53: Good disciple, come on!

Chapter 53: Good Disciple, Go!

Since she decided to create the Club, everyone had been pessimistic, including the elders of her Family.

In their eyes, creating a Club in a small place was unrealistic.

Even the Dojo and her Master’s sect adopted an ambiguous attitude; they didn’t object but also didn’t offer any support.

But she simply refused to believe in such evil!

At this moment, Master Wang Fengnian’s sponsorship was like a shot in the arm for her, strengthening her belief.

“Master Wang, don’t worry,” Xue Lingling said with high spirits, “my Ghost King Club will not disappoint you.”

Wang Fengnian smiled without a word and walked away.

The hustle and bustle faded, and the people left, leaving behind a sense of emptiness.

Only the Club members remained in the vast Club.

The grand scene just now seemed like nothing more than a play.

“Haha, I have good news for everyone,” Xue Lingling announced with a beaming face, “just now, our Club successfully secured its first sponsor! Applause~!”

Upon hearing this, the members were also pleasantly surprised and applauded continuously.

“This is a good omen, indicating that the prospects of our Club have been recognized,” Xue Lingling continued to proclaim, “but this is only the beginning. In the future, our Ghost King Club will definitely become synonymous with Yaoyang City!

Let’s all work hard—!”

Everyone’s morale was boosted, and their eyes were filled with anticipation for a bright future.

“Oh, right, let me introduce someone to everyone,” Xue Lingling motioned for Wu Xian to come closer and introduced him to the crowd: “His name is Wu Xian, an Apprentice Scroll Master. He’s my proud Disciple and will serve as our Club’s Vice President.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue erupted in an uproar.

Du Yifan was even more dumbfounded. An Apprentice Scroll Master? A Disciple?

The other members, on the other hand, were full of doubt and skepticism.

“Auntie, when did you take on a Disciple?” a young man who had just graduated from university in the team asked in surprise, “Why didn’t you tell the Family about such a big matter?”

“Does your Grandma need the Family’s permission to take on a Disciple?” Xue Lingling shot him a cold glance. “When I was building the Club, why didn’t I see them give more sponsorship? Every one of them was crying poor, hmph!”

“But…” Xue Qingyang awkwardly fell silent.

“Anyone who has an opinion can come out and fight. If you can’t win, then shut up,” Xue Lingling knew it would be difficult for Wu Xian to gain everyone’s respect by suddenly joining, but might makes right. “Good Disciple~ Go! Otherwise, they’ll think you’re freeloading.”

Wu Xian was speechless, caught between laughter and tears.

Good heavens, does Shifu-jie handle things so simply and crudely?

“Whoever can defeat him will be the Vice President. I, the President, keep my word,” Xue Lingling said calmly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Club members were eager to try.

After all, Wu Xian looked like he had just graduated from high school, appearing quite easy to bully.

Even if he had obtained an Apprentice Scroll Master certificate, he shouldn’t be that strong yet.

“Brother Zhou, go~ What are you waiting for?”

“The position of Vice President belongs to Brother Zhou!”

“If you become the Vice President, everyone will definitely have nothing to say.”

“Brother Zhou has already condensed a divine scroll. Crushing him should be a piece of cake, shouldn’t it?”

Everyone’s gaze simultaneously focused on Zhou Qi.

In fact, before Wu Xian appeared, everyone had already implicitly agreed that Zhou Qi would be the future Vice President.

However, facing the encouragement and instigation of the crowd, Zhou Qi remained exceptionally rational and calm, “I have no opinion. Whoever wants to go, go.”

Are you kidding? The scene of that big rooster directly attacking the mother nest was still vivid in his mind.

Wouldn’t his Nether Centipede just be asking for trouble by going up there?

“…”

The members were dumbfounded on the spot.

They couldn’t understand why Zhou Qi would back down.

Could it be that the President had already spoken to Zhou Qi beforehand?

“No one has any objections, right?” Xue Lingling’s eyes playfully scanned the crowd. “Then this Vice President position is settled.”

Everyone looked at each other, hesitating.

Zhou Qi having no objection didn’t mean they had no objection.

“Auntie keeps her word?” Xue Qingyang enthusiastically stepped forward, “Then this nephew must give it a try.”

Seeing Xue Qingyang voluntarily step forward, the Club members instantly became lively.

