Upon hearing that Bu Yu Taoist was locked up in jail, Lu Yang blurted out, “Master is in jail again?”

Wait, why did I say “again”?

Yun Zhi sighed deeply and nodded, “I hate to admit it, but it’s true.”

“Even though I’ve told Master several times, ‘If you get into trouble in the future, just don’t mention your disciple.’”

“But after all, we are master and disciple. Even if Master embarrasses himself outside, we should still call him ‘Master’ when we meet him outside. We can’t pretend not to know him.”

“…So the key point just now was the word ‘Master’, not why he was in jail?”

“Master wrote a letter, hoping to send someone to get him out of jail. According to past practice, it’s usually the Fourth Elder who goes to bail him out. This time, since Master is in Dayan County, we can visit him after dealing with the Immortal Relics. We can see why he was locked up this time.”

“Does Master often go to jail?”

“Not often, but he spends more time in jail than most jailers.”

“…”

“Because of Master’s unique experiences, he believes that one should leave something behind in life. So he wrote a book based on his own experiences, which received support from the court.”

Lu Yang was curious, “What did Master write?”

“Two Thousand Years of Prison Environment Changes in the Great Xia Dynasty.”

Yun Zhi casually listed a few examples, “I heard that during the Nine Sons era of the Seek Tao Sect, the most common thing Master did was drunk flying on his sword, which constituted dangerous driving. He was locked up in jail for several months each time.”

Yun Zhi further explained the current legal situation in the Great Xia Dynasty to Lu Yang, “This is actually the most common criminal law that cultivators violate. It’s not just flying on a sword, but also driving gourds, jade flutes, etc. Many cultivators don’t want to use their magic power to sober up after drinking, and they fly in the sky while drunk. The Great Xia Dynasty has repeatedly banned this.”

“Master also once pretended to be a fortune teller. He solemnly told his clients that they would be cheated out of their money today. If they wanted to avoid being cheated, they had to pay for disaster relief. The clients believed Master’s words, paid him spirit stones for disaster relief, and Master accepted the spirit stones, saying, ‘See, I told you that you would be cheated today, wasn’t my prediction accurate?’”

“Then he was locked up.”

Bu Yu Taoist had done too many things, and Yun Zhi couldn’t finish talking about them all at once, so she just randomly picked a few examples to show Lu Yang.

“I don’t know if you’ve heard that Master once created a spell called ‘Big and Small Wishes (Local Version)’. It’s easy to learn.”

Lu Yang nodded. It was that wonderful spell where men could change their lower parts and women could change their upper parts. He had heard of it and even wanted to learn it, but he never had the chance.

“Originally, the court wanted to charge Master with the crime of producing, copying, publishing, selling, and spreading obscene materials for profit. The Fourth Elder stood up and argued that Master’s spell was a health-preserving spell with no hidden meanings. In the end, the court backed down and did not charge Master with a crime, but they asked Master not to spread this spell anymore and to pay the tax for selling the book.”

“Fourth Elder is so righteous!” Lu Yang didn’t expect that the Fourth Elder, who usually didn’t like Master, would stand up for him at a critical time and save Master from jail.

Yun Zhi glanced at Lu Yang and said lightly, “That’s because the Fourth Elder was also involved in the sale. If Master was charged with a crime, he wouldn’t be able to escape either.”

“Or to put it another way, if Master was charged with a crime, all the Nine Sons of the Seek Tao Sect would be wiped out and they would all go to jail together.”

“Anyway, that was the time when Master made the most money. He was so rich that he didn’t consider spirit stones as spirit stones.”

“Master once imitated the Supreme Elder and went to a brothel. At that time, Master was dressed in gold and silver, looking like a nouveau riche. The madam was overjoyed, thinking that he was a big customer. But then Master asked the brothel to issue an invoice, and the madam’s face sank. She thought Master was here to make trouble and refused to issue an invoice.”

“Master believed that the brothel’s behavior was tax evasion, so he went to the government to sue the brothel. In the end, the government found the brothel guilty of tax evasion and locked up the madam. They also found Master guilty of visiting a brothel and locked him up too.”

“After the era of the Nine Sons of the Seek Tao Sect ended and the Supreme Elder retired, the nine of them, including Master, took over the power of the Seek Tao Sect. But Master didn’t settle down.”

“You should know that the First Elder loves to build tombs. Master accompanied the First Elder on his trips to build tombs everywhere. While digging a hole for a tomb, they accidentally dug up a real tomb. They were reported as grave robbers to the government. When the government sent people to arrest them, they thought they were zombies and almost fought.”

The Immortal Fairy in the spiritual space was amazed. The Seek Tao Sect really had many talented people. Staying in Lu Yang’s spiritual space was indeed enlightening.

Lu Yang: “…”

Lu Yang felt that with the Immortal Fairy in front of him and Bu Yu Taoist behind him, he was able to stick to his principles and do things honestly and sincerely under their influence. It was not easy.

“Isn’t Master at the Body Fusion stage? How was he caught?”

As the Sect Leader of the Seek Tao Sect, he was at the top of the Body Fusion stage, and he might even be the strongest Body Fusion cultivator. Even if all the people in Dayan County were piled up, they would not be Bu Yu Taoist’s opponents.

How could he be caught?

“Master said that jail is part of the cultivation of the mortal world.”

“Does escaping from jail count as part of the cultivation of the mortal world?”

Yun Zhi was silent for a long time, and then she looked deeply at Lu Yang, “Don’t ask Master this question. I’m afraid he’ll think of it.”

Lu Yang scratched his head and said, “Oh, I have another question.”

“What is it?”

“Shouldn’t we be visiting the prison? Why are we eating now?”

At this moment, Lu Yang and Yun Zhi were sitting in a small private room, with a variety of delicious dishes in front of them.Upon returning from the Immortal Ruins, Yun Zhi didn’t head straight to the prison. Instead, she took Lu Yang to the best restaurant in Dayan County, ordering all the local specialties. Lu Yang’s eyes twitched as he watched.

He wanted to ask, with our master locked up not far away, isn’t it a bit inappropriate for us to be feasting here?

However, considering that the person sitting across from him was the senior sister, he ultimately didn’t dare to ask.

Yun Zhi took a bite of the steamed beef balls. The beef balls were firm and juicy, and she was very satisfied.

Yun Zhi put down her chopsticks and explained with a poker face, “Junior brother, you need to understand, our master is our elder. What elders want most is to see their juniors healthy and growing robustly. If we eat well and sleep well here, I’m sure our master would be overjoyed in his prison cell when he hears about our situation.”

Lu Yang felt that what his senior sister said made sense, but something still felt off.

Has his brain been malfunctioning lately? Is it a side effect of boxing with Huang Doudou?
