Are you really trying to cultivate immortality? Something feels off.

He turned his head, put on a smile, and looked at the woman in red. Before he could speak, he was intimidated by her cold gaze and smoothly looked away at the other woman.

He always picks the softest persimmons.

"Xie Weixing, are you willing to reconcile with Senior Sister?"

Tan Suiting took half a step back to distance himself.

Xie Weixing paused for a moment, then replied, "Is there even a choice between me and whether I want to or not?"

He had only just found out that he and his senior sister had a conflict.

Shen Chunri peeked out from behind Tan Suiting, worried for him. After thinking for a long time, she secretly stretched out her leg and kicked him in the butt.

"Ouch!" Xie Weixing was kicked on Nie Zhao's shoulder, hissing. He rolled his eyes and grabbed Nie Zhao's shoulder, starting to whine, "Senior sister, I didn't mean it! Senior sister, I didn't want to argue with you! Senior sister, I just said something a little mean! Senior sister, it hurts so much! Senior sister, I..."

Nie Zhao felt like half of his shoulder was about to collapse. All he could hear were people calling him left and right, and he had no idea where they were going. He impatiently pushed them away, but they seemed to stick to him and came right back.

"Senior sister, senior sister..."

Nie Zhao chuckled, then turned her head away, frowning, and said helplessly, "Xie Weixing, haven't you had enough of fooling around with them?"

Xie Weixing leaned on her shoulder and rubbed his kicked bottom: "Senior sister, you're not angry anymore?"

"I'm not angry with you," Nie Zhao, who was about the same height as him, reached out and touched his hair. "It was indeed my fault. I wasn't talking just now because I wasn't fully awake."

"Hehe," Shen Chunri leaned closer, "That's good, that's good. It's good that you didn't abandon us, Senior Sister."

"Fool."

Shen Chunri took Nie Zhao's hand: "Senior Sister, should we bring a bundle when we go to Wanjian Mountain? We can put some food, drinks, and sleeping supplies in it..."

Xie Weixing raised an eyebrow: "Big sister, are you going to get weapons or have a picnic? I'll get you some more flowers and grass, why don't you settle down over there?"

Shen Chunri bared his teeth, rubbing his fists together, his words becoming slurred due to his clenched teeth: "What the hell are you talking about?"

Xie Weixing clicked his tongue, leaned against Tan Suiting, and rolled his eyes: "He's going to bite again."

"Xie is not yet awake!"

On the day of departure, the group packed up early in the morning and prepared to leave.

Feng Jilan and Fu Yao wanted to protect them on their way to Wanjian Mountain, but Feng Yu refused, saying that two of the five people were at the Nascent Soul stage, which would have made them elders in other sects. He said it was ridiculous to expect their master and junior uncle to protect them like fools.

After hearing this, the group firmly refused, wanting to be independent and not wanting to be ridiculed as "Shi Bao" girls/boys.

At the main gate of the Feng Hua Sect, Feng Jilan grasped Nie Zhao's hand and earnestly advised, "When you're out in the world, remember, you are a member of the Feng Hua Sect..."

Xie Weixing continued listlessly, "No one is allowed to touch a hair on my head. As long as I live, I will never let you suffer the slightest injustice..."

Feng Jilan glared at him fiercely.

He turned and continued earnestly, "But what if you..."

"You've really been wronged," Shen Chunri continued, his eyes still half-closed, "Remember to come back and tell Master, Senior Uncle, and Junior Uncle not to do anything immoral or unethical outside..."

Feng Jilan swung his sword and roared, "You'll be the sect leader!"

Seeing that the old man was angry, the group quickly started to run away.

As soon as Yu Xintang looked up, Shen Chunri and Xie Weixing had already run dozens of meters away.

He was amazed.

Is this the reaction ability developed through years of being beaten?

The wind blew up the waves (not really), and the beard glared.

Xie Weixing and Shen Chunri ran hand in hand, waving back as they went, looking like a pair of idiots who had been struck by lightning.

"Master, we're leaving now! We'll bring you a big, fat sword grandson when we come back!"

"What kind of behavior is this!" Feng Jilan cursed, then laughed, "Remember to come back early, and don't dawdle!"

"Understood!" Yu Xintang shouted without turning her head. "Senior Sister will keep an eye on us!"

Feng Jilan sighed, waved his hand, and let them go: "Go on, go on, you heartless little brats."

Wanjian Mountain is located in Jingzhou, with its layers of peaks and towering peaks.

It's just a bit far from Feng Hua Sect.

Moreover, they didn't have any flying artifacts this time, and the group spent a whole day just traveling.

When they arrived, they had become several exhausted beggars.

Other sect disciples arrived, some escorted by elders... some flew over on magical artifacts... and some slowly rode in carriages...

Full of vigor, he exuded a sense of exhilaration the moment he stepped onto the ground, and his eyes shone with hope and anticipation as he looked towards Wanjian Mountain.

As the few of them hunched over resentfully, Xie Weixing felt like a petty hooligan lounging outside a prestigious high school, smoking, spitting, wearing loafers, and applying hair gel.

The other disciples looked at them with a hint of doubt and disgust, covering their mouths with their fans and whispering among themselves.

What kind of small sect is this? So poor and stingy that they can't even produce a decent magic weapon. The elders escorting them must be at least Golden Core Realm, if not Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. They look like just a few second-rate rogue cultivators.

"Why do you think we're putting on this act?" Xie Weixing said expressionlessly. "What are you pretending to be, some independent cultivation genius? If you don't need your parents to escort you, at least give us the car keys."

Yu Xintang asked weakly, "What's a car key?"

Shen Chunri clung to him, sharing the same thought process as Xie Weixing: "A flying artifact, perhaps."

Nie Zhao was silent for a moment before speaking: "Don't you think it's more shameful for us to do this than for our master to personally escort us?"

Tan Suiting nodded: "I agree."

Fortunately, the profit-driven merchants had sharp eyes and saw that there were customers here, so they opened several inns at the foot of the mountain.

Yu Xintang, a talisman cultivator, had been controlling her sword for a long time and was really tired. She raised her finger and pointed to the most magnificent one.

"What are you doing..." Shen Chunri flirted with him, practically wanting to press her entire body against his back. "We just need a place to rest... Why are you still whining? Are you being picky?"

"What I mean is..." Yu Xintang felt like she was about to suffocate, "This property belongs to Penglai Realm..."

After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent for a moment.

Shen Chunri straightened up slightly, giving him some room to survive, and his tone became respectful: "Young Master, please."

A group of people stormed in like zombies, booked five rooms to rest, and prepared to go into the mountains in the best possible condition the next day.

Just as I received the room key, a few more people walked in.

It looks familiar.

It was the group from the Dao Seeking Sect.

The leader was a woman in purple, who appeared to be the strongest. She was probably Huo Jiangmei, the second senior sister of the Dao Seeking Sect in the original novel's main group.

That is, the one who obtained the Phoenix Sword through underhanded means.

Standing next to Yan Chenxiao was Su Boyu, and next to her was a woman wearing a half-face mask, dressed in a bright yellow outfit. Her cold and sharp features could be vaguely seen. She paused when her gaze fell on the group of people.
