Chapter 13: Chu Yao

"Bang! You guys are so courageous to actually fight at the gate of my mansion! Let me hear it, who started fighting first?"

Qi Tianyou was furious, and immediately reprimanded Liu Qing and Huang Wanwan. Huang Wanwan appeared a little cautious but mostly carefree, but Liu Qing was quite gloomy. He said expressionlessly, "It's me."

"You, Brother Liu, why would you... sigh, did the fat man provoke you first?"

Qi Tianyou seemed to be in a dilemma. Of course, he knew what Fatty was like, but he also knew in his heart that Fatty was loyal to him, so he could only prevent situation from escalating.

Huang Wanwan muttered, "Didn't I just said a few words to him..."

Seeing Liu Qing's face getting uglier, Qi Tianyou immediately said, "Shut up, you must apologize to Brother Liu. We are all brothers and should support each other. We are in such a critical moment, yet we are fighting amongst ourselves! Can you spare me a little piece of mind?"

Fatty frowned inwardly. When he was a child, he hated cultivating and spent his days teasing little girls and hanging out with other losers. One of his best friends was Liu Qing's eldest brother.

The two were relatively useless and often got bullied by Liu Qing.

In recent years, Fatty had discovered his talent for business and his status has gradually improved. He wanted to find his good friend for a drink when he heard the news of Liu Qing's eldest brother's death. And it seems that Liu Qing has some hand in it. That's why he completely hated him.

However, hearing Qi Tianyou's orders, Fatty still spoke up reluctantly, "I'm sorry…"

"Hmph." Knowing that Fatty and the Seventh Prince had known each other for a long time, Liu Qing could only swallow his anger. Who made his family support Seventh Prince?

Qi Tianyou nodded and changed the subject, "Okay, since we are brothers, don't hold a grudge against each other for this matter. I'll prepare some wine, let's have a drink together."

"Boss, where is the sister-in-law?" The Fatty suddenly spoke up, his pig-like eyes searching left and right.

Qi Tianyou smiled and said, "Chu Yao has returned to the Evil King Sect. She will be back soon in a few days with some help. When she comes back, we will go ahead and settle the situation here!"

The Fatty laughed. "It turns out that sister-in-law has gone back to call someone. That means the big brother will soon become the King, and then he will have to make me a high-ranking official!"

"Hahaha, of course. Fatty, Brother Liu, let's go and drink!"

...

In the wilderness, a group of three people rode a Spirit Beast, travelling distance at a rapid pace. At the front was a valiant girl who appeared very capable, she was followed by two middle-aged men and women.

Their Spirit Beast ran very fast, travelling thousands of miles a day wasn't a problem at all.

Suddenly, a figure covered in smoke appeared and blocked their way.

"Who is ahead? Why are you blocking the way?" The Spirit Beasts halted and the girl in the middle asked cautiously.

The figure gradually became clear, revealing a young man with fluttering white clothes and waist-length hair. He chuckled lightly, "Oh? You don't recognize me?"

The middle-aged men and women behind the girl were shocked, and they immediately got off the Spirit Beast and saluted, "Evil King Sect, Qian Gui greets Young Master Ji!"

"Evil King Sect, Su Lan greets Young Master Ji!"

They then immediately reminded to their miss who was still on her Spirit Beast, "Miss, come down to greet Ji Family's Young Master."

The girl carefully observed Ji Changju and wondered why he was blocking her way. The two had never met before. However, she still got off the Spirit Beast and saluted calmly.

"Evil King Sect, Chu Yao greet Young Master Ji. I don't know why you graced us with your presence?"

The beautiful girl was dressed heroically, and her temperament has the spiciness of a wild pepper, but Ji Changju was not interested in the least. Why? Too small!

Ji Changju took out a table and a chair from the storage ring, as well as a pot of tea and a cup, and just sat in the middle of the road, bewildering Chu Yao and the two around her.

"I want to accept you as a disciple, kneel down and kowtow, and complete the tea serving ceremony." Ji Changju said calmly.

