~11 min read 2,001 words

"Ah!" At the moment of separating the bushes, a cry of surprise came from the young man's mouth, and at the same time, his body retreated several steps back, almost sitting on the ground.

This young man named Tu Meng had a face full of terror!

"What's going on?" The Canglu Tribe members, who had been focusing on everything, were startled, and some strong tribesmen immediately drew their swords, preparing to deal with some unexpected situation.

"Don't act rashly. Tu Meng, what happened?" Ying Lu was still clear-headed, seeing at a glance that the young man was completely fine, just frightened.

"Clan Leader, there is an Immortal Master inside, but he looks..."

"Hmph! What about how I look?"

Before the young man could finish speaking, the azure light in the bush flickered wildly a few times and suddenly disappeared. Then, after a cold snort, a figure walked out from inside with large strides.

Everyone, including the old man, was stunned and hurriedly stared over.

I saw that the person who appeared before them was a white-robed man in the appearance of a man. This person had an ordinary figure, and the style of the white robe was clearly that of an Immortal Master, but he had a strangely styled azure cloak on his head that covered his face, and he had several bulging bags at his waist, and a wooden box about a foot long on his back.

"I am Ying Lu, Clan Leader of the Canglu Tribe, paying respects to the Immortal Master! May I ask the Immortal Master's name?" As soon as Ying Lu saw this person appear, he immediately dismounted and bowed deeply to the white-robed man from afar, not daring to offend him in the slightest. Other tribesmen also dismounted and paid respects.

"Canglu Tribe? Never heard of it. My surname is Han. I was just cultivating techniques inside. What are you doing coming over?" The white-robed man glanced at Ying Lu and his group, and replied coldly.

"So it is Immortal Master Han. Just now, we truly didn't know you were cultivating inside, and we have offended you. I hope the Immortal Master will forgive us! May I ask which tribe the Immortal Master is enshrined by? Perhaps the old man knows your tribe," the old man saw that this Immortal Master didn't look like he was specifically targeting them, and his heart immediately relaxed.

"I just finished my apprenticeship not long ago and am not currently enshrined by any tribe," the white-robed man's eyes flickered, and he said indifferently.

"Ah! So the Immortal Master is a free man. Since the Immortal Master appeared here alone, you must also be going to the Holy Temple. The Opening Spirit Day, which comes once every twenty years, I'm sure Immortal Master Han definitely won't miss it," Ying Lu was moved in his heart when he heard that the other party was actually a free man, and his tone became even more respectful.

"That's right, I am indeed going to the Holy Temple. Are you paying tribute to the Holy Temple? But why is there no Immortal Master following you!" The white-robed man glanced at the carriages behind them, appearing somewhat interested.

"Our Canglu Tribe is just a small tribe and has not yet had an Immortal Master stationed here. So we only..." the old man explained respectfully. Seeing the other party's demeanor, he immediately judged that the other party's words about just finishing apprenticeship seemed to be true. Otherwise, how could he have such curious behavior.

Thinking of this, the thought that had just arisen in the old man's heart became intense.

"Since you were unintentional, this matter will be let go. You may leave!" The white-robed man hesitated for a while before waving his hand at them, looking like he wanted them to leave immediately.

Seeing the white-robed man let them go so easily, Ying Lu, who was originally afraid that the other party's identity was unknown and somewhat worried, immediately made up his mind.

He did not leave, but instead took a deep breath, suddenly smiled, and said to the white-robed man:

"Immortal Master, since you are also going to the Holy Temple, I wonder if you could temporarily accept the employment of our Canglu Tribe. As long as you accompany us to the Holy Temple, I am willing to pay twenty spirit stones to hire you for a trip."

"Hire me?" The white-robed man was stunned, appearing greatly surprised.

"That's right. Since the Immortal Master is also going to the Holy Temple, why not go with us? On this road, without an Immortal Master to hold the line, the old man is truly afraid that we won't be able to reach the Holy Temple safely. After all, there are quite a few dangers on the road," the old man said with a sincere look.

"Traveling with you mortals is a bit too slow! And only paying twenty spirit stones..." The white-robed man did not refuse immediately, but did not agree immediately either, appearing somewhat hesitant.

"As long as the Immortal Master agrees to this matter, I am willing to pay up to twenty-five spirit stones. I don't mean to be rude, Immortal Master Han, but our Canglu Tribe is truly not large, and this is the limit our tribe can pay," the old man said with a bitter smile.

"Twenty-five spirit stones is not a small amount. However, you don't even want to ask what tier of Immortal Master I am before offering this price. Perhaps I am just a low-tier Immortal Master at the second or third layer of Qi Refining and don't have the ability to protect your caravan," the white-robed man chuckled when he heard this number.

"Hehe! Immortal Master is joking. Although the old man doesn't have spiritual roots, I once participated in the Holy War. Just based on the spiritual light you emitted when cultivating just now, you definitely cannot be an Immortal Master at the second or third layer of Qi Refining," Ying Lu chuckled and said.

