Chapter 143 Little Qiong, My “Brother” Lin

　　This grandmaster seems to be more troublesome than what I expected of the worst-case scenario that I had previously assumed…

　　Li Changshou looked at his master, who was sighing and groaning on the cloud in front of him with a cold expression on his face. It was obvious that he was trying to control his anger. A thought flashed through his mind.

　　When Li Changshou first entered the sect, he looked at the memorial tablets in his master’s straw hut and subconsciously treated Unfettered Lin Jiang as an amiable-looking old Daoist.

　　Of course, it was not important whether he was male or female.

　　However… the grandmaster, Jiang Lin’er, had a young girl’s face and figure. There was a high chance that she had long fallen for someone and had fixed her appearance and figure a long time ago.

　　That could be the cause and effect of the Love Tribulation.

　　In order to break through, she went out for training. She then returned to protect herself. She had been injured and exhausted, but she had not completely healed her own wounds that left a faint mark on her body as if they were meritorious.

　　That meant that it was very likely that his Grandmaster already had another “circle”. That would involve more karma.

　　Moreover, she obviously didn’t have a good temper. She had a fierce gaze, flat chest, and a short stature…

　　Ahem, she seems to have mixed with something extraordinary.

　　Li Changshou looked at Uncle-Master Jiu Wu and said, “Uncle-Master, quickly go to Pill Tripod Peak and invite Elder Wan Linyun to rush to the Immortal Downpour Peak.”

　　Jiu Wu was confused. “Why do you want that toxic elder to go to the Immortal Downpour Peak?”

　　Li Changshou said via voice transmission, “To stop the fight later.”

　　Jiu Wu’s short and powerful eyebrows furrowed. Very quickly, he appeared enlightened and pulled his Dao companion.

　　Jiu Wu stood on his tiptoes and Jiu Shi lowered her body. The two of them whispered something in each other’s ears. Jiu Wu then turned around and rode a cloud. He rushed towards Pill Tripod Peak, while Jiu Shi flew towards Heaven-Breaking Peak.

　　On the other side, old Daoist priest Qi Yuan simply told his master what happened back then…

　　Jiang Lin’er clenched her fists slightly and gritted her teeth.

　　“Second Disciple, is that what I taught you? Do you just go when someone asks you out?”

　　Qi Yuan lowered his head and sighed. He could only say, “I am foolish. Please punish me, Master!”

　　“I’m going back to the peak to reflect on myself,” Jiang Lin’er said calmly. “I’m going to meet a few old friends and come back to lecture you regarding this matter.”

　　“Well… yes.”

　　Old Daoist priest Qi Yuan replied in a trembling voice. He immediately stood up and turned around to look at his two disciples.

　　“Master, I still have two disciples… Changshou, Ling’e, don’t just stand there. Hurry up and offer your greetings!”

　　Hence, Li Changshou and Ling’e rode the clouds and bowed together.

　　Qi Refinement cultivators were particular about kneeling to heaven and earth, kneeling to the Saints. If not for their emotions, they usually would not bow to anyone directly. They would usually just perform Dao salutes.

　　“Greetings, Grandmaster.”

　　“Second Disciple, you took in disciples?”

　　Jiang Lin’er forced a smile and temporarily suppressed her anger.

　　She took out two jade rings from her waist and wrapped them with immortal power before handing them to Li Changshou and Ling’e. She tried her best to show off her kindness and gentleness as their grandmaster.

　　At a close distance, Jiang Lin’er’s face could be considered outstanding.

　　However, the murderous aura on her body was too strong. Ling’e did not dare to look at her at all.

　　Jiang Lin’er said, “It’s my first time being a Grandmaster. I don’t know what I should say to you guys. Your master is a Turbid Immortal. You guys have suffered. This was originally prepared for your master and aunt-master. I’ll give it to you two now. Let’s talk later. You guys go back to the peak with your master. I’ll go handle some matters.”

　　With that, Jiang Lin’er only took a few glances at Lingle and Li Changshou. She took a step forward and displayed a rather brilliant movement technique before landing in front of the gate.

　　The two elders who had welcomed her back realized that something was wrong with Jiang Lin’er and immediately followed her from behind.

　　One of the elders said, “Disciple-Niece Jiang Lin’er, the sect has already punished the culprit…”

　　Jiang Lin’er did not reply and walked quickly to the gate. Behind the gate, the light wall of the mountain-protecting array formation flickered gently. The immortal guarding the gate hesitated, unsure if he should let her in.

　　Jiang Lin’er said calmly, “Back when I left the sect, I received permission from the sect to do so. Now that I have broken through and returned, does the sect despise me for being stained with blood?”.

　　“Well…”

　　The two old immortals guarding the gate looked at each other. The Dharma artifacts in their hands lit up at the same time and they opened the gate.

　　Jiang Lin’er cupped her hands and thanked them before entering the sect.

　　As soon as she stepped into the array, she stopped gently.

