Chapter 151: Ancient Great Witch, Calamity of the Heavenly Immortal Manor

[Tu Ling'er: Ninth Layer of the Void Fusion Realm, Reincarnation of an ancient Great Witch. During the prehistoric era, the Witch Clan and the Yao Race fought for hegemony over the Heavenly Dao, leading to the fall of both and the loss of their grand racial Luck. The Witch Clan was annihilated, and a few Great Witches hid within the six paths of reincarnation. After undergoing ten thousand Reincarnations, Tu Ling'er finally washed away the Karma of the Witch Clan, but her Soul remained that of a Great Witch. Upon achieving the Immortal Emperor realm, she could transform into a Great Witch with heaven-defying powers. Tu Ling'er is an executive of the Heavenly Immortal Manor, sent by her Master to find Fang Liang]

Ancient Great Witch?

She can only transform into a Great Witch upon reaching the Immortal Emperor realm?

Just how strong would that be?

Han Jue was secretly shocked. This woman was not simple.

However, he noticed that Tu Ling'er had come under the orders of the Heavenly Immortal Manor, so she probably harbored ill intentions.

Out of caution, he conducted a Simulation Trial with Tu Ling'er.

A second later, he chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Tu Ling'er only possessed the background of a Great Witch; she was not a true Great Witch. Her strength could only match some Body Integration Realm Cultivators, falling far short of his.

Han Jue detected that Tu Ling'er had already arrived at the foot of the Mountain of Bitter Cultivation to Immortality.

Fang Liang sensed her aura and personally went down the mountain to meet her.

"Senior, why are you here?" Fang Liang asked, cupping his fists with a somewhat awkward expression.

He had almost forgotten that he was also a Disciple of the Heavenly Immortal Manor.

Tu Ling'er was dressed in a yellow shirt and cyan robe, her hair coiled beneath a jade hairpin. Her features were comely; although not peerlessly beautiful, matched with her temperament, she was still breathtaking.

Tu Ling'er looked toward the Mountain of Bitter Cultivation to Immortality and asked, "Fang Liang, what is the origin of this mountain? Why is the Spiritual Qi so dense?"

This already rivals the cultivation Holy Land of the Heavenly Immortal Manor!

Such a tiny place like Great Yan actually hides a treasured land!

Fang Liang said awkwardly, "This is my first Sect. Why have you come to find me? Didn't I already tell the Heavenly Immortal Manor that I won't return in the future unless the Heavenly Immortal Manor Faces a calamity?"

The Heavenly Immortal Manor was not a pure Sect. Aside from Disciples personally nurtured by them, they also taught Disciples from other Sects to form wide-ranging favorable affinities.

"With your Aptitude, comparable to Immortal God Ji, do you think the Heavenly Immortal Manor would be willing to give you up? Coming to find you this time is because the Heavenly Immortal Manor has encountered a major calamity. Dozens of True Demons attacked the Heavenly Immortal Manor, plunging it into a bitter battle. My Master sent me to find you, hoping to invite the Earthly Immortal God you mentioned in your letter to take action. Is he right here on the mountain?" Tu Ling'er asked casually.

Her gaze stared fixedly at the fusang tree atop the mountain.

That tree is not simple. What is its origin?

Fang Liang shook his head and said, "The Earthly Immortal God I met was merely a passing encounter and has long since departed. There are no mighty figures within the Yuqing Sacred Sect capable of helping the Heavenly Immortal Manor."

Tu Ling'er asked with a smile, "Does your Yuqing Sacred Sect still lack Elders? I want to Cultivate on this mountain. Help me ask about it."

"Ah?"

"What is it?"

"Doesn't the Heavenly Immortal Manor have a calamity? Senior, aren't you anxious?"

"Precisely because there is a calamity, I cannot return."

"…"

"Didn't you also say that if the Heavenly Immortal Manor has a calamity, you will return? Then are you going back?"

"…"

Fang Liang was left speechless.

He thought for a moment and said, "Wait here, I will go ask my Grandmaster."

Tu Ling'er nodded and then sat cross-legged in front of the mountain gate's stone stele.

Fang Liang quickly went up the mountain to visit Han Jue.

Han Jue had him enter the manor to chat.

Fang Liang recounted Tu Ling'er's purpose for coming and then said, "Grandmaster, Tu Ling'er's Aptitude can rank in the top ten within the Heavenly Immortal Manor. However, this woman is notoriously cunning. Now, using a mission as an excuse to stay far away from the Heavenly Immortal Manor, it shows she is no good person either."

Obviously, he did not like Tu Ling'er, but due to seniority within the Heavenly Immortal Manor, he had to give her some Face.

