A cultivator at the thirteenth level still had to wash bowls in the kitchen, and they merely had a lousier place to stay in. So what did they have to be unsatisfied about?
Yun Liao turned his head and asked, “Why are you looking for me?”
Yang Lele hurriedly shook his head and took a pair of chopsticks from a bamboo tube nearby before smiling as he walked away.
“I actually came here to look for chopsticks.”
After speaking, Yang Lele left the kitchen.
…
Speaking of Wen Ping, he once again headed to the back mountain after a short rest. At this moment, the feeling of looking at the deep pond was completely different from when he had come in the morning. Seeing that the water here was very clear, Wen Ping even cupped his hand and lifted a handful of it to drink. The water somehow had a hint of sweetness to it.
However, the pond was too deep, so when he dipped his head in, he could only see blackness. Wen Ping naturally didn’t forget that there was a jiao-dragon sleeping within. The blackness he saw might be the skin of the jiao-dragon.
Jiao-dragons were part of the dragon species, and they were innately ranked higher compared to other demonic creatures. Hence, the bloodline pressure they exuded was sufficient to cause many demonic creatures to not dare to get close.
Sometimes, Wen Ping would think if he tossed the ling fish into the water, would she be so frightened that she couldn’t move?
However, this was merely a random thought. He wasn’t bored enough to do so.
At this moment, Wen Ping sat cross-legged beside the pond and listened to the flowing water sounds attentively as he started to accept the ability indoctrination of Jiao-Dragon Rage.

…
The next day.
“Elder Yun!”
“Wait a moment.”
Half an hour later, Wen Ping called out again. “Elder Yun, we have to go!”
“Wait for me a little while longer.”
Another half an hour passed.
Wen Ping truly couldn’t take it anymore. This fellow kept delaying and cultivating in the gravity field. He said ‘a moment’, but it had been an hour.
When Wen Ping lifted his head and looked at the sky, it was already noon.
Due to his anxiousness, Wen Ping executed the Jiao-Dragon Rage and roared loudly, “Yun Liao, can you honor your words?”
His voice was like thunder and sounded like the roar of a true dragon.
Immediately, the expression of Zhao Qing who was cultivating in the gravity field changed. Now, the gaze with which she looked at Wen Ping was filled with dread.
Moreover, the trembling that came from the depths of her soul made her entire body ice-cold.
She then glanced at the area around Wen Ping. A half-meter-tall huge rock had cracked because of his roar. The crack looked like the crow’s feet on Uncle Wang’s face, dense and plenty. Furthermore, a radius of five meters around Wen Ping looked as though it had been completely peeled away by someone. Many of the thin branches of the trees ten meters away were also broken.
As for Yang Lele who was merely at the fifth level of the Body Refinement Realm, he was so shocked that he sat on the ground, unable to get up on his feet even after a long while.
It was only at this moment that Yun Liao regained his senses from the completely focused state which arose from him cultivating. He then stared at Wen Ping in astonishment.
“This is?”
“This is what I planned to teach you. If you still plan to waste my time, even if you wash a year’s worth of bowls, I won’t be teaching you.”
“D…don’t do that. I’m coming out immediately.”
Yun Liao immediately stopped cultivating in the gravity field and rushed out. He then ran to the side and wore an outer garment.
Half an hour later, Wen Ping finally left the Immortal Sect together with Yun Liao. They were heading to the Hundred Sect Alliance’s branch in Cangwu City.
His purpose was to attend the meeting with Shi Hua, all for the sake of getting three months’ worth of safety.
The branch of the Hundred Sect Alliance was on the northern side of Cangwu City. It had existed before the City was constructed and had lasted for many long years. The original purpose for its existence was to prevent the demon race that hailed from all 108 great lakes from infiltrating the area.
However, because people of the later generations had signed a peace contract with the demons, the relationship between the two races was now so much more harmonious, leading to the fact that the shadow of demons would start to appear among humans.
