Chapter 34: Flower and Bird Market

"It is the Immortal Master!"

"Quick, quick, everyone kneel and thank the Immortal Master!"

The battle came quickly and ended even faster.

The villagers only felt a few booming sounds, and the previously overbearing Cultivator masters were all sprawled on the ground?

Even those awe-inspiring giant wolves scattered and fled in an instant.

After a few village elders who had seen a bit of the world regained their senses, they hurriedly shouted and directed the villagers to kneel in unison and kowtow to Su Ping.

Su Ping picked up one black-robed Cultivator with a broken leg and another who was on the verge of death, then looked at the villagers who were watching him cautiously.

Su Ping spoke and instructed the village elder to have the villagers wait for people from the City Lord Mansion to come and handle the aftermath.

He then carried the captives and returned the way he came.

Watching Su Ping's back disappear on the horizon.

Only then did the villagers dare to slowly stand up and begin to discuss it carefully.

A village elder recognized that Su Ping was the Inspector of Jinque City; he had even taken the young people to pay their respects to him some time ago.

"We have encountered a good Immortal Master!"

The oldest village elder, leaning on his cane, looked full of relief:

"In all my years, this is the first time I have seen an Immortal Master from the city willing to come out to wipe out those evil Cultivator masters!"

"I want to write a letter to Er Ya and have her persuade her husband's family to move back."

"This world is becoming more and more unsettled; only under the jurisdiction of an Immortal Master who pities us can we be secure!"

Su Ping returned to Linyue Villa and began to interrogate the two black-robed Cultivators.

The process went smoothly; he didn't even need to test the various tortures he had seen on the internet.

After just a bit of intimidation, the two black-robed Cultivators, having had their courage shattered, revealed all the information they knew.

These two were Loose Cultivators from Jintu City, several major cities away.

Because they were doing shady business, the two had specifically traveled far from their hometown to work.

They came here this time because they had accepted a large order, requiring at least two thousand living people to be taken away in a short time!

The reason they chose that village this time was nothing special; they just took a fancy to the fact that it was near a large river, allowing them to transport all the villagers away at once by boat.

Additionally, from what the two confessed, the buyer did not seem to be looking to perform a Blood Sacrifice to gain a Foundation Establishment opportunity, but was an evil Cultivator practicing soul refinement, seemingly in need of a large number of living people to refine a Dharma Artifact.

After Su Ping finished questioning them, he struck out two palms, ending the sinful lives of these two Robber Cultivators.

Then, Su Ping did not continue to let his sense of justice explode and run off to find trouble with the evil Cultivator refining the Dharma Artifact.

Instead, he notified the Immortal Sect of the matter in minute detail through the Inspector's channels.

Not long after, Su Ping received a reply through his Wooden Tablet: "Understood!" Then, that same afternoon, a Fire Bird with a wingspan of over ten meters and feathers like burning flames descended from the sky. After speaking in human language to ask Su Ping a few questions, it took the Jade Slip Su Ping had submitted with its front claws, soared back into the sky, and flew back to the Immortal Sect.

"To think they actually mobilized the Fire Bird clan raised by the Immortal Sect Elders to deliver and receive messages."

"The Immortal Sect is also on high alert."

Su Ping watched the fire bird, which was at least equivalent to the Qi Refining Late Stage in cultivation and even more adept at long-distance flight, depart.

He then left Linyue Villa once again.

Only this time, the people of Linyue Villa and Jinque City no longer thought that the Inspector was going Fishing or slacking off again.

Instead, because of this incident, they felt that this Inspector was a rare, responsible Inspector! He must be patrolling the territory of Jinque City now; otherwise, how could he have discovered the traces of those evil Cultivators before? And saved at least one village of villagers?

To have such an Immortal Master is truly the good fortune of Jinque City!

One must know that for the vast majority of Inspectors, as long as they can ensure that no major chaos occurs within a hundred miles of their major city, they are considered qualified.

If a few villages are lost or a few thousand people go missing,

there is no need to worry about being blamed by the Immortal Sect for it.

As for performing meritorious deeds to climb the ranks... among the Cultivators who have been demoted to serve as Inspectors, how many still have that ambition? Most mortals can only rely on themselves in the end, yet in this world, the only way out for the vast majority of mortals is to cultivate immortality! Su Ping did not know that his reputation had suddenly improved among the lower and middle classes.

He found a mountain cave and activated a Return to City Talisman to return to Water Blue Star. He adapted slightly to the spiritless environment of Water Blue Star.

Su Ping first went to the Reservoir Fishing Spot and used up the 60 refreshed Fishing attempts.

He didn't get any Green Spirit Fish this time, but it did add 40 Small Green Fish and 20 Big Green Fish to his warehouse.

Su Ping looked at the information stream:

【Current Fishing Level: Level 3 (70/1000)】

"Adding the 10 attempts left over after upgrading Linyue Lake, I have 70 experience points."

"One step closer to Level 5!"

"At Level 5, I should be able to unlock new exchange items, among which will be the Fishing Compass, a tool to assist in finding fishing spots."

"I won't have to bump into luck like a headless fly like I do now."

"Whew!"

"It seems I haven't gone out for a stroll in a while."

"Let me steal a moment of leisure tonight."

Su Ping returned to the city from the reservoir, looked at the crescent moon in the sky, and took out his phone to check the time.

He changed into a set of ordinary Daoist robes and used the Bone-Shrinking Technique to change his physique and slightly alter his facial features.

Then he plunged into the hottest night market to start eating skewers.

Su Ping was using the phone of the little Daoist Zhou Xuan.

Quick payment was enabled on it, and the little Daoist Zhou Xuan had thoughtfully deposited tens of thousands in pocket money.

Su Ping had an amazing appetite, but he didn't have to worry about the embarrassment of not having money to pay the bill.

Some people in the night market noticed Su Ping's uniqueness, but at most they just took a few extra looks; it didn't stir up any crowds.

After all, people are suffering from aesthetic fatigue due to the information bombardment of those wearing strange clothes nowadays.

Unless it is some big celebrity, otherwise in others' eyes, this Daoist is likely just another internet influencer from who knows where.

Although his temperament really does look very good.

Drinking and eating skewers, experiencing the hundred flavors of the human world.

It was not until the sky was faintly bright that Su Ping walked out of a 24-hour wonton shop.

He felt that he was about eighty percent full.

"Objectively speaking, snacks now have more variety and strange flavors than before."

"Truthfully, the overall taste has its pros and cons, with slight improvements now."

"It's just hard to say how much of that is thanks to new seasonings."

Su Ping specifically returned to East King Temple to tidy up a bit.

Then he headed straight for the largest flower and bird market in the DC District.

He had bought quite a few beast-taming Spirit Talismans at the Hundred Treasures Market.

It is not convenient to go to other Markets in the Cultivation World to find those spiritual mortal beasts right now.

Yet there are no such restrictions on Water Blue Star.

Furthermore, judging from the mouse, the proportion of animals with spirituality in his hometown is far greater than that of mortal beasts in the Cultivation World.

The main shoppers at the flower and bird market have always been middle-aged and elderly people.

Therefore, the market opens very early.

At a time when many young people are still fast asleep, the middle-aged and elderly have already eaten breakfast, finished their morning exercises, and are carrying birdcages with their hands behind their backs to start strolling through the morning market.

Su Ping walked among them; he was not the youngest, but he was the one with the most temperament.