Han Jue asked, "Does she carry a blood feud?"

Fang Liang thought about it and said, "She doesn't. She grew up in the Heavenly Immortal Manor since she was young, but she has cultivated bitterly year-round and rarely socializes with others."

"Reject her."

"Alright!"

Fang Liang departed happily.

Although Tu Ling'er's Soul background was awesome, she had already grown up and it was inconvenient to brainwash her. Moreover, she was a Disciple of the Heavenly Immortal Manor, and Han Jue did not want to invite trouble.

Immediately afterward, Han Jue began checking his mail.

So many years had passed, yet the True Demons had not caused too much of a commotion. Without Lou Yuxue's leadership, they couldn't even capture the Heavenly Immortal Manor, which actually surprised Han Jue.

The Heavenly Immortal Manor has some substance!

[Your friend Immortal God Ji encountered an attack by True Demons] x145

[Your friend Immortal God Ji was heavily injured and his life hung by a thread]

[Your friend Ji Lengchan encountered an attack by True Demons] x4

[Your friend Zhou Fan obtained an Opportunity, and his Physical Body transformed]

[Your friend Huang Jihao encountered an attack by True Demons and was heavily injured]

[Your Dao Companion Xuan Qingjun comprehended the true meaning of the Dao, and her Dao Cultivation surged greatly]

[Your friend Mo Fuchou was bewitched by the Demon Race and developed a Heart Demon]

[Your friend Immortal God Ji had an Epiphany regarding a sage technique, and his Primordial Spirit transformed]

…

Han Jue raised an eyebrow.

Even Immortal God Ji was heavily injured. It seemed the Heavenly Immortal Manor was indeed in imminent danger.

Han Jue hesitated whether to go help or not.

Immediately afterward, he shook his head.

He had already resolved the True Demon commander. If the Heavenly Immortal Manor couldn't even handle the other True Demons, how would they Face the Demon Race in the future?

Han Jue certainly didn't want the Yuqing Sacred Sect's home to be raided while he was away.

In addition, Immortal God Ji had an Epiphany regarding a sage technique, which was clearly the template of a protagonist. Perhaps this battle would become the one where Immortal God Ji soared straight to the skies.

Just as Han Jue was pondering,

Fang Liang returned once more.

"Grandmaster, she refuses to leave. She says she is willing to take you as her Master," Fang Liang said with a wry smile.

He was no match for Tu Ling'er, so he couldn't forcibly expel her.

Han Jue said expressionlessly, "If she wants to take me as her Master, that's fine too. Kowtow for ten years."

Hearing this, Fang Liang hesitated slightly, but still went down the mountain to pass on the message.

Enlightenment Sword asked curiously, "Are you really going to take her in?"

Han Jue smiled and said, "Let's first see if she is willing to lower her head."

…

At the foot of the mountain, after hearing Fang Liang's words, Tu Ling'er directly knelt before the stone stele and began kowtowing.

Fang Liang frowned and asked, "Why must you do this? Even if you want to avoid the calamity of the Heavenly Immortal Manor, you don't necessarily have to go this far."

While kowtowing, Tu Ling'er smiled and said, "To be able to make you abandon the generous treatment of the Heavenly Immortal Manor, and to nurture such a treasured mountain, the Master of this mountain must undoubtedly be the Earthly Immortal God mentioned in your letter."

Fang Liang fell silent.

There was one more matter Tu Ling'er hadn't mentioned.

In truth, it wasn't the Heavenly Immortal Manor demanding that Fang Liang return. What kind of role could Fang Liang play against the current calamity of the Heavenly Immortal Manor?

It was she who proactively brought up finding Fang Liang, under the nice-sounding pretext of gathering the external forces of the Heavenly Immortal Manor.

Over a decade ago, whenever Tu Ling'er cultivated, she easily fell into dreams.

In her dreams, she often saw a mountain, and upon the mountain was a mysterious figure.

At first, the dreamscape was blurry, but later it grew increasingly clear, until she dreamed of Fang Liang—whom she had previously interacted with—kneeling before that mysterious figure. Then she understood that the other party must be related to Fang Liang.

Tu Ling'er deeply believed in her dreams.

Ever since she was young, she had even comprehended Divine Abilities within her dreams.

This was also the biggest reason why she became a Prodigy of the Heavenly Immortal Manor.

Upon hearing Han Jue tell her to kowtow for ten years, her first reaction was not anger, but a sigh of relief in her heart.

For the other party to speak with such a grand tone, he was definitely a mighty figure!

Indeed!

The dream had guided her toward an Opportunity once more!

Seeing that she was insistent, Fang Liang stopped trying to persuade her. He turned and left, preparing to return to his manor to continue cultivating.
