Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 506: Chapter 4 Heavenly Street_3

“So it’s Senior Brother Qi, back from Yan?”

The cultivator with gray hair was indeed Qi Yan.

Noticing Tang Ji’s less-than-warm demeanor, Qi Yan’s eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

Just as he was about to say something, Yao Wudi, who was standing next to him, heartily laughed and commented:

“Why if it isn’t Junior Brother Qi, we owe you a thank you this time!”

“Huh?”

Qi Yan was taken aback.

Quite perplexed.

Thank me?

What did he do?

Qi Yan quickly pondered, but he couldn’t make heads or tails of it.

However, unlike Tang Ji, he dared not harbor arrogance towards Senior Brother Yao who was highly revered. He quickly made a modest salute to Yao Wudi and probing, said:

“Aren’t you typically cultivating in Chen State or Wanfa Peak? Why would you come here today?”

Yao Wudi gestured with his mouth towards Wang Ba and replied cheerfully:

“Well, I picked up an acolyte during my travels, so I just so happened to return to the sect!”

Understanding dawned on Qi Yan.

He glanced at Wang Ba stood behind Yao Wudi. Detecting an unusual nuance in his aura, Qi Yan raised an eyebrow slightly:

“Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment?”

Wang Ba quickly bowed in respect.

Yao Wudi showed an embarrassed smile, but the grin at the corner of his mouth revealed his pride:

“Hehe, it’s pretty ordinary, pretty ordinary.”

Hearing this, Qi Yan made polite expressions of congratulations and with a smile said:

“If Senior Brother Yao and Junior Brother Tang are busy, please proceed. I noticed some suitable spirit materials just now…”

Tang Ji was looking for an excuse to leave.

After being rejected by Qi Yan twice in a row, his mood was understandably strained. He quickly grabbed Yao Wudi, who was still boasting, and continued to venture deep into the Heavenly Street.

Out of courtesy, Wang Ba saluted Qi Yan before quickly following behind.

Seeing the figures of Yao Wudi, Tang Ji, and others disappearing from his sight, the smile on Qi Yan’s face gradually disappeared, and he coldly snorted:

“What a relic, just picked up a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, a slightly talented cultivator, but showed off in front of me…”

He immediately turned his head to the rear.

A young cultivator who still retained a few traces of youth stood behind him, already faintly reaching the Perfect Foundation Establishment and exuding the unique aura of the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

But what Qi Yan appreciated was not just his foundation, but more importantly, his talent in Beast Control.

The young Cultivator had an extreme sensitivity to the bloodlines of Spirit Beasts and could quickly distinguish the proportion of bloodline a Spirit Beast held.

This simply was top-tier talent in the realm of Beast Control!

With this talent, the cultivator had already successfully nurtured a Class III Spirit Beast.

He displayed a slight smile:

“Mo Qi, are you confident about this assessment?”

The young cultivator, Mo Qi, immediately responded with a respectful yet confident tone: “To Master, there should not be any accidents.”

“Hmm, you have a strong Dao-heart, otherwise you wouldn’t be where you are today just by relying on yourself, but for the Entrance Assessment, do not underestimate it. The better you perform, the more the sect will favor you.”

Qi Yan gave his newly-recruited disciple earnest advice.

“Yes! I will not disappoint Master.”

Mo Qi said.

…

“The kid Qi Yan walks with, he’s got Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment too.”

Walking through the crowd, Yao Wudi suddenly said to Wang Ba.

Wang Ba didn’t feel much about this revelation,

“Master, is there something I should pay attention to?”

Yao Wudi shook his head. It was just a casual remark really.

After getting to know Wang Ba for a year, he was more confident about Wang Ba attending the Sect Entrance Assessment than Wang Ba himself.

They walked a little further.

Wang Ba and Yao Wudi, following Tang Ji, ran into another group of people.

Among them, two Nascent Soul stage Cultivators.

One of them, spotting Tang Ji, immediately brightened up:

“Junior Brother Tang…Senior Brother Yao?! Why are you here too?!”

