Wei Peng led Han Yan to the chore house, where Liu Ye hurriedly ran over and politely asked, ”Senior Brother Wei Peng, what brings you here?”
Wei Peng stared blankly at this form of address, then immediately said, ”Liu Ye, I remember that you didn't call me that in the past, right?”
Liu Ye and Wei Peng's cultivation levels were about the same, but he had reached Foundation Establishment half a month earlier than Wei Peng, so he had always called Wei Peng a disciple all these years.
Senior Brother Wei Peng, what are you saying? I should have called you senior brother a long time ago.” Liu Ye was also a smart man. Although Han Yan had some luck in defeating Zhang He, Daoist Master Hong's attitude was definitely not a moment of confusion. Spiritual Master Hong Daozi ignored Guo Yang's feelings, insisting that Han Yan be her Fourth Senior Brother. This could only mean one thing: he wanted Han Yan to be nurtured as a core disciple.
Core disciples, their futures were limitless. Even the weakest could become a Foundation Establishment Elder, or even a Grand Elder.
There was a saying that goes, a boat rises in the water. With a disciple like Wei Peng, even if he didn't fawn over him, he still couldn't afford to offend him.
Wei Peng did not have much of an expression on his face, but he was secretly delighted in his heart as he said in a deep voice: ”Oh, Junior Brother Liu Ye!” My disciple achieved such a good result today, shouldn't she … ” He raised his right hand and rubbed his fingers together in front of Liu Ye.
Liu Ye was stunned, then smiled and said, ”Yes, of course.” He unwillingly took out a few bottles of medicinal pills and spirit stones from his storage bag and cursed in his heart, ”You old bastard, you actually dared to come here and ask for something from me. If it wasn't for your disciple, I wouldn't have given it to you.”
Wei Peng took the items that Liu Ye indicated as well as the miscellaneous items that he should be collecting. He casually brought them to Han Yan and said, ”You can go back first! I still have to go somewhere else to walk. ” With that, he took out a jade slip from his storage bag and said seriously, ”This is the technique for the first ten levels of Qi Cultivation stage. There are also some mid-tier and low-tier spells. It's fine if you don't want to learn other spells, but you must master the final spell well.
Han Yan put away the jade slip, bid farewell to Wei Peng, then flew off on her flying sword.
Just as she arrived in front of the newly allocated cave dwelling, Han Yan saw a beautiful figure standing there. He thought she had gone to the wrong place and hurriedly looked at the stone monument. There was a big ”4” written on it. This number represented the fourth cave residence. Only the Qi Cultivating Stage fourth ranked disciples had the right to stay here.
At this moment, the graceful figure with her back facing Han Yan seemed to have sensed someone approaching and suddenly turned around.
He turned around and looked her in the eyes. Everything seemed so natural and elegant, as if he had rehearsed it countless times beforehand.
When they looked at each other, Han Yan couldn't help but be startled. What kind of face was this? It was as delicate and lovely as a lotus flower, and its pair of large eyes seemed to be able to speak. Her spotlessly white skin was like the most beautiful crescent moon in the night. His tall and slender figure outlined a perfect curve, making it impossible for others to forget after a single glance.
After a moment of blankness, Han Yan woke up and asked, ”Junior Sister, are you looking for me?” The opponent was only at Qi Disciple level 7. Even though Han Yan's cultivation was lower than his, she had defeated Zhang He in the competition and taken over his position. Other than those three, no matter how strong the Qi Cultivating Stage disciples were, they would still call him Fourth Brother when they saw him.
The woman smiled, walked up to Han Yan and said gently, ”You may not know me, but I still remember you.”
Han Yan didn't think that luck would be given to him. Her feelings had been frustrated when she was young, causing him to almost not believe in love. She said seriously, ”Junior Sister, if there's nothing else, I'll have to enter the cave to cultivate.” As she spoke, she walked in the direction of the cave, passing by the other party without even glancing at him.
The woman's eyes were filled with surprise. In the past, when the male disciples saw her, they would always chase after her with golden light in their eyes. He was either not interested in men, or he was determined. When the woman thought of this, she saw that Han Yan had already walked far away and hurriedly said, ”Wait a moment.”
Han Yan stopped, but didn't look back. ”Junior Sister, if you don't tell me why you're here, I really want to enter the cave.” He felt that the lady before him was a little familiar, as though she had seen her somewhere before. However, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't think of who this woman was.
The woman leisurely walked in front of Han Yan and said in a low voice, ”Fourth Senior Brother, can you help me with one thing?”
”What is it?” Han Yan raised her eyebrows and asked.
The woman sighed and slowly said, ”Fifth senior sister, if you want to make a move on me, I'm afraid …”
Hearing this, Han Yan already understood what the other party was looking for him for. Although killing was not allowed within the sect, as long as they did it cleanly and without leaving any evidence, even if the sect investigated, they would not be able to find anything. Just like Tang Xiaofeng, several other disciples also chased him down and killed him. It was best not to get involved in this matter. After all, he did not know the woman before him.
Han Yan refused without even thinking, ”You'd better look for someone else!”
The woman was really worried. The moment Han Yan started, she quickly said, ”In the entire sect, I only know you.”
