Chapter 59: The Secret of the Xiong Village’s Strength—Fake

The one who came to the Little Qiong Peak was Liu Yan’er, Li Changshou’s companion when he went to the North Continent.

Shortly after Liu Yan’er’s arrival, two more senior brothers came after her.

Under the willow tree, Lan Ling’e purposely showed an embarrassed look, thinking that these three had left earlier.

However, at this moment, the two senior brothers were neither giving way to the other. There was a scorching smell in the air.

What should she do?

She really didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business, especially those that had nothing to do with her senior brother.

Three of them, who were strangers to her, were sitting on each side of the short table that she had moved over.

The one sitting across from Lan Ling’e was the first to arrive, a Senior Sister of the Du Lin Peak, Liu Yan’er.

Lan Ling’e had thought that this new senior sister, who had come to find Li Changshou, was a ‘dangerous person’ just like Senior Sister Youqin. However, after they had chatted for a while, Lan Ling’e realized that she had misunderstood her.

This senior sister was obviously looking for Li Changshou for some serious business.

It all started seven years ago at the Priming Meet when Senior Sister Liu Yan’er had fallen in love with Senior Brother Wang Qi, who had gone to the North Continent with her.

After returning to the mountain, the two of them used cranes to send letters and exchanged glances, and their affection gradually grew stronger.

Recently, Senior Sister Yan’er and Senior Brother Qi had a plan to cultivate together. They decided to go to the Bai Fan Hall to officially register themselves as Dao companions, and they cultivated together on the Du Lin Peak or Little Ling Peak.

However, nobody had expected that Liu Yan’er’s junior brother, someone from the Du Lin Peak, on Lan Ling’e’s left side, Liu Sizhe, would suddenly step out.

He was against this marriage!

He had been secretly in love with her for 100 years.

Ever since Liu Sizhe had entered the sect from a young age, he had always been following behind his gentle senior sister, who had the same surname with him, and called her ‘Senior Sister’, ‘Senior Sister’.

Gradually, the young man had worries. He had a pretty girl in his heart.

However, Liu Sizhe felt that his cultivation level was not as good as his senior sister, so he couldn’t protect her. He kept this thought in his heart, cultivated hard, tried to get enlightened, and gradually stood out in the sect.

Liu Sizhe was now the disciple who ranked sixth in the sect. He had already reached the Sixth Stage of the Void Return Realm, had received a treasure bestowed by the sect, and had teachings handed down from the Peak Leader of the Du Lin Peak.

Surprisingly, when he wanted to express his feelings to his senior sister, he saw his beloved senior sister was about to be led away by a fellow disciple from the Little Ling Peak!

When Liu Sizhe immediately stepped forward to express his feelings to his senior sister, Liu Yan’er was shocked at the time but rejected Liu Sizhe right away.

“Junior Brother, I have always treated you as my closest junior brother.”

Liu Sizhe was unhappy with that. He kept questioning Liu Yan’er about her affair with Wang Qi and even invited the latter to a private fight.

Junior Brother Qi Qi…

Wang Qi, who was from the Little Ling Peak, was not weak either. Ever since his return from the North Continent, his cultivation level had broken through successively, and he had restrained his wanderlust a lot. Now, he had just cultivated to the Sixth Stage of the Void Return Realm, and his ranking had been raised to the eighth.

After Wang Qi asked Liu Yan’er about it, he fully respected her opinion and did not agree to the fight.

As a result, things became more and more deadlocked, and Liu Sizhe and Wang Qi did not give way to the other at all.

These days, it even caused a confrontation between the Du Lin Peak and Little Ling Peak disciples, provoking a reprimand from the sects’ elders.

This matter had to be resolved as soon as possible.

On this day, Liu Yan’er came to the Little Qiong Peak with no other reason than to find Li Changshou, who had traveled with them at that time and ask him to testify about it.

This way, he could explain to Liu Sizhe how Senior Sister Yan’er and Junior Brother Qi Qi had fallen in love at first sight.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Liu Yan’er arrived, Wang Qi and Liu Sizhe caught up with her from behind, resulting in such an awkward situation.

Lan Ling’er also felt slightly distressed as she looked at the short table that was almost about to be blown apart by the anger of the two.

It was made by Senior Brother himself.

“Senior Brothers?”

“Eh?”

Two serious, dignified faces looked over at the same time, and Lan Ling’e drew her neck back.

Lan Ling’e said with a smile, “Can the both of you wait aside? We ladies have some words that are inconvenient to be overheard by you guys.”

Liu Sizhe and Wang Qi both looked towards Liu Yan’er, who had a helpless and urging gaze.

