4: Chapter 4: Pretending to be cool is all about bluffing, and Butler Fu was fooled and frightened.
Jiang Xiaobai boldly shouted at Steward Fu, which made Steward Fu, who was excited, pause, his expression stiffening in place.
Meanwhile, Xiao Man and Guo Guo both looked at Jiang Xiaobai with shock.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai immediately put on an act and said,
"A mere beast dares to eat me!? When Revered Master returns, he'll surely skin you alive."
Jiang Xiaobai's mind raced, everything he had heard and seen since arriving at Qingyun Sect flashed through his mind.
Steward Fu and the other two trembled involuntarily after hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words.
"Jiang Xiaobai, what did you just say? You're that Old Thing's new Disciple?" Steward Fu clearly didn't believe him, his gaze fixed on Jiang Xiaobai.
"Otherwise, why do you think I dared to come to Qingyun Sect alone? And why do I know you're a beast, an ancient Taotie!"
Jiang Xiaobai was extremely nervous at this moment, afraid that he wouldn't be able to bluff this beast, in which case he would be finished.
Every step was crucial; he had to act completely calm, without a hint of panic.
Steward Fu's eyes were full of doubt, constantly scrutinizing Jiang Xiaobai, and even Xiao Man and Guo Guo were staring at Jiang Xiaobai.
"Sect Master has taken on a new Disciple again? Why didn't he take me!?" Xiao Man suddenly yelled at Jiang Xiaobai, her expression extremely agitated, which surprised Jiang Xiaobai.
"System, can you check Steward Fu and their specific information?"
"Ding, yes Host."
"Good, immediately check Xiao Man's specific information."
Soon, Xiao Man's personal information, including her background, strength, etc., all appeared before Jiang Xiaobai's eyes.
Character: Gu Xiao Man
Age: 1888 years old
Strength: Great Emperor Realm Peak
Personality: Tsundere, extremely eager to be loved and noticed.
Background: Orphan, carries a great hatred for her clan's extermination.
Weakness: Likes to eat, greedy.
Goal: To become the Sect Master's Disciple of Qingyun Sect, and avenge her clan's extermination.
Jiang Xiaobai's mouth gaped open, his gaze constantly scrutinizing Gu Xiao Man, somewhat shocked.
"Jiang Xiaobai, I'm asking you a question? Why did he take you as a Disciple and not me?"
"It's been 1880 years, I've been in Qingyun Sect for 1880 years, and he still refuses to take me as a Disciple, why, why is this!?" Jiang Xiaobai watched Gu Xiao Man scream hysterically at him, he took a deep breath and said pretentiously:
"Gu Xiao Man, you... your obsession is too deep, your heart only holds hatred, how could Revered Master take you as a Disciple?"
Buzz!
Jiang Xiaobai's words were like a clap of thunder, not only exploding in Gu Xiao Man's mind, but also affecting Steward Fu and Guo Guo.
"You really are that Old Thing's new Disciple!?" Steward Fu still seemed unwilling to believe Jiang Xiaobai's words, his gaze fixed on Jiang Xiaobai, his eyes full of unwillingness.
"System, check the specific information of this Taotie."
"Ding, Host, the information for this Taotie has been opened."
Fuman Restaurant: Ancient Taotie
Age: ... Strength: Sealed at the Great Emperor Realm Peak.
Personality: Bullies the weak and fears the strong, gluttonous and lazy, has a clean fetish (to a deadly degree), loves freedom!
Background: Qingyun Sect
Weakness: Gluttonous, loves to sleep, fears those stronger than him.
After looking at the information of Fuman Restaurant, the Taotie, Jiang Xiaobai's Aura suddenly increased:
"Fuman Restaurant, Revered Master set the rule that you can only eat meat once a year to help you change your gluttonous habit, and you've done very well for the past hundred thousand years."
"However... Fuman Restaurant, your other weaknesses are very obvious, it's probably impossible for you to gain freedom in this lifetime."
Buzz!
