Chapter 643: Chapter 303: Senior Brother in a Dress

A stick of incense later.

A thousand miles away from Qinghe City, in a dense forest by a small stream.

"Taoist Friend Zhu, have some water."

"Thank you."

"Little Sister Wei Wan, you should drink some too."

"Thank you, Sister."

"Senior Brother Ming, there’s still water here, have a drink? Senior Brother Ming!"

Wei Wan handed over water pouches to Zhu Lin and Wei Wan and then shouted towards a small grove tens of yards away.

A moment later, a rough voice, awkwardly, responded:

"I-I don’t need it!"

Su Xin walked over with a water pouch, softly saying, "Senior Brother Ming, don’t be shy, desperate times call for desperate measures; none of us will laugh at you."

"Really?"

"Really!"

Hearing Su Xin’s assurance, the forest shook for a moment, and finally, a burly man in a long dress emerged.

His build was so large and muscular that the long dress, despite being tall and slender, was too small for him, with many areas tightly hugging his muscles, outlining them very clearly.

It could be said the shame level was off the charts.

Ming Hu covered his chest with both hands, walking bashfully like a little girl, stopping in front of Su Xin.

Su Xin smiled slightly, handing him the water pouch: "See, no one’s laughing at you, right?"

Pfft!

Wei Wan and Zhu Lin couldn’t hold back anymore and burst out laughing.

"You, you are too much!"

Ming Hu clutched his chest and ran back into the woods.

Su Xin helplessly glanced at Wei Wan and Zhu Lin; the two quickly closed their mouths, and Su Xin walked into the woods, gently persuading Ming Hu until he finally gathered enough courage to walk out wearing the dress once more.

Wei Wan and Zhu Lin turned their heads away, not daring to look, afraid they’d laugh again.

After the four rested for a moment, they began discussing their next move.

Su Xin said, "We should still get back to Zhenyang Sect promptly and report this to my master."

Wei Wan said, "If I were Li Qinghe, knowing we are from Zhenyang Sect, I would definitely wait on the necessary path from Qinghe City to Zhenyang Sect."

Su Xin thought for a moment, sighing, "Sister, you’re right. If so, where should we go?"

Zhu Lin suggested, "Why don’t we head south to Celestial Phoenix Mountain?"

Ming Hu, tugging at his dress, sat down on the ground, "That Black Phoenix is one of your Phoenix Race, isn’t going to Celestial Phoenix Mountain just walking into a trap?"

Zhu Lin quickly said, "Taoist Friend Ming, you’ve misunderstood, our Phoenix Race are descendants of Auspicious Beasts, such dark and sinister demonic beasts would never appear! She, she..."

At the end, she was at a loss for words.

After all, the Black Phoenix’s aura was too similar to the Ancient Phoenix, even Zhu Lin couldn’t dispute it.

Ming Hu suddenly said, "Junior Sister Su, why don’t you come with me to Thunder Sword Sect?"

"Thunder Sword Sect?"

The three women looked at him in astonishment, Ming Hu said:

"This place is closest to Thunder Sword Sect. Since that big black bird will block us on the road east, we’ll just take the opposite approach. Once we’re inside Thunder Sword Sect, even an Ancient Divine Beast wouldn’t dare to come in."

Su Xin’s eyes focused, hesitating slightly.

After all, the current relationship between Thunder Sword Sect and Zhenyang Sect is hard to define as friend or foe, and as a Commanding Disciple of Zhenyang Sect, going to Thunder Sword Sect at this time might not be appropriate.

Wei Wan said, "Sister, with the Immortal Flying Invitation and the Black Phoenix’s emergence, the world might be unable to maintain balance, clinging to sect distinctions has no meaning anymore."

Su Xin paused, dazedly looking at Wei Wan, and Ming Hu echoed beside her:

"Junior Sister Wei is right, Junior Sister Su, if we don’t leave, what if the big black bird catches up to us?"

