I Just Want to Live a Good Life, but I Surpassed the Protagonist – 71 Dismemberment
From Noble mtl dot com
On the third day after returning from the Black Water Secret Realm, Ye Yong was summoned by the sect master. That was the first time he had seen the sect master. He was a handsome middle-aged man, and there was nothing about him that made him seem superior or difficult to approach. Instead, he felt very gentle. Based on his appearance alone, he didn’t seem like a powerful cultivator at all. Instead, he looked like a sunny male model.
The sect master was very straightforward, and he didn’t ask Ye Yong too many questions. He directly gave him a lot of functional magic weapons and talismans. It was just that the relationship between the sect master and Ye Yong couldn’t be considered close after all. They weren’t related by blood, nor were they master and disciple. No matter how advanced the magic weapons and talismans were, there was a limit to them. As the sect master, he simply felt that Ye Yong was a disciple with a promising future, and being able to give him these things was already considered very attentive.
Ye Yong wasn’t a greedy person either. Although the items the sect master had given him wouldn’t be of any use against enemies above the Nascent Soul stage, free things were always great. Coupled with what the Ye family elders had given him , he had specially prepared a storage ring to hold magic weapons. At this moment, there were already enough magic weapons in the ring to rival some of the medium-sized sects. However, to Ye Yong, who had a system, they were still nothing special.
After meeting the sect master, Ye Yong didn’t go out again. He stayed home every day, taking pills and cultivating, and time quickly arrived at the beginning of the next month. He had also reached the peak of the nineteenth level of foundation establishment, and he was about to break through.
On the sixth, he had to go to the Sword Pavilion Hall to meet Qin Shimeng’s master. On the seventh, he had to go to the Liang family for a banquet. Ye Yong felt that as long as he finished these things, he could concentrate on forming his crystal core.
He went to the Sword Pavilion Hall and the Liang family as a guest. Although the main purpose was to thank Ye Yong for saving their lives, as a humble and talented person, he couldn’t neglect his manners. Therefore, Ye Yong had to prepare some gifts.
In the Black Water Secret Realm, Ye Yong had used traps to kill many demon beasts, more than twenty at the Nascent Soul level, more than a thousand at the Golden Core level, and thousands at the Crystal Core level.
The relationship between human cultivators and monsters was actually similar to the relationship between humans and animals on Earth. The number of animals that ate humans was even less than the number of animals that humans captured. Therefore, monsters hatched humans to a certain extent . They felt that humans were too greedy.
In fact, that was true. In the world of cultivation, humans could be said to be the race with the most enemies. There was nothing that human cultivators didn’t dare to provoke, whether it was flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the sea. In order to become stronger, cultivators could be said to have explored all sorts of methods.
Therefore, even though the Black Water Secret Realm had been exposed as a trap to kill human cultivators, it didn’t cause much public anger. After all, the contradictions between humans and other races were already not small. Killing humans was nothing. Humans had been exterminating some spirit beasts and monsters all day long.
Ye Yong wouldn’t get caught up in these contradictions. This was a world where strength was everything. If the human race wasn’t strong enough, they would be hunted and killed by other races. In any case, to him, as long as they could communicate and be friends, it didn’t matter what race they were. For those with low intelligence who couldn’t get along, even if they were human, he wouldn’t show mercy.
He chose two Nascent Soul-stage monsters and ten Golden Core-stage monsters as gifts and came to the Dismemberment Hall on the first peak.
The Dismemberment Hall wasn’t far from the Contribution Hall. It was a special hall with very few members. New members were only recruited once every few decades, and the selection process was very strict.
The bodies of spirit beasts and demon beasts needed to be dismembered in order to obtain various materials more easily. However, dismemberment involved a lot of specific knowledge and techniques. Ye Yong didn’t want to deal with corpses too much, so he didn’ t spend any reversal points to buy the corresponding books to do it himself. Instead, he chose to leave it to professionals.
Ye Yong could be said to be a household name now. He was the true Ye Tianjiao of the Eastern Continent. As soon as he entered the Dismemberment Hall, even the hall master came out to receive him in person.
The hall master of the Dismemberment Hall was a Nascent Soul Grandmaster in his fifties. When he saw the huge monster corpses that Ye Yong had taken out, his expression couldn’t help but change.
The other members of the Dismemberment Hall were even more shocked. They were so shocked that they couldn’t speak.
“Nascent Soul attack, killed with one blow.” The hall master carefully observed the wounds on the monster. “Moreover, there are no signs of any resistance…”
Hearing the Dismemberment Hall master’s murmur, Ye Yong couldn’t help but look at him twice. Professionals were professionals. They could even see the clues.
If it weren’t for the Demon Locking Formation, Ye Yong wouldn’t have been able to easily kill these demon beasts and preserve their bodies.
In front of professionals, Ye Yong felt that it was better to say less, lest he leave behind any clues. He had already colluded with Qin Shimeng and Liang Xiaorou about what had happened in the secret realm. They claimed that they had lost consciousness and didn’t know what had happened. Ye Yong vaguely said that it was a magic weapon and technique given to him by his elders and the sect master that had defended against the demon beast.
If the people from the Dismemberment Hall asked him for details about how he had killed these monsters, Ye Yong would have to make up another lie about a Demon Locking Magic Weapon. The more lies he told, the harder it would be to cover them up. Ye Yong wouldn’t dig a hole for himself.
“I’ll have to trouble the hall master and the other senior brothers with the dismemberment. I don’t understand these things. As for the dismemberment fee, please charge me normally. There’s no need to give me any special treatment.” He then asked when the dismemberment would be completed. After receiving an answer of about a month, Ye Yong left the Dismemberment Hall. He didn’t say anything else the entire time.
The disciples still wanted to get close to Ye Yong and chat about his experiences in the secret realm, but seeing how anxious he looked, they all started to bury their heads in their work.
The two Nascent Soul-stage monsters were personally dismembered by the hall master.
The more he dismembered, the more shocked he became, because the two monster corpses were preserved very well. Other than the wounds, there were no damaged parts. The fur was perfect material, and it could be used to make several pieces of armor .
“This must have been
Having lived for several years, the Hall Master of the Disassembly Hall, despite noticing the disharmony, did not intend to interfere. After all, sometimes interfering in others’ affairs would only bring trouble to oneself.

In the evening, Ye Yong counted the materials he obtained after dismantling the monster. The most valuable was undoubtedly the demon pills.
The two Nascent Soul Stage demon pills were of great value. One was given to Qin Shimeng’s master, and the other to the Liang family. It was significant enough but not beyond his means, neither too much nor too little.
In addition to the demon pills, there were also animal skins, bones, teeth, and claws, which were all materials for weapons and armor. Animal blood, meat, and organs could be eaten or used as medicine or alchemy materials.
High-level spirit beasts and monsters were treasures from head to toe. It was not without reason that humans coveted their bodies.
Using these as gifts, Ye Yong could not guarantee Qin Shimeng’s master, but the Liang family would definitely be pleased. After all, if the elders could not use them, the younger generation could.
After a day’s work, Ye Yong wiped the sweat from his brow and looked at the large and small gift boxes in front of him. He could not help but sigh, “Why does it feel like I’m meeting the parents?”
