Chapter 569
They kept eating.Hundred-year ginsengs. Rare spirit mushrooms. Spirit fruits and leaves that glowed faintly under the lantern light. Trays of precious herbs that would have driven ordinary disciples mad with envy.Alex ate everything they pushed toward him. So did the other fatties.He swallowed until his vision blurred. The rich spiritual energy surged through his veins like fire. His head spun. His face flushed red. Heat rolled off his skin, and soon white steam curled from the top of his head as if he were a boiling kettle.He felt drunk.No—worse than drunk.The more he forced himself to eat, the warmer Big Fatty and the others became. Their eyes softened. Their grins widened. They watched him like proud older brothers initiating a new recruit into a secret order.By the end, they leaned back, slapped their massive stomachs, and burst into booming laughter. The kitchen shook with it.“Everyone,” Big Fatty First announced, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. “We follow tra

Alex had already done the math in his head. If they rushed him together—him, a nobody with no backing, no allies—he would die.Not maybe. Not possibly. One hundred percent.“You’re the Ninth, right?” Wang Junhao shouted, pointing straight at him.Alex immediately forced an innocent look onto his face. “No. You’ve got the wrong person. You’re knocking on the wrong door.”“Liar!” Wang Junhao roared. His hands clenched into fists as he stared at Alex like he wanted to tear him apart. “You’re not fat. You’re obviously a newbie!”“Senior Wang Junhao,” one of the men behind him said impatiently. “Enough talking. Let’s just kill him now!”“Yes!” another agreed at once.They started advancing. One of them kicked the door without hesitation. The wooden door exploded inward with a single blow, splintering apart.Alex could see it clearly now. Every face was twisted with rage. These people weren’t bluffing. They looked ready to kill him on the spot.“Pure Snow Sword Maiden Li Qingxue brought me

Alex was too stunned to speak as the fat woman led him away from the building and onto a nearby path, talking the entire time.Her voice was flat and practiced as she explained the basic rules and customs of the Wudang Sect, as if she had repeated the same words a thousand times before.The path beneath their feet was paved with smooth green limestone, winding through layers of courtyards and elegant buildings.Fragrant plants and blooming flowers filled the air, their scent light and intoxicating.The entire place felt unreal—serene, lofty, almost divine, like a paradise carved out of the mortal world.Alex felt it immediately.Once, he had been a cultivator. Even now, his instincts had not dulled.The natural energy here was astonishingly dense, the kind Xia cultivators called Heaven and Earth Energy. It pressed gently against his skin, seeped into his lungs, and soaked into his bones.Just breathing here refreshed his cells.His thoughts sharpened.On Earth, he had about five years

Alex knew at once that he had blacked out.He had been unable to withstand the invisible pressure released by Wu Bu—the Tiger of Wuhan. Wu Bu had only leaked a trace of his Immortal force, just enough to crush the servants to their knees.It was meant as a warning. A show of dominance. Not an attempt to harm mortals.But Wu Bu did not know the truth.Alex was not from Xia.His body was far weaker than that of an ordinary Xia citizen. What others could endure with clenched teeth had shattered him.Bones strained. Organs screamed. Darkness swallowed his vision.That was why he collapsed.What shocked him now was what came after.When Alex opened his eyes, he was no longer in the City Lord’s residence.He was flying.Cold wind tore past his face as the ground rushed far below. Endless forest stretched beneath him. Beside him—no, holding him—was Li Qingxue.One of her hands was clenched in Alex’s collar, lifting him effortlessly. His body dangled in the air, feet useless, like prey caught

Li Qingxue raised her hand. The simple gesture silenced everyone at once.“Enough,” she said calmly. “This is nothing but mortal gossip. Those who seek immortality should not be affected by such petty stories.”“But it will damage your reputation,” one of her friends insisted, her brows tightly knit.Li Qingxue shook her head. “As long as my heart is pure, I don’t care what others say.”She turned her gaze toward a junior disciple standing nearby.“Junior,” she said evenly, “go and warn the Outer Disciples. Tell them to stop spreading rumors immediately. I will never tolerate fabricated stories. They are to stop disturbing mortals and focus on their cultivation.”“Yes, Senior,” the junior replied without hesitation. He bowed deeply, then turned and left at once.Those who truly knew Li Qingxue understood her well.She wanted nothing except cultivation. Cold. Detached. Untouchable.She had never shown interest in mortal affairs, nor in anyone beneath the heavens.Yet when the warning r

“Hey, Zhuge Liang.” Alex glanced at him lazily. “If that woman kills me, you’ll lose your position as Acting City Lord.”He turned back to the bed, dragged the blanket over himself, and lay down as if the world outside no longer existed.“Handle it yourself,” Alex added with a wide yawn. “I’m going to sleep. Tell her to stop screaming at the gate.”“Sir,” Zhuge Liang said quickly, his voice tense, “she is an Immortal. We mortals should not provoke Immortals.”Alex opened one eye. “So that means she can provoke mortals instead?” he replied flatly.“Anyway, speaking of Immortals… we actually know one, don’t we? Li Qingxue. She gave me a communication talisman.”He reached under his pillow, took out a talisman, and tossed it toward Zhuge Liang without even sitting up.“Use it if you need to,” Alex said. Then he turned over and closed his eyes again.—Outside the Bai Family gate.Murong Yue’s face was burning red.Since joining the Wudang Sect, almost no one had ever dared to look down o
