The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 28: I'll Find You Another Wife

Regarding what Cheng Moyang said, the short Young Master Yang curled his lips slightly: "Should be quite interesting, especially like last time, having Fang Yong do it.

"Wouldn't that be even better?

"And our hands won't get dirty either."

After pausing, he expressed some regret: "I've been intentionally keeping my distance from Fang Yong recently, not sure when he'll come find us."

Cheng Moyang said with a smile: "Go to the small courtyard, he passes by there quite often."

Sure enough, not long after they started cultivating in the small courtyard, they saw Fang Yong passing by.

Fang Yong immediately approached familiarly and asked: "Young Master Cheng, what have you been using to cultivate recently?"

Hearing this, Cheng Moyang replied with a smile: "I've been cultivating in the Spirit Gathering Hall."

After pausing, he asked: "What about Young Master Fang?"

Fang Yong's eyes showed hesitation, then he spoke: "I also go to the Spirit Gathering Hall to cultivate.""Is that so?" Young Master Yang nearby said with a laugh, "Young Master Fang is no ordinary person either. Since we're all cultivating in the Spirit Gathering Hall, let's go together another day."

Fang Yong nodded with a smile: "Alright."

Only then did Fang Yong leave.

Watching him depart.

Young Master Yang chuckled and said: "I bet he's never even stepped through the main gate of the Spirit Gathering Hall."

Cheng Moyang shook his head: "Just because someone walks with us and goes to the same places doesn't mean they're the same as us."

The two left laughing.

This was just the beginning, things would get even more interesting later.

——

Jiang Man obtained the token but didn't dare make it public.

Naturally, such matters needed to be kept hidden.

After all, the entire Azure Cloud Pavilion knew nothing about the experiment.

This indicated that those above had no intention of letting those below know about this matter.

Some things nobody wants to share with everyone.

The more Jiang Man understood this, the more he felt he had gambled correctly.

Although Teacher Zhao's price was high, at least he got things done.

Some people take benefits but only know how to go through the motions with people.

"Logically speaking, he might not necessarily have the qualifications to compete for such a spot, but with the Animal Husbandry Method you gave him, his status and position have risen by three points, giving him the qualifications," Old Yellow Ox spoke up.

Jiang Man swallowed the Qi Condensing Pills and continued cultivating.

Currently, the fifth gourd wasn't even half full yet.

To securely obtain the opportunity, he wanted to quickly advance to the sixth level of Qi Refinement.

"So this opportunity was actually won by me?" Jiang Man guided the spiritual energy in his body.

"You can comfort yourself that way," Old Yellow Ox said.

But soon it suddenly froze and said: "It's here."

"What's here?" Jiang Man, who had been about to cultivate, was quite surprised.

"Your wife's methods are here again," Old Yellow Ox said as light began to appear on its body, "Wait until I stabilize, then you draw out the light."

Since it wasn't the first time, Jiang Man had some experience.

Soon the light was drawn out.

It condensed into a ball of light in his hand, then shone on him again.

The voice belonging to the other party came again: "Husband is still alive? Then has the evil god your husband is raising told you that the Magpie Bridge opens once a year? It's lying to you."

As the words fell, the light disappeared.

Jiang Man: "..."

"What did she say?" Old Yellow Ox asked.

"Said Brother Ox is lying, the Magpie Bridge doesn't open once a year," Jiang Man truthfully reported.

There was no need to hide such matters.

Compared to that fairy, he still tended to choose to believe Old Yellow Ox first.

After all, he currently relied quite heavily on the other party.

"She's lying to you, trying to drive a wedge between us," Old Yellow Ox explained.

Jiang Man wasn't very concerned either.

"Do you think what she said is the truth?" Old Yellow Ox asked.

Jiang Man shook his head: "I don't know, anyway the Magpie Bridge definitely isn't open right now."

If it were open, the other party would have come long ago.

Why continue applying methods.

"The more suspicious you are of me, the easier it is for her to apply methods and thus locate our position. When the Magpie Bridge isn't open, her methods aren't obvious, but if the Magpie Bridge opens, she can use this suspicion to quickly determine our location," Old Yellow Ox explained.

