The Danding Peak Outer Hall disciples looked at one another. They did not know what was going on. Li Shun hated Junior Master Lin so much, and yet Junior Master Lin was magnanimous enough to forgive Li Shun. But what was the point of both of them entering the room?
Could it be? Could it be...?
The disciples shook their heads. How could they even think of such a filthy thing? If Junior Master Lin were to find out, he would skin them alive!
Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, a shocking scream suddenly resounded in the Nine Heavens.
Something happened?
Everyone was shocked. Just as they were about to head up to check, Lin Fan walked out of the room.
"Hais, too bad you're not." Lin Fan sighed regretfully.
So he had been overthinking things. How could there be such a thing as a loser's comeback in this world?
But Junior Disciple Li had it tough. To have suffered two consecutive blows in his life, be it his body or heart, he must have been severely damaged.
Everyone looked at Junior Master Lin and heard the shrill cry. Their faces turned pale and they retreated in fear.
Lin Fan shook his head and walked forward.
After Lin Fan left, everyone walked up carefully. Looking at the trembling Li Shun lying on the floor, they took in a deep breath.
Senior Brother Li had suffered yet another blow.
Li Shun felt as though the sky had fallen on him. He had lost all hope in life. Even though he had experienced this pain once before, this time around, it was even more unbearable.
"Junior Master, Junior Disciple will never do it again …!" The grief-stricken Li Shun was already terrified. He no longer dared to be impudent. The moment he entered the house, his Junior Master, who had been behaving normally, suddenly said some baffling words to him. But in that instant, Li Shun's face darkened.
When a foot that seemed to be able to split the heavens and earth flew towards him, he knew that he was going to be in for a tragedy. And just as he had expected, he was really going to be in for a tragedy.
...
Lin Fan had gathered quite a number of herbs from Danding Peak. Some of the higher tiered herbs were looted by him as well. Looking at the pained expressions of the disciples, Lin Fan chuckled. This was what their Senior Elder wanted them to do. Even if they were pained, there was no use.
In the end, Lin Fan went back contentedly.
Tomorrow, he would be going on a long journey with the main group of the sect. He had to refine some special pills just in case he had no other choice but to use them to protect himself.
For this long journey, Lin Fan set a small goal for himself, and that was to break through to mid-level Xiantian realm.
It would be even better if he could improve further.
...
At night, the Nameless Peak was brightly lit. Many houses were lit up. Even though there was no one around, the entire Nameless Peak was lit up, and one would not feel lonely at all.
At this moment, Lin Fan was diligently studying alchemy in his room, refining the elixir he needed.
Zhang Ergou and Feng Bujue carried the dishes into Tian Yu's room.
Right now, Tian Yu had been cultivating day and night for the sake of returning to his peak. Now that his Junior Master's disciple had arrived, he naturally stopped his cultivation and welcomed him warmly.
"Senior Brother Tianyu, let's have a good drink today." Zhang Ergou smiled as he placed the dishes down, and filled his cup with alcohol, "I got this from an outer sect Junior Brother who specializes in brewing. It's good wine!"
"Alright, let's not go home until we're drunk." Tian Yu and Zhang Ergou were already familiar with each other. Naturally, there was no hint of falsehood in his words.
The three of them drank and chatted merrily. After drinking cup after cup of strong alcohol, their faces were flushed red, and they were clearly tipsy.
"Look, Nameless Peak is getting better and better. The hard work we've put in these few months has not gone to waste." Zhang Ergou said, slightly tipsy.
"That's right." Feng Bujue nodded.
Tian Yu did not feel much about it. He just felt that it was not easy for Nameless Peak to turn out this way.
"Senior Brother, actually, sometimes, I think how great it would be if I could return to the outer sect." Feng Bujue changed the topic quietly.
"You wish to return?" At this moment, Zhang Ergou, who was originally smiling, suddenly had a cold expression on his face. His tone gradually became a little unfriendly.
But Feng Bujue did not feel it, and continued to ramble on.
Even though Tian Yu was tipsy, he could feel the change in the atmosphere. Just as he wanted to change the topic, it was too late.
