The Transmigrator’s Cultivation

Translator: Lynn

The golden core cultivator’s voice transmission was swift, and Xu Ziqing followed his Shifu’s lead and sat on the left-hand seat, but his curiosity drew his gaze towards the door. He had accompanied Yun shixiong wholeheartedly to meet the future Shifu1I’ve decided to change master to shifu in some places to fit the sentence better, but he hadn’t paid much attention to the appearance of the shimei2Junior sister.

After a while, light footsteps approached the door but didn’t enter.

Master Qiu He laughed heartily and called out, “Girls, come inside! Your da shixiong3Eldest Senior Brother isn’t here anymore!”

Xu Ziqing couldn’t help but laugh, turning his head and trying to suppress his smile before turning back again.

Soon, the sound of footsteps drew nearer, accompanied by a faint fragrance in the air and the rustling of clothes. Clearly, several people were approaching. As expected, the wooden door was pushed open, and seven or eight girls entered.

These young girls had lovely faces, and their youthful appearance, coupled with their graceful figures and bright yet elegant attire, made them look even more beautiful as monks.

Master Qiu He smiled at the girls and said, “This is Xu Ziqing, my new direct disciple. Come here and greet your second shixiong.” All the girls bowed in unison and spoke tenderly, “I have seen the second shixiong…”

Xu Ziqing had never experienced such a scene before. Seeing so many girls at once, he felt like he was surrounded by flowers. It was hard for him to tell one from another, so he stood up and smiled gently, saying, “Everyone, you don’t need to be so formal.” The girls exchanged smiles, and each introduced themselves:

“I’m Fang Zhirou, please take care of me, second shixiong.”

“I’m Cen Qianer. I hope to learn from you, second shixiong.”

“I’m Lang Wan. Greetings, second shixiong…”

“I’m Qi Manman. I look forward to your guidance in the future, second shixiong…”

“I’m Chen Miaotong. Nice to meet you, second shixiong…”

“I’m Gongye Xi…”

“I’m Su Huiyu…”

“I’m Shao Yi…”

The melodious sounds of their greetings filled the air, and although the shimei were friendly, Xu Ziqing felt overwhelmed by the many soft words intertwined together. He wasn’t sure how to respond to each one, feeling somewhat dizzy.

Suddenly, when a delicate girl stepped forward, intending to get closer to Xu Ziqing, he was taken aback and instinctively stepped back.

Master Qiu He watched it all with amusement. When a girl in a pretty purple skirt tried to grab Xu Ziqing’s sleeve, he stopped him and said, “Don’t be shy, show your kindness to your sisters.”

The girls giggled as they stepped back, seeing the shyness of their new shixiong.

Xu Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at his Shifu, who wore a playful expression. He then looked at the shimei, who all smiled back. He couldn’t decide whether to find the situation funny or a bit helpless.

As the shimei stood up straight, Xu Ziqing had a clear view of their appearances.

He saw them wearing Luo skirts4, Ru skirts5, Yuehua skirts6a variation of mamian skirts , Liuxian skirts7, Liuyun skirts8I’m not sure about this one, but I searched the raws and it came up as this, and various styles, each with its own colors and beauty. Some looked delicate, some had distinct features, some exuded charm, and others appeared lively and lovely. Their temperaments were varied and unique, making them stand out in their own ways. But regardless of their differences, they were all stunningly beautiful women. Although they seemed older than Xu Ziqing in age, their low cultivation levels indicated their mediocre aptitudes.

Xu Ziqing observed them all and couldn’t help feeling a bit sighing. These stunning women of different styles were all handpicked by his Shifu, showing how much he truly cared for shixiong Yun. After a moment’s thought, Xu Ziqing opened his palm, revealing eight leaf bags: “I didn’t prepare any gifts beforehand, but these are small tokens of meeting. Please accept them.” Although Xu Ziqing had many spiritual herbs in his storage ring, and they were of high quality and ancient, the big world was vast and abundant, and he doubted that these spiritual herbs would carry much significance here. Hence, even though he selected some precious ones over three thousand years old, he casually referred to them as “Bo Li.”

Upon seeing the gifts, the eight women looked at Qiu He shifu, who was smiling and not displeased. This made them happy and immediately began to pick up the leaf bags.

Without any pretense or formality, they opened the leaf bags on the spot and found high-grade spiritual herbs that matched their own attributes. This delighted them even more, and they thanked Xu Ziqing with even more charming smiles.

“Second shixiong, you’re truly wonderful!”

“Thank you, Second shixiong!”

“Spiritual herbs of this age are rare…”

“Second shixiong’s meeting gift makes me feel ashamed to accept it…”

“Second shixiong…”

It was true that there were even better spiritual herbs in the world, but such treasures were not available to registered disciples like them who had not yet established their foundation. Considering the age and quality of the spiritual herbs Xu Ziqing had given them, they were indeed excellent gifts. Moreover, they were compatible with their attributes, which made them even happier. As they looked at Xu Ziqing again, they found him to be gentle and amiable, and they couldn’t help but admire their new shixiong.

Xu Ziqing felt relieved as he saw the reactions of all the shimei and felt a warmth in his heart.

As long as someone sincerely appreciates a gift, that’s all that matters.

