Chapter 232: 232, [The Origin of the Green Pearl]
Translator: 549690339
Behind the Demon Sect, lies the Small Study.
Other than the Second Sister, who was still cultivating in the bamboo forest, everyone else was sitting outside the door of the study.
Shen Yan was also there.
At this moment, the Third Brother and Shen Yan were having tea with their teacher.
Mao Nanbei was sprawled on her big rattan chair, swinging one leg freely in the air from time to time.
The sensible Lin Chan was in charge of pouring tea for the elders, and from time to time, she would peel a lychee and pop it into the lazy mouth of Mao Nanbei.
Mao Nanbei and Lin Chan were the most excited upon seeing Lu Xun’s return.
The petite girl no longer sprawled across the chair, but rather cleared a spot and lightly patted it, signalling for Lu Xun to sit next to her, with their butts touching.
Lu Xun first paid his respects to the teacher before sitting down with a smile.
He swiftly snatched the lychee that Lin Chan was peeling for Mao Nanbei, and stuffed it into his own mouth.
Mao Nanbei was irritated and gave him a bump with her butt, but she didn’t use her little paw to scratch him.
Interestingly, her butt was quite bouncy.
Such a nice butt, it would be a waste not to give it a slap.
Shen Yan was clearly waiting on the hill for Lu Xun, probably to discuss some business.
After sipping a cup of hot tea, the teacher glanced at Lu Xun and turned his head away, looking at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle and casually said with a raised orchid finger:
“Let’s put other matters aside for now, Shen Yan has been waiting for you for a while. You’ve been staying outside the sect for quite some time and presumably had encounters with anomalous people, what’s your opinion on this?”
“Huh?” Lu Xun was dumbfounded, he didn’t expect to discuss this matter.
Well, they indeed asked the right person.
After all, he was once part of the army of bizarre gamers, even though he was unwilling to admit it, he was amongst the most quirky and wayward ones.
Even though Lu Xun held an extraordinary position in the Demon Sect, he was only a high-level chef on the hill. Why suddenly care so much about my opinions?
Despite not understanding the teacher’s meaning, Lu Xun would still say what he was supposed to say.
He first asked Shen Yan, “Sect Master, are there any anomalies among the newly accepted disciples in the Demon Sect?”
Shen Yan nodded and said, “Yes, but most of them were discovered to be anomalies after being accepted into the sect.”
Why did he say it’s majority?
Lu Xun could imagine, there must be some players who told the NPCs during the admission test, mysteriously yet arrogantly, “Do you know? I’m an anomaly~”
There must be similar situations! If there aren’t, I swear I would be standing on my head washing my hair!
“Then Sect Master, what are your thoughts?” Lu Xun first counter-asked.
Continued Shen Yan, “In response to Junior Uncle, other than the anomaly disciples having more strange talks and acting a bit odd, they are actually quite proactive in doing sect tasks, and they are especially…uh, eager to help?”
What do you mean by eager to help? They simply want to develop tasks and gain experience points.
Lu Xun was well aware that some players who like to develop plots talk excessively. They pull over anyone they see for a chat, hoping they could dig out some plotline or hidden tasks.
Shen Yan looked at Lu Xun and said leisurely, “Among these anomaly disciples, many of them have long admired Junior Uncle. They keep asking about your whereabouts and frequently whine about why you haven’t returned to the sect.”
“Ha ha, hahaha.” Lu Xun chuckled awkwardly, feeling a bit awkward.
