The leader of the assassins glanced at him disappointingly.

“What do you know? Let’s not talk about the corpses of more than ten rank five demon beasts on the ground. Do you know what the demon beast in the man’s hand is?”

That subordinate shook his head.

“Humph! Ignorant fool! That demon beast in the man’s hand has a yin-yang mark on its forehead. Do you know what that means? That’s the exclusive mark of the Yin-yang Demon Eye Tiger Clan. I was once lucky enough to participate in an auction with the sect master and saw the real Yin-yang Demon Eye Tiger.”

Hearing the words of their leader, the assassins could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. The Yin-yang Demon Eye Tiger’s great name was well-known to them.

Their sect was already one of the top forces within a ten thousand kilometers radius. However, in front of the Yin-yang Demon Eye Tiger Clan, they still did not dare to act rashly. The strength of the Yin-yang Demon Eye Tiger Clan was far from what they could imagine.

The group of assassins had flown for a long distance before stopping. The leader touched his back. He realized that his clothes were already soaked with sweat. “Fortunately, that man didn’t have any killing intent. Otherwise, we’d have died on the spot.”

Su Mengli stood up with difficulty. She bowed respectfully to Su Yang and said gratefully, “Thank you for saving me.”

Su Yang shook his head and said, “This has nothing to do with me. Maybe they don’t want to chase after you anymore!”

Su Yang was also very puzzled. Those assassins knelt when they saw him and ran away without saying a word. Could it be that they ran away because they saw the corpses all over the ground? Did they think that he was a strong person? This was the only reason that made sense.

‘It seems that they’re also a bunch of ignorant fellows. Can’t they recognize such a weak demon beast?’ Su Yang mocked in his heart.

Finally, he turned to look at Su Mengli and said, “Since you’re safe, I’ll leave first.” After saying that, Su Yang carried his spoils of war and walked back without looking back.

Meanwhile, Su Mengli, who was behind him, looked at Su Yang with a dejected expression. She had long been homeless and did not know where to go. Therefore, she chose to follow behind Su Yang. At least beside Su Yang, the assassins would not dare to target her anymore.

After walking for a while, Su Yang realized that the woman seemed to be following him. He turned his head and said, “It’s useless for you to follow me. I’m just a mortal. I can’t interfere in the affairs of immortal cultivators. You’d better not follow me.”

Hearing this, Su Mengli was speechless. ‘If you’re a mortal, wouldn’t it make me not even a human? You’re telling me that a mortal can kill more than ten rank five demon beasts? Then, why do immortal cultivators cultivate?’

Seeing that his persuasion was fruitless, Su Yang continued to walk in the direction of Qingyang Town.

Su Mengli did not care whether Su Yang agreed or not. She silently followed behind him, keeping a distance of five meters. If she had a place to go, she would not choose to follow behind Su Yang. The current her was already homeless.

Along the way, Su Yang had warned her several times not to follow him. He did not have the ability, nor did he have the mood to take her in. However, Su Mengli seemed to not hear him, and she just followed him. At least by his side, Su Mengli could feel a sense of security.

When Su Yang reached the tavern, he turned to her and was about to speak. However, Su Mengli spoke first, “I have no home to return to. Please take me in, Senior. I’m willing to be your servant. I can endure hardships and do all kinds of hard work. I only hope that you can give me a place to stay.”

Looking at Su Mengli’s weak and pitiful look, Su Yang sighed helplessly. It just so happened that his small tavern was also short of a handyman.

Ever since the news of him befriending an immortal cultivator had spread, his small tavern was full every day. Su Yang could not handle all tasks by himself. In that case, he could let her stay and help out in the tavern.

Thinking of this, Su Yang said to Su Mengli, “It just so happens that my small tavern is short of a worker. You can help me with the tasks for the time being. My name is Su Yang, and I’m also the owner of this small tavern. You can call me Mr. Su, or you can call me Boss Su. It’s up to you. Let me be blunt. If I get into trouble because of you, my small tavern won’t be able to keep you.”

Su Yang knew that the world of immortal cultivators was very cruel. Since she could be hunted down by assassins, it meant that she must have enemies. Sooner or later, her enemies would find her.

Su Yang did not want to be implicated in the woman’s affairs. After all, he was just a rookie in the qi cultivation stage. He could not afford to make enemies in the immortal cultivation world.

This was the biggest concession he could make. It was not that he was ruthless, nor was it that he did not understand human relationships. It was just that the immortal cultivation world was too cruel, so he had to be careful and ruthless.

Hearing Su Yang’s words, Su Mengli immediately revealed a smile on her face. She hurriedly thanked him, “Thank you for taking me in, Senior. I’ll definitely not give you any trouble. If any enemies come looking for me in the future, I’ll offer myself. I will definitely not implicate Senior.”

Hearing this, Su Yang nodded with satisfaction and said, “In that case, come in with me.”

Su Mengli had just stepped into the door of the small tavern. In an instant, she was shocked by its environment. Majestic spirit energy circulated in the small tavern.

‘Is this really a tavern in the mortal world? Even the blessed lands don’t have it. The spirit energy here is rich! With such dense spirit energy and the dao charms visible to the naked eye, Senior is definitely a peerless expert who doesn’t appear in the world. But why is such an expert afraid that I’ll implicate him?’

Very quickly, Su Mengli understood Su Yang’s meaning.

‘The reason Senior opened a tavern in a mortal world must be that he doesn’t want to be disturbed by the immortal world. But this dense spirit energy and profound dao charms…’

…

Heavenly Sword Sect.

Long Yuan, who had departed from the tavern, flew toward the sect at the fastest speed. After returning to the sect, he went straight to his master’s abode.

“Master, your disciple has returned.” Long Yuan looked at his master, who was sitting in front of him and bowed respectfully.

Seeing Long Yuan return safely, Jiu Jian also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. With a kind smile on his face, he said, “It’s good that you’re back.”

Jiu Jian habitually probed Long Yuan’s strength. If he did not do so, he would not know if his disciple had improved or not. However, once he did, he was shocked.

His disciple had just gone out on a trip. Not only did he break through to the Golden Core Stage, but he had also broken through to the sixth level. This discovery shocked him greatly. He grabbed Long Yuan’s arm and began to examine his body.

“Disciple, did you take some forbidden medicine?”
