Chapter 133 - Daybreak Sect (2/2)
This person was of a similar age to Qiao Zhongbang, about 30 years old, but he looked younger than Qiao Zhongbang. He had a very normal face, and his mouth contained a dash of derision, giving him an acerbic look.
“How come I have never heard of some Fifth Junior Brother? Eldest Senior Brother, did you recognize wrong?”
“Third Senior Brother, your memory is awful! This Fifth Senior Brother is the person who Master once complimented as being more astute than Eldest Senior Brother. How unfortunate! Less than two years later, Fifth Senior Brother’s cultivation was crippled and his meridians were damaged completely, so he was subsequently expelled down the mountain by Master! Tut, I really didn’t expect to meet him here! How coincidental!”
“Hey, why did our once high-spirited Fifth Junior Brother age so prematurely? Hasn’t it only been 10 or so years? You look so old that I nearly didn’t recognize you.”
There were three youths in their 20s who wore the same style of white robes with the same circular emblem embroidered on their cuffs and chest.
They circled around their eldest senior brother and were praising Eldest Senior Brother enthusiastically while disparaging Qiao Zhongbang unrestrainedly at the same time.
Qiao Zhongbang had become utterly frozen the moment that Eldest Senior Brother spoke.
After those people finished mocking in a fl.u.s.ter, Qiao Zhongbang returned to his family’s side without a word.
“Hahaha,” the people from Daybreak Sect chortled, unbridled.
They were unexpectedly interrupted by a soft childish voice, “So noisy like a group of ducks. Are we done registering? We have to leave if we’re done.”
The laughter of the Daybreak Sect’s disciples abruptly halted.
They looked at Qiao Mu in disbelief, as though they did not comprehend where the child got the nerve to speak to them like this.
The scholar hastily took a bamboo tablet and wanted to hand it to Qiao Mu. “Go on then.”
Qiao Mu glanced at him and was about to reach out.
To their surprise, a burst of mystic energy suddenly shot out from the side and sent the bamboo tablet clattering to the ground.
One of the youths in white robes sardonically looked at Qiao Mu and her family, lifted his robes up, and pulled into a martial-arts squat. “Fifth Senior Brother, you can pa.s.s if you want, but you have to go through here!”
“Hahahahaha,” the other people from Daybreak Sect all let out malicious laughter.
