Chapter 123: Chapter 123: I, the Schoolmate You Cannot Afford to Bully!【Part 1】_1

Qin Shou said, "Damn it, I’m going to settle the score with him!"

The Land God chuckled and replied, "Don’t bother. It’s no use. Even if you get the bun back, you can’t explain it clearly. Besides, the meat of the Three Stars Ring-tailed Bird and the One-star Two-winged Mandarin Duck do taste quite similar. Unless you eat them often, you wouldn’t notice any difference. And even if you did notice, it’s pointless. Anyone who sells things in Shushan has some clout. Why would you want to bring that kind of trouble upon yourself?"

Hearing that there would be trouble, Qin Shou’s eyes suddenly lit up! He had saved up quite a few boards from Wenqu and intended to create some major karma to shut up the cells in his body, then he could take advantage of the opportunity to break through to Level Four of the Eight-Nine Empyrean Art.

Level Three was already so formidable, he was really looking forward to the effects of Level Four!

As the Land God suddenly asked, "Rabbit, haven’t you eaten a Three Stars Ring-tailed Bird?"

Qin Shou replied with frustration, "Where would I go to eat that? I live on the moon, that broken place, so poor that only osmanthus trees are left... I can’t even buy the basic oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar, ah..."

Upon hearing this, the Land God exclaimed, "You come from the moon?"

Qin Shou nodded, "Yes, it’s poor, but is that really something to be so shocked about?"

The Land God shook his head, "Do you know? The moon is the only place without the God of Land’s jurisdiction, an unmanned jurisdictional area."

Qin Shou was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

As he was eating his bun, the Land God explained, "Heavenly Court, although it’s touted as the Immortals’ Heavenly Court, you’ve seen it yourself. Immortals also reproduce offspring, so descendants of some Immortals live here. They gathered to form towns, establish academies, and strive to cultivate, hoping to follow in the footsteps of their ancestors to become Immortals and Saints. Therefore, Heavenly Court also has families and sects, which typically manage their own internal affairs."

However, those sects were later abolished by a decree from Heavenly Court.

The intention of Heavenly Court was clear: you may mess around in the Earthly Immortal Realm, but within Heavenly Court, there can only be one department. No sects or major forces are allowed to exist.

Likewise, Heavenly Court also experiences birth, aging, sickness, death, and the Netherworld takes away the souls of those who can’t become Immortal or can’t withstand the tribulations of heavenly beings, and they are reborn.

That’s the Three Jurisdictions.

The meaning of ’unmanned jurisdictional area’ is that no one manages the entire moon at all! Heavenly Court may glance at it, but the Netherworld completely ignores it.

If you die on the moon, you can only be a wandering ghost waiting for oblivion.

As for families, sects... you live on the moon, you know better than anyone, there’s no one there...

And I’ve heard it’s not peaceful on the moon. You be careful up there."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou clicked his tongue, "That doesn’t sound too bad, right? Quite comfortable... As for it not being peaceful, I haven’t noticed?"

Thinking about it, it seemed that the moon was fairly peaceful without his presence...

"If you haven’t noticed, that’s good. I only heard it from others; it may not be accurate. Indeed, it’s quite carefree there. But without Yuan Qi, people cannot cultivate. Cultivation is a process of progression, not regression. Even an Immortal would waste away there. It’s Heavenly Court’s cold palace, the existing Netherworld... no one wishes to go. It’s hard for you, maintaining such good character while living there," remarked the Land God empathetically.

Qin Shou blushed slightly upon hearing this.

"Rabbit, come early tomorrow, I’ll give you something nice," the Land God said just then.

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou was stunned, receiving gifts? He pointed to himself, "You’re giving me a gift?"

The Land God smiled, "Yes, I’m giving you a gift. Remember to come early, if you’re late, there won’t be any left."

After speaking, the Land God hopped off the stone pillar and into the forest.

Qin Shou called out, "You’re not keeping watch over the dog anymore?"

The Land God waved his hand, "I’ll be back in a bit."

Qin Shou rubbed his nose, never expecting that his act of gratitude would win the friendship of the Land God. He suddenly felt that being a good boy wasn’t so bad...

Unfortunately, with cells that were prone to causing trouble, he was destined not to be at peace.

"Ah... I’ll just cause trouble for those who deserve it... Yep, starting at the bun shop!" Qin Shou grinned and scampered off.

"What? One bun for a Spirit Crystal? That’s so expensive!" Li Zhenying exclaimed, looking at the half-eaten bun in her hand.

The shopkeeper raised his eyelid, "This isn’t just any ordinary bun, this is made from Nine Yang Mountain Pig. It’s not overpriced, even if it were one Spirit Crystal per bite of the bun, right?"

Hearing this, Li Zhenying shook her head, "Impossible, the meat of the Nine Yang Mountain Pig doesn’t taste like this..."

"Hey, you poor kid, you can’t afford our buns yet you come here to eat, not paying for it is one thing, but to slander our buns as fakes? Do you really think we can be bullied because we’re a small business? You should ask around whose bun shop this is!" the shopkeeper got angry.

Li Zhenying, who was naturally timid, was intimidated by the shopkeeper’s shouting and instantly got scared.

Seeing Li Zhenying scared, the shopkeeper got even more aggressive and shouted, "Friends passing by, don’t miss this, come and judge for yourselves! This little girl ate our buns and didn’t pay, and she says our buns aren’t good! Has there ever been such a brazen shameless person in the world?"

With his shouting, many people turned their attention, whispering and discussing among themselves.

"Hey, Second Brother Jiang is bullying someone again."

"It can’t be helped when someone has such a prestigious ancestor. Their family’s old patriarch is a Three Star lecturer at Wenchang Palace, someone who holds sway over the entire Wenchang Palace. As long as it’s not too excessive, who would meddle with him?"

"True, you can bully those from Wenqu Palace, but nobody can do anything about it unless it involves someone from Wenchang Palace."

"Times have changed. If this were during the period when Wenchang and Wenqu stood united, who would dare to act like this? But now it’s different, for some unknown reason, they’ve been at odds. Their students are also fiercely competitive."

"Indeed, historically, the Star Lord of Wenchang governed the auspicious fates of official career, commerce, various skills, academic advancement, and so forth."

Wenqu, on the other hand, governed things like music, chess, literature, paintings, leaning more towards the romantic fates, and incidentally, there’s some luck in love. Students of Wenqu have no singles among them. But this doesn’t concern us. We just mind our own business, and watch the excitement unfold,"

"I’m an external student of Wenchang Palace, are you not students from the academy?" a curious Wenchang student inquired.

"Of course not. Shushan isn’t just for students; there are also citizens of Heaven. We are immortals, in other words, descendants of those who haven’t left Shushan from either palace. You’re new here, right?"

"Yes, I’m from this year’s freshman class. You mentioned ’those who haven’t left Shushan,’ what does that mean? Is it really that difficult to leave Shushan?" the freshman asked curiously.
