A great adventure in the world of immortal cultivation

Romeo: I love you, Xiaocao, you are such a capable sister!

Xiao Huohuo: I always feel like you, you bastard, are driving...

KP: Looking at the chicken soup in the pot, Xiaocao sighed.

Xiaocao: ...It’s a pity that there is no salt at home, otherwise it would taste better.

Joan of Arc: Sister Xiaocao, you have worked hard. Eat two more pieces to replenish your body.

Xiaocao: No, no, I ate a lot at noon, so I’m not hungry now…

KP: Xiaocao waved her hands to refuse, but her stomach made an inopportune sound and her face suddenly turned slightly red.

Xiaocao: ...This is for the immortal masters to eat, I can’t eat it.

Jeanne: I'm a little angry. I told you, don't call me Master Immortal, call me Sister Jeanne.

Xiaocao: Joan of Arc...sister.

Joan of Arc: I responded with a smile, then pulled off a chicken leg and stuffed it into Xiaocao's mouth. I touched her head and said, "My sister is so good and obedient."

Xiao Huohuo: You are so good.

KP: Unable to resist the enthusiastic Jeanne, Xiaocao refuses the chicken leg, looking somewhat distressed, but more than that, delighted, like a long drought finally ending. Compared to her previous complete resistance, she now seems to be gradually accepting your kindness.

Joan of Arc: I feel like a daughter being raised in a cultivation system. I love it.

Xiao Huohuo: My sister’s sister is naturally my sister too. I’m going to feed her like crazy!

Romeo: Then I will scramble for food like crazy, because everyone is a baby.

Han Buli: Damn, leave some for me!

025 Missing Information (Day 14)

Jeanne: By the way, KP, I want to ask Xiaocao, what’s the matter with her father disappearing?

KP: When Xiaocao heard your question, he seemed a little flustered and fiddled with his fingers nervously.

Xiaocao: No, no... I misremembered it before. My father died two years ago. The village chief is right. I sometimes have hysterics...

Xiao Huohuo: Well, I was threatened by that old cow.

Romeo: I told Xiaocao sister, "Don't be afraid of Lao Deng. We are the people's immortal masters. No matter what happens, we will protect you..."

Xiao Huohuo: Unless you can’t protect it?

Romeo: Damn!

KP: Because of the bad impression left on her earlier, Romeo’s persuasion not only failed to make Xiaocao open up, but made her purse her lips even tighter.

Joan of Arc: Let me do it. I want to talk to sister Xiaocao and tell her that patience is useless. A hemp rope will break at the thinnest part, and villains will only harm kind people. You think patience can buy temporary peace, but patience can only bring you a lifetime of oppression. If you really have grievances and difficulties, don't be afraid to speak out loudly. I, your sister, will definitely take care of it for you.

Joan of Arc: Talk, 88/50, failed.

KP: However, Xiaocao just kept shaking her head, clutching the corners of her clothes with both hands, tears glistening in her eyes.

Xiaocao: Master... Sister Jeanne, please stop talking. I really don't have anything to say. I'm living well in the village...

Xiao Huohuo: Alas, I can’t stand up after kneeling for so long.

Romeo: Oh, I'm so angry. I also have some words. Let me do it!

KP: So due to your negative impression, your speech check needs to be -20.

Romeo: I want to tell her, you are afraid of your village chief, and your village chief is afraid of me, so I am the most awesome. You will be bullied anyway, so why not let me bully you? I will ensure that you have enough food and warm clothes, and you can see Da Kun Kun every day!

KP: Is this a rhetoric trick?

Romeo: Talk, 1/(60-20), great success.

Xiao Huohuo: Holy shit!

Romeo: Yeah!

Joan of Arc: ...I don't understand.

KP: I don’t understand it either.

Romeo: Don’t try to understand me, just tell me if it works or not! It works or not!

KP: I really fucked Juliet...Okay then, although the young Xiaocao can't quite understand your ludicrous words, your actions and expressions still show your perversion to the fullest, and Xiaocao was instantly scared and tears welled up in her eyes.

