111: Chapter 111 Fang Yuan: Finally, it's time to introduce Senior Qin to my family!
Wangyue Sect.
After attending the lecture given by the Dharma-propagation Deacon, Xiao Chang walked out of the Dharma-propagation Peak along with a group of Outer Sect Disciples of the Wangyue Sect.
"I wonder how Brother Qin is doing……"
Walking down the mountain, Xiao Chang thought to himself.
Ever since his Ice-Fire Spiritual Body was discovered in front of the Xiao Family gates, he had been brought back to the Wangyue Sect and accepted as a Disciple under its banner.
Originally, given the Aptitude of his Ice-Fire Spiritual Body, he should have entered the Inner Sect of the Wangyue Sect directly and become a Disciple under an Elder.
However, Nangong Yueqing—that is, the silver-haired, red-eyed Senior Sister who had brought him back to the Wangyue Sect—went against all opposition and arranged for him to stay in the Outer Sect of the Wangyue Sect.
Her reason was: He came from a small place and was not yet familiar with the rules of the Sect.
If he entered the Inner Sect directly, it might violate the Sect rules.
Therefore, she decided to let him cultivate in the Outer Sect first, prioritizing understanding the Sect's etiquette and broadening his horizons regarding the Dao of Immortality.
Naturally, Xiao Chang completely obeyed Nangong Yueqing's arrangement in this regard.
Firstly, he was grateful for Nangong Yueqing's kindness in recognizing his potential.
Secondly, because… Nangong Yueqing was the final closed-door Disciple of the Seventh Elder of the Wangyue Sect, so even if Xiao Chang wanted to object, he could not.
Furthermore.
Xiao Chang was very much looking forward to finishing his studies and going down the mountain to amaze Brother Qin.
When Brother Qin fell into a crisis, he would make a sudden, formidable appearance, relying on his formidable strength and methods to solve all of Brother Qin's problems in one fell swoop.
This would not only repay Brother Qin's saving grace, but also make Brother Qin look at him with new eyes and even be amazed by him.
But he also knew that he was currently still in the embryonic stage along the path of the Dao of Immortality.
He still lacked quite a bit of Realm and strength if he wanted to leave the Sect and travel outside.
Therefore, he was also willing to spend more time learning more things to lay a solid foundation.
"Have you heard? The Hong Family has been wiped out!"
On the way down the mountain, Xiao Chang's ears twitched as he overheard the gossip and conversations of the surrounding Outer Sect Disciples.
"I've heard it too! The entire Hong Family, consisting of over a hundred people, was reportedly directly massacred by an unknown Immortal Cultivator!"
"What's more, that Immortal Cultivator even used a Formation for disguise, creating the illusion that the Hong Family hadn't been wiped out yet!"
"Indeed! I heard it too! If Deacon Hong hadn't taken advantage of the Sect's holiday to make a trip back to the Hong Family and discovered the abnormalities at home, no one would have known that the Hong Family had been wiped out even until now!"
The Hong Family was just gone like that?
Hearing this, Xiao Chang, who had just entered the world of Immortal Cultivators, was instantly deeply shocked.
Hong Yungui, who had previously visited his Xiao Family in Qinghua County and threatened to kill Brother Qin because Brother Qin snatched away the Black Water Demon's prey, was precisely a member of the Hong Family.
Not long after Xiao Chang entered the Outer Sect of the Wangyue Sect, he heard that Hong Yungui relied on the fact that he was a member of the Hong Family and had a clan uncle serving as an Outer Sect Deacon in the Wangyue Sect.
He ran amok and acted imperiously and arrogantly within the Outer Sect.
At this moment, he never expected that the Family behind this long-arrogant Hong Yungui had actually been directly wiped out by someone!
Among the hundred or so members of the Hong Family, apart from Hong Yungui and that Deacon Hong, not a single person survived!
"He who commits many injustices will meet his own destruction! Serves him right!"
Thinking of this, Xiao Chang cursed inwardly.
This Hong Yungui had indiscriminately claimed that he wanted to kill Brother Qin back then, which was truly hateful.
Now that his Family had suffered this calamity, it was only fitting!
Without the backing of the Hong Family, let's see if this Hong Yungui would still dare to continue acting arrogantly and imperiously in the Outer Sect.
Xiao Chang cursed a couple more times, continuing to listen to the conversations of the Outer Sect Disciples while walking down the mountain.
