Jidao Wusheng: I am invincible in my flesh and tear the weirdness apart with my bare hands

"Ok?"

Wei Chongqian frowned slightly.

What on earth is going on here, making such a big commotion?

"Help me! Steward Wei, help me!"

Then a startled voice came from next door.

Wei Chongqian rushed over, his face immediately turning extremely ugly, and his divine sense frantically spread out.

"Who, who destroyed your water-type spiritual root!"

Wei Chongqian let out a roar of shock and anger, his whole body even trembling slightly.

He couldn't help but be terrified.

Since no one else appeared within dozens of miles, and his water-based spiritual root was suddenly rendered useless, who did it?

When no one can be suspected, Wei Chongqian becomes the first person to be suspected.

In the Alchemy Pavilion, on the fifth floor guarded by Wei Chongqian, Zhang Lingshan's water-based spiritual root was ruined.

Now that he's working in the paddy fields, his water-based spiritual root has suddenly become useless.

Who else but Wei Chongqian is the only person who has crossed paths with both of them at two different locations?
Therefore, Wei Chongqian is the prime suspect, the traitor!

He's finished!

Even if he can find a reasonable explanation, he will still be guilty of dereliction of duty.

But now he has been punished and forced to come here to farm.

If he takes on another crime, his fate will be sealed; he'll likely be forced into composting.

"Manager Wei, save me, save me, Manager Wei."

Huo Ran was still wailing.

But Wei Chongqian was preoccupied with his own worries about the future, and had no time to pay attention to Huo Ran.

Since Huo Ran's water-based spiritual root was already ruined, no matter how much he cared about him, it wouldn't change anything, so there was no need to waste time on it.

"Master Huo, what happened?"

Zhang Lingshan walked over from the paddy field and asked with a surprised expression.

With such a commotion here, it would be strange if he didn't come to check it out.

As he was asking the question, the rice paddy manager quickly arrived, frowning and asking, "What's going on?"

Zhang Lingshan said, "It seems that Master Huo's water-type spiritual root has been destroyed, but we don't know who did it."

"What!?"

The paddy field manager was terrified.

The spiritual root of an alchemist has been destroyed; this is a major event.

As the person in charge here, I was responsible for such a terrible incident happening under my jurisdiction. If I were held accountable, I would not be able to get away with it.

His face was grave as he asked, "Manager Wei, what exactly happened? You were with him the whole time, didn't you see who did it?"

"No."

Wei Chongqian shook his head and said, "No one appeared. Huo Ran was in his own room when he inexplicably destroyed his water-type spiritual root. Huo Ran, what exactly happened? You experienced it firsthand, so tell me."

"I……"

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Wei Chongqian sneered. "Then you must know what you were doing in your room the moment the accident happened."

"I……"

Huo Ran stammered again, then said, "Ah, it hurts so much! Manager Wei, save me! Although my water-type spiritual root is ruined, I can still refine other pills. I'm still useful. Don't give up on me!"

"asshole!"

Wei Chongqian was furious.

This guy is pretending to be stupid and unwilling to tell the truth, which shows that the reason his water-type spiritual root was destroyed is his own fault.

But why would a Pure Lotus Alchemist want to destroy his most important water-based spiritual root for no reason?

That's utterly absurd.

"Huh, what's this? Golden Elixir Pill?"

Zhang Lingshan suddenly picked something up from the ground and exclaimed in surprise.

"Golden Elixir Pill?"

Wei Chongqian grabbed it, then suddenly realized what it was and said, "Isn't this the pill Zhao Xian refined? How did it end up here? Are you still keeping it for yourself? Idiot!"

He was immediately furious.

Zhao Xian has already attacked Zhang Lingshan, clearly indicating he's an inside traitor. Could the pills he exchanged with Huo Ran be good pills? There must be something wrong with them.

Any normal person should throw these pills away immediately, or at least hand them over to the alchemy pavilion.

but.

That idiot Huo Ran is still secretly taking this stuff.

It's clear that his water-based spiritual root was destroyed because of this pill.

No wonder he hesitated and dared not speak; how could he possibly utter such a foolish thing?

waste!

What a fool who brought this upon himself!
But I, Wei Chongqian, am going to be accused of negligence because of this. I'm so damn unlucky.

Wei Chongqian was so angry he almost vomited blood.

He wished he could kick Huo Ran, who was writhing on the ground, to death.

However, kicking someone to death would be meaningless except for demonstrating one's own impotent rage, and would only make one even more offended.

"People cannot die here."

The paddy field manager said in a deep voice, "Manager Wei, this is your man, you have to keep him in check."

That's all.

He then left in a hurry, presumably to report on the matter.

After all, the person involved in the incident was an alchemist from the Alchemy Pavilion. As a mere manager, he had no right to handle such a matter and had to report it to his superiors so that they could send someone to deal with it.

Wei Chongqian's heart sank.

But there was nothing they could do.

He could only sigh, then took out a pill and fed it to Huo Ran.

Huo Ran possessed dual spiritual roots of water and fire.