After pausing, it added: "As long as we completely avoid her, when I recover, I can find you another wife."

Jiang Man: "..."

He felt Old Ox was making empty promises to him.

Hesitating for a moment, he asked: "Brother Ox, how can you recover? Do you need my help?"

"Naturally I need your help," Old Yellow Ox replied.

"What do you need me to do?" Jiang Man asked curiously.

Old Yellow Ox glanced at Jiang Man and said casually: "Wait until you can survive these hundred days of tribulation first."

Jiang Man shrugged.

What trapped him wasn't the Peerless Prodigy Fate, but... poverty.

He didn't even have cultivation techniques.

If he had woken up getting married in that village, ten lives wouldn't be enough to die.

Because there were no resources to obtain there.

Working hard for a month, aside from food and drink, he might not even afford Qi Condensing Pills.

Within the Cloud Front Division, not only was Spirit Source easier to earn than outside, but Qi Condensing Pills were actually relatively cheaper too.

This was something he discovered after buying Qi Condensing Pills for a while.

The Cloud Front Division received preferential treatment everywhere.

After going out, it would truly be a bloody world.

No wonder Song Qing wanted to be Luo Xuan's guard.

After going out, such opportunities might never come again in this lifetime.

"Brother Ox, what do you think the next stage requirement of the fate is?" Jiang Man was somewhat curious.

Old Yellow Ox didn't answer at all.

Jiang Man didn't ask further, since asking wouldn't yield answers anyway.

After that, it was cultivation.

He had been awake for over two months, basically spending time cultivating and earning Spirit Source.

Or offending people.

Fortunately, everyone was striving for the later spots, giving him enough breathing room.

In the following time, Jiang Man focused on cultivation.

Studying and cultivating during the day, going to the Spirit Gathering Hall in the evening.

Then earning Spirit Source to buy pills, continuing cultivation.

Time passed day by day.

Every day Jiang Man could see the water in the gourd increasing.

Forty percent, half, sixty percent.

Until November 13th.

When Jiang Man finished his cultivation.

The water in the "gourd" had reached ninety percent.

Tomorrow the 14th, buying one more Qi Condensing Pill.

Would be about enough to reach the sixth level of Qi Refinement.

As his appetite kept increasing, Spirit Source not only had to buy Qi Condensing Pills, but also some food.

Currently he had three hundred fifty Spirit Source.

Mainly because the Spirit Gathering Hall gave him an extra hundred tonight.

Because a certain guard had matters, Manager Miao needed him to substitute for a day or two.

Fortunately it was the end of the month, so he was naturally willing.

Otherwise he'd have to wait until tomorrow going to the Spirit Gathering Hall to reach three hundred.

One hundred Spirit Source for guard duty wasn't bad at all.

Of course he had to hesitate a bit, otherwise the other party might feel they were losing out.

The next day.

November 14th.

Jiang Man got up early in the morning.

Planning to handle stable matters first.

But just as he arrived, Jiang Man froze.

Today the stable had another person and another horse.

The person was naturally Fang Yong.

And the horse wasn't the same one as last time, this time it was silver-white.

Illusion Moon Silver Mane.

A wild horse that became a spirit by absorbing moonlight essence, its silver fur becomes transparent under moonlight, leaving afterimages when running.

Extremely fast, with strong endurance.

A mount many people dream of.

How did Fang Yong get one?

"I'll calculate Spirit Source for eating your feed," Fang Yong said.

Jiang Man frowned, surprised: "Young Master Fang, what are you doing at my place?"

Fang Yong looked disdainful, he didn't want to come, but the horse was tired and wanted to come this way, then wanted to eat the feed here.

Otherwise how could he come here?

Last time was where he encountered changes.

Just as he was about to speak, suddenly the Illusion Moon Silver Mane's fur began developing spots.

Then it let out mournful cries from its mouth.

Instantly, he turned to look at Jiang Man.

Jiang Man: "..."

So it's aimed at me.
