He knew it. What future could he have? At most, he would reach the Perfected Immortal realm. Even if he was lucky enough to enter the Heaven Mending Pavilion, his status would only be that of an inner sect disciple.
Hearing Ye Qiuâs humble words, Xiao Yan immediately raised his proud head. He patted his shoulder as if he had experienced it before and said, âItâs good that you know. Keep a low profile in the future. This Nine Heavens and Ten Lands is not like your lower realm.
âNo one will tolerate your bad habits here. If you want to live, you have to tuck your tail between your legs. Donât always think about how youâre awesome. In reality, youâre nothing.
âThere are many people in this world who are more powerful than you. You have to know that thereâs always someone better. If you provoke someone you shouldnât because of this bad habit, the one who will suffer will still be you.â
âYes, yes, yes. Senior Brother Xiao is right. Iâve learned something.â Ye Qiu smiled faintly and didnât want to refute anything.
Ming Yue didnât plan on interrupting their conversation. She only looked at Ye Qiu in confusion, unable to figure out what he was doing.
These two seemed to have a grudge? Ming Yue guessed in her heart, but she didnât say anything because she wanted to see what Ye Qiu would do.
Xiao Yan was even more delighted when he saw how cooperative Ye Qiu was. He wanted to perform well in front of Senior Sister Ming Yue and teach this junior brother who had just entered the sect to display his outstanding personality and charm.
Then, he pretended to be calm and composed. He pretended to be profound and said, âFor you to have such an attitude, it can be seen that you have a pure heart and are serious about learning.
âThis attitude is rare. Donât worry! My Heaven Mending Pavilion has always been fair. As long as you continue to maintain this serious and studious attitude, you will one day stand out. Not to mention the higher levels, you still have a chance to break through to become a core disciple in your lifetime.
âAll the best. If thereâs anything you donât understand about cultivation, feel free to look for me. Iâm very willing to guide you.â
Ming Yue couldnât stand it anymore. She pursed her lips, gritted her teeth, and endured it. No, this was Ye Qiuâs matter. There was no need for her to worry. Let him deal with it himself.
âSenior Brother is right. With my aptitude, Iâm afraid Iâll never be able to be a core disciple. I still have to look up to Senior Brother in the future to live a smoother life.â
Ye Qiu said with a faint smile, cooperating with Xiao Yanâs performance.
At this moment, a breeze blew over and a sage-like figure appeared in front of them.
The three of them immediately bowed and said, âGreetings, Martial Uncle Qi.â
Xiao Yan broke out in a cold sweat when he saw Qi Huan. As a core disciple of the Heaven Mending Pavilion, he could be considered an existence in the Heaven Mending Pavilion. However, it was even more difficult for him to see Qi Huan with his status.
He could not figure it out. Qi Huan was a busy man. Why was he free to come here today? It was rare for him to be here for him. He thought to himself,?Could it be that Iâm qualified to enter the forbidden land to cultivate?
Thinking of this, he was shocked and overjoyed. However, when he saw Ming Yue behind him, he killed this thought.
Qi Huan might be here for Ming Yue. He knew how powerful Ming Yue was. In the entire Holy Land, only she could make Qi Huan personally invite her.
As for Ye Qiu, he wasnât even considered.
According to his understanding, it was already extraordinary for a mortal like Ye Qiu to be able to ascend. When his potential was developed to the limit, he would only be a Perfected Immortal.
The highest he could enter was the ranks of the core disciples, and he would probably have to fight his way up from the outer sect.
How could he have the qualifications to make Qi Huan personally invite him? Not to mention him, even he did not have the qualifications back then.
âMartial Uncle, why are you here?â
Seeing Qi Huan arrive, Xiao Yan smiled and asked affectionately, as if he respected the old and loved the young.
This change in expression was shocking.
Qi Huan only glanced at him indifferently and didnât answer. Then, he said to Ye Qiu, âLetâs go. The First Elder invites you over.â
âAh? Inviting me⦠thatâs not too good, right?â
As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Qiu pretended to be shocked and looked at Xiao Yanâs expression.
At this moment, the smile on Xiao Yanâs face gradually disappeared, but it would not disappear. It would only appear on another personâs face.
Ye Qiu was amused. How embarrassing. Didnât you see that Senior Brother Xiaoâs face had darkened? He didnât understand anything. You should have invited him. Why did you invite me? What right did I have?
Qi Huan did not realize this problem and only replied softly, âThe First Elder personally instructed you to make a trip to his place. I donât know why he would do this. Iâm just passing on the First Elderâs decree.â
âOh, alrightâ¦â
Ye Qiu appeared very unwilling, but he was even more puzzled. Why did Meng Tianzheng suddenly invite him?
âYueâer, Iâll take this kid away first. You can go back first.â
Ming Yue nodded. She didnât think there was anything wrong. She wasnât a person who especially liked to walk around. Since First Elder called Ye Qiu away at the last minute, it saved her the trouble of bringing Ye Qiu around.
âOkay.â She only replied indifferently and did not say anything else.
âLetâs go.â
Qi Huan turned around and reminded him. He prepared to leave. Ye Qiu wasnât in a hurry to leave. Instead, he turned around and looked at Xiao Yanâs expression.
âHehe, Senior Brother Xiao, Iâm sorry. I still have something on and have to leave first. When I have time later, Iâll definitely talk to Senior Brother Xiao more. I hope Senior Brother Xiao can guide me.â
After saying that, he left with Qi Huan. Xiao Yan was completely stunned on the spot, his face red. Ye Qiuâs words were like a knife stabbing into his heart.
He⦠was actually invited away by the First Elder. What kind of person was the First Elder? He was the god of the Heaven Mending Pavilion. Other than the Heaven Mending Goddess, he was the faith of all the disciples.
They had been in the sect for so many years and had never even seen him because they were not qualified. How could Ye Qiu receive the First Elderâs personal invitation as soon as he entered the sect? Only Ming Yue and the successor of the Heaven Mending Goddess, Lian Feng, had such treatment, right?
âDamn it, this kid is pretending to be weak to trick me?â
Recalling Ye Qiuâs performance just now, Xiao Yan was instantly filled with killing intent. He understood. Ye Qiuâs humble performance just now was intentional. He wanted to see him embarrass himself.
What kind of treatment was it to be personally invited by the First Elder? Not to mention the outer sect and inner sect, even the core disciples did not have such treatment.
At this moment, Xiao Yanâs expression was ugly. He said in a low voice, âDamn kid, just you wait. Youâll suffer in the future.â
Xiao Yan, who was in an extremely bad mood, was shamed in front of his goddess and left behind a ruthless sentence. Little did he know that Ming Yue was looking at him as if he was a clown. After a long time, she said.
âA frog at the bottom of a well.â
With that, she turned around and left.
