Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1426 - 623: Universal Kneeling (Part 2)

The overly excited Luu Baoguo bowed fervently, while He Yao Dao, standing in place, chuckled and said, "There’s no need for such excitement, my good man. Healing your asthma was merely a small favor. However, if you truly wish to thank me, it’s unnecessary to climb mountains of knives or plow seas of flames. Simply help recruit some boys and girls for me! After all, my dojo aims for a large scale, and it’s not merely limited to three thousand boys and girls. If they meet my standards and requirements for discipleship, it could be six thousand, or even nine thousand girls, and I could take them all as disciples!"

Kneeling on the ground, Luu Baoguo was clearly completely impressed by He Yao Dao’s methods. Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly and said, "I will certainly remember the Immortal Master’s words in my heart. When I return to Qingkou County this afternoon, I will immediately have my third uncle fully recruit boys and girls, the more the better, but at least in the thousands to show gratitude to the Immortal Master for his grand favor!"

Upon hearing this, He Yao Dao slightly nodded and, upon raising his head to look at the many dignitaries around, merely smiled without speaking. Yet, deep within his eyes, there was a hint of obscured corruption, as his gaze occasionally fell on the women in the hall.

And those dignitaries, shocked by the ’frightening speed’ and ’powerful Immortal Techniques’ displayed by He Yao Dao, were all having their eyes dart about constantly,

Soon, a dozen local tycoons and gentry bypassed the crowd and quickly approached He Yao Dao, each bowing deeply,

"Immortal Master above, I am Li Yunchang, the Deputy Director of the Inspection Bureau from Wushui County. Today, witnessing the Immortal Master’s techniques has been a great eye-opener, and I am deeply impressed by the Immortal Master’s Immortal Techniques! Concerning recruiting disciples and boys and girls for the Immortal Master, I will certainly do my utmost. Even if I can’t match the thousands recruited by Vice County Magistrate Yu and Brother Luu, I will recruit at least a thousand boys and girls, bringing them to Qingyuan City within ten days!"

"Supreme Immortal Master above, I am Zhao Xinglong from Maguo County, currently serving as the Deputy Captain of the Second Defense Battalion in Maguo County! Xinglong, now forty-two, has witnessed countless strange phenomena alongside my father but has never personally witnessed Immortal Techniques as extraordinary as those of the Immortal Master! I never imagined that the Immortals from fantastical tales truly existed in this world! Xinglong’s meeting the Immortal Master in this life is like a blessing accrued over generations! Upon returning to Maguo County, I will also pledge to recruit disciples and boys and girls for the Immortal Master, at the very least two thousand within ten days!"

"Supreme Immortal Master above..."

These more than a dozen dignitaries stepping up were precisely the figures of authority from several surrounding counties, compared to whom other officials and nobles at the scene held neither comparable power nor status, no lesser than even the host of today’s birthday feast, Wei Hong!

However, these so-called bigwigs, reigning over their respective counties, were left in a state of shock after witnessing the methods deliberately showcased by this Yao Dao. Their hearts were burning with excitement, eager to recruit the so-called boys and girls for this Yao Dao. After all, though hailed as big shots within their domains, they were still ordinary people, and in times of illness, whom among their families does not desire, like Luu Baoguo, to have someone like Master He provide healing!

Little did these people know that the insidiousness of this so-called Supreme Immortal Master, He Zhenren, lay hidden right in front of them,

Treating Luu Baoguo’s decades-old ailment publicly was a deliberate act by this Yao Dao to shock the dignitaries present into serving him! As to whether he would actually treat their ailments later... this He Yao Dao, unlike Lin Xuankong, in this Absolute Spirit Mini World, sought to cultivate True Qi through Demonic Techniques by harming women. Healing just one dignitary could cost countless lives in exchange for a wisp of True Qi from a Demonic Technique!

At this moment,

The dignitaries with real power all stepped forward, bowing and promising to help this so-called Supreme Immortal Master He Yao Dao in recruiting a large number of boys and girls. While those local gentry and minor nobility, watching on, were inwardly itching with envy!

Amidst the crowd,

Almost ninety-nine percent of them, observing this scene, found their hearts swaying, gazing at He Yao Dao with faces full of reverence, as if they were staring at an Immortal.

Standing behind Wei Hong, Ding Ye’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter. Despite his rough outward appearance, he was, in fact, quite meticulous... After all, Ding Ye, having trained a Defense Battalion of thousands into a formidable force, prominent in Jee Province, was certainly no ordinary individual!

Therefore, this moment, gazing upon the consistently jovial Elder He, Ding Ye sensed that something was off. However, given Wei Hong’s prior warning and the imposing Ninth Young Master Huang standing nearby, even if Ding Ye suspected He Zhenren, he felt powerless! After all, his Defense Battalion of thousands meant nothing against the Huang Family, much like ants facing an elephant!

Time passed for several cups of tea,

Before calm gradually returned to the hall on the second floor.

Those who had rushed forward to swear allegiance to this so-called Supreme Immortal Master He Zhenren, contentedly returned to their seats, while the Yao Dao He Zhenren scanned the hall, finally locking his gaze on the table with the female guests, fixing it upon the Third Miss Miao Wan’er of the Miao Family.

At this moment, He Zhenren maintained a kindly smiling facade, but upon discerning Miao Wan’er’s features, figure, and demeanor, a slight hint of corrupt intent flickered deep within his eyes.

In Lin Xuankong’s view, Third Miss Miao Wan’er’s beauty was nothing exceptional... but that’s only within Lin Xuankong’s aesthetic!

Bear in mind that Lin Xuankong, surrounded by the likes of Young Lady Li Xiaolan, Third Lady Xiaoo Ying’Er, and Fourth Lady Guang Yu’er, had lived as the First of the Immortal World for over ten thousand years, encountering tens of thousands of immortal fairies! Those were true world-class beauties, distinct and ethereal, how could a mundane beauty like Miao Wan’er compare!

Yet what Lin Xuankong deemed merely somewhat good-looking in Miao Wan’er, was undeniably among the top in Qingyuan City in terms of grace and appearance!

Otherwise, how could she have captivated Deputy Captain Liang Yucheng, known for his excellent background, discerning eyes, and countless beauties he had met, for so many years!

Thus,

In this moment,

He Yao Dao, known for cultivating Evil Techniques, immediately fixated on Third Miss Miao Wan’er amid the crowd, feeling his heart itch.

Feigning depth, portraying seriousness, he wandered through the gaps between tables, casting his gaze upon the men and women around him, shaking his head slightly with a look of regret upon passing each table.

Only upon nearing the table with Third Miss Miao Wan’er did He Yao Dao pause, a look of delight suddenly blossoming across his face.
