“By the way, I’m now part of the Luoshui Guards, not a constable anymore.”

“Ah, I thought so. After all, we’re not in the Imperial City. It’s unusual that it falls on constables to chase down ancient cultivators.” Fifth Elder showed no surprise, or rather, his concern now was when he could catch up with the Great Yu cultivator.

“What are the Luoshui Guards?” Lu Yang struggled to communicate with Meng Jingzhou using Spiritual Sense.

He didn’t know as much about the official positions in Great Xia as Meng Jingzhou did.

Li Haoran and Qin Yanyan also listened curiously through their Spiritual Senses. In fact, Qin Yanyan had heard her mother talk about it, but Meng Jingzhou certainly knew more.

“The Luoshui Guards are a special organization established by the Great Xia dynasty, specifically tasked with capturing evil cultivators who have committed numerous crimes, such as those from the demonic sect, evil cultivators who bully others with their power, or ancient cultivators who don’t follow the rules, and so on.”

“Remember what happened at Buyi Town? After we fled with the Sect Leader, we reported the incident at Buyi Town to the court. It was the Luoshui Guards dispatched by the court who handled the aftermath.”

“After the Eternity Sect’s headquarters were breached, the task of eliminating all of the Eternity Sect’s branches was also completed by the Luoshui Guards.”

“I have heard of this Commander Yu before. He was one of the top four constables in the Imperial City. It seems that the court saw his high Cultivation Level, rich experience, and crafty tactics, and assigned him to the Luoshui Guards.”

“The person in charge within the Luoshui Guards is called Nine Palaces. Given his qualifications and Cultivation Level, he must be one of the Nine Palaces.”

“That strong?!”

Qin Yanyan did not expect that the important person who suddenly asked Fifth Elder for help on the flying chariot was in charge of capturing evil cultivators. Needless to say, he must have rich battle experience and be at the top of the Unification Stage in terms of Cultivation Level.

“Oh, that’s quite impressive.” To Lu Yang, however, it wasn’t anything special. As he heard stories of ancient shameful chapters from Fairy Eternity every day, he didn’t regard a Cultivator at Unification Stage as something significant.

Li Haoran didn’t react as strongly as Qin Yanyan did. After all, as a disciple of the Seek Dao Sect, didn’t the elders he deal with on a daily basis excel in the Unification Stage?

The four of them stopped communicating through Spiritual Sense. The speed of the flying chariot was so fast that their Spiritual Senses would dissipate if they pushed it out slightly. They could no longer communicate at all.

Both Fifth Elder and Yu Qian remained calm and were still in the mood to chat.

Yu Qian wasn’t in a hurry. If even Fifth Elder couldn’t catch up, his efforts would be in vain no matter how hard he tried.

“By the way, show him no mercy when we catch up. He has killed.”

“The audacity!” On hearing this, Fifth Elder’s temper flared up. He stomped his foot and his body was engulfed in blue flames. The speed of the flying chariot increased by two notches.

The Great Yu cultivator suddenly felt a calamity approaching. Looking back, he saw a flying chariot blazing with blue flames charging straight at him.

“What is this thing?!” His face drastically changed. The flying chariot was unbelievably fast. He would believe it if he was told that a cultivator at Transcendance Tribulation Stage was chasing him.

The flying chariot was too fast. He had no chance to react. The sharp top of the chariot violently hit him in the chest.

The flying chariot, painstakingly refined by Fifth Elder, was a flying magic artifact. It was hard to destroy, and the destructive force it generated when it flew at a speed close to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage was unimaginable.

Boom——Boom——Boom——

After piercing through three large mountains in a row, the flying chariot finally nailed the Great Yu cultivator to the cliff of the fourth mountain peak, with smoke and dust billowing.

The Luoshui Guard trailing behind, the old Chu, was dumbfounded: “This is Zhou Xin’s flying chariot!” He just then remembered the origin of the flying chariot.

“Trying to compete with me in speed?” Fifth Elder snorted coldly and jumped down from the flying chariot.

Fifth Elder deliberately held back, choosing not to kill the Great Yu cultivator directly.

The Great Yu cultivator had a gaping hole in his chest, where the point of the flying chariot had struck. He was vomiting blood in big gulps, struggling to use the power of the rules.

