No time to waste—let’s set off early.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Second Uncle’s face lit up with anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That old bastard probably never expected me to show up so soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing hesitated, then said, “Uncle, this time, I’d like to bring Lu Yaoyao with us. After all, the three of us came from Taiqingmen together. Leaving her alone here just feels wrong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Zhou Qing’s embarrassed expression, Second Uncle chuckled. “When I first brought you to the academy to study arrays and memorize texts, do you know why I let those two come along?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?” Yan Xiao Hu leaned forward, curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle suddenly pulled out his tobacco pipe and tapped him on the head. “Because he’s loyal and righteous—that’s exactly why I admire him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xiao Hu rubbed his forehead, grimacing in mock pain, while Zhou Qing looked sheepish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he quickly recovered and said, “Thank you, Uncle!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, he pulled out his identity token and sent a message to Lu Yaoyao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, Lu Yaoyao arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Greetings, Uncle!” Lu Yaoyao bowed respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle was about to speak when he noticed Lu Yuanzhi following closely behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone inside froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanzhi’s expression was cold and composed as she slowly scanned the group, then fixed her gaze on Second Uncle and bowed deeply. “Greetings, Elder.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes turned to Lu Yaoyao, filled with confusion and inquiry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yaoyao looked flustered and shook her head frantically, signaling she hadn’t said a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanzhi spoke up: “This has nothing to do with Yaoyao. Ever since you first came to the academy, I sensed your extraordinary nature. But seeing your devotion to arrays and your respect for Master Lin, I chose not to expose you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle was genuinely surprised, then studied Lu Yuanzhi anew, his eyes sharpening with curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked, “Nascent Soul enhancement or Soul Transformation realm insight?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanzhi answered calmly, neither humble nor arrogant: “Both, perhaps. I attained insight through Nascent Soul enhancement.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I always thought only Zhou Qing could see through me—but today, another has joined the list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanzhi continued earnestly: “Yaoyao has made up her mind to go to the border. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t stop her. She even abandoned the ten-year cultivation plan I meticulously crafted for her to reach Nascent Soul late stage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, Lu Yuanzhi let out a faint sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, after much thought, I’ve decided to go with her,” Lu Yuanzhi paused. “First, I can look out for her on the journey; second, I can guide her directly, ensuring she doesn’t fall behind in her cultivation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, Lu Yuanzhi bowed slightly, humbly adding: “Elder, as a Cutting Spirit cultivator, your realm is unfathomable. Even a single word of guidance from you would far surpass anything I could offer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But Yaoyao’s physique is unique. Her cultivation method and path align closely with my own experience—I may be able to provide her with more targeted assistance in this regard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Lu Yuanzhi’s stubborn yet heartfelt expression, Lu Yaoyao felt a storm of emotions inside—deep shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Lu had always been kind to her, but one cannot have both fish and bear paws—she had to follow her father to the border to investigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want to miss this chance, yet she didn’t want to drag Master Lu into danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master Lu…” Lu Yaoyao whispered, her voice trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing and Yan Xiao Hu stared at the icy beauty before them. Though they knew Master Lu cared for Lu Yaoyao, they hadn’t expected it to run this deep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know nothing of Elder’s affairs and will not interfere in any matter,” Lu Yuanzhi bowed again, respectfully. “Please allow me to accompany her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a tutor of the Baiyu Taixu Academy, she had suppressed her own advancement, aided several Cutting Spirit cultivators, and maintained close ties with the imperial capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This piqued Second Uncle’s interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, come along then!” Second Uncle said after a pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi’s usually frosty face broke into a faint smile. She bowed again, sincerely: “Thank you, Elder!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard a few years ago, two royal youths visited you, and you were displeased. But I’m about to meet Xuan Yuan Shuo—surely you’re certain this is safe?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle suddenly remembered something and asked bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanzhi’s expression flickered, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. After a moment’s hesitation, she nodded slightly. “I know how to alter my appearance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems they’ve reached the point of no return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This border journey will likely be far more eventful than I imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?” Second Uncle’s gaze suddenly snapped toward the cave entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s going on today?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhou Qing, are you in?” The familiar voice of Lin Daochen rang clearly from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing instinctively glanced at Second Uncle; seeing him nod, he raised his hand and dispelled the cave’s barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen stepped in, about to speak, then paused, startled by the silent, staring group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze quickly settled on Si Yunya. “I went to your quarters looking for you and found you gone—didn’t expect to find you here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle hurried forward, bowing respectfully. “Master, what brings you here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen nodded slightly and explained his plan to take them to the border.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone exchanged glances; Yan Xiao Hu nearly burst out laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What are the odds?