Chapter 466 Humanity is So Small
Orcas are Creatures that migrate in Groups and like to live in Groups. Small Clans have 2-3, and large Clans can have hundreds.
Each Clan's leader is not determined by Ability, but by the oldest female Whale, making it a standard matriarchal Group.
Members are Orcas that are closely related by Blood. They Life together, hunt together, Travel together, share Food together, and gather together in Cold Places, sleeping in a Hoop.
After Small Orcas are born, there are also specialized Orcas that teach them to hunt and raise offspring. Males are only responsible for going out to hunt. In the Group, 'father-son' and 'father-daughter' Relationships are rarely found, while 'mother-son' and 'mother-daughter' Relationships are more stable.
In addition, each Clan has its own 'Dialect', which is slightly different from other Clans. When they encounter other Clans during Travel, they will also stop to chat for a Sentence or two, talk about hunting experiences, and if Conflicts arise, they will fight and curse at the same time...
They also have special vocabulary for cursing and mocking. It's not impossible for them to swear.
Group Life, matriarchal society, respect for elders, Language and Civilization... In addition, males have a Lifespan of 50-65 years, and females can live for 80-100 years. If they continue to reproduce and evolve, they might really become a new Civilization on Earth.
But it's just a 'maybe'. Orcas are very intelligent, but they are still not comparable to Humanity. Some Say So that Orca Brains are several times heavier than Human Brains, but Intelligence is not calculated like that.
Humanity originally came from the most intelligent primates. Becoming intelligent Life also experienced countless coincidental miracles in History of evolution. In Disasters, high-Intelligence individuals were gradually selected for reproduction, giving birth to Civilization, and after countless years of Accumulation, the current Civilization was formed.
In comparison, Humanity's Intelligence has already surpassed Orcas by a lot, and Civilization is even ahead by many times...
Chi Feichei silently withdrew his thoughts.
No, now is not the Time to talk about science. Right in front of him is an unscientific Orca that can learn the Language of other Species.
While Chi Feichei was distracted for a moment, the Orca was also in Silence for a while, and said gloomily, "My Clan... they don't want me anymore. They stopped wanting me a long Time ago."
Chi Feichei was stunned and frowned, "Why?"
"Because I'm different from them..."
The Orca couldn't help but Look at Hissashi. This Snake stabbed its heart several times.
It also Looked at Chi Feichei. This Human mentioned its Clan. Thinking about the Clan, it felt even more heartbroken.
This Human and Snake almost sent it away with Language.
"When I was a Child, I was different from other Whales. I was smaller in Body Shape and grew very slowly. At three years old, I was still Small Loach. By the Time I was nine, a Younger Sister who was three years younger than me was already bigger than me..."
As the Orca Said, it Turn Head and plunged into the Sea with a splash.
Chi Feichei Walked To the Railing and looked down at the Orca in the Sea.
The Orca swam in one Direction for a while, then Turn Head and swam to the Deck, "Am I very Small Loach?"
Chi Feichei visually measured the Body Shape of this Orca. It was just over 4 meters long, definitely less than 5 meters.
Although in terms of Body Shape, it was much stronger than him and Hissashi, the average Body Shape of female Orcas is 7 meters, and the longest reaches 8.5 meters. Compared to that, it is quite Small Loach.
"How old are you?"
"17 years old." The Orca put its Head on the Deck again, causing the Yacht to shake.
Chi Feichei squatted down to steady himself, and by the way, Grabbed Hissashi, who was sliding towards the edge of the Deck, and placed it on his Hand.
"Huff..." Hissashi Speechless, "Thank You, Master."
The Orca put its Head on the Deck, and its Voice became more coquettish, "I also want a good-looking Human to hug me..."
Now that Words have been Said to this point, could he not hug it?
Chi Feichei Walked To the front, Reach Out and hugged the Orca's Head, "Orcas are not considered adults until they are 20 to 25 years old. That's when their Body Shape is the largest. You are only 17 years old, maybe you are just growing up later."
"Thank You..." The Orca gently nuzzled Chi Feichei with its Head, "Although I have always grown very slowly, hearing you Say So makes me feel much better."
Chi Feichei let go of his Hand and took two steps back, "I Don't Think Orcas would drive an individual out of the Clan because of this. Is there some Misunderstanding?"
The Orca was in Silence for a while, "Okay, let's Say So I left on my own... They prefer Younger Brothers and Younger Sisters, they don't teach me to hunt, and they don't like to Play with me. When eating Food, other Siblings eat first. Never once did they let me eat first. I only ate what was left over..."
"How pitiful..." Hissashi couldn't help but Sigh, "I used to be like that too. Only the Small Loach left over at the end was given to me to eat."
"It's too much, right?" The Orca felt even more Grievance, "I learned to hunt by myself, and I hunted very, very big Prey on my own, but when I took them to See the Prey, they still let other Siblings eat first."
"Too much..." Hissashi Sympathy.
Chi Feichei remained in Silence.
This Orca grows slowly and is too Small Loach. The Clan probably didn't intend for it to hunt. It was enough for it to follow along, Play, and wait to eat.
For a Clan, it is definitely necessary to first provide for the strong Child to grow up.
Letting other Orcas eat first the Prey hunted by this Orca is too much, but if it were other Orcas, they probably wouldn't think too much about it. If they were unhappy, they would make a fuss, and it would be fine soon.
But this Orca is different. It has Ideology and self-esteem. Like Humans, it will compare the Difference between the love it receives and that of other individuals.
"I Don't Think they care about me at all. I just wanted to try and See if that was the case, so when I followed everyone to the Vicinity here, I left the Group," the Orca paused, "Actually, I didn't Go To far. I was secretly watching them from behind, but... but... boo hoo hoo... they didn't look for me, they never looked for me, they just left..."
Chi Feichei Reach Out and patted the Orca's Head to show Comfort.
That was indeed too much.
An Orca Clan is like a big Family. When a Member encounters Danger or a special situation, other Orcas will Rescue or provide help, and will not ignore it.
Abandoning an Orca that seems unhealthy may be a 'survival of the fittest' choice, but it cannot be denied that the Orca leader was too Indifference, and so was the Mother of this Orca Girl.
This Orca Girl's Feeling was right. It would really be abandoned.
Just like the Human heart, if you don't try, you won't know how desperate you will be.
The Orca's Voice was still tearful, "Then I don't want them either... I can hunt by myself, I can Life by myself, and I can also have fun by myself... Annoying, I clearly Said I wouldn't cry anymore..."
Chi Feichei stroked the Orca's Head, "Tsundere Small Girl."
If you really didn't care, how could you be sad?
Hissashi stared at the Orca for a while, held back for a moment, and said in a low Voice, "Don't cry, you sound so girly when you cry..."
"I'm a Girl, what's wrong with sounding girly when I cry..." The Orca choked and retorted, "I-Isn't it allowed?"
"Okay, okay," Hissashi lowered his Head and thought for a while, "It's a Pity you're too big. You must eat a lot in one meal. My Fish are not enough for you to eat in one meal, and we can't fit you in Home, otherwise I could ask Master to take you in..."
Being taken in by Master would definitely not be pitiful.
So, when it encounters something pitiful and to its liking, it will be generous and ask Master to take it in.
No Problem.
The Orca thought for a while. It seemed that it had never considered asking Humans to take it in, but that didn't seem important. It liked this Human very much, and being taken in meant becoming Family...
The next second, the Orca decisively Looked at Chi Feichei, with the four Characters 'pitiful and pathetic' seemingly written in its eyes, "I'm very good at hunting. I can hunt by myself, and I can also hunt for you..."
Chi Feichei Considered for a moment, "I can't take you away."
Orca: "Eek..."
"Listen to me, Orcas in captivity have a Lifespan that is much shorter than the average Lifespan of Wild Orcas," Chi Feichei stared at the Orca and Said word by word, "Even if I build a big Pond for you, it won't be as big as the Sea, and it won't have as much novel Scenery as the Sea."
Orca: "..."
That makes sense, but could you please not stare at it with such a cold Gaze, and your Tone is so stern... It's a bit scary for an Orca.
"Of course," Chi Feichei softened his Tone, and Reach Out again to stroke the Orca's Head, "I can let you live freely in the Sea, but there is another Problem to Consider. I can't Life with you in the Sea, and I can't Keep Company you at Sea all the Time, and I will even be doing my own Things for a long Time..."