“[I establish the following rule here: The mountains here transform into Mountain Gods and serve my purpose…]”

Yu Qian sneered coldly, knocking him out with a single punch.

Using the power of rules right under his nose, did he really think Yu was just twiddling his thumbs?

“So it’s Elder Zhou Xin, I wondered why Yu Qian mentioned needing backup.” Old Chu arrived to see the Great Yu cultivator already unconscious, tied up with chains by the Fifth Elder and heaved a sigh of relief.

“Chu Dalong!” The Fifth Elder and the Luoshui Guards had collaborated many times and he had practically recognized all of their Unification Stage cultivators.

Old Chu darkened his face: “I’ve said so many times, I’ve changed my name to Chu Long.”

“It seems that this barbarian holds some unknown secrets of vital importance. We owe you big for capturing him. When I get time, I’ll treat you to a drink!” Yu Qian thanked him with a salute.

“Why are you talking about thanks? It’s rare to legally race the flying shuttles.” The Fifth Elder was particularly thrilled this time, “Next time if you can’t catch up with someone, call me. I guarantee I can catch them!”

“This chain blocks his magic power. Consider it a token from me for doing the right thing.”

The Luoshui Guards had similar methods, but the outcome certainly wouldn’t be as good as what this Grandmaster Refiner, the Fifth Elder, had produced.

The Fifth Elder kindly reminded them, “Right, for safety’s sake, since this man possesses some unknown secret, you’d best bring a few more Unification Stage cultivators to suppress him. It would be disastrous if someone managed to snatch him midway.”

“Alright, I’ll call some people now.” Yu Qian nodded, sending out a talisman into the sky. Shortly after, two more Unification Stage cultivators flew over.

These two Unification Stage cultivators seemingly knew the Fifth Elder too. After giving a brief greeting, the four Luoshui Guards escorted the Great Yu cultivator back to the capital.

“Alright, let’s head back. Things related to ancient cultivators are not something you can touch yet. It’s too dangerous. Wait till you reach the Spirit Transformation stage.” The Fifth Elder gestured to the four youngsters, telling them not to overthink.

Before leaving, some figures flew over from afar. They used earth magic to repair the mountain that had been damaged by the flying shuttle.

Rocks and soil hovered in the air, rhythmically filling the gaps in the mountain.

Then they gathered the trees that had been knocked over. Those that were still alive were replanted using the “Tree-Planting Sutra”. Those that were broken were replaced with new trees.

“Who are these people?” The four, including Lu Yang, had never seen such a thing.

The Fifth Elder explained, “Oh, they’re responsible for the aftermath work on behalf of the imperial court. Your cultivation levels are not high enough yet to cause catastrophic damage. Once your levels are high enough, a simple move can create a hole in a mountain, crack the ground or break a river.”

“If this were left unchecked, the landscape would change daily. In a few years, the map of Great Xia would have to be redrawn.”

“To prevent this, Great Xia found a group of cultivators who are responsible for repairing the terrain, masters of earth and wood magic.”

“The capture this time was official business, so I’m not responsible for the damage caused to the mountain by the flying shuttles. The imperial court is in charge of the aftermath. If it was due to a private dispute, either I need to repair the damaged terrain or I would have to pay in spirit stones to hire others to do it.”

“So when a person’s level of cultivation reaches a certain stage, in order to avoid trouble, they either fight in the arena or go to heaven to fight.”

“Of course, if you’re fighting with a cultivator from the demon path, you’re not responsible for the damage to the terrain.”

“Actually, the regulation of restoring the terrain after fights originated from an incident twenty thousand years ago.”

“The governor managing Qingzhou, who was also the leader of the province, thought the city in the neighboring province was extremely prosperous and was considering ways to have Qingzhou be just as prosperous.”

“Coincidentally, his cultivation level was quite high, at the Transcendance Tribulation stage. He came up with a great idea and called upon his close friend, who also happened to be at the Transcendance Tribulation stage.”

“They fought each other, causing a monumental upheaval that altered the landscape, and under the guise of the fight, moved the thriving city from the neighboring province to within the boundaries of Qingzhou.”

“When the imperial court found out about this matter and realized there were no laws regulating such an incident, it was difficult to handle, so they enacted a rule that high-level cultivators must restore the landscape to its original state after a fight.”

Lu Yang: “…”

You high-level cultivators sure pull a lot of tricks.
