This chapter is by Lianyin of BC Novels.

The quest to find Mei Yin Valley could only be scheduled after the righteous path had sent out the messages that they had accepted the Yun Cuo’s commoners.

Chu Yu was incapable of dealing with this matter on his own, so he discussed it with Chu Sheng. Chu Sheng naturally took charge of it and indicated that he would personally deal with the various clans involved.

Although they had reached Jin He, Chu Yu could not join in the fun with the rest of the cultivator squad as Chu Sheng was there to watch him like a hawk. In any case, he had dismissed this idea when he imagined the carnage on the battlefield. If he just chickened out at the sight of those brutal and horrifying scenes, Xie Xi and the others would immediately extract themselves from the situation just to protect him. If that happened, he would have caused them trouble for nothing.

Chu Yu was also overwrought over the upcoming battle of life-and-death.

Initially, he was trying to cultivate peacefully in the Chu encampment, but he was interrupted every hour as a voice transmitting talisman would fly over. Chu Yu guessed where these talismans were all coming from and expressionlessly received them all to listen to them. Some were looking for him and Chu Sheng, but the majority were for Lu Qingan and Xie Xi.

Most of those messages for the Chu brothers were simply trying to sound them out, afraid that Chu Yu would take advantage of his proximity to Lu Qingan to pull him into the Chu clan. Their words were all somewhere along the lines of “your clan is already big enough, pulling Lu Qingan over as well is too underhanded.” Chu Yu bared his teeth when he heard it. He never originally had the intention to entice Lu Qingan over, but now he felt like using his connection to Lu Qingan to invite him to be a guest vassal of the Chu clan.

Messages for Lu Qingan were mostly a long list of various baits and lures. Knowing that Lu Qingan was frosty by nature and had always steered clear of women, the carrots were primarily rare and exotic treasures.

As for the one for Xie Xi…

Chu Yu’s expression was a little complicated after he listened to it.

Chu Yu told Chu Sheng and the others about the letters when they returned that night. All three of them were expressionless and simply gave a slight nod and an “oh” in response, then behaved as if they had never heard it. Lu Qingan dragged away Shen Nian, who had been harassing him from behind, to teach him a lesson, while Chu Sheng went to discuss matters with the Chu clan’s guest vassals. Before leaving, he did not forget to pull Chu Yu along. Listening to all those severe topics made Chu Yu drowsy. But just when they were finally done talking, Chu Sheng then dragged him to his room for some ‘education’.

After a few hours of sighing and showering Chu Yu with concern, Chu Sheng was finally satisfied and clapped his hands to let Chu Yu off. Chu Yu went back to his room with his head spinning. When he raised his head after entering his room and saw Xie Xi leaning against the side of the bed, his clouded eyes brightened. On seeing this, Xie Xi raised his eyebrows in puzzlement.

Chu Yu’s sleepiness immediately left him as he went over to pull Xie Xi to sit at the edge of the bed before joyfully telling him about the content of those voice transmitting talismans.

Xie Xi smiled and pulled Chu Yu into his arms for a hug. Suddenly, he heard Chu Yu change the topic.

“Does shidi know how those people tried to entice you over?”

Xie Xi was not interested in these kinds of things. But when he saw Chu Yu in high spirits, he played along and asked gently. “How?”

Chu Yu suppressed his smile. He was now in an impish mood. Not caring if he was acting OOC, he pinched his voice and imitated that coquettish voice from the voice transmitting talisman. He said, “I heard that Comrade Xie has yet to find a cultivation companion.1 There are many beautiful and charming female cultivators in my sect. If you are interested, you can come over for a look… If you are not interested in female cultivators, there are also many male cultivators in my sect whose looks are on a par with Comrade Xie’s shixiong… They are all free for the taking…”
