Chapter 422 Your Master Has Come to Pick You Up
On this day, Feng Yu was busy in his shop when he suddenly felt a stirring in his consciousness.
It was Zhong Lingxin who contacted him!
Feng Yu looked up in surprise and was about to go out to greet him.
Zhong Lingxin's voice echoed in her mind again: "Backyard."
Feng Yu suppressed his wildly beating heart and bowed to the middle-aged male immortal in front of him: "Fellow Daoist, you've arrived. The goods are ready in the backyard. Please come in."
Zhong Lingxin gestured for someone to lead the way, then strolled leisurely into the shop's backyard.
Feng Yu raised his hand, closed the shop door, and accompanied Zhong Lingxin into the backyard.
In the backyard, Feng Yu was filled with mixed emotions of joy and sorrow, and for a moment he didn't know how to greet Zhong Lingxin.
He is Zhong Lingxin's uncle by title, and now he is also Zhong Lingxin's contracted servant.
This...this...this...this...this...
Zhong Lingxin smiled, sealed off the courtyard with a divine sense, and bowed to Feng Yu, saying, "Uncle Feng, you've suffered so much these past years!"
With tears in his eyes, Feng Yu hurriedly said, "I'm not wronged, I'm not wronged. It's good to be alive."
Soon, Zhong Lingxin brought out a tea table and tea set, and invited Feng Yu to sit down, drink tea, and talk.
As soon as Feng Yu sat down, he hurriedly asked Zhong Lingxin, "I heard you went to the Middle Realm. Did you find your Aunt Yu?"
Zhong Lingxin poured more water from the kettle and nodded happily, saying, "I found her. Aunt Yu is doing well; she's already at the Immortal King Realm. She was overjoyed to see me back. She wants you to come back to the Middle Realm with me."
Feng Yu nodded frantically.
He had wanted to find Yu Wuqing for a long time.
Zhong Lingxin laughed and said, "You and Aunt Yu are really something. Back in the Immortal Spirit Continent, you two were only slightly better than strangers, but now that you're in the Immortal Realm, you're even better than you were on the Immortal Spirit Continent."
Feng Yu drank a cup of tea and laughed, "Your Aunt Yu is very proud."
She disdains telling lies.
She said that if she asked you to pick her up, it must mean she misses me.
Otherwise, given her personality, she probably wouldn't even bother mentioning me.
It's really rare; I didn't warm her up when we were in the Immortal Spirit Continent.
Once she arrived in the celestial realm, she suddenly remembered all the good things about me.
Zhong Lingxin smiled: "After Aunt Yu and my master ascended to heaven, they didn't have a good time at first. Aunt Yu was almost forcibly taken by a shameless guy to be his concubine."
Fortunately, my master saved her.
Then, with bounties on their heads in the Southern Realm, they could no longer stay there and had no choice but to risk going to the Middle Realm.
When I found them, they were hiding in the Imperial Academy in the Middle Realm.
One studied formations, and the other studied talismans.
Later, the Imperial Capital Academy was destroyed by the treacherous Emperor Yiren himself.
After the three of us escaped, we went to Xingye City and became rebel kings.
Before I arrived, my master had just comprehended a ninth-grade formation and was probably in seclusion at the Immortal Emperor realm.
Aunt Yu will have to stay and command those celestial soldiers.
Oh, by the way, we're already little rebel kings with over a hundred immortal cities.
Feng Yu was thrilled to hear this and wished he could go to the Middle Realm immediately.
However, he first told Zhong Lingxin about the situation in the Southern Border: "The Southern Border is recruiting soldiers everywhere now. It's called recruitment, but it's actually conscription and robbing soldiers."
However, our Tungsten Origin City has scarce immortal energy, and the immortals generally have low cultivation levels. Therefore, we have not recruited soldiers on a large scale in Tungsten Origin City, nor in the nearby immortal cities.
I heard that we're going to fight in the Middle Realm, and it's very likely that we'll first have to fight in the Void. At the very least, we'll need to be at the Luo Tian Shang Xian stage.
Haha, I was low-ranking and escaped conscription.