Xiaocao: No, don’t.

Romeo: Then you resist. If you don't, I'll hey~hey~hey~~~

Xiao Huohuo: Grass, I am a little grass and I am afraid too.

KP: So, under Romeo’s perverted stimulation, Xiaocao’s psychological defenses were finally broken, and she covered her face and cried inconsolably.

Xiaocao: Yes, I’m sorry, I don’t want to lie to the immortal masters...but I really have no choice.

Joan of Arc: I gently comforted Xiaocao and asked her why she was so afraid of the village chief.

Xiaocao: I can't leave this village. My father is missing, and I have to wait for him at home... If I offend the village chief and his men, they won't let me go after you, Master, leave...

Xiao Huohuo: Poor kid.

Romeo: If she refuses to leave, it seems like there's really no solution. How about we kill everyone in the village?

Joan of Arc: Are you a devil?

Xiao Huohuo: No... Actually, it’s not impossible.

Joan of Arc: Huh?

Xiao Huohuo: Think about it carefully. This village has so many problems, with people missing and suspected cult involvement. How could this not be related to the village chief? If we stay here to investigate, it's likely that we'll have to confront the village chief and the forces behind them.

Romeo: That makes sense. Then I will tell Sister Xiaocao directly that we in Chengtian Sect have received the news a long time ago. The disappearance of the villagers is caused by your village chief. We came down the mountain this time to kill your village chief. Now it’s time for you to choose your side.

Xiaocao: Wha, what?!

KP: Xiaocao was shocked after hearing your horrifying speech, but considering your previous successful rhetoric (intimidation), Xiaocao's mind is still in a confused state, so he did not become suspicious.

Xiaocao: How could it be that all the disappearances in the village... were caused by the village chief?

Xiao Huohuo: (Nods) That’s right, we are the immortal masters of Chengtian Sect, a famous and upright sect. If you know anything, Xiaocao, you must tell us. This involves human life. Maybe we still have a chance to find your father back?

KP: When Xiaocao heard that it was about her father, her hands tightened, as if she had finally made up her mind.

Xiaocao: I don't know much about what happened in the village, so I might not be of much help to the immortal masters...

Joan of Arc: It's okay, Xiaocao, don't be nervous. Just tell me about your father's disappearance.

Xiaocao: ...My father disappeared two weeks ago. He was a hardworking, family-oriented man. Ever since my mother passed away, he'd been home on time every day. But that day, he didn't come home all night. I searched the entire village but couldn't find him. Since that day, people have been disappearing in the village one after another. The village chief initially led everyone in a search, and some even went up the mountain to seek the help of a Taoist priest. But three days ago, the village chief suddenly changed his mind, saying that the missing people had gone to the realm of the gods. He then distributed a lot of property to the families of the missing, saying it was a gift from the gods, that the missing people were living well there, and asked us not to look for them anymore, lest we anger the gods.

Joan of Arc: God? What God?

Xiaocao: I don’t know what kind of god it is…

Joan of Arc: It’s okay, Xiaocao, just continue.

Xiaocao: Because most of the villagers are very poor, the money and property that the village chief gave out can allow a family to have enough food and clothing, so the families of the missing people almost all chose not to pursue the matter and instead thanked the gods for their blessings.

Xiao Huohuo: What exactly are those properties?

Xiaocao: Most of them are gold and silver objects with strange shapes, and they have an earthy smell, as if they were dug out from the ground.

Romeo: Damn, there's a huge tomb here! Did you hear that, Lao Han?

Han Buli: I heard it, I heard it! My hands are thirsty and hungry.

KP: You heard shit, go follow me.

Han Buli: rua.

Joan of Arc: Well, I think I understand. So, Xiaocao, you were ostracized by the village chief and others because you were unwilling to accept this so-called gift from God, right?

KP: Xiaocao nodded, and a sense of determination appeared in his thin little figure.

