Chapter 0004

Yanli Mountain, Immortal Beast Garden

This particular garden was home to over 10 Immortal Cranes . These Immortal Cranes were extremely noble creatures . They refused to eat anything but delicacies, and could even eat the immortal treasures of the martial cultivators .

The Immortal Crane was a type of spiritual beast . It possessed the bloodline of a true immortal beast .

Legend had it that these immortal beasts were even more powerful than demons or devils . They could soar through the skies, unshackled to the earth, and were powerful enough to overturn seas . They were as mystically powerful as dragons, phoenixes, and qilins .

"Sun Wudao, who is this?" When Wu Yu arrived at the garden, a large group of tall and strong individuals immediately surrounded them . They did not seem to have pleasant looks on their faces . These individuals were young and strong . Furthermore, they had been tempered within the immortal sect for many years and had boundless vitality and energy .

"If these individuals were placed in the mortal world, all of them could become high-ranking generals!" thought Wu Yu in his heart .

"He is called Wu Yu . It is said that the Sect Leader brought him back from his travels . " Sun Wudao was the most senior individual here, yet he was not respected at all .

"Sect Leader? Haha . Don't jest . " The group of servants began to laugh . The one which seemed to be leading the group then stood up . "Since he was someone brought back by the Sect Leader, then he must definitely be an unparalleled genius . Why don't I test him out?"

His name was Zhao Chuan, and he was the head of the 100 odd servants on Yanli Mountain . He was 30 years old this year, in his prime . It was said that he was at the fourth tier of the Body Refining Realm, possessing the ability of one at the Strengthening Viscera tier .

"No!" Sun Wudao used his frail and skinny body to shelter Wu Yu before shouting, "He was poisoned in the mortal world and has been crippled . Please don't trouble him . "

Wu Yu had never imagined that at a time like this, Sun Wudao would protect him, not even hesitating to go against this group of servants . Wu Yu silently took note of this kindness in his heart . If not for Sun Wudao, he would likely have received a beating, especially since he was new .

"Oh, turns out it’s a piece of trash . Let's get the unpleasant things out first . Regardless of whether you're trash or not, you will have to do your work . If you miss even one thing, you will pay with your life . I, Zhao Chuan, am not someone who will sympathize with trash . Furthermore, Immortal Su is the one who handed me the responsibility of caring for this garden . She trusts me," Zhao Chuan said without any restraint .

"Boss Zhao, please be at ease . If he does anything less, I will make up for it myself," Sun Wudao replied .

"You will, you old bag of bones? Are you even able to?" Zhao Chuan gave a cold smile before turning and shouting to the group, "Brothers, you have to do your jobs well today . There are a few immortals who will be paying a visit to Immortal Su . You need to take good care of their Immortal Cranes . If anything happens, you will have to pay with your mongrel lives!"


"Yes, Sir! As Boss Zhao commands!" everyone answered .

As there was something important that had to be done, Zhao Chuan could not be bothered to continue troubling that pair any longer .

Not long after Zhao Chuan's command, the sounds of Immortal Cranes could he heard amidst the mist in the skies . Several huge Immortal Cranes descended into the garden and then several youths unmounted them .

All of them were not very old and looked about Wu Yu's age . They all wore exquisite robes that looked even more elegant than those worn by even the Emperor! The males had an impressive air of nobility and boundless vitality . The females were extremely graceful and possessed flawless snow-white skin . They were cheerful and lightheartedly talking . They inspired envy .



"If I had not been afflicted with the Spirit Severing Powder, I might have been able to become one of them . " Wu Yu stood by the side, respectfully lowering his head, not even daring to look at them directly . If he dared to do so, it was likely that this group of immortals would discipline him .

"Senior Apprentice Su, we are here to learn the Immortal Dao from you today . " Several of the immortals were smilingly walking towards Yanli's palace . The surrounding rabble was not deserving of their attention .

After the immortals had left, Zhao Chuan started shouting his commands loudly . "Take care of the beasts properly!"

Sun Wudao did not speak much and directly showed Wu Yu how to feed and take care of the Immortal Cranes . Wu Yu had gotten a grasp of the rules around the place and hence began to diligently learn and execute his tasks, all to ensure that Sun Wudao would not get into any further trouble .

