Chapter 212: Reputation Damaged!
Regarding his master's suggestion to boil it in water, Li Xingtian naturally felt it was somewhat wasteful.
After all, this thing looked like no ordinary product at first glance; at the very least, selling it would be better than eating it.
Li Xingtian first looked at his own eldest senior sister, only to discover that his eldest senior sister revealed an expression of agreement.
Hmm...
Li Xingtian thought about it a little more carefully; boiling it in water was actually quite good too.
Lin Luoyu turned from the corridor into the main hall, looking at the master, eldest senior sister, and second senior brother inside the hall, who were all surrounding and observing a large egg with unique patterns from three sides.
Judging by the appearance, they seemed to be holding a serious meeting regarding this large egg.
This... have I come at the wrong time?
In any case, regarding that [Sword of Vastness] book, Lin Luoyu was not particularly anxious.
After all, judging by the obscurity of the first read, Lin Luoyu felt it would trouble the senior sister for at least half a month.
There was really no need to rush.
However, looking at the three people surrounding a giant egg...
Actually, whether it was the master or the eldest senior sister, when taken out individually, Lin Luoyu felt that anyone was reliable.
Although she did not have much contact with the second senior brother, when they interacted privately occasionally, she could also feel the second senior brother's reliability; occasionally, for some problems, the second senior brother could also solve them appropriately.
Most importantly, the second senior brother had ventured into Central State alone.
However, when these three gathered together.
Lin Luoyu always felt that it seemed... things started to get a bit wrong.
It was as if all three people had changed their state.
Starting from a reliable state, they were drifting a bit toward the state of someone like Cui Hao.
To use the master's words, they were starting to engage in antics.
Especially the eldest senior sister, who changed from an aloof state when meeting alone to somewhat resembling a girl next door.
Not knowing why, looking at the three surrounding the large egg, Lin Luoyu had an intuition.
The master and the others were definitely not discussing any good ideas.
Just as Lin Luoyu did not want to disturb the three and prepared to leave first, the master's voice came from behind.
"Why come and then leave? Is there something you need help with?"
Hearing this, Lin Luoyu turned around again and cupped her hands, saying: "I saw that the master seemed to be busy..."
"Then you came just at the right time; I just happen to be finished." Chu Xingchen smiled and signaled for Lin Luoyu to come in and sit.
Lin Luoyu nodded lightly, stepped into the hall, first greeted Li Yingling and Li Xingtian, and then casually found a seat to sit down.
"The [Sword of Vastness] given by the master is a bit incomprehensible, so I plan to ask the senior sister."
Chu Xingchen nodded with understanding and teased with a smile: "Eldest apprentice, calling you."
Li Yingling gently stroked the egg and gently sighed; finding information was not difficult, but teaching junior brothers and sisters was somewhat harder.
However, as the eldest senior sister, solving doubts for junior brothers and sisters was also part of her duty.
Li Yingling looked at her fourth junior sister with average intelligence: "Come on, junior sister, what don't you understand?"
Lin Luoyu took out that [Sword of Vastness] from her spatial ring. She did not dare to raise her head to look at her eldest senior sister, but looked at the book cover instead, her voice a bit soft:
"Except for the first few pages... I don't understand much of the rest."
Li Yingling's outstretched hand froze for a moment, but she still reached out to receive it. She did not open this divine ability, but looked at the master with her gaze and said:
"As the master, you can't always let me teach junior brothers and sisters, right? This time, the master must join in too."
Chu Xingchen first put the egg into the system space, while conveniently hooking Li Xingtian, who was preparing to run away, by the side:
"What are you saying? Isn't it because Luoyu is close to you that she likes to look for you? This time, the three of us will teach one."
Li Xingtian originally saw that the situation was not right and intended to withdraw first; after all, the process of the eldest senior sister teaching Chen Baiqing was still vivid in his mind.
The eldest senior sister, who was too much of a genius, might get impatient while teaching later and implicate him as well.
Li Xingtian did not want to suffer an unexpected disaster.
But unfortunately, Li Xingtian did not expect that the master would be quick-eyed and fast-handed again, pressing him down.
Although he was on the best of terms with the master in the world, this feeling of being forced into a corner...
Li Xingtian could only cast a slightly helpless look toward his own master.
Chu Xingchen did not care about Li Xingtian's gaze at all, dragging Li Xingtian as he walked toward Lin Luoyu.
Lin Luoyu was also a bit stunned at this moment. For one [Sword of Vastness] book, the three top combat powers of her sect were personally teaching her?