The sight of Yao Wudi caused a sudden change in the Nascent Soul cultivator’s expression.

There seemed to be a hint of fear and resentment.

In contrast, Yao Wudi looked at him and casually grinned:

“Ah, Little Ma, just returned from Yu State…”

“Senior Brother Ma.”

Seeing the cultivator’s expression change, Tang Ji quickly interrupted Yao Wudi and stepped forward to greet him with a slight bow.

Only then did ‘Senior Brother Ma’ face soften a bit at the sight of Tang Ji.

“Junior Brother Tang, are you also bringing someone to participate in the examination?”

“Yes, otherwise travelling back and forth would be too time-consuming.”

Tang Ji laughed, then immediately turned to the unfamiliar Nascent Soul cultivator standing behind ‘Senior Brother Ma’.

With a puzzled expression, he asked, “Who might this be…”

“Oh, let me introduce, this is a Daoist friend I found in Yu State who cultivates the ‘Dao of Skin and Hair’. I specifically introduced him to our sect to participate in the examination.”

“Oh?”

Tang Ji was clearly taken aback.

It was common for Foundation Establishment cultivators and Golden Core Craftsmen to be introduced to the sect, but it was indeed unusual for Nascent Soul cultivators.

Wang Ba followed everyone’s gaze.

He saw a bald cultivator in a loose robe standing behind Senior Uncle Ma.

What surprised Wang Ba was that this cultivator had a beautiful face, and was actually a female cultivator.

However, not only was she bald, but she also had no eyebrows.

Quite bizarre.

“The Dao of Skin and Hair… I haven’t heard of that before.”

Tang Ji remarked with a look of surprise.

However, it seemed that Senior Uncle Ma did not like Yao Wudi. After a brief conversation, he and the cultivators behind him left swiftly.

Watching the retreating figures of Senior Uncle Ma and the others…

“By the way… after joining the sect, it’s better to keep a low profile.”

As if something had occurred to him, Yao Wudi couldn’t help but advise.

“Keep a low profile?”

Wang Ba was confused.

With his character, it was hard for him to draw attention.

But why would Yao Wudi say this?

Considering Senior Uncle Ma’s attitude towards his master just now…

Somehow, Wang Ba’s heart was filled with a sense of foreboding.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

“Ah… When I was successful in my cultivation, I…played and had some interactions with some of my junior brothers. The, uh…strength I used while playing might have been a bit…excessive. Just… just try to keep a low profile.”

Yao Wudi scratched his head in consternation.

Wang Ba’s heart immediately sank.

He quickly asked, “Master, which uncles did you confront back then…”

This… this is quite a long list. Luo Yuzhong, Tang Yun, Song Dongyang…”

As Yao Wudi walked, he started counting on his fingers.

However, he quickly ran out of fingers. He started counting again, yet still showed no sign of stopping…

Although Wang Ba didn’t know who these people were, hearing over twenty different names without any repetition, and with the list still growing, made his scalp tingle.

The ones Master remembers, even if they’re not at the Nascent Soul stage now, they’re certainly Golden Core cultivators… with so many enemies, how could he survive in the Wanxiang Sect?

“Ahem… don’t worry too much. It was just a small misunderstanding. They won’t take it out on a junior like you.”

Yao Wudi responded with a guilty cough.

Wang Ba: “Heh heh…”

Seeing that Wang Ba still seemed doubtful, Yao Wudi immediately reassured him:

“Don’t worry! As long as I’m here, no one will dare do anything to you!”

“Furthermore, with the Sect Master and Elders here, no one will dare to break the rules and lay a hand on you. You can rest assured.”

With mixed feelings, Wang Ba walks with Yao Wudi into the Teleportation Array at the end of the Heavenly Street and then vanishes.

When Wang Ba opens his eyes again…

He heard a hearty laughter:

“Vice Palace Master of Benevolence Hall, Luo Yuzhong, welcomes everyone to participate in the entrance examination.”

Upon hearing this name, Wang Ba first feels like he has heard it before.

Then, he quickly recalls the name.

His body freezes instantly.
