I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

After exterminating the two Evil Spirit Generals and defeating the Demon King of unknown strength, the murder cases of Huang Xi Village finally received a preliminary resolution.

The next morning, the villagers of Huang Xi Village all felt at ease when they woke up.

Even the air outside seemed to be purer and fresher.

Village Chief Wang Dong also experienced these feelings, and he felt as if his entire body had relaxed.

The case hasn’t even been solved yet, why do I feel so relaxed?

For some reason, An Lin and Tian Lingling popped into his mind.

He recalled that the girl seemed to refer to the male as ‘Fake Daoist Priest’.Aren’t Daoist Priests the ones who vanquish demons and monsters?

Thinking back to their little trip out last night, a speculation formed in Village Chief Wang’s mind.

“This case was very strange right from the beginning. Could it be that it really was the doings of demons and monsters, and those two were sent here by the government to capture the monsters? Why else would they act so strangely though…”

Although this speculation sounded ridiculous, Wang Dong was unable to shake it from his mind.

It was a pity that An Lin and Tian Lingling had already left Huang Xi Village though, thus, his speculation could only remain as just that, a speculation.

…

Tian Lingling submitted a report detailing the results of their mission to the National Special Operations Department.

They wouldn’t need to worry about winding up the case anymore, as the departments concerned would step in and handle it.

After he returned to the hotel, An Lin called over Huang Shanshan, Xu Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng.

The five of them sat in front of a table and carefully scrutinized the thick bundle of cobwebs laying in front of them.

“That’s right, this bundle of cobwebs is indeed the Snow King Cobweb. It can attach to spirits, and through them, suck the vitality of humans.” Huang Shanshan spoke with a tone of certainty as she fiddled with the cobwebs.

“The Snow King Cobweb is unique to the Hundred-Eyed Spider Evil Spirit King. This powerful evil spirit has been wanted for a long time in our cultivation world.

“Moreover, in addition to strengthening the seal on the demonic pagoda, we’ve also been tasked with exterminating an Evil Spirit King. Isn’t this Hundred-Eyed Spider the Evil Spirit King that we have to exterminate?” Tian Lingling’s eyes lit up.

“The Hundred-Eyed Spider is an Evil Spirit King who often appears around the demonic pagoda. It’s already been prying on the pagoda for a long time. However, our cultivators have been unable to capture or kill it as it comes and goes mysteriously.

“Now that we have this bundle of cobwebs, we can trace the Hundred-Eyed Spider’s location through its presence!” Huang Shanshan was also a bit worked up.

Xuanyuan Cheng looked toward the bundle of cobwebs laying on the table and questioned, “So, you’re saying that this Hundred-Eyed Spider is with the Demon King of Wisdom who suddenly appeared? Everything about his appearance seems strange. If it wasn’t for him, An Lin probably would never have seen this cobweb bundle. I personally feel that the Demon King wants to borrow our hands to kill this Hundred-Eyed Spider.”

“Or, this is a trap. Maybe he wants to lure us to the Hundred-Eyed Spider, then find a chance to kill us,” Xu Xiaolan added.

Thinking back to the Demon King of Wisdom’s exaggerated expressions, An Lin nodded in agreement. “This does seem a bit fishy. Our identities as immortal ambassadors haven’t been exposed. So, if the Demon King is indeed laying out a trap, then he’s probably targeting the cultivators of this country…”

The Demon King of Wisdom probably would never have thought that his acting skills would lead to so many suspicions.

Nobody was worthier to receive ‘The Golden Raspberry Award’ than him.

Thus, after some discussions, everyone reached a consensus.

Although there were dangers associated with capturing the Hundred-Eyed Spider, this was a rare chance which couldn’t be relinquished.

So, in order to guarantee their safety, they decided to ask for reinforcements!

Just like that, An Lin once again entered the ‘all cultivators of the world unite together to protect earth’ group chat.

Fake Daoist Priest Little An: “Hi seniors!”

Daoist Wooden Ox: “Haha, Daoist An, you haven’t surfaced in this chat for a long time!”

When he saw this, An Lin’s mouth twitched.

How long has it been? It’s only been two days!

Only people like Daoist Wooden Ox, who would feel uneasy if they didn’t go into the chat every day, would feel that this was a long time.

Enlightened Lazurite: “Is Daoist An here to ask something? Why don’t you tell us what the matter is?”

Heh, this was the kind of understanding person that An Lin liked. Talking with them was so easy!

Fake Daoist Priest Little An: “Haha. I do indeed need everyone’s help for something. This has got to do with the mission that I’m undertaking.”

