Urban Dominating Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1059 - 1052: The Lord's Mansion Treasury

"Thank you, Brother Qin. This kindness, I, Fatty Bai, will remember for a lifetime."

Fatty Bai's face was full of gratitude.

The Bai Family's current predicament was tough, precisely because the number of Immortal Venerable realm experts was limited, and his father had yet to break through to the Immortal Venerable realm, thus facing repression from the other two major families.

"Hehe, wait until it's successfully refined before thanking me, it's not too late. Let's go, Brother Bai, let's go."

Qin Yang smiled and said.

"Hmm."

Fatty Bai nodded.

Screech~!

The Flying Thunder Eagle let out a cry, circling in mid-air.

"Friend Qin, please wait."

Just as Qin Yang and Fatty Bai were about to ride the Flying Thunder Eagle to leave, an aged voice suddenly rang out, calling Qin Yang.

"Hmm?"

Qin Yang raised his brow, his gaze turned to the figure that had spoken. That figure was none other than the loose cultivator, Old Mu.

"What is it, friend?"

Qin Yang looked at Old Mu, puzzled.

"Young Master Qin, I have an impolite request."

Old Mu gritted his teeth, as if making a firm decision, and said.

"An impolite request? Speak, let me hear it."

Qin Yang raised his brow and said.

"Young Master Qin, I am Mu Ping, and wish to become Young Master's follower."

Old Mu looked directly at Qin Yang, his gaze becoming resolute, solemnly spoke.

"Follower?"

At these words, not only did Qin Yang appear slightly taken aback, but Elder Chi Huo, Elder Qingmu, and other cultivators all were stunned, and immediately, they all turned their gazes towards Old Mu.

Being a follower sounds good nominally, closely following a strong figure's steps and becoming his follower, but in practice, it carries with it the implication of being something like half a servant.

"Your cultivation isn't particularly weak either, tell me, why do you wish to become my follower?"

Qin Yang's gaze fell on Old Mu, asking.

"Young Master Qin, my talents are limited, and it's likely that even after exhausting my remaining hundred years of lifespan, I may not reach the Immortal Venerable realm."

Old Mu's eyes had a hint of dim light as he spoke.

Upon hearing Old Mu's words, Elder Chi Huo and Elder Qingmu exchanged glances, their hearts resonating sympathetically.

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, countless cultivators are stuck at the peak of the Immortal Spirit Realm, their lifespans exhausted without breaking through, and they themselves might not be exceptions. Old Mu here was indeed decisive.

"Young Master Qin's talents are extraordinary, destined for greatness. I wish to follow Young Master Qin's steps, becoming his follower, obeying his orders, and this might be my hope to someday reach the Immortal Venerable realm."

Old Mu raised his head, looking at Qin Yang, a glimmer of light rising in his eyes, his tone earnest.

"You wish to follow me, hoping to someday reach the Immortal Venerable realm?"

Qin Yang murmured to himself.

"Yes, Young Master Qin."

Old Mu sincerely nodded.

"Reach the Immortal Venerable realm? Following me indeed offers a path to it, but I don't require followers at this time. Old Mu, I appreciate your kind intentions."

Qin Yang's eyes flickered slightly, but he ultimately shook his head, declining.

He had too many secrets, especially those concerning the safety of Earth, thus didn't need a follower at the moment, and Old Mu's talents and aptitude were limited.

"Young Master Qin, I am willing to swear by the Heavenly Dao, to wholeheartedly follow Young Master Qin, never to betray."

Old Mu thought Qin Yang had doubts, thus he gritted his teeth and spoke.

As a loose cultivator, although free and unfettered, all resources had to be gathered by oneself, and without a significant fortuitous gain in life, uncertainty lies in breaking through beyond the Immortal Spirit Realm, so he bets once, betting this young man might ascend to greatness.

Old Mu spoke, ready to summon his essence blood and swear by the Heavenly Dao.

This decisive appearance surprised everyone.

Elder Chi Huo and Elder Qingmu exchanged glances, inwardly sighing as they were certainly unable to go to such lengths.

"Old Mu, you don't need to swear. I truly don't need followers at the moment. I can see that your nature is good, calm yet decisive. If there comes a day I need to recruit people, should you not have joined other factions, come then."

Qin Yang thought for a moment but still refused, though this time not too definitively.

Qin Yang's perception of Old Mu's behavior was noted; though not extraordinarily talented, his temperament was commendable.

"Alright, I'll follow Young Master's words."

Seeing Qin Yang truly didn't need him at the moment, Old Mu's eyes dimmed slightly, but he nodded nonetheless, and spoke.

The other cultivators were watching with sighs, a cultivator at the late stage Immortal Spirit Realm in the Great Xia Dynasty wasn't considered weak, yet this young man rejected him as a follower.

"Brother Qin, you actually refused a late stage Immortal Spirit Realm expert follower? If it were me, Fatty Bai, I'd be delighted."

Fatty Bai's small eyes sparkled as he spoke.

"Let's go."

Qin Yang smiled slightly, were it not for his many secrets concerning Earth's safety, he might have accepted Old Mu.

As the words fell, Qin Yang's figure flashed and stood on the back of the Flying Thunder Eagle.

Fatty Bai also leapt onto the Flying Thunder Eagle's back.

"Wait a moment, Brother Qin."

Just as the Flying Thunder Eagle was about to take off, Fatty Bai suddenly slapped his forehead, as if remembering something, and said.

"What, do you have something as well?"

Qin Yang said amusedly.

"Brother Qin, I have heard that Zhuo Bufan, during his tenure as the Lord of Wind Ridge Town for over a decade, had a secret vault containing many items. Now that Zhuo Bufan is dead, why not return and take everything from that vault, Brother Qin?"

Fatty Bai said.

"Secret vault?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang's eyes flashed with a glimmer, immediately focusing on Elder Chi Huo and Elder Qingmu.

"Is there such a matter?"

Qin Yang inquired of Elder Chi Huo and Elder Qingmu.

Although his gains were considerable this time, who would complain about having too many treasures?

Moreover, Qin Yang was no longer alone; he had the Pill Talisman Sect with over five thousand disciples.

Thus, treasures were naturally more the merrier, as on Earth, resources within the Pill Talisman Sect were scarce, with a limited number of treasures and spiritual artifacts. Many disciples hadn't yet wielded treasures; Zhuo Bufan managed Wind Ridge Town for many years, so its vault must contain many treasures.

Elder Chi Huo and Elder Qingmu exchanged glances, initially planning to attempt entering that vault upon return, now with Fatty Bai exposing it, their expressions showed some disappointment.

"Reporting to Young Master Qin, the City Lord's Mansion indeed has a vault, though we only know its approximate location and have never entered it."

Elder Qingmu said; several present had heard the rumors, so they couldn't hide it.

"Hmm, both of you get on, we'll return together. If the vault contains items suitable for you two, I can decide to reward you each with one."

Qin Yang nodded towards them and spoke.

"Yes."

Upon hearing, Elder Qingmu and Elder Chi Huo nodded; the situation favored Qin Yang, and they dared not defy him. So, both sat onto the Flying Thunder Eagle's back.
