How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"But……"

Yao Yang wanted to say something like that such geniuses are often eccentric or arrogant, but Sect Master Shi Xing interrupted her with a smile and a shake of his head.

Shi Xing, whose limbs had been severed, had now grown back. When he returned the wheelchair that the city lord had kindly given him, he was somewhat embarrassed by the latter's envious and ardent gaze.

In terms of injuries alone, Shi Xing, whose limbs were bitten off, was in much worse condition than the city lord. The latter was injured by the evil cultivator and did not receive timely treatment, which resulted in paralysis of both legs.

However, Shi Xing, being a Golden Core cultivator, possessed a recovery ability far superior to that of the city lord. One of the benefits of cultivation lies in this: a more tenacious vitality.

If it were an ordinary person with all four limbs severed, even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would probably be depressed because of their injuries, and might even impulsively try to commit suicide.

The shock of going from being able-bodied to disabled, the feeling of helplessness, can drive people crazy. Even the comfort of loved ones can be hurtful to them.

But Shi Xing was different. As long as he survived, he was not worried about his injuries at all. He knew he could recover completely.

Now, apart from his aura still being somewhat weakened and his cultivation level dropping slightly, Shi Xing's injuries were no longer a major concern, which naturally made the city lord extremely envious.

However, since they were both patients in wheelchairs, Shi Xing and the city lord had developed some acquaintance. He promised to find a way to help the city lord recover his health, which earned the city lord's sincere gratitude.

After all, he is the sect leader of the Medicine King Sect. Even if he can't beat others in a fight, healing is his professional strength.

A thought flashed through his mind, but Shi Xing composed himself, put on a solemn expression, and gently knocked on the door.

"Da da da!"

Shi Xing’s voice was loud and clear: “Fellow Daoist Hei Yang, Fellow Daoist Hong Li, I, Shi Xing, the sect leader of the Medicine King Sect, have come to disturb you. Please open the door and let me know.”

"..."

"..."

"Cough cough."

Shi Xing raised his voice again: "Fellow Daoist Hei Yang, Fellow Daoist Hong Li, the Medicine King Sect has come to pay a visit with generous gifts. We hope you will open the door and grant us an audience!"

"..."

"..."

Shi Xing: "???"

"Well……"

Yao Yang frowned as she walked to the wall, gently tapped it with her finger, and pressed her ear against it for a moment. Suddenly, she looked enlightened, turned to look at the bewildered Shi Xing, and pointed to the wall.

"The surface patterns and colors are covered up and disguised as ordinary five-colored city bricks, but in fact they are all high-quality 'sound-absorbing stones', making it difficult for outside sounds to penetrate."

"Ah this..."

Sect Master Shi Xing was stunned for a moment, then looked confused.

He was familiar with the so-called sound-absorbing stone, a special mineral in the world of wandering beings, mostly distributed in the territories of alien races, while it was relatively rare and precious among humans.

This type of ore is of the highest quality in terms of both sound insulation and durability.

It is generally used for... well, for building those secluded meditation chambers for closed-door cultivation!

But this isn't a locked room, is it?

Isn't this your residence?

Does the secret room also have a courtyard with greenery inside?

Shi Xing had never seen anyone use this thing to build a house; it was just ridiculous!

You two are completely isolated from the world, aren't you?

Don't you guys even consider what to do if someone comes knocking on your door?

Are you no longer human beings, a social species?

Do you guys not need social interaction at all?

Have you become immortals?

For a moment, even Shi Xing, the sect leader of the Medicine King Sect who considered himself to be quite knowledgeable, couldn't help but have a bunch of questions popping up above his head.

"Um, Sect Master..."

Yao Yang looked helpless: "What do we do now?"

"Uh……"

Shi Xing hesitated, looked up at the sky, and said in a complicated tone, "How about we... fly over the wall?"

"Oh, this... this is considered trespassing, isn't it?"

Yao Yang's lips twitched, and she also looked up.

"Moreover, I have a feeling that if we fly in directly, we might encounter something illogical."

For example, something like an air-to-air missile system! (Just kidding)

For example, something like a protective formation!

So what should we do? Just leave?

The sect leader and the first elder exchanged a glance and nodded.

"Ahem, that..."

Shi Xing waved his hand: "Elder Yao is right. Everyone, check it a few more times to see if there is anything missing!"

Okay, let's give them both some more time to think of a solution!

"Does Elder Yao have any good ideas?"

"Uh, no."

"And you, Sect Master?"

"Uh, I'm thinking about it."

"..."

"..."

"Ugh……"

Yao Yang sighed, somewhat regretting, "We should have discussed and made an appointment beforehand. This sudden visit was indeed a bit rash."

"..."

"..."

"Cough cough!"

Shi Xing suddenly coughed and chuckled awkwardly at his disciples, "It seems that you two fellow Daoists are not home today, so we... um?"

Before Shi Xing could finish speaking, he and the others suddenly looked into the distance, where several figures were strolling leisurely toward them.

.........

"Hmm? Why are there so many people in front of Xiaoyang's house?"

Qing Tianming narrowed his eyes in confusion, looking curiously at the group of people pushing the cart ahead.

"Is this the team you hired to renovate your new home?"

"Uh, that seems to be..."

He shaded his eyes with his hand and looked closely.

"The one at the front seems to be an immortal from the Medicine King Sect. I met him once before, but he was quite badly injured at that time."

"A celestial master from the Medicine King Sect?!"

Qing Tianming's eyes widened: "Why would they come all the way here in person, and in so many of them? Did Xiao Yang and the others cause trouble?"

"I don't think so."

Qing Yiyi frowned: "It looks like they're waiting for someone to open the door?"

Hmm, I don't know much about the cultivation world. I guess they're here to talk to Xiao Yang and the others about something?

"You want the immortal master to come and find us in person?!"

Qing Tianming was startled: "Why aren't Xiao Yang and the others opening the door yet? What if they make the Immortal Master wait impatiently and get angry?"

Although the Five Colors family has ties with the Five Elements Sect, they even dare to confront the royal family.

But the people standing in front of the gate now are from the Medicine King Sect, another major immortal sect. They are not people that the Five Colors Family can easily offend!

"Oh dear, Father, what are you afraid of?"

Qing Yiyi pulled her father forward with an indifferent expression.

"The Immortal Master is just someone who has cultivated some magic. Didn't Xiao Yang and the others also return from cultivation?"

Although I don't know much about the cultivation world, my son does.

He said that if you encounter anyone from the cultivation world, just mention his and Xiao Li's names. He said that as long as they are involved in the Dao... uh, that's his exact words.

He said that anyone in the underworld would give them face when they heard their names.

Well, he also said that if someone doesn't give him face, it proves that the other person is either a nobody who can't get in touch with high-level people, or an old relic who never leaves the house.

Xiao Yang said not to panic in this situation, and that we should scold him a few times before he came over to help solve it.