　　Her jade-like feet that looked like they were only the size of a palm were stepped on the solid stone slabs that were covered with restrictions in the sect, creating a cobweb-like crack…

　　In the next moment, Jiang Lin’er’s figure was like an arrow that had left the bowstring. It dragged out a sharp blood glow in mid-air and it darted towards the Immortal Downpour Peak!

　　The two Heaven Immortal realm elders quickly followed her. However, their speed of flying was far inferior to that of Jiang Lin’er!

　　Li Changshou raised his eyebrows and smiled. Ling’e muttered softly, “Senior Brother, Grandmaster gives off such a… powerful vibe.”

　　Li Changshou was about to say something when he suddenly heard a voice that was filled with killing intent, spreading through the mountain-protecting array formation. “Kuai Si’s Master from the Immortal Downpour Peak, come out.” Qi Yuan, who was about to return to the Little Qiong Peak to wait for his master, finally reacted. He hurriedly shouted, “Changshou! Quick! Go and persuade your Grandmaster!”

　　“Ling’e, accompany Master back to Little Qiong Peak.”

　　Li Changshou turned around and entered the mountain-protecting array. He rode the cloud and slowly floated towards the Immortal Downpour Peak. Putting the rest aside… the fact that his Grandmaster did not look for Kuai Si, and instead directly looked for his master, had already impressed Li Changshou.

　　A few wisps of Heaven Immortal auras appeared on the Immortal Downpour Peak. Jiang Lin’er stood quietly in the air. The edge of her battle armor skirt fluttered slightly, and her long hair fluttered in the wind.

　　This Grandmaster…

　　The more Li Changshou looked at her, the more he felt that she was not bad.

　　Jiang Lin’er rushed to the Immortal Downpour Peak and challenged Kuai Si’s master directly.

　　The Peak Leader of the Immortal Downpour Peak stepped forward together with the elders of the sect. Jiang Lin’er ignored him and demanded an explanation, causing them to be somewhat speechless.

　　Kuai Si’s master, the elder in the Heaven Immortal realm whom Li Changshou had been keeping an eye on for a long time, quickly appeared.

　　Jiang Lin’er asked, “It’s you?” The other party had just nodded and before he could say anything, a sanguine glow bloomed in Jiang Lin’er’s hand, after which it pierced directly through Kuai Si’s master’s left shoulder!

　　Apart from Li Changshou, none of the Heaven Immortals in the sky could see clearly how Jiang Lin’er attacked.

　　Kuai Si’s master was caught off guard. His left shoulder was pierced by the sanguine glow and blood spurted out from his back. His protective immortal light was instantly broken!

　　If it had struck the Heaven Immortal in his vital points, he would have been seriously injured even if he did not die!

　　Jiang Lin’er immediately rushed forward. The gaze in her eyes was extremely sharp. The huge saber on her back turned into a ferocious beast that was a white tiger covered in streaks of blood. She held two short daggers in her hand…

　　The surrounding Heaven Immortals hurriedly tried to stop Jiang Lin’er. The white tiger protected Jiang Lin’er, stirring up waves of blood. The scene was chaotic.

　　The Peak Leader of the Immortal Forest Peak was also extremely angry. He attacked Jiang Lin’er with all his might and struck with his palm.

　　However, before the palm landed, a figure flashed in the direction of Pill Tripod Peak. It was Elder Wan Linyun!

　　Elder Wan Linyun immediately attacked and sent the Peak Leader of the Immortal Downpour Peak flying with a slap. He raised his hand to press down Jiang Lin’er and temporarily restrain her.

　　He did not hesitate to stop the fight.

　　“Stop,” Elder Wan Linyun said coldly. He frowned and looked at Jiang Lin’er.

　　Jiang Lin’er did not say a word. She turned her body and dozens of blade marks appeared around her. They were like petals dancing in the air. They were beautiful, but there was murderous intent hidden in them.

　　as

　　The immortal powers that Elder Wan Linyun had used were instantly broken by her!

　　Following that, Jiang Lin’er took a step forward. Her figure was like a ghost, and she formed more than ten shadows in the air. She easily bypassed the figures of a few Heaven Immortals and attacked Kuai Si’s master!

　　Li Changshou praised her in his heart.

　　Grandmaster has really been through life-and-death experiences to develop such an impressive killing technique.

　　She did not hesitate to attack. She knows her limits. She changed her body and her moves.

　　Unfortunately, Grandmaster only wanted to hurt people and not kill people in the beginning. That is a disadvantage…

　　Kuai Si’s master was not willing to be bullied. He immediately sacrificed a few treasures. However, before the treasures could flash with immortal light, a dagger had already appeared behind the old Daoist priest in a strange manner and pierced his right shoulder!

　　When he saw the sanguine glow rising again, he suddenly heard a sigh…

　　“Stop it.”

　　Jiang Lin’er paused and immediately retreated, turning to look in the direction of the Heaven-Breaking Peak.

　　More than ten streams of light flew over. However, the first person had already reached them with his hands behind his back. He had two strands of white hair at his temples, and his sullen face was rather handsome. He was the strongest Heaven Immortal in the sect…

　　Exalted Wang Qing.

