Fu Hongming skillfully pulled out a handkerchief and began to chatter on and on: "Junior Sister, your Third Senior Sister has such a hard life!"
This familiar opening line.
Tianning is numb...
"She met the wrong person, falling in love with the sycophant who used to be our Fifth Junior Sister's sidekick. That bastard hid his demonic energy in our Ten Thousand Swords Sect, trampling on your Third Senior Sister's sincere heart. Knowing full well that your Third Senior Sister was a sword cultivator, he not only destroyed her dantian, but also imitated the wicked woman who harmed the Second Brother, severing her tendons as well... Waaah, my poor Third Junior Sister, as a sword cultivator, can't even lift a sword, how can she live... In the end, she can only be forced to become a pill cultivator and refine pills..."
Tianning suddenly understood what was going on with this pot of green stuff.
Normal alchemists are similar to healers in the mortal realm, but Third Senior Sister harbors resentment; she's evolved into a poison cultivator...
"Senior Brother, shut up!" Women can't stand hearing about past scandals, especially failed relationships. She was ruined so badly by that damned bastard! How could Senior Brother expose her past?! She grabbed a broom from the ground and charged at the two of them.
Fu Hongming, no longer caring about crying, grabbed Tianning and ran wildly out of Shi Qinxin's courtyard until the woman behind them stopped chasing, at which point he was exhausted and panting heavily.
"Junior Sister... I'll take you to see Fourth Junior Brother!"
Tianning: "..."
She felt that it wasn't absolutely necessary to see her fourth senior brother today.
Before he could refuse, Fu Hongming pointed at a beggar picking up trash by the roadside and shouted, "Fourth Junior Brother! Fourth Junior Brother!"
Tianning: "..."
Upon hearing the noise, the beggar hurriedly protected the trash he had just picked up, his eyes warily fixed on the two approaching figures.
The man was tall and didn't look like a beggar, but his tattered clothes were worse than those of a beggar on the street. He even treated a pile of garbage he had picked up as a treasure, as if he was afraid someone would steal it from him.
Fu Hongming introduced, "This is our new junior sister, Tianning."
"Junior Sister, this is your fourth senior brother, Long Aotian."
Tianning: "..."
Why is someone named Long Aotian doing so poorly?
Long Aotian showed no enthusiasm whatsoever. He didn't care about the new junior sister at all, and fiercely protected his precious trash: "Let me tell you, I don't have anything to give you!"
His rude attitude prompted Fu Hongming to hurriedly explain.
"Junior Sister, please don't misunderstand. Fourth Junior Brother wasn't like this before."
At this painful moment, Fu Hongming's handkerchief reappeared: "Your fourth senior brother has such a tragic life! He was born with auspicious omens, and at the age of three, he was able to draw qi into his body and begin cultivation. He was a legend, a genius among geniuses! But his fiancée betrayed him, his brothers became enemies, and his family schemed against him. Not only was he cuckolded, but his cultivation also went awry, and they even stole all his possessions! Waaah, my poor fourth junior brother..."
Tianning said angrily, "This is outrageous! How could they let Fourth Senior Brother become penniless!"
Tianning firmly believes that you shouldn't hit someone in the face, and you shouldn't rob someone of their money!
"Yes! Yes! Your fourth senior brother was traumatized from then on. He never flaunted his wealth, fearing that someone would steal it from him. He even hesitated to wear decent clothes!"
Fu Hongming wanted to hug Long Aotian and cry, but Long Aotian treated him like a thief.
Tianning, unusually empathetic, said to Long Aotian, "Fourth Senior Brother, don't worry, from now on all the trash in my yard is yours! As long as I'm here, you'll be picking up trash every day!"
Long Aotian: "..."
Shouldn't a normal person sympathize with him and give him something nice?
Fu Hongming cried four times in a row until his voice became hoarse; anyone who didn't know better would think he had gone to a funeral.
"It's getting late, Junior Sister, you should go back and rest. If you're hungry, I have some fasting pills here. Just take one." Fu Hongming thoughtfully handed the fasting pills to Tian Ning.
It was quite a chaotic day. Recalling his unconscious master and his abnormal senior brothers and sisters, Tianning couldn't help but sigh.
"Fortunately, my senior brother is a normal person like me."
The idea vanished completely after one night.
After finally tidying up the yard that night, Tianning, in a good mood, took out some fruit wine from her storage bag and leisurely read a storybook in the yard under the soft moonlight, thoroughly enjoying herself. When she reached the climax of the story, Tianning's eyes lit up!
For some reason, the sound of fighting came from outside, which was quite unpleasant. Tianning didn't want to pay attention to it. She endured it again and again, unwilling to put down the exciting plot of the book.
But it was too noisy outside, and she couldn't concentrate on watching.
What are you doing in the middle of the night?
This forced her to put down her beloved book and go out to see what was going on.
Outside, on the ground lay Long Aotian, who had been scavenging for trash during the day. He was still wearing his beggar's clothes, only they looked even more tattered. Not only were they covered in mud, but his face was also bruised and purple, as if he had been beaten up...
"Fourth Senior Brother?" Tian Ning didn't understand what was going on with him.
"Cough cough..." Long Aotian coughed up a mouthful of blood and said to her, "The new one, you... what's your name again?"
Tianning: "..."
He probably genuinely couldn't figure it out: "Forget it. Sixth brother, you quickly take the second and third brothers down the mountain to seek refuge!"
Tianning felt he was swearing, but she had no proof.
"That madman has gone mad..." Long Aotian pointed directly at his master's courtyard: "You all quickly go to a safe place to take refuge, I'll stop him!"
"What exactly happened, Fourth Senior Brother?"
Throughout the entire Sword Guardian Mountain, Tian Ning clearly did not sense any intruders, and Xiao Bai and Qiu Qiu did not feel any threat. So why did Fourth Senior Brother look like the sky was falling?
Tianning couldn't help but look towards the courtyard. Could it be... that Master has woken up?
Long Aotian was badly injured, but he still stubbornly got up, drew his sword and rushed towards his master's courtyard!
"Sigh... Fourth Senior Brother, your injury! Take some medicine first!"