His water-type spiritual root was destroyed, but his fire-type spiritual root was not seriously injured. At least it was much less serious than Zhang Lingshan's previous injuries, and a single pill could stabilize his condition.

After taking the pill, Huo Ran kept muttering, "I can still refine pills, I'm still useful..."

"Shut up."

Wei Chongqian was thoroughly annoyed. He shouted angrily and then rubbed his temples hard.

He is awaiting final judgment.

Time passed slowly, each second feeling like an eternity.

Zhang Lingshan stopped farming at this time and stood quietly to the side, lest he make any noise that might provoke Wei Chongqian's wrath.

Even a fool could see that Wei Chongqian was on the verge of exploding. If anyone gave him an excuse, he would definitely lose his temper.

Fortunately.

Zhang Lingshan didn't have to wait long before two figures rushed towards him.

Here, these four words that come to mind are not adjectives, but facts.

The two people appeared in front of Zhang Lingshan and the others as quickly as the wind. Even a True Immortal like Wei Chongqian, who was at the peak of his power, was startled and had to take a step back to regain his footing.

"Greetings, Your Excellencies."

Wei Chongqian hurriedly knelt down.

Although he had never met these two people before, given their ability to come here and their terrifying strength, they must be adults. It wouldn't be wrong for him to kneel down and pay his respects.

"You are Wei Chongqian?"

The thin, sallow-faced old man among the two asked.

Wei Chongqian hurriedly replied, "It was indeed I." The sallow-faced old man said, "The Pavilion Master entrusted you with such a simple task, and you couldn't even handle it properly. What use are you then?"

His tone was indifferent, showing no emotional fluctuation.

However, Wei Chongqian was horrified and hurriedly kowtowed, saying, "I am guilty of negligence. I did not expect that Huo Ran would secretly take Zhao Xian's pills. Please punish me, sir."

"Oh?"

The sallow-faced old man was taken aback upon hearing this. He looked at Huo Ran, who was struggling to get up and kneeling on the ground, and said, "There are actually idiots like you in the world. Knowing that Zhao Xian is a traitor, you still dare to take his pills? What kind of pills are they? Show them to me."

“It’s the Golden Elixir Pill. Zhao Xian has the three spiritual roots of metal, fire, and wood, so only he can refine this Golden Elixir Pill.”

Wei Chongqian hurriedly took out the Golden Elixir Pill and said, "But I have examined it, and there is nothing wrong with this Golden Elixir Pill. On the contrary, it is even better..."

"Shut up!"

The sallow-faced old man snorted coldly: "I can see for myself, I don't need your interference."

talking.

He took the Golden Elixir Pill in his hand, then casually crushed it into crumbs, and snorted, "This Zhao Xian is quite skilled. He added an ingredient when refining the pill to increase its addictiveness. At first, this Golden Elixir Pill can nourish the water-type spiritual root, but after becoming addicted, the more and more one consumes, the more out of control it becomes, and it begins to deplete the water-type spiritual root."

"Your Excellency has keen insight and is truly wise."

Huo Ran hurriedly said, "I was also ambushed and became addicted. I just couldn't control myself. Although my water-type spiritual root has been destroyed, I can still refine pills. I am still useful. Please don't give up on me, sir. Please take me back to the pill refining pavilion to continue contributing."

"Haha."

The sallow-faced old man laughed loudly upon hearing this: "You piece of trash! Even when you had a water-type spiritual root, you could only refine low-grade Pure Lotus Pills, which shows how poor your alchemy skills were. You were only a silver-ranked alchemist, not even as good as Zhang Lingshan, who was ambushed by Zhao Xian before. Now that your water-type spiritual root has been destroyed, you are at most a bronze-ranked alchemist. What use are you?"

"No!"

He suddenly cried out, "I can work hard! I can still refine pills! I can definitely become a top-notch alchemist again! Please, sir, give me a chance!"

"Get lost."

The sallow-faced old man, too lazy to listen to his nonsense, kicked him into the nearby paddy field. Then he looked at Wei Chongqian and said, "Before you left the Alchemy Pavilion, you should have put away their storage rings, and this wouldn't have happened. Because of your stupidity and negligence, our Alchemy Pavilion has lost another Pure Lotus Alchemist. What is your punishment?"

"This villain deserves to die a thousand deaths."

Wei Chongqian didn't dare to say anything more, he just bent over and kowtowed, not even daring to beg for mercy.

"Hmph, the Alchemy Pavilion has nurtured you for so long, and all you say is 'you deserve to die,' how easy is that? You should atone for your sins!"

The sallow-faced old man snorted.

Wei Chongqian said, "I hope you can point me in the right direction."

"The way forward is right in front of you. Stay here and cultivate the spirit rice. As long as you grow the best spirit rice, you will have accomplished a great feat. Not only can Huo Ran's water-type spirit root be restored, but Zhang Lingshan's can too."

The sallow-skinned old man said calmly.

Wei Chongqian bowed and said, "Thank you for your guidance, sir."

Although he said that, he was filled with despair.

If top-grade spiritual rice is so easy to grow, would I even have a chance to get it?

My life is over; I'll spend the rest of my days here.