　　“Jiang Lin’er, don’t make it impossible to end this matter,” said Exalted Wang Qing.

　　Li Changshou had thought that his grandmaster would also laugh coldly and dismiss Exalted Wang Qing, given her temper.

　　Unexpectedly…

　　“Okay.” Jiang Lin’er nodded and kept the short dagger.

　　She quickly formed a seal with her hands. The white tigers around her turned into beams of sanguine glow and condensed into a huge saber that returned to her back.

　　Li Changshou, who had just arrived above the Immortal Downpour Peak, immediately sensed something unusual…

　　Jiang Lin’er’s eyes flickered slightly as she looked at the person who had forgotten her love.

　　However, Exalted Wang Qing did not say anything else. Seeing that nothing had happened, he said, “This matter will end here. The Immortal Downpour Peak and Little Qiong Peak cannot take revenge on each other anymore. Otherwise, the sect will punish them severely.”

　　“We can’t stop here,” Jiang Lin’er said. “We can only end things with the Immortal Downpour Peak after we investigate the death of my eldest disciple.”

　　An elder by the side said, “Disciple-Nephew Kuai Si has been harmed at the border of the North Continent a day ago. He has suffered!”

　　Jiang Lin’er said, “If my Second Disciple did not do it himself, it would not be considered severing karma.”

　　At that moment, Jiang Lin’er heard a voice transmission and frowned slightly.

　　“Grandmaster, I’m Changshou. This matter needs to be discussed and done in secret. We should not seek revenge in such a high profile manner. Besides, Exalted Wang Qing is still watching.”

　　Jiang Lin’er tilted her head and looked at Li Changshou. Then, she looked at Exalted Wang Qing. She pursed her lips and carried the huge saber on her back. Then, she turned around and walked towards the Little Qiong Peak.

　　At that moment, Li Changshou was certain that his Grandmaster and Exalted Wang Qing… definitely shared a story.

　　Li Changshou bowed to Elder Wan Linyun. The latter smiled coldly and nodded slowly.

　　After that, Li Changshou, who did not attract the attention of the elders, hurriedly rode his cloud and chased after Jiang Lin’er. He did not attract the attention of the elders.

　　After some chaos, everyone returned to Little Qiong Peak.

　　Jiang Lin’er sat in Qi Yuan’s straw hut. Qi Yuan stood by the side and bowed. He said that he had transcended the tribulation to become a Turbid Immortal.

　　Li Changshou and Lan Ling’e were waiting outside the straw hut. Jiu Jiu, Jiu Wu, Youqin Xuanya, and Jiu Shi were watching the situation from afar.

　　Jiang Lin’er had made things difficult for the Immortal Forest Peak just now, and the few of them had also witnessed it. At that moment, they were all looking at that Aunt-Master and Aunt-Grandmaster who had suddenly returned…

　　They were a little afraid.

　　She was really attempting to kill them over a minor conflict! Even the few Heaven Immortals could not stop them!

　　Yet, she was so cool when she was slashing someone else…

　　Li Changshou and Ling’e were quickly called into the straw hut. However, not long after, only old Daoist priest Qi Yuan and Lingle were chased out.

　　The wooden door of the straw hut was closed, and two layers of array formations appeared around the straw hut.

　　Li Changshou was left alone…

　　Jiu Wu hurriedly walked forward. Youqin Xuanya and Jiu Jiu were also nervous. Ling’e frowned, her eyes filled with worry.

　　Jiu Wu hurriedly said, “Junior Brother Qi Yuan, why is Changshou here?”

　　“My master wants to give Changshou a lecture.” Qi Yuan pondered for a while and continued, “Don’t worry, it should be fine.” “How can I rest assured?” Jiu Jiu mumbled. “This Aunt-Master is very irritable. She caused a Heaven Immortal Elder to bleed the moment she returned to the sect.”

　　“Be careful of what you say.” Jiu Wu quickly stopped Jiu Jiu.

　　In the straw hut, Jiang Lin’er was sitting on a round chair. The huge saber was erected at the side, making her appear smaller.

　　Separated by the wooden door and array formation, Jiang Lin’er looked at Jiu Jiu and lowered her head to look at her armor.

　　“I haven’t seen her for a thousand years. Why has this little lass grown again…”

　　Li Changshou pretended that he did not hear anything and stood by the side quietly. “You’re Changshou, right?” Jiang Lin’er said, “I’m only coming back for a while this time. I won’t stay in the sect for long. I still have matters to attend to outside. I’ll go and find your Uncle-Master later. You have to take care of your master in the future.”

　　Li Changshou’s heart skipped a beat. He wondered, Has Grandmaster seen through my Qi-Calming Turtle Breathing Mantra?

　　That shouldn’t be the case. The Qi-Calming Turtle Breathing Mantra had been slightly improved. It shouldn’t be like this…

　　Fortunately, Jiang Lin’er rubbed her forehead and said, “Your master is a little stubborn and doesn’t quite guard against others. I think you’re more reliable. I can only entrust him to you.”
