Disdain

Qiao San said, "Young Master…"

Chu Li looked at him lazily. "What they say doesn't matter!"

"Even if so, the leader might be affected. The leader always treated you… without the help of those around him, I am afraid he might not choose you!" Qiao San replied. 

Chu Li responded calmly, "Relax, he will choose me."

"This…" Qiao San shook his head.

Chu Li smiled. "You go and do your task. You will follow me down the mountain tomorrow!"

"Alright," Qiao San answered.

The next morning, Chu Li brought a group of people down the mountain.

He was riding a horse and most of the disciples came and looked at him. He ignored them and either rested on the horse or talked with Qiao San.

Zhuge Tian had gained some fame. The disciples saw how strong he was and changed their views on him.

No one dared to get near someone so skilled and full of pride like him, as they only dared look from afar.