Xiaocao: I, I just want my dad to come home. These things are of no use to me!

Xiao Huohuo: Good girl.

Romeo: Sure, sure. I feel like the goal of this mission is very clear, which is to defeat the rich and divide the treasure.

Xiao Huohuo: The Japanese invade the village 2.0.

Han Buli: Why should your next Anning Village be called Anning Village?

KP: That's enough. (Half annoyed)

Jeanne: Well, it's getting late. I want to thank Xiaocao and tell her that the information she provided was very valuable. Then I'll let her go to bed early. We'll go talk to the village chief tomorrow.

Xiaocao: Okay...but I can just sleep on the floor, and Sister Jeanne, you guys can sleep on the bed.

Romeo: No, you will catch a cold if you sleep on the ground in such a cold day. Little Grass, you should sleep on my body.

Joan of Arc: I kicked Romeo out to be a watchdog, and then told Xiaocao to stop making trouble, be obedient and sleep well.

KP: So, Xiaocao was dragged by you onto the straw bed. Under the light of the crackling firewood, a warm red glow gradually appeared on her little face, and her eyes became blurred and scattered.

Xiaocao: ...Sister Jeanne, why are you so nice to me?

Joan of Arc: It’s not that we are nice to you, it’s just that you have forgotten that there is still beauty in this world.

Xiao Huohuo: Good sentence, I picked it.

Xiaocao: This world... still has beauty...

KP: Amidst the murmurs, the grass fell asleep.

026 Eavesdropping (Day 14)

KP: Okay, now it’s time to go through Han Buli’s storyline.

Han Buli: Hurry, hurry, I want to go back and eat chicken with good luck.

Jeanne: He really likes chicken.

KP: After walking around the village for a while, Han Buli followed Niu Da to an open courtyard. Compared with most of the low wooden houses in the village, this courtyard with stone walls was simply a mansion.

KP: Not noticing your stealth following, Niu Da walked straight into the wooden house in the courtyard. There was a silhouette of another person on the door. After Niu Da pushed the door open, the sound of conversation soon rang out in the house.

KP: Okay, Han Buli, what are you going to do?

Han Buli: I want to go over and listen to what they are saying.

KP: You listen, and you're lucky.

Han Buli: Listening, 17/(50+20), success.

Lucky, 58/70, success.

Han Buli: I feel like I can hear some shocking news.

KP: So, you stand on tiptoe and put your ear against the wooden door. Although the voices in the room are not loud, thanks to the enhanced five senses after your enlightenment, you can still hear their conversation clearly.

KP: One of them spoke in a gruff voice. It was Niu Da who had just walked in.

Niu Da: Humph, it was all your good idea, uncle. Why send a chicken? You made me suffer this humiliation for nothing!

???: Tsk, they are just two chickens, why are you so angry...what's with the wound on your face?

KP: The other person's voice sounds familiar, you were inspired.

Han Buli: Inspiration, 27/(50+20), success.

KP: Although the voice was less mellow than before, you still managed to identify it. The person speaking was none other than the village chief Niu Quankang, who had bowed and noded to you at the village entrance.

Romeo: If we are not from the same family, we will not enter the same door.

Niu Da: What else could it be? It was just that bastard immortal master who beat me. This is really too much!

Niu Quankang: Hush—shut up!

KP: After the booing, the voices stopped, and then a low sound of footsteps came towards the door. Han Buli, you are too agile... Forget it, Han Buli, you immediately climbed over the eaves agilely after you discovered it. The next second, Niu Quankang's head popped out from the crack of the door. After looking around, he found that there was no one around, so he shrank back.

Niu Quankang: Be careful when you speak, don’t let anyone hear you!

Niu Da: Tsk, I’m really angry. Besides, who would be here at this hour…

Niu Quankang: In short, it’s better to be careful. The man named Li next door has been displeased with us for a long time, not to mention that four immortal masters have come to the village just by chance.