Suddenly, these two stood up and walked towards the side of the lake.

Wang Qi, however, was very considerate and made a Dharma boundary under the tree.

Upon seeing that, Liu Sizhe also walked back and made another thicker, stronger layer on the periphery of the boundary.

Their eyes met, and they turned hostile.

Inside the boundary, Liu Yan’er felt overwrought.

“Senior Sister Yan’er, my senior brother has gone to break off his ties with the mortal world. He won’t be back for at least another year.” Lan Ling’e paused and reminded her, “You can find Senior Sister Youqin to discuss this matter.”

“I went there earlier.” Liu Yan’er sighed lightly. “Junior Sister Youqin is in seclusion, and I don’t dare to disturb her. Only Junior Brother Li Changshou would have a say in this.”

Lan Ling’e was a bit puzzled. “But what if my senior brother proves that you have fallen in love at first sight?”

“This junior brother of mine is very inflexible,” said Liu Yan’er with a bitter smile. “He now thinks that I’m using Junior Brother Qi Qi as a shield to not delay his quest for immortality.

“But I really…

“What should I do? I went to Martial Aunt Jiu’s side and asked her too. She’s also in seclusion.

“Junior Brother Changshou is not here either.”

Lan Ling’er was just about to tactfully express that this had nothing to do with the Little Qiong Peak.

Before she could compose her language, she suddenly felt that the earth seemed to have trembled.

When she looked up, she saw that the two senior brothers were already ‘wrestling’ with each other’s legs in the open space in front of the straw hut!

Because the sect forbade disciples to fight privately, one needed to report to the Bai Fan Hall in advance in the case of any enmity, and the sect would arrange a method to break the enmity.

As immortal seedlings, Wang Qi, and Liu Sizhe were very restrained at this time.

They just put their respective left feet forward and touched with it their knees. Their eyes were as if they were trying to devour someone!

Liu Yan’er raised her hand to cover her forehead for a moment, not knowing how to express goodwill.

Lan Ling’e blinked. This situation… was similar to the way the spiritual beasts in the beast pen at the back of the mountain competed for a mate!

Lan Ling’e laughed softly in her heart and made up her mind.

She got up and walked out of the boundary, shouting to the two, “Stop fighting! You guys can’t kill the other by fighting like that!

“Um, no.

“Please note, Senior Brothers. Disciples are forbidden to fight in private in the sect, and this is also the Little Qiong Peak.

“Since the two of you are here, why don’t you follow the Little Qiong Peak rules? No matter who Senior Sister Yan’er chooses in the end, you guys have a competition here first to see who is better.

“What do you think?”

The two of them jumped away from each other. Although their knees were in severe pain, they both acted as normal and nodded their heads.

Liu Sizhe asked, “What rules?”

“My senior brother loves to brew wine.” Lan Ling’e smiled slightly. “I will invite the two of you to taste it.”

A few moments later…

With two clanging sounds, Wang Qi and Liu Sizhe lay on the short table. The wine jar in their hands dropped, even though they had only drunk one-third of the contents.

After all, it was the diluted Beauty’s Charm that Jiu Jiu used.

Liu Yan’er gently exhaled and smiled gratefully at Lan Ling’e.

However, she had no intention to leave right away.

“Senior Sister Yan’er, I have a method that might help you make a decision.”

Lan Ling’e felt helpless and motioned for Liu Yan’er to lean forward a little before she whispered something in her ear.

Liu Yan’er said with a frown, “Will that be okay?”

“It’s just to make Senior Brother Liu back out of an awkward situation. If he can even accept someone else’s children, we can think of other ways.” Lan Ling’e winked. “But remember to tell Senior Brother Wang Qi and find someone to witness it in advance, lest your reputation is tarnished, Senior Sister.”

“I understand! If this matter can be accomplished, it’ll be all thanks to you!”

Liu Yan’er got up excitedly and made a Dao salute. Lan Ling’e waved her hand at once.

Soon, this senior sister used two clouds to take the two drunken junior brothers into the air and drove the clouds towards the direction of the Du Lin Peak.

“Seriously. They have to find my senior brother for everything. Is he that free?”

Not knowing what trouble she had caused, Lan Ling’e snorted softly. She took a handkerchief, took this short table to the side of the lake, and carefully cleaned it.

‘Should I tell Master to go to the Du Lin Peak to watch the fun? Forget it. It’s better not to cause any trouble, or else Senior Brother will definitely scold me again when he comes back.’

“Stupid Senior Brother! What’s wrong with bringing your junior sister with you to sever ties with the mortal world? I’ll even kowtow on behalf of you!

