Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

The officers gladly accepted the advice of the two experts and expressed their determination to follow the experts closely, hoping to catch up with them soon to thank them in person.

The two experts were not just talkers; they proved the feasibility of their health theory by running themselves.

The officers were deeply moved and began to exercise by running, which lasted the whole morning.

Feeling that the advice of the experts was spot-on, they freely promoted the reputation of the two experts, and soon, the entire town heard the officers shouting.

“Stand still if you dare!”

“You two scoundrels, I promise not to kill you!”

“What are you taking the meat buns for if you’re not eating them!”

The officers were furious, chasing after Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou relentlessly.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou dared not let the officers catch up, so they ran off, leaving the officers to eat their dust.

As they ran, Lu Yang said, “The rules really didn’t lie, look how dangerous these officers are, chasing after us for no reason, we can’t let them catch us.”

Meng Jingzhou agreed, “Exactly, luckily we are at the Foundation Building stage, if it were someone else, they would have been caught long ago.”

The officers tried to take a detour to block them, but the two were already familiar with the town’s map and couldn’t be stopped.

The two led the officers on a chase from morning until nightfall, and by the end, the officers were clearly unable to run anymore, each of them gasping for breath and staggering.

By the time of the Hai hour, the two returned to the inn with the meat buns, as the officers glared at them fiercely, unwillingly returning to the government office.

According to the 【Commoner Town Enforcers’ Rule】they must stay at the government office from the Hai hour to the Chen hour.

The two felt a bit regretful; they had made a lot of preparations in the inn, thinking it would be a surprise for the officers if they could enter the inn.

Unfortunately, it was not to be.

On the fifth day at the time of Si, the usually lazy officers arrived at the diner on time.

In the past, they would be a quarter of an hour late, appearing suddenly when the place was crowded to scare people, and if lucky, they could even break necks.

This time, in order to eat meat buns, they changed their habit.

After running all day yesterday without getting any meat buns, they were starving. They came early this time, before those two miscreants could tamper with anything, to eat their fill.

Halfway through their meal, they saw Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou slowly coming out of the inn.

“Dare to show up in front of us!” The officers, remembering what happened yesterday, were furious and determined to catch the two.

Lu Yang, unhurried, said, “I advise you not to chase me, or terrible things will happen.”

“Who are you trying to scare!” The head officer obviously didn’t believe Lu Yang, thinking it was a bluff.

There are only twenty-one rules in Commoner Town; the situation Lu Yang mentioned could not happen.

“Charge!”

Seeing them ignore the warning, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou sighed, turned around, and ran.

The officers hadn’t run far when someone began to roll on the ground, clutching their stomach, sweating from the forehead in pain: “My abdomen hurts so much!”

Like a chain reaction, one after another began to scream in pain, even the head officer couldn’t bear it, curled up on the ground to lessen the pain, unable to stand up.

“The meat buns are poisoned…” The head officer glared at Lu Yang, convinced that they had been poisoned by them.

Lu Yang sauntered over: “I told you not to chase us, but you wouldn’t listen, and now you’re suffering, aren’t you?”

“Where did you get the poison!” The head officer couldn’t understand, as it was impossible for the pharmacy owner to provide Lu Yang with poison. Where did Lu Yang get the poison?

Lu Yang squatted down, patted the head officer on the head, and said affectionately, “Remember, you shouldn’t exercise vigorously after eating, or you might get appendicitis.”

“Read more books, and don’t think everything is poison. We are from a reputable sect, how could we poison you?”

As one of the five major immortal sects, Dao Seeking Sect conducts itself with integrity and would never stoop to poisoning, an act considered beneath them.

At least, no living enemy has ever encountered Dao Seeking Sect using poison.

The officers were in agony with abdominal pain, rolling on the ground. Those who weren’t affected stood fearfully, not daring to act. In this way, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou confidently disappeared from the officers’ sight.

What the two didn’t notice was the gaze of the Commoner Town citizens on the roadside, filled with horror.

“Thank goodness these two are abiding by the regular rules. If they were wearing black and became officers, would we still have a way to live?”

“Indeed, they claim to be from a reputable sect, but who knows? They might be undercover agents from a demonic cult infiltrated into the righteous path!”

The citizens of Commoner Town were relieved that Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were on their side, otherwise, they feared they wouldn’t survive three days.

On the sixth day at the time of Si, the officers got smarter. They grabbed the meat buns without eating them and blocked the entrance to the inn.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had anticipated this and escaped by jumping out of the second-floor window.

“Chase them, don’t let them get away!” Two days of accumulated resentment reached a terrifying level. Remembering the pain from the day before, the officers wished they could tear them to pieces.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou became even more adept at running, unbeknownst to the officers, who ended up chasing them right into the territory of the private school.

The private school teacher, grinding his teeth at the sight of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, called over the people who were “reading” in the school.

Those “reading” in the school couldn’t really be called human anymore; their bodies were covered with black fur, and their mouths were elongated, with some so severe they were almost on all fours, barely a step away from becoming black dogs.

“Catch them!” ordered the private school teacher.

The officers, seeing this, were also enraged. How dare they try to steal their targets!

The private school teacher tried to make eye contact with Lu Yang, but Lu Yang was prepared and pulled out a bronze mirror, holding it in front of his face.

“Better take a look at your own ugly face!”

In the mirror, the private school teacher saw his own skinless face and blood-red eyes, let out a wail, and underwent a transformation, quickly returning to the academy to sew his mouth shut.

Without the private school teacher’s command, the black dog-people followed their previous orders and clashed with the officers.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou took advantage of the chaos to grab an officer, attempting to strip off his clothes, but found they couldn’t do so no matter what.

They had to settle for searching the officer and found the 【Commoner Town Enforcers’ Rule】.

Just like the inn’s waitstaff, to avoid forgetting the rules, the officers always carried them.

Having obtained what they wanted, the two made their escape.

As for the officers, the two decided to respect their wishes—if they wanted to fight, let them fight.
