Cultivator With Modern AI - Chapter 580: Sending Help
“Tian! Since when did you come?” Chen Xue asked in surprise, seeing him walk out together with Liu Ying.
Xia Tian answered his aunt. “I’ve been here since earlier.”
“Hmm? Have you guys just finished dual cultivating?” Chen Xue asked again with a teasing smile.
Liu Ying shook her head. “We don’t dual cultivate, Sister Xue.”
“Oh? You’re not usually like that, Tian.” Chen Xue said as she laughed, but she suddenly let out a soft scream. “Ouch!
*Flick*
Xia Tian flicked his aunt’s forehead and shook his head at her. “Do you think I’m only thinking about sex? I just wanted to keep you all company for today, so how about our shop?”
“Not bad!” The two women answered simultaneously, and Liu Ying explained to him. “For the time being, I can still rest easy, since the Alchemist Guild still hasn’t sent people to me.”
“As for garments, Meng’er and I have gotten used to sewing with those sewing machines, and I’ve also been looking for people to help us out in the future.” Chen Xue joined in the explanation.
“That’s good, but I want you guys to stay focused on your cultivation, understand?” Xia Tian didn’t want them to neglect their cultivation just for the sake of taking care of their business. He wanted to bring them to a higher realm as soon as possible, so they had to continue cultivating to become strong.
They nodded in understanding and walked into the garden together, and they saw Leng Youxin sitting alone.
“Grandma, why are you here alone?” Xia Tian asked as he sat beside his grandmother. “Anyway, why isn’t Grandpa accompanying you?”
“Haven’t you heard about those ghost cultivators?” Leng Youxin asked back as she turned at her grandson.
Xia Tian raised his eyebrows; he had not heard of those ghost cultivators at all, and Zhu Yuhe had not informed him either.
“I forgot to tell you about that, Tian.” Liu Ying said. “Last night, Sister Yuhe summoned father and asked him to hunt those ghost cultivators along with the other generals.”
“I see.” Xia Tian nodded in understanding. ‘Alice, track down those ghost cultivators right now.’
[I’m working on it, master.] Without Xia Tian needing to order her, Alice had already started tracking down those ghost cultivators, and soon their locations had appeared in his mind. [There are plenty of them, master. Your grandfather, those generals, and the people from the sect are hunting them down now.]
‘En.’ Xia Tian then asked. “Where are Ran Qing and Nalan Qing?”
“They’re out looking for something, and they might not be back in a few days.” It was Chen Xue who answered him.
Hearing that, Xia Tian immediately sent a sound transmission to them, and he asked them to hunt down those ghost cultivators.
Even so, Xia Tian was also wondering in his heart, especially with their sudden appearance. ‘What’s going on here? I wouldn’t be surprised if those demons from the north came to this continent again, but why did those ghost cultivators suddenly appear now?’
[Anyway, I also detected the residual energy of a demon beast in a village, but it has disappeared again, master.]
Xia Tian raised his eyebrows upon hearing that. ‘Did you detect the presence of other demons in the village, Alice?’
[I didn’t detect the presence of other demons, but I did detect the residual energy of two strong cultivators. According to my calculations, their cultivation is at the early stage of the Venerable Origin Realm.]
‘Hmm? Are you sure their cultivation is in the Venerable Origin Realm?’ Xia Tian was really shocked to hear that.
[I’m pretty sure, master.]
‘Could it be that those people came from the Holy Central Continent? But what is their purpose in coming to this continent?’ Xia Tian wondered to himself.
[I don’t know, master. But you can ask Ran Qing and Nalan Qing to capture them, that way you can interrogate them later.]
After Xia Tian thought about it for a moment, he sighed softly and said. ‘Sigh, forget it! As long as they don’t cause trouble on this continent, I don’t want to have anything to do with the people from that continent just yet.’
[Well, I didn’t detect them doing anything, and they seemed to be just observing.]
“Tian? Why are you daydreaming?” Liu Ying finally asked, especially after she heard her son sigh.
