Lu Yang backed off a couple of steps silently, making it clear that he had no intention of removing the talisman. This way, even if Eldest Senior Sister were to fall from the sky, he could deny any association.

The phrase of not staying under a crumbling wall probably applies to this situation.

The talisman left by Eldest Senior Sister did not have any fluctuation of spiritual essence. It wasn’t dangerous to remove it, but Lu Yang dared not to do it.

Only if he was tired of living would he peel that talisman off.

Master, it’s not that your disciple isn’t filial, but he only has one life. Plus, there’s an immortal in his Spiritual Space. If Eldest Senior Sister beats me to death, it’d be a two-for-one deal, not worth it.

Seeing Lu Yang being hesitant, raising his hand and then putting it down,

Daoist Buyu could guess his concerns.

Lu Yang wasn’t the first to react this way. He wasn’t surprised and chuckled, “It’s normal if you don’t know much about me. You can ask other elders about me. You’ll have a better understanding, and you’ll know that I’m not lying.”

“Just don’t tell them about Xiao Yun imprisoning me. Xiao Yun has been managing the Seek Dao Sect for ten years, not all elders may side with me.”

Lu Yang felt that his master had a point. He only knew his master as Daoist Buyu but never really understood what kind of person he was. Perhaps this was an opportunity. Thinking like this, he left the pine forest.

After Lu Yang left, Daoist Buyu scratched his head. He’d asked several people to remove the talisman, but none wanted to do it.

“What’s on the talisman that scares them so much?” He craned his neck to see, but couldn’t make out what the talisman looked like.

Lu Yang returned to the Task Hall again, only to be told that the Grand Elder was out and not in the sect. Lu Yang, feeling helpless, went to the Teaching Peak where the Second Elder resided.

The Teaching Peak was responsible for teaching basic cultivation knowledge. Lu Yang had crammed there for a month when he first joined the Seek Dao Sect, but he had never seen the Second Elder.

“Senior Brother, is the Second Elder here?” Lu Yang asked the disciple who was

on duty at Teaching Peak.

The Senior Brother looked at Lu Yang with odd eyes, “You’re looking for Second Elder? You should go to the medicine garden. The one laying at the entrance is him.”

Lu Yang was stunned, not expecting that Uncle Ba who instructed him to dig soil was the Second Elder.

He thanked the Senior Brother and went to the medicine garden where he

indeed found Uncle Ba.

“Hmm? You want to come dig soil again?” Uncle Ba asked with a smile.

“No, I just wanted to ask about my master.”

“Air, Old Nine, of course I know.” The moment Uncle Ba mentioned this, he perked up.

“Old Nine?”

“Yep, from the Grand Elder you know, to the Eighth Elder, and then to your master Daoist Buyu, we were all taught by the same master. Your master is the youngest and was the last to join our sect. He’s ranked ninth.”

“Old Nine is a real chatterbox, he blabs non-stop all day. Have you ever seen ‘Introduction to Crosstalk’ on the first floor of Scripture Pavilion? That was donated by Old Nine.”

Lu Yang nodded, he remembered clearly. He was stunned for a while when he saw ‘Introduction to Crosstalk’ in the Scripture Pavilion, thinking he had entered the wrong place.

“Later, our master got tired of hearing Old Nine talk all the time, so he gave him the name Daoist Buyu, hoping that he would talk less.”

Lu Yang: “Did it work?”

“Nope. Old Nine said ‘one should not speak of strange prodigies and violence, so as long as he doesn’t speak about such things, he’s fine’, and then just kept on talking. His damn mouth really needs to be sewn shut.”

“But Old Nine’s cultivation talent is the strongest among us nine. Of course, he can’t compare to Yun Zhi. I reckon Yun Zhi’s talent is quite rare throughout time.”

“After our master went into seclusion, the nine of us decided who would become the Sect Leader. The eight of us unanimously agreed that Old Nine should take the position. With his eloquence, Old Nine would definitely do a good job. He flatly refused, so we said that whoever has the most strength becomes the Sect Leader, and he agreed.”

“So, the eight of us ganged up on him and beat him up to force him to become the Sect Leader.”

Lu Yang then remembered his master mentioning about the “tough battle”.

That wasn’t wrong.

“The eight of us indeed have good judgment. Old Nine has great management skills. He managed the sect in an orderly manner and dusted off the gloomy atmosphere from before. This might be related to his personality.”

“And then, for some reason, Yun Zhi suddenly appeared, announcing that she was taking charge of the sect. We thought that the future would belong to the young people anyway. It would be good for her to take over early, so why not.

“As for where Old Nine went, we didn’t pay it any mind. After all, we are all nearly two thousand years old with minds sharper than youngsters. No matter where he hops around, he can’t get lost, can he?”

From the perspective of Uncle Ba, a great power cultivator, ten years was not a long time.

After bidding farewell to Uncle Ba, Lu Yang arrived at the Body Refinement

Peak and found the Third Elder.

Meng Jingzhou was at the Body Refinement Peak. With his help, Lu Yang quickly located the Third Elder.

The Third Elder was playing chess in the field with the progenitor of the Green- eyed Buffalos.

The Third Elder was a short and stocky man, and Lu Yang couldn’t relate him to being a top body cultivator.

Lu Yang knew that the Third Elder concealed a terrifying power within him. For him, moving mountains and sea was just a piece of cake.

His creation, the “Shocking Heaven Six Forms”, was highly sought-after by all body cultivators. Countless people dreamt of getting a chance to learn even a little bit of it. Not many could achieve the privilege of being his disciple.

Lu Yang also tried to look for the ten buffalos that he had once summoned in the field, only to find that all buffalos looked alike, indistinguishable from each other.

“You’re asking about Old Nine? Haha, glad you asked me! Old Nine was picked up by me on the mountain and I raised him!” The Third Elder claimed as if it was Lu Yang’s fortune to have asked him.

Meng Jingzhou quietly reminded him from the side, “Master, it s brought up , not ‘raisedup’.”

The Third Elder waved him off impatiently, “It’s all the same, don’t always be nitpicking like Old Four.”

“Old Nine is famously smart, he was the first among us nine to master the magic skill Big and Small Ruyi.”

“Big and Small Ruyi is a magic skill that enlarges or shrinks the body. Old Nine wondered, could he modify it to make only parts of the body grow bigger or smaller? Not too big; growing an inch or two is enough. It would be easy to handle and require less magical energy. This would definitely be very popular among men and women. Men would change their lower body, and women would change their upper body.”

“Working on this idea, he indeed figured it out.” The Third Elder slapped his thigh in admiration of Daoist Buyu’s genius idea.

“He then wrote a new magic skill book called ‘Wish Granting Technique. Local Version’. Once it was out, people went crazy to buy it. He earned so many spirit stones at that time that even when we dropped spirit stones on the ground while dining out and ordering the most expensive dishes, we didn’t bother picking them up.”

“Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long. The Great Xia Dynasty soon put a stop to this magic skill and banned its sale.”

“Why?”

“They said it’s obscene.”

Lu Yang: “…They’re not wrong.