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their expressions, Lin Daochen assumed they were hesitant. “I know this is a lot to ask—if you’re unwilling, I won’t force you—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No no, we’re willing! Of course we’re willing!” Second Uncle cut in quickly, afraid Lin Daochen might change his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguised as the Master’s favored student, traveling to the border, with his own appearance altered—his mind already conjured a delightful encounter with Xuan Yuan Shuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Second Uncle’s eagerness, Lin Daochen turned his gaze to Zhou Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing stepped forward immediately. “I wish to go as well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Master has advanced to Third-Rank Array Master, and there are two others at the border, if I can get even a little guidance from them, I’ll surely advance to Second-Rank Array Master without difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We want to go too!” Lu Yaoyao and Yan Xiao Hu chimed in together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen didn’t know Yan Xiao Hu, but Lu Yaoyao was Lu Yuanzhi’s student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to Lu Yuanzhi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To his surprise, Lu Yuanzhi spoke coldly: “I’m going too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen: “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haomiao Prefecture!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as bustling as ever. Lin Daochen walked through the streets, his gaze sweeping over everything around him, feeling as if time had collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since entering the academy and devoting himself to arrays and forbidden seals, he’d rarely stepped outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, who exactly are we visiting?” Zhou Qing asked curiously behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen kept walking, turned his head slightly, stroked his beard, and smiled warmly. “The Academy Head.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Academy Head?” Second Uncle, who had been lounging, couldn’t help but exclaim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was too loud, drawing glances from passersby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen stopped and turned, puzzled. “What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle waved his hands. “Nothing, nothing—just surprised.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing hadn’t expected the mysterious Cutting Spirit Academy Head Second Uncle spoke of to be here in Haomiao Prefecture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen continued walking. “If not for the Academy Head’s rescue, I would have perished long ago. How could I have reached this point? Now that I’ve advanced to Third-Rank, I owe him a proper thanks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him, Second Uncle nodded vigorously. Under Zhou Qing’s gaze, his hands rapidly formed seals, imprinting countless markings into his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the obscure seals merged into him, a steady aura spread from his body—his cultivation base stabilized firmly at Nascent Soul early stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after thinking it over, he deemed it too fake and raised his cultivation to Soul Transformation early stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing considered using the Void Illusion Form to conceal himself, but then remembered he’d be facing a Cutting Spirit Elder—he decided against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even Fu Kui hadn’t been fooled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His little tricks would be useless before such a master—better to avoid looking foolish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re my favored students, so I wanted to bring you here to meet him. If I’m gone one day, and you ever need help, perhaps the Academy Head might lend a hand out of old acquaintance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen’s voice carried an unintentional note of weariness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lifespan of a Soul Transformation cultivator totals three thousand years—this span begins the moment one attains realm insight and ends at Soul Transformation peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he’s now gathered three thousand spirit seals and reached peak cultivation, further advancement to Cutting Spirit is impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this Fourth-Rank spiritual nation, Soul Transformation peak cultivators are as countless as fish crossing a river, yet Cutting Spirit masters number barely a dozen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he has no more than a few centuries left to live.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Zhou Qing and Si Yunya are still young—they have bright futures ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, both fell silent, their hearts heavy with complex emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trio walked through bustling main streets, then turned into quiet alleys—Zhou Qing grew increasingly familiar with the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here we are!” Lin Daochen suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on an unassuming little general store ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing looked up—and froze in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No way!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because what met his eyes right now was not elsewhere—it was Old Weng’s general store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re here!” The next moment, Old Weng’s familiar voice indeed came from inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen’s expression turned solemn; he bowed deeply, then stepped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing’s heart tightened; he quickly turned to look at Second Uncle, wanting to whisper something—but saw him calm and composed, following right behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Zhou Qing had no choice but to follow, his heart uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the store, the furnishings remained exactly as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Weng sat as usual on the worn bamboo chair, swaying slightly, emitting a faint creak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the small table beside him sat an old teapot, still steaming gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dean!” Lin Daochen spoke softly, full of respect, upon seeing Old Weng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Zhou Qing’s heart leapt—he stared again at Old Weng. Though he had prepared himself, he still could not believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Weng opened his eyes, nodded slightly at Lin Daochen, a faint smile on his lips, then said: “Congratulations. You’ve finally taken this step.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen bowed deeply. “Thank you, Dean. I’ve walked this path too long—it’s fulfilled a wish I’ve carried for years. I’ve come now to bid you farewell.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Lin Daochen recounted the matters concerning the Governor of Longyuan Prefecture, Zhong Yao, and Prince Xuan Yuan Shuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Weng listened silently, then nodded. “As a subject of the Shengwu Empire, in matters concerning the safety of our homeland, you have no choice but to act. But the border is perilous—be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen replied respectfully: “Yes, Dean. By the way, I’ve brought two others with me—they’re also from the Academy…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhou Qing! Long time no see—I didn’t expect you to break through to Soul Transformation so fast!” Before Lin Daochen could finish, Old Weng suddenly smiled and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen froze slightly, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew each other?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing stepped forward with a wry smile and bowed respectfully. “I never imagined you were the Dean.