Chapter 8 – Get Used To It

The prevalence of The Mysterious Senior Brother Threat Theory is not a strange thing.

After all, Yu Yue is the best of the new generation of disciples in the Sword Sect, a figure who makes the rest of the disciples look up to him.

They were all chasing Yu Yue’s back, yet Yu Yue said that with all his might, he could only catch up with this senior brother’s shadow, so would they not even be able to see the shadow?

Who would have thought that such cultivation wizards would still exist among the 300 subordinate sects of my Sword Sect!

Respectable, frightening, lamentable!

A huge black shadow loomed over the hearts of the Sword Sect’s disciples, and they finally understood why Yu Yue was so desperate despite being so outstanding.

Naturally, all of Yu Yue’s actions could not be hidden from Ning Ying’s eyes.

And Elder Ning Ying was happy to see this scene.

“This is the power of friendship!” She thought it was friendship anyway.

Going back in time, Ning Ying would go to the Mo Sect several times a year, and occasionally asked Yu Yue if he wanted to go with her, and Yu Yue made excuses to refuse each time.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to see Lu Chaoge, but he was afraid of seeing Lu Chaoge.

He was afraid that he had long been left behind by Lu Chaoge.

He wanted to be more diligent and work harder.

Until he was qualified to walk alongside him and meet him again!

But the incident happened without warning, and Lu Chaoge’s parents lost their lives.

Yu Yue traveled with Ning Ying to the Mo Sect to pay tribute before they were reunited again.

“Primordial… Primordial Realm Completion!?”

“He’s actually only at the Great Perfection of the Primordial Realm!!!”

“How could he not even be able to break through the Primordial Realm!!!”

Yu Yue began to doubt himself.

What on earth have I been doing all these years?

What exactly was I chasing after?

And what was I afraid of?

What was the point of all these years of hard work and cultivation to catch up!

Yu Yue’s Dao Heart shook so hard that his faith collapsed.

He cracked open.

——

It is said that admiration for someone can turn into hatred.

Later on, Yu Yue showed signs of turning from a fan to a hater.

He gradually transformed from Lu Chaoge’s brain-dead fan to his number one hater.

But even so, he still couldn’t help but follow him.

It couldn’t be helped, that was the power of childhood shadows.

Since then, he would find excuses to follow Ning Ying to the Mo Sect every year. Each time, he pretended not to care, while actually observing Lu Chaoge’s cultivation level.

In the Tianxuan Realm, there had also been that phenomenon of being stuck at a certain bottleneck for a long time and then breaking through several realms in a single day.

For example, the current Sword Sovereign of the Sword Sect was stuck at the Completion of the Third Realm for ten years, then overnight, he comprehended the Sword Dao and stepped into the Fourth Realm when the sun rose, and by the time the sun set, he was a great practitioner of the Fifth Realm.

Deep inside Yu Yue’s heart was a voice – would Lu Chaoge be the same?

But time waited for no one, Yu Yue had already cultivated to the Third Realm, and Lu Chaoge was still standing still.

It was reasonable to say that the Primordial Realm was the easiest, and even the worst wastrel should have broken through, right?

He even wondered if Lu Chaoge had broken the record for being the slowest in the Tianxuan Realm…

Yu Yue began to feel how stupid he was.

On a leaf boat, Yu Yue’s eyes were fixed on Lu Chaoge’s back as he said in his mind, “Are you finally going to break the realm?”

“Heh, what the hell am I caring about, even if he breaks the first realm, he would still just be a First Realm practitioner, ah.”

——

The leaf boat controlled by Lu Dongli continued to move forward in a not too high, not too low, not too fast, not too slow manner.

She did not notice that someone was trailing behind her and was in a wonderful mood at the moment.

How could she not be happy that a new disciple with exceptional qualifications had been accepted and that her brother was finally about to break through the Primordial Realm?

Lu Chaoge looked at the smile on his sister’s face and suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he asked, “Lu Dongli, are you hiding your cultivation!”

“A little, a little.” Lu Dongli raised her right hand and used her thumb and forefinger to draw a small distance.

In her opinion, isn’t it normal to go out and hide one’s cultivation and hide a few cards in her hands?

She’s a girl, what’s wrong with putting on a few extra layers of outerwear to prevent her from getting naked?

