My Immortal Master Forced Me to Go Undercover in the Demonic Sect – Chapter 292

Chapter 292: Chapter Seventy-Two Pleasant to the Ear
Ye Changsheng found Tang Yi.
“Master, I plan to go down the mountain for a few days.”
“Go down the mountain? What for?” Tang Yi frowned.
He had been swamped with trouble regarding the sect’s current affairs, and his attempts to seek cooperation with other sects in the Western Regions had been repeatedly rejected. He was at his wit’s end.
“Red dust trial,” Ye Changsheng replied.
“You… sigh, Changsheng, if only you could be a bit more like your junior sister, Mu Yu, and be more diligent.”
Tang Yi sighed.
“Look at you, with your Heavenly Spirit Root talent, you’re so outstanding. Last time your cultivation regressed at Panyin Mountain, while it can’t be entirely blamed on you, you still need to put in more effort. Look at Mu Yu, how long has she been in the sect? Her diligence and effort already surpass most people, and she’s already entered the second level of the Qi Refining Realm…”
“I’m at the second level of the Qi Refining Realm too,” Ye Changsheng retorted.
“…Alright.”
Tang Yi was speechless.
“You can go, but don’t be gone too long, otherwise, I’ll be ‘angry’ when you return.”
The word “angry” was emphasized by the plump man, hinting at something else.
“Alright, I understand,” Ye Changsheng nodded.
It was probably that he just needed to bring back some gifts. But if it was just once or twice, it would be fine. But to always ask for them, Ye Changsheng was a bit bothered.
So this time, he planned to get Tang Yi some “good stuff.”
…
Ye Changsheng set off from the White Emperor Sword Sect.
This time, he naturally had to find Luo Lin’er. Thinking about it, he hadn’t seen Luo Lin’er in a long time.
Luo Lin’er was well-informed. Regarding the starfall incident, she must know quite a bit of insider information. Therefore, he could get some intelligence from her.
However…
Sigh, if possible, Ye Changsheng really didn’t want to find Luo Lin’er.
That woman was too troublesome; she loved to tease him and cause him trouble.
She was a perfect fit for the description of a calamity.
Ye Changsheng left White Emperor Mountain and, after much effort, arrived at Qingping City. In the past six months, it hadn’t changed much; it was still bustling with activity, a gathering place for rogue cultivators.
Ye Changsheng wore the sword robe of an Inner Disciple of the White Emperor Sword Sect. As he walked on the road, many people voluntarily made way for him, as if a prince were strolling through the street.
This made Ye Changsheng feel a sense of the dramatic. If he encountered someone who resembled a protagonist, and accidentally bumped into them, cursed them a few words, insulted the White Emperor Sword Sect, and then the two sides would begin fighting, it would feel just right.
The Phoenix Immortal Tower was just as lively at night, with bright lights and drunken revelry. Even before entering, one could hear singing and dancing.
“Meow meow meow!!”
A little black cat, lazily yawning by the entrance, spotted Ye Changsheng and jumped up happily, hopping its way to him.
“Long time no see, Sesame. Did you miss me?”
“Meow meow~”
Sesame circled Ye Changsheng a few times, rubbing against his pant leg while meowing joyfully, as if calling out Ye Changsheng’s name.
Ye Changsheng picked up Sesame and noticed the little cat had gained quite a bit of weight. Compared to its skinny state when they first met, it was now quite plump.
It seemed Liu Liu was indeed taking good care of it.
“Look at you, is the food at Phoenix Immortal Tower too good? Why are you eating so much, you’ll turn into a little black pig!”
“Meow! Meow!” Sesame, not understanding human speech, licked Ye Changsheng’s finger.
This time, it didn’t detect any strange aura.
After all, before setting out, Ye Changsheng had deliberately scrubbed away any lingering scent of the little fox from himself.
“Eat less from now on,” Ye Changsheng rubbed Sesame’s chin and walked into Phoenix Immortal Tower with the cat.
Phoenix Immortal Tower was crowded. Beautiful women were entertaining the guests, who were indulging in lavish pleasures, creating a haven of tenderness unavailable in the outside world.
