Cultivation: Start From Upgrading My Computer-Chapter 18

Wash Away the Injustice

Cheng Xu’s face darkened. He activated his protective upstanding Qi and used the mysterious water spell to release a surging water flow to resist the attack. His and Hu Jiaojiao’s attack collided in midair, setting off layers of airwaves.

“?!”

Hu Jiaojiao’s eyes widened in shock, clearly not expecting him to be able to block her attack. After all, she was already in the early stage of the foundation building realm.

The crowd also became surprised by the strength of this Medicine Celestial Valley disciple. Of course, they were more curious about the relationship between Cheng Xu and Hu Jiaojiao.

“Hu Jiaojiao, I won’t stoop down to your level for the sake of our friendship. Are you still not done? What happened that day was purely an accident. I didn’t see anything, so why do you have to force me so hard?” Cheng Xu said coldly.

“Damn it! Do you think you can gloss over it just by saying you didn’t see it?” Hu Jiaojiao retorted hysterically. While she spoke, the vital essence in her body poured madly into the sword as if to penetrate the water curtain of the mysterious water spell.

…

On the high platform, the leaders of the various sects who were still joking and laughing a second ago froze in place immediately.

“What the hell? Why did they start fighting? Whose disciple is so improper?” the Divine Gaze Hall Master said unhappily.

“I think one of them is the granddaughter of elder Hu of the Yunzhong Sect. The other one seems to be a disciple of the Medicine Celestial Valley,” Sect Leader Miao Fameng said with a strange expression.

As soon as Perfected Pill Yang saw that the disciples fighting were Cheng Xu and Hu Jiaojiao, he immediately understood the reason.

“Jiaojiao, this girl, is really getting more and more mischievous!” said Daoist Cloudstep, his expression not too good. After he finished speaking, he flew up into the sky and left. The other sect leaders also flew up, following him to watch the fun without minding the matter.

In the crowd, Yang Tianqi was surprised that Cheng Xu had become a Medicine Immortal Valley disciple. Seeing the two of them fighting, he quickly stepped forward, planning to stop them. At this time, five figures flew past above his head. He had no choice but to stop when he saw the leaders of the various sects.

Bang! Bang!

Perfected Being Cloudstep gently waved his sleeve and forced Cheng Xu and Hu Jiaojiao back. He scolded, “Girl, don’t mess around!”

Hu Jiaojiao’s face turned red as she pointed at Cheng Xu and complained, “Sect Leader Martial Uncle, it’s him! He’s the outer sect lecher who peeked at me before! I don’t know why he became a disciple of the Medicine Celestial Valley.”

“What?” Daoist Cloudrise, astonished, looked at Cheng Xu, who was currently dressed in the robes of the Medicine Immortal Valley. Confused, he asked, “A disciple of my sect?”

He was not the only one. Everyone present was stunned, especially the disciples of the Yunzhong Sect. Daoist Cloudrise hesitantly confirmed, “Little guy, you’re a disciple of our Yunzhong Sect?”

“I was before,” Cheng Xu calmly replied.

Perfected Being Tayun frowned and looked at Perfected Being Dan Yang in confusion. He said, “Daoist Dan Yang, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”

“There’s nothing to explain,” Reverend Dan Yang said calmly. “Your Yunzhong sect didn’t want him, but my Chi Yao happened to meet him. He saw that this little guy had a bit of talent in alchemy, so he accepted him into the sect. Is there a problem?”

“Chi Yao Zhenren’s disciple?” Daoist Cloudrise and the other sect leaders expressed their surprise.

The disciples of the various sects were even more stunned when they heard this. For a time, Cheng Xu had undoubtedly become the subject of everyone’s discussion.

“Chi Yao Zhenren, the so-called number one Alchemist in Little Southern Heaven, the Fleeing Zhenren?”

“No, no, no. That’s not the point. The point is that the kid used to be an outer disciple of Yunzhong Sect, but now he’s a disciple of Medicine Celestial Valley.”

“That’s right. Isn’t this clearly not giving face to Yunzhong Sect? Isn’t this deliberately going against them?”

“Uh, shouldn’t the main point be what fairy Hu said? This brat actually dared to peek at fairy Hu?”