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling the past nine months, Zhou Qing felt a touch of embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder he could never sense Old Weng’s cultivation base back then—he’d thought the old man was just an ordinary elder. He was actually a Cutting-Spirit cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Weng waved his hand, smiling. “Dean or not—it’s just a title. You’re truly impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Dean, for your praise!” Zhou Qing said gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing was Soul Transformation—Lin Daochen could clearly sense it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, many in the Academy concealed their cultivation base for various reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some to study better, others to curry favor and seek more opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t surprising to Lin Daochen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he was surprised: the Dean seemed unusually familiar with Zhou Qing. And the Dean rarely praised anyone—yet here he was, praising Zhou Qing so openly. It left him curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Lin Daochen pulled Second Uncle forward and introduced him: “Dean, this is Si Yunya. He has great talent in array formation—an uncommon talent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Greetings, Dean!” Second Uncle bowed respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Weng nodded slightly, his gaze settling on Second Uncle. “I’ve seen you a few times. Zhou Qing broke through to Soul Transformation so quickly thanks to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle’s head snapped up, shock flashing in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing’s heart surged with turmoil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen was even more confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did the Dean know both these juniors?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Old Weng said no more. He closed his eyes again, yawned lightly, and said slowly: “Enough. I’m tired. Finish your business and return soon—that place isn’t for staying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his purpose achieved, Lin Daochen bowed again, then led Zhou Qing and Second Uncle away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After turning several main streets, Second Uncle suddenly stopped walking, silent until now. “Master, I want to buy a few things nearby. You two go back to the Academy—I’ll return soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen nodded. “Be careful. Hurry back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing stared at Second Uncle, thoughtful—but said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dean’s cultivation base was certainly higher than Second Uncle’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over these years, traveling among major sects across the provinces, he’d never sensed anyone secretly watching him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhou Qing returned to his cave dwelling, Second Uncle was already waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry—it’s fine. He only followed you for the first two months. He probably wasn’t there when you broke through to Soul Transformation,” Second Uncle said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing’s Four Flowers at the Crown was too unusual—the fewer who knew, the safer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Zhou Qing exhaled deeply, his expression relaxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tell me everything about your dealings with him,” Second Uncle said after a pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing gathered his thoughts and recounted every detail of the nine months in Haomiao Prefecture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle listened, then understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued: “His cultivation base is higher than mine—and he doesn’t belong to our fourth-tier cultivation country.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing was startled. “An outsider from another realm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle nodded. “I sensed the aura of the Five Stages of Celestial Decay on him—but not quite. I think he’s injured, hiding here to heal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle patted Zhou Qing’s shoulder. “Don’t worry—for now, he seems to have no ill intent. But hearts are hard to fathom—we must remain cautious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing deeply agreed, nodding seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the old hen flapped in from outside, Yan Xiaohu chasing after her: “Hey, you’re back? I’ve got everything ready—when do we leave?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing smiled, crouched down, and the old hen immediately flapped onto his lap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gently stroked her feathers—so soft, smooth, high-quality. Clearly, the mid-grade spirit stones had worked well these past years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his supply of spirit stones was nearly gone. It’s easy to go from frugal to lavish, hard to go back. He wondered if she’d still adapt to low-grade stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait for Master’s order,” Zhou Qing said, pulling out his identity token to contact Lu Yaoyao and tell her to prepare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle stared at the hen. “I remember you bought this chicken at the Five Sects Treasure Exchange, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing stroked its head, smiling. “Yeah. After buying it, I opened a blind box at your place.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle nodded seriously. “This is a mutated Egg-Chicken. Watch it closely—don’t let anyone catch and eat it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing laughed. “Absolutely not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now that he thought about it—he hadn’t seen it lay a spirit egg in years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief hesitation, he ran another appraisal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Egg-Chicken: A rare, over-mutated spirit chicken with powerful digestion. Over these years, as it absorbed more spirit stones, it’s undergoing a second mutation—most array seals can no longer contain it.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Zhou Qing’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled—years ago, he’d noticed it slipping out of the courtyard, ignoring the barriers. Now he knew why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once you advance to Second-Rank Array Master, let’s return to Mount Taiqingmen. There’s something valuable in the Red Pagoda Mountain—bring it along and see!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Uncle whispered to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing nodded. He needed to run simulations soon—to ensure his true body wouldn’t face grave danger when entering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Today’s posts are refreshing…】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【A new post has been added to the Odd Post Archive—check promptly.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the system’s alert chimed in his mind—Zhou Qing was thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the last refresh yielded two 【Sudden Enlightenment Posts】, the random posts had gone silent—true to their nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately focused inward to check the panel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him appeared a black post, reeking of decay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Corpse-Touch Post: By touching a corpse, you may trigger the deceased’s final wish.
