CHAPTER 416: CHAPTER 277: HOPEFUL SECOND GENERATION IMMORTALS_2

[Stomach Ache]

Ma was sold out by his own father, Old Ma...

Seeing the situation, Ma knelt again, "Sect Leader, I stayed because I lost the draw. Li Jue said that after they settle down, he wants me to escape halfway on the road to the Qinghe Association and join them."

"I am not talented and was originally a vanguard, deceiving the Xinhe United Victory on behalf of the Old Sect Leader."

"Go play somewhere else, it’s not like you’re really splitting the family." The Old Sect Leader was amused by Ma and waved him to get up.

"Ma." Old Sect Leader Li thought for a while and then said, "Go call those who didn’t leave, the ones with decent cultivation."

"Yes, Sect Leader, may I boldly ask, what are you planning?" Ma was perceptive, sensing something in the Old Sect Leader’s words.

"Those little rascals ran away, but someone has to join the Qinghe Association. Call them over; I’ll personally train them for a few days. I only have one requirement: whenever you see someone from Xinhe United Victory at the Qinghe Association, beat them up!"

Ma’s eyes lit up, and he exchanged glances with the few companions who lost the draw and stayed behind, all feeling lucky. Didn’t catch the fun, but got such benefits.

"Move quickly!" the Old Sect Leader Li said.

"Understood!"

Ma and the others responded, then transformed into several streaks of green light and flew away.

"And you lot." After those little rascals left, Old Sect Leader Li turned to the elders.

"Those who ran away, deduct fifty years of salary from each, and add that portion to yours. Also, if there are any decent disciples under your sect, bring them along this time."

After Old Sect Leader Li finished speaking, the council chamber was filled with flattering voices.

"Old Sect Leader is wise!"

...

Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Zhuge yawned, lacking energy.

But he couldn’t go back to sleep because the Celestial Masters were still fussing, discussing his little master uncle’s departure from home again.

He had no choice but to be there because he was the third candidate for the next Sect Leader of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Originally the second, but due to the sudden rise of Senior Brother Zhang and Sect Leader Tang’s sudden illness, Zhang Ze’s name was engraved on the Dragon Tiger Mountain’s iron scroll, becoming the Grand Elder, pushing him to third place.

However, he didn’t mind at all.

Being Sect Leader seemed troublesome just thinking about it; lying in bed and being carefree sounded better.

Listening to the adults endlessly argue, he yawned again.

Sitting across from him, Li Guanqi watched Zhuge’s demeanor with some envy.

But envy was one thing; he dared not yawn now, as that behavior would only add fuel to the fire.

Helpless, he could only bow his head and sip his tea.

He felt recently he was clashing with Dragon Tiger Mountain; last time he came not only lost thirty years of salary, but his disciple also became the sect brother of Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Sect Leader.

This time, discussing Earth Vein Transmission matters at Dragon Tiger, things were fine until he was about to leave, but ended up being held back.

Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Little Sect Leader was abducted by their Sword Sect people.

After finishing a cup of tea, Li Guanqi wanted to pour himself another when he found the teapot already empty.

And the little Daoist sitting across from him also noticed this.

Seeing this, Zhuge hurriedly got up, wanting to grab the teapot and execute a Tea Water Escape. But what kind of person was Old Li? He quickly anticipated this move and grabbed the teapot first, leaving the room.

Helpless, Zhuge sat back down.

But before he could settle, the issue was turned onto him.

"Xiaoye, this time for the Qinghe Association, represent our Dragon Tiger Mountain and defeat the Xinhe United Victory, seriously teach your little master uncle a lesson."

Zhuge was about to complain but his eyes shifted with a new idea, he quickly stood up and said, "Master is right; protecting Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Tao lineage is my responsibility, but my little master uncle’s Taoist technique is refined, I’m afraid I cannot match him. To be prudent, I plan to start a retreat now."

After saying this, he stood up, bowed to his master and the Celestial Masters, then retreated from the room but immediately transformed like a monkey, shaking his sleeves and ran away, completely unlike the lazy demeanor in the room.

Once he ran down the mountain with the Heavenly Gang Step, he stopped and stretched before reverting to his lazy demeanor.

"Ah yay~ going home to sleep!"

Successfully escaping, Zhuge hummed a tune as he strolled to the back mountain, just past the bamboo forest, he spotted his little sect brother in the distance sweeping, Zhuge quickened his pace, using his hand to mess with his bun.

"Xiaoqing, have you made any progress in your cultivation lately?"

The Daoist named Wang Qing frowned impatiently, waving away his brother’s hand, "Don’t touch, every time you undo it, I have to retie it for ages."

"Listen to you, it’s like you’re saying your brother’s a bad guy."

"You are a bad guy!"

"You silly kid, your brother has a big heart, I’ll give you a gift."

Zhuge miraculously pulled out a Secret Manual from behind him, then snatched the broom from Wang Qing’s hand, pressing the manual into Wang Qing’s hands.

"Got it from outside the mountain, ’Life Hacks’."

Zhuge pointed his finger, the broom started to sweep the courtyard automatically, then pointed at his head, and his slightly messy bun instantly became neat and tidy.

"How about that, impressive huh."

Zhuge continued to tousle Xiao Wangqing’s head.

"Average, static meditation and sitting are both cultivation, how can you rely on external means, hey! You..."

Before Xiao Wangqing finished his sentence, his bun was undone and tangled into a mess by Zhuge, and after doing all this, Zhuge’s figure flashed and appeared ten meters away, made a face at Xiao Wangqing, laughed heartily, and left.
