Chapter 487 Kong Zhai? Kong Zhai!

Gu Dan stood beside Shen Jiangyue, smiling the whole time.

Those Yuanying masters from the Changsheng Sect who came to congratulate did not have any ill intentions. Except for Master Zheng who had already left in anger, even Master Bai came over to praise him.

These people are the real top power of Changsheng Sect. Don't be fooled by their kind faces now. When they are really angry, they can literally cause the sky to collapse and the earth to split.

Since Gu Dan has joined the Changsheng Sect, he naturally wants to get acquainted with them. At least he has to know that there is such a talent in the Changsheng Sect.

Although he didn't like this kind of worldly wisdom, he couldn't put on a sour face. He just stood obediently beside Shen Jiangyue, acting as a smiling wooden stake.

However, compared to Gu Dan's fake smile, the smile on Shen Jiangyue's face was much more genuine.

Although she had not had the time to teach Gu Dan anything, the relationship between them as master and disciple could not be false, and it was already a relationship where they would prosper together and suffer together.

After all, Gu Dan is her apprentice. If the apprentice does well, it will be a honor for the master, right?

Older people may not take it seriously when they are praised for themselves, but if they were boasting about their close juniors, they would probably be overjoyed.

"No, no, this kid has just been promoted to the Golden Core stage. Alas, I didn't want him to intervene in the battle so soon, he still needs to grow. But this kid was determined to give it a try, and I had no choice.

Who would have thought that he actually won? Hahahaha."

Shen Jiangyue's eyes curved, and her tone was clearly a reprimand, but she couldn't hide her pride, and in the end she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Meng Xun? Lou Yan?

He is just a person who is trying to sell his head!

It has to be her apprentice who does it.

Some are happy, some are sad.

On the other side, the distraught Lou Yan stood there blankly, while a group of excited fellow students shouted in his ears that they were not convinced, saying that Kong Zhai had no martial ethics and that they must fight again.

However, Lou Yan knew that if he lost, he lost. If it was a life-and-death fight, he would have been dead the moment the physical cultivator got close to him and even grabbed his neck.

It is not his character to be unreasonable, and Changsheng Sect is not a sect that cannot afford to lose.

Even if he could not represent the Changsheng Sect in the life and death arena, he had already reached the realm of Golden Core Perfection and half-step Nascent Soul. In fact, the demand for this spot was not as great as others imagined.

He wanted to get this spot just to prove himself.

Prove your own practice and prove your own efforts.

He finally got to experience victory and cheer; it was one of the rare wonderful moments in his life, albeit a brief one.

"I lost again."

Lou Yan lowered his eyes, but he was not actually too sad. He had won many times in the Changsheng Sect, and also lost many times. He had never been the final winner, and he had even become accustomed to the feeling of being just a little bit short.

But he did not stop there after all. He spent a lot of effort to cultivate a magical power to a small degree of success. The pain and effort involved were hard for others to imagine.

I thought that after achieving a small success in my supernatural powers, I would be able to walk all over the Jindan realm, and even compete with the formation maniac who was known as the invincible in the Jindan realm. Who would have thought that I would be taught a lesson in the blink of an eye.

Although magical powers are great, what good are they if you can't use them? "Master."

"Meet the Master."

When Lou Yan was lost in thought, he was awakened by the voices of his fellow apprentices.

When he raised his head, he saw Master Zheng with a gloomy face walking towards him.

Lou Yan couldn't help but lower his head, unwilling to look into those angry eyes.

He could forgive himself, but he felt sorry for his master and the expectations his fellow junior brothers and sisters had placed on him.

After all, one is not really alone.

Venerable Zheng had already arrived and stood in front of Lou Yan.

The originally noisy and dissatisfied junior brothers and sisters finally stopped talking and just looked at their master with expectant eyes, hoping that their master could seek justice for Senior Brother Lou Yan.

If that doesn't work, best of three is fine! Anyway, we can't lose like this.

The angry Master Zheng did not speak at first, but Lou Yan could feel that gaze like the scorching sun staring at him, and his whole body felt like it was burning on fire.

"Lift your head!"

The majestic and suppressed voice of Master Zheng sounded.

Lou Yan raised his head as he was told, and met those angry eyes, he could only smile bitterly in his heart.

Venerable Zheng has a bad temper.

Thousands of years ago, he was a genius like Meng Xun. He cultivated smoothly all the way to the Nascent Soul stage without suffering any major hardships.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, he did not have the opportunity to become a spirit, so he focused all his attention on training his disciples.

