"Cough, cough, to celebrate my Fishing Rank increase today, I'll open two card packs to test my luck!"
Su Ping took a deep breath and spent twenty fishing coins to exchange for two Huzhong Cave Heaven exclusive card packs.
Although the items opened were Huzhong Cave Heaven exclusive, it didn't mean there were no good things that could enhance his main strength.
Su Ping remembered that in the Huzhong Cave Heaven, one could open special spiritual fields and corresponding spiritual seeds.
Then there was also the Packages Cave Heaven Profound Water that could accelerate the ripening of crops.
The sooner he got these things, the more they could help him!
Swish!
Su Ping's heart stirred, and he opened the two card packs.
Immediately, a golden light flashed before his eyes!
A stream of information floated by, and Su Ping quickly looked at it:
[Zhaoyue Tingfeng Pavilion, Main Building, Quality: Rare, Huzhong Cave Heaven Exclusive, Placement can slightly increase Cave Heaven Spiritual Qi output]
[Evil-Repelling and Punishing Stone Lion, Special Building, Quality: Precious, Huzhong Cave Heaven Exclusive, Placement can slightly increase Cave Heaven Spiritual Qi output]
"One Rare, one Precious!"
"In the past, that would have been two consecutive single draws, one gold and one purple!"
"Good luck is with me!"
Although these two items seemed temporarily useless, their quality was evident, making Su Ping smile from the bottom of his heart.
"Since my luck is so good, I should pursue the fleeing enemy with the momentum of victory!"
Su Ping thought for a moment, then checked his inventory. Excluding the recent expenses and enjoyment, he still had 60 fishing coins, 95 Little Green Fish, and 32 Big Green Fish.
Su Ping bought two more Huzhong Cave Heaven exclusive card packs.
[Zhaoyue Stone, Decoration, Quality: Common, Huzhong Cave Heaven Exclusive.]
[Green Willow, Decoration, Quality: Common, Huzhong Cave Heaven Exclusive]
"Hmm?"
Su Ping looked at this seemingly normal drop rate.
A faint sense of unease subtly arose in his heart.
However, thinking of the rare building he had opened earlier, Su Ping muttered to himself:
"No big deal!"
"Next time, I'll definitely get something good, and I haven't used the fish I caught earlier for card draws."
"Besides, don't ask! If you ask, it's just a small recharge, not a real recharge!"
Su Ping hardened his heart and threw in the remaining forty fishing coins.
After three consecutive common decorations—Cloud Pattern Tea Set, Flying Crane Screen, and Rose Seed—finally, a purple light appeared!
It timely prevented Su Ping from putting on a pained expression.
[Immortal Crane Boy, Special Doll, Quality: Precious, Huzhong Cave Heaven Exclusive, Can act on command after placement.]
"Today was not a loss, one gold and two purple in eight draws!"
Having spent all his fishing coins, Su Ping's body seemed to relax as well.
It wasn't just self-comfort; after reading the simple descriptions of these Huzhong Cave Heaven exclusive items, Su Ping vaguely felt that once he obtained the Huzhong Cave Heaven, he wouldn't regret the cost of drawing these today.
Su Ping still had willpower and did not convert his fish catches into fishing coins to continue drawing cards.
Instead, he used up the remaining ten Fishing attempts at the Linyue Lake Fishing spot.
Seven Little Green Fish and three Big Green Fish.
After his Fishing Rank increased to Rank 3, the probability of catching higher quality fish indeed significantly increased!
Now, both Big Green Fish and Little Green Fish met the requirements for Huzhong Cave Heaven exchange; he just needed the Azure Spirit Fish to bite.
After Fishing, Su Ping returned to Linyue Manor to rest for a while, just as he was hesitating whether to return to the Water Blue Star Fishing spot to try his luck.
Su Ping suddenly let out a soft "eh," sensing a reminder from Ling Rat Xiao Hui in his mind.
Su Ping quickly closed his eyes and strengthened his connection with Ling Rat Xiao Hui.
Soon, he saw the images transmitted by Xiao Hui.
It was from a few of the hundreds of elite rats controlled by Xiao Hui, hidden in the wilderness, who discovered an anomaly in a village.
