He was now a cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, and he already had a faint sense of the destiny of Heaven. He remembered that last time, after being panicked for several days, he almost lost his life. What would happen this time?
Taoist Baopu thought again and again. Apart from coming to Xiaoyao Peak early in the morning to discuss something with Junior Brother Lingyun, he had not done anything else today. Could this disaster be caused by this matter?
Taoist Lingyun saw Baopu frowning and thinking, so he didn't want to rush him to leave. At this time, Liu Jingyu walked into the hall with his head lowered. He bowed to Taoist Lingyun and Taoist Baopu respectively, saying, "Greetings, Master."
"Greetings, Uncle Master."
"Hmm!" Taoist Lingyun snorted in response, glancing at Liu Jingyu, who bowed his head in deference, a hint of disdain in his eyes. Of Taoist Lingyun's three direct disciples, the eldest, Lin Yifeng, helped with worldly matters, allowing Lingyun to focus on his cultivation. Taoist Lingyun had specially brought his third disciple from the secular world, and to help her play a greater role, he had spared no effort in training her over the years.
Only the second disciple, Liu Jingyu, had parents who were good friends of Taoist Lingyun. After their parents' death, the two brothers came to Taoist Lingyun for refuge. Taoist Lingyun feared gossip that he was not caring for his friend's children, and since Liu Jingyu had only a single spiritual root, Taoist Lingyun had no choice but to accept him as his own disciple. In reality, Taoist Lingyun was somewhat resentful that Liu Jingyu had taken up his quota as a disciple, but he felt compelled to accept him for the sake of his reputation.
Liu Jingyu had no idea that his master still had so much dislike for him. But he wasn't stupid either. Every time he saw his master caring and paying attention to his senior brothers and sisters, but ignoring him, Liu Jingyu already understood his position in front of his master.
When Liu Jingyu came to Xiaoyao Peak to report today, he didn't need to wait outside the hall. He just needed to tell Mingyue the result of the mission and ask Mingyue to pass it on.
To appease Chen Sanjiang, Liu Jingyu had given him his only five remaining spirit beads. Liu Jingyu, now penniless, had wanted to use this opportunity to improve his reputation in front of his master, hoping that if his master was in a good mood, he could also find a way to ask for some elixirs or something.
Taoist Lingyun is an alchemist, and the thing he has the most is elixirs.
Unexpectedly, after meeting the master, the master was too lazy to even say a word to him. Liu Jingyu's heart sank in an instant.
"My dear nephew, did anything big happen today when we sent Chen Sanjiang out of the mountain?" Taoist Baopu's attitude was completely different from that of Taoist Lingyun. After Liu Jingyu entered the hall, Taoist Baopu came back to his senses from his contemplation and put on a amiable look.
Taoist Baopu used to have an eccentric temper and was unwilling to accept direct disciples. Because of this, the talent of Baopu Taoist Jinping Peak was dwindling, and when he needed to do something, he could only rely on the disciples of Taoist Lingyun for help. Taoist Baopu was generous in rewarding those who did a good job for him, which was one of the reasons why Liu Jingyu went to great lengths to help his brother Liu Jingyun take on the Jinping Peak mission.
There is a bigger reason, of course, that is Liu Jingyun wants to be the direct disciple of Taoist Baopu!
In the past few years, Taoist Baopu hadn't accepted any direct disciples, and the people of Yushan Sect thought he was impatient with teaching. Seeing Taoist Baopu accept two disciples at once, Liu Jingyun became a little restless. His spiritual roots were extremely pure, and his cultivation speed was only faster than that of cultivators with only a single spiritual root. He could only be an inner disciple for his entire life, so it would be better to find the support of a peak master. There was still one spot for Taoist Baopu's direct disciple, and Liu Jingyun was eyeing it covetously.
"Uncle Master, it's nothing serious." Liu Jingyu quickly answered when he saw Taoist Baopu asking.
"Oh, that's good." Taoist Baopu stopped talking.
Taoist Baopu had never known why Taoist Lingyun disliked Liu Jingyu. In his opinion, although Liu Jingyu wasn't a genius, he was a good talent who could be nurtured without bringing shame to the Yushan Sect.
It wasn't until two years ago, after Baopu learned the cause of death for several of Lingyun's direct disciples, that he finally understood Lingyun's inner struggles. Baopu couldn't help but look down on Lingyun. "Just a disciple. If you don't want to accept him, then don't accept him. Even if you place him in the inner sect, it's no big deal." "Taking him as a direct disciple, yet not wanting to treat him well, isn't that just making an enemy?" "I wonder if Lingyun's brain is a mess!"
"Since you're alright, go back and practice!" Taoist Lingyun grew impatient when he saw Liu Jingyu's reply that it was nothing serious. As the head of the sect, he was incredibly busy all day long, cultivating and refining pills all day long. How could he have the time to chat with Liu Jingyu? All right, that's the best. Get out of here! After seeing off Senior Brother Baopu, it was time to start refining the pill furnace again.
Liu Jingyu was stunned. He didn't expect that his master would be so unkind to him. Not only did he not receive any reward after finishing the job, he didn't even give him a word of praise. Isn't it too disheartening?
"What are you still standing there for?" Taoist Lingyun got angry when he saw Liu Jingyu standing there, and his tone became a little harsh.
"Yes, disciple, take your leave." Liu Jingyu, unwilling as he was, had no choice but to leave. In his heart, however, he resented Taoist Lingyun. A master like this was worse than nothing. If his elder brother wasn't a direct disciple, he could still try to climb the ladder of his uncle's influence. But he, bearing the title of Xiaoyao Peak's direct disciple, who could understand the pain in his heart?
Liu Jingyu bowed and walked backwards. After taking a few steps back, he felt increasingly unwilling to give up. A flash of inspiration struck him, and he remembered how Chen Sanjiang had come back to report the news after entering the jungle, and he stopped again.
"Master, I have something else to say, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not?" Liu Jingyu gritted his teeth and said to Taoist Lingyun.
"Speak." Taoist Lingyun's words were very simple, and it was clear that he did not take his disciple Liu Jingyu seriously.
"Senior Brother Chen Sanjiang, having just left the secret realm, came back and asked me to ask the outer sect elders at Baizhang Rock if they hadn't sent anyone out to feed Ah Da and Ah Er recently. I didn't understand what he meant, so I came to ask Master..." Liu Jingyu spoke slowly, watching Taoist Lingyun's expression as he spoke, intending to stop before he got angry. However, when he finished, he didn't hear any rebuke from Taoist Lingyun.
On the contrary, after listening to Liu Jingyu's report, Taoist Lingyun's face lost its calm expression and he stood up from the chair with a "whoosh".
Taoist Ling Yun hurriedly took a few steps on the ground, then suddenly stopped, turned around and returned to his chair. He could no longer control his fist and punched the table, shouting: "Li Changqing is a damned genius. He can't even do the smallest thing!"
First set a small goal, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju mobile version reading website:
