I Have an Immortal Emperor Uncle Who Farms at Home Chapter 35: Joining the Sect

Two years ago, inside the main hall of Dao Tian Sect.

An elderly man with white hair glared furiously at Hua Jueshan, who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted in rage, "Hua Jueshan, do you admit your guilt?"

However, despite his master’s imposing presence, Hua Jueshan showed not even a hint of remorse.

"I did nothing wrong. Why should I feel guilty?"

"Was it you who killed the disciple from the Qiuyue Sect?"

Hua Jueshan’s master was named Jiang Gang.

"Yes."

Regarding the killing of the Qiuyue Sect disciple, Hua Jueshan didn’t dare deny it.

After all, he had done it, and he would own up to it.

"Since that’s the case, how can you say you’re not guilty?"

"Master, if I hadn’t killed him, he would’ve killed me."

There was nothing wrong with what Hua Jueshan said.

Before Jiang Gang could respond, an elder from the Qiuyue Sect, who had come to demand justice—roared, "My disciple was kind and compassionate by nature. How could he possibly have done anything that would cost someone their life?"

Hua Jueshan shot him a cold glare and replied dismissively, "You know very well what he did."

"How dare you! You’ve committed a grave sin, and not only do you feel no remorse, but you also speak so arrogantly!"

Then, the Qiuyue Sect elder turned to Jiang Gang and said, "What use is a disciple like this?"

However, if what Hua Jueshan said was true—"If I didn’t kill him, he would’ve killed me"—then the matter became much more complicated.

Seeing Jiang Gang still hesitating, the Qiuyue Sect representative issued a harsh threat: "Is the Dao Tian Sect’s leader going to cover up wrongdoing just to protect his own disciple?"

Jiang Gang, of course, understood the underlying message.

They just wanted him to make a quick decision.

"Damn it," he muttered to himself, "bullying us just because they’re stronger."

But unfortunately, the Qiuyue Sect’s strength far exceeded that of Dao Tian Sect.

If not for the rules that kept things in check, their sect might’ve been wiped out already.

After thinking it over for a long time, and under pressure from the other side, Jiang Gang finally made his decision: "Hua Jueshan, from this day forward, you are no longer a member of this sect."

However, the Qiuyue Sect elder was clearly unsatisfied with this outcome.

"Hmph! Jiang Gang, do you realize the one he killed was from our sect? There’s a saying: ‘a life for a life.’"

"You don’t need to provoke me. My disciple has already explained his reasons. Whether they’re true or not, neither of us has solid evidence."

"You…"

The elder from the Qiuyue Sect suddenly had nothing to say because he knew the truth.

He had personally witnessed the scene: His own disciple had attempted robbery and murder but failed, and was killed by Hua Jueshan in self-defense.

Jiang Gang could see what the other side was thinking. He gave a faint smile and looked at Qiu Lichen, saying, "Jueshan, take care of yourself."

Hua Jueshan glanced at the elder from the Qiuyue Sect and knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape his fate today. He could only accept his master’s decision.

"Master, thank you for your years of guidance and teaching."

After kowtowing three times with loud thuds, Hua Jueshan left Dao Tian Sect without looking back.

Later on, thankfully, his master secretly helped Qiu Lichen escape. He had since hidden his identity and lived quietly in Laiyang Town.

Otherwise, he would’ve already been targeted by the people from the Qiuyue Sect.

Until today, Hua Jueshan had returned once again to the sect that held so many memories for him.

Whether what happened back then was true or not, only Qiu Lichen knew the full story.

Fortunately, he had a master and senior brother who trusted him.

Inside the main hall of the sect.

After catching up for a while, Kong Molin said, "Junior Brother Hua, there’s no need to bring up the past."

"Thank you, Senior Brother!"

"So, what brings you back this time?"

"Senior Brother, I ran into some trouble in Laiyang Town."

Then, Hua Jueshan explained everything from beginning to end. Of course, framing everything to make Ye Fan look like the villain.

"Outrageous! I can’t believe a person like that still walks this world."

"Exactly, Master Kong. That Ye Fan not only crippled my younger brother, but also injured Uncle Hua, and in the end, took away everything I had!"

"Don’t worry, kid. Hua Jueshan’s problems are my problems too. I’ll help you get justice."

"Thank you so much, Master Kong."

Then, seeing that the moment was right, Hua Jueshan gave Lai Jian’an a look.

Lai Jian’an understood instantly. He took out a silver bank card from his pocket, ran over to Kong Molin, and respectfully said, "Master Kong, there’s five hundred thousand in here. It’s a small token of my respect."

As soon as he heard "five hundred thousand," Kong Molin’s eyes suddenly lit up.

But he still pretended to stay composed and said, "Kid, what’s the meaning of this?"

"This is..."

Before Lai Jian'an could finish speaking, Hua Jueshan interrupted, "Senior Brother, Lai Jian'an has also received my teachings. I've already come to regard him as my disciple. I hope..."

"Junior Brother Hua, I understand what you're getting at." With that, Kong Molin looked at Lai Jian'an and said, "From today onward, you are a disciple of our Dao Tian Sect."

Hearing those words, Lai Jian'an felt a tidal wave of emotion surge in his heart. He was overwhelmed with excitement and immediately knelt on the ground, performing a respectful kowtow to Kong Molin.

"Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle. Please accept this small token of appreciation from your junior."

"Good. You’re quite a promising young man."

Without the slightest hesitation, Kong Molin took the bank card from Lai Jian'an’s hand.

After seeing Kong Molin accept the card, Lai Jian'an turned and knelt before Hua Jueshan as well, respectfully saying, "Master, please accept my bow as your disciple."

"Hahaha, Lai Jian'an, get up quickly. From now on, you’re a disciple of Dao Tian Sect."

"Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle. Thank you, Master!"

Seeing that his first goal had been achieved, Hua Jueshan decided it was time to bring up the second matter.

"Senior Brother, there’s one more important issue I need to discuss."

"Oh? Let’s hear it."

"I heard in Laiyang Town that there’s a kind of cabbage that can cure all illnesses."

Kong Molin had thought it would be something rare or powerful, but to his surprise, what Qiu Lichen mentioned was just an ordinary cabbage.

"Junior Brother Hua, you’re not confused, are you? Did you just say... cabbage?"

Qiu Lichen responded firmly, "Yes, cabbage but not ordinary cabbage."

"Alright, I think you’ve just been traveling too long and you're exhausted. Go get some rest. We’ll talk more tomorrow."

"Senior Brother, please believe me."

"Grandmaster Uncle, what Master said is actually true."

Even Wang Bazi and Huang Mao, who had been standing humbly in the corner, chimed in: "We can vouch for it too."

Seeing that everyone was confirming the story, Kong Molin became intrigued.

"Tell me exactly what’s going on."

Then, Wang Bazi, who knew the details, stepped forward with his injured arm and explained what he knew.

He described the cabbage’s full appearance, its price, and everything related to Ling Yanting.
