Staying In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 31: Come Bite Me if You Dare

The tall and strong sword cultivator's nose twitched.

"Tianhe Senior Brother, why haven't you returned to the sect? You seem to be living a carefree life," he said.

The girl was looking at Old Ye with a lovesick expression, her eyes almost sparkling.

"Tianhe Senior Brother, I've missed you..." she said.

Ye Tianhe laughed and turned to point at Su Fan.

"These two junior brothers, this is a little brother I recently met. He's a pretty good person."

Su Fan stood up, smiled, and bowed to the two of them.

However, he couldn't understand why the two of them were looking at him with such strange eyes.

Little did he know, Ye Tianhe was a loner wherever he went.

Not to mention mixing with a low-level independent cultivator like him.

Both of them were a bit confused as to why this little independent cultivator caught Senior Brother's attention.

But Su Fan didn't care about that. He didn't have any intention of getting close to them.

He busied himself there, listening to the group of people drinking and chatting with his ears perked.

"Tianhe Senior Brother, you should have gone back to the sect directly. What's wrong with disabling those two Violet Heaven Sect scum? If it were me, I would have cut them down with a single sword."

The girl's tone was quite indignant, as if she was standing up for Senior Brother.

Su Fan could tell that there was a story behind this.

"That's right. When has our Sword Sect ever been afraid? What's wrong with the Central Plains Immortal Sect? They dare to provoke us sword cultivators, but we can easily wipe them out."

The tall and strong sword cultivator also had an indignant look.

Su Fan's gossip fire burned fiercely. He didn't expect that Old Ye had come here to take refuge.

"Haha, do you think I want to stay in this place where nothing ever happens? Can I disobey my master's words?" Su Fan was immediately unhappy after hearing Old Ye's words.

How can you say that? Your place is the place where nothing ever happens.

"Those Immortal Sects are up to no good. They fight with the Demon Sect, but always make us Sword Sect bear the brunt. Let me tell you, they can fight their own battles. What does it have to do with our Sword Sect?"

"That's right. Our Sword Sect helps them fight the Demon Sect, but they still point fingers at us. We're giving them face."

After hearing the complaints of the two people, Su Fan gained some new understanding of the situation in this world.

He originally thought that sword cultivators were also disciples of the Immortal Sects, but it seems that sword cultivators don't think so. They have always been independent from the Immortal Sects.

These sword maniacs came to Qin Country just to sharpen themselves and fight.

This world is not as peaceful as it seems. Even the surface is so complicated.

"I heard that Tianhe Senior Brother encountered Gu Qinghuan..."

"Yeah... I fought her once..."

"Tianhe Senior Brother, did you spare her because you thought she was pretty?"

"Don't go around spreading rumors. Ghost King Sect values Gu Qinghuan greatly. It is said that several old demons have almost emptied the sect just to cultivate her. This witch is not simple. We must not underestimate her in the future."

Su Fan was also quite surprised. It turns out that Gu Qinghuan is so powerful. Fortunately, his buddy escaped quickly.

So what if she's powerful? Come bite me if you dare.

"By the way, how did you guys come here?"

"Don't mention it. Some of the Demon Sect in Yong State are getting restless again. According to our senior brother inside the sect, it seems to be instigated by the True Demon Sect in Ganzhou and Lanzhou."

"The sword sects from Ganzhou and Lanzhou have sent people over. It is said that even the Immortal Sects from the Central Plains have sent people to Yong State."

Ye Tianhe took a sip of wine, his eyes filled with excitement.

"Hehe, after being calm for decades, it seems that Yong State is going to be chaotic again."

Su Fan didn't even need to look. From Old Ye's tone, he knew what expression he had on his face.

These sword maniacs can't stay calm, can they? Is fighting and killing so interesting?

Damn it, life is unbearable.

It seems that Western Wasteland has always been chaotic. The Immortal Sects and the Demon Sects are fiercely fighting, and even the Immortal Sects from the Central Plains are getting involved.

The situation is not good.

If things don't work out, it's better to leave this place of trouble.

Seeing the eager look on the faces of the two fellow disciples, Ye Tianhe waved his hand.

"Don't get too excited so early. At least for the next few years, there won't be any fighting between the two sides."

"Yeah, our senior brother in the sect also said that several immortal sects in the Central Plains and many demonic sects in the Western Wasteland will come to join in the fun. It's estimated that it won't start for a while."

"Hmph, those people from the immortal sect are troublesome. We can just kill our way through."

After hearing what Ye Tianhe and the others said, Su Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, in a few years, he had broken through to the Qi Refining Late Stage.

By then, he would have some self-defense power, at least not as vulnerable as he is now.

While Su Fan was lost in thought, the sword cultivator girl approached.

She squatted down next to Su Fan, holding a skewer of meat in her hand, her mouth greasy from eating.

"How did you get to know Senior Brother Tianhe?"

"How else could I get to know him? Just like that."

"That's impossible. Senior Brother Tianhe... he rarely talks to people on ordinary days..."

Su Fan understood the meaning behind the girl's words.

The meaning was, how could a low-level independent cultivator like you climb up to Senior Ye's high branch?

Su Fan smiled, turned his head, and leaned closer, whispering.

"Do you like Senior Ye?"

The girl jumped up as if she had been shocked by electricity, her face blushing like something.

She felt it was inappropriate and squatted back down.

"Don't talk nonsense, I... how could I..."

The girl stumbled over her words for a while, unable to say a complete sentence, and finally left in embarrassment.

Su Fan smiled. Although I can't beat you, I can still tease you.

The emotional intelligence of these sword cultivators is just so-so.

After a while, the girl approached again and muttered quietly.

"How did you know that I like Senior Brother?"

Su Fan rolled his eyes. Am I an idiot? Your infatuated look was written all over your face.

But he definitely couldn't say that. No matter what, he couldn't offend the sword cultivators.

"I guessed it. Senior Ye is so charming, you female cultivators must admire him."

The girl let out a sigh of relief, blushing shyly, feeling much better.

"Then please don't tell Senior Brother Tianhe."

Su Fan nodded. I'm so bored, I don't care about your trivial matters.

The three sword cultivators gathered together to drink, but Su Fan had no intention of joining them.

After grilling the skewers, Su Fan sat aside and ate his own, constantly pondering the information he had just heard.

He still needed to improve his cultivation speed as soon as possible.

According to what he heard from Senior Ye just now, the Western Wasteland has never been peaceful.

Yong State, where Su Fan is now, belongs to the northeastern border of the Western Wasteland.

The Central Plains immortal sect has been infiltrating Yong State, trying to prevent the Western Wasteland demonic sect from advancing eastward.

If it weren't for the strong support of the Central Plains immortal sect, Yong State would have long become the territory of the demonic sect.

Su Fan didn't care whether it was an immortal sect or a demonic sect. He just wanted to cultivate peacefully.

But based on the current situation, it's definitely not possible.

In a few years, there will definitely be a battle between the immortal sects and the demonic sects.

When immortals fight, mortals suffer.

As a low-level independent cultivator like Su Fan, how could he stay out of it?
