I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World-Chapter 249 - 219: Bag and Beat

In the northern suburbs of Kongfang City, the cicadas of mid-summer were irritating, and two sparrows stood on the walls of a small courtyard in the outskirts, one chirping noisily, the other standing still.

Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan were lying in wait in the woods outside the courtyard, holding a movie viewing mirror, watching the scenes transmitted by the Cloud Lark Puppet.

Pavilions and towers, surrounded by flowing water, a young master in white lavish clothes was embracing a woman so enchanting it was bone-deep, sitting and joking in a pavilion at the center of the lake.

After a while, the wind blew the curtains, and the two rolled into a ball, a fox tail rose behind the woman, swaying leisurely.

Jiang Yuebai put down the mirror, "Quite the play, hiding extraordinary people in a golden house."

Xie Jingshan blushed slightly, coughed twice, and said, "This Fox Clan extraordinary is quite favored by Fang Mingyi, and the Fang Family does not allow the disciples to be with extraordinary women, so Fang Mingyi specifically bought this small courtyard, sneaks here every three to five days."

"Then report him," said Jiang Yuebai.

Xie Jingshan sighed, "Do you really think the Fang Family doesn’t know what he’s like? His indulgence in women is also the Fang family’s problem. Plus, he is one of the only three of his generation with a single spiritual root; as long as he doesn’t go too far, the Fang Family turns a blind eye."

Jiang Yuebai pondered, "I don’t think the Fang Family values him too highly, otherwise, why treat him like a breeding pig? If they really valued him, they should let him focus entirely on cultivation."

Hurting the enemy a thousand, damaging the friend by eight hundred.

Xie Jingshan pressed his chest, "That’s family responsibility, not as unsightly as you say!"

Who knows how long Fang Mingyi would be, Jiang Yuebai glanced at Xie Jingshan and asked, "Your mother returned. You’ve been quite happy these days, haven’t you?"

Xie Jingshan felt another knife to his heart, "Happy my ass, I haven’t even seen my mother a second time. She and my father ran off somewhere, all mysterious."

Jiang Yuebai stifled a laugh, "Your parents have great affection for each other, that’s a good thing. Once they’ve caught up, they’ll remember you, and who says a mother must focus all her heart on her child?"

Xie Jingshan was filled with grievances, like a little abandoned puppy.

"Anan has also been running out often these days, not sure where she’s gone. She doesn’t seem in a great state, I’m a bit worried about her," Jiang Yuebai changed the subject.

Xie Jingshan said, "She’s always been very independent, there shouldn’t be any issues. In a few days, when our Heavenly Interence Sect brothers and sisters arrive, I’ll host a gathering and also let her relax a bit."

"Mm, my master also agreed to meet in Kongfang City before the Wind and Cloud Meeting. Then I’ll ask him to think of some ways to help Anan."

The distant mountains were in sight, the clouds rolled and unrolled.

The two waited from morning until dusk, the sunset’s rosy light bathing the woods, only then did Fang Mingyi reluctantly part with his lady love and exit the courtyard with the Tiger Head Extraordinary.

The great array was activated, and the small courtyard disappeared, blending seamlessly with the verdant forest, leaving no trace.

The Tiger Head Extraordinary crouched on the ground, allowing Fang Mingyi to step onto his back, ride the White Lion Hound, and was led leisurely back to Kongfang City by the Tiger Head Extraordinary.

"That Fox Charm Lady is still interesting, while Lu Nanzhi is so cold, she’s off-putting."

Fang Mingyi snorted derisively, full of arrogance.

"However, it would be quite amusing to break Lu Nanzhi’s pride and have her grovel beneath my feet."

The Tiger Head Extraordinary remained silent, leading the White Lion Hound forward with large strides.

As they passed through the forest, the surrounding area was still, and the Tiger Head Extraordinary suddenly pulled the White Lion Hound to a halt, causing Fang Mingyi to jolt unexpectedly and fly into a rage.

"You bastard!"

A sharp aura was released from Fang Mingyi’s hand, striking the Tiger Head Extraordinary fiercely, causing lacerations.

The Tiger Head Extraordinary frowned deeply, speaking dully, "There are no cicada sounds around."

Fang Mingyi halted his raised hand, at last sensing the off atmosphere around him.

Suddenly, the wind picked up, leaves scattered, and a faceless figure appeared abruptly in the tree.

A long sword swept, air currents whirled, and ninety-nine fine swords spread out in an instant, silver light flowing with impressive momentum.

Fang Mingyi’s expression grew stern, "How dare you! Do you know who you’re striking at, the Fang Family’s direct..."

Before he finished speaking, Sword Qi surged skyward, shooting wildly.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The White Lion Hound sprinted off in fright, Fang Mingyi falling to the ground, the Tiger Head Extraordinary taking the lead, standing alone before Fang Mingyi.

The sword flow suddenly split before the Tiger Head Extraordinary, skirting around him and aiming straight for Fang Mingyi’s face.

Fang Mingyi was astonished and pale, the jade pendant at his waist radiated light, transforming into a blue Qi shield.

Bang, bang, bang!

Amid the intense clashing sounds, the Qi shield shook, and silver light erupted but couldn’t hurt Fang Mingyi at all.

Once all the Sword Aura was repelled, Fang Mingyi stood up from the ground, brushing off dirt and grass debris.

"Such insignificant tricks, do you not know who you’re trying to attack, it’s simply..."

The dense forest was dark, surroundings empty of any presence, and Fang Mingyi finally understood he was trapped in a kind of illusion array.

