I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

An Lin recounted many of his experiences in the cultivating world to Ye Ling, filling her with a yearning toward the world as well as unbridled enthusiasm for cultivation.

Ye Ling’s aptitude was very good. She had only cultivated for three months, but she was already at the second-stage Dao Body and was approaching the third-stage Dao Body. This was quite a quick rate even among all of the prodigies he had seen.

He felt like Ye Ling was basically a treasure that had appeared on his doorstep.

Come to think of it, he seemed to have encountered both of these disciples under rather comical circumstances.

Xiao Ze had given him everything he owned before begging to become his disciple.

Ye Ling had gone even further. She had traveled all the way to the grand opening of his sect as a mortal after being encouraged to do so by some random and dodgy clairvoyant daoist priest and had almost died before she finally had a chance to meet An Lin.

An Lin suddenly felt like both of his disciples had pretty much thrust themselves upon him!

However, he didn’t think too much of this. Soon, his mind had drifted to what present he should be giving to his adorable disciple.

“Take these ninth-grade spirit fruits. They can replenish your blood and energy, as well as fortify your skeletal structure and meridians. Make sure you only eat one once a week. Don’t stuff yourself.” An Lin passed a bag of green spirit fruits to Ye Ling.

Ye Ling hugged the bag of fruits to herself with her little arms as if she were cradling a priceless treasure. “Don’t worry, Master, I’ll make sure to only eat one once a week!”

If someone else were around to hear their conversation, they would probably be sobbing from the sheer injustice of the situation.

Spirit fruits were highly sought after items, but this Master was worried that his disciple would stuff herself on spirit fruits?!

This was a valid concern. After all, a second stage Dao Body cultivator shouldn’t be ingesting fruits with excessive energy content.

This was probably a predicament that only the disciples of a tycoon master had to contend with.

Everyone was still drinking porridge and trying their best to survive.

Meanwhile, Ye Ling: Why not eat some spirit fruits?

Everyone else: F*ck off!

At the sight of her obedient expression, An Lin couldn’t help but rub Ye Ling’s adorable little head.

When he wasn’t around, his eldest disciple, Xiao Ze, would be responsible for training Ye Ling.

Xiao Ze was a Primordial Dragon Tribe mighty figure who was also at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage, so he was more than qualified to instruct Ye Ling. As such, An Lin didn’t see the need for Ye Ling to follow him around every day.

After chatting some more about some cultivation topics, he accompanied his disciple back to her room.

After that, he rounded up all of the pavilion lords to discuss the future development of the sect.

Xiao Ze, Tina, Xue Zhantian, Xiao Chou, Bai Ling, Liu Qianhuan, the White-Scaled Wolf God, and Bryce gathered at the meeting chamber to participate in the discussion.

“Bai Ling, I’ll leave it to you to assign rewards and the appropriate trials to those seventeen outer-sect disciples who discovered the spirit stone mine. If you find someone you deem worthy, you can make them an inner-sect disciple at your discretion,” An Lin instructed.

“No problem. I love organizing trials for people.” A gentle smile appeared on Bai Ling’s face, but a chill ran down everyone’s spine for some reason.

An Lin cleared his throat. “Let’s tally up the total wealth of the sect first.”

It was Xiao Ze’s turn to take the stage as he was the treasurer of the sect. He cleared his throat before delivering his report.

“Our sect currently has one mystic realm and one large spirit stone mine with a total capacity of one hundred and fifty million spirit stones. The sect currently has fifty million spirit stones in fluid funds, which are mainly used for the daily operation of the sect, including purchasing cultivation resources, expanding our territory, searching for treasures, and things of that nature…”

Xiao Ze’s report was quite detailed and exemplary.

In the past three months, the main reward the sect had harvested was that large spirit stone mine. Aside from that, they also had the spirit stones from completing the mission assigned to them by the Heavenly Court, as well as some spirit fruits, precious resources, and materials secured by the outer-sect disciples during their expeditions.

An Lin was quite satisfied with how things were going.