Dreamy Voice Fairy: “What is it that you need help with, Daoist An?”

After Dreamy Voice Fairy’s message, a few other cultivators bobbed up in the chat.

Evidently, they were quite interested in what An Lin had to say next.

Seeing the reaction in the chat, An Lin breathed a small sigh of relief. It looks like the seniors in this chat are all quite passionate and warm-hearted.

Thereupon, he described in the chat their mission, that being the need to exterminate the Evil Spirit King, Hundred-Eyed Spider. He also detailed to them the things which had happened in Huang Xi Village.

As for the level of risk associated with this mission, he could only leave it to the cultivators of the chat to determine for themselves.

Fake Daoist Priest Little An: “That’s about all there is to it. I also can’t get you seniors to help for free, so any seniors who help me in this mission will receive spirit stones as compensation.”

An Lin had learned from Tian Lingling that spirit stones were an extremely valuable currency in the cultivation world on Earth.

Even to some elders who had a high cultivation base, spirit stones were very enticing.

He was the team leader of this mission after all, so he was understanding of the fact that he needed to enlist help through his own ability.

Sure enough, at the mention of spirit stones, many more cultivators bobbed up in the chat and it instantly became very lively.

Golden Jade: “May I ask what rank cultivators Daoist An is after?”

Exterminating the Evil Spirit King wasn’t a mission that any cultivator could take part in, especially since there were many hidden dangers.

Fake Daoist Priest Little An: “I need ten cultivators of the Tenth Stage Dao Body and will take all Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators who are willing to come. As for the spirit stone compensation, I’m not too familiar, so why don’t you guys name a price.”

An Lin rubbed his storage ring anxiously. There are only thirty thousand spirit stones in here… That should be enough, right?

He had heard from Tian Lingling that there were only eight cultivators of the Spirit Nurturing Stage in this group chat.

They were all leaders or elders of the various large-scale immortal sects and were always extremely busy.

It was due to this fact that An Lin dared to say he would accept all the Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators who were willing to sign up.

Compared to An Lin’s nervousness, Xuanyuan Cheng and Xu Xiaolan were relaxed as they snacked on seeds while waiting for updates…

He suddenly felt a bit regretful. Sigh, being the team leader is so hard…

If I knew this earlier, then I wouldn’t have become the team leader to flex. That way, I could’ve had the two next to me also chip in on the compensation.

Seeing that An Lin had asked them to name their own price, the chat became even more lively.

Crack Shot Clairvoyant: “Daoist An, my cultivation base is that of the Tenth Stage Dao Body. Fifty spirit stones and I’m in!”

An Lin was a bit dazed upon seeing this message.

It’s that cheap to recruit a cultivator of the Tenth Stage Dao Body?

Fifty spirit stones? Mates rates?

Right at this moment, Enlightened Lazurite sent a message: “No way!”

As expected, someone opposed it , An Lin thought to himself.

Such a cheap price will leave other cultivators feeling dissatisfied, how will others quote their prices like this?

Enlightened Lazurite followed up his message: “Clairvoyant, are you trying to cheat Daoist An?! The compensation for the Tenth Stage Dao Body can only be twenty spirit stones, no more!”

Atomic Bomb Fairy: “Exactly right. Clairvoyant, you’ve gone crazy thinking about spirit stones!”

Dreamy Voice Fairy: “Fifty spirit stones, why don’t you rob a bank? Have you considered Daoist An’s feelings?”

An Lin was dumbfounded.

What the f*ck! Have you considered my feelings? I feel very happy!

Crack Shot Clairvoyant: “Sorry Daoist An, I demanded too much. Twenty spirit stones are enough, count me in!”

An Lin really wanted to tell him that he didn’t need to apologize…

Right at this moment, a message was sent by The Savior, an individual who hadn’t spoken in this chat for a long time. “Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator here. I only need one hundred spirit stones. I’ll go along with Little An and borrow this chance to test out a new weapon that I stole…”

An Lin’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Holy f*ck! I can recruit a Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator with just one hundred spirit stones?!

Green River Sword Immortal: “One hundred spirit stones and count me in!”

An Lin: “…”

…

Just like that, An Lin—who had initially thought that he would need to fork out a fortune—only spent five hundred spirit stones. With this, he was able to recruit three cultivators of the Spirit Nurturing Stage and ten cultivators of the Tenth Stage Dao Body…

He looked toward the sky, his feelings complicated.

What’s with this world?

Am I too rich, or are the cultivators of this world too poor?
