Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 527 Master Du

Shouts came from the deck, and then gradually became chaotic.

It was clear that something had happened to the cloud boat, and the cultivators who were resting in the cabin all came out to prepare for the rescue.

Wei Xi and his two companions had no choice but to follow the crowd and thus arrived on the deck.

The elders acted even faster, beginning to disperse the clouds in the sea of ​​clouds in an attempt to clear away the obstacles hindering the cloud boat.

But the clouds, like cotton candy, clung to the cloud boat, refusing to let go.

The elders of Linchuan Pavilion threw out spells one after another, but nothing happened.

Sin Wah, however, stood to the side with a displeased expression, arms crossed, showing no intention of making a move.

Seeing Wei Xi and his friends emerge from the cabin, Xian Hua beckoned her beloved disciple to her side.

"My dear disciple, look at what's going on here."

Wei Xi stood in front of her master as instructed. She was in no hurry to express her judgment, as knowing what to say in this situation was an art.

This cloud boat was repaired by Elder Xianhua. The original belonged to the Qingcheng Sect and is entirely their private property.

Now, their own boss is practically rolling on the floor, showing no intention of doing anything to save the transport vehicle, which clearly indicates there's some unpleasantness going on.

Wei Xi's ability to read people wasn't top-notch, but it was more than enough. Thanks to his advantageous geographical location, he had a complete view of the chaotic scene.
An unidentified object crashed into the ship from below the starboard deck sideboard, shattering two side ribs and embedding itself firmly in the hull. Silky clouds swirled around the joint, and even dozens of streams of spiritual energy falling on it were powerless to dispel the clouds. As the ship rocked, the unidentified object repeatedly squeezed the wooden structure, producing a sound that made one's teeth ache.

But there's something even more terrifying—the Qingcheng Sect wasn't the only victim; neighboring cloud boats all collided with the same unidentified object. The Qingcheng Sect's vessel wasn't even the most severely damaged.

It is easy to imagine how enormous this object must be.

"Reporting to Master, several cloud boats have collided with an unidentified object, and this obstacle does not react to spiritual energy."

As soon as Wei Xi finished speaking, someone said, "You brat, are we blind? Do you need to say all this? Hurry up and persuade Xian Hua to start repairing it."

Wei Xi didn't need to think about it anymore; the bad stuff just popped out on its own.

Wei Xi replied respectfully, "Elder, you may not know this, but stupidity is more deadly than blindness. The cloud boats are equipped with dispelling formations and identification and navigation runes, so they will never collide with obstacles in the sea of ​​clouds. Even if one of them malfunctions, several will not collide at the same time."

"Besides, how could the disciples on duty not see such a huge obstacle?"

"It's clear that this thing is targeting our group, and it's very likely that it's been following us all the way. The cloud sea is just a smokescreen. Elders, you should focus your attention on checking for any unfamiliar presences around us. As for the cloud boat, it's best to leave it to the professionals!"

Wei Xi's only advantage was his respectful attitude; the words he uttered were extremely harsh, yet they were a wake-up call for everyone.

Only the elder of Linchuan Pavilion, who had been called a fool, was furious and shouted, "You ill-mannered wild girl! How dare you speak to your elders like that?"

Not to mention that Wei Xi is now a Core Formation cultivator and is not intimidated by this old bastard who is still only at the Core Formation stage at his age, Xian Hua is standing behind her.

With his master's cultivation level, he could easily beat ten of these old bastards without breaking a sweat. Wei Xi laughed, "I am a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect, and you are an elder of the Linchuan Pavilion. My respect for you is a sign of respect for a guest. But you addressed my master by his name and bossed me around. I was merely retaliating in kind, so why are you so angry? Furthermore, I helped you understand the current situation, yet you showed no gratitude whatsoever. It seems you have no right to judge other people's manners."

"Also, stop using your seniority to intimidate people. It only exposes your age and lack of accomplishments, and serves no other purpose."

Wei Xi said he felt incredibly satisfied arguing with people on his own sect's cloud boat.

That old bastard's eyes were blazing with anger. He didn't even consider why his domineering ways had met their match today. He only knew that Wei Xi was a junior who had defied him.

Just as Ding Quan was about to make a move, his spiritual power was pushed back by another spiritual power.

“Fellow Daoist Ding, you’re in your seventies or eighties, how come you can’t even stand the truth?” Xian Hua always spoke with a frank tone, and this time was no exception. “Among a bunch of people, you’re the one who’s jumping around like a monkey.”

"Just now I said that the situation was unclear and it was inconvenient to take action, and your fellow Daoists also tried to dissuade me. But you were stubborn as a mule and insisted on jumping out to take action. You were tripped up by these unclear clouds and mists, and many fellow Daoists had to clean up your mess."

“I called my apprentice here to help, but you attacked her because you lost face. Putting aside your own rude behavior, and the fact that a child might imitate you and talk back, is it right for you to resort to underhanded tactics?”

Sin Wah's words were a bit harsh, but he has always had a reputation for being eccentric, so it wasn't exactly outrageous.

Ding Quan was no match for Xian Hua, but he couldn't swallow his pride either, and he uttered arrogant words, "Since when can a bunch of down-and-outs spout such nonsense! If word gets out, we'll all be a laughingstock!"

"Ding Quan, watch your words!" The younger Elder Linchuan Geluo stopped his fellow disciple who only knew how to cause trouble, and turned to Xian Hua, cupping his hands and saying, "Elder Xian Hua, don't be angry. He has always been a scoundrel. I will report to the sect leader and he will be severely punished!"

Xian Hua sneered and was about to speak when he heard the voice of the Qingcheng Sect Leader coming from behind him.

"Young Luo, you're really good at playing dumb! How come you can't even control your own sect's people while riding on our Qingcheng Sect's ship?"

In terms of cultivation, Elder Luo of Linchuan Pavilion is far superior to the leader of the magic sect, but in terms of position, the leader of a sect is always more useful than an elder.

Elder Luo knew he was in the wrong, but Ding Quan had powerful backers, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and try to mediate. "Sect Leader Mo..."

“I didn’t know that Linchuan Pavilion had become so disgraceful,” a middle-aged man next to the magic sect leader said. “To allow such a clown to be an elder?”

The cultivators of Linchuan Pavilion on the cloud boat couldn't sit still any longer—for nearly a century, Qingcheng Sect had been the punching bag of the cultivation world, looked down upon by everyone. Even among its top disciples, most were cultivators with extremely poor talent, how could they compare to the disciples of Linchuan Pavilion? Now, being so insulted by a sect they despised, these "chosen ones" naturally couldn't sit still, and were all filled with righteous indignation.

Elder Luo felt trapped in a dilemma, regretting that he hadn't properly disciplined his disciples.

But the commotion stopped abruptly, and Granny Silver Bracelet, leaning on her cane, came out of the cabin. It was she who used a spell to silence the disciples in the sect.

Granny Yinchuan walked to the center of the conflict, didn't even glance at Ding Quan, and bowed to the middle-aged man next to the magic sect leader.

"I have met Master Du. I am quite fortunate to have the opportunity to meet you today."

After a moment of thought, Master Du finally pieced together a somewhat familiar face from the wrinkles.

"Yinchuan, you've become an old lady. It's clear that time flies and waits for no one."