Any place where these rats could be found was under the jurisdiction of Jinque City, considered Su Ping's territory as an Inspector.
From Xiao Hui's relay, Su Ping learned that two black-robed Cultivators with a group of giant wolves had appeared in the village a few minutes ago.
Upon entering the village, a series of screams immediately erupted, followed by shouts and the sound of whips.
Apparently, these black-robed Cultivators driving giant wolves were not there to massacre the village but were doing something else.
The key was confirming that the opponents were likely only Loose Cultivators at Qi Training First or Second Stage.
Those giant wolves were also suspected to be ordinary mountain beasts controlled by the Animal Controlling Technique.
There were no other anomalies detected by the rats in the surroundings.
Su Ping snorted coldly, and after having the butler notify the City Lord's Mansion, he left Linyue Manor and sped away.
Such muddying of the waters must be crushed in its infancy!
Let them know that there are still Immortal Sect Cultivators diligently fulfilling their duties here!
Otherwise, evil Cultivators from all directions would think this place is easy to bully, and then it would be impossible to guard against them.
If it causes a chain reaction and attracts some old monsters who plan to conduct blood sacrifices, should he intervene or not?
Conversely, as long as he showed enough strength, the world is vast; where else could evil Cultivators cause trouble?
Su Ping's speed was extremely fast.
The black-robed Cultivators in that village had just finished grouping the villagers, who were all tied with a rope and being led out of the village entrance.
More than a dozen giant wolves with gray-white fur became restless as they sensed the Spiritual Pressure of the Spirit Rats.
"Not good!"
"A Cultivator is coming!"
"How could they arrive so quickly? We clearly chose a small path and didn't attract attention!"
The two black-robed Cultivators rushed out and saw the fast-moving afterimage appearing in the distance, their hearts filled with dread.
They were just Loose Cultivators temporarily moonlighting as evil Cultivators.
All they dared to do was abduct some Mortals to certain places to earn a meager living.
This business used to be bad, mainly because there were few customers willing to pay Spirit Stones, and even fewer Mortals valuable enough to be worth Spirit Stones!
But recently, they found their luck had turned!
Suddenly, several big clients appeared, who were not picky and wanted any living person!
It was just that the quantity was a bit large, and the transportation process was somewhat troublesome.
However, these clients paid with Spirit Stones and Medicinal Pills!
Clients who paid with Spirit Stones were good clients, and they would find ways to overcome any difficulties.
Yet, they didn't expect that the first time they planned to make a big fortune, they would encounter a Cultivator meddling in their affairs.
"Dao…"
The older black-robed Cultivator was about to negotiate with Su Ping, hoping to share some profits and resolve the matter peacefully.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the black-robed Cultivator's eyes widened as he clearly saw Su Ping's Daoist robe and decorations.
"It's the Inspector!"
"Run!"
The two black-robed Cultivators' bodies tensed abruptly, abandoning the giant wolves and immediately fleeing in separate directions!
No one intended to confront him head-on; Inspectors, apart from the anomaly Su Ping, were at least Old Cultivators at the Cultivation Qi Training Middle Stage.
Nor did anyone think of kidnapping those villagers to threaten the Inspector.
Since the Crimson Kite Immortal Sect was established in this region, no Cultivator would consider the villagers, who were scattered across the land like weeds, as something that could be used to threaten an opponent.
To make a Cultivator wary, at least they would need to be important personnel of the Mortal aristocratic families or powerful clans!
Even when Righteous Path Cultivators pursued evil Cultivators, it was more often driven by the idea of 'my territory, my rules; I forbid it, so you cannot do it.'
How could these black-robed Cultivators outrun Su Ping, who had achieved Body Tempering Minor Achievement?
Su Ping dashed towards one black-robed Cultivator, and with a single sword strike, he severed both his legs.
Ling Rat White, on his shoulder, also used his speed to catch up to the other black-robed Cultivator and spat out a Thunder Fire Pearl he held in his mouth.
With a loud boom!
The black-robed Cultivator, struck directly in the back, immediately rolled on the ground like a rag for over ten meters before lying prostrate and barely alive…