"It doesn't Matter," the Orca Said quickly, "I can wait for you. You have to remember to come See me."
"It's because of waiting..." Chi Feichei softened his Voice, "Giving and then taking away is the cruelest thing, especially happiness and joy."
The Orca looked at Chi Feichei's calm Face with Doubt, "But at least there is hope of waiting, and it's not considered being deprived, is it?"
Chi Feichei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly chuckled softly. Before Hissashi and the Orca could See clearly, the smile on his Face disappeared again, and he returned to his calm Face, "You convinced me. What Name do you like? Or rather, what Things do you like?"
"The Name I like... Don't Know," the Orca thought for a while, and Looked at Chi Feichei, "As For the Things I like, it's you."
Chi Feichei: "..."
He is not Things... No, he is... How to explain this?
Moreover, as different Species, could you please not flirt with him casually!
Never Mind, let's think of a Name...
Actually, calling it 'God Whale' would be very good...
Cough, no, at least it's a Small Girl's Name. Although it's big, its Voice is soft and cute. Let's not be funny.
Chi Feichei restrained his Morbid Taste and thought seriously, "Fei Li... how about that? Don't leave secretly by yourself in the future. The Sea is so big, I won't be able to find you."
"Okay... then call me once?"
"Fei Li."
"Call me again?"
"Fei Li."
"Call me again?"
Chi Feichei suspected that the Whale Girl was teasing him. He didn't follow Fei Li's Pace anymore and returned to the Beach chair to sit down, "Fei Li, how do you Orcas See Humans? Why don't you eat Humans?"
Orcas have a Record of injuring Humans, but many Times, Orcas, like Dolphins which also belong to the order Cetacea, sometimes lift people out of the Sea Surface when Humans fall into the Water.
It's rare to encounter an Orca with Spirituality, so it must be Research.
"Humans are not meant to be eaten," Fei Li thought for a while, "My Mother told me that there are no Humans among the Things that can be eaten, and no Orcas think that Humans are meant to be eaten. Moreover, Humans can build such big Ships, they are very intelligent and very powerful, unlike those stupid Fish, but they are also very fragile. If they fall into the Sea carelessly, they will die. I think Humans are really cute, so Small Loach, when I See them, I just want to protect them."
(End of Chapter)
**Chapter 466: Water Cloud State - Water Cloud Immortal City**
The Tai Lake Spirit Domain has a developed water system, with crisscrossing rivers, lakes, and ponds like a chessboard. Transportation is convenient, and frequent exchanges between various places have greatly promoted commercial prosperity.
The Azure Cloud Sect is one of the Seven Righteous Sects, located west of the Northern Broken Boundary Mountain Range and south of the Endless Ice Plains. It governs five Province Territories.
Water Cloud State is the largest Province Territory with the richest water veins.
For six months of the year, it is shrouded in mist and filled with water vapor, like a dreamlike Wonderland, hence it is also known as "Cloud Dream Marsh".
And the capital of the state.
Is named—[Water Cloud Immortal City]!
The city spans hundreds of kilometers, with a permanent population approaching ten million. This is a typical "Great Lake scale". In comparison, Crimson Kite, with a population of several hundred thousand, is already considered a large city.
The population difference between the two sides is too great, leading to many differences in various aspects.
Especially the living state.
The Water Cloud people hurry when they walk and hurry when they leave, from peddlers and porters to high officials and noblemen, all look busy with affairs. Even the hawkers shouting their wares strain their Neck to yell loudly.
Afraid that pedestrians won't hear them, the Market is quite chaotic due to the foot traffic Problem, but it also has a different kind of rich Marketplace atmosphere, developing in an orderly chaos, not entirely a mess.
If Crimson Kite's City began mixing immortals and mortals by imitating the Great Lake with the Purpose of cultivating more suitable age seeds with Spirit Roots.
After All, in a Spirit Vein land, Spirit Qi is abundant.
It can be described as outstanding people in a spiritual land. Children born here after ten months of pregnancy have a greater Probability of possessing Spirit Roots than children born in places without Spirit Vein.
Over time, the number of cultivators naturally skyrocketed.
If the Mortals in Water Cloud City can be described as busy, then the cultivators here can be called Innate Ox-Horse Saint Bodies; almost everyone has thick Dark Circles (Under Eyes).
Mentally and physically exhausted, looking like they haven't rested for a long Time.
Qi Condensation cultivators are at the exploited bottom layer, Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators are a bit better, but in this "Water Cloud Immortal City", they are also in the middle-lower layer. Only Core Formation Stage cultivators live much better.
They can truly establish themselves here.
Arriving at a new Place, the most Important thing is to figure out the number of experts here. Wang Yu adheres to the concept of a great hermit hiding in the Market, approaching the mortal world to avoid being high above for too long and losing his original intention.
Water Cloud Immortal City is divided into the Core District, Inner City District, Outer City District, and Slum District.
The grade of the four Areas can be judged from the Spirit Vein environment.
The Core District has multiple Tier 4 Spirit Veins. The City Lord's Mansion is located within it, with three Nascent Soul Stage experts stationed there long-term, all from the Azure Cloud Sect.
The Inner City District has around twenty Tier 3 Spirit Veins. Golden Core can establish themselves here.
In the Outer City District, the Spirit Veins are relatively scattered, and Due To the large number of people, the range the Spirit Veins can radiate is quite limited.
Mostly Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators live according to the Spirit Vein radiation range, forming a circular stepped Area with high to low Spiritual Energy concentration.
The Slum District is mostly Mortals, or hides some Qi Condensation bottom layers who have offended people. It is also the poorest and most distressed Area.
At this moment.
Wang Yu entered the Marketplace directly from the South Gate and was stunned for a moment.
The so-called mortal world atmosphere is most comforting to the Human Heart.
Cultivators are also Mortals, far from the Extent of detaching from the mortal world. They can neither stand alone from the world nor achieve Longevity.
In the final analysis, they are also just Mortals.
As the first ray of sunshine in the Early Morning sprinkled down, the Marketplace became even more lively, with steaming hot Steamed Buns, mellow and rich Soy Milk, white and smooth like snow Tofu Brain, and fresh and fragrant Mutton Vermicelli.
Wang Yu, who had already forgotten when he last ate.
For a moment, his Appetite was greatly stimulated.
He rubbed his Sea Heart Ring, searched through infinite treasures for quite some Time, but still couldn't find ordinary Silver or Gold, and suddenly felt Regret.
Saying it out wouldn't make people laugh.
A dignified Demon Lord, unexpectedly having no way to eat Mortal food. This precisely indicates that Wang Yu possesses extremely strong Moral Values towards Mortals. Why bother making things worse for The Other Party on their already hard Day?
On the contrary, if it were a Shop operated by cultivators.
Can they go bankrupt just by eating a few bites casually?
Just as Wang Yu was about to Turn Around and leave, a Suddenly sounding clear voice said.
"Hey, I see you're dressed quite well, how come you don't have Money for breakfast? I'll treat you, okay?"
Wang Yu looked back.
In the coming and going Crowd, a Maiden wearing a cyan-pink Cloud Pattern Thousand Water Dress, with a Crossed Cloud Bun hairstyle, beautiful Facial Features, and clear and bright Eyes, could give people a very deep Impression at a Glance.
If this Face were on a courtesan, it would definitely astonish everyone.
If it were on an unmarried Maiden, it would give a feeling of an unvirtuous prostitute. Wang Yu immediately revealed a Curious Gaze.
"Treat me? Really?"
"Of Course."
Beside the Maiden were two maidservants who were also delicate and refined. Wang Yu could sense that trace of Spirit Qi; they should be Mid Foundation Establishment Stage Martial Maids.
Presumably, she is at least a rich family daughter from a Core Formation Family.
Newly arrived, although it is said he is in Secluded Cultivation to heal injuries, Wang Yu wouldn't treat himself unfairly, nor is there any talk of social phobia.
—Let's eat!
"First, a Bowl of Mutton Vermicelli to taste, three Beef Pancakes from over There, one serving each of sweet, salty, and spicy Tofu Brain, ten Steamed Buns with Meat Filling, and that Glutinious Rice Chicken... this Red Date Sponge Cake... that one..."
