Primordial Cultivator

A day passed by without anything special except for the fact that everyone else held an envious look at Yang Wei on the amount of attention he got from Elder Jing.

"Damn it, why can't I be like Yang Wei?" A disciple cursed loudly as he wondered what kind of bad luck he has to not be able to be like Yang Wei.

"Maybe because you're not as handsome as him. Take a look in the mirror and ask yourself, which girl would want to be with you?" Another disciple laughed as he sneered at him.

"Hmph, you're not any better than me, Huo Xiaojian."

"Tch, at least I'm more handsome than you, Yan Deming," Huo Xiaojian fires back instantly.

While the disciples continued to argue about their bad luck being unable to become like Yang Wei and his luck with girls, Elder Jing was calmly inspecting Yang Wei's training and the Pagoda situation.

"Hmm, the demons are still staying around the Pagoda… are they waiting for something?" Elder Jing mumbled softly when she sensed them not moving anywhere else.

Normally, demons are creatures that have no intelligence in their mind and only have hunger which is why they always look for prey to quench their thirst.

However, the demons seemed to be abnormal as they aren't acting irrationally at all.

"What are you thinking about Elder Jing?" Yang Wei's voice suddenly echoed into Elder Jing's ear, causing her to snap out of her daze.

"Hmm, nothing much… Have you finished punching already?" Elder Jing turned around and asked him.

"Un, my progress has become faster each day so it was relatively easy to complete the training," Yang Wei nodded.

Elder Jing checked the sandbag to see the punching impact and when she confirmed the hit seemed to be from the same strength, she nodded her head.

"Good, since you finished practicing, I believe it's time for us to continue to retreat further. I would rather be safe than sorry." Elder Jing then said as she walked toward the center.

Afterward, she shouted with her true qi enhanced for all the disciples to be able to hear her voice for gathering in the open.

Sometime later, all the disciples stood in a straight line with a solemn expression.

They weren't dumb enough to think the gathering is going to be some empty talk given their situation at the moment.

Elder Jing cleared her throat when the disciples all stood still as she said, "I know that everyone must be feeling tense… given the situation regarding the demon's outbreak. However, I can tell you that we are still safe and far away from the demons at the moment."

The disciples breathed a sigh of relief when Elder Jing's announcement wasn't about them having to fight the demons.

After all, demons have impenetrable bodies and ridiculous regenerative abilities. They would need specific techniques that target demons in order to successfully kill one otherwise, it would take forever for them to even damage one demon.

When Elder Jing saw the disciples relaxing, she gave an evil smirk as she shouted, "Alright, now everyone starts packing things up as we shall leave now."

The disciples were dumbfounded on why they needed to move after hearing Elder Jing's words.

'Didn't Elder Jing just say that we were safe?' The disciples all exclaimed inwardly as they were confused.

"You only have 3 minutes to pack up otherwise, you can stay here if you want." Elder Jing shrugged her shoulders as she went back to her own tent.

Yang Wei didn't ask any questions and simply followed Elder Jing's words since he knew what's on her mind.

'Elder Jing is really hard working...' Yang Wei sighed inwardly at the amount of workload Elder Jing had to do.

First, she must help him in his training, which spent most of the time since she'll need to watch every move of him to make sure he doesn't make a mistake.

Then, she must pay attention to the situation with demons and make sure they aren't chasing after them.

Yang Wei could only feel helpless and hated himself for not being able to share Elder Jing's burden.

Sometime later, the disciples all packed up their stuff and waited for Elder Jing's order.

"Seems like none of you were willing to stay in this mountain," Elder Jing chuckled softly as she continued, "This time, we will be advancing further away from the demons and while doing so, make sure to have your spiritual sense active to check if there are other sects somewhere."

Elder Jing has been confused about where the other sects could possibly be since there aren't any corpses in the Pagoda which means they should have escaped or are still stuck somewhere.

Hence, she wanted the disciples to check the surroundings as well since she could miss something due to the distraction and attention she must focus on.

Although the disciples didn't know why they all nodded their heads in unison.

"Good, now let's begin," Elder Jing shouted as she headed off.

Yang Wei, Elder Pao Huang, Lian Xinyue, and the other disciples quickly followed behind with their spiritual sense surrounding the area completely.

While traveling, Elder Jing and the rest encountered numerous magical beasts but they were quickly killed off with Elder Jing and Elder Pao Huang's swift techniques.

The magical beasts didn't post much danger to the disciples except for the fact that it delayed some of their time.

"Alright, we will camp in this cave for now and I will block off the entrance completely." Elder Jing said when they arrived in a hidden cave.

The disciples nodded and followed behind Elder Pao Huang to clear the hidden cave in case some magical beasts were lurking nearby.

Yang Wei stayed behind with Elder Jing as he asked in concern when no one was present anymore except them.

"Jing Feng, did you even rest these days?"

"Not much but it doesn't matter since there are more important tasks I must do." Elder Jing shook her head as she started blocking the entrance until a loud screeching sound echoed from afar.

'Not good,' Elder Jing cursed inwardly as she hurriedly used her spiritual sense to detect the area.