Nephew against Disciple, a battle of connections against connections. Now there was a good show to watch.

Crucially, Xue Qingyang had fought his way up, and everyone highly recognized his strength.

“…” Xue Lingling’s forehead darkened, “Go, go, go, why are you joining in the fun?”

But she couldn’t stop her grand-nephew from actively seeking a beating.

“I’m also a Club member, so why can’t I participate?” Xue Qingyang stretched his muscles and shot a provocative look at Wu Xian. “Everyone’s watching.”

Xue Lingling sighed helplessly. She was truly a bit speechless about this grand-nephew who was only a few years younger than herself.

“Go easy,” Xue Lingling waved her hand, seemingly annoyed, “my elder brother only has this one heir.”

Wu Xian smiled knowingly and slowly stepped forward.

He looked Xue Qingyang up and down. Indeed, he bore some resemblance to Xue Lingling, but compared to Xue Lingling’s underworld-style makeup, he at least looked a bit more normal.

“Please enlighten me~!” Wu Xian raised his hand as a gesture.

“Auntie’s Disciple, so he must be of the Undead System as well, right?” Xue Qingyang exuded the confidence and arrogance of a Family scion. “Have you ever heard of my Xue Family’s Undead System scroll Legacy?”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and tossed out a scroll. Level four spiritual power surged, and his Aura was intimidating.

A silver scroll with gold edges, clearly an original Legacy scroll.

Then, under Wu Xian’s curious gaze, the scroll unfolded in mid-air, transforming into a dense Yin Qi and fierce Aura.

In the gloomy, fierce mist, a malevolent ghost gradually emerged. Its hair stood on end like steel needles, it had a blood-red face and sharp fangs, and its entire body was wrapped in a colorful, tattered garment.

“A four-star painting spirit, and its spiritual fluctuation doesn’t seem low.”

Wu Xian secretly made a judgment and immediately released Black and White Impermanence to respond.

Although [Black and White Impermanence] were only bronze scroll three-star, their five-dimensional rating was strong enough, and they had the advantage of being the [original].

Most importantly, they were a perfect match for the job!

It was a pity that Ox-Head and Horse-Face hadn’t been brought out yet; otherwise, it would have been an even better match, as our Master Ox and Master Ma specialize in malevolent ghosts.

As soon as Lord Wuchang appeared, Xue Qingyang was immediately startled.

As the saying goes, experts see the intricacies, while laymen watch the excitement. As an Undead System Spirit Master from a prominent Family, he could naturally sense the extraordinary qualities of this pair of twin Undead System painting spirits.

The other Club members, however, were mostly curious and amazed by the underworld appearance of Black and White Impermanence.

“What kind of ugly thing is that? It’s too hideous, isn’t it?”

“Well, Undead System scrolls are usually ugly, but I have to say, this guy’s scroll is quite unique.”

“No wonder the President took him as a Disciple; this vibe is just right~!”

“Tsk tsk, an original scroll with gold embroidered edges. I just wonder how strong it is?”

“It’s only bronze scroll three-star, but Xue Qingyang’s [Brutal Fierce Spirit] is already silver scroll four-star.”

Based solely on Rank and Level, everyone had already concluded Wu Xian’s defeat.

Only Zhou Qi’s eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty. “Isn’t it the big rooster? How did it become an Undead System scroll?”

Does that mean this guy has more than just that one original scroll?

At the same time, the field was already filled with gusts of Yin wind, and a great battle was about to erupt.

Accompanied by a piercing shriek, the Brutal Fierce Spirit attacked first, its ferocious and terrifying claws seemingly wanting to tear everything apart.

Had it been any other Undead System painting spirit, it would have been intimidated by this Aura long ago, but Wu Xian’s two painting spirits, one black and one white, remained unusually calm.

White Impermanence swung the Soul-Summoning Banner in her hand, and the shrieking Brutal Fierce Spirit was suppressed by an invisible force, its Aura sharply diminishing.

Immediately after, Black Impermanence flung out a dark chain, wrapping it around its waist.

“Hiss~ Such a strong fierce Aura!”

Wu Xian also felt the power of the Brutal Fierce Spirit immediately. The Soul-Summoning Banner and Soul-Restraining Chain seemed a bit unable to suppress it.

It could only be said that the Family’s Legacy scroll still had some substance, not to mention its advantage as a silver scroll four-star.