Lu Chaoge took a deep breath and questioned, “Elder Lu Dongli, this seat is asking you once again seriously, do you hide your cultivation under my nose!”

Lu Dongli, who was controlling the leaf boat, trembled slightly, turned her head around, and smiled brightly at Lu Chaoge, saying, “How… how could that be? Haha, hahaha!”

The corners of Lu Chaoge’s mouth twitched slightly as he said in his heart, “Men really do have to rely on themselves, you can’t rely on your sister!”

With Little Li’s nature, the Mo Sect couldn’t expect to rely on her to skyrocket their reputation value.

If the conditions allowed, she would probably live forever, wouldn’t she?

Xiao Qiu opened her big eyes, glancing at her beautiful master and her handsome uncle for one moment, not quite understanding what they were saying, but finding it particularly interesting.

The closed gourd1, Hei Ting, did not change his expression in the slightest. He had been a disciple for many years and was already used to the two siblings with opposite personalities.

The light boat flew through the air for another hour before arriving at the Flame Forest.

The crowd landed at the outskirts of the Flame Forest and did not fly in too deep.

Some monsters could also fly, and it meant that it wasn’t safe to fly through the air.

After entering the Flame Forest, Lu Dongli scouted the way ahead.

She walked slowly, making sure that it was 100% safe ahead before she made a move.

Lu Chaoge, on the other hand, followed behind his sister carelessly as he waited for the quest system to give him a prompt.

The level 10 advancement quest had a single task, which he had done in his previous life, and that was to kill monsters!

Although there were four difficulty levels, namely Yellow, Blue, Purple, and Orange, the quests were all about killing monsters.

The quest system will prompt you when you encounter a suitable monster and will give you the coordinates to locate the monster directly, which was particularly convenient.

The only thing is that you have to complete the quest on your own and you can’t ask for any help.

If a group of people took turns, the quest system would simply rule it as invalid.

“According to reason, an Orange-Ranked advancement quest should involve soloing a level 10 Boss-Ranked wild monster.” Lu Chaoge thought.

Just like there were strong and weak cultivators of the same level, the monsters in the Tianxuan Realm, at the same level, were also divided into [Ordinary Level], [Elite Level], [Quasi-Boss Level], and [Boss Level].

“It’s just that, a level 10 Boss, it doesn’t exist at all, right?” Lu Chaoge thought.

After all, the strong ones were all strong in a hundred different ways, and the weak ones were all equally weak.

With a lower level, the difference between the same level would not be too big.

Therefore, even for an Orange-ranked quest, the standard was just to kill a single [Quasi-Boss Ranked] monster.

“I don’t know if there are any within the Flame Forest that meet the criteria.” Lu Chaoge looked around, and the quest prompt was saying that could come to the Flame Forest to try their luck.

The crowd walked forward for a while longer, Lu Dongli suddenly stopped and said in surprise, “Today’s luck was so good that they found the Marrow Cleansing Herb so quickly, and they found three of them in one breath!”

Not far ahead, there were three Marrow Cleansing Herbs growing together.

Xiao Qiu couldn’t help but gulp as she smelled the faint aroma of the Marrow Cleansing Spirit Grass.

“This grass smells like it’s delicious.” She thought in her mind.

Lu Dongli was about to move forward when she jerked to a halt.

“Something’s going on!”

“It’s a wild monster!”

Her divine sense instantly went full blast, sending it straight out in all directions.

She had to determine the exact strength of the beast with the utmost efficiency, and then make a choice with lightning speed – fight or run!

The reason for this efficiency was that if she was going to fight, she would conserve her divine sense to ensure that she would have enough to use in battle later.

The reason for making a decision quickly is that if you can’t beat them, then you can run away immediately.

You know, the worst-case scenario is – not only can you not fight, but you also can’t run!

But before Lu Dongli could make a choice, a big hand suddenly reached forward.

Lu Chaoge was already standing in front of the group and raised his right arm to keep them behind him.

The naive and innocent Xiao Qiu looked at the magnificent back of the Sect Leader, and felt so safe!

It was the handsome and brave Sect Leader she had imagined.

But Lu Dongli couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth and wail in her heart.

She knew very well about her brother’s dragging disease…

I’m afraid it’s going to happen again!