The female disciples held the spiritual herbs in their hands and couldn’t help but admire them, while Xu Ziqing smiled contentedly.

Seeing the siblings getting along well, Master Qiu He’s eyes softened with kindness. “Ziqing, you are now under my sect, and it’s natural for you to live on this Xiaozhu Peak. I live in this wooden house as your teacher, and your shimei lives across the bridge and river from here. Your shixiong lives alone on the peak because he’s focused on practicing his swordsmanship… Do you have a preference for where you want to live?”

Xu Ziqing pondered for a moment and replied, “Shifu, since the shimei are all young and delicate, it’s fitting for you to be their elder. But I’m a man, so I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to live in the same cave with shimei. I think it might be best if I go to the peak and be neighbors with Yun shixiong.”

As soon as he said this, the room fell silent.

The shimei, who had been smiling a moment ago, turned pale upon hearing this.

One of the brave and impatient girls, named Qi Manman, whom Xu Ziqing had a good impression of, immediately said, “Second shixiong, you, you can’t live on the peak!”

Xu Ziqing was taken aback.

It seemed that the rest of the shimei followed her lead and began to speak up.

Cen Qian’er, dressed in rouge clothes, added, “Da… Da shixiong lives there. If Second shixiong goes, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be right!”

Another lively girl, Lang Wan, chimed in, “The peak is the coldest, Second shixiong, you shouldn’t go there to endure hardship!”

Chen Miaotong, who had tried to pull his sleeve earlier, even stomped her feet and said, “If you go live with shixiong, who knows… Oh, Second shixiong, don’t be fooled!”

Several other shimei also chimed in with advice, “Da shixiong’s swordsmanship is terrifying. Even looking at it directly is horrifying! You’re asking for trouble!”

“Da shixiong’s aura is very ominous. Second shixiong, you…”

“Second shixiong, even though you’re a man, you’re also our shixiong. You should just live farther away! It’s better not to take unnecessary risks…”

From these comments, it was evident that the Ruthless Killing Swordsmanship had a terrifying reputation even among their fellow disciples. Xu Ziqing had never been afraid of Yun Lie, but now, hearing the warnings from his shimei, he couldn’t help but feel a little heartache.

He shook his head slightly and reassured them, “Thank you all for your concern, but although Yun shixiong’s swordsmanship may seem troublesome, he is actually a very good person. You don’t need to be so worried…” Hearing these words from their second shixiong, the shimei looked wide-eyed in surprise.

Master Qiu He smiled and said, “Your second shixiong and Yun’er were already close friends before he came to my sect. If they want to live together, it shouldn’t be a problem. I think Yun’er wouldn’t have any objections.”

The shimei were shocked, but Gongye Xi quickly asked with suspicion, “Did shixiong make further progress in his swordsmanship? Our shixiong has already reached the peak of the Golden Core Transformation Stage, and the ruthless killing swordsmanship has also reached a major bottleneck. If you become friends with him, won’t you be in danger?”

They said Yun Lie is like a calamity. From this, it’s clear that these shimei are truly afraid of their shixiong!

Clearly, the reputation of Yun Lie’s ruthless killing swordsmanship had made a deep impression on them. From their reactions, it was evident that they were genuinely afraid of their shixiong.

At this moment, Shao Yi asked tremblingly, “Could it be that shixiong really broke through that level?”

Even though the other female cultivators were afraid of Yun Lie, they all looked expectantly at Master Qiu He.

Master Qiu He nodded with a smile and confirmed, “Yun’er has indeed found that breakthrough opportunity, and it is thanks to the help of your second shixiong.”

Upon hearing this, the female cultivators looked at Xu Ziqing again, their eyes filled not only with closeness but also admiration.

With no objections from the girls, Master Qiu He suggested, “In that case, let Ziqing and Yun’er live on the top of the mountain together. Ziqing belongs to the wood element, and while it may be challenging for him to open up a cave, Yun’er can help him.”

Xu Ziqing smiled in agreement, “Shifu, please rest assured.” In truth, he didn’t necessarily want to live on the peak, but it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to live with all the shimei. If Yun shixiong is already residing at the top of the peak, Xu Ziqing can simply move his residence to a lower level.

With Xu Ziqing’s residence decided, it was time to open up a cave and settle in.

Just at that moment, an intense chill suddenly enveloped them.

The temperature in the wooden house plummeted, turning it into an ice-cold chamber in an instant. The atmosphere was chilling, as if a pair of icy eyes scanned the air, sending shivers down the hearts of all the female cultivators. The overwhelming pressure made it difficult for them to stand on their own, and they had to support each other to avoid collapsing!

Xu Ziqing also felt as if he had been seen through to the depths of his soul. Though it was only for a moment, it left him greatly unsettled.

But Master Qiu He sprang up, laughing and cursing, “This rascal is attempting to break through the golden core at this time!”

He immediately set up a barrier to protect all the female cultivators and hurriedly rushed outside, warning, “Ziqing, quickly follow me!”

Translator notes

I made a mistake in the 100th chapter, Xu Ziqing’s hair is still long guys. it should be ‘brushed his hair aside’ instead of ‘shaved his hair off’ ( ‘ ﹋ ‘ ; )

Please let me know if there are typos/mistakes in the chapter.