“Seriously…

“When I do that In the future, I’ll drag you there even if you don’t want to go! Hmph!”

…

In a valley near the Heaven Number Six Spiritual Meridian 1,000 kilometers southwest of the gate of Immortal Du Sect.

Li Changshou woke up from his meditation and murmured with his eyes at ease, “I wonder if Ling’e is in trouble.”

His cultivation realm was strengthening. Although his cultivation level hadn’t improved, his strength was growing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

After checking the spider webs put around him, as well as the small warning arrays everywhere, Li Changshou changed to another rock cave and continued in seclusion.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed since he had arrived at the surroundings of the Immortal Du Sect.

Although he was just outside the sect, he did not want to go back too early. In addition to the three years of visiting his parents’ grave, he also had to consider the time spent on the journey back so that he could do something that a disciple at the Fourth Stage of the Void Return Realm should.

During the three years that they did not return to their sects, the immortal seedlings from various peaks should improve a stage or two in their cultivation realm, right?

He could just keep up with the mainstream disciples while showing himself at the Fourth Stage of the Void Return Realm. He could enjoy most of the treatments as a disciple and not receive too much attention from the sect.

The closer it got to the day of returning to the mountain, the more troubled Li Changshou felt.

As the saying went, “A man without money is no man at all.”

His current assets were seriously incomparable to his own cultivation realm.

He had been in a similar situation when he played games in his previous life and got a huge gift pack but didn’t get any good equipment that he could use.

Where could he get some precious materials?

Little Qiong Peak’s complex array formation would require many precious materials if he wanted to modify and improve it.

To improve his own means of defending against an enemy, he also needed many precious materials.

It would be nice if he had an endless supply of Spirit Stones to spend.

Li Changshou quietly pondered with his chin on his hand.

He had actually had a devious idea to open a small branch at the side of the Immortal Du Sect’s spiritual mine, and the problem of the Spirit Stones would be directly solved.

However, Li Changshou felt that this was truly improper.

After all, the Immortal Du Sect had been grooming him for so many years. Now that he was a bit stronger, he was going to dig into the spiritual mine of his own sect?

He was no longer taking the wool from the sect, but directly digging for mutton.

“Take a walk at the nearest marketplace? Sell some of the poisonous immortal pills?”

Li Changshou gave it some thought but then felt that going out like that was unnecessary.

He was now a little suspicious that he might have a constitution to cause trouble.

During the Tribulation Transcendence, he had miscalculated that the Heavenly Dao would miscalculate. He had gone through the Heavenly Tribulation twice and incurred Heavenly Punishment.

He had been seriously injured by the Heavenly Punishment and fled towards the west by getting inside a fish’s body.

Because at that time, the shadow of a man, who he discovered had come to his place of Tribulation Transcendence, had come from the east.

In the end, a huge fish like that could even be fished to shore by a mortal!

He had come across the Xiong Village and ended up with the Sea God’s name.

He had his original face at that time, and all his own disguises had been destroyed in the Heavenly Tribulation. The god statue that had been built by the Xiong Village a year ago was his original face.

If he took the initiative to go to the marketplace, which was mixed with bad elements, wouldn’t that cause more trouble?

Oh, that was right. His god statue should have collapsed, right?

Since he did not manifest it, it would definitely have collapsed.

Li Changshou predicted with his fingers, and he froze. Then, he felt helpless.

‘Damn it! Ahem. An immortal shouldn’t swear.’

What was going on?

How had there been more than 100 of his god statues?

His incense merit had unconsciously gotten so much?! It was much more than killing one great demon!

What was going on?

Because he carried some objects that blocked the divine prediction, he had to take the initiative to predict for him to sense where the ‘believers’ were worshiping him.

‘It couldn’t have…

‘Could it be…

‘Is it possible that…

‘Village Chief!

‘I know the secrets of those groups of strong people in the Xiong Village! They have been praying to a Sea God every day!

‘After praying to this Sea God, not only would their bodies become stronger, but they would also reap double the harvest when fishing out in the sea! There were no illnesses or disasters, so it was accurate!’

“Hurry! Let’s do one too!”

The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched madly as he mentally recreated this image.

What… What should he do?

If he said that he really didn’t want to rob the Western school of its incense merit, would they believe him?

What kind of poison could get rid of a Saint?

Was he being downhearted now?!

Li Changshou tilted his head, and a small shadow flew out of his opened mouth, but he was shocked to the point that his Primordial Spirit went out of his body. However, then he sucked it back hard.

‘Think of a way! I have to think of a way!’
