Chapter 179 Set off!
"Where have you, you, your junior brother, and your senior brothers and sisters gone again?!"
"It's really annoying!"
"You, as the senior brother, are utterly useless!"
Inside the main hall of the Purple Bamboo Peak of the Qingyun Sect, Zhang Daojiu paced back and forth anxiously.
Tang Hua, standing to the side, didn't dare to even breathe loudly.
Tang Hua really wanted to say to his master...
I don't know where they went either. Master, even if you scold me, it won't do any good.
I just came to report on the progress of the mission, how come I'm so unlucky?
There was nothing that could be done, so it's no wonder Zhang Daojiu wasn't in a hurry.
A few days ago, the peak masters received a message from the sect leader that the date for this year's Great Competition between the Righteous and the Demonic Sects had been confirmed!
It's actually half a month earlier than in previous years!
Tomorrow is the departure date, but there's not even a trace of these three people.
It would be one thing if the disciples from the other peaks were missing, but they were all present. The three missing people out of the ten were all from Purple Bamboo Peak.
The more Zhang Daojiu thought about it, the angrier he became!
Since taking in this sword-wielding disciple, there hasn't been a single time that has been easy for his master to worry about.
Unexpectedly, even the senior brothers and sisters in the peak were led astray by him.
If Lin Que were here, he would definitely be so angry that he would curse!
It's clearly them who are taking advantage of us, okay?
However, to my surprise, it actually came true!
Just as Zhang Daojiu was pacing back and forth, Tang Hua's eyes suddenly lit up as he glanced towards the gate!
He immediately called out to Zhang Daojiu, who was pacing back and forth with his head down, "Master!"
"Junior brother, senior brother, and senior sister are back!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Daojiu immediately raised his head and looked towards the gate.
as predicted!
Three familiar figures were walking into the main hall from outside the gate.
Especially the one in the lead, who kept grinning like an idiot!
"Eh?"
"Senior Brother Tang, it's been a long time! I didn't expect to see you here!"
Upon seeing Tang Hua, Lin Que became even happier and quickly went up to him to greet him.
He hadn't seen Tang Hua for a long time. From the last sect competition until now, he hadn't seen him at all and didn't know where he had gone.
"Junior brother, stop laughing!" Tang Hua winked at Lin Que: "For some reason, Master has been looking for you these past few days, but he can't find you, which makes him very anxious and angry!"
Just as Lin Que was about to ask a question with a puzzled look, Zhang Daojiu's angry voice came over.
"You actually managed to come back, kid?"
"Do you know that we're leaving tomorrow!"
Upon hearing this, not only Lin Que, but also Feng Wudao and Li Muxue were stunned!
Lin Que couldn't help but ask, "Master, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Isn't the Great Competition between the Righteous and the Demonic Realms still more than half a month away?"
"What? There's still more than half a month left!" Zhang Daojiu said, "We received a notice from Tianxuan Academy that the competition has been moved up by fifteen days!"
"I was going to yell at you, but never mind!"
"It's good that you made it back in time, otherwise you would have had to go and apologize to the sect leader yourselves after tomorrow!"
Lin Que and his two companions were instantly shocked!
They didn't expect the date to be moved up; they had calculated that there were still more than half a month left.
But it's alright, at least I wasn't late.
All three of them breathed a sigh of relief!
In fact, Lin Que and the others could have returned much earlier, but unexpectedly, after helping Feng Wudao and Li Muxue forge their swords, Duan Tian actually asked Lin Que for some Golden Crow Meteorite Iron and was willing to exchange it with Lin Que for his most precious forging skills.
Seeing this, Lin Que knew there was no way he could accept it. He had plenty of Golden Crow Meteorite Iron, and he could easily give some to Duan Tian.
After all, Duan Tian had done him a huge favor!
What puzzled Lin Que was why Duan Tian wanted to ask him for the Golden Crow Meteorite Iron.
But then, Duan Tian sighed and explained to him that Mo Li had never given up on returning to the Wuliang Sword Sect to challenge the ancient sword tomb, and Duan Tian himself couldn't persuade her otherwise.
So he simply asked Lin Que for some Golden Crow Meteorite Iron to forge an indestructible sword for Mo Li!
