(Previously, Han Cang Zi addressed him wrongly … It was a mistake, a mistake. She should have called second senior brother second uncle master. There was a difference in seniority …)
"Call me uncle master!"
"You impudent brat. Didn't your Master tell you my seniority? Besides the few old men in the sky, who else in Freezing Sky Clan is more senior than me? "Even the preceptor has to call me uncle master. You're of the same seniority as the preceptor, don't you know how to address me?
"You little brat, how dare you offend your elders? Let me see, you've broken the second, fifth, and seventh rules of the school." Tian Xie Zi yawned and spoke lazily on the ninth summit of Freezing Sky Clan. There was a lackadaisical tone to his voice. It was not as deep as the purple-red robed old man's, and it did not travel too far either.
The old man in the purplish-red long robe looked as calm as ever as he stood calmly in the air and looked at Tian Xie Zi standing at the top of the ninth summit. If he had any choice, he would not have come to the ninth summit. It was not because he respected the rumors about Tian Xie Zi, but because Tian Xie Zi's status was simply too high.
After a moment of silence, he wrapped his fist in his palm towards Tian Xie Zi.
"I am Ting Long Zi. Greetings, uncle master."
"Hmm, that's more like it. When I came up the mountain, you probably weren't even born yet. You can't be so impudent. Next time, you have to be more careful, understand?" Tian Xie Zi stroked the beard on his chin and nodded at the old man in the purple-red robe in satisfaction.
"Then uncle master, please send my disciple out. I want to take him with me." The old man in the purple-red robe spoke slowly, as if he did not hear Tian Xie Zi's words.
"What? Do you have a different opinion about your second senior brother's punishment for your disciple?" Surprise appeared on Tian Xie Zi's face.
The old man fell silent. He had no choice but to accept this reality. Because of Tian Xie Zi, the seniority of the people in the ninth summit was much higher. For example, the young man who had injured his disciple. This person … was indeed of the same generation as him …
As for whether he was a senior brother or a junior brother, it was hard to tell in a short amount of time.
"Tian Xie Zi, I don't have time to waste on you. I'll only ask you one thing. Are you going to let Zi Che go or not?!" The old man frowned and his expression gradually turned cold. He had already shown his courtesy. Even if he said those words now, it would still be acceptable.
"Ah, are you trying to scare me? I won't let go, I won't let go, I won't let go! "Tian Xie Zi glared, revealing a domineering aura.
The old man snorted coldly with a gloomy expression.
He did not attack, but his cold harrumph was like a clap of thunder, causing the entire ninth summit to tremble. The weather changed, the wind and clouds tumbled backwards, and fine cracks spread out on the layer of ice on the ninth summit.
Tian Xie Zi's eyes widened. He took a few steps back from the top of the mountain and let out a mournful scream. That mournful scream was enough to make anyone who heard it feel pity.
Hu Zi was in his cave abode. He had brought Zi Che back a long time ago, and at that moment, he threw him to the side. He squatted down beside Zi Che and drank wine while smiling viciously and maliciously.
Hearing Tian Xie Zi's miserable voice, Hu Zi raised his head and looked at the rock wall above the cave with a strange expression.
"Keep pretending, you old thing … Don't think that your Grandpa Hu … Er, don't think that his Grandpa Hu doesn't know that you're wearing white today."
That mournful scream spread through the entire ninth summit and also reached second senior brother's ears, who was sitting beside Su Ming. Second senior brother had his head lowered and was fiddling with the plants before him, looking as if he did not hear anything.
"Master, I saw that you're wearing white today …" Second senior brother shook his head with a gentle look on his face, as if he was talking to the plants before him in a low voice.
At the same time, at the bottom of the ninth summit was the basin located in the depths of the cracks in the ice. The place was originally quiet, but at that moment, a faint murmur traveled forth.
"Master, you should be wearing white today …" That voice belonged to eldest senior brother.
Tian Xie Zi screamed and retreated at the top of the ninth summit. When he saw the old man in the purple-red long robe walking towards him from the air, he quickly let out a shrill cry once again.
"Young Tiger, save me! I promise I won't ask for wine from you anymore …"
Hu Zi drank a mouthful of wine in the cave abode and glared at Zi Che before him. He slapped his head, causing Zi Che to shudder. He glared at Hu Zi in anger.
"Hmm? How dare you glare at your Grandpa Hu like that?! I'll kill you!" Hu Zi seemed to have found a way to stop himself from thinking about his Master's screams. He stretched out his hand and slapped Zi Che's head once again.
Once Tian Xie Zi shouted a few words from the top of the mountain, he saw the old man getting closer and stepping on the ninth summit. The moment his foot landed, the ninth summit let out a violent rumble.
"Second, second … If you still don't save Master, then I'm telling you, I'll tear down all the plants on the mountain!"
Second senior brother sat by Su Ming's side as if he did not hear anything. He continued caressing the plants before him and whispered softly to Su Ming.
"If you want to tear them down, then so be it. I'll just plant them after you're done. It's fine … don't you think so, youngest junior brother?" Second senior brother lifted his head and looked at Su Ming, who had his eyes closed, and smiled faintly.
The old man in purple robes from the second summit was looking at the screaming Tian Xie Zi coldly from the top of the mountain. He frowned, lifted his right foot, and took a step forward.
"Eldest disciple, what the heck are you doing? Why are you still in isolation? All you know how to do is isolate yourself. Your Master is about to die. If you still don't come out, then I'll have Young Tiger warm up your wine every day!"