The Maiden was a bit unhappy. It wasn't that she couldn't afford it, but The Other Party seemed to be treating her like a kind-hearted pig being slaughtered, which was too much.
She immediately Go To beside Wang Yu and poked his Arm with her Finger.
"Hey, you're as thin as a Bamboo Pole, wanting so much, can you finish eating?"
"Just trying something new. If you really let me eat it every Day, I can't."
Immediately after, the Things were sent over one after another.
The small square table Streetside was filled. Wang Yu directly ate with both hands. When eating Steamed Buns, he was as fast as a hungry ghost reincarnated.
Little did she know, he was recalling the meals from when he was a spirit slave.
The Steamed Buns in Water Cloud Immortal City... are not as good as Cold Blood Peak.
Then.
When eating other Food, his Speed was much slower. It could be seen that he was genuinely tasting, but after eating a few bites, Wang Yu's eyebrows furrowed.
His physical sensation was too Keenness. He could feel the various "Defects" in the Food in his Mouth. If he really wanted to satisfy his Appetite, he still needed to find proper Spirit Food to have a good meal.
Just this time, he was tasting the mortal world atmosphere. In a short while, he ate everything clean.
The Maiden's Eyes widened greatly as she watched.
"You can eat so much, how are you so thin? How did you do it?"
"Physique Problem. Miss, is there anything else?"
"No... nothing."
"Then I'll take my leave first. Thank you for the hospitality."
Seeing Wang Yu about to leave, she quickly asked again.
"How should I address you?"
"Meeting by chance, why bother getting tangled up in Appellation Problem? If there is Fate, I'll tell you next Time."
Having said that, Wang Yu's figure in White Clothes like snow had already disappeared into the foot traffic. Aside, the two Martial Maids said indignantly.
"Miss, this person is so arrogant."
"Exactly, why treat him to food? We haven't done the things in the Shop yet."
The Maiden furrowed her delicate brows.
"What do you know? This person's temperament is incompatible with the Water Cloud people. He should be from outside, very likely a cultivator."
"So what if he's a cultivator? There are more than a million Water Cloud cultivators."
"Our Dou Family is not bad either. The number of Core Formation Stage cultivators exceeds ten."
"Oh dear, let's go, let's go, I'm not talking to you anymore."
...
...
"West Mountain Dou Family?"
In the Crowd, Wang Yu was Thoughtful.
He didn't expect to meet the main person so quickly. Could it be that he still has Fate with the Dou Family? As For what he said to Yin Kui about slaughtering the Dou Family to vent her anger, it was just a Joke.
It cannot be taken seriously. The Other Party more wanted him to replace herself to worship ancestors. Yin Kui naturally also has parents and relatives, and indeed should take a look.
Of Course, Wang Yu must prioritize healing injuries.
This Water Cloud Immortal City is After All a Righteous Path city. It is indeed not good for him, a Demonic Cultivator with a pitch black Background, to casually expose his Strength. Moreover, he now needs a large amount of Time to digest the Resource accumulated during this period.
While thinking, Wang Yu first exchanged some Low-Grade Spirit Stone for Mortal Currency, and then walked into a clothing customization Shop, preparing to purchase some ordinary Clothing for Cover-up.
And hearing Wang Yu's Request to make sets of clothing, and not just one set, the shopkeeper shook his head repeatedly, indicating that Wang Yu was ridiculously wrong.
The delivery time was not that fast, it would take at least seven days.
Wang Yu didn't say anything, took out a lump of Gold, and the shopkeeper shook his head repeatedly, indicating that he himself was ridiculously wrong, the delivery time was not that slow, and it could be Handle before nightfall.
He spent the entire Afternoon looking at houses with a broker, and finally found a good two-courtyard house on the Edge of the Outer City District. This Place is adjacent to the Slum District, and the public security conditions are General.
Once a major Incident occurs, the protective formation of Water Cloud Immortal City cannot cover here either. This is a Weakness for ordinary people or cultivators.
For Wang Yu, it was a rare Advantage.
It was just Suitable for him to run away anytime, and also Convenient for him to do something outside the city.
After Disguise as a Mortal, Wang Yu moved in that very Day.
Considering that the number of cultivators in Water Cloud Immortal City is extremely large, it is estimated that they all have the Habit of digging underground quiet rooms. Wang Yu didn't dig again, but instead arranged a Feng Shui Array in a side room.
The main focus was to shield his Aura and Demon Essence fluctuations. After All, his Cultivation doesn't rely on the Outside World Environment. The Placement Slot can slowly advance his Demon Essence growth.
His Energy was first placed on the comprehension of Divine Power Secret Methods.
The All Heaven Stars Condensing Arrow Method, Thunder Fire Heavenly Pivot Secret Method, and Return to Void Hidden Heaven Curse.
These three Divine Power Secret Methods can achieve quick success and have Advantages when cultivating. The others, such as Dragon Emperor Fist, Ice Hell Demon Seal, and Imperishable Spirit Body, all require a large amount of Time to comprehend.
Investing Time in these few Supernatural Powers is somewhat not worth it.
The Prajna Heart Sutra was also moved to the front of Wang Yu's Cultivation plan. His Mind Realm has stayed at the "Third Realm · Immaculate Realm" for a long period of Time.
After the Asura Dharma Intent fused with the Killing Intent he had accumulated over so many years, it is currently in the Minor Accomplishment stage. To reach Perfect, a mere seven Placement Slot are simply not enough.
He can only sort them according to priority.
Three fundamental cultivation method Slot cannot be escaped. The Netherworld Demonic Dragon Art and Ancient Soul Art occupy two, and the remaining two empty Slot first satisfy the Requirement for cultivating Secret Techniques.
Wang Yu directly assigned the Return to Void Hidden Heaven Curse and Chains of Heaven.
Two Void Daoist Canon were comprehended at the same Time.
This Day was the 18th year, February of Wang Yu's Ancestral Master Career. It was also surprising that he left the Inverse Spirit Blood Sect less than twenty years after becoming an Ancestral Master.
Before Secluded Cultivation, his Demon Essence amount was twelve thousand two hundred drops.
Cultivating at this Speed, it would take around sixty-five years to Promote to Nascent Soul Stage fifth layer. This Speed is already considered fast compared to other Nascent Soul Stage cultivators who often take a hundred years to break through.
Moreover, he still has many reserved Nascent Soul Stage.
He can use the Tier 4 Human Pill Art to refine them into Longevity Blood Infant Pill at any Time. Consuming Nascent Soul Stage for Cultivation is a thoroughly Demonic Path behavior.
Operating like this in Water Cloud Immortal City requires extra Careful.
As Long As he doesn't interact with the Outside World Spiritual Energy, hiding his own existence is still very Easy.
After cultivating like this for several days, Wang Yu recited the Prajna Mind daily, trying his best to Eliminate the Impact of the Heaven Refining Intent, causing the Demonic Flame to weaken proportionally.
Although the State recovery was slow, it was steadily advancing.
And he unexpectedly discovered a Benefit.
His Physical Body, caught in a struggle with the Demonic Flame, was actually constantly in a peculiar State of recovering from destruction, similar to the Effect of Body Refinement using Killing Intent back in the Burial Pit Secret Realm.
The only thing that needs attention is the point of going too far is as bad as not going far enough.
In the future, when his Physical Body is completely Recover, Wang Yu will need to supplement a large amount of Life Essence, otherwise there will be a Risk of shortening his lifespan.
The Body Refinement Effect of the Heaven Refining Demonic Flame was merely a pleasant Surprise.
It's better to Solve it as soon as possible.
This Day.
Several hooligans dressed like ruffians knocked on the Main Gate of Wang Yu, the new homeowner. Wang Yu, who was in Secluded Cultivation in the quiet room, sensed these people with clear Purpose before they even spoke.
In an instant, he understood the Reason.
"I showed off wealth when buying the house..."
He then shook his head and laughed. When one's Cultivation Level and Realm are high, it's Easy to overlook things. Some gold and silver are completely not worth mentioning in his Eyes, but in Mortal Eyes, they are a large sum of Wealth.
"It seems my Mentality also needs to change appropriately, otherwise a great hermit hiding in the Market is just a Joke."
In a moment.
Two Date Tree were added to the small courtyard. Wang Yu rarely didn't use the Ice Dragon Dan Flame to do it for him, but personally patted the soil firm, saying to himself.