For a moment, Lin Luoyu could not distinguish whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
Chu Xingchen naturally had confidence; after Soul Formation, there was a bonus to the understanding of the Great Dao.
One could to a certain extent peek into the essence of all things.
Furthermore, Li Yingling's divine abilities would also feed back to Chu Xingchen; regarding sword-type divine abilities, he would more or less comprehend by analogy.
At the very least, he should be stronger than Li Xingtian beside him!
Li Yingling nodded in satisfaction, not paying attention to Lin Luoyu whose face was somewhat tense, and opened this Sword of Vastness.
Chu Xingchen dragged Li Xingtian and squeezed together to look as well.
Before they could finish flipping through this divine ability, Ning Qianqian's voice came from outside the hall:
"Sect Master, the little monk from Zen Forest Temple has arrived."
Hearing this, Chu Xingchen instantly showed a look of regret on his face, but his body quickly straightened up, wanting to walk outward:
"You teach first; I will go see what urgent matter Yuankong has come to find me for."
Li Xingtian grabbed his master's shoulder with his backhand: "Master, I will go with you!"
Chu Xingchen directly pushed away the hand of this rebellious apprentice:
"You stay here with your eldest senior sister..."
Li Yingling closed the [Sword of Vastness], reached out to grab Chu Xingchen's other shoulder, and narrowed her eyes slightly, saying:
"No need! The four of us will go together!"
Lin Luoyu looked at the master and the other two, thinking about the four people mentioned by the eldest senior sister.
Ning Qianqian was at this moment leading Yuankong into the hall.
At this moment, looking at the somewhat strange atmosphere inside the hall.
The Sect Master was turning his face sideways, seemingly glaring at Li Xingtian, while Li Xingtian still maintained that expression of being undisturbed, one hand grabbing the Sect Master's shoulder.
Li Yingling, on the other hand, reached out to grab the master's other shoulder, looking at the Sect Master and Li Xingtian with an unfriendly gaze.
Lin Luoyu, on the other hand, was sitting properly on the chair, her gaze cautiously sizing up the three people in front of her.
Ning Qianqian decisively reached out to signal Yuankong behind her to do as he pleased, then immediately turned around and retreated at combat speed, planning to come back later to see what the situation was.
Yuankong standing at the door also looked at this scene somewhat dumbfounded.
Since Chu Xingchen's bottom line had already been experienced once by Yuankong, facing the current scene, he did not dare to walk in either.
Watching Ning Qianqian's figure turning around and leaving without hesitation, Yuankong was just planning to reach out to stop her and find an excuse to retreat first.
Chu Xingchen's voice came from inside the hall:
"Isn't this little Yuankong? You're still so small? If there's something, come in and talk about it."
At this moment, Yuankong already somewhat possessed the demeanor of the former cute little novice monk; however, compared to before, one could still obviously feel he was older by one or two years.
Facing Chu Xingchen's invitation, Yuankong quickly turned around and at the same time hurriedly opened his mouth to say:
"Nothing..."
Before the words were finished, a huge suction force directly sucked Yuankong into the hall.
After Yuankong sat down in a daze, looking at the somewhat tiger-like staring gazes of Chu Xingchen and the other two in front of him, he instantly started to regret it in his heart.
Damnable!
I didn't pray for the Buddha beads' blessing when I went out today. Next time I come here, I must find a Taoist priest setting up a stall on the street to tell my fortune, and then decide whether to come here!
Chu Xingchen slightly frowned his brows and lightly raised an eyebrow:
"Running from so far away just to say one sentence: nothing's wrong?"
"There... is also something I need to tell you."
Chu Xingchen casually patted Yuankong's little head, which looked a bit cute again, his tone somewhat threatening:
"You, little Yuankong, are not honest! Speak quickly and let me hear what it is."
Yuankong covered his forehead aggrievedly:
"Li Zi has woken up..."
"Li Zi?" Chu Xingchen was stunned when he heard this, "Who is that?"
Li Yingling reacted quickly upon hearing this, her gaze looking teasingly at her second junior brother as she said:
"Master, it's that comatose lover of the second junior brother!"
Lin Luoyu heard this and her gaze also looked surprisedly at Li Xingtian.
Really or fake? Does the second senior brother also have a lover?
Li Xingtian: "..."
What is this all about? He and Li Zi couldn't even be considered friends, and yet they are dragging in a lover?
Li Xingtian instantly felt his reputation was damaged!