The women, upon seeing Ye Changsheng’s White Emperor Sword Sect sword robe, were surprised and quickly greeted him respectfully.
“Young Master, are you here alone today?”
“I’m looking for someone,” Ye Changsheng said.
“Meow~!” Sesame meowed.
The woman gasped, recognizing Ye Changsheng.
“Aren’t you… Young Master Ye!”
Ye Changsheng paid attention and realized this was Xin Xin, a woman he had met and helped at Phoenix Immortal Tower before.
It was she and Liu Liu who had been bullied by a guest at the time, and Ye Changsheng had intervened.
“Young Master Ye, you actually became a cultivator of the White Emperor Sword Sect, that’s amazing… Ah, what am I saying, you are already an immortal master.” Xin Xin chuckled sheepishly.
She was a mortal and knew the vast difference between immortals and mortals, and the great disparity in their status.
“It’s fine, Miss Xin Xin, it doesn’t matter how you address me.”
“Then can I still call you Young Master Ye?”
“Of course.”
“That’s great, Young Master Ye,” Xin Xin gave Ye Changsheng a beautiful smile, “Young Master Ye, who are you looking for today?”
“Is the Boss Lady here today?”
“Young Master Ye, please wait. I’ll excuse myself for a moment and report to the other sisters.” Xin Xin left.
Ye Changsheng stroked Sesame’s back. He stood alone, while the cultivators nearby were secretly discussing him.
After all, disciples from major sects rarely visited Phoenix Immortal Tower, which inevitably led to speculation.
Ye Changsheng paid no mind to their gazes. Instead, he noticed the red curtain on the stage in the center of Phoenix Immortal Tower being opened, and a girl in a grand outfit holding a zither walked up.
It was Liu Liu.
Liu Liu bowed slightly to the crowd, sat down, and began to perform.
The girl’s singing was exceptional, no longer as raw as before, her melody precise and beautiful as a oriote’s song, no less than that of imperial musicians in the court.
She was playing the tune Ye Changsheng had taught her. The audience had never heard anything like it. It was like a clear spring flowing through the heart, like heavenly cranes flying over ethereal peaks, inspiring awe and intoxication in the world painted by Liu Liu’s melodious music.
“What a wonderful girl, her talent is truly astonishing. Who would have thought she would rise so quickly to the top of the ‘Red Flower Ranking’ among the guests?”
“It’s a pity, though. Miss Liu Liu only performs; I heard the second young master of the Grand Chu Kingdom’s Ministry of Personnel threw thousands of gold pieces wanting an hour with Liu Liu, but he was rejected.”
“This… did the Ministry of Personnel not cause trouble for Phoenix Immortal Tower?”
“They did, they even brought people to cause a scene. But nothing happened to Phoenix Immortal Tower. The next day, that second young master was beaten into a fool.”
“Rumor has it that Phoenix Immortal Tower has the backing of cultivators, and secular powers can’t afford to offend them…”
“Even so, the more aloof and beautiful a girl is, the more it ignites a man’s desire to conquer her!”
Listening to the discussions of those around him, Ye Changsheng rolled his eyes. Liu Liu wasn’t aloof, she was just introverted and timid.
Besides, those people were truly fearless, daring to cause trouble in the territory of the Supreme Elder of the Demonic Path’s major sect, Wuhua Palace. It was already merciful that their entire families weren’t reduced to ashes.
“Young Master Ye, the Boss Lady requests your presence!”
Xin Xin approached and whispered in Ye Changsheng’s ear.
Ye Changsheng glanced at Liu Liu, intending to find her later.
“Alright, please lead me there for now.”
Xin Xin led Ye Changsheng to a room door and then withdrew.
Ye Changsheng walked in, and it was pitch black inside.
As he was wondering,

his eyes were suddenly covered.
“Guess who I am, Changsheng~?” A familiar voice whispered in Ye Changsheng’s ear, “I missed you so much.”
Ye Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat. Why would it be Luo Yingying who came?
