I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 740: Chapter 687: Yuebai’s Diary (2)

[Wuwu, Year of the Horse, Eighth Day of the Twelfth Lunar Month]

Is it more terrifying to be used as a chess piece or to have one’s embarrassing stories known?

After careful consideration, being used as a chess piece at worst leads to death, but can leave a legacy and reputation among the living. When future generations speak of me, they’ll praise True Monarch Wangshu as a hero.

But if my embarrassing stories are known and become a laughing stock passed down through generations...

I feel even if I die, I would not be at peace and would risk soul obliteration to come back from the Netherworld to kill all who know of my embarrassment.

In this way, I finally understand why Second Junior Brother, Shi Xiaowu, fainted directly after coming out of seclusion when Li Shen Zhi spoke of the dream realm, and why he cried in the house for over a month.

As a respectable Golden Core Master, he cried to the point of fainting multiple times, nearly suffered from Deviation. Fortunately, True Monarch Cang Huo was by his side and helped him manage his breath, while also kindly advising Shi Xiaowu to learn from Li Shen Zhi.

As long as you don’t feel embarrassed yourself, no one can make you embarrassed.

Shi Xiaowu was also grateful to True Monarch Cang Huo, not knowing that initially, Cang Huo was the most enthusiastic spectator.

I seriously suspect that True Monarch Cang Huo was ’eager’ in order to record the subsequent events.

Seeing Shi Xiaowu, my state of mind became more open. Why fear death? As long as I am not disgraced, going out with a bang is enough!

My master said I build my happiness on Shi Xiaowu’s pain, but he himself is clearly black-hearted.

Back then, I don’t know who it was who asked Shi Xiaowu upon seeing him, ’Potian, as your master, my heart aches, why do you think that just two Nascent Souls can severely injure me to near death? Is your master so useless in your eyes?’

Then Li Shen Zhi added fuel to the fire, saying ’Potian, as your brother, my heart also aches, why do you always make your brother your backdrop?’

Poor Shi Xiaowu, luckily in his dream, I am still great, bright, righteous, insurmountable, an existence only to be admired, otherwise I would also have to go up and say, ’Potian, Senior Sister’s heart aches too...’

Hahaha, this must be Thorn’s intention!

If in Shi Xiaowu’s dream realm, I was defeated by him, it definitely would feel humiliating, so in Shi Xiaowu’s dream realm, I am always someone he cannot surpass, always a target he chases.

Fortunately, Qii Yue felt for Shi Xiaowu and invited him to go on a mission together, allowing Shi Xiaowu to temporarily escape the predicament. Looking at Qii Yue, I believe that when they return, their relationship will have changed.

This time, Shi Xiaowu broke through to rebuild, and in the future, whether in cultivation path or state of mind, he will surely reach a higher level.

Really nice, being in the Sect, at Heavenly Cry Peak, I feel even more relaxed and at ease.

The Fuyao Immortal Conference has spread throughout the Earth Spiritual Realm, and various places have been discussing this matter.

Those unaware of the details wonder why the Heavenly Interence Sect would widely invite elite members from various sects to compete on the same stage.

Those in the know have already brought gifts and paid visits.

Even this winter, the Heavenly Interence Sect is bustling both inside and out, and even Nangu Market is crowded with cultivators from all over, leaving almost no space to stay.

Fortunately, my master was prepared, having Qii Ming lead craftsmen from the sect to build large guest residences all over Qingyun Ridge before the end of last year.

Also, with Qii Yue, a senior disciple of True Monarch Baiyan, and other puppet disciples assisting by controlling puppets for construction, and the designs by Shi Xiaowu, these guest houses were completed quickly.

Qii Yue and Qii Ming would always intentionally call Shi Xiaowu ’Potian’, and previously, when others called him Potian, Shi Xiaowu’s breath would become erratic, and he would be shamefully embarrassed. But when Qii Yue called him, he’d just giggle foolishly.

I also helped by manufacturing large construction armors of the Zhuge Family type to chop through mountains and consolidate foundations; these new armors caught the fancy of Qii Yue and True Monarch Baiyan, and they asked me for guidance.

I deliberately left them hanging, telling them to visit the Zhuge Family in the Nine Rivers Realm for advice later.

The preparation for the Fuyao Immortal Conference is methodical, and if things go well, we can officially start by this time next year.

[Jiyi, Year of the Sheep, Twentieth Day of the Sixth Lunar Month]

For half a year, Jixiang, along with Danggui and Mountain Lord Qionglin, has been chasing each other and cultivating in the mountains every day, causing chaos, while the toad at the entrance of Huaxi Valley that only knows how to sleep also came out to watch.

Jixiang, for survival, Danggui and Mountain Lord to capture Jixiang, and the toad for a better view of the show, each of their cultivations has been steadily improving, showing great momentum!

My master is busy dealing with all sides, and I can’t be much help, so during my closed-door cultivation, I also give lectures in the Dharma Hall within the sect.