After 1,000 years of development, it had branches in all 108 lakes and also became the largest organization in Skyearth Lake.
It was the only 5-stars power in Skyearth Lake.
Although this was just a branch, the architectural style wasn’t in any way inferior compared to the main hall of the Immortal Sect in the past. Moreover, there were two gigantic stone tigers lying on the stone mounds at the side. A fully grown tiger was only half the size of the statues.
When Wen Ping met Shi Hua again, her expression was somewhat unsightly. She stood at the side of the street and shot a few glares at Wen Ping before asking him in an interrogative tone. “Wen Ping, what time did we arrange to meet? Why did you only come now?”
Wen Ping glanced at Yun Liao beside him and rolled his eyes. He could only apologize to Shi Hua. “Sorry, there were some matters that cropped up in the sect and I was delayed.”
That’s right!
This Yun Liao had entered a meditative state where he forgot everything, which caused Wen Ping to wait for a long time.
Staring at the sky, Wen Ping knew that quite some time had passed from their agreed meeting time, which was at noon.
Honestly speaking, Shi Hua didn’t believe in Wen Ping’s words, so she calmly replied, “Right now, the Immortal Sect doesn’t even have a single person. What matter could you have been busy with? If I knew you wouldn’t be punctual, I wouldn’t have come today.”
“Sorry, it’s my mistake. Why don’t I treat you to a meal later to apologize for this matter today?”
“There’s no need for that. We are acquaintances after all, so it’s fine to wait a little. Have you seen the things I passed you?”
“Yup, but some areas were too much of an exaggeration, so I made some minor changes. However, the main gist of things is still as per what you have written.”
“No problem, in any case, this is just a delaying tactic. You have a land and a sect, and today you are just here to register your name.” Shi Hua turned and stepped past the stone tigers to enter the branch of the Hundred Sect Alliance.
Ai, she sighed helplessly in her heart as she walked.
Why would she have a friend like this?
How would there be guys letting girls wait for them?
However, Wen Ping had something she really needed.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned and faced Wen Ping as she spoke, “Wen Ping, I just opened a dojo in Clearwater Street. How about you going over to help me out? In any case, you don’t have much to do in the Immortal Sect, so why don’t you help me teach some students when you have the time?”
“This…”
Wen Ping couldn’t tell her the truth despite truly having a reason.
Shi Hua had helped him greatly and it could be considered that he owed her a favor. If he directly rejected her right now, it would seem too heartless.
However, if he didn’t reject her, it would truly be too much of a waste of time to go to the dojo to teach people.
When Shi Hua heard Wen Ping mumbling things under his breath and didn’t agree, she continued, “I know what you want to ask. About the payment, right? I can pay you 10 gold coins per month, and it won’t be considered an insult to you, a cultivator at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm.”
“10 gold coins…I…”
Shi Hua continued, “What are you still thinking about? The number of dojos in Cangwu City that can pay 10 gold per month is so few that they can be counted on the fingers of one hand. As you can earn 10 gold just by teaching casually, don’t tell me that you still feel that you are at a disadvantage? Also, the work is pretty relaxing. The kids at my dojo are merely at the first level of Body Refinement. Won’t it be simple for you to guide them with your standard as someone at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm?”
“Let’s settle my matter first before we discuss more later. It is still pretty early.”
Feeling helpless, Wen Ping could only adopt a delaying tactic. After that, he heard the sounds of chortling from Yun Liao.

Wen Ping knew that this fellow Yun Liao was no longer able to suppress his laughter.
Yun Liao then spoke, “Yeah, Sect Leader Wen. 10 gold coins per month to become a dojo instructor is really very lucrative.”
“Scram, if you continue talking, I won’t teach you anymore.”
Yun Liao hurriedly covered his mouth and fell silent.
However, his words were immediately ‘seized’ upon by Shi Hua as she continued, “Yeah, your friend is very sensible, even he can tell that the pay I offer is very high..”
