Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder. Qin Yu spun around, but he didn’t see anything behind him.

“Haha, you are little junior-apprentice brother Qin Yu? How about we make a bet? As long as you can find me, I will help you solve your current dilemma. If you can’t find me, you will give me the jade pendant in your hand.”

A voice came from all directions. It was impossible to lock onto it. It seemed that every peach blossom was shaking and emitting this sound.

Qin Yu narrowed his eyes and cupped his hands together, “May I ask which senior-apprentice brother it is?” If someone dared to appear in this peach garden and mess around near the dwelling of a True Saint, it could only be a disciple of Peach Blossom Spring.

“Hehe, little junior-apprentice brother is sly. You want to use this method to lock onto my position? Do you agree with the bet or not? If you do then I’ll tell you.”

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed, “I agree!”

“Hahaha, I thank little junior-apprentice brother for your support. I am honorable master’s sixth seated disciple. You can call me Sixth Senior-apprentice Brother. Now, come and look for me!”

Peach Blossom Spring’s sixth senior-apprentice brother was incredibly talented in concealment methods. Even though Qin Yu tried his best to sense his surroundings, he didn’t find anything at all.

But since he dared to make this bet, he certainly had his own methods.

Closing his eyes as if he was sensing something, Qin Yu stamped his feet and then moved to the side, “Sixth Senior-apprentice Brother, please come out.”

A burst of hilarious laughter suddenly rang out, “Old Six, oh Old Six, I bet you never thought you would have such a day. This little junior-apprentice brother is too fierce; you should give him a lesson!”

These words were filled with elation, revealing a sense of joy as if someone has just ‘fulfilled a great revenge’. With raucous laughter, a big fellow bravely strode forward…this, this person was a truly big fellow.

Besides from other alien races, Qin Yu had never seen such a tall and burly cultivator before. Although there were no sounds for every step he took, Qin Yu could still feel the earth shaking.

This was a feeling that could only be understood and not explained at all.

Blazing blood energy fluctuations billowed through him like a tide, rushing at him like heat waves.

It was like a moving volcano in human form!

The big fellow’s smile was incomparably bright. He reached out a hand and patted Qin Yu’s shoulder, “Little junior-apprentice brother is fierce. I am your fifth senior-apprentice brother. You can call me Iron Mountain.”

Bang –

With a dull ring, Qin Yu became a bit shorter as his legs sunk into the ground.

Iron Mountain’s smile stiffened. He quickly grabbed Qin Yu with both hands and pulled him out from the ground, an awkward expression on his face. “Little junior-apprentice brother, are you alright? I was so excited that I lost control of my strength for a moment. I really am sorry.”

Qin Yu forced a smile. Around half of his body was still numb and aching, and this came from an unintentional pat.

The disciples of Peach Blossom Spring were truly terrifying. This fifth senior-apprentice brother’s strength was simply terrifying, to the point he seemed like a vicious beast in the skin of a human!

Qin Yu shook his body and cupped his hands together, “I’m fine, this little brother can still withstand it. There is no need for fifth senior-apprentice brother to worry.”

Iron Mountain laughed, “Good, good, my little junior-apprentice brother’s body cultivation is not bad! This is the way! As men, we must have strong and tough bodies; only then can we live in the world with our heads held high. Little junior-apprentice brother, don’t you agree?”

Qin Yu squeezed out a smile. He thought that there were likely not many men in the world that could compare to this fifth senior-apprentice brother. Moreover, he hoped he wouldn’t become any further excited, otherwise he really would be vomiting blood.

“Old Six, honorable master is right there; you shouldn’t shame yourself.” As if trying to apologize, Iron Mountain stomped on the ground and took the initiative to speak up for Qin Yu.

“Peh! Fifth Senior-apprentice Brother, don’t talk such nonsense. I have always been willing to admit defeat and have never done anything shameful!”  With an angered shout, a person drilled out from the ground where Qin Yu had stomped a foot earlier. The amazing and strange thing was that in this entire process, the ground didn’t break at all, as if this person was originally a part of the earth.

Standing beside Iron Mountain, these two senior-apprentice brothers suddenly formed a very sharp contrast. One was extremely strong and almost impossibly burly, while the other was thin and emaciated, like a starving ghost. However, his eyes were extremely bright and nimble. It was clear his thoughts were fast and flexible.

Just like that silence just now, if it weren’t for Iron Mountain speaking up, he really might have killed himself rather than accepting defeat.

“Haha, how do you do, little junior-apprentice brother? I was just joking with you, so don’t pay too much attention to it.” Sixth senior-apprentice brother smiled and continued, “My name is Earth Stride, honorable master’s sixth seated disciple. Later on, you will learn that your sixth senior-apprentice brother is a true man who absolutely keeps his word! He definitely isn’t like those people who are large and tall and look as if they are simple and honest.”