"Have you heard? There's quite a bit of movement over at the Hundred Demons Cave. It seems a demon is trying to promote itself to a Demon King, but it's being suppressed by other Demon Kings……"
"Zuigen Tower has a special discount today. Let's go, I'll treat you and take you to Zuigen Tower to play some good games with Fairy Fenbao……"
"Have you heard? In that Lingzhu Market we visited before, an Immortal Cultivator Family was also wiped out by someone! It is said that the person who wiped them out was a Martial Cultivator, and he even brought along a wolf demon……"
"A Martial Cultivator? A wolf demon?"
Xiao Chang's sharp ears twitched, and he listened closely to the conversation of this last group of people.
Ahead, a male and a female Outer Sect Disciple were chatting. The female Disciple was recounting the matter of a Family being wiped out in the Lingzhu Market.
As for the male Disciple, he wore a look of disdain:
"Pfft! To be wiped out by a mud-legged Martial Cultivator, I'd say that Immortal Cultivator Family has also reached its end. What do they even call themselves an Immortal Cultivator Family? They simply disgraced the face of us Immortal Cultivators."
Hearing this, the female Disciple cast a dissatisfied glance at the male Disciple:
"Tch! You're nothing more than an Alchemist, yet you're bringing up mud-legged Martial Cultivators! What qualifications do you have to look down on Martial Cultivators?!"
Seeing that the female Disciple was displeased, the male Disciple quickly apologized:
"Wan'er, that's not what I meant! I wasn't talking about that Martial Cultivator younger brother of yours! I was talking about that Martial Cultivator in the Lingzhu Market you mentioned!"
"As a Martial Cultivator, that guy actually dared to commit the act of slaughtering an Immortal Cultivator Family. He is simply arrogant to the extreme. At first glance, he comes from a mud-legged background, and sooner or later he's going to get butchered by someone!"
"I am talking about that Martial Cultivator, not your younger brother. Listen to me……"
Chasing after the female Disciple who turned around with a cold snort and walked away, the male Disciple hurriedly explained.
Behind them, Xiao Chang narrowed his eyes as he watched their backs.
That night.
Having finally coaxed the female Disciple back with gifts, the male Disciple walked out from the female Disciple's Immortal Cave.
The male Disciple wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Phew~ This woman is really hard to coax—"
Bang!
Before he could finish muttering to himself, a burlap sack was suddenly slipped over his head from behind.
With the sack covering him, the male Disciple could see nothing, only feeling a flurry of random cudgels greeting his head.
Beating him until his entire head was covered in lumps, causing him endless pain!
While beating him, the person who ambushed him shouted in a voice that was obviously disguised:
"Take that for belittling Martial Cultivators! Take that for belittling others! Take that for calling people mud-legs!"
Thump, thump, thump!
The cudgels rained down like raindrops, beating the male Disciple so that he wailed loudly and could only hug his head with both hands to protect it.
Hard-withstanding a dozen or so strikes, the male Disciple gritted his teeth, found an opportunity, and fiercely ripped the sack off his head:
"Who—"
Before his voice trailed off, and before his gaze could clearly see who had ambushed him, a handful of quicklime was suddenly scattered onto his mouth, nose, and eyes.
"Pain, pain, pain, pain!"
The irritation brought by the quicklime hurt the male Disciple so much that he jumped around wildly all over the ground, and immediately after, his body was once again crazily greeted by a flurry of cudgels.
Not knowing how long had passed, when the male Disciple finally recovered from the state of his eyes being blinded by quicklime:
Around him, there was only the moonlight pouring down.
The assailant who had beaten him until his head was full of bumps had already vanished without a trace.
...
The sky grew bright as the morning sun rose in the east.
Warm and gentle sunlight sprinkled across Tianying County.
Mortal commoners followed the sun out of their homes and began to busy themselves with their chores.
Meanwhile, atop a small hill outside Tianying County, two people and one demon stood quietly.
"Senior Qin, we have arrived. Ahead is Tianying County!"
Fang Yuan's gaze shifted gradually from the entrance of the county city gates of Tianying County to the Fang Family courtyard within the county city, her eyes filled with joy.
After three days of traveling, finally… she had finally brought Qin Muyuan to Tianying County where her Fang Family was located!
Sitting on Wangcai's back, Qin Muyuan heard the call and came out of the time-acceleration state.
To him, rushing from the Lingzhu Market to Tianying County in Daliang Country was simply a matter of closing and opening his eyes.
Therefore, he didn't have any excessive practical feelings, and merely said:
"Alright, let's go find your father and clan brothers."
"Yes! Senior Qin!"
Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Fang Yuan continued to lead the way ahead.
She was very certain.
When they saw Senior Qin, her father and clansmen would definitely be very ha—pp—y!
