Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 191: Chapter 165: Even Divine Gaze Realm Experts Get Stripped

”Give you half a day?”

Han Yu mumbled, not expecting Sikong Du to be uninterested in the Seven-Seven Four-Turn Pill, but rather startled by the troublesome Awakening Ear Pill.

When he took out the Awakening Ear Pill, Sikong Du’s eyes lit up instantly, and after a brief moment of shock, he directly blocked him.

”Please definitely give me half a day, I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. If there’s no accident, the Imperial Court will want this pill, and they’re even willing to pay a high price to buy it from you.”

After sending a message quickly, Sikong Du returned to the main hall and guarded Han Yu directly, seemingly intending to follow him wherever he went.

He could see the pill’s effect; there was no way his Tower Master would fail to see it.

One could only say that the Awakening Ear Pill was too extraordinary; the Inspectorate would never allow this pill to leave his hands. From his perspective, as someone from the Inspectorate, as long as it wouldn’t kill anyone, someone must consume it.

”But I promised Brother Bai.”

Han Yu hesitated to speak; he’d grown accustomed to not finding anyone willing to take the pill. Now that they were coming to him and competing for the pill was genuinely unfamiliar.

Sikong Du waved his hand and said in a booming, muffled voice, ”Brother Bai indeed needs it, but this pill is more important to the Ascension Tower. Trust me, as soon as the tower receives my message, they’ll definitely respond immediately.”

”To say nothing of anything else, just for this pill, our Inspectorate can owe you a favor.”

These words carried a lot of weight, and Han Yu was incredibly surprised. He honestly did not expect that one pill could bring about the entire Inspectorate’s favor. This was indeed quite impressive.

”Brother Han, you might as well wait here for half a day and do an old friend a favor.”

Sikong Du leaned in, speaking in a kindly tone.

”Alright then!”

Han Yu nodded, thinking that it was just half a day anyway, plus Sikong Du wanted half a day, and Bai Bufen wanted a whole day. It seemed they didn’t conflict with each other.

Seeing Han Yu agree, Sikong Du finally beamed with a broad smile and laughed loudly.

At this time, the Palace Guard came running in quickly, looking exceedingly odd.

”Chief, something else happened!”

Just as Sikong Du’s mood had improved, his expression instantly sunk, and he spoke with furrowed brows.

”Damn it, not a single peaceful day. What’s happened this time?”

The Palace Guard quickly began explaining.

”Huaizhou Prefecture has another issue with a pervert!”

This time not only Sikong Du was stunned, but even Han Yu, sitting behind, was also taken aback.

Was the pervert in Huaizhou Prefecture really that rampant?

It’s one thing in broad daylight, but this uninhibited behavior, what’s the logic in it?

There were already many bare-bottomed people out there, yet even with such needs, they should have been satisfied!

The Palace Guard hurriedly explained that it was different this time; the pervert seemed no longer content with lurking outside Huaizhou City to target passing cultivators.

This time, it directly targeted the small and medium-sized sects within Huaizhou Prefecture. Many sects had consecutively come to file reports. It was said that any cultivator who came out from the mountain gate just a bit, or those returning to the mountain gate, were all knocked out one by one and then stripped of their clothes.

This incident caused a stir; Huaizhou City’s already tense situation became even more alarming, with townsfolk now unwilling to venture out. It’s not just the townsfolk; even the cultivators lingering in the city are no longer planning to leave.

They are genuinely scared, afraid of waking up stark naked the next moment after leaving the city, without knowing what happened in between.

Now, they all huddled together within the city, fearing that as long as the pervert didn’t disappear, they wouldn’t dare to step out of the city doors.

At this moment, Sikong Du had a splitting headache. The pervert had just caused trouble outside the city, and he hadn’t even had the chance to deal with it. How long had it been?

The pervert had already started causing trouble at the sects’ gates!

”Chief, it’s best if you personally go over; the elders representing those sects outside are causing a racket, demanding an explanation.”

The Palace Guard spoke helplessly, cupping his fists.

An explanation?

A pervert causing trouble at your gate, and you come to the Imperial Court for an explanation?

Sikong Du almost laughed out of anger, swinging his sleeves and striding outside. Han Yu, curiosity getting the better of him, naturally couldn’t miss this spectacle and hurriedly followed along.

In the outer courtyard, aside from the group of young cultivators who previously suffered misfortunes, there were now more than ten men in their forties.

They were now filled with righteous indignation, continuing to shout incessantly.

”A respectable Guardian Mansion, unable to catch people when the Corpse Refining Lineage came to plague Huaizhou Prefecture, causing many disciples of the sects to die or be injured for no reason, and now a few days later, doesn’t control this new situation in Huaizhou Prefecture.”

A man dressed in a plain blue robe spoke angrily and passionately.

”This must be the doing of an evil cultivator. How could we cultivators be outwitted by some mere specter, let alone such ghostly affairs in the world?”

One man finished speaking, and soon someone echoed his sentiment.

”You couldn’t catch the Corpse Refining Lineage, nor the demon plaguing Huaizhou Prefecture, so what’s the point of having you in the Imperial Court?”

”Nonsense!”

Sikong Du’s voice arrived before he did, shouting in anger as he strode out, glaring at a few people with fury on his face, and immediately mocked them.

”Whenever asked to help Huaizhou Prefecture a bit, you shirk and say you’re people beyond worldly matters, distant from the mundane.”

”Yet, you encounter problems and suddenly consider yourselves citizens of Huaizhou Prefecture.”

His words left the group silenced. After some time, a voice slowly spoke up.

”But our sects indeed can’t handle it. Being under Huaizhou Prefecture’s jurisdiction, the Imperial Court should manage us!”

If they had a solution, why would they come here to argue?

Let alone argue, just having ten or so Divine Gaze Realm cultivators come personally to report a case was already disgraceful enough.