Iron Mountain wasn’t angered. He chuckled and said, “That’s right, little junior-apprentice brother, you should remember that Old Sixth is the type that values face the most. Since you have won the bet, he must give you a meeting gift. After all, arranging for you to live somewhere in the peach garden is a task given to us by elder senior-apprentice brother. Your sixth senior-apprentice brother is such a person. How dare he try to use such a situation to deceive you? Old Six, am I right?”

The sixth seated Earth Stride had an extremely wonderful expression on his face right now, as if he really wanted to tear off Iron Mountain’s lips but had to tough it out and pretend as if he didn’t know anything. He coughed and said, “Of course, I am always generous to my little junior-apprentice brothers and sisters…”

Iron Mountain clapped his hands together, “Good, Old Six is such a great person! Little junior-apprentice brother’s jade pendant was given to him by master, so for better or worse, you should take out something of similar value. Hehe, let me tell you something, honorable master is in the courtyard. You should take your time to think over what you bring out, because if it’s something bad, that will be considered as mocking master, and that is a crime of grave disrespect.”

Earth Stride nearly choked to death on his saliva. He wickedly glared at Iron Mountain and grabbed onto Qin Yu’s arm. “Come, come, come, let’s get out of here as fast as we can little junior-apprentice brother. We don’t want to disturb master’s cultivation.”

He grabbed Qin Yu and left, looking as if he was being chased away by a dog.

Uh…this description wasn’t too appropriate. Qin Yu cautiously looked back at the courtyard. Fortunately, there wasn’t any sound at all. It seemed that even a Saint couldn’t sense everything.

“Let big brother Old Six tell you something. Master has actually arranged quite a good place for you.” Earth Stride said with a warm expression as he pulled Qin Yu close to him. He moved quickly, not giving Iron Mountain a chance to interject.

Qin Yu never cared about the bet at all. He just felt that the disciples of Peach Blossom Spring were different from what he imagined, just like the Spring Master.

If they were able to join the sect and become disciples of a True Saint, their cultivations had to be tyrannical. He had personally experienced Iron Mountain’s strength for himself. As for this skinny and emaciated sixth senior-apprentice brother who looked like a starving ghost, just from his tight grip, Qin Yu knew that he wasn’t someone who was easy to mess with.

But their actions were completely inconsistent with the image of high level cultivators. Not to mention that they weren’t aloof or haughty, describing them with the adjectives funny and teasing was more appropriate.

Iron Mountain lightly coughed. Earth Stride gave him a stern look and began speaking even faster, “Little junior-apprentice brother, if you don’t understand anything then just ask me. We don’t have many rules and customs here at Peach Blossom Spring. Just keep a few of the important ones in mind.

“We’ve arrived. Your dwelling is right in front. Let me tell you, the scenery here is truly beautiful. You will definitely be satisfied!”

“Big Brother Qin!”

There was a cry of surprise. Then, Qin Yu who was being dragged by Earth Stride suddenly stumbled and smiled. He thought that he would be able to see her after joining Peach Blossom Spring, but he never expected she would be waiting here.

Shua –

Before she arrived, a fragrance already rushed forward on the wind. Earth Stride’s face stiffened and he hurriedly let go and stepped back. His eyes subconsciously swept over the surroundings.

Iron Mountain shouted out, “Little junior-apprentice brother, be careful!”

But he had spoken too late. A figure had rushed into Qin Yu’s arms. This caused the fifth and sixth senior-apprentice brothers to change their complexions. They thought back to when elder senior-apprentice brother ordered the two of them to help arrange the daily life of their new little junior-apprentice brother. If something happened, the two of them would be to blame.

It seemed they could only brace themselves and act as meat shields today!

Before Iron Mountain and Earth Stride could do anything, a massive shadow covered Qin Yu.

He looked up to see a giant head above him, coming closer.

It was covered in scales, and the horn on it shined with metallic luster. Its giant eyes were filled with the indifference of a life form at the peak of the food chain. It stared at the person in Qin Yu’s arms and growled, its eyes becoming increasingly unfriendly.

Dragon!

To be more accurate, this was a shockingly large and extremely powerful dragon, who released a heart-shaking aura.

Qin Yu squinted as he looked into the eyes of the giant dragon. He patted the person in his arms. “This is the little dragon from back then? He’s grown so large!”

“Mm, that’s him.” Lei Xiaoyu raised her head, her face full of excitement as she stared at the giant beast, “Little Black, don’t be so rude to Big Brother Qin!”

The giant dragon snorted, grievance in his eyes. Didn’t they come to an agreement that she couldn’t call him that in front of outsiders?

Lei Xiaoyu stuck out her tongue. “Sorry, I was too happy when I saw Big Brother Qin, so I forgot.”

The one named Little Black was already quite large. He was a giant dragon who was normally cold in front of others, but now he almost shed tears. Xiaoyu, you’ve changed. You were so good to me before, so why did you forget about me the moment you saw this surname Qin?

Don’t say anything…a broken heart is like shards of glass…mine is also broken!
