Mind Reader? I'd Rather Quit Being Senior Brother!
Chapter 1 – Does Senior Brother have abs?
Seven Peaks of Flowing Cloud.
These seven towering peaks rise amidst swirling clouds, resembling a secret realm leading to a celestial paradise. Especially at dawn, when sunlight filters through the clouds and falls upon the peaks, the scene gains a touch of the divine, making one exclaim at the sight of such a wonderland.
In truth, this place is indeed no ordinary land.
The Seven Peaks of Flowing Cloud is the location of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
It's said that the founding ancestor of the Flowing Cloud Sect named the sect after observing the perpetual mist that enveloped the area.
However, for the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect, the mist can be somewhat of a nuisance.

For example...
"Hey, hey, hey! Someone's here, someone's here!"
"Damn! Why didn't you signal? Move aside, move aside!"
"Move my ass! How am I supposed to move?"
"We're going to crash, we're going to crash!"
"Sweet heavens!"
"Ah!!!!" *2

"Tsk, which peak's newcomer is this? Not following the Sword Control Code..."
On the nearest peak to the source of the shouting, a young man lying at the edge of a cliff heard the commotion, turned his head to look in the direction of the noise, and then shook his head with a knowing expression.
The young man was tall and handsome, with particularly clear black and white eyes that made people feel a natural affinity towards him.
His name was Xiao Lin, the Senior Brother of Green Lotus Peak in the Flowing Cloud Sect, and indeed the Senior Brother of all the inner and outer disciples of the sect.
Some might wonder, since Xiao Lin is the Senior Brother of the Flowing Cloud Sect, how could he just lie there leisurely while watching two sect disciples "fall off their swords"?
Is he really so heartless? So cold? So unreasonable?
It's not that Xiao Lin is cold-blooded. In fact, beneath the Seven Peaks of Flowing Cloud, there's a grand array set up by the sect's powerful elders specifically to catch these "falling sword" disciples.
As for why such an array exists... perhaps the elders got tired of constantly being on alert to catch people and found it bothersome.
They even issued a "Flowing Cloud Sect Sword Control Code" for this purpose, which includes but is not limited to taking turns to control the sword, signaling with a magical device when changing direction...
But I digress, let's return our focus to Xiao Lin.
As mentioned earlier, Xiao Lin is the Senior Brother of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
But besides this identity, he has another unknown identity—he is a transmigrator and possesses a system.
Although this system has only issued trivial tasks over the years, like "pick flowers on Departed Sea Peak," "fish on Snowbound Peak," or "collect ten pairs of girls' socks," which have no consequences if left incomplete, Xiao Lin has still gained some benefits from them, allowing his cultivation level to far surpass most of his peers.
Because of this, Xiao Lin's second chance at life has been quite enjoyable, spending his days cultivating, enjoying the scenery, and admiring the legs of his junior sisters from various peaks, plain yet monotonous.
He once thought this would be his life forever.
Until now.
[Your task has arrived!]
[Task Description: Resign from the position of Senior Brother of the Flowing Cloud Sect]
[Task Completion Reward: Direct promotion to the next major realm]
[Task Failure Penalty: None]
[Task Time Limit: None]
"Oh?"
Seeing the translucent screen pop up before him, Xiao Lin immediately sat up.
A direct promotion to the next major realm? Wow, they're really going big with the rewards this time. If I get promoted by a whole realm, wouldn't I become the number one among the younger generation?
Hmm, if that's the case, I can slack off for a while without cultivating... wonderful~
With this thought, Xiao Lin immediately stood up and ran in a certain direction using his movement technique.
After all, he had long found the role of Senior Brother to be somewhat troublesome, not only having to give speeches at certain events but also holding classes for sect disciples every month, which was quite dull.
Better to hand over this identity quickly, then go find the master for a handover ceremony... hmm, who should I give it to? How about Fourth Junior Sister!
***
Flowing Cloud Sect, Green Lotus Peak.
"Sigh, not being allowed to use sword control within the peak is really troublesome..."
After finding a small bamboo grove, Xiao Lin slowed down and began looking around.
As usual, his much-admired Fourth Junior Sister should be nearby...
Just as he thought this, Xiao Lin caught a glimpse of a light pink figure out of the corner of his eye.
Aha! Look what I've found!
With a tap of his toes, Xiao Lin gracefully leaped up and soon arrived behind a cluster of bamboo, where he saw a young girl curled up and sleeping soundly on a large rock.
She was petite, with delicate features, her slightly chubby cheeks soft and tender. Dressed in a light pink dress, her curled-up sleeping posture made her look like a napping kitten.
This was Xiao Lin's Fourth Junior Sister, Ning Yunmiao.
"Just as I thought."
Xiao Lin looked at Ning Yunmiao, who was sleeping sweetly, even with a trace of drool at the corner of her mouth, and nodded with arms crossed.
When it came to handing over the position of Senior Brother, Ning Yunmiao was the first person Xiao Lin thought of.
After all, among his four junior brothers and sisters, Ning Yunmiao was the one he admired the most.
Her ability to do nothing was something even he couldn't match—spending most of her day either sleeping or on her way to sleep... oh, except for meals.
He couldn't understand how she managed to keep up with her cultivation level. Could she be cultivating in her dreams?
With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Lin bent down slightly and reached out to gently shake Ning Yunmiao.
"Thanks, but I don't eat..."
Ning Yunmiao mumbled, then turned over.
"..."
Xiao Lin's mouth twitched slightly, and he reluctantly raised his voice a bit, saying, "Today's special at the Spirit Cuisine Hall is Spirit Fish Roasted with Red Jade Fruit."
"Don't touch it! Or I'll blow up the Flowing Cloud Sect!"
Ning Yunmiao instantly sat up, raising her right hand to the sky and shouting.
Then she saw Xiao Lin in front of her.
"You're going to blow up the Flowing Cloud Sect?"
"Ahem, that was... sleep talk, just sleep talk..."
Ning Yunmiao's adorable face showed visible embarrassment. She raised her hand to scratch her face, then suddenly seemed to remember something, her big, bright eyes widening as she said, "Wait, Senior Brother, why are you looking for me? Is it mealtime?"
"Not yet."
Xiao Lin raised his hand to his forehead, suddenly feeling that if he really handed over the position of Senior Brother to her, the sect might be in trouble.
"Oh, it's not mealtime..." Ning Yunmiao visibly relaxed, then looked at the young man in front of her with curiosity, "So why are you looking for me, Senior Brother?"
Hearing this, Xiao Lin was pondering how to start the conversation when he suddenly heard Ning Yunmiao's voice in his ear again.
[Speaking of which, the plot in the novel should be starting soon, right? My golden finger is finally going to be useful! But I have to be cautious, after all, not everything is written in the novel, like Senior Brother, who is clearly just a side character in the book, but unexpectedly a handsome guy... by the way, does Senior Brother have abs?]
"?"
Xiao Lin looked at his Fourth Junior Sister, who was silent but seemed to be glancing at his abdomen with feigned nonchalance, and was slightly stunned.
