Immortality System: Cultivating with Girls

"Senior Brother Mu! Senior Brother Mu has arrived!" a disciple exclaimed.

Soon enough, others noticed Mu Yunqing's arrival.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Mu!"

The moment Mu Yunqing arrived, all the disciples present bowed respectfully. Some even had looks of excitement in their eyes.

"Greetings, junior brothers."

Mu Yunqing returned the salutations meticulously, his face consistently adorned with a gentle smile. His entire being radiated an approachable aura that naturally drew people towards him.

"Senior Brother Mu!"

Even Xu Qing, standing nearby, was brimming with excitement.

Clearly, Mu Yunqing held an extremely high status in the hearts of these individuals.

Only Wen Zhixing remained composed.

To think I'd run into Mu Yunqing right after joining the Righteous Sun Sect. It seems we're fated to meet under awkward circumstances. Looking at him, he appears to be thoroughly enjoying this kind of attention.

The next moment, Wen Zhixing was startled again.

I've spotted another acquaintance.

Right behind Mu Yunqing stood a familiar figure: Zhang Tiancheng, his head slightly bowed, an expression of utmost humility on his face.

Zhang Tiancheng… I see. Mu Yunqing must be here to handle Zhang Tiancheng's registration.

Wen Zhixing slowly stepped back, positioning himself in an inconspicuous corner.

"Eh, this junior brother looks unfamiliar. Is he new to the sect?"

However, as fate would have it, Mu Yunqing's gaze swept over and landed directly on Wen Zhixing. His perception was keen; he immediately noticed that Wen Zhixing's demeanor was different from the others.

Wen Zhixing was also taken aback.

He even noticed that? This Mu Yunqing probably has every single person in the Righteous Sun Sect memorized.

"Reporting to Senior Brother Mu," Xu Qing, who was beside Wen Zhixing, eagerly interjected before he could answer, "this is Junior Brother Wang Shouzhen. He has just joined the sect."

"So, it's Junior Brother Wang."

Mu Yunqing nodded in acknowledgment and smiled. "I've noted it."

He didn't recognize the name Wang Shouzhen. With so many cultivation furnaces in the Wondrous Palace, it was natural that he wouldn't know every single one.

But while Mu Yunqing didn't recognize the name, Zhang Tiancheng was very familiar with it.

Upon hearing those words, Zhang Tiancheng, who had kept his head bowed, slowly lifted it. His gaze swept across the crowd, only to fall upon an unfamiliar figure.

Zhang Tiancheng paused, then after another deep look, he lowered his head again.

It seems it's just someone else with the same name.

Wen Zhixing showed no reaction either, merely bowing his head in salutation like the others.

Soon, Mu Yunqing entered the pavilion.

Only then did the assembled disciples gradually disperse.

"Senior Brother Xu, could you please take me to my residence?" Wen Zhixing reminded Xu Qing, who was still standing there in a daze.

Xu Qing snapped back to his senses and smiled. "My apologies, Junior Brother Wang. I was distracted."

"It's no trouble, no trouble at all," Wen Zhixing replied with a wave of his hand. Then, as if asking casually, he added, "Senior Brother Xu, does this Senior Brother Mu hold a very high position within the Righteous Sun Sect?"

"Senior Brother Mu?"

Hearing this, Xu Qing instantly brightened. "Naturally! Senior Brother Mu is the foremost God Pride of the Righteous Sun Sect. He's also incredibly affable. If anyone seeks his help, as long as the request isn't too unreasonable, he'll assist in resolving it…

"Not only that," Xu Qing continued, his excitement growing, "Senior Brother Mu, whenever he has free time, also shares his cultivation experiences with others…"

Xu Qing grew more and more animated as he recounted Mu Yunqing's deeds over the years.

Wen Zhixing nodded slightly.

No wonder. Mu Yunqing has certainly invested considerable effort to gain the support of others.

"Junior Brother Wang, we've arrived. This will be your dwelling for now. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave," Xu Qing said with a smile.