After understanding the reason, Lin Que generously gifted the Golden Crow Meteorite Iron to Duan Tian and helped him forge Mo Li's longsword before leaving, since neither of them had any Heavenly Spirit Fire.
That's why it took a little time.
Mo Li was unaware that Duan Tian had noticed this and made the decision on his own.
This caused Mo Li to repeatedly refuse the longsword, which was forged from the Golden Crow meteorite iron, upon seeing it.
Finally, it's unclear what Duan Tian said to her, but Mo Li accepted the longsword and felt grateful to Lin Que and the other two, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Inside the main hall of Zizhu Peak, Lin Que and his two companions left after listening to their master Zhang Daojiu's instructions.
After all, we're leaving tomorrow, so we need to go back and prepare.
After returning to her room, Feng Jiuyou jumped out of Lin Que's storage ring, a book still in her mouth, and greeted him.
"Hey kid, look what this is!"
Lin Que picked up the book and glanced at it, then was immediately shocked!
"Fuck!"
"You idiot, how could you steal Senior Duan's forging techniques?!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiuyou said angrily, "Don't you dare make false accusations!"
"Pah! That's not right!"
"Don't spout nonsense!"
"This forging technique was given to me by Duan Tian himself!"
"He was afraid you wouldn't accept it, so he told me to take it out for you when I got back!"
"So that's how it is!" Lin Que said, stroking his chin. "I thought it was stolen by someone else, you silly bird. I was just thinking about when to return it to him."
"Since Senior Duan has gone to such lengths, there's no reason not to accept it."
Afterwards, Lin Que stored the forging technique in his storage ring.
But Feng Jiuyou, who was standing to the side, was not happy!
"Damn it!"
"You little brat, did you suspect from the start that I was the thief?!"
"Isn't that obvious!" Lin Que said matter-of-factly, "After all, you have a criminal record, so it's perfectly normal for me to suspect you."
"You son of a bitch!" Feng Jiuyou suddenly jumped up and pounced on Lin Que!
"I can't tolerate this from you!"
Hey! You silly bird!
The man and the bird started fighting inside the house...
The next day!
On the main peak of Qingyun Mountain, a huge flying boat was docked!
You can sense an aura of authority just by looking at him.
After all, it's a first-rate sect, so they can't afford to be laughed at when it comes to their mode of transportation.
"Brother Lin Que!"
As soon as Lin Que arrived at the main peak, a familiar voice came from there.
Along with that came several pairs of eyes!
"It's Lingyi! Long time no see!" Lin Que said with a smile as he looked at Qu Lingyi running towards him. "You must have improved a lot these past few months, right?"
Qu Lingyi raised her little fist and said, "I definitely won't let Brother Lin Que down!"
Just as Lin Que was about to say something, a lazy voice came over.
"Junior brother, it seems you've made progress again these past few months..."
A glint flashed in Lin Que's eyes, and then he looked at Chen Jiuge beside him. After sensing his aura, he laughed and said, "Haha, Senior Brother Chen!"
"Aren't you the same? You're at the late stage of the Life Sea Realm, just one step away from the Golden Core Realm!"
"It must have been you, senior brother, who deliberately suppressed it, right?"
That's right!
At this moment, Chen Jiuge's realm has reached the late stage of the Great Perfection of the Sea of Life Realm!
Lin Que guessed that he must have deliberately suppressed his cultivation level for the sake of the Righteous Demon Grand Competition, otherwise he would have already reached the Golden Core stage.
"Haha, you figured that out, junior brother..."
Chen Jiuge smiled indifferently and then said, "I really hope that I can have another match with you, Junior Brother, in this Great Competition of Righteousness and Demonism!"
"I hope so too!"
After their conversation ended, the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Brother Lin!"
People began to arrive at the main peak one after another. As soon as the Liu brothers arrived, they greeted Lin Que.
Lin Que responded with a smile as well.
Before long, all ten of the top ten from the sect competition had arrived.
Then, the figure of the Qingyun Sect Master slowly walked out from the main hall of the main peak and said to everyone, "Everyone has arrived!"
"Everyone!"
"Please board the flying boat!"
Then the Qingyun Sect Master led the way onto the flying boat, and everyone else immediately followed closely behind!
Before long, the airship slowly started up and set off...
