Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 128 Yang Qing’s Present In His Courtroom

?His chance at payback came when he was at the first stage of the core formation realm and the black dragon horses at the time were at the fifth stage of the core formation realm. A few years had passed since Yang Qing had got humiliated by them.

When Yang Qing came to the spirit beast nesting grounds they stayed at, the two black dragon horses were just like before lording over the other spirit beasts. However unlike before they were many times larger now with their pride mushrooming to epic proportions.

Yang Qing was surprised to notice even with their increased cultivation base, supposed pride, and a lot of time passing by, their sadistic tendencies never left them. There was a poor cultivator buried under a pile of manure while unconscious with a red whiplash mark on his cheek.

Yang Qing didn't waste any time going by the familiar route of vengeance, where he asks the black dragon horses if they remember him, what they did to him, and how he has been training tirelessly to get back at them. When he saw them he immediately gave each one of them a powerful blow to the head which knocked them unconscious after which he buried them in the manure where the other cultivator was.

Immediately after he had the beast taming hall assign those two dragon horses as his mount. Which they were all too glad to do, due to how problematic those two spirit beasts were.

When the two dragon horses woke up with massive headaches they were all too shocked to find themselves in an unfamiliar place filled with all kinds of trees and a green-haired youth standing above them kindly smiling at them as he told them they were his mounts from now on.

In typical fashion, they retaliated with violence and were soundly beaten seconds later.

Yang Qing gave the two dragon horses a solid beating for a whole month while burying them in manure. He did this not out of petty vengeance to repay back the month he went through the same thing, No, he did it from the spirit of a principled and cultured person who always gave back what they received with equal proportions. Nothing more and definitely nothing less.

After a month, all the arrogance had been beaten out of the two dragon horses as they meekly accepted their new duties as mounts. They did try to act arrogantly towards Yi Jie once which resulted in them hiding in Yang Qing's abode for three months without leaving.

With time despite the complicated start, they grew to love Yang Qing's courtyard and its spirit-rich lush vegetation and developed a close relationship with Yang Qing. Yang Qing also promised them the moment they reached the palace realm they would no longer need to serve as his mounts.

…..

"As I promised before, when you reach the palace stage you will be free to do what you want. You can join the beast hall, be instructors at the institute, go the inquisitor route if you want, or join any other departments you would wish to in accordance with your talents.

The options are a lot and you will also get your own place. Though you are still welcome to stay here if you want to. I have more than enough room for two cheeky dragon horses," softly said Yang Qing as he patted their heads before he went in the carriage.

The two dragon horses turned their heads backward at the carriage where Yang Qing was and then glanced at each other before they firmly nodded their heads at each other as if in complete agreement about something.

They soon trotted their way out of the dream cloud abode as they made their way to the court grounds.

"Dammit!!! it seems there really is no other way than to get fined again. I didn't even mess with them that much just a tiny bit here and there. How can arrays be this fragile? Is it a setup to get more money? I really hope Dean Zhu Lao remembers to speak up for me to his wife as he promised," Yang Qing grumbled while in the carriage.

Though he wasn't too hopeful that Dean Zhu Lao would speak up for him. For one he didn't seem like the type to have a voice at home otherwise the 50-year seclusion wouldn't have happened, the other was with his new crazy schedule he doubted he would even remember.

When Yang Qing's thoughts reached this point he decided to throw all worry to the wind and whatever happens next he will take it as it comes. The arrays were already damaged and there was nothing he could do. The fines will definitely come as they always have and there was nothing he could do about that. He will deny the charges like always with creative excuses to back it and they won't believe a lick of it like always and there was nothing he could do about that.

He just had to prepare himself to get his storage ring wiped out of anything valuable like always. It was a familiar dance between them.

"The only thing I can do now is take a nap and dream my problems away. Sweet sleep be kind to your loyal friend today like you always have," Yang Qing mumbled as he dosed off the next instant.

….

Twenty minutes later the dragon horses had already arrived at the court building's entrance. They both neighed a few times before Yang Qing finally groggily woke up as he made his way out of the carriage.

"Thanks, Hei and Ma," Yang Qing waved as he made his way into the building as the dragon horses went their way to a different part of the grounds.

When Yang Qing made his way into his courtroom he was surprised to find no one else in there except the prime source of his nightmares, Lei Weiyuan.

"OL'…I mean supervisor Lei Weiyuan what are you doing here? I know I'm not late," hurriedly said Yang Qing as his voice shook with uncertainty and dread.

"Not that I don't welcome you into my courtroom though as you're the supervisor this could be considered your courtroom too...Your bearing seems more like an immortal's bearing every time I see it…." Yang Qing went on to nervously ramble on for a few minutes shamelessly throwing compliments with awkward laughs before Lei Weiyuan decided to speak up from worrying Yang Qing would talk endlessly if left to his own devices.

"I came here to inform you for the next three days you will not be handling any cases but handling rank 5 promotion evaluations in the southern quadrant from the white baobab kingdom all the way down to the boundary of the Bluesky carp sect.

Here's the list of the sect, clans, and organizations you will be reviewing. They are about 1,400 or so which can be easily done within three days. Luckily cultivators don't need to eat or sleep.

All the best blood, sweat, and tears Yang Qing. The Order expects great things from you," Lei Weiyuan calmly said as he left the talisman with the list in the pale-faced, wide-mouthed, and frozen Yang Qing.
