Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 560 Blood Charcuterie Market Town

The woman scoffed at Yang Qing’s response clearly not believing him while the elderly man seemed like he had said all he needed to say. He lowered his head as if to say he was done talking or accommodating Yang Qing.

Yang Qing didn’t say much as he took out a few feathers of the celestial nesting weaver that he had forcibly plucked out during one of their many scuffles. He considered it part of the reparations owed by the foul-mouthed weaver.

The two obsidian serpents immediately froze as their bodies seemed to contort like they were losing control of their transformation and were being forced into their original forms. Their bodies even seemed like they wanted to genuflect on the spot and all these were caused by the four soft white feathers that released an ethereal light which made it look like it had been plucked from the heavens.

Just as it looked like they were about to lose control, Yang Qing put away the feather. When Yang Qing took out the feathers, he expected such a reaction. Their reaction was bloodline suppression at its finest. Bloodline suppression was a phenomenon among spirit beasts where those of a higher bloodline could suppress those with lower bloodlines just through presence alone, governed by the laws of natural Dao.

Bloodline was like a crown or a shackle to spirit beasts depending on which side of the bloodline coin they fell on.

To escape the confines of this phenomenon, the spirit beast had to at the very least reach the domain realm, which the two obsidian serpents had not reached.

The celestial nesting weaver had a superior bloodline that was at the same level as the phoenix, kunpeng, roc, or dragon. Despite its languid and uninspiring look, it had a noble bloodline. Yang Qing had it imbue the feathers with spiritual imprints which was why it had a strong effect on the two spirit beasts.

“Like I said, we don’t need your bodies or bloodline. The deal promised to you still stands. We will help you find who killed your daughter, they are the true culprits in this whole thing. If you lay your anger, prejudice, and hubris about yourself aside, you will be able to see this.

But words are not enough to convince you, so something else needs to be done..” Yang Qing said as he took out his communication talisman.

For what he planned for the couple, he needed the approval of the Judicial Review Committee.

“Judge Yang Qing, what is it? Have you settled in well?” asked a soft motherly voice.

“I have settled in well, thanks to your efforts and the seniors around me..”

“Good, so what is it?”

“I needed the opinion of the committee on a certain matter…”

“The two obsidian serpents, I take it?”

“Yes..”

“What is it you wanted to discuss? Long Enlai, Jia Bohai, and Jiang Chen are here too..”

“Could I alter the plans for the two? Rather than have them stay here, they could be sent to the Blood Charcuterie Market, and three or four sites at the Insitute whose occupants can trounce them, and someone from the beast hall to guide them around..”

“Reason?”

“I don’t think they have interacted with the outside world much. Experiencing those places may be an eye-opener for them and shatter any self-conceived notions they have which will help in our cooperation moving forward..”

“Mmmh, okay then. Is Fen Xu there?”

“I am..”

“What do you think?”

“It can’t hurt..”

“Okay then, we will have someone from the beast hall pick them up and guide them for a week. It should be sufficient..”

“Thank you, seniors..”

“Take care Yang Qing..”

Yang Qing heaved a sigh of relief as he put away his communication talisman.

“Thank you for your support, Senior Fen Xu..” Yang Qing said as he cupped his fists to the stoic gold eagle guard, who chuckled slightly as she said,

“You really are as vindictive as they say..”

lightsΝοvel.cοm Yang Qing was shocked by her sudden laugh before he rubbed his nose in slight embarrassment as he said,

“It can’t be helped. To deal with their level of obstinancy, it’s the only way..”

There was slight guilt in his tone since he knew the suggestions he made had a certain level of petty vengeance and vindictiveness to it.

The Blood Chacurterie Market was a famous small town that was next to the Sea of Churning Beasts.

Because of how close the town was to the sea, it constantly had a blood mist around it, which a small part came from the town itself while a large part came from the Sea Of Churning Beasts.

The Sea itself was blood red from the constant fights that happened between its habitants and or from cultivators who came to try their luck there. The Sea was home to countless spirit beasts whose variety seemed limitless.

There were certain unique spirit beasts you could never find anywhere else but there, the cold flame perch was one of them.

The spirit beasts were walking treasure troves, and the sea itself also hid countless other natural treasures that were capable of changing the fate of a cultivator, which was why despite the high mortality rate of the region, where even an early domain expert could easily die, countless still tried their hand there.

It was for this reason that the Blood Charcuterie Market Town came about. Those who survived would trade within that town. At the start, it was just a simple barter trade between survivors of the venture from the sea who managed to get something out of it before it mushroomed into a merchant town.

Every reputable merchant organization had a branch open there that gave prices and offers that were so outlandish that it tempted countless to flock to the town and risk their lives to venture into the Sea of churning beasts.

Soon the town that at the start looked like a village became one of the most prosperous towns on the continent where anything could be traded at the right price and because of its mix mash of different organizations, it was a free town with no ruler. Even the Order had an establishment there governed by the Shadow Hawks as it was a haven for sourcing information from all around, despite it being famed for the place where you could any kind of meat.

The streets were lined up with stalls that had meats from all kinds of spirit beasts which contributed to the bloody mist that pervaded the area, and because the area was filled with all kinds of flesh from powerful spirit beasts, someone below the middle stages of the core formation realm would not be able to survive there.

They would have their bodies crushed under the pressure being released by those corpses. Yang Qing had once visited the place. He redeemed his merit points for the chance to be accompanied there. He always wanted to visit the town, but it was where the powerful gathered, he couldn’t risk going alone, especially with his late-stage core formation cultivation base at the time, so he needed someone powerful to accompany him.

A gold eagle guard went as his protector, and the experience was more than he had imagined.

The reason he wanted the two obsidian serpents to go there was to shatter the illusion they had that flood dragon bloodline was special.

Once they saw a carved-up flood dragon being hung up on some stall somewhere, maybe they might realize getting one isn’t as hard or extremely coveted as they think. And if that didn’t work, then getting sent to one of the Insitute special sites would work.

There were forests filled with spirit beasts that had a bloodline that was as powerful as a flood dragon if not more. Having the obsidian serpent couple be ‘guided’ by a few of those spirit beasts may very well help bring some clarity to their muddled minds.

That week’s experience was bound to shake a few things up in them. The road to personal clarity is paved with extreme humility and Yang Qing was sure to help them with that. Since they were under his care, it was his duty to do all he could for them.