“~I’m afraid he had peeked at some incredible scene~!”

“This is simply preposterous! Man and God are both angry!”

“Such a despicable person deserved to be expelled from the sect. However, the Medicine Celestial Valley clearly knows that he is immoral. Why did they still accept him as a disciple?”

“Could it be that the brat’s alchemy talent is so strong that his character can be ignored?”

“That’s impossible. If he really has such amazing talent, how could he only be an outer disciple of Yunzhong Sect?”

“Why not? Yunzhong Sect doesn’t pay attention when it comes to refining medicine.”

…

On the side of the Milky Way battleship, except for Yan Changfeng, the heaven’s chosen from the other three sects all looked like they were watching a show.

“Brother Tang, does your medicine immortal Valley not care about your reputation anymore?”

“My Junior Brother Cheng has already said it was just an accident. And with Junior Brother Cheng’s character, he wouldn’t do such a despicable thing,” Tang Xuan said with narrowed eyes.

“Even so,” Yan Changfeng muttered, “Wouldn’t it also depend on what outsiders think?”

“Outsiders can see it however they want. In any case, the entire Medicine Celestial Valley acknowledges Junior Brother Cheng.”

“It seems your Medicine Celestial Valley values this kid a lot!” Yan Changfeng remarked. He was secretly surprised. “It makes sense. A person who can be chosen by Chi Yao Zhenren must have extraordinary talent in refining medicine.”

“It’s not just his talent in alchemy. Junior Brother Cheng is someone who received the recognition of our Grandmaster’s inheritance,” Tang Xuan replied. “His future is limitless.”

Hearing this, the paragons of the other three sects all looked at him in shock.

“Really? Your Medicine Celestial Valley’s ancestor left behind an inheritance?”

“What are you talking about? Which family doesn’t have a bit of inheritance from their ancestors? It’s just that no one has been able to understand the mysteries within.”

“I see.”

“No wonder Reverend Dan Yang is so protective of him,” Yan Changfeng nodded in realization.

…

On the side of the various sect leaders, Daoist Cloudrise had a strange expression as he asked, “Has your sect already reached such a state of insatiability?”

“What do you mean by that? Little Cheng is so outstanding,” Immortal Dan Yang said grumpily. “The Medicine Immortal Valley is looking forward to having a few more disciples like him.”

“Is that so?” Seeing that Perfected Pill Yang was so protective of Cheng Xu, Perfected Cloudrise naturally had to give him some face. “Fine. If your sect likes this abandoned disciple of my Yunzhong Sect, then we have nothing to say.”

However, he couldn’t figure out what was so special about Cheng Xu that the Medicine Celestial Valley would place so much importance on him.

Perfected Dan Yang wasn’t stupid. He could naturally hear Perfected Being Tayun’s sarcasm, but his heart didn’t waver at all. Instead, he grinned and replied, “Same! Same!”

Daoist Master Cloudstep was completely befuddled. He turned to look at Hu Jiaojiao, who was gritting her teeth, and said, “Enough, girl. Since Cheng Xu has already received the punishment he deserves, this matter is over. From now on, he is a disciple of Medicine Celestial Valley, so you must not act rashly.”

“What?” Hu Jiaojiao’s beautiful eyes widened. “You’re letting him off just like that?”

“What else do you want? Are you trying to kill my Medicine Celestial Valley’s disciples?” Immortal Dan Yang retorted, obviously annoyed at the girl. “Even if your grandfather, Hu Banxian, were here, he wouldn’t be able to touch a hair on Cheng Xu, let alone a little girl like you!”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the scene instantly became strange. Even the leaders of the other three sects gasped in surprise.

“Daoist Elixir Yang, what do you mean by this?” Tayun Zhenren’s face darkened. He didn’t expect Dan Yang would become so angry.

“Hmph! I’m sure you’re well aware of this girl’s character, fellow Daoist,” Immortal Dan Yang snorted. “Cheng Xu has said that what happened before was purely an accident. As for whether it’s true or not, fellow Daoist, you should have your own judgment.”

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the sect master of the Scorching Sun Sect quickly came out to smooth things over. “Please calm down. It’s just a small matter. Why do you have to make it so unpleasant?”

