Mortal Cultivation: Portable Space

Chapter 425 Xingji Palace

When the two middle-aged men heard this voice, they were shocked and their faces instantly turned pale. They quickly looked down and saw a young man looking at them with a smile in the woods below.

When the two of them saw this young man, they felt like mortals had seen a ghost, and they were even more shocked. They didn't expect this man to appear again.

And looking at his appearance, it seemed that the injuries on his body had recovered as before. Thinking of this person's terrifying cultivation level, they suddenly felt frightened in their hearts. You must know that this person's storage bag was still in their hands.

Without thinking too much, I just heard the middle-aged man shout in panic:

"Junior brother, run quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and ran away towards the way he came.

When the man named Bai heard this, he turned around and ran away in panic.

"Hey, can you escape? You'd better return the storage bag to me."

Wu Fan was in a great mood and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Then his figure flashed and turned into a rainbow and chased the two of them.

With the opponent's speed, there was no way he could be faster than Wu Fan. In just a few blinks, a figure appeared not far in front of the two of them, smiling at them with his hands behind his back.

When the two of them saw this, their faces suddenly became paler, and they felt extremely panicked. As if they were looking at an evil god, they were forced to stop.

The man surnamed Bai couldn't help turning his head to look at the middle-aged man, and asked awkwardly:

"Teacher, senior brother, me, what should we do?"

The middle-aged man was not much better. He was also very nervous because the other party's cultivation level was so high that the two of them had no power to resist at all, so they didn't reply to the man surnamed Bai and just bowed and clasped their fists respectfully. said:

"Greetings, senior!"

When the man surnamed Bai saw this, he also bowed honestly.

"You are quite courageous, you even dare to snatch my storage bag!"

Wu Fan looked at the two of them and sneered, and said in a cold voice.

"Senior, have mercy on me. I know I was wrong."

When the two heard this, they immediately burst into tears and hurriedly bowed and begged for mercy again.

"Hmph, hand over my storage bag!"

Wu Fan snorted coldly and moved closer to the two of them.

"Yes, yes, junior, please return the storage bag to senior."

The middle-aged man did not dare to neglect, and quickly took out a storage bag from the depth of the sleeve of his clothes, flew to Wu Fan respectfully and handed it over.

Seeing that the other party had hidden the storage bag quite concealed, Wu Fan couldn't help but sneered, reached out to take the storage bag, and after a brief inspection, he saw that nothing was missing inside, and his expression softened.

But this is not surprising. With the small cultivation level of the other two, they will not be able to open the storage bag in a short time.

"If I ask you next, you must answer truthfully, otherwise, you will know the consequences."

Wu Fan did not kill the two people immediately, nor did he prepare to search for their souls first, because he felt that it was better to be more cautious without understanding the situation. Who knew whether these two people had any strong backers.

It would be bad if he accidentally got himself into big trouble. After all, he was not familiar with this place. He didn't want to live a life of being hunted. Besides, with the cultivation of these two people, I'm afraid it would be too. Those who cannot bear the search for souls.

"Senior, please ask, we must tell you everything you know!"

How could the two of them dare to think of disobeying their orders? They would die anyway, so they might as well make this senior happy, so that they might still have a chance to survive.

"What is your master's cultivation level?"

Wu Fan didn't hesitate and directly asked him what he was most concerned about.

"Reporting to senior, my master is a monk in the early stage of foundation building!"

The young man replied first, looking very attentive.

Wu Fan felt relieved when he heard this, and a smile appeared on his face, and then asked again:

"Are you three, master and disciple, disciples of the sect or casual cultivators?"

The two were startled when they heard this. They didn't understand why the senior asked such a question. There were no disciples of the sect in this sea area. This was something that everyone knew, but the two did not dare to question it. Can answer honestly.

This time it was the middle-aged man who spoke first:

"Senior, we can be said to be casual cultivators, or we can be said to be people from the "Xingji Palace"!"

Wu Fan was also startled when he heard this, and the other party's answer made him a little confused.

"Xingji Palace" sounded like a large sect, but these two people replied that they were both casual cultivators and members of the sect, which made him feel a little weird.

Loose cultivators are casual cultivators, and people from the sect are members of the sect. How can anyone introduce their identity like them?

Wu Fan had never heard of such a strange thing in his whole life, but these two people obviously did not dare to lie, so they could only continue to ask:

"What do you mean by what you said? Are you two casual cultivators or members of the sect?"

The two middle-aged men were also confused by Wu Fan's question.

Then the two of them suddenly remembered that this person should not be from this sea area. They could tell when they first discovered this person some time ago, so it was normal not to understand, so the middle-aged man replied again:

"Seniors may not know something. This "Xingsha Islands" are all under the control of "Xingji Palace". If we casual cultivators want to survive here, we can only obey its orders and report to "Xingji Palace" every year. "Turn in taxes, that's why I said before that we are both casual cultivators and people from the "Xingji Palace", but we are not the disciples of the "Xingji Palace"."

At this time, the young man also said:

"Senior, what my senior brother said is right. The biggest wish of us casual cultivators is to become disciples of Xingji Palace, but Xingji Palace is too harsh in accepting disciples. We have no connections and no extraordinary cultivation qualifications, so we can only rely on paying taxes to cultivate here."

The middle-aged man looked at his junior brother, and then hurriedly added:

"We casual cultivators are very miserable. Most of the cultivation resources we accumulate in normal times have to be handed over to "Xingsha Palace". Sometimes it is not even enough. Just like this year, the production of "Red Leaf Tea" on which we rely for survival has dropped sharply. Let alone leaving some to exchange for spirit stones to buy elixirs for cultivation, it is not enough even if all the taxes are paid."

Wu Fan also understood the general idea after hearing this. From what the two said, they were not even outer disciples of "Xingji Palace". At most, they were casual cultivators who depended on others.

But he didn't understand one thing. Before, the two of them talked about "Xingji Palace" for a while, and then said that they had to pay taxes to "Xingsha Palace". Aren't these two forces one and the same?

Wu Fan continued to ask with doubt:

"You just said that this "Xingsha Islands" is ruled by the "Xingji Palace", but why do we have to pay taxes to the "Xingsha Hall"? "

After hearing this, the two knew that the senior must have misunderstood, and the young man hurriedly said:

"It is like this, senior, the entire "Xingsha Islands" is indeed ruled by the "Xingji Palace", but the area of ​​the entire "Xingsha Islands" is too large, so the "Xingji Palace" has established many "Xingsha Halls" on large islands in various regions to facilitate the management of the entire "Xingsha Islands", and we cultivators are all under the management of the nearest "Xingsha Hall."