"Hope you can bear sweet enough Fruit next year~"
The comfortable Day passed day by day.
Due To Wang Yu's Cultivation not requiring meditation, the cultivation of the Prajna Heart Sutra could be done anytime, anywhere. And since being idle was also being idle, in order to Integrate into Life, Wang Yu specially rented another Shop in the Vicinity.
He started a Drinks Business. He would casually pull up some Cogongrass outside the city, melt in some Low-Grade Spirit Stone or ordinary Spirit Pills, and it would be excellent Drinks.
It also had the Effect of strengthening the body. Even if it was sold a bit expensive, the Business was excellent, with many frequent customers. In just three months, he got nicknames on This Street.
Boss Wang, Wang Pole, Brother Wine... etc.
Occasionally, he also encountered those looking for him to have a good meal. The two Date Tree in his courtyard, which were growing more and more lush, proved the outcome of these people.
A little Mortal flesh and blood, he even disliked feeding it to Zombies because it had no Spiritual Energy.
Over time, the Reputation of Boss Wang being protected by cultivators also spread out. After All, those disappeared local ruffians definitely couldn't have been Solved by an ordinary thin Bamboo Pole.
He definitely had backing!
—Three years later.
Wang Family Grass Wine Shop.
Wang Yu, who had grown a Beard, had become much stronger in Physique. He no longer looked like a swaying willow that could be blown down by the Wind. His handsome Appearance and not bad family wealth attracted many Matchmaker to step through the Door.
No father or mother, and immense family wealth.
Isn't he a desirable catch?
Wang Yu declined and refused all of them. He was in Secluded Cultivation to heal injuries, not truly walking into the mortal world. At this moment, there were already two Shop Assistant in the liquor shop, helping those Guests dispense liquor and bottle it.
Wang Yu lay on the Master's Chair, holding a Handheld Kettle, sunbathing in the warm spring Sunshine, leisurely enjoying Life.
End of Chapter
Chapter 468 This kid definitely has a problem!
Chi Feichei thought for a moment, "She once had a relative she depended on who died. Every time she cries, it's because of that relative, but I think although that's a reason, it's not the main reason. The main reason is that after losing her only reliance and spiritual sustenance, and leaving a familiar Environment, she found that the new Environment was incompatible with her, and even developed Self-Guilt..."
He had also seriously considered this point. When he learned of Akemi Miyano's death, Haibara Ai was not in despair. She had thought about resisting, she wanted a Statement, she was escaping the Organization, she had not thought about giving up on life. At that time, Haibara Ai was still strong.
Therefore, the main reason is not Akemi Miyano.
The reason why she cries every time Akemi Miyano is mentioned is probably because Haibara Ai is thinking - if her Older Sister hadn't died, no matter what she was like, at least there would still be someone who could love her, someone she could confide in when she was tired, someone who could Understand her, but that person is gone, gone forever...
Actually, crying for a Reason is better than aimless Depressed Mood.
"Self-Guilt?" Zhi Ming Fukuyama asked doubtfully, "Has she or her Family ever made any Mistake? A Mistake that hurt others?"
"Doctor Fukuyama," Chi Feichei's Tone became colder.
"Okay, okay, I won't ask further," Doctor Fukuyama laughed, "I'm a bit used to it. Then should we consider whether the Cause of Illness is actually that Self-Guilt? She feels that she is a sinner, while others are pure and flawless, and others cannot accept someone like her."
"Yes, afterwards she also had the Idea that the World has no Place to Belong for her. And because of some Problems with the Group she originally belonged to, she worried that the people around her would be Damaged, so she had to deliberately stay away from others, while inwardly longing to be accepted," Chi Feichei said.
Zhi Ming Fukuyama said helplessly, "The Situation you described is a bit complicated, I don't quite Understand. Why does she think the people around her will be Damaged? And Self-Guilt, she previously..."
"Doctor Fukuyama," Chi Feichei reminded again.
This time, Zhi Ming Fukuyama didn't laugh, and sighed, "If you don't Say it clearly, I can't tell you the accurate Answer..."
"I've tried everything," Chi Feichei said.
Doctor Fukuyama: "..."
Meow meow meow?
What does this mean?
Chi Feichei explained his Method of handling it.
First, regarding Akemi Miyano's death, he had guided Haibara Ai to try to accept Memory and treat Memory as a part of Life.
Then there's Self-Guilt. He let Haibara Ai See that he wasn't much better either, and there are many people in this World who are not pure and flawless.
After that, it can also involve the Problem of Place to Belong.
He wanted to secretly instill an Idea in Haibara Ai: the World is so big, it's not just Conan and his Group. If they don't accept something, someone else will always accept it. Whether it's to find true Fellow Birds or stay here and seek common ground while accepting Differences, there won't be no Place to Belong.
If that doesn't work, we might as well become black people, Home Delivery is super cool!
Moreover, there's also the matter of 'Forest Princess'. Haibara Ai would more or less feel that it could be a Place to Belong.
Finally, there's the Problem of the Organization.
Haibara Ai is worried about implicating the people around her.
This cannot be resolved for the Time being, because he cannot resolve the Organization yet.
What's more, it's not necessarily a good thing for him to run off and resolve the Organization alone. He needs to let Haibara Ai participate a little, fight monsters together, so that Haibara Ai will be more Courageous and strong in the future.
However, getting Haibara Ai to participate in this last point is the most difficult, and requires Haibara Ai herself to have the Courage to face it.
When Chi Feichei spoke, he slightly adjusted his Statement.
He described the Organization as a Group of delinquent students...
"You are Male, and different from her. You want her to Understand what facing and Courage is from other Girls, and there's no Problem with that," Doctor Fukuyama smiled, but soon his Tone became serious again, "But what you said before, letting her go and interact with those people alone, isn't just to make her try to be a little more Courageous, but you've also discovered a Problem, right?"
"Yes, I interfered too much," Chi Feichei said.
"Yes, you interfered too much. You took her to interact with other people, wanting to prove that she can be accepted, but when her Emotion Burst, she might again develop Self Doubt, feeling that people are accepting you, not her, and without you, she's still the same as before, still has no Place to Belong," Doctor Fukuyama paused, "Many people, when seeking help from a Psychologist, when receiving help, will regard the Doctor as a Rope that can save them and bring them ashore, wanting to hold on tightly. And one point that Psychologists must abide by is that they must not establish any Relationship with the help-seeker other than consultation. This is not being unsympathetic, but because at this Time, Patients are too easily develop Good Impression towards Doctors. If the Doctor has any bad Intentions, they can completely Subdue the Patient, completely Subdue them. Judging from your words and Behavior, you have not developed Romance Emotion towards her, so what about her?"
Chi Feichei thought back seriously again, "No, I'm sure. There is Reliance, but it's probably treating me as an Older Brother or something."
"Okay," Doctor Fukuyama temporarily believed Chi Feichei's Judgment, although Chi Feichei has never had a Romance Record, and he doesn't think Chi Feichei can Judge accurately, but that can be resolved slowly. Now there's a more serious Problem, "There's another Problem, letting her face it alone... isn't it a bit rushed? Since you were the one who took her to interact with them at the beginning, there should be a buffer stage, take it slowly. You need to know that if she summons Courage to take that step, and gets the Outcome you and she want, that's certainly a good thing, but if she doesn't get the recognition or the expected Outcome, the blow to her will be devastating, and she may very well deny everything before, and the Situation will also worsen. Alas, a fifty-fifty chance, you shouldn't gamble..."
"What if I said, I'm not gambling?" Chi Feichei asked back.
"You arranged someone?" Doctor Fukuyama asked doubtfully, and reminded, "If she finds out, it will be very bad. She will feel that the Situation that had improved in the past was all deception and Pretense, and she will also start to deny everything..."
"I didn't arrange anyone," Chi Feichei turned his Head to Look at the Sea, "I just believe that Group of people can give me and her the Outcome we want, I'm sure."
"You're so Confidence?" Doctor Fukuyama was a little surprised. It's really not easy to hear the word 'believe' from Chi Feichei's mouth.
"Yes," Chi Feichei responded, and then changed the Topic, "Doctor Fukuyama, in addition to not establishing any Relationship with the help-seeker other than consultation, there are two other points: not to discriminate against the help-seeker for any Reason, and to abide by the principle of Confidentiality."