Among all the venerables in the Changsheng Sect, Venerable Zheng can be said to be the one who is the most strict with his disciples.

Few disciples could receive his praise, even those with natural spiritual roots were no exception.

Who isn’t a genius?

Reverend Zheng himself was one before, and is now a senior elder of the Changsheng Sect. He is qualified to point fingers at others, and scolding them harshly is natural.

He did indeed care about his disciples, provided that he admired them.

But this doesn't affect me from being scolded.

A late bloomer who had reached the Golden Core Perfection, was half a step away from the Nascent Soul, and even had some supernatural powers, appeared on behalf of Master Zheng's most valued disciple, but he actually lost to an unknown junior who had just been promoted to the Golden Core Perfection.

Lou Yan felt that now Zun Zheng wanted to tear him apart alive.

Of course, Reverend Zheng has never done such an excessive thing, but a long-lasting verbal abuse is bound to continue.

However, it was beyond Lou Yan's expectation.

Master Zheng stared into his eyes and said word by word: "I am very happy that you can beat Meng Xun."

A trace of confusion appeared in Lou Yan's eyes.

This... This kind of words don't sound like something Master Zheng would say.

"but"

As expected, immediately afterwards, Master Zheng changed the subject and said, "I am very unhappy that you lost to Kong Di!"

The familiar feeling is back.

Lou Yan had a stern face, ready to be spitted at.

A powerful hand slammed down on the shoulder.

Lou Yan couldn't help but close his eyes slightly. Master Zheng must have lost his temper and was ready to hit someone.

But it didn’t.

The heavy palm just slapped his shoulders a few times, as if to slap out the evil in his heart. Zheng Zun took a deep breath and said, "The two cancel each other out. There is no reward or punishment."

"Um?"

Lou Yan widened his eyes in shock and looked at Master Zheng in disbelief.

"Why? You still want to ask me for a reward?"

Reverend Zheng raised his eyebrows, still with that arrogant expression and cold eyes that were hard to admire.

But Lou Yan's heart was slightly warmed, and he couldn't help but said: "Master Zheng, I..."

"how?"

Reverend Zheng looked at him.

"I'll win next time."

Lou Yan said in a low voice.

"Is this what you should be thinking about?"

Venerable Zheng stared at him, angrily saying, "You are at the Golden Core Perfection stage, your future is at the Nascent Soul stage! Why are you staring at Kong Zhai? Are you going to stop practicing after losing to him? Do you have to fight him to the death at the Golden Core stage? Did someone also break your brain?!"

The series of questions made Lou Yan's head buzz.

I'm back, the familiar feeling is back.

"Give me your all to prepare for the Nascent Soul! It's none of your business to worry about the Golden Core. When you become a Nascent Soul, he will have to bow to you when he sees you!"

Master Zheng said viciously: "Then you can go to him eight or ten times a day, which will be considered as a way to vent your anger for me."

Lou Yan: "As you command."

"Let's go back and practice. Whoever wants to stay in this crappy place can stay!"

At a command, Master Zheng took his disciples and boarded the flying boat and sailed away.

See you again, out of sight, out of mind.

On the other side, the Nascent Soul masters who came to congratulate finally dispersed.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Shen Jiangyue still felt unsatisfied. Looking at the group of people led by Zheng Zunzhe who had already boarded the flying boat in the distance, she smiled and said, "With his bad temper, he's probably going to be pissed off to death."

Gu Dan just smiled and didn't respond.

He has no intention of offending anyone, but he will not let anyone push him around. If something that he should fight for is considered an offense, then there is nothing he can do about it.

I don't think Yuanying Venerable should be that petty.

"Master, this must be my fellow apprentice whom I have never met, right?"

Just when the place finally calmed down, a woman whose appearance and figure were absolutely top-notch even among cultivators came over, gave Shen Jiangyue a warm hug, and then her clear eyes fell on Gu Dan.

"Lingyin, this is the second disciple I accepted, and also your junior apprentice brother."

Shen Jiangyue reached out and ruffled Lu Lingyin's hair, then said, "This is Lu Lingyin, my first disciple, and also your senior sister."

Senior sister is okay.

Gu complained inwardly out of worry, there are only two disciples in total, and they have to be divided into a senior sister and a junior brother, right?

"Meet Senior Sister."

Gu Dan still bowed honestly with his fists clasped.

"You're welcome."

Being called Senior Sister, Lu Lingyin's almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly in joy, revealing two dimples on her face, "In the future, Senior Sister may have to rely on Junior Brother for protection. I don't even have the confidence to beat Lou Yan."

