“Um…”

Lu Xiaoran was rather speechless.

“Tell me what happened first.”

“Wuwuwu… they assigned me a huge ugly woman. She’s even uglier than our Heaven Demon Sect’s blacksmith master, Elder Huang. She disgusts me to death and even planted two hickeys on my neck. Wuwuwu…”

“Can’t you get a different girl?”

“That woman refused to let me get another girl. She said that it wasn’t easy for her to get work. I said that I would pay her what I promised, but she still refused to let me leave. After that, she even gave me two hickeys. She said that if I didn’t allow it, she wouldn’t let me go.”

Lu Xiaoran: “…”

“Can’t you just leave by force?”

“I wanted to, but that woman is an elder of the Acacia Faction and an expert at the first level of the Mountain Sea Realm. Wuwuwu, I can’t beat her.”

Lu Xiaoran looked at the fairy beside her.

The fairy said apologetically, “I’m really sorry. That’s an elder of our Acacia Faction. Us disciples have no right to manage him. If Master Li really feels wronged, you can also file a complaint.”

“Where can I do that?”

“You can go to the Great Zhou Imperial City and the Acacia Faction headquarters. However, our Acacia Faction is a proper entertainment and leisure place. You can only complain about their massage skills, not their appearance… Therefore, there have been no violations. Even if you complain, you won’t be able to do anything.”

Lu Xiaoran: “…”

This much was expected from a big company that had a monopoly.

The other similar sects in the Great Zhou Empire were basically small sects. Some of them did not qualify and were even cleaned up by the officials of the Great Zhou Empire. Basically, the Acacia Faction was the only one that dominated.

Therefore, Li Daoran was completely speechless today.

Lu Xiaoran patted Li Daoran on the shoulder and consoled,

“Let’s forget about it this time. We won’t lower ourselves to their level. In the future, we won’t come to the Acacia Faction again.”

Li Daoran said angrily, “That’s right. In the future, even if I don’t get to touch a woman in the future, I won’t come to the Acacia Faction again!”

“Alright, let’s hurry back to the sect. We’ve been out for most of the day. I wonder if the sect already carried out the array formation assessment.”

“Let’s go!”

Li Daoran left the Acacia Faction angrily. When the two of them arrived outside the Acacia Faction, Fang Tianyuan immediately approached.

“Master.”

Li Daoran was stunned. He pointed at Fang Tianyuan and said to Lu Xiaoran, “Xiaoran, this is…?”

“This is the disciple I just took in. His name is Fang Tianyuan. Tianyuan, this is Li Daoran, your Uncle-Master.”

Fang Tianyuan immediately cupped his hands and said, “Greetings, Uncle-Master.”

“So you’re my martial nephew. Tsk tsk, you’re indeed worthy of being a disciple that my Senior Brother Lu has taken a fancy to. Look at this talent. In the future, I think you’ll at least be able to cultivate to the Mountain Sea Realm.”

The corners of Fang Tianyuan’s mouth twitched.

He was currently at the first level of the Mountain Sea Realm.

However, the other party was his senior, so he couldn’t expose him on the spot and embarrass Li Daoran.

“Thank you for your praise, Uncle-Master Li.”

“Yes! Not bad, you’re quite humble. Here, take this greeting gift.”

In the next moment, Li Daoran took out a small storage bag and handed it to him.

“Thank you, Uncle-Master.”

Fang Tianyuan received the storage bag and swept his thoughts over it. Immediately, his hair stood on end.

It was actually 6666 high-grade spirit stones.

Hiss!

Wasn’t this gift a little too generous?

Were the people of the Heaven Demon Sect all so generous?

Previously, his master had casually taken out an Essence Restoring Pill.

Now, his Uncle-Master Li even casually gave away 6666 high-grade spirit stones. Even in the Ancient Ape such a gift would still be considered as generous

Looks like there were indeed many experts in the Heaven Demon Sect!

As a mere first-level Mountain Sea Realm cultivator, he decided that he should keep a low profile from now on.

It was also because he had now become Lu Xiaoran’s disciple.

Li Daoran had obtained 200,000 high-grade spirit stones because of Lu Xiaoran and was thinking of repaying him.

If it were anyone else, it would already be generous of Li Daoran to give away 6 high-grade spirit stones.

At this moment, a few figures suddenly rushed over from afar.

They were all wearing the Heaven Demon Sect’s elder and disciple uniforms.

The person in the lead was Lu Xiaoran and Li Daoran’s old friend, Lin Jie.

“Daoran, Xiaoran, I’ve finally found the two of you.”

“Lin Jie, why are you here?”

Lin Jie’s expression was solemn.

“The two of you are really careless. How could you guys come to the Acacia Faction to fool around before the elders could even check the array formation? Something big has happened in the sect.”

Li Daoran was shocked.

“What happened? Could it be that the mountain gate was attacked and the array formation has failed?”

“That’s not it.”

“What else could it be?”

“First Elder, Elder Huang, and some other disciples are all trapped in the sect-protecting formation.”

“What?!”

Li Daoran was so shocked that his jaw almost fell off.

“Are you kidding me? Can’t they break through that formation?”

Lin Jie rolled her eyes at him angrily.

“Even I had to use the sect’s life-saving array to teleport out to find the two of you. Do you think I’m joking?”

“Damn! Old Lu, aren’t you too awesome?”

Lu Xiaoran touched his nose and was somewhat speechless.

He had only used 50% of his strength. He did not expect that even the First Elder would get trapped.

It seemed that he had still underestimated the strength of his array formation and overestimated the strength of the people from the Heaven Demon Sect.

However, that was not right. After all, didn’t they have a token?

The intelligent Lu Xiaoran had already thought of something.

“Let’s not talk about this first. I told you to give the token to your disciple. Did you not do as I said?”

Li Daoran scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

“I thought you were just repairing the array formation. In any case, the repaired array formation would be similar to the previous array formation. It’s impossible for the elders to not be able to pass through. Moreover, I was too anxious and didn’t have the time to pass it on.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a few more figures rushed over from a distance.

These were also elders from the Heaven Demon Sect. After arriving, they shouted breathlessly,

“Hah… ha… I’ve finally found the two of you. Hurry up and return to the sect. Something big has happened.”

Li Daoran was confused.

“What is it now?”

“The sect master just came out of seclusion and tried to test the sect-protecting formation. He broke through the third layer but was injured by the attacking formation in the second layer. He’s now trapped in the second layer.”

“What? Even the sect master got trapped?”

As soon as Li Daoran finished speaking, another group of people from the Heaven Demon Sect rushed over.

“Something bad has happened. The Grand Elder and a few other elders have also come out of seclusion and also tried to break through the third and second layer. In the end, they were trapped by the illusionary array of the first layer. Now, the entire sect is in a mess, waiting for the two of you to return and save them.”

“Ah? No way? Even the Grand Elder can’t pass? What a joke! The Sect Master and the Grand Elder are both top-notch experts at the Shattering Void Realm.”

Lu Xiaoran glared at him angrily.

“How dare you say that, you idiot. If we go back now, we’ll probably have to be punished.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately rushed towards the sect.

The others immediately followed.

Fang Tianyuan also followed, but a storm surged in his heart.

Originally, he thought that his master might be an expert at the Shattering Void Realm. However, it now seemed that his master’s cultivation level had probably far surpassed the Shattering Void Realm!

Just what was his master’s cultivation level?
