Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 401-Chapter 500)

Chu Tian was startled. He gritted his teeth and unleashed his true qi of the five elements desperately in an attempt to stabilise himself. However, he was like a fallen leaf in a whirlpool, sucked towards the centre helplessly. Suddenly, he roared out and swung the Palm of the Five Elements violently towards Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan smiled. The spin of the vortex reversed and Chu Tian flew out again, watching helplessly as Li Qingshan grew further and further away. The vortex reversed again, and he was sucked back. This repeated for who knew how many times. All Chu Tian felt was the world spin around him as he became light-headed. He could not even put up a fight.

Foundation Establishment cultivators had always possessed an absolute advantage in power over Qi Practitioners. Chu Tian might have been able to protect himself before regular Foundation Establishment cultivators with his true qi of the five elements, but how could Li Qingshan be compared to a regular Foundation Establishment cultivator?

Li Qingshan simply sat down on the cloud and wielded the spiritual qi of the world, sending Chu Tian wherever he wished. He was completely toying with him.

Wei Yangsheng let out a soft sigh. He wanted to speak up, but he stopped himself. Teaching Chu Tian a lesson would be good too. If a Qi Practitioner had leapt out in front of him and wanted to make trouble, being toyed with would be a gentler fate to suffer.

Chu Tian roared furiously, “Li Qingshan, I’ll fuck-”



“You’ll what?”

With a flash, Li Qingshan arrived in front of Chu Tian and swung down with his hand. Chu Tian’s protective true qi shattered and collapsed.

Bang!

Like a balloon, Chu Tian flew into the remote forest. There was a boom, and the trees trembled. Dust rose up everywhere.

Li Qingshan wanted to pursue, but Wei Yangsheng stopped him and coaxed him. “Junior brother, please just drop the matter. Do it for me. He’s learnt his lesson.”

Chu Tian leapt up from the crater he had created. He stared at Li Qingshan, completely overcome by fury. “Li Qingshan, you’ve gone too far!”

Li Qingshan said in surprise, “Weren’t you challenging me? What’s this got to do with me? Don’t tell me you’ve come specially to cheer me up? Thank you then, I am in a much better mood now.”

“Chu Tian, why don’t you apologise?” Wei Yangsheng grabbed Chu Tian and shot him a glance.

“You- you- you-” Chu Tian looked at Wei Yangsheng before looking at Li Qingshan. He was clearly hiding a powerful trump card, but he was unable to use it. He felt so frustrated and furious that he actually burst out into tears with a wah.

Li Qingshan was the one who became very embarrassed now. He clasped his hands towards Wei Yangsheng. “Senior brother, I’ll be taking my leave first.”

Wei Yangsheng was exasperated by Chu Tian. He said earnestly, “Little Tian, we’re all from the academy. It’s not like he’s killed your parents or stolen your wife, so why must you invite humiliation like this? Even if you want to redeem yourself, you’ll have to establish a foundation first!”

“Senior brother… if you hadn’t… if you hadn’t…” Chu Tian choked out between his sobs.

“If I hadn’t what?”

“Wah!”

……

The Hawkwolf Guard of Clear River city was bustling with activity. Hua Chengzan descended from above and stepped in.

“Commander Hua, you’ve come.” The many people all greeted him.

“Yeah, I’ve come.” Hua Chengzan nodded towards them one by one. He made his way up the stairs quickly and entered through the door.

Wang Pushi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and said without even looking back, “Where is he? Didn’t I tell you to bring him back to receive orders?”

Hua Chengzan said, “He said he wanted to set up a dwelling, so I let him go for now.”

“You’re far too lenient with him. He’s reached Foundation Establishment, and he’s a Hawkwolf guard. He’s a disciple of the academy on top of all of that. He has his responsibilities. What kind of impression is he giving off if he enters seclusion whenever he wants to and sets up a dwelling whenever he wants to? What would everyone else say?” Wang Pushi turned around and said sternly. Compared to three years ago, his appearance had not changed much. He just seemed slightly more weathered.

“But he just killed a Daemon General.”

Wang Pushi was taken aback. “He still can’t be permitted to do whatever he likes.” However, his tone had softened. Even among the school leaders of the academy, not everyone was capable of killing a Daemon General. Although Li Qingshan did whatever he liked, without any control at all, no one could nitpick what he did. As a matter of fact, they would even praise him.

“Fu Qingjin just came. He asked me where I was yesterday. He seems to be investigating something.” Hua Chengzan mulled over the conversation he just had with Fu Qingjin, wanting to deduce something from it. As the leading figure of the Daemon Suppression alliance in the Clear River prefecture, there would be a profound reason regardless of what he did.

“What’s he investigating?” Wang Pushi frowned.



“I’m not sure. From his tone, it sounds like someone did something huge yesterday. He also mentioned that he wanted to do something big soon, and he wanted our cooperation. He said it would greatly benefit us too.” Hua Chengzan crossed his arms and sank into his thoughts, rubbing his chin with one hand as he tried to guess what Fu Qingjin was thinking.

In the Chain mountains, a white cloud flew around freely between the mountains. Li Qingshan and Xiao An were looking for a suitable place to set up their dwelling. In just a while, they had already toured through the several dozen mountains of various sizes there.

Finally, Li Qingshan chose a mountain. It was not particularly lofty or precipitous, but it did possess some delicate beauty. “Let’s get to work!”

“Yep.” Xiao An nodded.

They circled around the mountain again and found a natural cave. Li Qingshan condensed the pulses of water in his right hand into a huge drill, and the rock fell to the ground as dust. He expanded the cave, turning it into the entrance of their dwelling.

Li Qingshan ventured deeper. Before long, he had dug out a huge hole in the middle of the mountain. He had basically created the most simple dwelling possible.

In the end, he took out the formation discs and banners and set up the Eight Gates Formation of Golden Locks. He saw eight words and the eight gates flash in order around the mountain, “Resting, Life, Pain, Limit, View, Death, Wonder, Beginning.” The eight trigrams circulated around the mountain peak before suddenly stabilising and drooping down. It vanished at the same time, as if it had merged with the mountain. The spiritual qi of the mountain was firmly locked in.

TL: To be added

Li Qingshan nodded in satisfaction. From that moment onwards, no one could enter the mountain easily unless they had his permission. If he cultivated here, he did not have to worry about his daemon qi leaking out and drawing attention.

Arriving in front of the dwelling, Li Qingshan flattened the rock there with a wave of his hand. He said to Xiao An, “My handwriting is no good, so you do it instead!”

Xiao An bit her lip. The bone sword protruded from her hand. With a few flicks, rock fragments fell down with her beautiful penmanship. Three large, sunken words appeared, “Qing Xiao’s Home.” Qingshan and Xiao An’s home.

“Qing Xiao’s Home dwelling. What a strange name. But that doesn’t matter. From today onwards, this is our home.” Li Qingshan inspected it with crossed arms, radiating with vigour. Xiao An smiled.

The bright moon had just risen, and the moonlight scattered across the autumn mountains. It illuminated a small and a large figure, freezing time.

The dwelling that Li Qingshan had set up was neither elegant nor grand. It could only be described with a single word—big.
