The environment was beautiful, the forest was dense, and the forest path was overgrown with flowers and plants.
A hundred disciples of the One Dao Alliance, all dressed in Daoist robes, strolled along the small road. Each of them had a different expression on their faces.
Some were excited, some were worried, and some were nervous.
"Elder Li, will our trip to Mud Mountain be safe?”
A young Taoist priest walking in front of the group asked Elder Li Baimu, who was leading the group, anxiously.
The latter smiled and looked ahead. Without turning his head, he said,"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, we're not cannon fodder sent out by the higher-ups."
" Just listen to the plan to attack Mud Mountain. The higher-ups won't expect us to do anything big. We just need to show the world what we're doing."
Another inner court disciple whose position was second only to Elder Li Baimu also said with a smile,"You guys are stupid. We came here to enjoy ourselves! Wasn't it boring to stay in the Qi Refining Dao Alliance and cultivate every day?”
"Shangqian City has a lot of good things. You guys are still too young. You have to know that debauchery is what humans love the most!”
" Alright, you brat, don't lead them astray." Li Baimu patted the inner disciple. The latter nodded awkwardly, knowing that he had gone overboard.
They liked to live in a drunken stupor and steal offerings from mortals, but that didn't mean that others liked them. If there were Taoist priests who claimed to be righteous among these hundred people, it would be troublesome.
As Li Baimu's direct descendant, his words sometimes represented Li Baimu's meaning. Therefore, there were some words that could not be said.
After walking for a while, Shangqian City was already close at hand.
Li Baimu turned his head and looked at his own faction. Then, he said to the other fledgling Daoists who had joined the team at the back,"You guys set up camp outside Shangqian City. The rest of you follow me into the city."
"Yes, sir! Hehe, let's go into the city to enjoy ourselves ~"
"It's just that the Happy Red Courtyard in Shangqian City is too shabby and far inferior to the Heavenly Immortal Courtyard in the capital. Forget it, I'll just make do with it and play around."
"It's not easy for me to come out, and I can eat and drink again.”
"Cultivating every day and preventing others from surpassing me, the pressure is really f * cking great. It's time to vent!”
Compared to the excitement of Li Baimu's group, those who were ordered to guard outside the city looked depressed.
Camping outside the city was dangerous at night, and it was impossible to sleep soundly.
If another powerful demon came, Shangqian City's city gate wouldn't even open. They would only watch as they were eaten by the demon. That would be very fatal!
However, they did not dare to complain. Some of them had just entered the sect for two years and were unwilling to join Li Baimu's faction. There were also some who were righteous by nature and were unwilling to join Li Baimu and the others.
The overall strength of these people was far inferior to Li Baimu's faction, and their status was even lower. Naturally, they did not dare to disobey orders.
Often, these people died the fastest…
Humans wouldn't care what demons thought. Similarly, demons wouldn't care who humans were. They wouldn't care if you were righteous or not. It was the same anyway. They just ate or killed you.
As the Yiqi Dao Alliance team entered the city, the sky was already dark, and the beautiful morning glow of dusk gradually faded.
Chu Ge did not go to see the City Lord, and the two guards did not dare to say much. After arranging a free and good place for Chu Ge to live, they returned to their posts.
Although the real Yiqi Dao Alliance's reinforcements came later, the two guards tacitly did not talk about Chu Ge.
In their opinion…
It was obvious that they were here for a secret mission, so it was normal that they were not reinforcements.
Moreover, how could an expert who could scare off a big demon with his gaze be a simple person? Even if they had ten thousand guts, they would not dare to talk about Chu Ge behind his back.
After nightfall, Li Baimu and his group, who had finished their meal in the City Lord's Mansion, rushed into the brightly lit ancient street, except for those who were cultivating in their residences.
Just as Chu Ge was half-wearing a mask and only revealing his mouth, sitting alone at a table and eating, a dozen Taoist priests walked in with a young girl in their arms.
He glanced at the dozen people casually, then lowered his head and continued to fight with the food.
This Purple Bamboo Forest Restaurant was one of the best restaurants in Shangqian City in terms of decoration and food. Naturally, the Taoist priests who came to Shangqian City would dine here.
He was just eating, yet he was still hugging a beauty in his arms. His frivolous appearance was truly a disgrace to the reputation of the Qi Refining Dao Alliance.
However, others could not say anything. Daoists in the fox demon world had always been a high-risk profession, and it was a high-risk position that required cultivation talent. They were under so much pressure every day, and they also had the responsibility of protecting humans. It was not a big deal to vent a little.
As long as they didn't kill or pillage, the upper echelons of the Qi Refining Dao Alliance wouldn't care.
Because in this era where there was a lack of cultivation techniques and one's mind could not keep up with one's cultivation, if the suppressed desires of the low-level Taoist priests were not vented, they would go crazy and panic all day long. In serious cases, they would develop inner demons and do irreparable damage.
Saints who had no desires and desires only existed in illusions.
However, it did not take long for Chu Ge to be unable to eat as if no one was around.
The Taoist priests, who had already driven away most of the customers in the private room on the second floor, saw that there were still not enough seats. They could not help but turn their eyes to Chu Ge, who was sitting alone at a table.
The guards would mistake Chu Ge's identity, but they would not.
Zhang Bai did not care about the blue and white robe that was very similar to the Taoist robe. Instead, it was the spiritual pressure of the Qi Control Realm that Chu Ge revealed that made him treat him equally.
Zhang Bai was one of the inner sect disciples from the beginning. He had reached the Qi Control Realm at the age of 30, and was considered to be a high-grade talent in the Qi Alliance.
"Fellow Daoist, the Monster-vanquishing Team of the One Breath Dao Alliance has come here for a meal, but we don't have enough seats.”
“.....”
Chu Ge raised his head and glanced at him. He said indifferently,""I still have three empty seats here. There are only two of you and no seats. Just sit at the table."
"This... I'm afraid not. Why don't you go downstairs to eat? In that case, wouldn't it be great to let my team members have a meal in peace?”
"Oh, I don't have the hobby of helping others. Why don't you guys wait for me to finish eating?"
“... Fellow Daoist, are you going to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit?”Zhang Bai said with a smile.
Chu Ge picked up the Drunken Holy Gourd and took a sip of the strong wine. He smiled and said,""If you can't take it, how can you take it the hard way?”
Zhang Bai was so angry that he laughed. This was the first time he had met a cultivator who dared to go against the Qi Alliance.
"Hahaha, you shameless thing! A mere rogue cultivator dares to go against my Qi Refining Dao Alliance!”
"Do you think you're invincible just because you've reached the Qi Control Realm? Today, I will cripple your cultivation! It can also be considered a wake-up call for you. In the future, when you see people from the sect, remember to obediently avoid them!”
