Chapter 179 Don’t Involve Me

In addition to selling various magical instruments and treasures and providing specialized instrument refining services, the Instrument Hall also has dedicated personnel to undertake some of the work of building caves and houses.

After Chu Xing left the Dharma Hall, he went to the Equipment Hall and asked a senior brother who was good at building houses to come back and help expand the yard.

Although it was just building a few wooden houses and two small nests, and expanding the area of ​​the courtyard a little, the price was not cheap at all, costing two hundred spirit stones.

The main reason is that all the work has to be done by that senior brother alone, and it takes two or three days to complete it, so the labor cost is relatively expensive.

However, two hundred spirit stones are no longer a big deal to Chu Xing.

After paying the spirit stones, Chu Xing handed the courtyard over to his senior brother.

He brought his family to his master's courtyard, intending to stay with her for two days.

As for the thousand-year-old Fiery Phoenix Vine in the courtyard, Chu Xing was not worried at all.

Just like Master said, no one dares to touch anything on Piaomiao Peak.

It’s best if it’s lost. Maybe when you find it, it will have become two plants.

……

"You brought it with you, my stinking disciple?"

At the gate of the courtyard, Qi Shunan glanced at the Qilin cub with an unfriendly look, obviously still brooding over what happened last time.

The Qilin cub immediately whimpered twice, then shrank its big head and hid behind Chu Xing.

Chu Xing gently pushed his master into the courtyard and said with an apologetic smile:

"Hey... Master, it destroyed the house that time simply because it was hungry. I feed it well every day now, so you can rest assured."

Qi Shunan curled her lips slightly, "Why did you come to see Master?"

"Master," Chu Xing's mouth curled up immediately, revealing an aggrieved expression, "I was deceived by an old man."

"Who is it?" Qi Shunan paused, turned around and looked at him with joy on her face.

Chu Xing complained indignantly:

"An old man from the Dharma Hall not only cheated me out of 120,000 spirit stones, but also pretended to be your master, saying that he taught you."

"Shang Zhengde?" Qi Shunan frowned.

Chu Xing nodded repeatedly, tears welling up in his eyes, "Master, you must make the decision for me."

Qi Shunan turned her head slightly and said with some embarrassment:

"If it's him...it's a bit difficult to deal with."

"Master, can't you beat him?" Chu Xing suggested, "If you can't, you can call your good sisters over and have a mixed doubles match with him."

"Not really," Qi Shunan said, "It's mainly because I'm too familiar with him, so I can't bring myself to do it. My master passed away early, and when I was still young, I got into trouble... well, he was the only one who would help me out when I was bullied."

"Although he didn't teach me how to practice, he did teach me a lot of other things. It's not wrong to say that he taught me everything."

"Then what exactly did he teach you?" Chu Xing was puzzled.

It seems that Master can do nothing except fighting.

Qi Shunan touched his chin and said seriously:

"He's the best at cheating and deceiving people. He taught me many ways to do bad things without being discovered."

Okay.

It turns out that Master has become what he is now, thanks to you, Old Deng!

Chu Xing complained inwardly and said with a bitter face:

"Then I won't be able to get my 120,000 spirit stones back, will I?"

"It's no big deal..."

Qi Shunan was about to offer some words of comfort, but suddenly seemed to think of something, and looked at him with a stern face and asked:

"Didn't I confiscate all your spirit stones last time? Where did you get the spirit stones?"

Chu Xing's heart skipped a beat, and he said calmly:

"Of course I earned it through hard work, but now it's all been swindled away by that old man Deng."

"It's easy for you to lose control of yourself when you have spirit stones on you, so give them to Master to keep for you." Qi Shunan stretched out her hand.

“Master, it’s really gone…” Chu Xing’s face fell.

"Hmm?" Qi Shunan frowned.

Chu Xing honestly took out the remaining 100,000 spirit stones and handed them to her, muttering softly:

"These are what my senior brother gave me to learn magic."

"Didn't I ask Chunfeng to teach you personally? Why does he just slack off?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Shunan's face was filled with displeasure, and she said angrily:

"Hmph, if you don't win first place in the sect celebration, I'll show you how I'll deal with you two."

"Master, why do you care so much about whether you can get the first place?" Chu Xing asked curiously.

"Isn't it just that I got into another argument with those four old men during the last meeting? It's just a meeting, but you keep bragging about your own disciples. Humph!"

As Qi Shunan spoke, the two little apples on her chest swelled up a little bit due to anger.

"It was like everyone was still without an apprentice. I couldn't stand it, so I retorted to them and we had a fight. In the end, I made a bet with them."

"If a disciple from their lineage takes first place, the cultivation resources allocated to our Piaomiao Peak by the sect for the next ten years will be divided equally among them. If a disciple from my Piaomiao Peak takes first place, 25% of the cultivation resources from their four lineages for the next ten years will be ours."

As she spoke, Qi Shunan glanced at Chu Xing and asked, "Do you have confidence, my stinky disciple?"

"I do have confidence," Chu Xing hesitated, "but...our cultivation resources will eventually fall into the hands of old man Lu Yuan. Even if we win, we'll just be working for him for free. Master, is it necessary for you to be so concerned?"

With the Divine Sword Lightning Attraction Technique and Hu Tian around, Chu Xing felt that in a ring match, no one from the younger generation would be his opponent.

"Master, is this just a few resources that you care about?" Qi Shunan squinted at him. "They look down on you so much, shouldn't you fight for Master's honor?"

Chu Xing: “…”

Actually, Master, if you want to save face, you can just say it directly, and there is no need to involve me.

……

At the same time, outside the gate of Yunxiao Mountain.

Shi Liao descended from the clouds and came to several gate-guarding disciples in a dusty state.

Seeing this, a disciple from the Spirit Refining Realm hurried forward and asked,

"Hello, Senior. I wonder why you came to my Yunxiao Sect?"

Shi Liao smiled slightly and said:

"Greetings, my name is Shi Liao, an elder of the Qiangui Sect. I have come here to visit a disciple of your sect named Chu Xing."

Shi Liao did not put on airs and spoke very politely.

The Qiangui Sect had just turned over a new leaf, and as an elder of the Qiangui Sect, he felt it necessary to leave a good impression of being "kind to others" when he went out.

Upon hearing this, the disciples in the Spirit Refining Realm couldn't help but look serious.

The news that Qian Kui Sect had returned to the right path had already spread among all the major right sects, so naturally he had heard about it as well.

But the other party is obviously an elder of a sect, why is he so polite to these few little gatekeeper disciples?

Moreover, he had never heard of Chu Xing. The other party came from thousands of miles away just to see an unknown disciple of Yunxiao Sect.

This is suspicious no matter how you think about it!

Could it be that he is a demonic cultivator who wants to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak into the sect and cause chaos?

The disciples in the Spirit Refining Realm looked at the increasingly kind smile on Shi Liao's face, and became more and more certain of their guess.

He decided not to alert the enemy and to calm the other party down first.