Ever since I learned it was you, I've been thinking about when you might return. As a mere celestial being, I have limited information to gather, so I've been keeping an eye on Ascension City.
In recent years, no cultivators have ascended to immortality on our Immortal Spirit Continent.
Other interfaces have seen significant improvements.
A steward from the royal family of Feisheng City partnered with me to start a business of contracted immortal slaves.
The steward of the Wang family was not of high rank; he only dared to give me those contracts that had been sitting for two or three days.
I have made contracts with hundreds of people and scattered them across various immortal cities to open shops.
I did not mistreat them. Once they reached a high level, they could break the contract and leave on their own.
However, in just one or two hundred years, no one has surpassed me, a celestial being.
Zhong Lingxin nodded. Back then, the Wang family forced her to flee like a stray dog.
She was determined to avenge this.
Moreover, she was afraid that the Wang family would contract with the cultivators of the Immortal Spirit Continent again.
What if she forms a contract with her disciple, as well as with her Qingyun Sect cultivators and her Zhong family?
She was so regretful she wanted to bang her head against the wall.
By now, she has been ascended for six or seven hundred years, and it's about time that Long Xinglan and Long Ling'er also ascended.
This return to the Southern Boundary to take control of Ascension City was originally part of Zhong Lingxin's plan.
Now, she hears that Feng Yu is getting close to a steward from the Wang family, and she's thinking of using that steward to take over the city lord's mansion in Feisheng City.
Feng Yu quickly understood Zhong Lingxin's thoughts.
He was also an immortal who ascended from the Immortal Spirit Continent, and was immediately sold through a contract upon ascension, suffering humiliation for a period of time. Naturally, he did not want the ascended immortals of the Immortal Spirit Continent to suffer such humiliation again.
Soon, Zhong Lingxin and Feng Yu had finalized their action plan.
Feng Yu first took Zhong Lingxin to Flying Ascension City to see Wang Yuantao.
Next, Zhong Lingxin replaced Wang Yuantao with a puppet, leaving only his aura and memories on the puppet.
With Zhong Chun's current rank as a Divine Artifact Master, the puppets he creates are extremely difficult for others to detect.
Next, we'll replace the city lord and the immortals who manage the Ascension Pool with puppets.
Finally, just to be on the safe side, Zhong Lingxin went to the Wang family's territory through the city lord and replaced several high-ranking immortals and the Wang family patriarch with puppets made by Zhong Chun.
He wanted to completely take control of the Wang family and Ascension City.
In retrospect, it was because the Wang family had committed too many evil deeds over the years, constantly trying to find ways to contract with immortals and ascend to heaven, that they finally attracted the evil spirit Zhong Lingxin, who directly wiped out the Wang family's high-end combat force.
Things are progressing extremely smoothly.
The small Ascension City, a place with scarce immortal energy, did not attract the attention of the powerful beings in the immortal realm.
Just after Zhong Lingxin replaced the immortal in the Ascension Pool with a puppet, Long Xinglan ascended to immortality.
Zhong Lingxin sat in the small house in the Ascension Pool, waiting for Long Xinglan to come out after soaking for eight days.
Long Xinglan remained cautious after emerging from the confinement.
He had heard from the Celestial Spirit Heavenly Dao that the Celestial Realm was in chaos, and that many newly ascended immortals were forced into enslavement through contracts.
He ascended to this heaven to find a master, not to become someone else's celestial servant.
Therefore, Long Xinglan tried his best to use the immortal water in the Ascension Pool to temper his body, until he was covered in blood and gore, and then pretended to be unconscious, intending to get through the period when he had to tell the truth.
Zhong Lingxin looked at Long Xinglan and the dragon scales that occasionally appeared on his body, and called softly, "Xinglan, Long Xinglan, disciple, get up and have some tea."
Long Xinglan thought he was hallucinating.
After listening to it three times in a row, he had to believe that the immortals in the celestial realm were indeed powerful. They even knew that he wanted to come up to find his master and gave him the most realistic illusion.
Zhong Lingxin smiled, grabbed him, flicked a healing pill into his mouth, and said with a smile, "Your master has come to pick you up!"
