All Chapters of Slightly Lazy, Evil, Carefree Cultivator (Book 1): Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Ren was currently outside under a tree. His Followers a safe distance away. Two-handed over the Pot she acquired. It was not for her but a gift she wanted to give to Ren. The small gesture made him happy inside. Just for that, he promised to help with anything she wanted once. The young one was quite happy with that arrangement. "Now, to "Bind" and "Refine" an item to yourself." Ren had the Dragon Pot & The Upgradeable Pot, from Reap out. "The slow route is the best route. Gives you the chance to make sure it goes well and the chance to set up protection in place." Ren had several Formations setup near him. One to Drain if there was excess Ion Energy that leaked out from the items. One to pull any wayward Souls inside. One to block any outward weather phenomenon. "Do they have to be this precise?" Three asked looking at the triangle setup of the Formations. Her eyes looking them over as each were done perfectly distance-wise

However, they were also used to put people in strange patterns to boost Ion attacks. Battle support help really for the desperate.Inscriptions could do both and also had the use of turning permanent after heavy application. Think a tattoo artist. An extreme pain to remove. Most people just called Inscription as the main and the other two as the lower level of the same field. Ren was part of that mindset group. Despite his old age, he was stubborn.Flying the mountain just a bit higher to pull in more Ion Energy. That Ion energy was then used to power the defenses and Gateway for the place. It would take some time before Ren changed everything up.Ren would add additional layers later on. Thinking about One at the office, he looked at Three and gave her a seal to allow her to enter the place. Then he sent her to collect One when he finished."You got it, Master Ren!" Three answered promptly and left. Like Two and Four, she was starting to gain Ren's favor

-A week later- . Ren and company had moved out to the "Shoreline" with a steady pace. Mo Lan had broken through and was currently at the Reformation Realm Rank 1. Her confidence was something to behold. Her breakthrough also shook the mountain. Good thing for the protection set up. Only individuals who knew were Ren and Elder Kung that she had such power. The Lan clan had made a little trouble with the group made it out of Sect territory. But a few words from Elder Kung made them shut up real quick. They were suprised he recovered and was so strong. Even though he discarded the Lan family name, several people in the clan wanted him to return. Using bribery and even intimidation towards the little girl Mei to do so. After a few broken bones from Three and Zero robbing them of their resources, they relented. With the brand Ren placed on her, she was pretty hidden. The traveling was a good time to get her bearings back. Despite her setbac

-Sometime later- . Another three hours passed before Ren stopped. He shook his pant legs free of the soil and his shirt that was around his waist. Gathering another large chunk of soil into his bags, he walked back to the others. Looking to a small mound of soil, he blew on it. *Woosh!* The soil parted revealing the disciple who threatened his Follower earlier. He was covered in scars and had purple mist leaving his clothing. His Ion energy was almost spent from protecting himself. Ren had put a "brand" on him for spying later. It was the only reason he still lived. "Haaa, I wonder if we can leave early to get a good meal back home?" Ren asked out loud. Mo Lan looked at him and forced a smile out. She was quite unnerved by the use of the sand. As well as Ren walking around without his shirt on. She was quite the one for modesty, despite what she had to do to live. Mo Lan and Three got long well in that regard. "No matter, I think I will take a nap."

"Huh, you came back to see if they were here? How nice of you." Ren smiled towards the incoming guards. 'Are those guests still on the way?' He thought to Reap. Reap System: Yup. They will come at a decent enough time. Like right now actually. Quest: Protect those who are loyal. Your reward... I am not saying specifically. It will be even better when you get it. Hehehe.. you will like it. A few of the guards were surprised the princesses were not here. The Lan guards assumed they would make it back and try to enforce the barrier with some of their life-saving devices. They would then come in and feign helping but kill them instead. Traveling around asking for help would have given a good alibi with saying the barrier broke when asked later. "So you fixed it. Should have stayed where you were. This will be your grave now." The 1st Lan guard raised his hand. This signaled the others to attack. "What are you talking about? You cannot kill him. He
