Chapter 83: Chapter Fourteen – Come, Follow Me Home
When someone mocks you with the words you said not long ago, how would you feel?
General Lian felt very angry. First, his son’s happiness for the rest of his life was ruined, and now he was being mocked.
He couldn’t calm down at all. He just wanted to kill He Youzhou.
Indeed, his Core Formation stage cultivation was nothing in Wolf City, but it was enough to deal with a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator like He Youzhou.
Obviously, General Lian was so angry that he forgot how his whip had been cut into pieces just now.
The sword that had cut his whip into a hundred pieces was still hovering beside He Youzhou, but he didn’t understand the relationship between the sword and He Youzhou.
“Why aren’t you going up to kill him! I want him dead!!!!” General Lian roared at his guards.
The guards didn’t dare to disobey orders and charged forward with gritted teeth.
The iron sword hovered in front of He Youzhou, and the spiritual energy contained within the scabbard seemed ready to destroy everything around it at any moment.
If it weren’t for the scabbard sealing the spiritual energy, it would be questionable whether the guards could even stand up.
“Remember, don’t unsheathe.” He Youzhou thought for a moment and specifically reminded.
If his iron sword were unsheathed, it would be hard to clean up the mess.
The sword spirit inside the iron sword, as usual, did not respond.
But He Youzhou could tell from the extremely perfunctory vibration that the sword spirit had heard him.
“Buzz——” The crisp sound overlapped and reached everyone’s ears.
The next second, the sword shot towards General Lian like an arrow, ignoring all the guards around.
The speed of the sword was not fast, even slow in the eyes of cultivators.
But General Lian, looking at the sword, smelled the scent of death. He couldn’t block it, couldn’t dodge it.
Facing this iron sword, he found that he could only wait for death in place.
“Spare him.” A thunderous voice sounded.
Accompanied by the voice was a gray-black afterimage.
Unfortunately, the owner of this voice had clearly overestimated their own authority.
No matter who came, He Youzhou’s sword would not stop.
After all, she was just a sword; she couldn’t understand what others were saying.
Or even if she understood, she would pretend not to.
The speaker realized that this iron sword would not stop, so he thrust his spear to block the sword’s path to General Lian.
With a “clang,” the iron sword was bounced back to He Youzhou’s side, straight into the stone bricks.
And that spear shattered from the tip to the tail.
The person holding the spear looked at the broken spear in his hand and fell silent.
After a long while, he finally spoke, “Thank you for showing mercy.”
This person was wearing armor, a wolf fur cloak draped over his back, and a helmet resembling a wolf’s head. Just standing there, he exuded ferocity.
He was the lord of this Wolf City, known as General Wolf because he was as fierce as a wolf on the battlefield at the border. Both enemies and allies called him General Wolf.
However, everyone knew him as General Wolf; few knew his real name.
“Lord! These people are causing trouble in our Wolf City and even injured my son!” General Lian hurriedly said upon seeing the newcomer.
General Lian saw the lord of Wolf City as a savior.
“Enough, General Lian. Your child has provoked someone they shouldn’t have,” General Wolf said in a deep voice.
He Youzhou’s cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, but his beast-like instincts told him not to be careless.
The leisurely Taoist in front of him might not have the ability to kill him, but the sword beside him could.
Although General Wolf didn’t yet understand the whole story, now was definitely not the time to clash with He Youzhou.
“Lord…” General Lian looked at the lord in disbelief, not understanding why he was backing down.
This was Wolf City, where General Wolf’s command would summon countless troops.
Even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator couldn’t act recklessly in the face of Wolf City’s army.
Not to mention, the lord of Wolf City himself was at the Nascent Soul stage, just half a step away from the Divine Transformation stage.
In the face of such a powerful army, any cultivator entering Wolf City had to follow the rules.
“I will investigate the matter later,” General Wolf said, addressing both his deputy and He Youzhou.

“Fellow Daoist, how about letting this matter rest for now?” He looked at He Youzhou, waiting for his response.
“Alright… just don’t cause trouble later,” He Youzhou picked up the iron sword from the ground and strapped it back onto his back.
He had just moved to Wolf City and didn’t want to be wanted again.
Although he had gained a new disciple in Wolf City today, moving frequently was not a good thing.
Everyone wanted a stable place to settle down, not to wander around.
Seeing He Youzhou’s response, General Wolf cupped his hands, “Thank you.”
“Someone, clean this place up,” he ordered with a shout.
Unlike General Lian’s oppressive demeanor, the guards of Wolf City were noticeably more enthusiastic upon hearing General Wolf’s command.
In no time, General Wolf mounted his horse, bid farewell to He Youzhou, and left with his men.
“It seems that couple won’t have to worry about being troubled anymore,” He Youzhou remarked.
“It’s all thanks to you, senior,” Lin Qingxue said, her eyes shining as she looked at He Youzhou.
Indeed, only with absolute power can one exercise true justice. Justice without power is but an illusion.
If it weren’t He Youzhou, but someone else, General Lian wouldn’t have retreated, and General Wolf wouldn’t have been so agreeable.
The bullied would receive no justice, and those who extended a helping hand would suffer humiliation.
Where the sword’s edge reaches, so does the truth.
She had made the right choice. The path she wanted to take was undoubtedly the same as He Youzhou’s.
At this moment, she genuinely felt that her hardships over the past six months had not been in vain. Leaving Qingshan Sect and abandoning her cultivation was the right decision.
If she didn’t believe that the matter of apprenticeship had to be formal, she would have already started calling him master here.
No, she had to stay calm. Apprenticeship is not a trivial matter.
As the saying goes, “Once a teacher, always a father.” The apprenticeship ceremony must be formal—even though she had had a master before.
Lin Qingxue calmed down a bit and remembered she had some questions, “By the way, master… senior, what brings you to Wolf City?”
“I came here to attend the Yunshang Exhibition,” He Youzhou replied, “but I don’t plan to go now.”
Compared to taking on a disciple, what is the Yunshang Exhibition? Revitalizing Tianyan Sect is the priority.
“Let’s go, follow me up the mountain.”
