Chapter 357: I Urge You to Stay TrueHumph, think a Zhuo Qingyao can influence this Master’s choice? What a joke!
Wait and see! See how she will call me Master with proper respect, how she will make noodles when I tell her too, see how she will drum my legs at my command, see how she will knead my shoulder at my whim!
What’s wrong with bringing two girls home?
I refuse to believe she’ll try anything with them!
Can’t a glorious Immortal Master such as I have two ladies attending me?
Chen Ming smiled, “For the sake of their well being, I urge you to stay true.”
The Earth Immortal was in a daze, oblivious to his meaning.
Ling Xian was blunt, “Master means, let it go!”
Li Suyi said, “Head senior sister once said, How can the sacred Yan Mountain have flossies around?”
The Earth Immortal withdrew in resentment.
Myself still wants noodles. Terribly sorry!
Getting his belly filled and excusing himself, Chen Ming went on a month-long journey to Jade Lake.
The closer he got, the more precise he was of that Commanding Star’s location.
Chen Ming was now strolling on Jade Lake’s River Office, extravagant and flourishing even when compared to Heavenly Court’s River Office.
It was a fact, since the last time he was there the place was in high alert for the capture of Bu Liuhen. When did they have the time to flourish?
As for the second time, Uh, Shan Liuyun was left hanging…
Chen Ming found only male immortals around, with no woman in sight.
Going by the Galaxy’s depiction of Jade Lake, it should have many high-cla.s.s women but most were still men. The reason behind those women laid in the gender of the ruler, an Empress.
Chen Ming ignored the gossips. He was only drawn to that dimmed Commanding Star. It had to be sealed and, in the Jade Lake’s River Office, the only place that did the sealing was a prison.
As for other locations, he didn’t believe there were any that could hold a man fated with the Commanding Star.
Taking to his crow form, he flew to a black mountain outside a River Office’s large city. Pa.s.sing through a ten li long ravine, he saw two Earth Immortals standing guard outside a black iron gate.
Chen Ming perched on a rock, eyeing the two. This had to be Jade Lake’s prison. He wasn’t interested in whether this place held or not vile and ruthless prisoners. But it had a high chance to hold a general.
Chen Ming wanted to sneak in first, to see what kind of thing was in there and if it was worthy of his great self’s intervention.
If he used Bu Liuhen, the rescue would have proven pointless perhaps. Or maybe, even if rescued the person might not be willing to serve as a Blade. That’s a wasted effort, and I can’t have that for as long as I live.
He found a crack in the door, En, mosquito-sized. Well how about that, I also happen to have a mosquito cultivation method. Yep, everything is possible in this great wide world.
If a fiend race called life-stealing mosquito stung you, you’d be left skin and bones!
Chen Ming was just about to get to work when a magnificent and imposing in pressure immortal landed. The guards bowed, “Greetings warden!”
The warden said, “Be vigilant. This prison has heinous criminals and nothing must go wrong!”
“Rest a.s.sured warden, not even a mosquito will get past us!”
Warden nodded pleased and left.
Chen Ming’s thoughts on this, Who are you kidding? I don’t believe a mosquito can’t slip by.
That moment an immortal power drifted about, shacking everything. Did they saw me?
He saw a lightning flash and a guard laughed hard, “There! I killed a mosquito with my immortal art!”
“Great work, brother!”
“Since we said we won’t let a mosquito in then that’s what we’ll do!”
“Brother, that lightning drawing art is wonderfully mastered, and perfect for the job!
“You’re too kind, elder brother must be joking!”
…
These bros are horrible, using an immortal art on a mosquito?
Nevermind then. Since the plan is botched I’ll need to think of a better way in.
Fast-forward a day, Chen Ming was found in a tavern watching a guard entering his room, the same one who killed a mosquito.
Shen Duan saw Chen Ming sporting a pair of horns, sideburns and mean fiend energy to spare, “What fiend are you? Why did you call me?”
Chen Ming sat at a table but didn’t bother with pouring him a drink, “I’ve long yearned for Jade Lake. My life long dream has been to go to Jade Lake’s prison and be its guard. But because of my fiendish nature, the warden denied my application. That is why I want to go to prison for a few days and have a taste of standing guard first.”
Shen Duan watched him skeptical, You longed for prison your whole life? Can’t you think of a better lie?
Shen Duan said, “You, a Dao Comprehending realm cultivator, want to guard the prison gate? Do you have any idea of the implications?”
Chen Ming said, “I can kill mosquitos with one hand.”
Shen Duan said, “Sss…”
Shen Duan also said, “This is a serious matter. Even if you beg me I can’t help you.”
Chen Ming said, “One earth Spirit Vein for three days. I want to take your place as a guard for this time.”
Shen Duan was swift in pointing his saber at Chen Ming, “You have ill thoughts and want to infiltrate the prison. What are you trying to pull? You think I won’t call my team and have you arrested?”
Chen Ming glanced at the saber touching his neck, smiled and lifted three fingers, “Three earth Spirit Veins!”
Shen Duan grew irate, “I’m no degenerate and corrupt sc.u.m! What’s your plan? Who are your accomplices?”
Chen Ming left a finger up, “One Heaven Spirit Vein.”
Shen Duan kicked the door and shouted, “Owner, go and tell the Heavenly Army patrol to come!”
The team was at the tavern’s door in moments, “What happened?”
Chen Ming grinned, “Three Heaven Spirit Veins!”
The patrol entered Chen Ming’s room and the leader spoke, “So it was sir Shen. Did something happen?”
