Daily life of a cultivation judge



Meng Bai on seeing his master's actions and the words he had said made him realize the gravity of his actions and what implications it may have had, had things gone very wrong.

Following his master's actions, he also followed suite and gave a deeper bow as an apology.

"On behalf of the Mountain Guarding Array Manor, I would like to offer our sincerest apologies for our neglect that put you at enormous risk.

We are willing to refund you the 670 high-grade spirit stones and raise it to 10,000 high-grade spirit stones as an apology.

In addition, I promise to personally help you lay down three low-tier blue-grade formations of your choosing and provide the core material for one of them.

I would have liked to provide for all, but I have a lot of people to pay and it would put the Manor in a difficult spot. But, if in 10 years you will not have found the core materials, I will provide the materials myself

I sincerely hope this is enough.." said Su Ye.

Everyone in the courtroom was shocked at the statement of Su Ye, especially Tang Qi. He was wide-eyed and in disbelief at what he had just heard.

His asking for the 670 high-grade spirit stones was him just venting for the beating he got. He wasn't expecting anything in return, especially after the ruckus he had caused at their headquarters. 

When the owner let him leave with his life, he already considered them even. It was just that he couldn't let go of the humiliation he had suffered and had a belly full of petty vengeance, so when Yu Gen came to inform him of the case, he decided to drag the Mountain Guarding Array Manor in and cause problems for them.

It was his way of getting back at them, but now that he had time to cool off, he felt he was rather silly.

"Manor master Su Ye, there is no need for this. I can't accept the payment. I already owe you for sparing my life after what I did.." Tang Qi hurriedly said.

"No, we failed in our duties as such, this is the bare minimum we should do.." Su Ye firmly said.

"You should accept senior Tang Qi. You doing so gives face to Senior Su Ye and eases his conscience.

As a palace realm cultivator, I'm sure you have realized the mental state affects a great deal in our realm.." Yang Qing said when he saw Tang Qi was about to refuse Su Ye.

Tang Qi's pupils suddenly constricted and then hurriedly cupped his fists to Yang Qing in gratitude.

"Thank you, Judge Yang Qing.." 

"I accept your offer fellow Daoist Su Ye, but on the materials kindly let me source them myself. It's the least I should do also.." said Tang Qi.

"Okay.." answered Su Ye when he saw the firmness in Tang Qi's eyes.

"By the way do you do arrays that help in herb farming?" Tang Qi suddenly asked.I think you should take a look at

"We don't but if it's what you want, I would be willing to give it a try.." 

"No, No, I was just curious.."

"If you want agricultural-based arrays, I could have someone from the Summerfield kingdom assist Senior Su Ye on the matter.

While he may not be a blue-grade formation master yet, his talents in the area are worthy of recognition even by our standards.

I'm sure he would be happy to help, in exchange for help from two palace realm masters.." Yang Qing suddenly said to the two.

The Summerfield Kingdom was the best when it came to combining formation arrays and spiritual herb growth. While Mountain Guarding Array Manor were experienced in arrays that provided protection which happened to be what Summerfield Kingdom needed at the moment, especially with a member of the Dark Helminth Ghost sect already showing up within their territory, the services of the Mountain Guarding Array Manor would be highly welcomed by them, along with registering good karma with two palace realm experts.

Su Ye and Tang Qi were both seasoned foxes, so they didn't miss reading between the lines of Yang Qing's statement. They gladly agreed with his suggestion as it was no loss for them.

"Now then, we are only left with the Silver Blade Sect. Sect master Shao Rong would you please?" Yang Qing said.

Sect Master Shao Rong gulped like he was preparing himself for an execution. While they didn't mean it, they were the main perpetrators in this.

"Master let me, we were the ones who caused it all," pleadingly said the black-haired lady with a pretty oval face who among the young group had formed saber qi and was at the peak stage of the foundation establishment.

"Thanks for the concern Fan'er but let your master do this, and despite everything that happened, the sect doesn't blame you. We were the ones who made things reach this far with our own stubbornness. 

The other elders think so too.." Sect master Shao Rong said as he gently smiled to placate the worrying black-haired lady.

"Sorry about that, Judge Yang Qing. The Silver Blade Sect accepts its fault in this matter. About sixteen years ago, my disciple along with the core disciple of our sect were out during a mission when they stumbled onto Senior Tang Qi's abode.

To them at the time, they thought it was a ruin, and thus decided to try their luck and explore it to see if they could find anything in there.

As young cultivators, we have all experienced that hot-blooded thrill of an adventure and exploring different places.."

As he made this statement, Tang Qi, Su Ye, and Meng Bai all nodded in agreement. Only Yang Qing was there with a deadpan expression wondering,

Just how old do they think I am? And what's with the nostalgic looks of missing something dangerous like ruin exploration?

Even if the Order paid me, I wouldn't go explore one.....well if they gave me more time off and more pay, then ....no, no, no, I  Yang Qing have a bottom line!! But...
