I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2930: Chapter 1369: The Causes of Yesterday, the Consequences of Today (Part 2)

The Nascent Soul Cultivator tasked with guarding Fushang Star, Lao Xiaoyu, was in the midst of refining a batch of elixirs when, under Huo Gaoyuan’s wrath, he had a sudden scare and the furnace fire went out of control.

After the elixirs were ruined, Lao Xiaoyu’s mouth twitched slightly, feeling pained but not daring to say anything, he quickly cleaned up.

Preparing to teleport to where Huo Gaoyuan was descending, considering the latter was obviously in an angry mood, Lao Xiaoyu transmitted a message to his female disciple, Hua Yingxue, to avoid being reprimanded himself.

Hua Yingxue, after obtaining the Xuanxu Pill, initially planned not to leave seclusion until success, but upon hearing Huo Gaoyuan’s arrival, she had to set everything aside.

After all, her current status was entirely thanks to him.

Lao Xiaoyu instructed Hua Yingxue to first go find Huo Gaoyuan, thinking she should calm him down before he arrived.

A quarter-hour later, thinking the time was about right, Lao Xiaoyu teleported to the main hall responsible for governing the planet.

But to his surprise, Huo Gaoyuan stood in the hall with a sullen face, venting his anger at the Divinity Transformation cultivators from several departments, even the usually favored Hua Yingxue was not spared, and was scolded mercilessly.

In Lao Xiaoyu’s heart, a chill reverberated, realizing today’s matter was likely significant, but since he was already here, there was no running away, he could only accompany with a smile and ask, ”Why has Martial Brother suddenly come? Has there been a major event?”

”Hmph, you’ve done well!”

Huo Gaoyuan faced Lao Xiaoyu, also a Nascent Soul cultivator, with no pleasant expression. He had already investigated Chen Mobai’s situation and threw the file he held.

Lao Xiaoyu reached out to receive it, finding it was a dossier of temporary residency. Using Divine Sense, he saw Chen Mobai’s photograph.

With the memory of a Nascent Soul, he instantly recalled scenes from a century ago.

”This is the Divinity Transformation cultivator who sneaked in back then. Has he caused trouble on Wangxing that implicates you?” Lao Xiaoyu saw at the end of Chen Mobai’s dossier about his application to go to Wangxing and glanced at Huo Gaoyuan’s furious face, his heart tightened involuntarily.

”It’s a tremendous fortune, so much so that I was reprimanded by Senior Brother Cheng and might be held accountable!”

With a grim face, Huo Gaoyuan recounted the matter of Chen Mobai successfully cultivating the void and even stepping into the Innate Great Dao.

”Impossible! How could a mere rural cultivator from a remote star domain possess the Method for the Innate Great Dao! And he succeeded in cultivating the void without the Xuanxu Pill?” Lao Xiaoyu was shocked, his face filled with disbelief and confusion.

”This Mr. Chen is Junior Sister Song’s friend, who exchanged a Xuanxu Pill through her; didn’t you know?”

Huo Gaoyuan’s words stunned Lao Xiaoyu at first, then he remembered something, checking Chen Mobai’s dossier to confirm his place of origin column.

”He’s actually from the Xuanyang Star System.”

In murmurs, Lao Xiaoyu recalled the conversation with Chen Mobai a hundred years ago, where the latter indeed mentioned his origins, but he completely ignored it, assigning it to his disciples.

”Martial Brother, have you come today to migrate Mr. Chen’s residency to Wangxing?”

Lao Xiaoyu asked cautiously, as according to Xuanhu Dojo’s rules, post-cultivating void one could reside in Four Stars. Moreover, if the Innate Great Dao involving cultivation was achieved, it’s certain Xuanhu Daojun would personally meet him.

The once-dismissed minor character now became someone even Lao Xiaoyu had to look up to, which made him feel uncomfortable inside.

What bothered him more was Huo Gaoyuan’s attitude, indicating Chen Mobai must have spoken poorly about Fushang Star while at Wangxing.

”Was Mr. Chen’s temporary residency your idea?” Huo Gaoyuan’s eyes burnt as he stared at Lao Xiaoyu, knowing someone accountable needed to bear this responsibility for him to report back to Cheng Yunlan.

”How could it be, I remember very clearly, I was too lazy to handle such trivial matters then. I handed it over to Gao Tian and Yingxue, and since Yingxue is here, let her speak too.”

Upon seeing Huo Gaoyuan’s gaze, Lao Xiaoyu knew this old fellow intended to make him a scapegoat, promptly pushing his disciple into the situation.
