Chapter 8: First Elder of the Green Cloud Peak’s Servant Quarters, Mu Qing
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qi Ming was naturally nervous. After all, he was also considered a ‘spy from the Demon Sect’ back then. He had only left halfway. The reason why these servant disciples were discovered and executed was also related to Qi Ming.
Of course, the reason why Mu Qing had executed these 108 servant disciples in front of everyone was naturally to intimidate the servant disciples of the four classes and make them feel reverence.
As for whether there were any other thoughts or schemes, Qi Ming was not sure yet.
Not long after, the 108 corpses on the square of the Green Cloud Peak’s servant quarters were dealt with, leaving only the dried blood on the ground and the faint smell of blood in the air.
“The basic requirement of the Outer Sect Assessment is to reach the third level of Qi Refinement. Therefore, the servant disciples who have yet to reach the third level of Qi Refinement have to work harder.”
“Of course, even if you haven’t reached the third-stage Qi Refinement realm and can’t enter the outer sect of the Green Cloud Peak, although you will be expelled from the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, you can still join the faction in the ‘mortal world’ and help manage the businesses of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”
Mu Qing had his hands behind his back. He had just personally slaughtered 108 servant disciples, but his expression did not change. He did not take it to heart and continued, “Although in the mortal world, there is no such good environment as the Green Cloud Peak, you can still continue cultivating.”
“Perhaps if you’re lucky, you can even establish a cultivation family.”
“In the countless years of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, there were also a few who found opportunities in the ‘mortal world’ after being expelled from the sect. They rose step by step and eventually became a first generation elder of the sect in their family.”
“So, no matter what, on the path of cultivation, you cannot give up easily. You have to learn to sail against the current and face the difficulties head-on. You also have to understand that you’ll fall behind if you don’t work hard.”
“After listening to the First Elder’s teachings today, all the disciples are deeply inspired.”
“This disciple has learned much.”
“…”
The servant disciples of the four classes praised.
“Very good, very good.”
Mu Qing laughed heartily, but his gaze landed on the inconspicuous Qi Ming among the servant disciples, “Qi Ming, come with me.”
“The rest of you can leave.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMu Qing looked deeply at Qi Ming before turning to leave.
“Everyone, leave.”
“Leave.”
“…”
The elders shouted.
“Qi Ming, follow us.” The thin elder scolded softly.
“Yes.”
Qi Ming bowed. He was nervous, but he still quickened his pace. Under the gazes of the surrounding servant disciples, he followed Mu Qing and left.
“Boss was actually called over by First Elder Mu Qing.”
“Boss is Boss after all. We can’t compare to him.”
“I wonder why First Elder Mu Qing called Boss over?”
“It must be a good thing!”
“That’s right, that’s right.”
“…”
Zhu Xiaoxian and the others discussed among themselves, their eyes filled with envy and reverence. Only Ye Dun frowned. Thinking of how the residence had been destroyed, he felt that things were not simple.
The other servant disciples were also discussing matters regarding Qi Ming.
After all, in the four major servant quarters of Green Cloud Peak, First Elder Mu Qing was in charge of all of them. If First Elder Mu Qing called Qi Ming away in front of all the servant disciples, it would naturally attract the attention of all the disciples.
For a moment, Qi Ming’s reputation in the entire Green Cloud Peak’s servant quarters rose.
He lowered his head slightly and followed behind Mu Qing. He was about two meters away and did not speak, but he was thinking about many things.
Since Mu Qing had called him over in front of all the servant disciples, he definitely wouldn’t harm him. Otherwise, if something happened to him, Mu Qing would definitely be the first to be suspected.
However…
Why did Mu Qing call him over?
While thinking, Qi Ming followed Mu Qing to a courtyard. This was Mu Qing’s independent courtyard in the Green Cloud Peak’s servant quarters. The surroundings were filled with birds and flowers, and there was abundant spiritual qi.
Moreover…
Not far away, Qi Ming saw two medicinal fields. There were several valuable spiritual herbs planted in them. The leaves swayed and shone brightly.
“Come in.” Mu Qing said.
“Yes.”
Qi Ming followed carefully into the courtyard and arrived at the guest hall. Mu Qing sat down at the main seat while Qi Ming was given a guest seat.
“Serve the tea.” Mu Qing shouted.
“Yes, Master.”
Qi Ming saw two young girls around 18 years old walking over. They brewed tea and placed it respectfully beside Qi Ming.
“You can leave.” Mu Qing waved his hand and signaled.
“Yes.” The two beautiful girls bowed and left the hall.
They closed the door and only Qi Ming and Mu Qing were left in the hall.
Mu Qing didn’t say anything. He only picked up the teacup and took a few sips.
“Good tea.” Mu Qing praised.
“…”
Qi Ming did not speak nor drink his tea.
“Why aren’t you drinking?”
Mu Qing looked at Qi Ming and said, “This is not tea from the mortal world. It’s spirit tea. The tea leaves used are the tea leaves of the Water Spiritual Tea Tree. It can increase your spirit energy.”
“Thank you for the tea, First Elder.”
Qi Ming cupped his hands and bowed. Then, he raised his teacup and drank it in one gulp. The tea entered his stomach and there was indeed a warm current. It turned into wisps of spirit energy and fused into his body.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s indeed good tea.” Qi Ming did not know how to savor tea, but he still said.
Mu Qing smiled faintly, “Qi Ming, you are indeed a part of the reason why we were able to capture the spies from the Demon Sect. However, I really didn’t expect that you would already be able to resolve the Heart Devouring Gu.”
“First Elder, I…” Qi Ming hesitated.
Mu Qing waved his hand. “You don’t have to explain, I know you’re hiding something, but I don’t care.”
“Based on my guess, that demoness from the Demon Sect would not find trouble with you for no reason.”
“This must be because you joined before and were forced to consume the ‘Blood Ghost Pill’. However, you knew that the ‘Blood Ghost Pill’ hid the ‘Heart Devouring Gu’. Although you were lucky enough to resolve the poison, you were targeted by the demoness who wanted to kill you.”
“Fortunately, several elders of the D-Class Servant Quarters discovered you in time. Otherwise, you would have already been killed by the demoness.”
“First Elder is very perceptive.”
Qi Ming quickly said, “I don’t have anything to add. It was not easy to turn around and change your ways. Come forward.”
“Yes.” Qi Ming stood up and walked in front of Mu Qing.
“Extend your right hand.” Mu Qing continued.
“Yes.” Qi Ming stretched out his right hand.
Then, Mu Qing placed his finger on Qi Ming’s pulse. He closed her eyes slightly and Qi Ming felt a very condensed spirit energy. It was like a strand of hair. Through his pulse, it followed his meridians and entered his dantian.
Qi Ming did not resist. historical
“Fifth level Qi Refinement realm!!!”
Mu Qing’s eyes widened in disbelief. He stared at Qi Ming. “You… You… You actually reached the fifth level of Qi Refinement…”
Mu Qing gasped.
“Yes.” Qi Ming naturally did not deny it.
In fact, Qi Ming had cultivated continuously for three days under the fourfold increase. Only then did he break through from the late-stage of the fourth level Qi Refinement realm to the early-stage of the fifth level.
“Hahaha…”
After Mu Qing recovered from his shock, he immediately laughed out loud, “Good, good, good. I was already guessing that you must be quite strong to be able to get rid of the Heart Devouring Gu. I didn’t expect that you’re already at the fifth level of Qi Refinement.”
“Good! Very good!”
“I really didn’t expect that the Green Cloud Peak would have a hidden dragon like you.. This way, in this Outer Sect Assessment, my Green Cloud Peak can finally perform well.”
