Chapter 76 - She: A Useless Senior Brother; Teach Her a Lesson

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The fight ended with Tian Ci’s defeat.

This was something that nobody had expected.

After all, he was unmatched amongst his peers, and the fact that he was regarded as the Senior Brother by some Holy Sons and Daughters in Zhong Province showed how frightening his strength was.

However, he was defeated by a little girl today.

Most of the people couldn’t come around to their senses. Tian Ci was shocked by the outcome of the battle as well.

“People always say that there’s always someone better than us. I used to think that I’m the strongest, but only now do I realize how ignorant I was!” Tian Ci sighed. “You’re truly powerful, Junior Sister Linglong. Your strength and power are unparalleled amongst your peers, especially your phoenix bloodline. It’s so pure that it feels as if you’re the direct descendant of a phoenix! I can see that I still need a lot of training after today’s defeat. Therefore, I’m going back to my place to continue training. I hope to see you all again in the future!”

Tian Ci greeted the crowd and flew into the sky.

A lot of the people in the mountain had mixed expressions on their faces as Tian Ci’s figure was getting smaller and smaller in their vision. They turned their heads to look at Zi Linglong, and the mixed expressions on their faces grew even more complicated.

Some of them were jealous of her, but a lot of them shook their heads inwardly. Although Tian Ci did not state it explicitly, they could see what he was trying to do. He was setting up a trap for Zi Linglong.

On Chuyang Peak…

Swoosh!

The Human Paths Record flipped open.

Tian Ci’s status: He was amazed by Zi Linglong’s strength. He was delighted when he saw Zi Linglong defeating many geniuses in a row. Initially, he planned to defeat her and bring her under his command, but things didn’t go as he wished. He was defeated by Zi Linglong. After his defeat, he was disappointed in himself and felt too ashamed to stay. After thrusting Zi Linglong into the limelight, he left. He swore to himself that he would come back one day and make Zi Linglong submit to him in the future!

A glimmer of light flitted across Jiang Ming’s eyes, but it disappeared in the next second. He lifted his head and looked into the sky.

He had a hunch that they were being watched by a powerful being. It was a shame that he did not know their name and had never seen them before. Otherwise, he would have checked their information through the Human Paths Record.

“I think there’s nothing I can do other than wait now,” Jiang Ming muttered.

“Tian Ci lost!” Old Tie said, disbelief accenting his voice. “Ever since he became a martial artist, he had never been defeated before. No matter if it was a genius, a Holy Son, or someone with a special body, he triumphed over all of them, and that fueled his ego. It makes him feel like he’s the strongest, and he must be very upset after his defeat in Linglong’s hands today!”

“He seems like a gentle person on the surface, but deep down, he’s very prideful. If he cannot pick himself up after his defeat today, then this is as far as he can go. If he’s able to walk out of it, he will reach a whole new level. At that time, he will become a very formidable person!” Qing Fengzi commented, “Unfortunately, he’s weak-willed.”

“Weak-willed?”

“Yes! You spend all day either working out or taking a lava bath in the mountains, so you’re not as good as me at looking through someone. The power of darkness is one of the Daos as well. If you want to comprehend it, first, you need to immerse yourself in it, but what about him? He’s always gentle and covers all his sides beautifully. It’s as if he has never made a single mistake before, and he seems a little bit too perfect. So how is this a genius who has forged an invincible faith?”

“That’s why I have been getting a strange vibe from him, so this is it! His smile isn’t as warm and sincere as this boy over here!”

“Yes!” Jiang Ming nodded in assent.

Many people were leaving Reception Peak, but a few of them stayed behind.

Unfortunately, the Son of Prophet did not get to form a list in the end.

The sun was setting into the horizon in the distance.

Zi Linglong returned to Chuyang Peak.

“Girl, I’m sure you’ve heard of the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion, right? It’s a Sacred Land in Zhong Province, and I’m a Supreme Elder of the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion. If you come with me, I can make you a Holy Daughter, and you’ll have access to a full range of resources such as precious pills, Dao Vessels, and many more!” Old Tie said.