Xia Tian shook his head at them. “I’ve asked Ran Qing and Nalan Qing to join the hunt for those ghost cultivators; that way we can prevent a lot of casualties.”
“That’s really good, Tian.” Chen Xue said. “Since their cultivation is much higher than that of the people of this world, they can help your grandfather and the others find those heretical cultivators quickly.”
“Anyway, where is Ning’er?” Xia Tian asked after he searched for Xia Ning using his senses but couldn’t find her in her room.
Hearing that, Leng Youxin sighed in her heart, and she still felt weird about the relationship between her grandson and her daughter. “Ning’er felt bored just staying at home, so she went with Xiang Yin and Yu Suya to sell your wine.”
“I see.” Although Xia Tian was surprised to hear that, he was also happy about it. Because all this time Xia Ning had only been staying at home.
In the end, Xia Tian accompanied his grandmother, mother, and aunt to talk about many things.

Meanwhile, after they received a voice transmission from Xia Tian, Nalan Qing and Ran Qing immediately parted ways, and they went to hunt those ghost cultivators.
Since their cultivation was above the mortal realm, it was extremely easy for them to locate them, and they immediately eliminated every ghost cultivator they encountered.
However, they left the sect members to deal with the ghost cultivators themselves, and they only helped Xia Ling and the other generals.
Their assistance allowed Xia Ling and the others to breathe a sigh of relief, as they felt overwhelmed by the fight against those ghost cultivators.
And with their actions, the number of ghost cultivators wreaking havoc on the southern continent decreased rapidly, and the casualties weren’t too many.
.
.
Meanwhile, the hunchbacked old man, who was flying to another area, suddenly stopped flying and landed on a large tree branch. And he immediately took out a lot of jade from his storage ring, but his eyes widened in shock when he saw that a lot of the jade in his hand had shattered. “What the hell is going on here? Why did my people die so quickly? Could it be that their deaths had something to do with Zhu Yuhe? But there’s no way she and her people could find my people this quickly.”
Suddenly, the hunchback old man felt a powerful aura rush towards him; he immediately took out an artifact like a blanket and covered his body with it.
If others had not seen him before, then people would not have been able to detect the hunchbacked old man’s presence, as he seemed to have merged into one with the tree and his aura had also completely disappeared.
The hunchbacked old man then looked up into the air and raised his eyebrows, but he was instantly shocked as he tried to detect the cultivation of the woman who had just appeared in the sky above him. ‘What the hell! How can there be such a strong woman on this continent? She’s even stronger than those guys!’
The woman was none other than Nalan Qing, and she spread her senses over the entire area. “Weird! I sensed the aura of a ghost cultivator from this place just now, but the aura suddenly disappeared.”
After searching for some time, Nalan Qing finally flew away from that place.
The hunchbacked old man didn’t leave the place immediately, and he chose to wait a bit longer, but he finally noticed something was wrong. ‘Damn it! Those two people must have known of the woman’s presence on this continent, and they deliberately used us as bait so they could carry out their actions.’
After a very long time, the hunchbacked old man finally moved away from that location, but he still didn’t release his artifact to avoid Nalan Qing’s detection.

Vermilion Capital Palace
Zhu Yuhe sat in her chair and breathed a sigh of relief after she got the reports from Xia Ling and the other generals. “Sigh, I didn’t expect that Tian would send Ran Qing and Nalan Qing to join in on hunting those ghost cultivators, and their actions made Old Ling and the others able to deal with those ghost cultivators more easily.”
“You should have told Tian from the start, Yuhe.” Zhou Xuan spoke as she appeared beside her. “I know you don’t want to depend too much on him, but he is our husband after all.”
After all, Zhu Yuhe was an empress, and she was also a combat cultivator, so she didn’t want to rely too much on Xia Tian to sort things out for her.
Back then, Xia Tian had helped her in the war against Hong Chen, and she felt that that was enough.
Before long, Zhu Yuhe sighed heavily and replied. “You are indeed right, Sister Xuan. Tian is my husband, and I should tell him about my problem.”
