Chapter 305: Lodging at Honesty Sect

“That’s a middle-level immortal cultivator sect in the Upper Azure World,” Lonemoon explained casually, “When I first got back, I already went to get their information. Most of Honesty Sect practices the cultivation of swords, and as he needs to start practicing as soon as possible, that’s a good fit for Che- Yi Qing. So I’ve already went there and signed up with them with the names of both of us.”
“Oh.” Which was to say that, he went out and found them a free cafeteria. Father Niu was the caretaker indeed.
(⊙ o ⊙)
“Before Yi Qing has achieved a certain level in his practice, we will stay there.” Lonemoon looked down at Chef. The demon attack at the village gave him a reminder, that it was indeed too dangerous for him right now as he had no ability to defend at all. He was not sure when his body would recover to the point fit to receive the assistant seal, but apparently, the higher his cultivation, the better it is for him. Thus, before he becomes a real assistant, he must have his cultivation improved as soon as possible. As he thought about this, the fan underneath his feet flew even faster, and he didn’t stop until more than ten minutes later.
“We’re here!” He pointed at a series of mountain tops in front of him, looking abundant of Spirit Qi. He made a hand seal for himself and the faint whiteness around his body disappeared, suppressing his cultivation directly to the level of Soul Formation. He turned to look at Shen Ying beside him, the corner of his mouth moved, and he said, “That won’t be necessary for you.” People won’t see the difference even if she disguises herself as a Soul Formation.
“Huh?” Shen Ying was confused.
He had already brought them and flown inside.
——————
Lou Hong thought that he might have been very lucky recently. As the sect master of Honesty Sect, he had tried to every method to make Honesty Sect flourish over hundreds of years. However, as his sect had always focused on sword cultivation, which had always been more difficult than other cultivators, there were very few disciples who had considerable achievement. Even those whose cultivation reached the level of Nascent Soul numbered less than five.
Sword cultivation required simplicity of heart, and the sect had always been harmonious and largely free from internal conflicts. The disciples were rather hardworking in their cultivation too. However, as they were in the Upper Azure World, they paled in comparison to the other sects around them. Although it was possible to challenge someone at a higher level in sword cultivation, the larger numbers in other sects gave them superiority. Besides, all the other sects had Soul Formation cultivators.
Not considering the top sects, even the ordinary sects who are similar in strength to them generally have one or two Soul Formation cultivators. Only Honesty Sect... Its foundation was shallow in the first place, and besides the original Master who achieved Immortal Ascension, there were no more Soul Formation cultivators. Especially after an elder was defeated by a Soul Formation cultivator and died, things became even more difficult for their sect.
He could even imagine that Honesty Sect would drop from mid-tier sect to lower-tier sect after the next sect tournament. Every time he thought about this, he became immensely anxious, and even his cultivation seemed to be blocked by it, without any further improvement.
Yet perhaps due to the original Master’s blessing, just as he was about to accept his fate, he was hit by a sudden fortune. A Soul Formation cultivator called Lonemoon suddenly came to the sect and asked to join Honesty Sect.
He thought that he was dreaming – that was the Soul Formation cultivator that his sect had tried and failed to get over hundreds of years, and so easily one came to his doorstep? Besides, he was a sword cultivator. For Soul Formation sword cultivators, they can be defeated by none at the same level, and have a chance even with those of a higher level. That meant that he wouldn’t have any opponent throughout the Three Azure Realms. And a cultivator so strong actually hopes to join this sect which is almost falling into the lower-tier!
Lou Hong thought he must be dreaming, exactly! Yet as he asked about it again, the person didn’t look like he regretted it at all. He even left his divine perception on his own accord, sealed it into the name card of the sect, and gave it to him.
It was only now that Lou Hong could confirm that he was not joking. He was immediately overjoyed, and in an excited mood, he asked carefully if he had any other requirement for the sect. His mind was full of determination to make him stay, at any cost.
Yet he only thought about it for a moment and said that he might bring a friend here to join together on the morrow.
That’s it?
“May I know what is the cultivation of Supremacy’s friend?” He asked subconsciously.
The man’s face seemed to move slightly in convulsion, and after a long while he said, “You can take it as... Soul Formation!” With that said, he expressed that he was going to fetch the person first, and left Honesty Sect.
Soul Formation! Another Soul Formation cultivator!
Lou Hong couldn’t believe his eyes. He couldn’t imagine that within an instant, his sect, which was just becoming an insignificant lower-tier sect, was welcoming two Soul Formation cultivators, and they actually sent themselves to their doorsteps.
He was too excited to stay calm for meditation and gathered the Elders over the night to inform them of this pie that dropped from the sky. The whole sect reacted just like him – so excited that they wanted to go to the other sects and do a bit of bragging. Over night, they gathered all the disciples in front of the audience hall, and waited for them to return with bright eyes. They were to express, with their actual behavior, their welcome of the pies... uh no, the Soul Formation cultivators.
Yet they ended up waiting through the whole night, without the excitement in the heart dying down. It wasn’t until the sun was well up in the sky, when they saw the coming of two pies... Uh, no, Soul Formation cultivators.
Therefore, when Lonemoon came with Shen Ying, they saw Lou Hong and thousands of disciples in front of the audience hall, with hungry looks in their eyes as all of them stared at them.
Even as one who had been in two planes, Lonemoon was shocked.
What was it with these guys?
o(╯□╰)o
“Lou Hong, along with Honesty Sect disciples, welcome the return of Supremacy.” Lou Hong walked up, and with reverence, saluted him with cupped fists.
And the masses behind him saluted together. “Welcome Supremacy!”
How loud was the voice! How strong was the momentum!
And the three who had just touched the ground got completely confused.
Shen Ying couldn’t help but poked Father Niu with her elbow. “All these are mass actors that you hired?”
“Bah!” Lonemoon rolled his eyes at her. “I only registered my name. I have no idea why this happened.” This was a bit too warm of a welcome.
His face darkened slightly, and he had to walk up to steady the person in front. “Sect Master Lou, such courtesy is not necessary.”
“It is, it is!” Lou Hong smiled even wider, and the side of his mouth almost reached his ears. He was genuinely happy: Who dares belittle Honesty Sect for not producing Soul Formation cultivators any more? They didn’t need producing, they only needed to collect.
“It is lucky for our sect that Supremacy joins us. This is why we take this opportunity to let our disciples admire the elegance of Supremacy.” As he said that, he went sideways and welcomed the three inside. “Please come with me!”
The three followed into the audience hall. Outside, the thousands of disciples had already dispersed, and they could only feel several curious looks to their side from time to time. Inside the audience hall, only Lou Hong and another Nascent Soul cultivator remained.
Lonemoon started with some routine mutual flattering with the sect master, and after a while, he looked at the two and said, “Oh yeah, we have just come and are not familiar with the sect. May I know if the Soul Formation cultivator of the sect is in now?” In any case, they had to stay here for a long time, and it was necessary to greet the head of the place.