Unwittingly, they had arrived before the aforementioned residence.

To call it a "residence" was perhaps an overstatement; it was, in reality, just a slightly larger wooden house. It was even inferior to the dwelling Wen Zhixing had occupied at the Wondrous Palace.

But this was understandable. After all, the Righteous Sun Sect had a multitude of disciples. Moreover, Wen Zhixing currently had no status to speak of, so having an independent wooden house to himself was already quite good.

At least he would not be disturbed.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Xu."

Wen Zhixing cupped his fists and watched Xu Qing depart.

Then, he entered the room and closed the door.

It seems Liu Qingdai truly didn't betray me. Otherwise, someone would have come looking for me by now. In that case, it's fine to stay and cultivate. Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it.

Wen Zhixing sat down cross-legged and immediately began his cultivation.

This time, I stole many elixirs and Spiritual Instruments from the Wondrous Palace. It's time to significantly boost my cultivation.

...

Meanwhile,

Bai Luqiu had already returned to her own place with Liu Qingdai.

"Senior Sister Luqiu, thank you so much for this."

Liu Qingdai visibly relaxed. I rarely get to have fun outside, and thankfully, Dad didn't find out. What a relief, what a relief!

"Don't be so quick to thank me."

However, Bai Luqiu shook her head, a hint of pity flickering in her eyes as she looked at Liu Qingdai.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Qingdai was taken aback.

"See for yourself."

Bai Luqiu didn't answer directly but gestured with her eyes towards the area in front of them.

There, standing before them, was a man with a stern countenance, clad in a black Daoist robe.

This man was none other than Liu Qingxuan.

His gaze fell upon Liu Qingdai, and he smiled. "You're back."

"Dad..." Liu Qingdai's expression immediately soured. This is bad... Then, she forced a smile. "Dad, were you looking for me?"

"Mhm, I have something for you," Liu Qingxuan said, still smiling.

"Something? What is it, Dad? Just tell me!"

Liu Qingdai's heart eased slightly; relieved that he wasn't there to settle accounts with her.

"Daier, go into the house and face the wall for half a month. You are not to go out," Liu Qingxuan added cheerfully.

"Oh, that... ah... AH?"

Liu Qingdai was stunned, her expression completely collapsing. Face the wall again? And for half a month...

She immediately whirled around to look at Bai Luqiu.

Bai Luqiu, however, had already turned her head away. Sorry, I didn't see anything.

"Senior Sister Luqiu, I'll remember this..." Liu Qingdai fumed. And I trusted you so much!

But she still wanted to try to plead her case. "Dad, I'm injured right now..."

Liu Qingxuan heard this, pondered for a moment, and then said, "In that case, add another half a month. That will be perfect for your recovery."

"..."

At that, Liu Qingdai instantly fell silent.

"Go on, in you go."

"Yes..."

Liu Qingdai was helpless.

Ultimately, she could only obediently enter the house.

The next moment, Liu Qingxuan waved his hand.

An array method materialized out of thin air, and an invisible barrier of light enveloped the house, sealing it off from the outside world.

No way in, no way out.

A bitter expression crossed Liu Qingdai's face.

I only snuck out for two or three days, and now I'm confined for a whole month. What a raw deal!

Of course, "facing the wall" was really just a way to make her rest properly and not run around.

...

"Luqiu, you've worked hard."

Liu Qingxuan managed a somewhat helpless smile. This time, Liu Qingdai had truly been on the verge of serious trouble. As her father, he had been wracked with anxiety and fear.

Bai Luqiu shook her head, indicating it was a small matter. After a moment's thought, she added, "Master, there's one more thing I think I should report to you."

"What is it?" Liu Qingxuan asked. His expression grew anxious. What else could have happened?

"I have a feeling... Junior Sister... she... she might have taken a liking to someone," Bai Luqiu said, hesitating slightly as she voiced her suspicion.

"What!"

Liu Qingxuan was stunned, and then his face darkened instantly.

Damn it, who is it?!