The basin in the depths of the ninth summit was still silent. Eldest senior brother, who chose to isolate himself here, also pretended that he did not hear anything and immersed himself in his meditation.
However, Tian Xie Zi's voice was simply too shrill. After a moment, a sigh came from within the basin.
"Master, stop fooling around …"
That voice echoed within the basin and gradually spread out. In the blink of an eye, it echoed through the entire ninth summit and fell into Hu Zi's ears, causing his lifted hand to freeze.
When it fell into second senior brother's ears, a glint appeared in his eyes.
It also fell into the ears of the old man walking towards Tian Xie Zi. The old man's footsteps came to an abrupt halt, and his heart started pounding uncontrollably against his chest. His expression instantly changed, and at that moment, a layer of hot air appeared out of nowhere on his body, causing the air around him to instantly distort.
However, he was not the one who caused this. Instead, it was the sound that formed a wave of ripples around his body that caused his heart to tremble.
Faint roars of ferocious beasts seemed to be echoing within the distortions around his body. However, no one else could hear those roars. Only the old man could hear them clearly, and the appearance of that sound caused a grave expression to appear on his face.
"The Sound of Creation!" The old man's pupils shrank.
However, that sound only appeared for an instant before it gradually disappeared. The distortions around the old man's body also disappeared without a trace.
The moment Tian Xie Zi heard that sound, delight appeared on his face, but soon, anger appeared on his face when the sound disappeared.
"Bastards! Three bastard disciples! If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have taken in any disciples in the past! You didn't help your Master at such a crucial moment! I'm so angry!
"Heh, you little brat, don't force me! I'm telling you, if I attack, you'll immediately run away in a pathetic manner!" The white-robed Tian Xie Zi placed his right hand into his bosom and looked at the old man in purple robes. A stern expression gradually appeared on his face.
As his expression turned stern, a mighty pressure slowly gathered on his body, causing the old man in purple robes, who had been shocked by the Sound of Creation, to also become solemn.
He had originally thought nothing of the ninth summit. In fact, it could even be said that this was the first time he came to the ninth summit. However, the series of events that happened just then made him remember the rumors about the ninth summit that had been circulating around Freezing Sky Clan.
"If uncle master let my disciple go, then I'll immediately leave and never step foot into the ninth summit again. If not, then I'd like to see whether the rumors about uncle master are true! "It's just the Sound of Creation, it's nothing." The old man in purple robes remained silent for a moment before he spoke in a low voice.
As he spoke, the old man in purple robes walked towards Tian Xie Zi. His footsteps were not quick, but as he walked forward, an increasingly stronger presence spread out from his body. There seemed to be faint illusions manifesting in the sky, and they were rapidly becoming corporeal.
"You forced my hand! Eat my Enchanted Treasure!" Tian Xie Zi took a few steps back once again and brought his right hand out from his bosom. There was an item in his hand — a plate.
The instant he brought out the plate, pride appeared on Tian Xie Zi's face. He waved the plate at the old man.
"How dare you, lad! Do you know what this is?!"
As Tian Han Zi shouted, the old man in purple robes came to an abrupt halt. He looked at the plate in Tian Xie Zi's hand. The plate was entirely purplish black and exuded a pure, freezing aura. It did not look fake, and no one in Freezing Sky Clan would dare to fake it …
When he remembered Tian Xie Zi's status in the clan, the old man's expression gradually changed drastically. Sometimes it was sullen, sometimes it was aggrieved, and sometimes it was resigned. All sorts of expressions fused together and turned into a long, complicated sigh.
He wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed deeply towards Tian Xie Zi.
"I, Ke Long Zi, greet the Clan Master's plate. The one who holds the plate is the same as the Clan Master coming personally. I naturally recognize him."
"Hmph, why did you force me to bring out this plate? Let me tell you, I was the one who used this plate to snatch the ninth summit in the past. Didn't your Master tell you?
"Oh well, looks like you're not your Master's favorite disciple, or else he would have told you about something so important. I think you're quite pitiful. How about this? Just give me a few million stone coins, and I won't hold it against you for offending me," Tian Xie Zi said arrogantly with his head lifted and chest puffed out.
The old man in purple robes' breathing quickened and veins gradually popped up on his face. However, when he saw the plate in Tian Xie Zi's hand, he forced himself to endure it and wrapped his fist in his palm towards Tian Xie Zi.
"Yes, Master." Once he finished speaking, he immediately turned around and turned into a long arc that charged forward. In an instant, he left the ninth summit. He was afraid that if he moved any slower, he would not be able to suppress the aggrieved feeling in his heart.
At that moment, he finally understood why his peers rarely went to the ninth summit. It was especially so for the Lords of the summits. Most of them would choose to avoid the ninth summit, and Ke Long Zi rarely paid attention to other things. He might be a powerful Berserker of Freezing Sky Clan and a member of the second summit, but he was not the Lord of the second summit. Besides, he had been staying in the Great Tribe of Freezing Sky for a long period of time. It was only during the past few years that he gradually moved to this place.
The moment he left the ninth summit, Su Ming, who was sitting on the platform, slowly opened his eyes.
"I'll have to disappoint all of you. Today and tomorrow will be the first chapter … Today is the sixth of the month. I'll be playing outside with my daughter while I look for a place to write.
At night, I'll be watching a movie with my daughter. Tomorrow is the sports day in her kindergarten. She really wants me to go and perform with her.
"There are 365 days in a year where I can let her not bother me for 362 days, but there are three days where I can't. One of them is her birthday, the other is the sixth of the month, and the last one is the sports day she's going to perform with her father.
"Please forgive me. "(To be continued. "If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