In the blink of an eye, it was evening . Su Yanli had given the word that the gathering was over, so all of those fellow immortals had to leave the mountain . Wu Yu and Sun Wudao were like father and son, lying on top of a large, azure rock to rest . Wu Yu then asked Wudao about the details of the immortal sect to get a better understanding of the numerous matters regarding the sect, cultivation, and Sun Wudao himself . All of a sudden, they heard someone shouting in panic . The two of them immediately rushed over . There was an Immortal Crane vomiting and defecating all over, looking extremely berserk .

"That is a crane of one of the visitors!"

Upon seeing this sight, everyone began to panic . Even Zhao Chuan was trembling with fear . It was right at this time that the immortals were leaving Yanli's palace . One glance told them everything .

"My Ling Er!" A handsome youth ran out from within the crowd . He was garbed in a black and white robe with a jade ornament clasped onto his waist . On his back rested a jeweled longsword .

"Who was the one who took care of my Immortal Crane?" That handsome youth bellowed out loud, looking furious . His voice reverberated through everyone's ears . Sun Wudao was almost frightened to the point that he fell off the rock .



Bluntly speaking, no one was assigned any Immortal Cranes in a specific fashion, and everyone fed whichever crane was available . Furthermore, all of them looked the same, so who would know who fed which one? Furthermore, this had nothing to do with the caretaker . Perhaps something had happened to the food that was fed to the cranes .

"Wu Yu! It was you!"

At this point in time, a pale-faced Zhao Chuan shouted out .

"Who is Wu Yu!?" The handsome youth's tone turned icy .

Everyone's gazes shifted and landed squarely on Wu Yu .

Wu Yu was also dumbfounded . This was the first time he had come here, he had no idea what had even happened .

"You deserve death!"

Situ Jin, the owner of the crane, immediately brandished a whip . Without a word, he rushed in front of Wu Yu . The whip was raised up and, like a bolt of lightning, was lashed downwards . The whip had struck before anyone could hear anything . Wu Yu himself had yet to see anything happen, but the clothes on his chest suddenly split apart . A fearful, bloody gash appeared on him . He was struck flying backwards by the enormous force of the strike and smashed against the azure stone, practically half-dead .

"I fed the Immortal Crane," Sun Wudao said as he stood up, his eyes trembling slightly .



Just as Wu Yu's willpower was about to fade away and he was about to faint, he heard those words spoken by Sun Wudao . He had never imagined that Sun Wudao would help him, even in such a moment of crisis . Today's kindness was deeply etched in his heart . Whenever something had to do with him, he would not implicate others for his own actions . This Zhao Chuan had seen him as trash and had wanted to use Wu Yu to solve his problems . However, this was Zhao Chuan and Situ's problem . This had nothing to do with Sun Wudao .

"It has nothing to do with him!" Wu Yu struggled to stand . He did not know where this strength came from, but he pushed Sun Wudao away . These were the principles he lived by . He could not let someone else suffer for him .

Although he had entered an immortal sect, he was unable to accomplish his dream of becoming an immortal . Even when he was about to die, he was doomed to forever be a mediocre individual, doomed to serve others and doomed to live as someone of the lowest rank . Hence, even though he had gotten a second chance, Wu Yu did not hold much hopes of overthrowing his destiny .

"How audacious! What I hate most is seeing someone who clearly cannot take another strike still act like a courageous fool," said Situ as he gave a cold laugh . The whip arched backwards and lashed down onto Wu Yu's body like a poisonous snake, lacerating his flesh and leaving it in a mess . Wu Yu smothered a scream as he was forced onto his knees . His chest felt as though it was on fire, a burning, lancing pain .

"Forget it . This Wu Yu is a cripple . Even if he dies, it won't change anything . We, on the other hand, cannot die, we are still in the prime of our lives and can still labor on behalf of Immortal Su . " This was what most of the rabble were thinking to console themselves .

"This is truly scary . Good thing it wasn’t my Mei Er . Otherwise, I would die of sadness . It looks like Situ Jin's anger is warranted . These servants truly deserve to die . If we don't kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, they truly won't be obedient . " A female immortal spoke out .

Kacha!

Situ Jin was out to kill someone . The whip then struck down right onto Wu Yu's head, cracking it apart . Right at this moment, Wu Yu lost all sense of consciousness .
