102: Chapter 46 Frustrated Attempt at Lying Flat 102: Chapter 46 Frustrated Attempt at Lying Flat “This isn’t…
I heard that the Sect Leader has assigned you to go to the East Sea to participate in the six-sect trials…”
Li Dazhi put down the teacup in his hand and sized up Li Ping’an, who was dressed in the disciple’s robes.
It had been five years since he started practicing cultivation in the mountains, and Li Ping’an still maintained the sa appearance as when he had co from the secular world, only his complexion had beco fairer.
Just like him!
Li Dazhi continued:
“I was just looking over a few account books when I heard that you all were about to set off.”
“I hurriedly put down my affairs to admonish you a few words and see if you’ve been neglecting your cultivation.”
In front of all the elders, Li Ping’an said energetically, “Father, please be assured, I’m currently following my master in cultivation.
The path to immortality is long and arduous, and I dare not slack off in the slightest.”
Li Dazhi nodded with a smile.
Several outer sect elders said in succession:
“Ancestor Li Dazhi manages countless affairs every day while we idle away our ti like clouds and wild cranes, we’re truly ashad.”
“If there’s any errand to run, Uncle Li Dazhi, just leave it to us.
Let us old bones exercise a bit too; otherwise, how can we progress?”
“Uncle, you work too hard on ordinary days.
Our Wanyun Sect is thriving, and within a hundred years, we must return to being one of the Eight Great Immortal Sects!
Hahaha!
It’s all thanks to your fortune and unparalleled talent, Uncle.
We truly want to contribute more to the sect and make the last of our years count.”
Li Ping’an: …
The spirit within the sect!
In just a short two years, does it still resemble an immortal sect?
It’s clear that his own father is leading the outer sect immortals astray.
Doesn’t the Sect Leader care?
Luckily, the outer sect managent elders only made up a very small part of the sect’s immortals; otherwise, Li Ping’an would indeed feel a bit guilty.
After all, he had been a ‘partner in cri’ to his father’s prestige.
“The elders are too kind,” Li Dazhi said as he stood up with his hands clasped, “I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with my son Ping’an, so please excuse us.”
“Ancestor, there’s no rush,”
“We’ll just step aside.”
A few elders held Li Dazhi back, taking the initiative to stand up and retreat;
When Xinhuai Wang, the managing elder, left, he conveniently added a few layers of immortal power barrier to the inner hall.
Li Dazhi made faces at Li Ping’an.
“Dad.”
Li Ping’an walked gracefully over to his father’s side and took a seat, starting the local dialect conversation:
“You sure are scheming to arrange to go sowhere.
I don’t want to go out.
Going out, I might encounter trouble, and not get much benefit.”
“It’s the Sect Leader’s arrangent.
By the ti I knew of this news, the order had already been issued.”
Li Dazhi advised with a chuckle:
“I don’t want you wandering about either.
Your grandmaster said that my fortune affects yours, and you can easily encounter chances when you step outside, but you’ll also et the troubles that co with those chances.”
“Fortunately, this ti it’s a trial for the disciples from six immortal sects, with many immortals from the six families participating.
You just need to keep a low profile.”
“Why have you beco more cautious these past two years?”
“Back when we were ho, I never saw you being so cautious.”
Li Ping’an replied indifferently, “Back ho, a murderer would face death.
Here, a murderer becos a hero.”
“When you put it like that, it makes sense.”
Li Dazhi laughed and said:
“Standing with the Wanyun Sect, we share Wanyun Sect’s honor and loss.”
“Moreover, both your grandmaster and the Sect Leader treat us well.
Going out to win so honor for the sect isn’t a bad thing.”
Li Ping’an asked, “How has your cultivation been progressing lately?”
“I haven’t been slacking off,” Li Dazhi clicked his tongue, “I’m not far from achieving True Immortality, but the breakthroughs are getting slower and slower.
Without so sort of opportunity, it would indeed be difficult to reach True Immortality in ten years.”
Li Ping’an slowly nodded his head.
He had actually misunderstood sothing.
He thought his father was talking about still needing ten years;
What Li Dazhi ant was cultivating for ten years.
“Sigh.”
Li Ping’an’s eyes were sowhat vacant:
“My immortal armor set failed again.
I can’t seem to make it past the most crucial step.”
“I’ve flipped through all sorts of tos in the sect, and I’ve hit a bottleneck in the art of Artifact Refining.
And the various devices my master helped refine are almost used up.”
“This path is too difficult.”
“I’ve heard that the Yuan Sect specializes in Artifact Refining, and they have secret techniques for puppets, allowing the puppets to move like living people.”
Li Dazhi laughed and said:
“Once we collaborate with them to create Castcloud Hall, I’ll help you get so of their insights into Artifact Refining.”
Upon hearing this, Li Ping’an imdiately perked up and seriously said, “I’ve already seen the Yuan Sect’s secret puppet-refining techniques in various sect records, and I’m truly interested in it.”
“Alright, alright, I got it!”
Li Dazhi spoke earnestly:
“You say you want to focus on cultivation and not waste ti in frivolous matters delaying the great business of becoming an immortal.
But on normal days, I don’t see you constantly ditating and cultivating.
Instead, you are always tinkering with those Magic Artifacts and Elixir Pills.”
“Is that useful?”
“If you make a hundred pieces of bizarre Magic Artifacts now, can you match a single strike from a true Yuan Immortal?
You’d be better off putting effort into romance.
I want a grandson; is that so difficult…”
“Dad!”
Li Ping’an just had to laugh awkwardly, grabbing the teacup from his father’s side and taking a swig, then standing up and saying:
“The other disciples are still waiting.
I should get going!”
“Hey!
Why are you running away!”
“I’m off, I’m off.
To the East Sea for the six-sect trial, I will strive to bring glory to our sect!”
“Here’s sothing for you.
Rember, harmony is key; don’t get into fights with disciples from other sects!”
Li Dazhi threw a Storage Pouch over.
Li Ping’an caught it with his hand, opened it to take a look, and inside there were more than twenty different styles of Storage Magical Artifacts, with mountains of Spirit Stones and treasures stored inside them.
Li Ping’an waved his hand and didn’t take a single cloud with him.
He had grown accustod to his father’s lavish support.
…
Li Ping’an was planning to find Xinhuai Wang, the managing elder, to chat and relieve himself of the position of team leader disciple;