As soon as Jiang Xiaobai said this, the bodies of the three, Fuman Restaurant, all trembled.
"That's right, that's right, you're that Old Thing's new Disciple, that damned Old Thing. Didn't he say he wouldn't take any more Disciples before!? How did he take another one? And... he's a good-for-nothing without any Spiritual Root!" Fuman Restaurant was very unwilling, his tongue constantly smacking his loose lips.
Jiang Xiaobai's eyes narrowed, he scrutinized the three for a moment, then continued to act pretentious:
"Hmph! You three are good, Revered Master entrusted Qingyun Sect to your management before he left, open your eyes and see what Qingyun Sect has become now!?"
"Just wait for Revered Master to return and punish you!"
Hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, the bodies of the three, Fuman Restaurant, trembled again, their expressions complex:
"That Old Thing is coming back? Is Jiang Xiaobai telling the truth or lying?" Fuman Restaurant clearly didn't quite believe it, staring at Jiang Xiaobai with suspicion.
"Is he coming back? Is this true, Jiang Xiaobai?" Gu Xiao Man was very excited, her small jade hands constantly fidgeting with her clothes, her gaze fixed on Jiang Xiaobai.
"If he comes back, he comes back. Sect Master hasn't been back for fifteen hundred years. Even his few Disciples haven't appeared for fifteen hundred years. If I didn't know how abnormal they were, Guo Guo would have thought they were already dead." Guo Guo clearly didn't care much, his big eyes darting around slyly, occasionally stealing a glance at Gu Xiao Man.
At this point, Jiang Xiaobai could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He had bluffed Fuman Restaurant and the others. As for the Sect Master of Qingyun Sect, he didn't care.
Anyway, he had completed the System mission and successfully bound the System. From now on, the Tianxuan World was his to roam. Although Qingyun Sect was incredibly mysterious, he truly didn't put it in his eyes:
"With the System in hand, the world is mine!"
"Junior Brother Jiang Xiaobai, how did you get Sect Master to take you as his Disciple?" Guo Guo kept blinking his eyes, asking Jiang Xiaobai with a curious expression.
Fuman Restaurant and Gu Xiao Man also looked at Jiang Xiaobai with anticipation.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai began to act pretentious again:
"Of course, it was my Heaven-Defying talent that moved Revered Master. You don't know, Revered Master begged me for three whole years to take me as his Disciple."
The three, Gu Xiao Man, heard this and their eyes widened, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with some disbelief.
"How come Guo Guo can't see Junior Brother's talent? Can you show it to Guo Guo?" Guo Guo's big eyes darted around slyly, a smirk on his face, looking like he wasn't up to any good.
But Jiang Xiaobai was constantly complaining about this turtle in his heart:
"This Perverted Turtle, he's doing it on purpose, right? System, check Guo Guo's information."
"Ding, Guo Guo's information has been opened."
Guo Guo: Ancient Divine Beast Black Tortoise
Age: ... Strength: Suppressed at the Great Emperor Realm Peak
Personality: Extremely greedy for money and lustful, lewd, green tea bitch, likes to cause trouble, likes to ambush and frame others.
Background: Qingyun Sect
Weakness: Extremely lustful and greedy for money, bullies the weak and fears the strong, fears Gu Xiao Man.
After looking at Guo Guo's information, Jiang Xiaobai fell silent.
"Junior Brother Jiang Xiaobai, can you show us your Heaven-Defying talent? Guo Guo, Steward Fu, and Xiao Man are all very eager to see it." Guo Guo's sly big eyes darted around a few more times, smiling as he looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai's eyes narrowed slightly, he stared at the three of them, Guo Guo, for a moment, then said:
"You really want to see?"
The three, Guo Guo, all nodded.
"If you want to see it, you'll have to wait until Revered Master, that Old Thing, returns. After all, only the Law Power that Revered Master, that Old Thing, possesses can make my Heaven-Defying talent manifest." Jiang Xiaobai's words were like a thunderbolt, shocking the three of them.
"What!? Law... Law Power!?"
