let Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou fill in.

Upon hearing what had happened in Commoner Town, the inspector of Qingzhou broke into a cold sweat. Thankfully, the sect master of Dao Seeking Sect had discovered and handled the situation promptly. Had those five ancient Unity Stage beings fully awakened and hidden somewhere in the dynasty, they could have destroyed several counties at any moment, killing countless people.

The inspector of Qingzhou immediately decided to mobilize local Spirit Transformation Stage and Unity Stage enforcers, write to the stationed troops in Qingzhou and the imperial court, informing them that two ancient Unity Stage beings had awakened and escaped, and to remain vigilant.

As for reporting to the imperial court to commend Dao Seeking Sect, he couldn’t spare the time just yet. He decided to address the civilians’ situation in Commoner Town first.

Lu Yang noticed that the inspector of Qingzhou didn’t mobilize any Void Refinement Stage cultivators.

Daoist Non-Speaker explained, “The Void Refinement Stage is a very special phase. Cultivators in this stage have very unstable strengths, fluctuating between high and low. At their peak, they can reach the pinnacle of the Unity Stage, but at their lowest, they’re only as strong as the Qi Cultivation Stage. Thus, Void Refinement Stage cultivators choose to stay in one place, seldom taking action.”

“And no one would easily provoke a Void Refinement Stage cultivator, after all, you never know what realm the opponent might reach in the next moment.”
