Mortal Seeking Immortal

The woman named Madam Huayue looked shy, glared at the middle-aged cultivator, and said: "Fellow Daoist Xu, be careful with your words. This lady is not someone who does not know the limits. Besides, not everyone can become my lover."

Fellow Daoist Xu nodded: "That's good."

While the two were talking, the black spot had already flown into the territory of Shengyun Country. It turned out to be a cultivator flying on a sword.

The cultivator obviously saw the people sitting cross-legged below. The flying sword under his feet paused slightly. At this time, the fat monk with the highest cultivation among the cultivators spoke. His voice was as loud as a bell, instantly piercing the clouds and reaching the cultivator's ears.

"Is the fellow Daoist above also a casual cultivator in the territory of the Dawu Dynasty? If so, come down to rest and exchange some information."

The cultivator thought for a moment, slowly lowered the flying sword, and landed in front of everyone. Everyone stood up at the same time and greeted each other. This was considered a greeting.

The fat monk took a step forward and took a look at the monk. He saw that the monk was at the tenth level of Qi training. He was wearing a gray robe, thin, dark-skinned, and ordinary-looking. There was still a hint of childishness between his eyebrows. He was clearly a teenager of sixteen or seventeen years old. There was a solemn look in his eyes.

Not only did the fat monk's attitude change, but even the people present did not dare to underestimate this monk. After all, no one wanted to easily offend a sixteen or seventeen-year-old Qi training tenth-level monk with unlimited potential in the future.

This monk was Ye Zhou who traveled day and night to get here!

The fat monk smiled at Ye Zhou, and his tone became much softer. "My name is Wugen. May I ask what this fellow Taoist's name is?"

Ye Zhou said calmly, "My last name is Wu."

Monk Wugen nodded and said familiarly, "So it's fellow Taoist Wu. I wonder if fellow Taoist Wu is going to the imperial capital of Shengyun?"

Ye Zhou nodded and admitted it. At first, he thought that this group of people were sent by Fairy Xiyu, but seeing that these people's cultivation levels were uneven, and they were dressed differently and behaved casually, he guessed that they were casual cultivators.

And Ye Zhou saw that the one with the highest cultivation level among them was only at the twelfth level of Qi training, which posed no threat to him. Only then did he feel relieved to come down and talk with them, and by the way, he inquired about the customs and habits of Shengyun Country, so as not to commit taboos in the imperial capital in the future.

Monk Wugen and others saw Ye Zhou nod, and the smiles on their faces became even stronger.

Monk Wugen said happily: "Great, we are all independent cultivators in the Dawu Dynasty, and we are also going to the capital of Shengyun Kingdom. I wonder if you are willing to go with us? We can also take care of you on the way."

Ye Zhou has always been used to being alone. He just wants to find out some news about Shengyun Kingdom and has no intention of traveling with others. But before he can refuse, Monk Wugen asked with a smile: "May I ask if you have an identity jade certificate?"

Ye Zhou's eyes flashed with doubt: "Is the identity jade certificate? What is that?"

Ye Zhou had never heard of it. Xue Mei of Wanbao Auction House had never mentioned the identity jade certificate to Ye Zhou. The reason is that Xue Mei believes that Ye Zhou has an extraordinary origin and may have an identity jade certificate on him.

Monk Wugen then said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Wu has never left the Dawu Dynasty."

Just as Monk Wugen wanted to explain to Ye Zhou what the identity jade book was, he saw a beautiful figure quickly walked in front of Monk Wugen and stood between Monk Wugen and Ye Zhou.

The person who came was Madam Huayue who was standing beside him.

Madam Huayue saw that Ye Zhou was young and promising, and her mind became more active. She secretly sent Ye Zhou several glances, but Ye Zhou was only concerned with chatting with Monk Wugen and did not look at Madam Huayue. Madam Huayue was anxious, so she took the liberty to step forward and wanted to talk to Ye Zhou.

Madam Huayue stopped, pinched her orchid fingers to cover her mouth, and gave Ye Zhou a shy smile.

Little did she know that when she raised her hand, a strong smell of powder rushed into Ye Zhou's nose, which made Ye Zhou frown slightly. He took a few steps back without leaving a trace to avoid the smell of powder, and then he felt better.

Ye Zhou endured the discomfort and ignored Madam Huayue. Instead, he looked at the monk Wugen standing behind her. However, the monk Wugen was too short and was completely invisible to Madam Huayue.

Madam Huayue explained to Ye Zhou softly, "Fellow Daoist Wu, you don't know that in order to maintain the order and stability of the immortal world on the Linghuan Continent, the four sects and three schools stipulate that the casual cultivators who practice on the Linghuan Continent must hold the corresponding identity jade certificate before they can travel freely among the countries on this Linghuan Continent."

Ye Zhou's eyes moved to Madam Huayue again and asked patiently, "If you don't have this identity jade certificate, you can't walk on the Linghuan Continent?"

Ye Zhou thought to himself, if so, I'm afraid things will be much more troublesome. Where should he get this identity jade certificate?

Madam Huayue held the round fan in her hand and said, "That's not the case. It's just that it's quite inconvenient for us casual cultivators to go out without this identity jade certificate."

"There are many immortal cultivation sects and aristocratic families on this spiritual continent. When passing through their jurisdiction, they have the right to ask to see our identity jade certificates. If there is no jade certificate, you have to accept their questioning, which may take a few hours at least, or ten days and a half months at most. Only if there is no problem can you pass freely."

Ye Zhou frowned even deeper when he heard this. His current identity was not visible to others. If he accepted the interrogation, once someone found anything wrong, wouldn't it be dangerous?

Madam Huayue saw that Ye Zhou's face was heavy, and smiled again: "So, we invited fellow Daoist Wu to go with us, so that we can have someone to take care of us along the way."

Ye Zhou asked again: "But do you have the identity jade certificate in your hand?"

Madam Huayue smiled and shook her head: "No, that identity jade book is not that easy to get. Except for those casual cultivators who are on good terms with the four sects and three schools, ordinary casual cultivators need to spend a lot of money to buy it if they want to get the identity jade book, and they may not be able to buy it."

Ye Zhou nodded silently.

At this time, Madam Huayue slightly turned aside and pointed at the monk Wugen who was blocked behind her and said: "Fellow Daoist Wu, don't be disappointed. Although we don't have the identity jade book, most of the sects and aristocratic families on the way to the imperial capital have some relationship with monk Wugen."

Ye Zhou looked at monk Wugen again, and monk Wugen smiled, clasped his hands together, and nodded to him.

Madam Huayue asked again: "Is Daoyou Wu willing to go with us now?"

Ye Zhou thought for a moment, looked at Monk Wugen and asked: "If I join you, what do I need to do? I hope you can tell me clearly."

Monk Wugen explained: "We are forced to travel together. The journey to the imperial capital is very long. It is inevitable that we will encounter some immortal cultivation families who want to collect tolls. If there are more of us, they will not dare to bully us."

So that's it, Ye Zhou nodded suddenly.

Then Ye Zhou asked again: "I wonder which sects are the four sects and three schools you mentioned?"

Madam Huayue, who was standing aside, said first: "The four sects and three schools are Feiyun Sect, Chixia Sect, Wanyun Sect, Lingshou Sect, Miaodan Sect, Qingsha Sect, and Wanjian Sect."