Doctor Fukuyama previously also told Doctor Agasa and them about his Situation... Come on, explain it to him!
Doctor Fukuyama: "..."
What can he do?
Chi Feichei has been silently resisting him and resisting Treatment, and even had the Idea of studying Psychology. He's just too persevering.
Based on this perseverance, he believes that Chi Feichei's Depression is definitely better.
It's just that he's depressed.
In the last Inspection, although Chi Feichei had some minor Problems, there were no major Problems in general.
He doesn't believe that Medical Report is real. Not only does it not conform to the expected Procedure of Mentality changes, but Time Perception Disorder still exists.
This kid definitely has a Problem!
It's just that Chi Feichei has grown too fast, and can actually deceive the Machine and various Inspections. He can't restrain Chi Feichei anymore. And because of some potential Danger in Chi Feichei himself, he feels it's necessary to remind the people Chi Feichei will come into contact with.
Once it is discovered that the help-seeker has a Situation that endangers their own and others' Safety, necessary Measures must be taken or consultations with other Psychologists must be made to prevent Accidents from happening. For this Reason, a little bit of Illness can be slightly disclosed, and he has also limited the degree of exposure of Confidentiality Information to the minimum. Regarding Chi Feichei's Family Situation, the Investigation of Chi Feichei at School before, etc., he just mentioned them casually.
Logically speaking, if he feels he can't do it, then he should discuss it with Chi Feichei and transfer him to other Doctors. But Chi Feichei's Medical Report is there, and other Doctors have no way to keep Chi Feichei in Hospitalization for Observation.
Moreover, no one wants to take over Chi Feichei, this thorny Patient.
He is also not at ease.
Aoyama Fourth Hospital's Ability is already strong enough, and he is also a veteran Physician in it. Even he finds this Patient troublesome and terrifying, and others probably have no Method either.
He is also a little worried that inexperienced Doctors might instead be misled by Chi Feichei.
He came to America for exchange and study, firstly because of the Masuyama Kenzo incident. He Understands that if he doesn't leave for a period of Time and express that he will maintain Confidentiality to the end, Shinchi Group will not be at ease. Secondly, it's because he also wants to go abroad for exchange and study. It's a good thing to have someone pay for his studies.
There is another Reason. He wants to come to America to study and exchange Ideas, to see if he can solve the Problem of Chi Feichei, this thorny Patient.
Unfortunately, he can't Say these Words directly, otherwise Chi Feichei will definitely Say 'So Doctor Fukuyama, you think I'm Danger?', and the Trust that was so hard to build will be gone again.
Now that Chi Feichei can talk to him about his feelings back then and Say so much, he feels it's very rare.
Can't rush, can't rush. The Mistake made before cannot be made a second Time...
Doctor Fukuyama reminded himself to be patient and joked, "Then you won't Report me, will you?"
"No need." Chi Feichei Saw a Seagull flying in the sky and paused for a moment.
The Seagull chirped and landed, drinking Water from a small basin on the Deck.
"Doctor, the results are out."
"Oh?" Doctor Fukuyama quickly asked, "How's the Situation?"
"Good News."
...
On the Beach, Haibara Ai was lying on a beach chair, startled by a Group of people suddenly popping up beside her.
"Haibara, Ran said you're not feeling unwell, so are you unhappy?" Ayumi asked.
"No, Haibara is always like this, she won't tell us even if she's unwell," Genta said speechlessly, "You must Say it if you're unwell, otherwise it will make people very worried, okay?"
Haibara Ai was stunned for a moment.
Worried...
"Maybe it's because Brother Hichiji didn't come, so you're unhappy?" Mitsuhiko guessed.
"That Fellow is just like that, likes to be busy," Conan Half-Moon Eyes, "Why don't we just play?"
"Because we really don't Understand what's wrong with you," Suzuki Sonoko said with her arms crossed, "We discussed it for a long Time and got no result, so we simply came directly to ask you. Little Girl should be more lively, why are you learning to be profound like Brother Hichiji..."
Haibara Ai was silent.
The Whispering of that Group of people just now was not because she performed badly and was disliked, but... because they were worried about her?
"It's okay if you don't want to Say it," Ran smiled and handed an Ice Cream to Haibara Ai, "I don't think we can leave you here alone feeling depressed. How about we Keep Company with you for a while?"
"Let's sit for a while too," Ayumi turned her Head to Look at Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Conan, "Anyway, we're tired of playing too."
Haibara Ai took the Ice Cream handed over by Ran, looked down at it, then looked up at Ran, "Thank You... Ran."
"You're welcome," Ran replied with a smile.
...
"Perhaps it's because of me that their Relationship is much better, but she must Understand that she has long been regarded as a Companion by that Group of people..."
On the Yacht Deck, Chi Feichei was still sitting on the beach chair, on the Call with Zhi Ming Fukuyama.
So, even if there are some Idea Conflicts, he also feels that it's really good to have such a Group of people in this World.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 469 Fei Li, Who Has Great Language Talent
"You've read a lot of books," Zhi Ming Fukuyama said with a sigh, and then he encouraged, "Are you interested in Psychology? You're only 20 years old, you can study it, I'll write you a Letter of Recommendation, and maybe we'll be Colleagues in the future."
"Not interested."
Chi Feichei's answer was not at all subtle.
"Then do you want to come to America?" Zhi Ming Fukuyama asked again, "I'll take you to meet some Help Seekers?"
If Chi Feichei was interested in helping others, that would indeed be a good thing.
"Not going." Chi Feichei refused again, bluntly.
Better not go and bring Disaster to people.
He was able to confirm Haibara Ai's Problem so quickly because he knew Haibara Ai's past too well, and that was just one example, it might not work for other people.
In the previous Shooting Police Matters incident, that Doctor Jinno harmed a patient for his future, if it were him, he couldn't do it.
He could deal with hating that person afterwards, but if someone died during his Treatment, he would feel it was a disgrace.
Veterinary Medicine was like this, and so was Psychology Treatment.
"Okay," Zhi Ming Fukuyama was a little regretful, and then asked, "Are you at the Seaside?"
"Yes," Chi Feichei responded, "Do you think her Situation will recur?"
"That depends on you to continue Observation," Zhi Ming Fukuyama said.
"Thank You, Doctor Fukuyama, I'm going swimming, let's chat another day."
"Beep… Beep…"
Zhi Ming Fukuyama: "..."
Using and discarding after use, excessive!
...
Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call because Fei Li had come up.
Fei Li rested its head on the Deck, causing the Yacht to shake, and only after letting Hissashi climb onto the Deck along its head, did it curiously ask, "That Ice Cream they said they would buy for the Little Girl, is it delicious?"
Chi Feichei stared at Fei Li.
He just had a Phone Call with Zhi Ming Fukuyama, he didn't seem to mention Ice Cream, right?
Just now when the Seagull flew over, it had Said it, in other words…
Fei Li saw Hissashi and Chi Feichei looking at it without speaking, and was a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"Fei Li, can you understand what Seagulls are saying?" Chi Feichei asked.
"Of course, I have great Language Talent, living here for these years, I've learned many kinds of Languages." Fei Li looked up at the Sky, attracting two Seagulls to respond.
Chi Feichei heard clearly, Fei Li Said: Long time no see.
The Seagull chirped, "You're up for air again?"
"No, I have a Master now," Fei Li Said happily, "It's this Human who can talk to you, he's very good-looking, right?"
"Master? Then are you going to leave with him?"
"He Said he would free-range me in the Sea…"
Hissashi was stunned.
Fei Li spoke? Why couldn't it hear it?
Is this the World of Big Shots with Language Talent…
Chi Feichei also remained in Silence.
This is Language Talent?
This is clearly becoming a Monster!
He really wanted to use Scientific Method to Research how Fei Li did it…
Fei Li chatted with the Seagulls for a while, and then switched to Words that Hissashi could understand, "Master is still the most amazing, no need to translate the Sound, everyone can understand when he speaks."
No, what you did is already amazing enough…
Chi Feichei asked, "What other Animal Languages do you understand?"
"There used to be an Animal that was a little smaller than me and had many long feet, it taught me their Language, but later it left, it Said it wanted to go to a farther Place to Check…" Fei Li recalled.
Chi Feichei thought for a moment.
Animal with many long feet?
Octopus? Squid? Jellyfish?
