Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 501-Chapter 600)

“Commander, you’ve returned.”


Li Qingshan arrived in the office of the Hawkwolf Guard in Clear River city. All the Hawkwolf guards he came across along the way bowed towards him. Their gazes were rather surprised at first before becoming replaced by shock.

Only after Li Qingshan had walked past did they discuss quietly, “I haven’t mistaken it, have I? That aura’s… mid Foundation Establishment!?”

“That’s right, it can’t be wrong. I think so too!”

“Just how long has it been since he established a foundation!?”

“Looks like commander is also the type to hide his talent!”

If there were still people who were dissatisfied with his irresponsibility and tardiness, then this cultivation speed was enough for everyone to shut up before becoming completely convinced.

What were “cultivators”? The emphasis was placed on the word “cultivation”. As long as they could advance at an ungodly rate, then nothing else mattered anymore.

Li Qingshan arrived upstairs and saw Hua Chenglu standing beside the floor-to-ceiling windows in low spirits. He could not help himself as his eyes lit up. Hua Chenglu had truly inherited the fantastic bloodline of the Hua family. As she stood there, she looked quite like a saddened beauty. He approached her and smiled. “Girl, what are you thinking about? Where’s your elder brother?”

“Commander… you’ve already reached mid Foundation Establishment!” Hua Chengzan turned around and was also surprised.



“You sure have ended up pretty, girlie!”

“What girlie? And pretty, really?” Hua Chenglu curled her lip, objecting to how Li Qingshan described her. Li Qingshan might have been a Foundation Establishment cultivator already, but he did not behave arrogantly at all. She was happy to accept him as a good friend too.

“Don’t forget, I come from the country. It’s a pity I already have your elder sister Han. Otherwise, I’d buy some betrothal gifts and go to the Hua family to ask for your hand in marriage.”

Hua Chenglu’s face reddened. “Commander, you shouldn’t talk nonsense. Did you know that elder sister Han has already reached Foundation Establishment?”

“What! Where is she right now?”

Li Qingshan beamed with joy even though he had never worried for Han Qiongzhi’s safety. Foundation Establishment was as the cultivation realm suggested. It was only building a foundation for future cultivation, so normally, it should not have been too dangerous, not to mention she had someone as powerful as Han Anguo watching over her. However, hearing her succeed still brought him relief. One less thing weighed on his mind now.

“She’s still in the Ruyi commander. She’s remaining there to serve as a white wolf under commander Gu. Her post is even higher than yours now.”

“That’s good!” Li Qingshan nodded before suddenly turning around and leaving.

“Where are you going, commander?”

“To the Ruyi commandery, of course,” Li Qingshan said like it was common sense. In the past, she was in secluded cultivation, and he was unable to leave the Clear River prefecture. Now that nothing was stopping him, he obviously had to go and reunite with her.

“Hold on. Qingshan, you’ve emerged! Sure enough, you’ve made quite the progress yet again!”

Hua Chengzan also sensed Li Qingshan’s aura. He came out to take a look and could not help but experience a certain helplessness of, “I’ll just become depressed if I compare myself with you”. From the moment he had met Li Qingshan, he had never stopped advancing forward. If this continued, Golden Core would be nothing difficult at all for him.

Li Qingshan smiled. “I just got lucky, that’s all. I can see you’re close too.”

Hua Chengzan had always been a genius, and he had succeeded with Foundation Establishment a few years before Li Qingshan. In the past, he had been stuck as a Qi Practitioner for many years due to love, but it did give him an extremely firm foundation. He was close to breaking through soon too.

“Luck has never been a factor in cultivation. Though, you did miss another good show.”

“Really? Tell me about it.” Li Qingshan feigned interest.

Hua Chengzan told him about everything that had happened in the Clear River prefecture during the time he spent in secluded cultivation one by one.

“I think it’d be better to see fewer of these ‘good shows’. I didn’t expect the moon demon to become so powerful already. If he goes crazy, there’ll be quite the danger. I definitely won’t be loitering around near Moon Court lake before I reach Golden Core. Alright, I’m going to go. I’ll have to trouble vice commander Hua to continue with your efforts.”

Li Qingshan patted Hua Chengzan’s shoulder and was about to leave.

“Wait, there’s something else…”

Before Hua Chengzan could finish, a cold bellow rang out from the window, “To think such a timid and overcautious person would be worthy of becoming a Scarlet Hawk commander!”

When Li Qingshan first heard the voice, he had yet to sense the existence of an aura, but as soon as he had heard a few words, a small, thin, and tremendous figure had already appeared before him.

The small and thin was referring to his size. The tremendous was referring to his aura.

“Who are you? State your name!”

Li Qingshan shouted out, but he recognised this person with a single glance. He was slightly surprised. Wen Zhengming of Pine Sough academy! He’s come so quickly! Looks like he’s in a hurry to avenge his disciple. I really can’t leave even for a moment!



However, Li Qingshan had already clashed with a Daemon Commander like Lolth and a Golden Core cultivator like Zhou Tong, so he was not exactly afraid of this Wen Zhengming right now. He thought to himself, It’s not like I know this bastard. If I kill him, then I kill him. He should end up dropping some good loot.

Wen Zhengming completely ignored Li Qingshan. Hua Chengzan shot a glance at Li Qingshan and bowed politely. “I’m Hua Chengzan. Greetings, senior. May I ask where the other three seniors are?”

Li Qingshan bowed as well, but his heart lurched, Other three?! Seniors?!

In other words, it was not one person making trouble for him this time, but four. Four Golden Core cultivators.

What an occasion!





Chapter 525: Seeing Qiongzhi Again | Legend of the Great Sage




Hua Chengzan said in a hurry, “Qingshan, this is head scholar Wen of Pine Sough academy!”

“They will be here when they arrive. Give me all the information on that wretched daemon.”

Li Qingshan could not help but praise, How meticulous!

Four Golden Core cultivators would be facing a single Daemon General. He was outnumbering the weaker opponent by four-to-one, yet he still wanted to closely study any information regarding the opponent. He showed no conceit or arrogance at all. An attitude like this in itself was already rather terrifying.

It would be fine if he did nothing, but once he struck, it would be certain death.

Hua Chengzan said, “Please come with me, senior!”

Before Wen Zhengming left, he lectured Li Qingshan again, “You must live up to the responsibilities of your position. Since you’re a Scarlet Hawk commander, how can you only think for yourself and neglect the greater good of the world around you? You are to blame for daemons running amok!”

Li Qingshan said, “The matters of the world will obviously have people of the world to handle them. Now that the war has finally come to a close after so much difficulty, the common people require peace and contentment to rebuild their homes. If it weren’t for the sake of your disciple’s revenge, why would you have lowered yourself to such a level in the first place, senior? I just wonder how many people by the shore of Moon Court lake will suffer once the battle begins.”
