Immortality System: Cultivating with Girls

Chapter 116: The Dismembered Zhang Tiancheng



"Hehe, Junior Sister, you have so much confidence in him?"

Just then, Mu Yunqing also spoke up. He had not left either. He wanted to see if Wang Shouzhen would indeed become a disciple of Liu Qingxuan. In his opinion, there was nothing particularly special about Wang Shouzhen. He didn't understand why Liu Qingdai was so confident.

As he spoke, he glanced into the distance, where the figures of Wen Zhixing and Liu Qingxuan were obscured by a light screen. The figures were hazy and indistinct.

"I'm definitely confident in Junior Brother Wang." Liu Qingdai turned her head, hands on her hips, and looked at Mu Yunqing. "Mu, your judgment isn't that great."

"Oh, is that so?" Mu Yunqing's eyes narrowed with interest. "Junior Sister, how did you and Wang Shouzhen get to know each other that you trust him so much?"

His heart stirred. Perhaps Liu Qingdai knew something.

"Oh, we met at..."

Liu Qingdai was about to describe the scene of her meeting with Wen Zhixing, but she reconsidered. She remembered Wen Zhixing telling her that someone in the Righteous Sun Sect wanted to kill him.

Immediately, her tone instinctively changed. She lifted her brows and said, "I naturally met Junior Brother Wang in the sect. I observed his extraordinary bones—a promising talent! Perhaps even stronger than you, Senior Brother!"

"Oh, then I'm really looking forward to it." Mu Yunqing smiled faintly, seemingly not taking it seriously, as if he had just heard a joke.

But a significant wariness surged in his heart.

No, Liu Qingdai just lied.

Mu Yunqing immediately sensed something was off. Wang Shouzhen had just registered as a disciple of the Righteous Sun Sect, an event he had witnessed with his own eyes; Wang Shouzhen had joined the sect only a few days ago. Meanwhile, Liu Qingdai had just returned to the sect and was immediately put into confinement. The two had no chance to meet at all.

That is to say... they met outside the sect... It must have been that day when she was taken to the Wonderous Palace!

Mu Yunqing's thoughts raced, and he quickly guessed most of the situation.

Could this person be a furnace from the Wonderous Palace? Another thought flashed through Mu Yunqing's mind. There were indeed many good talents in the Wonderous Palace, and some people must have escaped that day. Later, he would ask Zhang Tiancheng if there was a furnace named Wang Shouzhen in the Wonderous Palace. So many days had passed, and Zhang Tiancheng was nearly refined by him. Although he still retained his previous memories, he had become a puppet entirely at his command.

BUZZ!

At that moment, the light screen that enveloped Wen Zhixing and Liu Qingxuan dissipated. Their figures were revealed.

Before Mu Yunqing and the others could react, Liu Qingxuan's somewhat joyful voice had already entered their minds. "Spread the word: from now on, Wang Shouzhen will be my direct disciple."

"Hahaha." Liu Qingdai put her hands on her hips and laughed loudly. Pointing her delicate finger at Bai Luqiu and Mu Yunqing, she declared, "See that? See that? This is the vision of a true sword immortal—keen and perceptive!"

Mu Yunqing's body stiffened instantly. Then he clenched his hands tightly, his perception extremely sharp. There was a genuine joy in Liu Qingxuan's voice transmission. When he himself was taken as a disciple back in the day, he didn't recall Liu Qingxuan being this happy.

"Eh?" Bai Luqiu also showed a look of surprise. Did he really misjudge? This was indeed unexpected.

"Master, then I will take my leave first. I need to be in closed-door cultivation for some time," Wen Zhixing proposed to leave directly.

Now that he had the Nine-Turns Sun Sutra and the Nine Heavens Thunder Seed, he estimated he would need to be in seclusion for quite some time to fully master them. This time, he was truly going to transform. His Sea of Sense was turning into a thunder pool, his divine soul was no longer ordinary, and his Spiritual Qi was transforming into the Sun's essence.

I'm almost invincible... Wen Zhixing could not help but feel joy in his heart. His body was already at its peak, and now his Spiritual Qi and Sea of Sense were about to transform. If this wasn't invincibility, what was?

"Go. In a few days, your Master will arrange a better cave dwelling for you," Liu Qingxuan nodded and then called Bai Luqiu to escort Wen Zhixing back.

Liu Qingdai was about to follow, but Liu Qingxuan grabbed her. "You don't need to go. Your Junior Brother Wang is about to enter closed-door cultivation; don't disturb him."

"Closed-door cultivation?" Liu Qingdai, left behind, was stunned.

"Master, this disciple takes his leave!"

In that moment of distraction, Bai Luqiu spurred the seven-colored auspicious cloud and swiftly carried Wen Zhixing away.

Seeing this, Liu Qingdai could only stay put, feeling helpless.

Mu Yunqing frowned secretly. Why the rush to enter closed-door cultivation? Could it be that Liu Qingxuan has imparted something to Wang Shouzhen? It shouldn't be that cultivation skill. Wang Shouzhen doesn't have a Pure Yang Body; there's no way Liu Qingxuan would pass on the cultivation skill to him. Put your mind at ease.

Mu Yunqing didn't reveal his inner thoughts but instead offered congratulations joyfully. "Congratulations, Master."

"Yun Qing, your Junior Brother Wang has just joined. You should give him more help in the future," Liu Qingxuan said, clearly in a good mood.

"Of course," Mu Yunqing nodded with a smile.

"Right, find a suitable cave dwelling for your Junior Brother Wang, and let him move in in a few days. Go on."

"Yes." Mu Yunqing bowed his head respectfully and withdrew. Throughout it all, he did not show any sign of peculiarity.

"Dad, how was it? Did I do a great job this time!" Once Mu Yunqing left, Liu Qingdai immediately straightened up, her cute little nose tilting high with pride. Come on, praise me! Liu Qingxuan must have recognized Wen Zhixing's true identity to accept him as a disciple.

"Indeed, you have done a great job." Liu Qingxuan reached out and pinched Liu Qingdai's upturned nose, a look of indulgence appearing on his face. Looks like she's not a complete disappointment after all; quite the opposite, she's turned out to be a real gem.

"My reward, give it to me." Liu Qingdai pushed away Liu Qingxuan's hand and demanded with her hands on her hips.

Under normal circumstances, Liu Qingxuan would naturally refuse. This time, however, he pondered seriously for a moment before smiling and saying, "This is what we'll do: the time for the inner sect disciples to go out for experience is approaching, and Yun Qing will be leading the team. You can go with them."

"Really?" Liu Qingdai was overjoyed.

"Really. Would your dad lie to you?"

"Then what about Wen... Wang Shouzhen? Will he go too?"

"He can."

"Love you!" Liu Qingdai put her fingers to her lips, blowing a kiss. Immediately after, she ran off in a flash.

This child. Liu Qingxuan shook his head, then hummed a little tune and slowly vanished on the spot.

...

After leaving, Mu Yunqing did not go to arrange the cave dwelling. Instead, he returned to his own.

His expression was somber. The sudden emergence of Wang Shouzhen had unsettled him. Something didn't feel right.

As soon as he entered his cave dwelling, Mu Yunqing activated an enchantment and called to the figure within, "Zhang Tiancheng."

Ahead, under the dim lamplight, a headless corpse stirred slightly. Its hands groped around. It lifted the head that was placed beside it and carefully positioned it back on.

"Lord, I am here," Zhang Tiancheng slowly opened his eyes and said.
