Chapter 196 This room is mine!

In the thatched house.

Ye Longtao recalled that even the inner disciples of Qingxu Temple lived in single-room courtyards with spotless windows.

He would never willingly step into such a dilapidated thatched hut.

Wasn't he currently infiltrating the Demonic Sect?
His memories began to resurface.

He remembered, it was Su Ling'er... She was leading him along a path, and there was no sound except for the wind.

I think I... said something that provoked her.

then……

Then it seemed like something came crashing in from the side with tremendous force.

Then, I woke up and found myself here.

What happened? !
A thought, out of control, rose from the depths of Ye Longtao's heart.

Could it be... that Su Ling'er was angered by my words?

So she arranged for someone to knock her unconscious and throw her into this place to humiliate her?

This association instantly ignited the anger in his heart.

Who is my identity?!

Inner disciples of Qingxu Temple!
Although not a direct disciple, he was still a prodigy of Qingxu Temple!

The sect leader values ​​him so much that he assigned him the undercover mission!

How could someone like me live in a place like this?!
This kind of thatched hut is only fit for those useless outsiders to live in!

No, that's not right!

He snorted in his heart.

When they were at Qingxu Temple, the fact that the sect arranged for them to stay in the woodshed was already a blessing from heaven!
Those good-for-nothings can't even get close to the threshold of immortality. They should live in a pigsty to realize their place!

A thought flashed through his mind.

This thatched hut is probably the residence that the Demonic Sect arranged for them, a bunch of useless outer disciples.

That's right, how could trash like them deserve to live in a good place?

but……

They can live in such pigsties themselves, but how dare they drag themselves into the same quagmire as them?!

Tolerable or unbearable!
A surge of anger welled up inside him.

He kicked the thin wooden door with a loud bang, almost shattering it, and rushed out.

Then he saw the scene around him.

Bamboo houses with upturned eaves, stone houses with steps...

The dwellings, from bricks and stones to wood, all show signs of maintenance, and are scattered along the contours of the mountain.

Ye Longtao's anger surged so intensely that it burst through the top of his head.

OK!

All I did before was test him with my words, and I didn't even openly nitpick like he usually does, all for the sake of the mission. And yet, this is what I get in return for such deliberate humiliation?!
You're all living comfortably, but you're leaving me all alone in this place?!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Unable to suppress his humiliation and fury any longer, he roared at his dwelling shrouded in morning mist:
"Su Ling'er! Get out here right now!"

……

The roar instantly shattered the morning silence of this heartland.

Different sounds came from the undercover agents' respective residences.

Some disciples rubbed their eyes and got out of bed, looking completely bewildered.

Some people were meditating and cultivating when the roar startled them so much that their internal energy reversed.

Only in Li Chunfeng's bamboo house was Li Chunfeng still asleep. He seemed to have heard some noise, but he only dozed off and continued to draw his sword and sheath it while sleeping.

The clanging sound of swords being drawn and sheathed echoed as Li Chunfeng muttered, "This is a good thing," before drifting back to sleep.

……

Inside Dong Changsheng's stone house.

His heart skipped a beat when he heard the roar.

He remembered yesterday when he had knocked out this new inner disciple.

But then, an realization dawned on him.

His mentor's teachings flashed through his mind: "You must be grateful! Be grateful for every instance of suppression, be grateful for everyone who looks down on you!!"

"Because those are all indispensable steps on the path to the top for the strong!"

Yes!

Isn't this Senior Brother Ye's anger just a new "stepping stone" on my road to success?

This is a "test" I must overcome!
I should... be grateful to him!

……

A moment later, the doors were pushed open.

The group, still half-asleep, emerged from their respective dwellings, their gazes all turning to the doorway of the thatched hut, where Ye Longtao stood, fuming with rage.

The same thought flashed through their minds simultaneously.

...Is this guy crazy?
What's all the noise about so early in the morning?
Are you still half asleep or what?
Don't you know that disturbing someone's sleep will get you kicked by a horse?

But when they thought about how the other party was an inner sect prodigy, they only dared to say it in their hearts.

Only Su Ling'er, yawning and rubbing her temples which were throbbing from lack of sleep, spoke directly:

"I said, are you sick? If you're sick, go get treated! What are you yelling about so early in the morning? You're disturbing everyone's peace and quiet."

What's wrong with this guy?!
And why do you only call me by my name?

I didn't hit you. There are so many people here, do you think I'm easy to bully?!

As expected, with such a mindset, no wonder the sect leader sent you here like a discarded pawn!

He would probably be a menace if he stayed in the inner sect of Qingxu Temple. Sending him here can make use of his talents. If he succeeds, great; if not, it will still serve as a way to clean up the bad elements in the inner sect.

Ye Longtao laughed in anger upon hearing Su Ling'er's words.

"Am I sick? I think you're the ones who are sick!"

He stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over all the undercover disciples who had come out of the building.

When he saw those faces clearly and confirmed that they were all useless members of the outer sect of Qingxu Temple, his disdain could no longer be concealed and overflowed.

"I have dual spiritual roots. What are you?"

He extended a finger and touched each face that was flushed with anger.

"A bunch of useless pseudo-spiritual roots. The highest aptitude among them is only a three-spiritual-root person."

"Who am I? And who are you?"

"You think you're worthy to live with me?"

Su Ling'er remained expressionless, her voice flat and emotionless.

"This is the local custom: all new disciples live in thatched huts."

"If you want to improve it, build it yourself, or buy it with spirit stones."

Her gaze lingered on Ye Longtao for a moment.

"Could it be... you don't have any spirit stones? Or are you hoping someone will give you a place to live for free?"

"That's true. I suppose you've never experienced hardship in the past."

"impossible!!!"

Ye Longtao flatly refused, his voice booming.

"Those are the sect's rules for you bunch of trash! How could I, Ye Longtao, be associated with you?!"

These words were like a slap in the face to the other disciples, causing everyone to breathe heavily and clench their fists in their sleeves.

Ye Longtao's gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on the newly built pavilion of disciple A.

"This room is nice."

He pointed to the attic and announced it in a commanding tone.

"From today onwards, it belongs to me."

Having said that, he ignored everyone and turned to walk towards the small attic.

Disciple A trembled, his face drained of color, but he dared not utter a sound.

But Su Ling'er let out a loud shout!
"you dare!"