“What right does he have to say it wasn’t on purpose?!” Hu Jiaojiao bit her lip stubbornly.

At that moment, Cheng Xu finally had the chance to defend himself. He began, “Let me ask you. Didn’t I fall into the pool from the sky?”

“Have you ever seen anyone peeking from a thousand-foot cliff? Besides, the mountain range in the clouds is always covered in clouds and mist. I need to be able to see it if I want to peek.”

“If you didn’t intend to peep, how could you have just happened to appear in that place?” Hu Jiaojiao replied stubbornly.

“Your sect should still have a record of the herb-picking mission I accepted that day,” Cheng Xu said with a smile.”You can go and verify it.”

“Why would you need to go up the cliff to pick herbs?”

“As an Alchemist, Miss Hu should know where the flying eave grass grows, right? The flying eave grass located at the place where I fell that day should still be in its original place,” Cheng Xu continued, “You can go and check it out.”

“Y-y-you…” Hu Jiaojiao’s face turned red. “Who allowed you to fall down?!”

“…” Cheng Xu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “The rock suddenly cracked. What could I have done? Moreover, the place where I fell into the lake was at least two hundred feet away from you. As soon as I floated up, you knocked me out and tied me up in the Law Enforcement Hall. How could you say that I was peeking?”

At this point, anyone with a brain could understand what had happened.

The leaders of the other three sects looked at each other. They could also tell that Hu Jiaojiao was the one who was at fault.

On the other hand, Reverend Dan Yang snorted and straightened his back.

Only Daoist Master Tayun had an awkward expression. He asked, “Why didn’t you explain this to the Law Enforcement Hall back then?”

“Even if I wanted to explain, there has to be someone to listen, right? I’m just an outer sect disciple,” Cheng Xu helplessly shrugged.

“Fine, since you’ve already joined the Medicine Celestial Valley, this matter is over,” Daoist Cloudrise stated as his face darkened. He looked at Hu Jiaojiao and said, “Why aren’t you retreating?”

“Hmph!” Hu Jiaojiao stomped her feet and left.

At this point, the truth finally came to light and successfully redressed Cheng Xu’s grievances.

“Alright, do what you need to do. Don’t crowd around,” Daoist Master Tayun waved his hand to disperse the crowd, turned to them, and apologized, “I’m sorry. I’ve made a fool of myself.”

“It’s fine, it’s fine,” Reverend Dan Yang waved his hand as well. “It’s not a big deal.”

After the leaders exchanged some pleasantries, they flew back to the high platform while chatting and laughing.

Cheng Xu, who had successfully defended himself, had never felt so carefree. Just as he was about to continue forming a team, he suddenly saw a familiar figure in white in the crowd. It was the little rich woman, Bai Ci’er.

At this time, three elite disciples of the other three sects followed Bai Ci’er. The Scorching Sun Sect disciple, a cultivator in the early stage of the foundation building realm, was obviously interested in her. He had been following behind her, telling all kinds of cold jokes that made people speechless.

Bai Ci’er looked like she didn’t want to talk to the disciple of the Scorching Sun Sect. After the crowd dispersed, she walked over to Cheng Xu with a chuckle. “I didn’t expect Junior Brother Cheng to reach the peak-stage of Qi refining so quickly.”

“Isn’t fairy the same?” Cheng Xu smiled politely.

“It seems like Junior Brother Cheng is living a good life in the Medicine Celestial Valley.”

“It’s alright. Anyway, it’s much better than when we were at the Yunzhong sect,” Cheng Xu grinned. Then he sensed the hostile look from the Scorching Sun Sect disciple and asked, “Is this group your teammates, fairy?”

“Yes, they are,” Bai Ci’er answered with a smile and introduced, “This is Wondrous Technique Sect’s senior sister Han Yue. This is Divine Hall’s senior brother Yue Yang. They’re both from the same cultivation clan. We’re old acquaintances.”

After Bai Ci’er introduced the two of them, she ignored the one from the Scorching Sun Sect.

Oh… Cheng Xu glanced at the scorching sun sect disciple with a faint smile. He said, “Count me in?”
