Seeing that they didn’t reply, a tall, strong man leading the group waved his knife and said loudly, “Where do you come from? Do you have the pass?”

　　“Pass?” Lonemoon was stunned. So it wasn’t a robbery. He hurried to change into a professional, business-like smile. “Big Brother, we…”

　　“Who is your big brother!” That man interrupted him directly, and his look grew even more cautious. “Don’t talk nonsense, produce your pass immediately, or don’t blame us for not being merciful!”

　　“…” Lonemoon fell silent. This was his first failure ever in negotiation. Just as he was thinking what that pass looked like and whether he should directly make one with a spell for them to see…

　　“Hurry up!” Another younger man at the side urged them. He gave Shen Ying, who was closest to them, a look. “Pass!”

　　“I have none.” Shen Ying’s head tilted, but she turned a hand and handed over a fruit. “You want fruit?”

　　The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched. “Shen Ying!” Don’t make more trouble. Who’d want your fruit? And wasn’t that one in your hand the unripened one that you failed to give me last time? Can you please be more sincere when you invite people to eat?

　　Just when he was about to do some explanation, the man in front of them gave the fruit a look, then turned back to say to others, “This one has no problem.” With that said, he took the fruit, and pulled Shen Ying into his own group. And then, he took up his weapon once again and pointed it towards him and Chef.

　　Lonemoon: “…”

　　Yi Qing: “…”

　　How the f*ck is this possible?

　　(⊙ o ⊙)

　　“What about the two of you?” That person continued to look at the two fiercely. He clasped the weapon in his hands tightly, and said loudly, “No pass. They are turned from those human-eating monsters! Catch them!”

　　Once he finished speaking, others all took up their weapons and made the movement of poking them over.

　　“Wait!”

　　Lonemoon thought about something within a split second. The corner of his mouth twitched, then he produced a pack of pastries and handed it over. Chef also got it and produced half a braised pork shoulder.

　　Those people took them with some suspicion and even took a few bites before they put away their weapons.

　　“If you have passes, you should have said so earlier. It won’t be good if it comes to a misunderstanding.” That man in lead gave the two a disapproving look, as though blaming them for being too slow. He thought about it and then added, “But your passes are quite tasty. How did you make them?”

　　Lonemoon: “…”

　　Yi Qing: “…”

　　Are you sure you are checking passes and not robbing?

　　“Sigh. Recently, it is not peaceful in town, so the checks on those coming and going are a bit stricter.” That man sighed and continued, “You come from other places, right? Don’t take offense. We do this for the security of the town.”

　　Lonemoon understood and took one step forward immediately. Recovering his business-like smile, he asked, “No, no. This is just right. We can understand. May Big Brother tell me what exactly happened in town?”

　　“Nothing other than those monsters, they reappeared.” The man sighed and said, “There has been more than ten missing in town recently, that’s why we put strict checks on passes. Alright, don’t you stay too long here, hurry up and go into town. You’ll more likely bump into them after dark.” After he finished, he waved a hand, urging.

　　Lonemoon couldn’t keep asking, so he dragged Shen Ying and Chef and went on in the direction of the town. Vaguely he guessed that the monsters they talked about should be in reference to demons, spirit beast, or something of that sort. And they could change into human shape. But as to why food were passes, he had no idea.

　　After reaching the town, he looked up, and realized that there were indeed remnant demonic aura in the town, but the demons had probably already gone off. He turned to a small shop showing the sign of “Selling Passes” to ask, and only then did he realize the reason. The food of demons were humans, so they usually didn’t bring any other food on them. Besides, most demons still had beast nature, they were selfish and protective of their own food, so they wouldn’t give their food to others. Therefore, they used this method to identify whether one was a real human.

　　Hearing this method, the corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched. With this method, some small demons unsure of the ways of the world could be identified at best. If one really meant to harm people, there was no way they could be recognized.

　　But thinking further, since there weren’t any cultivators in this plane yet, it was already pretty impressive that they could think of such a way. Should he feel lucky that they had Chef in their party? Or they would probably be thought of as colluding with the monsters.

　　The three spent a whole day walking around the town and got to roughly understand the situation of the human race over here. Back when Hong Meng separated the human race, he only considered the chaos with the divine race, but forgot that in this world there were still demon beasts, fiends, etc. Therefore, the human race lived quite dangerously. Their biggest advantage was probably their numbers. If they encountered a different race, they had close to no power to resist.

　　Just like that demon who had already eaten more than ten people in this town. If the humans really encountered it, they may not be able to overcome it in a fight. The eventual solution would be simply to move away from here.

　　So the best solution to solve this problem was to teach the humans to cultivate, so that they had the power of self-protection when they faced demons and monsters. Which meant that they had to continue running the school. Maybe they’ll have to open a second branch.

　　“Father Niu, are we putting up an advertisement again?” Yi Qing asked subconsciously.

　　“Of course we have to put up… Wait, what are you pulling out the sword for?” Seeing that Chef called out his sword habitually, Lonemoon hurried to stop him.

　　“I thought we are putting up advertisement?” Yi Qing’s head tilted. [1. the Chinese character for “put up” in “put up an advertisement” is the same as the character for “beat”] “Come and tell me, who are we beating this time?” I’m in charge of beating, you are in charge of advertisement!

　　“Who said anything about beating? No, the “putting up an advertisement” I talked about doesn’t mean fighting! Hello?” What are you so excited for?

　　Yi Qing was stunned. Didn’t they beat up the divine race last time?

　　“Such things as fighting is only suitable for the divine race.” Lonemoon gave him a stare. “How can cultured people like us pull out swords so easily? Not even if you change it to a cooking knife!”

　　“What should we do then?”

　　“Let’s follow the old rules and set up a sect first!” Humans are supposed to be much easier to teach than divine race. After all, people who lived under the shadows of demons and monsters all year long should be more easily cheated… no, recruited.

　　“Okay.” Yi Qing nodded. He thought about it, and then took out a map and said, “This is a map of the human race I asked from Hong Meng when we left. If we need to set up a sect here, we can choose the location based on this map.”

　　Lonemoon took it over and looked. Indeed, it was the whole look of this separated continent. It was surrounded by the sea on all sides, isolated in the whole plane. He didn’t choose anywhere inside the continent, but an immortal mountain along the coast.

　　Seeing that he had chosen it, Yi Qing continued, “I took a newly born immortal vein from under the mountain when I came out. If we are to set up a sect, we can plant the immortal vein here.”

　　“Hmm. This place has long been isolated, its spirit qi is too thin as compared to other places indeed.” Not to mention the land of divine race which had God Power everywhere. “That’s not bad of you to think of getting an immortal vein… Wait!”