"That's right. It's great to return to the outer sect. There are many people there, and it's lively …" Feng Bujue smiled.
"Shut up." At this moment, Zhang Ergou burst forth with the authority of the Big Senior Brother of Nameless Peak, "Junior Brother, have you drunk yourself silly? How could you say such things? If the Grandmaster were to hear this, wouldn't he be disappointed?"
"Junior Brother Zhang, calm down. Junior Brother Feng must have had too much to drink. It's just an unintentional remark." Tian Yu tried to mediate.
These two were just fine a moment ago. How did they get into a fight just like that?
"Senior Brother, that's where you're wrong. I'm just saying. Moreover, Nameless Peak is one with the sect. Isn't it the same no matter where we go?" Feng Bujue held Tian Yu back as he spoke to Zhang Ergou.
PIAK!
Zhang Ergou smashed the wine glass in his hand onto the floor, causing the wine to splatter all over the floor. His tone was filled with anger, "That's right, Nameless Peak and Glory Sect are one family. But you can't say such words! Our Grand Master has done us a great favor. Back when you were humiliated, he helped you regain your dignity and brought you into Nameless Peak. And now you want to leave Grand Master? Do you think that this place is no longer suitable for a dragon like you?"
The more Zhang Ergou spoke, the angrier he got. He was even on the verge of striking out.
"What's wrong with you two? Why are you fighting all of a sudden? Junior Brother Zhang, you're wrong too. Junior Brother Feng was just saying. And Junior Brother Feng, why are you talking about this? Aren't you trying to find fault with your Senior Brother? " Tian Yu held the both of them back in case they got into a fight. Why did these two people who were usually so close to each other suddenly start a fight?
"That's right, Senior Brother. I was just saying. I'm not a heartless person. Why would I leave? "Feng Bujue replied.
"Hmph, Senior Brother Tian Yu, you be the judge. Master has given us a new lease of life. Even if we were to return to Glory Sect, we would just be one of the millions of disciples. No one would care about us. But here, Master treats us like family. Now that he's grown up and wants to leave, don't you think he's worse than a beast?" Zhang Ergou's eyes were bloodshot. "Senior Brother, I'm just saying.
How could I leave? Master has given me a huge debt of gratitude. Furthermore, Glory Sect and Nameless Peak are one big family. It doesn't matter where I stay. I might as well stay where I'm happy. Besides, I have Senior Brother and Senior Brother Tian Yu accompanying me at Nameless Peak. How could I leave? Furthermore, Nameless Peak is still developing. I can't leave either. I'll disappoint Master! "Feng Bujue's neck was flushed red.
"Hmph." Zhang Ergou snorted coldly, "No more drinking. Senior Brother Tian Yu, I'll take my leave now."
Looking at his Senior Brother getting angry, Feng Bujue panicked and chased after him, "Senior Brother, please listen to me …!" As he walked out of the house, Feng Bujue turned back to Tian Yu, "Senior Brother, I'll take my leave first."
"Yes, don't argue. Explain things to your Senior Brother." Tian Yu said absent-mindedly. The intense argument between the both of them had moved him a little.
Tian Yu sat at the table, looking at the dishes before him. He then drank alone. Perhaps they were right. Even if he returned, he would still be one of the tens of thousands of disciples. Now that Junior Master Lin had given him a new lease on life, if he were to leave just like that, what would that mean?
Within Zhang Ergou's house …
The both of them stopped arguing. Looking at each other, they raised their eyebrows and whispered, "How was it, Senior Brother?"
"Yes, you did well this time round. You've improved tremendously." Zhang Ergou chuckled. The argument between the both of them tonight was all an act. It was all for the sake of getting Senior Brother Tian Yu to stay.
"Hehe, this is the most detailed strategy written by Master. Senior Brother, let's hurry up and take a look at it. What's the next step? If I have the time, I'll have to practice it myself as well, just in case something goes wrong." Feng Bujue felt that his performance just now was really outstanding. Especially his facial expressions, they were all on point. It was just that there was something wrong with his voice. It wasn't intense enough, and it wasn't deep enough.
But now that he was this strong, he had improved quite a bit.
