Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 345 - Jia Hui

Chapter 345 – Jia Hui

The county city of the Yuxian was also known as the Yu Cheng, and was located at the center of the entire Yuxian, and was also the center of it. This wauge city that was built because of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and at the foot of the mountain, this city accompanied the Heaven-Shaken Sect for countless of years from its birth.

At this time, Yang Junshan followed a caravan halfway to the city that had a history of several thousand years and couldn’t help but think back to his encounters during the past two months.

Two months ago, when Yang Junshan left the Xishan Village, he viewed this trip to the County City as a journey to broaden his horizons. However, the entire process of this journey gave Yang Junshan a creepy feeling.

Other than the Mengyu County, Yang Junshan had joined a caravan heading north. The destination of this caravan was the same as Yang Junshan, both of them were Yu Cheng s from the Yuxian cities.

Regarding the addition of Yang Junshan, especially after knowing that Yang Junshan was a cultivator from the martial arts realm, the manager of the merchant group welcomed him. The addition of a Martial Realm Cultivator would obviously help the merchant group in increasing their strength, even though Yang Junshan felt that this caravan with three Martial Realm Cultivator s overseeing it was strong enough.

However, after walking for less than two days, Yang Junshan encountered a bald cultivator who was dressed in sackcloth. As the caravan passed by him, he even clasped his hands together and bowed slightly.

Shi nationality Cultivators!

Yang Junshan even had the thought of killing someone, but in the end, he endured it. Then, he heard a burst of laughter coming from beside him.

“Haha, Brother Yang, don’t panic. These people won’t cause any trouble. I haven’t seen anyone like him, right?”

Shopkeeper Liu and the other two Martial Realm Cultivator s laughed as they looked at Yang Junshan’s remaining wariness.

“Does that mean Shopkeeper Liu and the two dao friends have seen someone dressed like this before?”

Seeing the puzzled look on Yang Junshan’s face, Shopkeeper Liu explained: “To be honest, this old merchant was also full of caution the first time he saw these people. He almost made a move as he walked along the road in this desolate mountain and forest, it’s hard to not let others connect him with the raiders.”

The other two Martial Realm Cultivatolso nodded in agreement. A caravan like theirs, who walked in the wilderness for many years, would be cautious and hostile towards people they met on the way.

However, Yang Junshan had noticed the words “these” in Shopkeeper Liu’s words, and asked: “Could it be that there are a lot of these people? From the shopkeeper’s tone, it seems that we frequently meet these people!”

Shopkeeper Liu pondered for a moment, then said: “Almost every time we are in the business world, we would meet one or two people on the road of business. These people are very strange, always walking alone, rarely seeing more than two people walking together, and many of them are barefoot.”

Before he finished his sentence, he had never closed the box. He continued, “However, these people have proved to be of no threat to the caravan, but do not think that they can provoke them without any threat. Hehe, these people are not easy to deal with!”

When he said that it would not be easy to deal with, a strange expression flashed across Shopkeeper Liu’s face, as if he had thought of something, and it seemed that Shopkeeper Liu had suffered under the hands of these Shi nationality cultivators, otherwise, he would not be so familiar with them.

However, Manager Liu’s words were not easy to deal with, causing Yang Junshan to suddenly think of a different species of Shi nationality Cultivators in his previous life, namely ascetic monk!

Unlike the other cultivators of the Shi nationality who had spread their teachings and developed their followers, who used their followers’ offerings to amass cultivation resources, the monk who walked on the path of suffering was different. He used his followers’ suffering as a form of cultivation, and compared to the other cultivators of the Shi nationality who used their exquisite illusions to create lotuses, Yang Junshan was more convinced of the monk’s suffering.

But at this time, Yang Junshan thought of something, and asked Shopkeeper Liu: “These ascetic cultivators are so strange, could it be that they have not attracted the attention of the various towns along the way, and Heaven-Shaken Sect has not come to check on their background?”

Shocked, Shopkeeper Liu said: “What’s there to look at? Everyone has their own cultivation methods, and it’s not like there are no such things as hiking or hiking in the cultivation world, especially for those who cultivate special body forging techniques. Moreover, hiking based on the body is a form of training for a cultivator’s willpower.”

Yang Junshan blinked, he did not know what to say, and turned to look, only to see the cultivator walking again after the caravan had passed, but he kept falling further and further away, until he disappeared at the end of the back road.

Afterwards, just as Shopkeeper Liu had said, they met two more bitter cultivators on the way. The last time they met, the bitter cultivator who had a worried expression but whose age was unclear was currently on the side of the road collecting a few corpses that had already been torn apart.

When the caravan passed by, Shopkeeper Liu stopped and called for a few waiters to dig a hole with the cultivator and bury the dead.