No matter what it was, if its Body Shape was a little smaller than Fei Li, it would be at least three meters, right?
Growing to this Body Shape, it could be called a Sea Monster.
"There's also a kind of fat Fellow that can be eaten, I secretly learned their Language," Fei Li became interested and shared with Chi Feichei, "Some of those fat Fellows are even bigger than me, very big, and they have sharp Teeth, Master, if you encounter one, you must Call me, otherwise you will be eaten…"
Chi Feichei understood Fei Li's description, it was probably… Shark?
"There are other Animals, some of them have very strange shapes, I don't know what they are, I just learned a little bit of their Communication Method," Fei Li Said, "The dumbest are Dumb Fish, many Dumb Fish can't speak, I encountered a Group of Fish that could simply mutter a Sentence or two, there were only thirty or so, I learned two Sentences, but Pity, afterwards they were eaten by me accidentally."
Hissashi: "..."
A Group of Fish…
More than thirty…
Eaten accidentally…
"By the Way, Master," Fei Li's Voice was still delicate, "Do you and Hissashi eat Fish? How about I Grab Fish for you?"
"Okay, okay." Hissashi responded actively.
Sigh, anyway, relying on Master to fish, it probably won't taste fresh Sea Fish tonight.
Putting Bait doesn't catch anything, not putting Bait catches such a big Fei Li.
"I'll go get the Diving Equipment," Chi Feichei Get Up and Said, "Let's go to the Sea to play for a while."
Da Shan Mi had Said that since he was alone, he shouldn't dive, and he hadn't Intention to dive before, if there was an Accident, there would be no Place to Request for Help.
But with an Orca as a Bodyguard, it would be too Pity not to have fun in the Sea.
"Master…" Fei Li tentatively asked, "If you are going to the Sea, can you Help me with a favor?"
Chi Feichei stopped his Footsteps to the Cabin and Turn Head to look at Fei Li.
"Ten years ago, when I just left the Clan, one Night I was too bored, so I wanted to go to the Coast Vicinity to Check on Humans…" Fei Li Said about what happened that year.
That Night, the tide was rising, and a Man who went out to Sea to fish was returning on a Fishing Boat when he encountered an Orca going to the Coast.
He shouted loudly, 'The tide is rising, go back quickly, otherwise you won't be able to return when the tide Subsided', while Intentionally sounding the Flute Music on the Fishing Boat, and throwing Things over to scare the Orca.
That Man probably didn't expect that the Orca understood his Words and remembered his Good Intention.
In the two years afterwards, when he went out to Sea to fish, there was always an Orca secretly driving Fish towards him in the Sea.
Unfortunately, that time only lasted for two years.
On a Storm Night, that Man and his Companion went out to Sea by Ship together.
The Orca encountered an Undercurrent in the Seabed and couldn't keep up in time, and when it arrived, the Man and his Companion had already fallen into the Deep Sea, and their Body Temperature had become as cold as Deep Sea Water.
That Man had a Child who used to go out to Sea to fish with him, and the Orca had seen that Child, and wanted to send the Man's Corpse and some Things found on the Seabed over.
But that Child never went out to Sea again afterwards, only occasionally appearing near the Beach.
The Orca couldn't get close to the Shoal either, so it just waited for that Man's Child to be able to go out to Sea by Ship again one day…
"His Child must be waiting for him to go Home, and if he can't wait, he will be very sad, right?" Fei Li rested its chin on the Deck, "Master, can you Help me send it over?"
"Wait for me to change into a Diving Suit, let's go to the Seabed together," Chi Feichei entered the Cabin, "I'll Help you send it over tonight."
Orcas are Creatures that like 'Travel' very much, but Fei Li has been staying here all the time, he thought Fei Li was waiting for the Clan that abandoned it to come back, but now it seems, there is probably this Reason too…
"Master is so nice~!"
After Fei Li acted spoiled, looking at Chi Feichei's Figure entering the Cabin, it lowered its Voice and Said firmly, "I Said, that was the last failure, I will definitely protect the people I want to protect in the future…"
Hissashi left on the Deck Turn Head, "I can also protect Master."
Fei Li looked at Hissashi, "You are even smaller than Master."
"I have Snake Venom…"
Hissashi Said, and suddenly fell into Silence.
Master's Poison is even more powerful than it is, if it encounters Danger Organisms in the Sea, Master can completely bite the other party to death, it seems it really doesn't need its protection…
Chi Feichei put on a Diving Suit, brought Diving Equipment and a Sack for Things, and also prepared a closed transparent Plastic Box with Oxygen supply for Hissashi.
Sea Snakes cannot Breath in the Water, they need to float to the surface of the Water to get air, and Hissashi is not a Sea Snake, occasionally holding its Breath to play in the Water is okay, but it can't dive deep.
Before going into the Water, Hissashi had adjusted itself.
That's right, its ranking in the Group battle power ranking has dropped another place, but it is the one who has been Keeping Company with Master all along.
If it weren't for it, how would Master, who can't distinguish the Date and thinks there are two Winters in a year, live?
…
Going down into the Seawater, Chi Feichei held the Plastic Box where Hissashi stayed in one Hand, and Grab Fei Li's dorsal fin with the other Hand, getting close.
He dives too slowly by himself, he can hitch a ride on Fei Li's car.
"Master, hold on tight, we'll go get Things first, and then go hunting!" Fei Li shouted while diving into the Sea and swimming quickly into the distance, "Everyone get out of the way, I'm bringing my Master to play!"
Chi Feichei: "..."
If Fei Li's Voice wasn't a bit delicate, this domineering Degree would be comparable to Feimo.
Fei Li seemed to be still very deterrent in the Sea area, and all kinds of Organisms quickly flashed away along the Road.
As for the ignorant Small Fish Groups that didn't flash away…
Directly crash into them!
Hissashi stayed in the Box, watching two Fish that were motionless after being hit drift forward, "What a Pity, such big Fish…"
"Not a Pity, I'll take you to Grab bigger ones later!" Fei Li Said.
Hissashi looked forward to it, "Okay, then let's go Grab a big Fish later!"
Chi Feichei didn't say anything.
He put Wireless Intercom in Waterproof Bags inside and outside the Box, so that Hissashi could chat with Fei Li.
As for him, Never Mind, it is inconvenient to install Wireless Intercom in the Rebreather, and he is also worried that random modifications will cause Accidents during use.
He, remained in Silence to the end.
…
The further down, the darker the Light in the Sea.
Chi Feichei turned on the Diving Flashlight, and dived for another distance, but had to stop.
The corpse sinking Location was deeper than he imagined, the Pressure in the Water was too great, any further down, both he and the small Box containing Hissashi would be Unable to Endure.
Fei Li helplessly Turn Head to look at Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei understood the meaning of Fei Li's Gaze—
You Humans are really fragile.
Fei Li finally gave Chi Feichei a little Face, and didn't say that Sentence, "Then what should we do, Master? That person only has Bones left, I can't pick them up…"
Chi Feichei used the Diving Flashlight to illuminate the Vicinity, and looked at the Fish Groups swimming over in the distance.
Hissashi Helped to explain, "Find other Animals to Help, you can speak other Organism Languages, let Small Fish Help to carry them, or find Organisms that can carry Bones to come and Help."
Chi Feichei nodded.
Hissashi's wave of Translation was steady.
"Then I'll go find them, you wait a moment!" Fei Li swam in one Direction.
Chi Feichei held the Box containing Hissashi, and watched the scenery of the Deep Sea with Hissashi.
Most of those Seabed Videos and Photos were taken with Night Vision Camera.
The Light in the Deep Sea is not that good.
Under the Beam of Light of the Flashlight, the Seawater was still considered clear, probably because Fei Li had just rushed over and disturbed other Organisms, and the Vicinity was empty.
The Seabed below was estimated to be more than fifty meters, pitch black, and a bit unclear.
"There are still Organisms living in this Place," Hissashi was very interested, "It's a Pity that Non-Ink didn't come to Check it out…"
Chi Feichei agreed with this point.
If Feimo was here, and put into a Box with Oxygen supply together with Hissashi, it could also be a Crow that had entered the Sea.
Who told Feimo to run to America to have fun.
After waiting for nearly half an Hour, they heard Fei Li's Voice, "Master, the Bones are brought up!"
Chi Feichei put the Diving Flashlight into the Diving Backpack and opened a Sack.