Su Xin bowed her head in thought, after a moment, she raised her head:

"Alright, we’ll go to Thunder Sword Sect!"

Two hours later.

Dawn was breaking.

A figure cloaked in black flames stood on the road necessary to pass from Qinghe City to Zhenyang Sect.

After waiting for another moment, this terrifying figure cursed in anger:

"Damn it, those cunning bastards!"

With a flash, she transformed into a streak of black light, headed towards Thunder Sword Sect.

...

Morning.

Zhenyang Sect.

"Senior Sister Cheng."

"Good morning, Senior Sister Cheng."

"Mm, go ahead and patrol."

Cheng Qingyu walked out of her small courtyard, exhausted, several Inner Sect Disciples already waiting outside.

Zhenyang Sect had various Steward Disciples lead the Inner Sect Disciples to patrol the entire mountain daily.

Today it was Cheng Qingyu’s turn to lead the patrol.

After sensing that familiar terrifying aura last night, although she received a message from her mother, Cheng Qingyu still felt unsettled, finding it hard to meditate and cultivate at night.

She tossed and turned until morning, leaving her physically and mentally exhausted.

At this troublesome time, the patrol duties couldn’t be delayed, so Cheng Qingyu, holding in her frustration, led the Inner Sect Disciples to patrol.

Just stepping out from the female disciples’ residence, she saw Liu Su and Yun Wu returning from outside.

Cheng Qingyu narrowed her eyes immediately. Liu Su, needless to say, had a direct conflict with her on Cyan Lotus Mountain, and Xiaowu had contradicted her in Qiluo Garden before.

Considering her bad mood today, she decided to take them as her outlet.

Over there, after training at Lonely Sword Cliff with Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe, Liu Su and Yun Wu had finished at dawn, planning to return to their residence for some rest.

Seeing Cheng Qingyu from afar, Liu Su’s eyes turned cold, but she didn’t intend to pay attention to her, pulling Yun Wu with her as they intended to walk past.

"Stop."

Cheng Qingyu snorted coldly, blocking their path.

Yun Wu, having almost been whipped by Cheng Qingyu in Qiluo Garden before, felt a bit scared, hiding behind Liu Su. Liu Su glanced at Cheng Qingyu:

"What do you want? Good dogs don’t block the way."

Cheng Qingyu coldly said, "How bold! As a Steward Disciple, I outrank you, an Inner Sect Disciple, yet you refuse to greet me and speak rudely! According to sect rules, you should be punished with fifteen lashings!"

Liu Su chuckled, "Senior Sister Cheng is quite authoritative, the Sect Leader ordered Steward Disciples to patrol daily, to protect the sect’s disciples, encouraging everyone to unite against external threats."

"Yet here you are, a Steward Disciple, bullying fellow disciples, intending to incite internal conflict. Cheng Qingyu, what exactly are you up to?"

Liu Su’s quick and sharp words were righteous, and the surrounding Zhenyang Sect disciples were left stunned.

Cheng Qingyu pointed at her, "Who’s trying to incite internal conflict? What nonsense are you spouting?!"

Liu Su dismissively said, "Since Senior Sister Cheng has no ill intentions, hurry and patrol, don’t waste time here."

"You!"

Unable to out-argue her, Cheng Qingyu flushed with anger, drawing her Emerald Immortal Sword with a swish:

"How bold, He Su, daring to challenge your superiors, today I’ll discipline you on behalf of the elders!"

Suddenly, spiritual power surged around Cheng Qingyu, nearly knocking the surrounding Inner Sect Disciples off balance, their faces showing shock:

"Nascent Soul, Second-Layer?!"

"Senior Sister Cheng actually reached Nascent Soul?"

Under the awestruck eyes of many, Cheng Qingyu coldly looked at Liu Su: "If you kneel and beg for forgiveness, I might spare you from the crime of disrespect."
