Chi Xie, after being told off by Shang Lin, subconsciously wiped the corner of his mouth. Only after wiping did he realize that he had been tricked by Shang Lin. He was about to retort when Shang Lin actually went to the bathroom.

Red Scorpion glared at Xing Tian with his red eyes again, "Don't even think about making me work. I'm not doing it. And what's with showing off my chest muscles, abs, and biceps?"

Xing Tian had never seen Red Scorpion's ferocious appearance before, so he didn't take his attitude to heart. After all, in the entire sect, the person he feared the most was Ji Xiaoyao. But after spending more time with him, he didn't feel anything anymore.

Moreover, they all got along quite well with their fellow disciples, so even though Xing Tian thought Chi Xie was a bit fussy, he figured he was just a newcomer to the sect with a bit of a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) mentality, so he didn't take his words to heart.

So Xing Tian smiled very gently and said, "Since the sect leader has said that you have to work with me, then you have to follow my arrangements. But you also have to show off your chest muscles, abs, and biceps."

Xing Tian's words were tantamount to telling a man that he was inadequate in a certain unspeakable aspect. Even a demonic man like Chi Xie couldn't stand such words. He immediately lifted his shirt with even more daring than Shang Lin, revealing his perfectly sculpted eight-pack abs to Xing Tian.

It has to be said that Red Scorpion's abs really made Xing Tian and She Jinxing a little envious. She Jinxing was a little better off, but Xing Tian thought of his own pale, skinny physique when he was alive, which wasn't much better than their sect leader's, and he suddenly lost his appetite.

However, after spending a long time by Shang Lin's side, Xing Tian had more or less learned his composure. Even if her heart was churning, she would calmly say, "Since you have it, why are you hiding it? You're not a little girl. Just show it a little. Besides, we're not just showing it casually. We're dressed, okay?"

Red Scorpion was a little puzzled. He looked down at the modern casual clothes he had conjured up based on Shang Lin's style of clothing and felt that he couldn't see any abs at all!

Looking at Chi Xie's puzzled expression, Xing Tian felt even more that he was just a teenager going through a rebellious phase. However, he only looked for a place to stay at the martial arts gym that afternoon and didn't have time to film a video.

Both She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi were injured. After the meal, the two returned to the Dragon Spirit Tower to recuperate. Although Chi Xie was also injured, his injuries were not serious. In addition, with the pills given by Shang Lin, he was now almost fully recovered.

When Huang Ying saw that the new disciple was not a girl but a guy who was strutting around like a peacock, she immediately lost interest in paying attention to him and went back to following Xing Tian to cast a wide net and look for a house. Huang Li, having eaten and drunk his fill, returned to his original form and snuggled up on Xing Tian's lap to sleep.

Shang Lin was working on medicinal herbs, mainly for external use on She Jinxing's eyes. He was also preparing a medicinal bath and had added some herbs to nourish blood and qi.

Seeing that everyone was busy with their own things, Red Scorpion realized that only Tower Spirit was truly free, eating fruit and watching videos. Oh no, he was the most idle person, so idle that he was observing everyone.

Shang Lin prepared the ointment, first applying it to She Jinxing's eyes and then bandaging them before preparing a medicinal bath for himself. However, as he lay down in the bathtub, Chi Xie stood beside him.

Shang Lin looked at the other person helplessly and said, "Haven't you tried before? You couldn't kill me, and you won't have the chance now, okay?"

Ignoring Shang Lin's words, Red Scorpion casually grabbed a handful of dregs, "What's the use of this?"

Shang Lin spoke frankly, "I am human, so my physique is naturally not as strong as that of a demon cultivator. Therefore, I need to use this method to refine my body and cultivate my qi."

Red Scorpion tossed aside the dregs of the medicine and looked at Shang Lin with utter bewilderment. "How dare you say you're human?" He wondered what kind of demon or monster had taken over his human body!

However, Red Scorpion did not say this aloud, but what he said was half the truth: Shang Lin was not a demon or monster possessing a human body, but rather he was a human who possessed a human body.

Shang Lin looked at Red Scorpion with great confusion, "Which eye of yours could tell I'm not human?"

This question was like a vicious cycle, with one side insisting it wasn't true and the other firmly believing it was. Chi Xie stopped repeating, "So what exactly does this Yuntai Sect do?"

Shang Lin immediately dismissed him, saying, "Go ask the Divine Lord; I need to cultivate."

Red Scorpion, "..."

She stormed out in a huff.

After leaving the house, Red Scorpion really went to find the God Lord, only to find him still engrossed in watching videos. And his size... is it really that unstable?

It took the God-King a while to look up from his phone screen and then at Red Scorpion. "What's wrong?"

Red Scorpion asked bluntly, "Is the God-King truly a God-King?"

"The 'Divine Lord' refers to my past life; I am now just a tower spirit who eats, drinks, and has fun."

"A past life?!" Red Scorpion asked curiously, "What was a god-king in your past life?"

The deity looked at the red scorpion with great confusion, "Who still cares about the past life? This life is the focus, no, the present is the focus, after all, yesterday is gone, tomorrow has not come, there is only today."

Red Scorpion choked, "The sect leader said that I needed to understand the situation within the sect, so I came to ask you."

"Hehe..." The Divine Lord immediately laughed out loud, "Didn't you not want to acknowledge Shang Lin as your master, and even wanted to kill him? How come you're acting like a fox borrowing the tiger's power now?"

Red Scorpion choked again, then said somewhat dejectedly, "Since I can't kill him, I can only accept my fate."

"Hehe..." The deity laughed again, "You are a promising student. Ask away, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

Red Scorpion, "..."

In his mind, he was furiously complaining about what was so great about Shang Lin that all these outcasts followed his lead. However, he was acting recklessly, heading towards his scorpion tail, when something seemed to block his way.

At the time, the situation was chaotic and I didn't think much about it. Now that I think about it, there aren't many things that can withstand my scorpion tail, so Shang Lin really isn't human. He actually talked nonsense with a straight face.

After soaking in the medicinal bath, Shang Lin finally felt completely recovered. Then he received a transfer from Xing's father. Although this transfer was negligible compared to the previous transfer from Situ Pojun, every little bit counts!

For Shang Lin, a money-grubber, this was naturally something to be happy about. But the next second, he received a call from Master Yuanyin, who asked him to refine pills.

These were the pills that Situ Pojun had sent out in the Northwest. Shang Lin was even happier now. Wouldn't this be considered a triple celebration? If he could also take on a new disciple, wouldn't that be a quadruple celebration?

However, Shang Lin did not agree immediately. Instead, he calmly said, "I'm out of medicinal herbs. Can Master Yuanyin provide some?"

After Shang Lin's large-scale alchemy, he realized that he would have to wait until next year to continue alchemy. Although he has pills now, She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi are both injured, so he still has to prioritize his own people.

Master Yuanyin immediately asked Shang Lin to write up a prescription, which he would send over as soon as possible.
