I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

d out, too! There have been a lot more demonic worshippers, too!”

Zhou Dacheng was shocked.
“It’s gotten that serious already?”

Qin Manyun sighed and said, “Too many people were affected by this disaster.
The bridge to immortality has been broken for too long.
A lot of Immortals didn’t want to be summoned, so people are losing faith in Immortals, too.
Plus, the demons were preaching their beliefs on the Lord Demon God, so the people were easily swayed.

“Even in the Southside, they have built a kingdom for the Lord Demon God.
They’ve waged wars and colonized areas.
If they manage to gather the common people in the Immortal Realm, I’m afraid that…”

Zhou Dacheng frowned and said, “All these years, as cultivators, we’ve underestimated the power of the people.”

Common people were the majority.
It would be deadly if mainstream mindsets were to change.

“The more important thing is…” Qin Manyun took a deep breath and said, “It seems like there are signs of the plague in our area!”

“What?!” Zhou Dacheng exclaimed in disbelief.
“It has spread so fast that it’s in our area?”

“It’s not supposed to be, but it’s a different case since the demons interfered.” Qin Manyun slightly fumbled as she continued, “That’s why it’s an emergency.
We have to find the Master.
He has to decide how to deal with this.”

“Your Master?” Zhou Dacheng instantly looked strange.
It looked like he had something to say but could not say it.

Qin Manyun had a bad feeling about this as she asked, “What?”

Did something happen to her Sect Master?

Zhou Dacheng stuttered, “Sect Master, he… I’m afraid he doesn’t have the energy to deal with this for now…”

Qin Manyun was shocked.
She worriedly asked, “Did something happen to Master? Where is he?”

Zhou Dacheng said in a conflicted tone, “At the temple.”

Qin Manyun immediately flew to the temple of the Linxian Palace.

Yao Mengji was there, along with the three elders of the Linxian Palace.

However, Yao Mengji was in a terrible condition.
He looked dirty and pale with sunken eyes.
He seemed to have become slimmer.
He went from a cool old man to a weak old man in merely a few days.

Qin Manyun jumped.
She teared up and said in a pitiful tone, “Master, you’re old… Were you attacked by some powerful demon? How inhumane of them!”

Yao Mengji did not look happy.
He glanced at Qin Manyun and said in a hoarse voice, “Manyun, you know it’s not easy being this old, stop insulting my reputation.”

“Then, Master…”

“I exhausted myself for the future of the Linxian Palace.”

Yao Mengji sounded miserable and stubborn.
He continued, “I’ve been spitting out blood for the last few days trying to summon the Linxian Palace Immortal.
But the Immortal won’t show up, so I kept spitting blood until I’m now like this.”

Qin Manyun was instantly speechless.
She said, “Master, you don’t have to do this.
Maybe the Immortal’s busy.
Summon him some other time.”

“My student, times have changed.
Once the bridge to immortality is reconnected, we’ll be in the new era of battling with Immortal ancestors soon.
The two Gu Siblings and their grandfather of the Azure Ville will be our strong competitor! It’ll be too late if we don’t summon our ancestors soon!”

Yao Mengji said, “I’ve had enough rest.
Give me an energy pill.
I can spit out blood one more time!”