“Sigh, they were killed by the berserk beasts.” Manager Liu sighed and said, “In recent years, there have been more and more berserk beasts, and they have become more and more intelligent. In the past, many solitary berserk beasts have learned to join forces.

The expression on Yang Junshan’s face kept changing, the demonic Qi that lingered in the forest beside the road that had yet to disperse actually told him who the real fierce beast was.

“The number of berserk beasts increased and they attacked so many people on the street. Does no one feel strange?” Yang Junshan suppressed the emotions in his heart and pretended not to understand as he asked.

“Brother Yang, you look like someone who has never gone out before. What’s so strange about the dead people in this wilderness forest, it’s just that the caravans who travel back and forth between the mountains and the mountains have noticed us. Furthermore, those ferocious beasts only come and go on the streets of the desolate hills and villages where there are people living, but no fierce beasts have ever dared to come near us.”

Then you can report to Heaven-Shaken Sect and find out why these fierce beasts have become so smart and frequently attack the people on the street.

“Why should he help us?” The ridicule on the corner of Manager Liu’s mouth was no longer concealed: “The lives of us business people aren’t worth so many Jade Coins s. Besides, berserk beasts are still berserk beasts, so no matter how smart we are, we can’t become adults.

Yang Junshan now had another impulse surging, he really wanted to loudly tell Innkeeper Liu, berserk beasts were not berserk beasts, but beasts that had already gradually gained intelligence. Furthermore, when the cultivation of the beasts reached a certain level, they could transform into human beings, just that at that time, the worst case scenario would be the strength of the realms of life, which could not be described as a disaster anymore.

“Alright, the corpses of these people have already been buried. Brother Yang, it’s time for us to leave as well!”

Yang Junshan, however, did not reply. Instead, he turned around and walked in front of the ascetic who was about to continue walking forward. With both of his hands placed together, he said: “Amitabha, please, how should I address you?”

The monk was obviously shocked by Yang Junshan’s etiquette and words, the pained expression on his face seemed to have disappeared quite a bit as he quickly bowed and replied: “Amitabha, this humble monk, Jia Hui, greets Benefactor. I do not dare call you Master, I wonder if Benefactor has come into contact with this poor monk’s clan, why are you so familiar with my clan’s etiquette?”

Yang Junshan laughed, and said: “This master does not need to worry, I only have some questions to ask master, what do you think about the matter of the fierce beasts devouring people?”

The Shi nationality cultivator called Jia Hui muttered to herself, “Everything has their own intelligence, all living beings are equal. Humans kill ferocious beasts, while fierce beasts eat humans, there is no more cause and effect in the world!”

“Hehe,” Yang Junshan laughed. It was unknown if it was ridicule or something else, he only cupped his hands and said: “I understand, Master, we will meet again!”

With that, Yang Junshan got on the caravan’s carriage and left. Only the monk, Jia Hui, who was standing on the spot and watching the caravan disappear from her field of vision, slowly turned and left.

What Jia Hui did not know was that when Yang Junshan got back to the carriage, he saw Shopkeeper Liu and a few others looking at him strangely, which made Yang Junshan feel extremely uncomfortable.

“What is the meaning of this?”

Many people that tried to come into contact with them thought that they were deaf and dumb people. This old man had coincidentally helped a bitter cultivator and that’s why he opened his mouth to thank me. It was also because of that time that he got to know them. “Shopkeeper Liu’s face was filled with disbelief as he said,” You brat, you were actually able to get close with that bitter cultivator.

The other Martial Realm Cultivator in the caravan also added: “Seeing how you bowed to that man with such an experienced appearance, it seems like you are extremely familiar with them and are so unkind!”

Yang Junshan immediately apologized and said: The three of you do not misunderstand, this is indeed the first time I have seen this cultivator, but I have seen some self-proclaimed Shi nationality’s people, and their clothes and attire are extremely similar to that of the cultivator, but those people can speak clearly, and often bewitch others into becoming their followers, and then retract the material and resources they need to cultivate. These people called themselves Shi nationality, and each called themselves Buddha, so using the etiquette of the Shi nationality to meet the cultivator, but who would have thought that they were mistaken!

“Oh, are those Shi nationality cultivators?” Shopkeeper Liu seemed to be deep in thought, not knowing that the “people” he was referring to were the bitter cultivators he had encountered on the way, or perhaps he had also seen those Shi nationality cultivators that Yang Junshan had spoken of before.

After the caravan entered the Yu Cheng, Yang Junshan then parted ways with Shopkeeper Liu and the others. After spending a few Jade Coino rent a puppet car, Yang Junshan walked towards the smithing workshop located in the Yu Cheng.
