The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 163. Green Enthusiast Yu Qing
Chapter 163: 163. Green Enthusiast Yu Qing
"Wow!"
Lan Shao looked at the cloud sea and exclaimed in amazement. The cloud sea at night was not completely dark; the moonlight seemed to drape a beautiful silver veil over the sea of clouds.
In the sky, apart from the bright moon, there were countless twinkling stars.
Lan Shao gazed up at the sky, the starry dome reflecting the shimmering starlight in her big eyes.
"Look, there’s a meteor!"
Lan Shao excitedly pointed at the night sky, shouting to Fang Zhou.
She had never been to such heights, nor seen such a beautiful night scene; previously, she could only stay inside Lanruo Temple, and her sisters couldn’t fly.
Excited, Lan Shao even forgot her fear of Fang Zhou and reverted to her lively and active nature, attempting to climb onto Fang Zhou’s head.
Fang Zhou slapped her buttocks twice, making her come down obediently.
"Make us invisible, I’ll let you gaze as long as you want when we return!"
"Oh!"
Lan Shao made Fang Zhou and the Xuanyuan Sword beneath his feet invisible.
Flying out of the cloud sea, the Yujian Peak was already within reach.
Fang Zhou flew straight to the top of Yujian Peak, arriving at the construction site he had seen before.
According to Fang Zhou’s understanding, the project at Yujian Peak had been contracted by the Cloud Sea Gang, but due to a lack of manpower, they needed more artisans to join. However, the Cloud Sea Gang clearly intended to monopolize the benefits.
The construction site at night was piled with various building materials, and the artisans had gone down to rest; the entire site was empty.
Though the Cloud Sea Gang liked to cut corners, they dared not do so with the Heavenly Sword Sect’s project; being discovered would mean certain death, so the materials at this site were top-notch.
The Heavenly Sword Sect would never suspect anyone targeting these materials; whoever could infiltrate the sect would likely steal magic treasures or techniques rather than construction materials—such a plan seemed idiotic.
Thus, the site had no guards, allowing even ordinary people to come and go freely; not to mention Fang Zhou’s invisibility, it was as if he was undetected.
He took a gourd and absorbed most of the top-quality materials on the site into it, then replaced them with the inferior ones the Cloud Sea Gang had delivered today.
After finishing this, Fang Zhou left Yujian Peak, heading to Xuanjian Peak and Lei Jian Peak.
These two places he had never been before, but the construction sites were quite obvious, making them easy to find.
After replacing all the materials, Fang Zhou left sneakily.
He wasn’t worried about the artisans discovering the inferior materials, as they were from the Cloud Sea Gang and would likely assume it was another instance of the gang’s tradition of cutting corners, not reporting themselves.
On the way back, Fang Zhou finally fulfilled his promise, flying around the cloud sea to let Lan Shao see to her heart’s content, then returning to Moon Viewing Peak.
Next, he only needed to wait for the project to be completed or for the celebration to start; then, the entire Heavenly Sword Sect would surely receive a tremendous surprise.
After returning Lan Shao to the gourd, Fang Zhou took out the Treasure Atlas, planning to stay up all night to read it.
...
Two calm days passed, with Lu Qiuling visiting almost daily, asking Fang Zhou when the new project could begin. She was already eager and restless.
Fang Zhou had told Lu Qiuling about the impending change of Wangyue Daily to Heavenly Sword Daily and assured her that a new project was in the works; otherwise, this number one employee would go on strike.
On the third day, Yu Qing came to Moon Viewing Peak again, bringing good news.
True Master Yu Jian had finally agreed to Fang Zhou’s proposal to exchange Wangyue Daily for a genuine deed to Moon Viewing Peak, completely resolving the conflict.
As long as the Heavenly Sword Sect existed, Moon Viewing Peak would forever belong to Fang Zhou, legitimately and indisputably.
Fang Zhou knew the sect would hold onto the media tool and wouldn’t abandon Wangyue Daily; he hadn’t anticipated their boldness in giving him Moon Viewing Peak.
Yu Qing also finally learned the specifics of Fang Zhou’s conversation with the Master on that day.
She quietly shared insider information with Fang Zhou, stating that the proposal had initially faced significant opposition from many high-ranking members of the sect.
Ultimately, Sect Master made the final decision, agreeing to resolve the two-year-long conflict between the Heavenly Sword Sect and Ling Xiaoyue.
Yu Qing came to inform Fang Zhou of the decision and handed over the deed to Moon Viewing Peak.
Fang Zhou took the deed from Yu Qing, his hands trembling with excitement.
After two lifetimes, he finally possessed his own land, an arduous journey despite Moon Viewing Peak’s barren state and lack of industry. Fang Zhou was confident he could make it a world-renowned holy land in the Cultivation World. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
For example, a cultural holy land, a technological holy land, an entertainment holy land, with thousands of cultivators coming daily to worship.
With the deed in hand, the conflict between the Heavenly Sword Sect and Ling Xiaoyue was officially over.
However, the conflict between Fang Zhou and Ling Xiaoyue was likely just beginning—since the deed bore Fang Zhou’s name.
This wasn’t a deliberate provocation by the sect but was at Fang Zhou’s request; he would never entrust such an important place to Ling Xiaoyue. Otherwise, if she decided to sell Moon Viewing Peak on a whim, everything would be ruined.
Thus, Fang Zhou insisted the deed bear his name, undeterred by Ling Xiaoyue’s potential anger.
At worst, he would fight her to the death.
After carefully storing the deed, Fang Zhou smiled at Yu Qing, saying, "Wangyue Daily can officially be renamed Heavenly Sword Daily now. Who do you plan to put in charge?"
Yu Qing smiled, "Taoist Fang, you know this person too; can you guess?"
Fang Zhou pondered, "Could it be Wei Yuanling?"
Yu Qing showed a look of surprise, "Taoist Fang guessed correctly; it’s Wei Yuanling. She will be responsible for all newspaper affairs."
Indeed, that remarkably thorough woman—since she handled the sect’s paper and ink printing, she was naturally the best fit to manage the newspaper.
Fang Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Yu Qing, I’ve read the manuscript you gave me."
Yu Qing looked thrilled and somewhat nervous, asking expectantly, "Taoist Fang, how do you evaluate it? Please let me know any shortcomings, and I will certainly revise them."
Fang Zhou felt conflicted. He had only read Yu Qing’s submission while reviewing the Treasure Atlas over the past two days.
In a nutshell, Yu Qing wrote exceptionally well, far beyond a beginner’s level. Her beautiful and outstanding prose, well-rounded characters, and gripping plot captivated Fang Zhou.
He was utterly immersed, reminiscent of his previous life when he would read novels all night.
Yu Qing could be considered a born author, potentially becoming a great writer, but she had one fatal flaw that Fang Zhou couldn’t overlook.
This girl was a thorough literary enthusiast, and her novel contained an intolerable theme for Fang Zhou—infidelity.
Moreover, it was the type akin to the husband’s current offense.
This was a common trait among many literary enthusiasts; they lacked life experience but loved to mock reality, imposing life’s hardships on their characters.
In the eyes of these literati, infidelity seemed to be the only hardship worth depicting in reality.
Yu Qing was such a green enthusiast who lacked experience.
