Chapter 204: This speed is fast to the point of being incurable!
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
On the screen relaying the image from the surveillance camera, Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist seemed to be in the mood for composing poems. Song Shuhang couldn’t help but shoot a look at True Monarch Yellow Mountain.
‘Stupid Yellow Mountain’ was something that Doudou kept repeating every day. However, Doudou was True Monarch Yellow Mountain’s cute little pet. Even if he kept repeating this sentence, True Monarch wouldn't get angry and would only find him silly and lovable.
But the Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist in front of their eyes was a middle-aged man and not in the least someone cute. After hearing him repeat ‘stupid Yellow Mountain’ over and over again, wouldn’t True Monarch get the urge to punch him to death?
”Hehehe. It seems I’ll need to let him have a taste of my improved Five Fingers Mountain Sealing Technique. This time, I’ll seal him till he dies of old age!” True Monarch Yellow Mountain got angry and sneered.
Song Shuhang observed three seconds of silence for Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist...
On the screen, he saw that Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist was frozen in place. He raised his head and looked all around. He seemed anxious and was often looking around.
However, since True Monarch Yellow Mountain had increased the amount of fog in the area, Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist couldn't actually see through this cloudy mist. He was looking all around, unable to understand where he was.
”Why do I have a bad premonition after coming out? Did that Yellow Mountain fellow prepare a trap to welcome me?” Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist talked to himself.
But it doesn’t matter anymore. This Daoist has already broken through the seal. From now on, I’m a free man!
”Sword, come!” Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist lightly shouted. A sword orb came out of his tattered sleeve, changing into a sword of light. Then, he stepped on the light and flew toward the sky.
”I wish to ride the wind and return home~ and travel a thousand miles with the sword light~ taking enemy heads like chicken heads~”
From this nonsensical poem, one could understand that Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist was fond of ancient poetry and songs but had no talent whatsoever in composing such. In addition, he had been sealed for a long time, and his clothes were in tatters. He didn’t resemble a scholarly man at all.
Looking at Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist who was getting further and further away, Song Shuhang quickly asked, ”True Monarch, aren’t you planning to catch him to seal him again?”
”There is no rush.” True Monarch Yellow Mountain smiled evilly and continued, ”If I were to catch him right now and seal him, wouldn’t I be too merciful? I’m planning to let him free for a few days, letting him have a taste of this beautiful modern world. And once he falls in love with this modern world, I’ll catch and seal him. He’ll be even more grieved after knowing how beautiful the outside world is!”
To explain this with an example—let’s a.s.sume there is a man that has never had contact with the Internet. The man has only read novels and watched the TV; he’s quite happy with this type of life.
But then, he comes in contact with the Internet and falls in love with it. If he’s deprived of it even for a day, he’ll start to feel uncomfortable. But one day, his Internet connection or the computer breaks. If it’s only for one or two days, he can cope with it, but if it goes on any longer, he might turn insane.
”Moreover, I placed a device on Cloudy Mist’s body. He won’t be able to escape from my grasp.” True Monarch Yellow Mountain said confidently.
Song Shuhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva— I better not offend True Monarch Yellow Mountain. Otherwise, I won’t end up well.
Then, True Monarch Yellow Mountain, Venerable White, and Song Shuhang watched as Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist was getting further and further away.
However, Penniless Thief Sect’s Little Candy was staring at Venerable White. Her head filled with the tales of ‘the love-hate relations.h.i.+p between a disciple of the Penniless Thief Sect and an incredibly handsome senior cultivator’.
It seemed that Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist’s matter had temporarily come to an end.
Would Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist finally find happiness?

Not long after Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist left, a sword light flashed through the sky and quickly approached.
Soon after, Seven’s tall and big silhouette descended from the sky.
”Little Friend Shuhang!” He looked at Song Shuhang and smiled brightly. But when he saw that True Monarch Yellow Mountain and Venerable White were also there, his face twitched a little.
However, he still kept his smiling face and greeted them.
”Senior Seven, you were fast. This is the disciple of the Limitless Demon Sect I was talking about. Senior White and Senior Yellow Mountain already took care of him,” said Song Shuhang while pointing at Branch Leader Jing Mo who was lying on a side.
”This time I really have to thank you, Little Friend Shuhang!” Seven moved forward with large strides and arrived in front of Branch Leader Jing Mo. Then, he searched his body. He retrieved a few small and big bottles, a jet-black flying sword, and a ball of mist.
He pressed against these things with his palm, temporarily sealing them. Next, he threw them at Song Shuhang and said, ”Little Friend Song Shuhang, take these. After a month or two, once I’m done dealing with this guy and his branch, you’ll be able to use them. At the time, they’ll change into ownerless items, and you’ll be able to use them without worries.”
Flying swords and other magical treasures usually carried a brand. If the owner of the treasure wasn’t dead, you wouldn’t be able to use it.
Deleting the brand of the original owner was rather troublesome. Therefore, Seven decided to use the simpler method, a seal. After a few days, when he was done dealing with Branch Leader Jing Mo, the brand would disappear, and Song Shuhang would be able to use them.
”Little Friend Song Shuhang, I’ll bid you farewell now! Wait for Immortal Fairy Bie Xue’s ‘Immortal Feast’. I’ll come look for you at the time!” With that, Su Clan’s Seven got a hold of Branch Leader Jing Mo and prepared to leave.
After bidding farewell to True Monarch Yellow Mountain and Venerable White, he left with a ”whiz” sound, quickly disappearing at the horizon.
Once he was a certain distance away, Seven murmured, ”I had forgotten that Little Friend Shuhang was together with Senior White these days. I almost shat myself. Thank G.o.d I managed to escape quickly.”
❄️❄️❄️
”Senior Yellow Mountain, we’ll go our way then!” Song Shuhang said while taking his leave.
True Monarch Yellow Mountain said with a smile, ”Then, I’ll trouble you to look after Doudou for a few more days. Once I catch and seal Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist again, I’ll come and take him back!”
