Unreliable Sword Immortal.

Chapter 218 Chunxiangyuan

Among the list of sects provided by Jia Daode, there are only four sects that have joined the righteous sects of the martial arts world. Apart from Lu Chaoding's unreliable sword sect and Jia Daode's moral sword sect, there are only the Qingyi sword sect and the Meteor sword sect.

These are two third-rate sword sects, with their disciples dwindling. The Green Robe Sword Sect only has one sect leader, named Mu Qingyi, while the Meteor Sword Sect is ridiculously short of a sect leader. It doesn't even have a base, because it was just wiped out. Now, it only has a deputy sect leader named Li Daxing and a young disciple named Xue Xiaoqing left.

"The righteous factions of the martial arts world are outnumbered and outmatched." Lu Chao patted Jia Zhengyi on the shoulder. "Are you prepared to fight the world?"

Jia Zhengyi, however, remained calm and composed, smiling as he said, "Your subordinate is ready to charge into battle for the Alliance Leader at any time!"

Lu Chao nodded and said, "It seems you understand me."

He rolled up the "big-character poster" and handed it to Lan E, saying, "My lady, good and evil have always been irreconcilable. Only by entrusting you with the heavy responsibility of eradicating the evil sects and the demonic cult can I rest assured!"

Lan E smiled and said, "I understand my husband's intentions, and I will depart now."

After saying that, she selected 30 women and, without delay, immediately set off on her sword.

The First Protector, Zuo Xuandao, couldn't understand. He squinted, pointed at the backs of Lan E and the others, and asked, "What are they doing?"

"Of course, we're going to wipe out the Demonic Sect!" As Lu Chaoding spoke, he also sent a message via flying sword to Hua Dashao, the vice-leader of his reliable sword sect: "Little Hua, it's time to conquer the world and assist Madam Lan E in nurturing Ten Thousand Swords Mountain!"

The flying sword carrying the message immediately vanished into the void.

Surprisingly, Lu Chaoding did not receive any system notifications indicating a problem with the message transmission.

"The unreliable Ten Thousand Swords Mountain can be called a war artifact. Considering the upcoming interdimensional wars, we must cultivate it as soon as possible. That means we can only start a war. Starting a war can also enhance the sect's prestige, and the sect's advancement to first-class status should be faster..."

Lu Chaoding pondered silently.

For the rest of the day, Lu Chaoding spent his time sightseeing and exploring. He piloted the Great Xuan Ship and used the Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique to travel through various parts of Yudu City, gaining a great deal of knowledge.

Jia Zhengyi, Ren Daniu, and General Zuo Xuandao followed Lu Chaoding like attendants.

During his leisurely stroll that day, Lu Chaoding actually gained quite a bit. He learned a lot of information about the Great Yu Dynasty, such as that the Grand Eunuch Yuan Feiying and the Grand Marshal Chen Baji were known as the Twin Pillars of the Imperial City and were the strongest figures in the Great Yu Dynasty on the surface.

But everyone knows that the strongest person in Yudu is not these two, but Yu Fanfan, one of the four extraordinary people.

Yu Fanfan is the founder of the Great Yu Dynasty and the father of the current little empress. He has long since abdicated and has been in seclusion in the Wanfa Tower for many years.

The Wanfa Tower is located behind the palace and is a forbidden area heavily guarded. Even though Lu Chaoding holds the rank of a first-grade official, he is not allowed to enter within three miles of it. He tried to force his way in but failed. The Wanfa Tower is clearly not open to the public yet, as there is an invisible air wall blocking its way.

Lu Chaoding also found an appraiser who appraised the twenty pieces of the [Ancient Sword Cultivation Inheritance Jade Slips].

Those [Ancient Sword Cultivation Inheritance Jade Slips] were quite extraordinary. They were identified as containing three five-star skill books, ten four-star skill books, seven pill recipes, six equipment crafting diagrams, and one each of the special professions [Eight-Armed Sword Saint], [Purple Cloud Sword God], [White Lotus Sword Immortal], and [Dark Fire Sword Demon].

Lu Chaoding no longer cares about these things. As for the four most valuable special profession change certificates, he plans to use the quest hall to farm them when he has free time. He can give them to players in the sect who need them, or he can carry them with him and occasionally give them away to show his generosity.

"It's time to head to Chunxiang Courtyard now."

Lu Chaoding looked at a magnificent wooden building with red silk hanging from its eaves and said something indifferently.

That wooden building is Chunxiang Courtyard.

Lu Chaoding's purple-gold gourd also contained Zhong Baiwei, the garrison commander of the Sigushan camp.

As long as you send him to Chunxiang Courtyard and let him taste the Supreme Ten Thousand Year Intoxication, Chunxiang Courtyard will be given to you by the unreliable system.

This task is not difficult, and Lu Chaoding plans to complete it now.

The Chunxiang Courtyard in Utsu is very deserted. There are many women dressed in sexy clothes in front of the building, trying to solicit customers with their seductive voices, but passersby avoid them like the plague, and even walk around Chunxiang Courtyard.

Lu Chaoding immediately recognized that Chunxiang Courtyard was the same as Chunhua Tower in Tianyun City. The women soliciting customers were fake, created by the madam using the Heavenly Demon Enchanting Heart Technique.

In short, Chunxiang Courtyard is definitely a shady establishment.

Lu Chao ordered Green Willow and other sect leaders' wives, as well as Jia Zhengyi and others, to wait outside the building. He strode into Chunxiang Courtyard, then raised the title of "Hundred Yuan Millionaire" and casually sprinkled some gold coins. At that moment, the madam of Chunxiang appeared.

This madam was also a plump middle-aged woman, whose figure and appearance were comparable to those of the madam in Tianyun City. Her style of doing things was also similar. She flattered Lu Chaoding in every way, treating him as a big spender. When Lu Chaoding took out ten gold coins, she smiled and wished she could serve him personally.

Thus, the task of inviting Zhong Baiwei, the garrison commander of Sigushan Camp, to a night of wine and women was easily accomplished. As soon as Zhong Baiwei finished his drink, Lu Chaoding immediately received a system notification: "Ding, take Zhong Baiwei, the garrison commander of Sigushan Camp, to Chunxiang Courtyard and taste the supreme Wannianzui wine. Mission complete. Congratulations on obtaining Chunxiang Courtyard."

"Ding! You have become the master of Chunxiang Courtyard. Chunxiang Courtyard is a special sect. Its facilities, local specialties, and NPCs are all at your disposal. Please check the Chunxiang Courtyard management panel for details."

After the system notification ended, the semi-transparent Chunxiangyuan management panel automatically popped up in front of Lu Chao.

Lu Chaoding had just finished viewing the management panel of Chunxiang Courtyard when he immediately received a system notification: "Ding, you have become the master of Chunxiang Courtyard, triggering a hidden quest: Subdue Chunxiang Courtyard, Chunhua Tower, Chunfeng Tower, Chunyi Pavilion, Chunnuan Pavilion, Chunyan Tower, and Chunxing Tower, and rebuild the Heavenly Demon Sword Sect.

"Ding!

Completing the mission will reward you with the Heavenly Demon Sword and the Heavenly Demon!"

"Um?"

Lu Chao was taken aback.

"What are the rewards for tampering with the quest? The Heavenly Demon Sword and a Heavenly Demon? Will I be rewarded with a Heavenly Demon? What kind of Heavenly Demon could it be?"
