What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 599
599 Taking Over (1)
“Then what’s the matter?”
Song Shi was puzzled. He had indeed never seen this immortal before. Why did he feel a sense of familiarity?
He took another look at this person. He was dressed in a gray Daoist robe and had a thin figure. He looked sage-like, but he kept feeling that he was a little wretched.
“I’m Su Fu. I want to get to know Fellow Daoist Song. I hope you don’t mind.”
“Su Fu?”
Song Shi felt that this name was quite interesting.
“I’m in the same batch as Fellow Daoist. Currently, I’m the East Continent’s Nine Heavens Lightning Punishment Immortal Monarch.”
Su Fu smiled and said, “Currently, I can barely be considered Fellow Daoist Song’s superior.”
“Um…”
Song Shi was stunned. This guy was his superior’s superior and was a True Immortal.
He said speechlessly, “Why didn’t you appear just now?”
Good lord, he thought that this person did not know that his subordinate was fighting here without saying a word.
“Such a small matter happens occasionally in the Immortal Court. It’s better to let it go. I have to give everyone a chance to fight for their status with their own abilities.”
Su Fu smiled and said, “It’s pretty good now.”
“Alright, Immortal Monarch, you’re the first immortal I’ve seen who makes not wanting to be a busybody sound so elegant and refined.”
Song Shi smiled, he did not mind Su Fu watching the show from the side. The other party did not want to offend Treasure Light Immortal, he did not want anyone to stop him from hitting the dog.
“Fellow Daoist Song, your words are very interesting. I think our Lightning Punishment Division will be very lively in the future.”
Su Fu seemed very amiable. He did not mind that Song Shi did not treat him as a superior at all. He glanced at Kang Lixun and the other immortals, whose Dharma Power was still sealed. “It’s not easy for them to work for others either. You can take it as venting your anger after beating them up. Return their intrinsic Dharma treasures and some things that you don’t need.”
“Lord Su, your words are too nice. I’m too embarrassed not to return them.”
Song Shi felt very comfortable hearing this. He immediately threw back everything other than immortal crystals and immortal pills and said coldly, “I don’t think you’ll dare to provoke me again.”
With that said, he formed a seal and undid the seal. The four immortals stood up with a cry. There was nothing good about their bodies. If not for the fact that immortals had powerful vitality and had the Law Power to protect their bodies, they would have died long ago.
They looked at Song Shi in fear and gritted their teeth as they put away their things. Then, they thanked Su Fu.
“Why are you thanking me? You should thank Immortal Envoy Song for showing mercy.”
Su Fu corrected.
Kang Lixun and the others hesitated for a moment before thanking Song Shi for showing mercy.
Song Shi was in a good mood now that he had gained face. He waved his hand and said, “In the future, we’ll all be colleagues. Let’s just pretend that we won’t get to know each other until we fight this time.”
Kang Lixun and the others could only smile bitterly. If they knew people like this every time, they would die very quickly.
“Go back and recuperate quickly. Something might happen to you soon. Recover as soon as possible.”
Su Fu waved his hand.
Song Shi looked at this person. He was not simple. He resolved the conflict between his subordinates with just a few words and even made him feel very comfortable. This ability would not be bad no matter where he went.
Compared to Treasure Light Immortal and Kang Lixun, his attitude towards this person was completely different, at least they got along very well, it was similar to the homonym of his name.
The latter continued, “We’re at Fellow Daoist Song’s door now. Aren’t you going to invite me in?”
“At this point, how can I refuse?”
With a thought from Song Shi, the door to the mansion opened and he extended his hand. “Please.”
The two of them entered the Immortal estate one after another. As space fluctuated, they could no longer see what was happening outside.
“Let’s go, let’s go. There’s no more drama to watch.”
“Hehe, it’s really satisfying to watch today. It’s rare to see it in ten thousand years.”
“This can go on for hundreds of years.”
The surrounding immortals retracted their gazes reluctantly and dispersed.
In the mansion, Song Shi knew where the sense of familiarity came from. In the booklet Taiwei had given him, there was a portion of the situation of immortal officials.
Due to the fact that there were too many immortal officials, he had only roughly scanned the area and had not had the time to take a look.
“Fellow Daoist Song, it’s quite quiet here, but you can arrange for some maids and servants to serve you. This way, it will be more convenient usually.”
Su Fu casually said, “In the Immortal World, you have to learn to enjoy yourself. Everyone is very particular about appearances, so you can see that the various Immortal Gods basically have mounts. The more extravagant ones even have pets. They are still very different from the lower realm that often fights and kills for resources.”
Song Shi knew that the other party was talking about him killing the immortal crane. He smiled faintly and said, “Take your time. There will always be a suitable one.”
“Fellow Daoist Song, your standards are high and you don’t like ordinary wild cranes. However, there are still too few high-level mounts like the True Dragon and the Green Luan. You can make do with them usually to prevent other proud Immortal Gods from looking down on you because of this matter.”
His words were very clear. If he wanted to survive in the Immortal World, he had to have dignity and mounts. Otherwise, with Song Shi’s temper, it was very likely that he would fight some Immortal Gods because of this.
“Um…”
Song Shi smiled awkwardly. With his habit, if he was mocked by some people, he might really attack them directly.
“I’ve already eaten the immortal crane. I’ll buy another one when I’m free.”
Su Fu could not help but tease, “If your reputation of eating immortal cranes spreads, which immortal crane will dare to follow you? Just get a flying Dharma treasure like an auspicious cloud to lead the way. It’s fine as long as it’s not too bad. Actually, most of our Lightning Division uses clouds as flying Dharma treasures.”
Song Shi was speechless. Wasn’t it just eating a fat crane? Was there a need to do this?
“There’s one more thing. There might be some major movements in the Immortal Court recently. You might not be able to rest for a hundred years.”
Su Fu began to get down to business, “I see that your ability is no longer inferior to that of an old Heavenly Immortal. You just lack some experience. If you’re interested, I can arrange for you to take office as soon as possible to familiarize yourself with the situation.”
“I can do that.”
Song Shi nodded. He also wanted to go out for a walk. This would be beneficial to collecting resources. He could not kill a crane to kill a dog every other day, right?
“It’s good that you have no objections. After you’re done preparing, you can go to the East Continent at any time. Although it’s not as rich as the Central Continent, it’s not bad either. It’s just that there are more demons and mountains. After you go, you should take it easy.”
Su Fu had revealed some of the situation to Song Shi in advance to remind him.
“Demon? Then it shouldn’t be a problem for me to collect some protection fees, right?”
Song Shi’s eyes lit up.
“Fellow Daoist Song, I’ve already told you that there’s a mountain. How can you collect protection fees?”
Su Fu held his forehead, “Remember, when you do things, it’s best to ask about the mountain behind you, lest you offend too many Immortal Gods.”
“Looks like the internal affairs of the Immortal Court are really complicated.”
Song Shi shook his head and rolled his eyes. “Then I’ll take office tomorrow and investigate the situation.”
“What’s the hurry?”
Su Fu frowned: “You just offended Treasure Light Immortal, aren’t you afraid that he will target you?”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Does he dare to kill the Immortal Envoy of the Immortal Court?”
Song Shi did not care. So what if he dared to kill him?
If Treasure Light Immortal dared to kill him, he would dare to die.
“He might not dare to do it on the surface, but some fellows do. The Immortal Court doesn’t control everything. There are still various immortal sects here and some crooked sects that can’t see the light of day.”
Su Fu said meaningfully, “Keeping a low profile and being smart will allow you to live a stable life.”