He was already ecstatic that they weren’t losing money.

After that, it was time for Bai Ling, who was responsible for human resources and education, to deliver her report.

“All of the core disciples within the sect are cultivating in a systematic manner. The disciple with the highest cultivation base is Bei Lian, who recently progressed to the Soul Formation Final Stage, while the disciples with the lowest cultivation bases are Chu Ming and Zhou Yu, who have only recently reached the first-stage Dao Body.” For some reason, Bai Ling was not ashamed in the slightest at how low the cultivation bases of her disciples were, but instead, she was a little smug about it.

An Lin was curious. “Aren’t you worried about their rates of progression?”

Bai Ling’s brows perked up slightly. “What’s the point of cultivating if they aren’t well-grounded in fundamental knowledge? Knowledge is power, and I’ll be showing all of you exactly what that means in the not-too-distant future.”

An Lin had no response to this.

“By the way, when are we going to recruit people to the Blood Pavilion? Bryce has been on his own for a long time,” Bai Ling inquired.

However, Bryce himself didn’t seem to be very bothered by this. “That’s alright, you don’t have to be concerned about me. I’m fine as I am basking under the sun every day and just being a carefree tree person.”

“But you’re not a plant, you’re a Blood Tribe cultivator!” An Lin reminded him.

A melancholy expression appeared on Bryce’s face. “If it were possible, I would rather be a plant.”

An Lin: “…”

What the hell was going on with Bryce?

Why did it look like he was an old man about to go into retirement?!

No! An Lin refused to have such a lazy pavilion lord in his Four Nine Immortal Sect!

He flicked a drop of blood toward Bryce.

Bryce was just minding his own business with a tranquil expression when his eyes suddenly lit up with green light. He stuck his tongue out and swallowed the drop of blood before his body began to tremble violently.

“Hmm… Ahh… So good!

“I feel so satisfied, as if my entire body has been elevated to a higher level of existence!”

Bryce’s moans erupted throughout the entire meeting room.

Everyone stared speechlessly at the tree person going into orgasm mode.

Liu Qianhuan turned to An Lin with an expression of displeasure. “Can’t you wait until no one’s around before you start making tree people do strange things?”

A sheepish smile appeared on An Lin’s face. He didn’t think that Bryce would have such a strong reaction to his blood.

“F*ck it! Becoming a tree and going into retirement is stupid!

“I want to be a Blood Tribe mighty figure with dreams and ambitions!”

Bryce turned to An Lin with scorching light in his eyes. “I’m willing to lay down my life for the sect leader!”

An Lin: “…”

Why did it feel like things had gone and developed in another direction…

“It’s to lay down your life for the sect, not me!” An Lin corrected.

“That’s right! I’m willing to lay down my life for the sect!” Bryce roared before turning his scorching eyes upon An Lin again.

He continued to stare at An Lin with unbridled passion and yearning, and there was even resin flowing from his mouth.

An Lin: “…”

“Ahem… Er… let’s just leave the Blood Pavilion alone for now. We can work on developing the Blood Pavilion after the return of the three Blood Tribe Holy Disciples.” An Lin was getting a little uncomfortable from Bryce’s scorching gaze as he continued, “Bryce will be responsible for constructing a cultivation ground for the Blood Tribe mighty figures; one that can facilitate the cultivations of ten Return to Void Stage mighty figures and a hundred Soul Formation Stage cultivators!”

Gasp…

Everyone’s heart surged with excitement upon hearing this.

This was going to be an extremely fearsome hidden force.

Its unveiling would undoubtedly create a massive stir across the entire continent!

“Yes, Sect Leader!” Bryce was full of vigor as he accepted his new role.

An Lin’s expression sharpened as he looked around at the people gathered in the room. “Next, I have a very important announcement to make. We are officially beginning trials for our divine mirror enforcement team!

“I’m going to let the pavilion lord of the Spirit Pavilion, as well as the team leader of the divine mirror enforcement team, Tina, take over from here!”