“I’m the Supreme Elder of the Qingyun Sect, and I say you should come with me. Although the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion is a Sacred Land, there are many of them in Zhong Province. But the Qingyun Sect is the only Sacred Land in Eastern Region. If you come with me, I assure you that you can have whatever you want. Holy Daughter, a full set of Dao Vessels, you just need to name it, and I’ll prepare everything for you!” Qing Fengzi said.

“This is my home, and I have no intention of leaving,” Zi Linglong said with a smile. “Thank you for your offer.”

They did not press on, just sighed and left.

Zi Linglong wrapped her arms around his and asked, “What do you think of my performance, Senior Brother? Even though some of them are Holy Sons and Daughters, they’re no match for me.”

“You’re the most awesome,” Jiang Ming replied. “In fact, you’re the best, and I’m a little bit scared of you right now.”

“Are you going to leave me alone, Senior Brother?” Linglong asked with a pout, looking just like an abandoned kitten.

“I’m just scared that you will accidentally kill me when you’re hugging me,” Jiang Ming said.

“Hmph! I can even jump on you and crush you with my weight!” Zi Linglong harrumphed.

“Haha, you’re so funny!”

“Hehe, Senior Brother, it has been some time since I last ate your food.”

“So what do you want to eat today?”

“Anything! As long as you’re the one who makes it, I’ll eat it.”

“Alright, then. Sigh, I’m really such a busy bee,” Jiang Ming said as he rushed into the kitchen happily.

In the next few days, more and more people left Reception Peak.

Name: Lin Han

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Cultivation base: Dao Seed Realm

Background: Holy Son of the Qingyun Sectn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Relationship: 1

Innate talent: Ten Stars (Mystic Ice Body)

Status: Although he was defeated by Zi Linglong, he was delighted. This was because he realized that Zi Linglong had mastered the Dao of Yang. After returning to his sect, he would ask an Elder to keep an eye on the Jiuyang Sect. He was going to take her away when she left the sect and force her to help him in his cultivation!

Standing on the roof with his hands clasped behind him, Jiang Ming looked at the figures that were leaving Reception Peak.

He checked Qing Fengzi’s information again. When he tried to trace him, he realized that he was at a location 1,000 miles away from him.

“Tch! What a shame… I can’t kill him like this!”

Jiang Ming had come up with a few plans, but he discarded all of them in the end. He did not have the confidence that he could take Qing Fengzi down. No matter if he used his decoy to distract him or went up straight at him, none of them would work. After all, Qing Fengzi was too strong, even stronger than Bai Zizai.

“I guess I’ll let him live for now,” Jiang Ming said to himself.

The remaining two people left as well.

Xi Yao’s status: She felt upset when she was defeated by Zi Linglong, but the negative feeling dissipated after seeing Zi Linglong defeating several geniuses in a row, including Tian Ci, with her powerful special abilities. She challenged Zi Linglong to a fight in the next few days. Initially, she wanted to make Zi Linglong submit to her, but she had long forsaken the goal and admired Zi Linglong from the bottom of her heart. She also had a slight understanding of the Dao of Extreme Yin. When she was leaving, she promised that she would come to visit Zi Linglong again after digesting everything she gained through her fights with her.

“Well, she’s one-of-a-kind. She isn’t as arrogant as other Holy Sons or Daughters.”

Jiang Ming nodded inwardly.

In fact, he hoped that she would stay.

After all, she had a voluptuous body figure, and her skin was as fair as snow. On top of that, she was gorgeous and pleasing to the eyes. Jiang Ming was certain that she could add a lot of fun and color to this bleak and boring mountain if she stayed.

Just when he was locked in his thoughts, Xi Yao turned her head around, and a smile appeared on her face. She looked just like a blooming flower under the sun.

“She’s really gorgeous!”

Jiang Ming’s heart skipped a beat and then the corner of his lips twitched when he noticed the new addition in the Human Paths Record.

Xi Yan’s status: When she realized someone was looking at her, she turned her head around and realized the person standing on the roof was Zi Linglong’s Senior Brother. She wondered why Zi Linglong would have a useless Senior Brother like him since she was a prodigy herself. She felt ashamed on her behalf.

“Should I teach her a lesson?” Jiang Ming gnashed his teeth.

However, when he saw Mo Lin’s status, killing intent surged in his eyes. “Well, it seems like someone is asking for a beating~”
