After leaving the portrait with them, Ye Luo left with the demon tiger.
However, before leaving, the Grand Elder gave Ye Luo an invitation. He courteously invited Ye Luo to head to the Qian Emperor Dao Sect three months later as a special guest to spectate the sectâs internal competition.
Ye Luo could only accept the invitation in order to get rid of this old man.
The Grand Elder could only watch Ye Luo leave before retreating out of the clouds.
After exiting the clouds, the Grand Elderâs bent back immediately straightened, and his face turned expressionless, looking like a person of virtue and prestige. He was a completely different person from the fawning dog he had just been!
The two elite disciples could not hold it in any longer.
One of the elite disciples opened his mouth and said, âGrand Elder! Why was your tone just now⦠Why was it so⦠humble?â
They could not believe that their Grand Elder had actually spoken in such a way.
When the Grand Elder heard this, he looked at the two elite disciples expressionlessly. He slowly said, âWhat do you mean by humble? This old manâs tone was only a bit kinder. This old man represents the Qian Emperor Dao Sect. Is there any problem with me being a bit kinder in front of a hidden sect?â
You call that tone friendly?
Grand Elder, do you have some misunderstanding about the word âkindâ?
The other disciple could not help but say, âBut Grand Elder, you seemed to want to betray the sect just now and even said you wanted to be their Dao Protector.â
The Grand Elder muttered in his heart, This hidden sect is a force that has existed for at least 10,000 years and possesses a supreme inheritance. If it was possible, who wouldnât want to join it?
The problem is that they wonât accept me!
Although this was what he thought, he could not say it out loud. Otherwise, he would probably end his career as the Grand Elder.
He could only lie with his eyes wide open. He said expressionlessly, âLittle Friend Yeâs sword severed your minds, so you were hallucinating. How could I be that kind of person? I am absolutely loyal to the Qian Emperor Dao Sect.
âAlso, how dare the two of you slander me, saying that I want to betray the sect? This crime is unforgivable. When I return to the sect, I will inform the Disciplinary Elder. The two of you can go to the Eternal Eventide Peak to sweep the latrine pits!â
He righteously waved his sleeve as he spoke.
With that, he carried the portrait in his arms and walked away with his head high, looking down on the others with his nose.
The two elite disciples, ââ¦â
Look, look!
Is he still a human?
He is just bullying the weak! He was clearly the one who was bootlicking so openly, yet he is still insisting that we are the ones who are hallucinating!
What an inhumane person!
At the same time, within the east regionâ¦
In the mortal world, in the kingdom of Great Zhou and Silvermoon Cityâ¦
Chu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back at the city gate, his robes fluttering wildly in the wind. He looked at the majestic city walls and the beautiful mountains and rivers outside and sighed emotionally.
âIâve finally reached this place,â Chu Yuan muttered to himself.
He had been to this city before.
When he had first transmigrated here, he had gone down the mountain to search for someone with poor talent to become his disciple. His first stop had been Silvermoon City.
This was also the place where he had learned about this world. He had also heard about Ye Luo, this âtrashâ, in an inn in Silvermoon City.
Now, he was looking for a second âtrashâ disciple.
Of course, he was going to take a stroll around Silvermoon City.
Chu Yuan walked toward Silvermoon Cityâs gate.
There was a long queue at the city gate as entering the city required a fee.
Butâ¦
Making Chu Yuan queue up to pay?
That was never going to happen. This wasnât about being stingy or not. This was about his dignity as a mighty Nascent Soul expert!
Clouds formed under Chu Yuanâs feet as he transformed into a breeze and entered the city.
Paying money to enter the city was impossible.
He would never pay in his life.
After entering the city, Chu Yuan found an inn on a familiar road.
Drunken Immortal Inn!
The inn shopkeeper had a wide network of connections and knew a lot of information about both immortals and mortals. The shopkeeper had informed Chu Yuan about Ye Luo.
Chu Yuan recalled the past and could not help but reveal a faint smile, preparing to enter the inn to greet the shopkeeper.
He walked to the front of the inn and was about to enter. However, the smile on his face froze when he saw a sign on the door.
A sentence was written on the sign: âThis person and dogs are not allowed into the inn!â
At the bottom was a sketch.
Although it was very abstract, Chu Yuan could still see it.
It was a sketch of himself.
This shopkeeper⦠This is not fair!
Chu Yuan secretly frowned. He didnât remember doing anything the last time he had come.
It was only because he had just arrived in this city and had no money on him that he had asked the shopkeeper for one copper coin.
After which, he had used the shopkeeperâs copper coin to buy a full table of food and drinks forcefully.
After that, the shopkeeper had even been kind enough to let him stay for a night under his imposing manner. The next day, he had even given him a table of breakfast and the news of Ye Luo before leaving.
The shopkeeper was such a kind person before. How did he become like this now?
Sigh⦠Itâs no wonder people say that love will disappear and people will change.
To think that I was planning on catching up with the shopkeeperâ¦
Chu Yuan let out a long sigh and strode into the inn.
The Drunken Immortal Inn was bustling as usual, and sounds of laughter and glasses clinking resounded incessantly.
Chu Yuan pretended not to hear these voices and walked straight to the counter.
A middle-aged fatty was tapping his abacus noisily at the counter. He did not see Chu Yuan approaching at all.
n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu Yuan walked in and whispered, âShopkeeper, youâre not very kind.â
To think that he treated the shopkeeper as a good friend and planned to visit him for free. Cough, cough⦠He planned to come again to chat and have a meal together.
This shopkeeper was really unkind.
When the middle-aged fatty heard this familiar tone, his body trembled. He slowly raised his head and saw Chu Yuan.
When he saw Chu Yuan, the fats on his body could be seen trembling.
He was trembling due to anger!
This fellow actually dared to appear before him again!
In his entire life, when had he ever suffered a loss when doing business? It was this fellow who had taken the one copper coin he had given him and extorted a table of dishes, a table of breakfast, and a night of lodging!
This was the greatest humiliation of his life!
The middle-aged fatty said hoarsely, âYou, you, you, you still dare to appear! Didnât you see what I wrote outside the inn!?â
The shopkeeperâs voice instantly attracted the guestsâ attention, and they all looked over.
On the other hand, Chu Yuan did not feel embarrassed at all. There was still a smile on his face.
He smiled and said, âShopkeeper, I treat you as a friend, but you treat me like this. Sigh⦠Iâm sad. If thatâs the case, if you do not treat me to a table of food today, I will not forgive you!â
The shopkeeper spat and said with wide eyes, âDo you still think my inn is the same as before? Ever since you threatened me last time, Iâve hired a Foundation Establishment expert to oversee the place. Do you still dare to be arrogant?â
Chu Yuan smiled without changing his expression.
âIâm sorry, Iâm a Nascent Soul powerhouseâ¦â
