Starting Cultivation During a Trip

In ancient times, the Daoist Sect was filled with extraordinary individuals who, upon encountering demons, would open mountains and initiate acts of slaughter.

If this were ancient times, demons like Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu, if they paraded through the city like this and were discovered by Daoist experts, it would undoubtedly result in a bloodbath.

Just like the White Snake in the Legend of the White Snake, once targeted by Fa Hai, it leads to an unceasing death struggle.

On that night, within the Observatory of Profound Mystery, they invited the Seal Refining God, and used Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu as decoys to lure the tiger away from the mountain, drawing away most of the experts from the observatory.

Since then, these two vanished without a trace.

Zhang Fan never dreamed they would actually find their way to Yujing City, to Night is not bright.

”Damn it... how did they find their way here?” Zhang Fan stared wide-eyed, standing on the spot.

It’s important to know that, officially speaking, Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu were considered members of the Wuwei Sect, and also under the banner of Si Snake Bai Yujing.

”Your friends? The girl looks nice...”

At this moment, Jiang Hu leaned close to Zhang Fan’s ear and muttered softly, snapping Zhang Fan back to reality.

”Wait... why does she look so familiar?”

Soon, Jiang Hu’s gaze swept over Su Shiyu, his eyes tinged with suspicion.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead, instantly recalling.

That day, on the high-speed train to Gusu City, Zhang Fan had walked out of the restroom with this girl under everyone’s watchful eyes.

At the time, Sui Chunsheng and Zhan Xinyue were present, and their gaze towards Zhang Fan had turned strange.

”Look at you, even your Peach Blossom Debt found its way to the company, isn’t that her boyfriend?”

Jiang Hu lowered his voice, his gaze pausing briefly on Shi Shougong, furrowing his brows slightly.

He couldn’t shake the feeling that this man also looked somewhat familiar.

At this moment, if Sui Chunsheng and Zhan Xinyue were present, they would surely recognize this demon who almost slaughtered them in Gusu.

That night, Jiang Hu stayed indoors guarding Zhang Fan, and thus did not face the situation firsthand, or else he would surely recognize Shi Shougong.

”Can we come in?”

Su Shiyu asked softly, flashing a sweet smile.

”Come in.”

Wen He was just about to greet them when Zhang Fan hurriedly stepped forward.

”No... no need for that... I’ll take them downstairs for a bit.”

Zhang Fan forced a laugh and hurriedly escorted them out of the company.

Just as they stepped out, they bumped into Yu Fu.

”Old Yu, morning...” Zhang Fan instinctively greeted.

”Hm!?”

Yu Fu looked at the three emerging and was initially startled, then his gaze scanned over Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu.

”Zhang, who are these two?”

”Friends...” Zhang Fan said without turning his head, leading the two into the elevator.

Yu Fu stood in place, watching the closing elevator, his gaze narrowing to a line.

”Old Yu, what’s up? What are you looking at?” Wen He came up, following Yu Fu’s gaze, but saw nothing.

”The wind sure is strong today.” Yu Fu murmured quietly, slowly retracting his gaze.

”Wind? What wind?” Wen He looked around, reached out to feel, and seemed puzzled.

”A demon’s wind!”

Old Yu muttered casually and turned to enter the company.

...

Taoyuan Square, first floor.

Rui Xin Coffee.

”Are you two crazy? You’re practically begging to be identified as demons!” Zhang Fan glared wide-eyed at the two demons before him, each sipping coffee through a straw.

”Can’t really tell.” Su Shiyu whispered.

”Clearly you haven’t been a demon before.” Shi Shougong shot a sidelong glance, speaking indifferently.

Upon Primordial Spirit Possession, transforming into a demon, the primordial spirit hides within the Spirit Platform indistinguishable from humans.

Only through special methods, such as Daoist Magic to Open Celestial Eye, Demon-Revealing Mirror, and others, can one see the true body, or identify it during demonic frenzy manifestations; otherwise, most people simply cannot recognize it.

”Most people cannot tell, but what if you encounter the second class?” Zhang Fan anxiously questioned.

He was now a defenseless bird, with his identity already quite sensitive, and wanted nothing more than to lay low, quickly reaching the High Skill level, naturally not wanting these demons drawing attention.

”What are the chances of running into such people?” Shi Shougong cast a glance: ”You really think people with such skills are common?”

”Alright, enough nonsense, what do you want?” Zhang Fan gestured, unwilling to linger on this issue.

”To join you.” Su Shiyu sweetly smiled, revealing dimples.

”Join me? What does that even mean?” Zhang Fan’s eyes widened with surprise.

”That day... Aunt Yun told us to follow you from now on.” Su Shiyu helped Zhang Fan remember.

”Aunt Yun... she’s a Si Snake...” Zhang Fan squinted, mumbling to himself.

”So, we’re here to join you.”

”But...” Zhang Fan shook his head: ”She was just saying that; I really don’t have anything needed here, you can...”

”Aunt Yun always contacts me on a single line, she’s no longer in Gusu City, and even if we wanted to find her, it would only be through you.” Su Shiyu said softly.

”I can’t find her either.” Zhang Fan said directly.

He never wanted to find her again in this lifetime; being a Si Snake Bai Yujing, part of the Thirteen Zodiacs of Wuwei Sect, is nothing but trouble, a hassle.

”Don’t worry, since she assigned us to you, she will surely come to find you.” Su Shiyu reassured Zhang Fan.

”Like hell, I can be at ease.” Zhang Fan cursed internally.

”By the way, before Aunt Yun left, she gave the Gusu Clan’s house to you.”

With that, Su Shiyu took a file folder from her backpack and handed it over.
