All of them acted at the same time, at once, a layer of gold shield protected everyone inside it, they then dragged the three that had collapsed into the defense array, only then did they look more relieved from the pain.

Everyone lifted their heads and looked up at the sky in the terror. They then realized that it was full of spirit swords, densely lining the entire sky. Every one carried sword qi that made one’s blood run cold and could drop down anytime. Right in the middle, a man could vaguely be seen riding on a sword.

Yu Luan paled instantly, exceptionally nervous at heart. This was a sword cultivator! And it was a sword cultivator that could subdue a Soul Formation cultivator, that means he was also in the Soul Formation stage. But he did not know why he was suddenly striking at them, hence he could only bite the bullet and shouted, “May I know which expert has arrived at my Gui Yi Sect?”

Lonemoon also glanced at Chef in the air who had summoned a sword array, the corner of his mouth twitched instantly and he scolded through a voice transmission, “What are the two of you doing? I said to show off, not wipe out the sect!” Could they bring out some acting skills like they do when they fool him?

Chef stiffened. “Um, habit!” He was familiar with fighting, but showing off was evidently in Father Niu’s line of business, it was another profession!

Hence, the spells in his hand changed, at once all the spirit swords in the sky started to gather and formed an eight huge white sword spirits. They flew in eight different directions, then with several rumbles, landed around Gui Yi Sect, forming an enormous array formation. In moments a layer of white light flashed and covered the entire Gui Yi Sect, in the next second, it gradually lightened and disappeared with the eight huge swords.

Since he accidentally ruined a Protective Mountain Array, he’ll just compensate them.

Below, everyone who was on guard as if they were facing a formidable enemy suddenly faltered, what was going on? Earlier on, he acted like he was here to wreck the place, now, not only had he retracted the sword qi, he even set up an even more powerful Protective Mountain Array for them.

Everyone was dumbfounded, but seeing that the other party seemed like he had no intention of attacking, they involuntarily sighed in relief deep down and curiously looked up into the sky.

A while later, they saw a man descending on a sword, dressed in blue, his body radiating a faint Sword Qi, the spirit qi surrounding him was already that of late stage Soul Formation. His handsome and aloof face looked like—he was here to give out money.

“Why did you transform into Boss Lan’s appearance?” The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched. It gave him a scare, he thought that Boss Lan had come to the lower realm with Radish.

“Master told me to change my appearance, I couldn’t think of any others so I changed in someone familiar.” Chef sent through voice transmission, I was afraid of being recognized by the invader.

“Someone familiar, why didn’t you pick Fatty but Boss Lan?”

“Fatty is too short, he doesn’t look like one!” Yi Qing was bold and justified.

“…” Only a fool would believe you, you just mind that he’s fat, don’t you?

“Greetings Supremacy!” Yu Luan went forward, nervous and fidgety and bowed with cupped fists. “Pardon my ignorance, may I ask which sect Supremacy is from?”

“Itinerant cultivator!”

“Itinerant cultivator!” Yu Luan was even more surprised, when was there such an ace sword cultivator amongst the itinerant cultivator. “Then why did Supremacy come to our Sect?”

“No reason!” Yi Qing answered subconsciously.

“…” Yu Luan was stumped, then why did you scare people for nothing?

“Chef, find a reason to stay!” Lonemoon sent through a voice transmission, this was a ready-made chance, don’t dream of slacking anymore.

“Well, there is a trivial matter!” Yi Qing’s tuned changed as he turned and looked towards Zuo Shuming at the side.

Zuo Shuming had yet to return to his senses from that shocking Sword Qi earlier, he gazed at Chef with shock, agitation, yearning and disbelief. Turns out that this is a sword cultivator! He had chosen correctly, turns sword cultivators can be this powerful, able to subdue cultivators of the same phase simply using Sword Qi.

“May I know what’s the matter? Is there anywhere that my Gui Yi Sect can be of help?” Yu Luan said with great respect, a Soul Formation sword cultivator was equivalent to a Traveling immortal, no sect would easily offend such a cultivator, instead, they ought to do their best to be on friendly terms with him, what’s more, he was in the late stage of Soul Formation!

Chef stiffened for a moment, it was so difficult to make up excuses and whatnot, he wasn’t Father Niu, what to do what to do? He hated making up stories and all. He thought for a moment and still decided to use a ready-made one.

“Oh dear!” With a stiff face, he suddenly let out an exceedingly exaggerated and fake exclamation as he pointed to Zuo Shuming who was still in a daze, “Isn’t this the fellow Daoist Zuo who borrowed two pieces of spirit stones from me? Long time no see! Do you have money to pay me back now?”

Yu Luan: “…”

Everyone: “…”

What the hell? Chasing all the way here for two pieces of spirit stones, you must be kidding me!

( ̄△̄;)

Lonemoon: “…”

This definitely isn’t the son that he taught! Was it too late to cut off all ties now?

“Ah! Is that so?” Yet Zuo Shuming really subconsciously brought out four pieces of spirit stones and handed them over. “Thank you fellow Daoist!”

“You’re welcome!”

Wait! Why does this scene feel so familiar?

Zuo Shuming’s hand froze, he could not help but shoot his mouth off and asked, “May I know what is Supremacy’s Dao name?”

“Yi Qing!”

“…”

Again!

Zuo Shuming only felt the corner of his mouth twitched, his eyes instinctively searched around before he found a familiar figure crunching on a fruit behind Yi Qing.

“Hey! Two bucks!” Shen Ying greeted with a wave.

“…” And… and it really was for real!

He could not help but turn and looked towards the person beside him, Brother Lonemoon, are such methods of asking for travel expenses once you appear a tradition of your people?

Lonemoon silently looked away, don’t ask me, I don’t know them.

“Eh, this fellow Daoist…” Yi Qing turned towards Lonemoon and continued making up his excuse in all seriousness. “Aren’t you the one who loaned…”

“I dare you to try saying that I owe you money?” Before he could finish, Lonemoon directly retorted through a voice transmission.

Yi Qing froze, subconsciously grabbing his ingredients storage bag, the words that came out next took a forceful turn. “Loaned… to, me, a lot of spirit stones, Fellow Daoist Lonemoon?” Alright, he really didn’t remember how much food allowance Father Niu had given him.

“Supremacy Yi Qing, long time no see!” Lonemoon suppressed the restlessness at the bottom of his heart before smiling and continuing the conversation that the other party had messily made up. He turned towards Gui Yi Sect’s Sect Master Yu Luan. “Reporting to Sect Master, before I joined Gui Yi Sect, I was lucky enough to run into Supremacy Yi Qing. He did not have spirit stones with him them so I did him a small favor, I didn’t think I would have another chance to meet him again.”

He then turned to Zuo Shuming. “Turns out Brother Zuo was also acquainted with Supremacy before you joined the sect?”

“Ah?!” Zuo Shuming faltered and nodded subconsciously. “Yes!”

“Then we’re really fated!” He smiled. “Supremacy is really a considerate good person, turns out you had ten thousand spirit stones that I lend you on your mind all this time and specially came all the way to Gui Yi Sect to return them.” He specially emphasized on the words ‘ten thousand’ and stretched out his hand. Don’t even know how to be a show off, what use do I have raising you two, pay up your living expenses!

Yi Qing: “…”

Shen Ying: “…”

Beast! Not even sparing living expenses!