"Good! Since you have such sincerity, I will accompany you on a trip. However, for the spirit stones, I want half paid first, and the other half paid to me immediately upon arrival," the white-robed man did not consider for long, and after a moment of contemplation, he agreed.

"This is natural. The old man will pay the spirit stones to the Immortal Master immediately."

The old man was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately fumbled in his bosom, took out a small leather bag, counted out a dozen spirit stones in front of everyone, and handed them to the white-robed man straightforwardly.

After the white-robed man received the spirit stones, spiritual light flashed on his hand, and the spirit stones disappeared without a trace. This made the young men of the Canglu Tribe behind him let out a burst of exclamation.

"Why, have you never seen a storage bag?" The white-robed man's voice became surprised.

"Don't blame me, Immortal Master. These are all young people in the tribe who have never been in contact with Immortal Masters," Ying Lu said somewhat awkwardly.

"So that's how it is," the white-robed man nodded somewhat understandingly, then looked at the few carriages, appearing somewhat hesitant again.

It was the old man who had been in contact with many Immortal Masters before who immediately realized and turned to shout loudly:

"You few, quickly clear out the best carriage so Immortal Master Han can meditate and rest. Move quickly!"

Hearing the Clan Leader's words, the young men who were secretly happy because an Immortal Master had joined the team immediately acted, unloading all the cargo from one carriage and distributing it to the remaining carriages.

The white-robed man didn't stand on ceremony either. Once the carriage was packed, he said solemnly to the old man:

"I have troubled you. I will rest in the carriage. If there is anything, call me from outside. I have already achieved grain-free, so there is no need to disturb me during normal times."

"This is natural, the old man knows the Immortal Master's taboos," Ying Lu bowed slightly, saying with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, the white-robed man nodded, then walked toward the carriage with large strides. But after walking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head and said coldly to the young man named "Tu Meng" who was still somewhat dazed.

"You saw my face just now, right? I don't hope for this matter to be spread everywhere. You better behave yourself."

After the white-robed man said these few nonsensical words, he got into the carriage unhurriedly and let down the curtain, blocking everyone's sight.

Tu Meng's face turned deathly pale. Although the white-robed man had already entered the carriage, he still shook his head repeatedly, saying he didn't dare.

"Alright, since our caravan has a Divine Master, everyone can rest assured and continue on the road. Everyone mount your horses, set off immediately. Ying Shan! Follow beside the Immortal Master's carriage, and if the Immortal Master has any instructions, do them in time, and you must serve the Immortal Master well!" The old man greeted everyone to set off again, and turned to the girl beside him with deep meaning.

When the girl heard this, she knew the elder's intention and immediately agreed happily. After mounting her horse, she walked toward the back.

The remaining young men drove the caravan forward while whispering and discussing incessantly, looking back from time to time.

Although they had hired a few Immortal Masters in the tribe before, they were all people who left immediately after handling matters, so they had no opportunity to see them. Now, being in such close contact, they were naturally extremely curious.

And in the carriage that was covered tightly by the curtain, the white-robed man was sitting cross-legged in the carriage, his body motionless.

"Han kid, it seems your situation when cultivating just now scared that little Tuluo fellow quite a bit! I don't know if he will have nightmares for a few days! Hehe..." An old, somewhat gloating voice sounded in the white-robed man's spiritual sense.

"Senior, is this Five Ghosts Locking God Great Law you taught truly effective? I don't want to become a monster that only knows how to kill before finding a way to remove the demonic energy," the white-robed man asked indifferently in his spiritual sense.

"You can rest assured. Although this secret technique was created by me to control the cultivation technique deviation of the Great Expansion Technique, it is also effective against demonic energy. It's just that I must remind you again: since you used demonic energy as a guide to attract the Five Ghosts to possess you, not only is the demonic energy restricted, but your cultivation base has also been sealed by eight or nine tenths. Your current cultivation base is at most at the level of the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. You cannot recklessly use that magic power. Don't forget this point!" The old voice said lazily.

"I don't need Senior to tell me this; I know it myself. I didn't expect the backlash of the demonic energy to occur so much faster than expected. And the momentum was fierce, far exceeding what you said," the white-robed man's voice sank, somewhat helplessly.

"Hmph! It's not that my prediction was wrong; it's because you fought fiercely with other cultivators before the demonic energy was removed, and even suffered heavy injuries, almost losing your life. The demonic energy naturally backlashed early. As for the demonic energy being fierce, you don't look at how deep the demonic energy on your body has become. Naturally, the backlash is far beyond ordinary people. If it weren't for needing you to help me refine puppets, I wouldn't bother with you!" That voice snorted heavily, then said leisurely.

The two didn't need to be said; they were naturally Han Li and Great Expansion Divine Monarch.
