Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 143: Chapter 103: Chu Wolf_1

Translator: 549690339

Because the students recruited were mostly from various sects of Taoism and impoverished farming families, Guo Bei Academy had always had the tradition of spring break. They would take a break in spring to return to the fields to plow and plant and only after that would they return to the academy to study.

Moreover, the “principal” led by example, and its influence trickled down so that agriculture surprisingly became the mainstream hobby of the Guo Bei students without them realizing.

Whether it was just for show, out of genuine interest, or in order to stand out, during spring break a large number of Guo Bei students would head to the fields to engage in farming and sericulture.

Even the Xin Family’s Fox, who was usually lazy and pampered, was no exception.

“The sealwort in the fields is growing even better now.”

“I wonder when it can be used as medicine.”

“Why use it as medicine when it’s so bitter? It’s better to make it into soup.”

“The young master is truly talented; he actually invented the Method of Cultural Qi Farming. Not only has the ordinary rice harvest been abundant, but it has also cultivated various precious Spiritual Medicines.”

“I heard that even in the master’s medicinal field, there are ginseng and ganoderma with hundreds of years of medicinal age, including sealwort. Even the Spell King Shifa from Mingxiao Taoist Temple sometimes comes to ask the master for medicines for Alchemy.”

“Ordinary scholars and literati are all engrossed in studying poetry and literature and striving to obtain titles and fame to gather Cultural Qi and increase their Cultivation. Who would be willing to use their own Cultural Qi to nurture others?”

“It is only after obtaining a title and an official position that one would ensure the agricultural production of a region. But most would use the power of their official status and the faith of the people to ensure favorable weather, taking from the people and using it for them, who would consume their own Cultural Qi and damage the foundation of their Cultivation?”

“The young master’s method is truly brilliant. Although he doesn’t take tribute, when students enter the academy, most accumulate some Cultural Qi after hard study. By applying it to farming, production is sure to increase; it can be said that Cultural Qi has replaced tribute.”

“With this method, in recent years, the academy’s farmlands and the estates under the name of Li Mansion have all had abundant harvests. Grain shops, oil shops, and businesses like martial arts schools and medical halls have also been thriving more and more each day.”

“Shisi, you must seize this opportunity. You can’t let another vixen steal such wealth from you.”

“Second sister, don’t talk nonsense…”

“Ha ha, I am a fox after all, shouldn’t talking nonsense be expected of me?”

The nineteen foxes of the Xin Family, both big and small, larks and swallows, had been playing and frolicking non-stop ever since they returned from the fields.

Miss Xin Shisi was among them, carrying a bamboo basket with her small face blushing from her sisters’ teasing.

Just as the group of foxes was frolicking and causing a ruckus…

“Whoosh!”

A blast of evil wind blew over, shrouding the surroundings in a sudden fog.

“Hm?!”

“Big sister!”

“Something seems wrong!”

The Xin family foxes also sensed something, stopping in their tracks with looks of alarmed confusion as they gazed around.

“Ladies.”

At that moment, a frivolous voice sounded, and a person emerged from the fog, holding a folding fan and bowing with a greeting, “I pay my respects to you ladies from across the way.”

It was a young man dressed in luxurious clothing, handsome and extraordinary.

“This…”

The Xin family foxes looked at each other with alarmed confusion, eventually, the oldest remained calm and stood in front of her sisters, “Who are you who dares to create disturbances here?”

“Me? A person?”

The young man gave a chilling smile, “Oh? Do I look like a person to you?”

As he said this, he lifted his head, revealing not a human face at all!

But rather…

A wolf’s head, a huge wolf’s head.

With blue-black fur and fierce features, matched with his brocade garments and human limbs, the sight was shockingly terrifying.

“A wolf!!!”

Even though they had already suspected the stranger to be unusual, seeing this sight still made the Xin family foxes panic.

“I am Chu Cai from Mount Mang. I am pleased to meet you, ladies!”

At this, the “wolf gentleman” gave a sinister smile and introduced himself to the terrified fox girls.

“Mount Mang?”

“Chu Cai?”

“You…!”

The Xin family foxes came to a realization, their expressions turning even more horrified, “You are the Chu Family Wolf from Mount Mang!!!”

“Indeed!”

The wolffish young man named Chu Cai smiled, opening his folding fan and speaking with grace, “Indeed, I am from the Chu Family of Mount Mang.”

“Big sister!”

At this, the group of foxes became even more panicked, instinctively huddling behind their older sisters.

The elder Xin Family fox sister barely managed to maintain her composure, shielding her younger sisters behind her, and looked at the Chu Family Wolf with uncertain fear, “What do you want?”

“Ladies, there is no need to be afraid. I mean no harm,” said Chu Cai with a smile, turning his gaze to Miss Xin Shisi among the group of foxes, “My visit today is not to trouble you, ladies, but rather, I have come to offer a piece of joyous news for you.”

“Joyous news?”

“What joyous news!”

Naturally, the Xin family foxes didn’t believe his words, becoming even more wary.

“Ha ha!”

Chu Cai laughed, his wolfish eyes glinting menacingly, “I have long heard that the foxes of the Xin Family are stunningly beautiful, peerlessly exquisite, beyond compare. Now that I have seen it for myself, it is indeed true. I, unworthy as I may be, wish to ask for the hand of a fox maiden from the Xin Family to become my wife in the Chu Family of Mount Mang. I wonder what you ladies think?”

“What?”

All the foxes were taken aback upon hearing this.

In this world, humans have their own societal norms, and demons have their own Martial World.

Aside from those wild Spirit Monsters who became what they are midway through life, other demons have lineages and traditions.

Like them, the sisters are known as “Xin Family’s Fox” from Yellow Mountain, also considered a renowned family among Spirit Monsters.

And the person before them is even more significant. He comes from the Chu Family of Mount Mang, the greatly infamous Chu Family Wolf.

Alive in Suhang, buried in Mount Mang!

Mount Mang, a place of Immortal Spirits, is not only sought after by emperors and nobility for burial, ensuring an auspicious afterlife, but even the Supreme Taoist Ancestor and the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master among other great Taoist founders had also practiced there, making it one of the ancestral grounds of Taoism.
