Chapter 134 - The First Level 3 Building

The child is indeed a child.Ji Yuan estimated that he was about the same age as Wen Linger, like a seven or eight-year-old boy, with red lips and white teeth, and a golden collar around his neck, looking very cute.

But such a child gave Ji Yuan the aura of someone at the peak of Qi refining.

"New here?"

The child’s voice was crisp, sounding just like a boy’s voice.

Ji Yuan felt even more strange... Either he was truly a young prodigy, reaching the peak of Qi refining at just seven or eight years old, or his appearance didn’t match his age.

He naturally believed more in the latter.

If it were the former, a cultivator with such talent would have already been taken in as a disciple by a sect elder and wouldn’t be living here on Chulong Island.

"I am indeed. Greetings to this Daoist friend."

The child waved his hand very maturely, "My name is Tang Ran."

"I am Ji Yuan."

Tang Ran nodded, then pointed to the seventeenth house and said, "By the way, the old man living in that house is a rogue, better not trust him, or else you’ll be tricked sooner or later."

"Hmm?"

Ji Yuan’s first thought was that these two had a grudge against each other.

Before he could ask, the courtyard gate of the seventeenth house was pushed open, and an old man with white hair and beard came out, wearing a short-sleeved shirt, his arms exposed with bulging muscles, looking extremely robust. As soon as he came out, he pointed at Tang Ran and cursed:

"You bastard child, quickly call your mother over to serve me, or I’ll send you to be drowned in a pig cage."

"Old thing, even if I called my mother over, you could only drool like an old waste."

Tang Ran was completely unafraid and didn’t hold back in his words.

Ji Yuan, caught between the two, discreetly took a step back... These two neighbors seemed to have quite a feud, better not get involved.

After the old man finished speaking, he turned to Ji Yuan and said, "This Daoist friend, don’t be fooled by this kid’s appearance; he’s actually over sixty, always pretending to be young in our Water Dragon Sect, calling all the female cultivators ’sister.’

"If he meets someone more open-minded, he’ll even call her ’mother.’ It’s truly embarrassing us."

"Pfft!"

Tang Ran spat, "You’re just envious, jealous, and bitter in the end!"

Then he turned to Ji Yuan and said, "Daoist Ji, don’t believe a word from this old man. He’s an artifact refiner but always makes women’s magic robes, or turns women’s clothing into magical artifacts. Even if he makes attack magical artifacts, they’re always fans or whips for female cultivators."

"What do you know, female cultivators’ spirit stones are the easiest to earn!"

The old man cursed.

Perhaps their quarrel was so loud that cultivators from other courtyards in the distance also seemed to come out, leaning at their doors to watch the drama.

"Haha, so you earn their spirit stones and then have them change clothes in front of you?"

Tang Ran sneered.

Ji Yuan listened for a while and vaguely guessed why these two neighbors had conflicts... It seems this cultivation sect isn’t much different from Zengtou City.

After thinking a bit, he found it quite normal.

After all, cultivators are still people.

They won’t suddenly become saintly by just being in a high-class place, more likely they’ll just be like this old man, hypocritical.

Seeing the two were about to continue quarreling, Ji Yuan excused himself and returned to his room.

But it wasn’t long before the old man from the seventeenth house knocked on his door, and not only that, he also gave a mid-grade magical artifact as an apology, saying it was for disturbing the Daoist friend earlier, really sorry.

Of course, Ji Yuan couldn’t accept it, and after some polite exchanges, he also learned the old man’s real name.

Pi Fangzhi.

Quite an uncommon surname indeed.

After sending off Daoist Pi, the child Tang Ran also came over, similarly to apologize, but his way of apologizing was much simpler. First, he gave Ji Yuan thirty spirit stones and then said he would introduce some sisters to him.

"Daoist Ji, with such a good appearance, you shouldn’t waste it."

Ji Yuan quickly refused, stating he wasn’t a casual person.

After sending off these two Daoist friends, Ji Yuan again practiced diligently at home for a night.

In the following days, he roamed around the whole sect, taking the opportunity to familiarize himself with the various islands and structures of the Water Dragon Sect.

During this time, he also witnessed many scenes he hadn’t seen before.

For example, cultivators at the late stage of Qi refining, which were rare in Zengtou, were everywhere in the Water Dragon Sect.

And most of them were cultivators at the ninth or even tenth level of Qi refining, not to mention Foundation Establishment cultivators, which he used to see only once every three years, could now be seen daily in the Water Dragon Sect.

If he hung around the main island or Thousand Mechanism Island, he could see quite a few in a day.

Moreover, Ji Yuan found out that the Water Dragon Sect also had beast taming cultivators.

He originally thought beast taming cultivators were all in the Spirit Control Sect, but he didn’t expect the Water Dragon Sect to have them too, and they even rode a flying demon beast called "Sky Blue Hawk," whose speed could match some top-notch flying magical artifacts.

Of course, after several days of wandering, Ji Yuan’s most profound impression of the Water Dragon Sect was just one word.

Big!

Very big!

Even just flying from east to west would take a day, and that’s without stopping.

If he made any detours in between, a day wouldn’t be enough.

Damn, it’s truly worthy of being one of the six immortal sects of Shang Dong... After resting for a night on Chulong Island, the following morning, Ji Yuan transformed and disguised himself to visit a place called "All Things Island."