In the faint Light emitted by the Flashlight, he could vaguely see a Group of Octopuses following behind Fei Li, with Human Skeleton wrapped around their feet, and even Clothing Material that was as tattered as rags was brought up.
(End of Chapter)
**Chapter 469: The Bustle of the Mortal World Cannot Hide Impatience**
The Water Cloud Immortal City City Lord's Mansion, much like the Cloud Ridge State City is to the Inverse Spirit Blood Sect, is an affiliated institution derived from power under the Sect's rule.
The City Lord of Water Cloud Immortal City is an Early Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator. The City Guard Army, Law Enforcement Team under his command, and even the various halls of the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, are all institutions derived from the City Lord's authority.
To a certain extent, they do not belong to the Azure Cloud Sect.
The personnel sources are mostly local Powerful Clans and Independent Cultivators, with Azure Cloud Sect Disciples occasionally joining. The so-called Law Enforcement Elder is very familiar to everyone in the Dou Family.
It is precisely Gu Yanping, one of the three Peak Golden Core Stage cultivators of the Gu Family.
Otherwise, there would have been no need for Dou Zhao to come begging. It was precisely because she knew the Other Party might have the Ability to Help that she didn't hesitate to shed her Face and humbly seek assistance.
The Outcome was that not only did he not Help, but he was also harming the Dou Family.
Just thinking about it makes one feel Anger.
Dou Zhao's Father felt even more Cold in his Heart and Said, "Back then, when Gu Yanping was able to become the Law Enforcement Elder, the Dou Family also provided a lot of Spirit Stones as support.
"Now, not helping is one thing, but he even brought People All to kick us when we're down. This is unbearable! Let's fight them!!"
From his Words, one can see that Dou Zhao's Father's Intelligence is General, and his Temper is very explosive. If not for being the oldest and having excellent Cultivation Talent, it would have been difficult for him to become the Great Master.
At this moment, one can see the wise Plan of the previous head of the Dou Residence. The Second Uncle and Third Uncle are the Real leaders.
The Second Uncle immediately refused.
"Calm down. The Criminal Charge is not yet determined. Acting Recklessly will only make Matters worse. The Original Livelihood will all be cut off by this Action. You absolutely must not be Reckless."
"But then what should we do?"
Dou Zhao's Father spread his Hands, already giving up.
Dou Zhao also couldn't bear to see her Father's embarrassing Appearance at that time. With a red Face, she Said, "Reach Out doesn't hit a Smiling Face. Let's first probe for News from Gu Yanping. We'll go wait in the Guest Hall."
"Okay."
"Zhao'er's Words are very reasonable."
Several People All hurried towards the Dou Residence's Guest Hall. Almost immediately after they sat down, Gu Yanping arrived with a Law Enforcement Team of thirty People.
Waving his Hand to signal his Subordinates to wait Outside, Gu Yanping entered alone, his Expression very Calm. But upon closer observation, one would Discover a hint of Triumphant expression in his Eyes.
Inside the hall.
Dou Xiong, as the nominal highest head of the Dou Residence, was sitting Below the main seat. A position beside him was left empty, precisely prepared for Gu Yanping.
He sat down without being Polite and frankly Said.
"Everyone, I presume you all know what this Gu has come for."
This Gu?
The Dou Family members looked at each other, feeling greatly displeased in their Hearts.
This Fellow used to refer to himself as a son-in-law. His wife was even a daughter of the Dou Clan's direct lineage, but her Father-in-law and Mother-in-law are currently Hosting the overall situation on West Mountain.
Among the People All present, anyone who is Older, who isn't his Elder?
Dou Zhao, however, faintly felt something was Wrong.
Although Gu Yanping is the Law Enforcement Elder of the City Lord's Mansion, no Matter what, he has an Affinal Relationship with the Dou Clan. Matters like determining guilt shouldn't fall to him.
For the sake of legal fairness, avoiding suspicion is what he Should do.
The Law of Great Lake is strict, placing particular Value on Rules. Generally speaking, it is - "Below me, all beings must follow the Rules and not overstep."
Furthermore, the Criminal Charge itself is inexplicable, lacking a Motive.
Even with nepotism, the Process will definitely be questioned.
She suspected Gu Yanping had other Purposes.
As expected.
After talking eloquently about the close and harmonious Relationship between the Dou and Gu Families in the Past Events, he then spoke about the Matter at hand, expressing righteous indignation for the unjust accusation the Dou Family suffered.
His Attitude was so upright, his Statement so fierce.
It greatly exceeded everyone's expectations, almost leaving them bewildered. But as the conversation shifted, Gu Yanping spoke at length about the concept of Strength reigns supreme.
"Men are the knives and choppers, we are the fish meat. Esteemed Uncles, you Should know the Principle that a wise man submits to circumstances. This Matter is not because this Gu is unreasonable, but because the higher-ups need someone to be Responsible for this Matter.
"Local Powerful Clans have always liked to bully men and oppress women, with profligate young masters appearing in an endless stream, constantly slandering their families and inviting disaster. They are indeed excellent objects of criminal charge. What do you all Think?"
"—Absurd!"
Dou Xiong suddenly smashed the desk to pieces, Got Up, and started foaming at the mouth at Gu Yanping, making one suspect he was Intentionally doing so.
"According to your Statement, my Dou Family Should stick out their necks for those Beasts to chop? Even ants cling to life. There is no Principle in the world where whatever they Say is the truth.
"If the Azure Cloud Sect is unjust, this old man will report it to the Sword Sect. The Righteous Path governs the world with Benevolence and Morality. Can it still be covered by these few Rat Droppings?!!
"If he is a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, there will naturally be Spirit Transformation Venerables to deal with him. You, this Junior, are rushing ahead talking nonsense. Do you Think your Gu Family is relying on a Big Tree? Its roots are already rotten to what Extent.
"—You Dolt!"
Dou Xiong's deafening Statement was refreshing, and the Uncles also looked at him as if seeing him for the First Time, sighing inwardly that their worthy brother possessed such Wisdom.
Dou Zhao also looked at her Father with a Face full of adoration.
That thin figure actually had such a great and imposing Day.
Gu Yanping was scolded severely, and his Face immediately fell. He also Got Up and angrily rebuked.
"A Group of Worthless Rabble, do you Think you can turn the world upside down?
"In Water Cloud Immortal City, Under Azure Cloud Sect, No Matter if you are a Dragon or a Snake, you will all honestly coil up for this old man. To tell you the truth, letting you take the blame is the City Lord's Intention.
"I'll give you three days. Hand over all the Dou Family Shops to the Gu Clan, and This Seat will naturally protect these few nieces, allowing your Dou Clan to still have Bloodline remaining in the world."
"You Beast, how dare you shout at your Elders like this!"
"Ridiculous!"
"Boast shamelessly!"
"Fuck your mother! You asshole bastard! Did you eat shit?! This old man will pull out some aged liquor to wash your mouth."
Even though Gu Yanping was a Peak Core Formation Stage cultivator, he couldn't win an argument against a Group of People. If he stayed any longer, his old mother in the ancestral grave would have her tailbone broken.
"Hmph, This Seat won't lower myself to the level of you People All who are about to die. Xiao Zhao, it is your fortune to be favored by the Young Master of the City Lord's Mansion. With your seductive and cheap Appearance, taking you as a Concubine is already flattering."
As soon as these Words came out, the Atmosphere suddenly became Silent.
Dou Zhao's Eyes turned red, Staring at him without saying a word. Her Father, Dou Xiong, was Silent for a moment, then Suddenly burst forth.
"A dog's mouth can't spit out tusks. This old man will kill you with one Palm strike right now!"
Both were Peak Core Formation Stage cultivators. If they truly wanted to kill the Other Party, it would absolutely not be something that could end in one move.
But as Dou Xiong sent out a Palm strike, vast Magic Power condensed into a Palm Print, striking towards Gu Yanping's Chest. Just as he was about to resist, he felt a terrifying Divine Sense Pressure, like an abyss or prison, suddenly descend upon him.
The Scalp Numbing Pressure made his Whole Body stiff.
He didn't even summon his Body Protecting Mana Shield before taking a Palm strike from Dou Xiong, flying backwards out of the Guest Hall and Wail among the Law Enforcement Team members.