At that moment, threads emerged silently from the ground, bounding Fang Mingyi’s hands and feet without his awareness, deeply piercing his meridians, obstructing his Spiritual Energy.

Fang Mingyi’s eyes widened in horror, "Who! Show yo..."

Smack!

A slap landed on Fang Mingyi’s face, and it was his own hand that did it.

A metallic taste filled his mouth as blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. Fang Mingyi looked at his hand in terror, and soon the other hand rose again, striking his face once more.

Smack!

The crisp sound of the slap echoed on, particularly pleasing to the ears.

Fang Mingyi was furious, his blood and energy surged violently, triggering the mighty strength of the Giant Barbarian hidden in his bloodline, grappling with the Divine Sense Threads on his body.

The hand poised to slap his face trembled and stopped, but just three breaths later, the other hand struck Fang Mingyi heavily on the face.

Poof!

A broken tooth wrapped in blood sprayed out.

Fang Mingyi was shocked to discover that the power contained within these threads of Divine Sense was vast like the ocean, giving him a sense of helplessness akin to facing the pressure of a Golden Core Master.

"Who could it be? Who dares harm the direct descendant of the Fang Family? Aren’t you afraid of entire Fang Family retaliating?"

Fang Mingyi screamed hysterically, and a large black shadow descended from the sky, directly enveloping Fang Mingyi in a black sack shimmering with talismanic light, blocking his divine sense, rendering him unable to see or hear.

Bang!

A stick struck his leg, causing Fang Mingyi to scream in pain and collapse, followed by more sticks raining down on him like a tempest.

It wouldn’t kill him, but it really hurt!

"Ah, ah, ah! Stop hitting me, whatever you want, I’ll give it to you!!!"

In the woods, two masked individuals wielding specially crafted wooden sticks that amplified pain, mercilessly beat Fang Mingyi encased in the bespoke black sack.

"Beat you to death, you bastard. It’s one thing if you look down on me, but how dare you insult my grandfather and my friends? Today, I’ll let you taste the might of my punishing stick!"

Xie Jingshan struck blow after blow, watching Fang Mingyi roll on the ground, wailing for mercy, feeling extremely gratified.

"Spare me, stop hitting... really, stop hitting..."

"Lu Nanzhi is someone even a bastard like you dares to covet!"

"Stop hitting... I beg you... stop hitting..."

Jiang Yuebai leaned on a stick, holding her head with a frown.

"That’s enough, let’s go. My Silk Control Technique consumes a lot of divine sense, Fang Mingyi’s bloodline divine power is indeed something, I’m about to lose control of him."

Controlling people with the Silk Control Technique was a new whim Jiang Yuebai had recently started practicing, but it was only effective on those whose cultivation was not much higher than hers and were alone.

If there were two people present, the other could use any magic artifact to cut off the threads of divine sense.

Bang!

Xie Jingshan delivered a final hard blow, breaking Fang Mingyi’s leg, causing him to grunt in pain and faint completely.

Jiang Yuebai frowned and stepped back, telling Xie Jingshan to leave first. She looked around, and finally cast a "Yellow Sand Sinking Land" on Fang Mingyi.

The dark, quiet forest was left with Fang Mingyi, whose clothes had been shattered, naked and buried in the ground, with only a bloodied head swollen like a pig’s head exposed.

All traces around were also buried by the soil.

"Hahaha, what a relief! I’ve never felt so relieved before today, hahaha."

On the other side of the forest, the two running figures stopped, and Xie Jingshan lifted his mask, laughing heartily.

"I really wish I could’ve recorded the scene with a Memory Jade, handed it to every person in Kongfang City, and see how Fang Mingyi would ever act so rampant again."

Jiang Yuebai removed her mask, took a Soul Condensing Pill to recover her divine sense, her face slightly pale.

"You better keep a low profile, the Fang Family indeed isn’t easy to mess with. Let’s hope Fang Mingyi is too afraid of losing face to make a big deal out of it."

Xie Jingshan waved it off, "No worries, Fang Mingyi cares about his face the most, surely he wouldn’t dare investigate openly. Besides, today we’ve been in the Mountain and Sea Building all day, many people saw it, we never left Kongfang City."

Jiang Yuebai chuckled, "You’re something."

"By the way, do you think we can pull this off again in a few days? I feel like I didn’t do my best today."

Xie Jingshan rubbed his hands together, a mischievous grin on his face.

"Junior Sister Jiang, Junior Brother Xie!"

A familiar voice called out, and Jiang Yuebai turned to see Tang Weimian running towards them from a distance, accompanied by a good-looking young male cultivator, who cast a peculiar glance at Jiang Yuebai and the Faceless Mask in her hand.

"Senior Sister Tang? When did you arrive?" Jiang Yuebai went up to ask.

Tang Weimian smiled, "I just arrived today. Just now, my senior brother said there was a battle up ahead, and told me to set up an array and avoid it for the time being. So it was you, encountered any bandits? Are you injured?"

Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan exchanged glances, then both looked at the Early-Stage Golden Core male cultivator behind Tang Weimian.

Their gaze, which seemed as if they’d silence him, sent a chill down Li Shen Zhi’s spine. He never imagined that the female fiend he was looking for, rumored to murder, incinerate bodies, collect souls, and sow seeds all in one go, was Jiang Yuebai.

And just now, they even dared to throw the direct descendant of the Fang Family into a sack and beat him up...

Li Shen Zhi’s expression turned serious, "Nephew Jiang, I am Li Shen Zhi, True Monarch Fuyi’s eldest disciple. Rest assured, the debt my master owes you, I will repay triple in the shortest time possible!"
