87 Wang Lu Enters the Marquis County; Wen Baos First Test on Sexual Intercourse Situation (1/2)

Early the next morning, the three people rushed to Marquis County.

Marquis County was an insignificant small county town in the Eastern Way Prefecture of the Great Ming Country, however, its population reached thousands of people. Moreover, long ago, this Marquis County was the battlefield where the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals fought against wild beasts. Thus, the surrounding spiritual energy in this place became turbid and disorderly. In such a place, finding Wei Wenqing’s contact person would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

Fortunately, heaven never bars one’s way; Wang Lu quickly found another way.

“Excuse me, do you know where the immortal teacher of the Seven Stars Sect is?”

At the main commercial street in Marquis County, Wang Lu stopped one of the migrants, handed over a few taels of silver, and got a satisfactory answer.

“Oh, the immortal teacher? He’s staying in the County Lord’s Guests Courtyard. He is the County Lord’s distinguished guest.”

This answer far exceeded their expectation.

After sending away the migrant, Wang Lu nodded with satisfaction. “Not bad, it seems like people in Marquis County do have some knowledge.”

The Lady Boss asked, “What knowledge?”

“You guys didn’t notice? For the same four stars emissary, the villagers in the Wang Family Village would call him Daoist Immortal, while here, it’s just immortal teacher. Moreover, he’s only a guest in the county’s magistrate. So, obviously, Immortal Cultivators are not uncommon here, that’s why I said people here at least have this knowledge.”

The Lady Boss nodded in approval. “This place used to be an ancient battlefield, so there should be a lot of legends about Immortal Cultivators. Consequently, the people here would not find the Immortal Cultivation World strange… So, what are you going to do? Directly go to that place and use force to get his confession?”

Wang Lu was surprised. “Where did you get such a silly idea? Now we don’t even know that person’s name or whether that person has other partners or not. All we have is his identity as a four stars emissary. If we rashly crash their place, it would only ruin our plan! You’re simply foolhardy.”

“... I really don’t want to be judged as foolhardy by you, this idiot.”

Even though she said that, Lady Boss actually respected Wang Lu’s opinion.

Because now, Wang Lu was obviously in his professional adventurer mode, with a clear vision and calm mind. Away from the Wang Family Village, where his emotional attachment to the village clouded his judgment, his mood gradually eased, and his thought and conduct had returned to when he was still in the Spirit Sword Mountain—such Wang Lu was indeed dependable.

“That is to say, we should probe it first?”

“That’s right. We have the rare advantage of being in the dark, while the enemy in the light. If we don’t take this opportunity to know the real situation, it would be too wasteful… Wen Bao, we need you to step up this time.”

Wen Bao, who has just come from buying two steamed cakes from a roadside peddler, gawked. “Me?”

“Yes, you. I want you to go to that place, and tell them that you’re a wandering loose immortal cultivator. Right now, you happen to pass by their place and are looking for a temporary residence to stay for a period of time. When they let you in, greet that Seven Stars Sect's cultivator and then take the opportunity to probe his actual situation.”

Wen Bao felt the mouth-watering steamed cake in his mouth hardened, which made it difficult for him to swallow it. “Senior Brother, isn’t this task a bit too hard?”

“Sh*t! No matter what, you’re an inner court disciple of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortal’s Five Unique; what’s so hard in dealing with some trash level tramps? Right now, my identity is already exposed, and Sister Ling is not a cultivator, so she can’t pose as one; except for you, who else could do this?”

Seeing that Wen Bao still looked hesitant, Wang Lu directly came up with a killer move.

“Junior Sister Yue, she…”

“Okay Senior Brother, I get it. I’ll go now!”

After swallowing the two steamed cake at once, the fatty, with the spirit of “viewing death as a return home”, directly left for the county magistrate’s guest courtyard.

——

“Stop! How dare you…”

Before the two sturdy guards standing at the door finished their words, they immediately swallowed the rest of it back.

Before them stood a fat person with average height. On his fingertips appeared a wisp of flame. Its color changed from red to blue, and from blue to white… Although this was merely a simple skill, it has fully displayed his identity.

An Immortal Cultivator.

Marquis County was unlike the remote Wang Family Village that haven’t seen the world. Centuries ago, this place was the battlefield where the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals fought the wild beasts. Thus, members of the Immortal Cultivation World weren’t too uncommon to be seen. Occasionally, they would even encounter a passing Daoist Master, however… a cultivator was still a cultivator, so by no means these two guards could afford to offend one.

“Excuse me, may I know your purpose on looking for my Master?”

The fatty closed his hands and retracted his magical power. In his heart, he could not help but feel smug. Even if the other Spirit Sword Sect disciples thought that this skill was useless, and even if he took the way of the sword, specializing in one sword break all the spells, this skill, which could easily be learned by almost any cultivator who specialized in spell casting, could actually still be used to bluff his way in the mortal world.

More importantly, he knew that this skill absolutely could not be used by Senior Brother Wang Lu; Wang Lu’s path was even more extreme than him; even after reaching level seventh Qi Cultivating Stage, Wang Lu could not even cast even a single Immortal Cultivation spell...

“I’m not looking for your Master, but for the Immortal Teacher from the Seven Stars Sect.”

The fatty tried his best to make his voice sound low and deep, in order to pose as a person with high skill. According to his Senior Disciple, this Seven Stars Sect emissary’s cultivation was, at most, high-level Qi Cultivating Stage; even though it was several times higher than himself, if they fought a close range fight, his Black Iron Sword could still cleave that emissary in two.

There was nothing to be afraid of.

The two guards looked at each other, and then the person on the right nodded. “Please come with me.”

Currently, in the magistrate’s guest house, there was only one cultivator, which was the Seven Stars Sect’s cultivator, and the rest were several servants and guards. That guard led Wen Bao all the way to the main room, however, before they even reached the door, they heard a voice from the inside.

“Yuan San, didn’t I tell you not to bother me if there’s nothing important?”

Cold sweat immediately poured out of the forehead of that guard named Yuan San; he immediately kneeled. “Re-report Immortal Teacher, there’s a passing Immortal Teacher looking for you, so…”

“Oh? A passing Immortal Teacher? Bring him in.”

Yuan San immediately stood up and, without daring to look at Wen Bao behind him, tremblingly walked forward, and then lowered his head in front of the door, not moving even an inch.