"Lou Yan wasn't prepared enough, it was just luck."

Gu Dan said modestly.

"Alright, alright, you two stop talking like outsiders. It gives me goosebumps just listening to you. Since you are all my disciples, you are a family. Don't distance yourself from each other."

Shen Jiangyue said: "Lingyin came so late, what good gift did you prepare for Junior Brother?"

"Wow, as soon as the master got a new disciple, he wanted to make Lingyin's wallet bleed. The master is fickle!"

Lu Lingyin protested in dissatisfaction.

"go."

Shen Jiangyue gave Lu Lingyin a slap on the head with her finger, "Don't be so nagging, take it out quickly."

"Well, I still can't hide it from Master."

Lu Lingyin took out two storage bags and said, "I prepared a gift for my junior brother before, but I didn't expect that he would be a physical cultivator, so it took a while, so I asked my friend to change it for something else."

As she spoke, she took out a bottle of pills from her storage bag and said, "There are nine 'Dragon King Body Shaping Pills' in here. They are made from the bones and flesh of the Dragon King and various natural treasures. They are very beneficial to the growth of the body. It would be great for you to give them to me, Junior Brother."

"good."

Shen Jiangyue nodded slightly and commented: "The Dragon King Body Reshaping Pill can be regarded as a top-grade pill, but its medicinal properties are too explosive, so it cannot be used by non-physical cultivators. But for physical cultivators, it is definitely the top-notch pill, and there is even a chance to possess a trace of the power of 'dragon bones', nourish strength, and reshape flesh and blood. It is rare even in the Changsheng Sect."

This gift was thoughtfully prepared and is quite valuable.

Even if she wanted to get a bottle, it would not be easy. It should be the stock from the Dragon King hunted by Zhen Chi and his men. After all, it requires the flesh and bones of the Dragon King to be refined.

Gu Dan hesitated and said: "Sister's gift is too valuable, and I haven't prepared a gift yet."

"It doesn't matter. You can give it to Senior Sister later."

Lu Lingyin stuffed the white jade bottle into Gu Dan's hand and said, "Besides this, there is another gift that I am more satisfied with!"

"Um?"

This time even Shen Jiangyue couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly.

The Dragon King Body Shaping Pills are already very valuable. It's really a huge sacrifice for this little girl to take out nine of them. How could she come up with something more satisfactory?

Lu Lingyin did not show off her relationship. With a wave of her hand, a mountain of spirit stones appeared in front of her.

“Dang, dang, dang! Thirty thousand spirit stones!”

The dimples on Lu Lingyin's face became deeper and deeper. "When Junior Brother was on the stage, someone opened the bet below, and I bet on Junior Brother to win~ Junior Brother is so competitive, I will reward him with these earned spirit stones!"

"Hahaha."

Shen Jiangyue couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Okay, okay, this gift is really good, quite good!"

Gu Dan finally laughed and said, "In that case, I will be very sorry to refuse. I will find a satisfactory gift to give back to you one day."

"Okay, it's a deal! With my junior brother's strength, maybe I'll make a profit."

Lu Lingyin joked.

"Alright, we can talk about exchanging feelings in a few days. Your junior brother still has a big battle to fight, so we can't slack off. It's time for us to leave."

Shen Jiangyue waved his hand, but did not forget the important matter.

Fighting on behalf of the Changsheng Sect is not the end, there is also a life and death arena that is related to the division of the source heaven waiting behind! Although there is a high probability that Gu Dan will not need to take action, you should be prepared for everything.

Before the life-and-death competition begins, she needs to learn more from the Changsheng Sect and make her apprentice stronger.

"Miss, the Changsheng Sect has already decided on the candidate for the Life and Death Arena."

In an ancient courtyard, the maid Xiaoqing said in a very low voice.

"Really?"

Under the cover of a ball of holy light, Luo Qingyin stretched out her body wantonly, which was enough to make anyone linger, and stood up from the bathtub, "Who is it?"

"Kong Kong Zhai."

As she repeated the name, Xiaoqing felt that there might be something wrong with her eyesight.

But she had clearly confirmed again and again that the Changsheng Sect had not reported the wrong name.

"Kong Zhai?!"

Luo Qingyin couldn't help but stiffen when she stretched her body, "Is it the same name?"

“Probably not.”

Xiao Qing looked at the message and confirmed it again before saying, "It was Kong Zhai who was promoted to the late foundation building stage after listening to you playing the piano."

Luo Qingyin put on her clothes, and a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes.

“That’s a bit incredible.”