"This, what..." Chu Yao was stunned. Why would he want to accept her as an apprentice? And judging from his posture, it seems like she has to accept it whether she want or not?

Chu Yao thought that maybe he had a nefarious purpose. After all, she was so beautiful.

"Miss..." Qian Gui and Su Lan were also stunned. They did not expect such a thing to happen during their travel.

Chu Yao made up her mind, and said bravely, "Young Master Ji, I still have a lot of things to deal with, and I don't plan to worship a teacher for the time being."

Ji Changju smiled, put away the table and chair, and walked to the girl. "Alright, its seems that you don't get it. If I say I want you to become my disciple, then you have to become one. If not, I'll pay Evil King Sect a visit. Don't blame me if it doesn't exist tomorrow."

The three people were stupid after hearing the threat. If people won't become your disciple, you will destroy their families?! The girl suddenly got a little anxious and blurted, "If you do that, you will be criticised by everyone… besides, our sect also has a Spiritual Transformation Realm Expert!"

Ji Changju chuckled, "Oh, the Evil King Sect is an evil sect while I am the honorary elder of righteous Tianshan Sect. If I really took action and destroyed Evil King Sect, not only will I not be criticised but instead be praised as a hero…"

"Besides, who told you that I was in Spiritual Transformation Realm?"

Chu Yao's face was flushed, and she began to tremble with anger. What a hypocritical reason!

But the last sentence made Chu Yao a little confused. "What? Weren't you in Spiritual Transformation Realm when showed your prowess in Wang City, I was nearby at that time."

"No need to say more, do you worship me as your master?"

"You, you are unreasonable! Without discussing with my family, how can I become someone's disciple?" Chu Yao gnashed her teeth.

"Well, it's the first time I tried to accept a disciple. If I'm rejected, won't I lose my old face? As I remember, your little lover is in Wang City. If you reject me today, I'll kill him first to vent my anger!" Ji Changju grinned evilly.

"You lunatic, I will fight with you!"

When he mentioned her lover, Chu Yao was immediately furious. But when she walked one step towards Ji Changju, she found that she couldn't move at all!

Ji Changju looked at Chu Yao with playful eyes and said, "Even when you heard me saying that I'll destroy Evil King Sect, you were just a little angry, but when I said that I'll kill your little lover, you dared to stepped forward to attack me. That's interesting but let's put it aside. First, why don't you go back and ask your father if he dares to attack me?"

The two middle-aged men and women in the back were startled, and quickly explained, "Please forgive us, my lady is usually quite gentle. Miss, please be respectful!"

Chu Yao also knew that she had lost her temper, so she pinched the corner of her clothes with trembling hands and said, "Let me think about it for a few days and talk to my parents."

"Okay, seven days later, I'll will come to your Evil King Sect and let Chu Xiong hold a big banquet. Though, whether it would be a banquet or a funeral will depend upon you."

After giving the ultimatum, Ji Changju ignored Chu Yao. Then with narrowed eyes, he looked at the Spirit Beast mounts in the back. Suddenly, they burst into black particles, leaving nothing behind.

Ji Changju then disappeared, leaving the three dumbfounded. Chu Yao cried, "My Spirit Beast!" Turns out the Spirit Beast she was riding was her favourite.

"It's okay, miss, it's okay. It's already good that he didn't slaughter us. For such strong cultivators, its common to slaughter cities and towns!"

...

This was the first time he was rejected which made Ji Changju a little depressed. When he returned to Li's house, it was already dark. He wanted to vent his frustration on Zhou Yu, but he didn't see her. However, his senses told him everything he needed to know.

In another place, Li Mingde and Zhou Yu were eating.

"I… do I still have a chance?" Li Mingde said sullenly.

Zhou Yu glanced at him in surprise. "Oh, you are not afraid of becoming a corpse on the street one day?"

"Very afraid!"

"Then don't think about it, I'm already his person. You can go out and find another woman. Isn't it good that you are still the head of the Li family? Oh, but be sure to make my son the next head of family." Zhou Yu said casually while eating.

"Sigh..." Li Mingde stopped talking and ate with his head down...
