I Have Refined Qi For 3000 Years! Book 5: Chapter 1: Food and Housing

Book 5: Chapter 1: Food and Housing

The world was always unpredictable, even someone like Bai Qiuran couldn’t know what would happen in the future.

Just five years after the Wise Immortal Mansion incident, Su Xiangxue came to him and informed him of incredible news.

“The demon emperor has pa.s.sed away.”

The sect leader of the Kamasutra Sect spoke of her biological father, but her tone was like she’s mentioning a stranger.

“Until his death, he hadn’t issued an edict to appoint the heir to the throne. This time the demon clan will start to mess up.”

Hearing her words, Bai Qiuran was stunned for a moment. The demon emperor’s death was due to the exhaustion of his lifespan, but it was not unrelated to him.

In the battle nearly two thousand years ago, he pushed the demon emperor to a desperate situation, forcing the latter to launch a life-consuming secret method to fight against him, and the demon emperor was still defeated in humiliation.

He had to flee back to the demon world, while his son and his subordinates were killed by Bai Qiuran. The secret method, serious injuries, and the blow caused by the death of his son made this demon emperor die so fast. For the demon clan who generally lived longer, it was a premature death, not to mention that the demon emperor was still a nine-headed dragon that inherited the blood of the original demon emperor.

“But the monster clan is in a mess, isn’t our work of collecting intelligence to…”

Bai Qiuran thought.

“It’s helpless. Human is already hard to live in the Demon Realm, and the demon spy developed by our Sect has to hide to avoid the coming war. I am afraid that only one-tenth of the original intelligence personnel can stay in the Demon Realm.”

Su Xiangxue replied:

“As the sect leader, I can’t push my people into the fire pit of war.”

“Yes, it has to be so.”

Bai Qiuran thought for a moment.

“I also have to get the intelligence personnel of Qingming Sword Sect to come back first. If nothing else happens, I will wait until the demon clan finishes this civil war.”

“Rest a.s.sured, this civil war will not last long.”

Su Xiangxue said with relief:

“The demon emperor is old and cunning. I don’t believe he hasn’t left any preparation behind. Although he has not established an heir, he must have left a will. Maybe this civil war is his ritual for choosing an heir.”

“Hey.”

At this moment, Wise Immortal, who was placed aside by Bai Qiuran, suddenly interrupted:

“It should be said that this civil war is 100% a ritual to select the new demon emperor … There is no legacy left. The initiation of the fight is to give the long-appointed heirs time to grow. Before he died, the demon emperor must have arranged some demon kings who were loyal to the new emperor. Once the civil war begins, taking advantage of the chaos, his people can take the opportunity to get rid of the dissidents and help the true heir to raise to the upper position… I heard from Old Bai that this generation of Demon Emperor seems to have taken advantage of the war between humans and devils to invade the Nine Provinces and Ten Lands. Those stupid demons are always repeating the same mistakes.”

“Don’t say that.”

Su Xiangxue corrected:

“If Bai Qiuran hadn’t been born in the last war, Nine Provinces and Ten Lands would be really no match to the demon army. After all, the supernatural powers of the last era were cut off by your apprentice.”

Wise Immortal suddenly became dumb, after a long pause, he had to say:

“Then it can only be said that Heaven blessed our human race.”

“Heaven blesses you, but it wants me to die.”

Bai Qiuran glanced at Wise Immortal.

Wise Immortal suddenly said nothing.

“Correct.”

Su Xiangxue looked around as if remembering something, and asked:

“Where did Ruowei go?”

“Oh, she is in a closed-door cultivation.”

Bai Qiuran said in a tone of envy, jealousy, and hatred:

“That little girl, she’s already breaking through the Golden Core stage, yuck!”

“She’s your disciple after all.”

Su Xiangxue stared at Bai Qiuran who was spitting to the side, then clapped her hands:

“In that case, do you want to be a guest in my place?”

“What?”

Bai Qiuran was stunned for a moment and asked:

“Why?”

“I still have a few moles in the demon race, maybe they can find news about the imperial tomb in this civil war.”

Su Xiangxue’s eyes wandered, her cheeks were reddish, and her tone was stiff as if she was reading a script.

“Look, if they have any news, you can know it right away… Besides, you stay on the mountain to study the magic methods of Land Immortals. You can do it anywhere, can’t you?”

“It seems…that makes sense.”

Bai Qiuran thoughtfully.

“Yes, right.”

Su Xiangxue nodded and said:

“It’s not convenient for me to stay here. I am the Sect Master of Kamasutra Sect after all, and you are the senior of Qingming Sword Sect. No one can control where you want to go to.”

“Do you offer food and housing?”

Bai Qiuran asked finally.

“Of course, I can also invite you to drink the One-Night Stand wine.”

Su Xiangxue smiled.

“That’s it.”

Bai Qiuran grabbed Wise Immortal, hung it around his waist, and said solemnly:

“Let’s go.”

He left a letter on the table in his room, telling Tang Ruowei where he was going, and then followed Su Xiangxue to leave the Gu Province and head to the headquarters of the Kamasutra Sect.

The headquarters of the Kamasutra Sect was located at the same place as the headquarters of Jade Tower – Yun Province, the most prosperous one among Nine Provinces. The two sects respectively control the two wealthiest countries in Yun Province, and the headquarters were built on the best spiritual land in the country. Unlike other sects’ policy of hiding, both sects established a magnificent giant city as their headquarters on the spiritual land, surrounding this giant city and developing around many prosperous satellite cities and towns. People said that these two headquarters were several times more prosperous than the capital of the two countries.

Fortunately, the purpose of the two sects was that the business was bigger than the faction, so they could coexist peacefully in Yun Province, and even occasionally have relatively large business contacts.

Following Su Xiangxue, Bai Qiuran naturally went unimpeded all the way, but because of the old witch of the previous generation, Bai Qiuran himself still has a little preconceived bad impression of this place.

After all, when he came here last time, it was still a place full of blood, violence, and stubbornness, like purgatory on earth, so when Su Xiangxue occasionally invited Bai Qiuran to stay, he only lived in other courtyards in other places.

But this time, after hundreds of years of absence, following Su Xiangxue in, Bai Qiuran was surprised to find that the disciple of the Kamasutra Sect inside would dress well.

It seemed that Su Xiangxue’s reforms over the past hundreds of years have been fruitful.

Seeing Bai Qiuran, the disciples of the Kamasutra Sect were also very surprised. This was the first time they saw Su Xiangxue bring a man back to the headquarters since she became the sect leader.

The disciples whispered one after another, feeling that the sect leader had been enlightened, and they all agreed that once Su Xiangxue began to collect male essence, it’s only a matter of time before she surpa.s.sed Huangfu Feng and became the strongest in the Evil Alliance.

Some disciples who recognized Bai Qiuran and knew a little bit of inside information hurriedly ran to inform the other disciples who were personally pa.s.sed on to prepare for Su Xiangxue.