Thinking about how hard he had worked, finally becoming a manager on the fifth floor of the Alchemy Pavilion, and cultivating to the peak of True Immortal, he was not far from becoming a Profound Immortal.

But I never expected it.

It was because of Zhang Lingshan and Huo Ran that I suddenly found myself in this predicament.

hateful.

Damn it!
He felt grief and pain in his heart, but Wei Chongqian dared not show it at all, for fear of displeasing the other party.

After speaking, the sallow-faced old man didn't bother to look at Wei Chongqian again. He turned to the woman beside him and said, "Master Wei, I'm leaving them in your care. Don't pity them. These lads are used to a comfortable life in the Alchemy Pavilion. They need to come here to be educated. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

"Then we won't see Master Huang off."

The woman smiled faintly.

Swish.

The sallow-skinned old man vanished without a trace in an instant, as if he had never been there at all.

The woman, dressed in a bright green dress, was young and always wore a gentle smile.

But after the sallow-skinned old man, Manager Huang, left, the woman suddenly flipped her right hand, and a whip appeared in her hand.

Snapped!
She flicked the whip in the air, making a crisp sound that seemed to tear a hole in the air.

Zhang Lingshan noticed that the whip was ten feet long, entirely blue, with purple barbs on it, and emitted a faint, strange aura.

He had a feeling that if he were to be whipped, the pain would be excruciating.

Despite the woman's dignified appearance, gentle expression, and slight smile, her sudden act of pulling out this long whip was definitely not a good omen.

Thinking about this...

Zhang Lingshan immediately held his breath, lowered his head, and pretended that he had nothing to do with everything, hoping that the other party would not notice him.

Although this action is like an ostrich burying its head in the sand, it is self-deception.

But given the current situation, all we can do is deceive ourselves. Can we really hold our heads high and expect others to stare at us and attack us?

"My name is Wei Cuicui."

The woman introduced herself with a smile: "You can call me Manager Wei, or you can call me Cuicui, I don't mind. As long as you do a good job of farming, I will respect you. And you are all not young, you are all my elders. Calling me Cuicui, or Xiaocui, just shows that we are close, doesn't it?"

"I wouldn't dare."

Wei Chongqian quickly replied.

Zhang Lingshan kept his head down and remained silent.

Judging from the woman's opening remarks and her strange smile, he felt that she was not a normal person and could not be understood by normal thinking. Therefore, it was better not to speak than to speak, and it was better to go along with her than not to.

If Wei Chongqian's words were applied to that sallow-faced old man, it would be considered that he was extremely respectful and had self-awareness.

But in front of this woman, it's probably a completely different story.

as predicted.

Wei Cuicui's face darkened, and she snorted, "Are you looking down on me and not listening to what I say?"

Wei Chongqian's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "I wouldn't dare, I respect you, sir, how could I..."

Snapped!
With a sharp crack, the whip lashed Wei Chongqian's face.

"what!"

Wei Chongqian let out a shrill scream as his entire face was torn open, revealing his teeth and nasal bone protruding from the flesh.

"You don't even farm properly, yet you dare to contradict me time and time again. Manager Huang has a good temper and won't hold it against you, but I won't be so polite to you."

Wei Cuicui snorted and said, "We gave you all such good paddy fields, but none of you cherish them. The land is almost dry these days, and you still dare to talk back to me. Do you know how hard it was for us to cultivate so many paddy fields? Wasting the land is unforgivable!"

Snap, snap snap!

While cursing, Wei Cuicui lashed out at Wei Chongqian.

The entire paddy field echoed with Wei Chongqian's pitiful cries.

The planting workers from all directions were horrified, their faces turning ashen, and they hurriedly released their blood to nourish the land.

Wei Cuicui made her point very clearly: if you farm well, you're a respectable worker, and you're family.

Those who don't farm properly and squander the land will end up like Wei Chongqian.

With such a scare tactic, who would dare not farm properly?

Zhang Lingshan was closest to Wei Chongqian, so he heard the most tragic sounds and felt the entire space tremble as if Wei Cuicui was whipping him.

Even with a strong physical body, this kind of fighting style won't bring you any advantage; you'll still suffer immensely.

Fortunately, I have cultivated the spirit rice very well these days, otherwise, it would not have been just Wei Chongqian who was beaten today.

Snapped!
Just then, Wei Cuicui suddenly turned her attention to Huo Ran.

Don't think you can escape punishment just because you're suddenly injured. Even if you die, Wei Cuicui will still beat you without hesitation.

In this paddy field, Wei Cuicui is the head of the household.

People can do whatever they want. Even if they kill Wei Chongqian and Huo Ran, no one can say a bad word about them.

After all, Huo Ran was no longer the Pure Lotus Alchemist, and Wei Chongqian was no longer the fifth-level manager of the Alchemy Pavilion.

This beating was meant to make them realize their place.

"Your name is Zhang Lingshan, right? You're very good. You've done a good job tending this acre of land. I have high hopes for you."

Wei Cuicui finally put away her whip and then looked at Zhang Lingshan with a smile. (End of Chapter)
