Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation, I became a role model of righteousness

Chapter 289 Xu Chengan

The Kingdom of Nan'an is a mortal kingdom located in Dongzhou.

From top to bottom, the country is basically made up of mortals.

Because this country is located on the territory of the Wanfa Sect, it is also considered one of the Wanfa Sect's vassal states and is under the protection of the Wanfa Sect.

For small countries like this one that are dependent on a sect, the sect will send its disciples to garrison there.

The purpose of being stationed here is to protect the security of this country.

However, although having monks stationed there is definitely greater security, the stationed monks will not help in everything.

If the danger comes from cultivators, monsters, or other forces from the immortal world, the stationed cultivators will take action to resolve it. If they cannot resolve it, they will report it to the sect.

If the danger comes from internal strife among mortals, the monks will not interfere in such a fight, no matter how fierce it is.

To cultivators, mortals are nothing more than ants. How could they possibly care about the infighting among ants?

However, the sect will protect these weak mortal kingdoms, of course not just for the sake of doing good deeds.

Like Nan'an, this country has fertile soil and a lot of spiritual soil with low spiritual energy, which is suitable for growing spiritual rice.

In order to seek the protection of the Wanfa Sect, the people of Nannan Country have to pay tribute to the Wanfa Sect with all the spiritual rice they grow every year, and the Wanfa Sect certainly would not take things from others for free.

They will pay the bill with real money from the mortal world, and will also send people to protect them.

For these mortal kingdoms, they do not lose out from such a deal.

"This is Annan, the capital of Nan'an Kingdom. It looks quite prosperous." Liu Chengshuang looked around.

The streets are clean and tidy, and pedestrians on the street have smiles on their faces. It can be seen that the quality of life of people in this country should be good.

"Let's go to the Imperial Master's Mansion to find Senior Brother Xu first."

Feng Jing was not interested in the quality of life of the people in Nan'an. He just wanted to find the spy from the Gui tribe as soon as possible, complete the mission and report back.

The Imperial Master's Mansion is easy to find because it is the most magnificent building besides the Imperial Palace.

After revealing their identities, the nine people successfully entered the Imperial Master's Mansion.

Why are there nine people? Because Han Yu did not leave after divination, but followed Jiang Li and others to Nan'an Kingdom.

At this time, Xu Chengan was practicing in the National Master's Mansion.

Xu Chengan, male, is one of the direct disciples of Wanfa Sect. He learned from a spirit-transforming elder of Jijian Peak and his cultivation level is the early Nascent Soul stage.

Originally, with Xu Chengan's cultivation level, he didn't need to go to this kind of mortal country to garrison.

But who made him get injured ten years ago?

In order to heal his wounds, he needs to take a special medicine.

This kind of elixir is not available in the sect and is rarely sold outside.

He had no choice but to ask someone to refine it.

But if you ask someone to make the elixir, you need to provide the herbs yourself.

He has already found all the other herbs, except for the last one.

This last medicine is not easy to get because it is a reward for a sect mission.

To complete this task, he needs to garrison in Nan'an for thirty years.

Only ten years have passed now, and there are still twenty years to go.

In the past ten years, he could only take some stabilizing pills to prevent his injuries from getting worse.

For the monks, thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.

And the danger in the mortal realm is not high.

Xu Chengan thought that as long as he stayed here for 30 years, he would be able to easily get the herbs he needed and then find someone to make elixirs to heal his injuries. However, all these beautiful fantasies were destined to be shattered today.

"Uncle Xu, there are disciples from the Inner Sect Law Enforcement Hall visiting us outside the gate."

There are some other disciples who have accepted the mission and are stationed here like Xu Chengan.

However, these people are different from Xu Chengan. Most of them are ordinary disciples whose talents and potentials have been exhausted. They just want to find a place to get the sect’s rewards and then live a life of idleness and wait for death.

Except for ordinary disciples who have no talent, no potential, and no backing, most disciples with a little talent would not choose to garrison in the mortal realm.

After all, the spiritual energy in the mortal world is low and not suitable for cultivators to practice.

Of course, there are exceptions like Xu Chengan.

However, cases like his are extremely rare and rarely occur.

"Who is coming?" Xu Chengan opened his eyes from meditation and looked at the disciple who was speaking.

"The leader is Senior Uncle Feng Jingfeng from the Inner Sect's Law Enforcement Hall." the disciple replied.

"Except for Uncle Feng, there are eight people traveling together."

"Take them to the reception room, I'll be there in a moment." He instructed the disciple.

As soon as the disciple left, Xu Chengan stood up from his meditation mat, muttering to himself with a puzzled look, "How strange, what is Feng Jing doing here? Is there something wrong?"

“I hope it’s not a big deal, and even if it is, I won’t be involved.

I just want to live out the remaining twenty years in peace and quiet, then get the reward to heal my wounds, and I don’t want any complications.”

When Xu Chengan went out to meet Feng Jing and others, the group was already sitting in the reception room drinking tea.

After the two sides met, some greetings were inevitable.

Feng Jing introduced the identities of other people to Xu Chengan one by one, among whom Han Yu, a disciple of Tianji Sect, caught Xu Chengan's attention.

However, he just glanced at her twice, said hello, and then paid no more attention.

"...So, you are here for the spy from the Gui clan." Xu Cheng'an sat in the host seat in the middle, drinking the spiritual tea brought to him by his nephew, looking very leisurely.

"That's right." Feng Jing nodded.

Xu Chengan glanced at Han Yu and asked, "You guys came here. Could it be that this Daoist Han figured out that the Gui clan spy is in Annan City?"

"That's right." Feng Jing nodded.

"In my opinion, this is absolutely impossible." There was nothing unusual on Xu Chengan's face, but everyone could feel that he was very disgusted with this matter and did not want it to be true.

"Senior Brother Xu, Fellow Daoist Han is a disciple of the Tianji Sect. Are you afraid that he might have made a mistake?" Lu Yao was furious when she saw his perfunctory attitude.

"I don't mean that, but this is a serious matter, so it's better to be cautious." Xu Cheng'an said it in a high-sounding manner, but in fact he just didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

"We believe in the divination results of Fellow Daoist Han, and hope that Senior Brother Xu can cooperate with us, reveal some of the situation in the palace to us, and then take us into the palace to meet the King of Nan'an."

Feng Jing directly stated his purpose.

The reason they came here was actually hoping to get some help from Senior Brother Xu.

After all, he has been rooted in Nangan for many years and is definitely more familiar with the situation in the palace than they are.

They wanted to find the spy from the Gui clan in the palace, and they needed this person's help.

I thought that since we were all from the same school, the other party would agree if I asked for help, but I didn't expect him to be so perfunctory.

"Junior Brother Feng, you don't believe me, Senior Brother? I am stationed in Nan'an Country, and I think the spies of the Gui Clan will not dare to come.

Even if he really came, he probably just stayed for a short while and then left.

Instead of wasting time here, why don't you go somewhere else?" Xu Chengan said.