His Chest had collapsed, and he was directly heavily injured.
If not treated promptly, he might even die.
The Dou Family members were even more shocked, looking towards Dou Xiong in disbelief.
"No, Brother Xiong, when did you become so fierce..."
"Could it be that you secretly underwent Nascent Soul Formation?!"
"No, no."
Dou Xiong also didn't understand why, repeatedly gesturing the Action of that Palm strike Just Now, secretly muttering to himself.
"Could it be that the Emotion of Anger stimulated my Potential?"
Among the Dou Clan members, only Dou Zhao looked left and right, trying to find that figure she was thinking of in her Heart, but heard a teasing voice from beside her.
"No Need to look. This Seat is here, and I will guarantee your safety."
Due To Gu Yanping being knocked flying, everyone had Already left their Seats and were standing at the Entrance watching.
Hearing this now, they Suddenly turned around.
They saw a figure in White Clothes surpassing snow, with handsome Facial Features, Eyes as deep as the Starry Sky, an elegant Temperament, and a tall and straight figure.
Silver-white Hair Strands naturally draped down, lightly tied with only a dark green silk ribbon. He was leaning sideways on a Chair, a slightly arrogant curve on his Corner of Mouth.
The newcomer was precisely Wang Yu.
In this State, he was completely Different from the mortal Boss Wang. Even though their Appearance was Similar, it was difficult to Confirm that the two were the Same person.
Dou Zhao's Expression went from shock to disbelief.
Her little Heart was beating exceptionally fast, and finally, she couldn't help but Say.
"Many thanks, Senior, for remembering Old Affection."
"That Fellow isn't dead yet, he just can't come back."
The implied meaning was that Wang Yu helping was not Because of her Reason.
It could be considered encrypted communication.
But these two short sentences also let the other members of the Dou Clan Understand that this was One of the Methods Dou Zhao had Said Previously. Although it was a bit late, it was better than nothing.
Moreover... who was that Fellow Wang Yu mentioned?
The Matter at hand is not the Key Point of attention. Outside the Guest Hall, Gu Yanping tremblingly climbed up, looking towards the high and mighty Wang Yu with an extremely terrified Gaze.
"Perfected Core Formation?!"
This kind of existence is not something he can provoke. Wang Yu, however, used the Divine Sense Pressure he had just broken through not long ago to scare him a bit, Because his Demon Essence was inconvenient to show others.
Who knew this person was so easily scared, almost killed by Dou Xiong of the Same Realm. Truly unbearable.
Gu Yanping's Words greatly surprised everyone present.
Regarding Wang Yu's existence, they felt even more excited and Exhilarated in their Hearts. Looking at it this way, the Dou Family is saved. And those Law Enforcement Team Members Originally still wanted to act fierce by borrowing power.
The Outcome was the Discovery that the Other Party was Wu Song. Even the City Lord couldn't withstand Wu Song's Sliding Tackle!
Now they directly became cowardly Tortoises.
Seeing the Atmosphere become Silent, Wang Yu Said to Gu Yanping.
"Go back and Notify the City Lord of Water Cloud Immortal City. Tomorrow at noon, This Seat will personally visit."
"This junior accepts the order."
"Get lost."
"Yes..."
Gu Yanping left the Dou Residence dejectedly. According to Wang Yu's past temper, this person should have Already been thrown into the Thunder Fiend Coffin and fed to Zombies. At worst, he would just change to another City and live in seclusion.
It was Just considering the existence of the Dou Family that he showed leniency.
Regarding the Past Events of Yin Kui and the Dou Family, Wang Yu Actually doesn't know much. But Originally it was Oneself who Sulkingly left the Dou Clan. After Cultivating as a Demonic Cultivator and breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage, he also couldn't Righteously and Openly go Home.
The Transformation after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage in both the Righteous and Demonic Paths involves the root.
Cultivators can tell the Property of Demon Essence at a Glance. It is fundamentally unable to change, and there is also no Secret Method or Mystical Power in the world to Change Mana Foundation.
But with the Property of Demon Essence, if one continues to break through one more Realm upwards, they will possess the Ability of Demonic Corruption, which can entice Cultivators of other paths to fall into the Demonic Path.
This might be the unique aspect of Demon Essence.
After the unimportant people left, the Dou Residence members didn't know how to speak, and all turned their Gaze towards Dou Zhao, their Gaze urging her to Step Forward and chat.
As For the other Doubts in their Inner Selves, after Wang Yu leaves, they can naturally ask Dou Zhao to Understand the Situation.
Dou Zhao, who bore the heavy responsibility, was a bit afraid to Approach Wang Yu in this State. She stepped forward slightly hesitant and Bowed.
"Dou Zhao greets Senior..."
Wang Yu Suddenly smiled.
"It's rare to see you so Polite. Let's not say any more nonsense. Get a Table of Spirit Food and Jade Nectar. My Mouth is so bland it tastes like a Bird."
"Okay, I'll go Arrange it now."
The Response was from Dou Xiong. He secretly gave the Woman a wink, pulled along a Group of Relatives, and hurried away, preparing to go to the best restaurant in Water Cloud Immortal City to get a Table to take Home and eat.
Only Dou Zhao and Wang Yu remained in the Guest Hall.
The former remained Silent, not knowing what to Say. After the Difference in Status was exposed, it was also difficult to Recover to that feeling of being unrestrained Previously.
Seeing this, Wang Yu spoke of Past Events.
Mainly the period of Time spent Getting Along with Yin Kui. At the Same Time, he hinted at his Identity as a Demonic Cultivator, so that the Dou Family members wouldn't Offend more People Because of his existence.
This Preventive Shot must be given early. If it truly reaches the stage where he has to Intervene, he also has to leave Water Cloud Immortal City and find another Treasure Place to cultivate in seclusion.
This conversation continued until Dusk.
After spending a long Time alone, Dou Zhao then Recovered that lively spirit of the past, and Suddenly Said.
"By the Way, where is Qing Fang? I told her to wait for you."
"She's looking after the Shop. My Identity is inconvenient to tell them. It's enough for you to be clear in your Heart. If in the future you truly have no way out, then go to Crimson Kite... There is the ancestor of your Lineage There."
Dou Zhao: "..."
The Public All Say that Demonic Cultivators are cruel and violent, but she however Thinks Wang Yu is very Different. Little did she know, she is also like a leaf covering her Eye. When this Wang becomes cruel, even Egg yolks have to be shaken apart.
As For how to Handle the Matter of taking the blame.
Wang Yu Thinks that As Long As he Reveals his Divine Sense Cultivation Level, pretends to be a Perfected Cultivator, and then displays the Intention to protect the Dou Clan, the Other Party will more or less give Face.
The Rules of Great Lake are also the Rules of the Fist.
Upright and impartial has always targeted the weak. If you Say to the strong that you broke the Law, it is purely a Joke.
It's Just that Great Lake still has a layer of Skin Cover-up, while Crimson Kite is nakedly Revealed in the open. Besides Demon Essence, this Is the biggest Difference between Righteous and Demonic.
After having a big meal and drinks at the Dou Residence, Wang Yu then left feeling satisfied, continuing to be his Boss Wang.
The next Day at noon.
He punctually met the two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators of Water Cloud Immortal City at the City Lord's Mansion. One was a blue-haired middle-aged man at Tier 3 Core Formation, Cultivating a water-type variant of the Cloud-Type Cultivation Method.
His Long Beard reached his Chest, and his Appearance was quite imposing.
But around his Whole Body faintly lingered evil energy. As an Expert among them, Wang Yu could Guess with a Glance that this was from swallowing Spirit Pills refined with Blood Pill Art.
That Living Being's Resentment has not dispersed, and the number of times swallowed was many.
This will form this kind of Appearance. It doesn't have much Impact on the Cultivator Oneself, Just a lack of Morality. No wonder he could do the Matter of letting the local Powerful Clans take the blame.
He is truly not afraid of causing Trouble.
After All, Prominent Clans generally flourish in many Places, possessing outstanding Juniors serving in large Factions, or becoming a Disciple of the Sword Sect. As Long As one appears with Relationship and Ability, an explosion is almost a destined Matter. The Means used are too crude.
Not a Bit of refinement.
Wang Yu concluded he was a mediocre person, or perhaps he had done too many ridiculous Matters Previously, forming a Habit, which is why he was so crude.
