Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Three months later.

A figure dressed in pink appeared behind the Steward He, the in-charge of the outer sect and was walking towards the spirit field at the foot of the mountain.

“Junior Sister Shu Yi, you don’t have to make this trip personally, you can just give your orders if you need anything and I’ll get someone to send it to Dan Chen Mountain.” Steward He said with a fawning smile while leading the way.

“Senior Brother He is too polite, how can I trouble you.” Shu Yi responded with a bashful smile, her expression innocent and adorable. “It’s just because my father needed to refine a batch of Spirit Mending pills and happened to be lacking the fragrant spirit shrub. Such low-level spirit herbs are only grown in the outer sect, my father needed it urgently and I happened to be idle so I made a trip here.”

“Turns out the fragrant spirit herb that Junior Sister asked for was needed by Perfected Shu Yuan!” Steward He was shocked, his attitude became even more respectful. “Junior Sister Shu Yi is indeed Perfected Shu Yuan’s child, you’re so filial, not to mention, your cultivation level rises so quickly.”

“You flatter me Senior Brother He.” Shu Yi showed a slightly embarrassed smile, looking just like a naive little girl.

“The outer sect has a lot of the fragrant spirit shrub, today happens to be the day of the quarterly harvest.” Steward He’s gaze was increasingly kind as he hurriedly pointed to the front and said, “Junior Sister Shu please follow me, feel free to let me know which field you’ve taken a fancy to.”

“Thank you Senior Brother.” Shu Yi immediately skipped and followed, —after passing a huge spirit field, unsure whether it was intentional or not, she started to approach the spirit field right at the edge.

Suddenly, an odd voice sounded.

[Host, weren’t you planning to quickly refine that heart-shaped immortal artifact, then help owner exact revenge, what are you doing here now?]

“Of course it’s to send some warmth.” Shu Yi answered deep down. “Wasn’t Zuo Shuming sent here to farm the spirit field as a punishment? And he was given a piece of land. Now the three-month deadline is up, he certainly cannot present 50 stems of spirit herbs. Naturally I have to help him!”

[Help him, why? Isn’t Zuo Shuming our enemy? He was the one who killed owner in her previous life, why are you helping him?]

“System you don’t understand.” Shu Yi sighed and said, “For such a jerk like Zuo Shuming, just snatching his opportunities and preventing him from ascending would not satisfy the owner. Only by tormenting his body and heart with nothing to his name, making him completely lose the motivation to practice cultivation, can we achieve our aim of revenge. Sometimes, staying alive feels worse than being dead!”

[001 does not understand, we’ve already taken his most important immortal artifact away and ruined his chances of becoming a disciple of the Soul Formation cultivator, is that not enough?]

“Of course it’s not!” Shu Yi said angrily, “In her previous life, the original owner Shu Yi loved him so deeply, willingly putting herself in danger time and time again for him. Yet he did not know to treasure that at all, not only did he publicly refuse to marry her, he even embarrassed her for a disciple who just joined the sect. If it wasn’t for all that, why would the owner turn demonic. In the end she even died in his hands! Zuo Shuming ruined Shu Yi’s entire life, how could simply not being able to ascend dispel owner’s resentment?”

[Then what do you intend to do?]

“Didn’t he say that he’s never had feelings for owner, his junior sister?” Shu Yi laughed coldly. “Of course I’ll let him have a taste of desiring something but not being able to get it.”

[So host coming here this time is to pretend to help him escape the punishment for not being able to present the spirit herbs and get Zuo Shuming to develop feelings for you?]

“How is just having feelings enough?” Shu Yi said, “I will make it an indelible love!”

[You are indeed the best host, all the best! I have faith in you.]

Shu Yi did not reply, but the smugness in her eyes deepened, filled with a glint of determination to achieve what she planned on.

On the hill not too far away.

Lonemoon who listened to everything: “...”

Yi Qing who just came over: “...”

Say, were those two invaders really completely unaware of this broadcast-like public mode of their conversation? He could hear it from a few hundred meters away, it was really very noisy!

He turned and glanced at the “jerk” Two-Bucks Zuo who was already in meditation beside the field. This was his first time taking a good look at his face, his appearance was really so-so! Not even as good-looking as Song Ren that unlucky fool! How did he manage to get into such a nasty love affair, even his ascension was ruined. No wonder it was bought with just two bucks?

“Father Niu...” Yi Qing looked inquiringly at Lonemoon, then turned towards Zuo Shuming who was meditating beside the field.

Lonemoon frowned before replying, “Let’s get back! I reckon that invader is about to come over.”

Yi Qing then waved and undid the Soul Gathering Array beside Two-Bucks Zuo, then put away the two plates of pastries that was before Lonemoon.

“Damn it! I brought that here!” What right do you have to put it away, he was intending on snatching it but those two people were already approaching the area.

“Senior Brother He, what is being grown there? Seems like there is the aura of fragrant spirit shrubs too!” Shu Yi suddenly pointed to the side-most spirit field that was blocked off by patches of weed.

“The spirit field there is more remote, with thinner Spirit Qi.” Steward He replied, struck with a sudden thought, he added, “Oh yes, earlier on, I think there was a disciple sent here, calculating the time... it’s about time for him to hand in spirit herbs.”

“Since that’s the case, let’s go over for a look. Who knows, there might be fragrant spirit shrubs that are in even better condition.”

“Sure!” Something flashed across Steward He’s eyes as he nodded. “We can also look for that disciple and collect the spirit herbs he has to hand in.” He answered in all seriousness yet deep down, he was thinking, how could that land be able to sprout any spirit herbs.

Back then when the higher-ups sent this disciple to his piece of land, he’d already understood that this disciple had offended someone up there. He just needed to wait till the harvest of this quarter, when he could not hand in any spirit herbs, he’d then be able to kick him out of the sect. Such incidents do happen in the outer sect, everyone already had a tacit understanding. Right now, it happened that Shu Yi, an inner sect disciple was present and she was the daughter of a Nascent Soul Elder, who knows, she might bring the news back to the inner sect and he might get something good out of it.

As he thought, he walked faster and faster, rounding pass the patches of tall weeds, heading towards the piece of land all the way at the side. Shu Yi’s eyes dimmed and immediately followed.

That piece of land was right at the edge of the mountain, as there weren’t enough Spirit Qi, the surrounding land were all barren, filled with patches of weeds as tall as humans that blocked the sight, the situation of that land was completely hidden from view.

Two people, each with their own load on their mind, went on along a small path, Shu Yi glanced at the surrounding weeds, her thoughts growing firmer deep down. Hence she feigned ignorance and asked, “Senior Brother He, this place looks like it’s been unattended to for a long time, why would a disciple be sent here to farm? Can spirit herbs be grown?”

“You must be joking Junior Sister. This is a spirit field, as long as one puts his heart and soul into it, he can naturally grow spirit herbs.” Steward He replied and finally rounded pass the weeds.

“But this piece of land has rarely any Spirit Qi, how is possible that he would have any spirit herbs to hand in, is this making things difficult for him.” She was setting up the base so that she could speak for him later, but realized that the person in front had suddenly stopped walking, frozen in the same spot. “Senior Brother He? Senior Brother He!”
