Chapter 162

A Pitiful Sight

Early next morning, Chengfeng was about to leave his home when he saw Su You, He Zhu and Tian Jun at his gates. They grinned when they saw him, “Hey Junior Chengfeng! You're up! Let's head to cla.s.s together!”

Chengfeng laughed heartily. “Can't believe my seniors had to trouble themselves to visit me, apologies for that.” As he spoke, he turned to look at his peculiar house: the large trees surrounding his house seemed to be growing on his house. Horizontal branches, twigs and dense leaves sealed his windows.

He smiled bitterly. “Guess you all can see what my house is like. Apologies for not being able to invite you into my home for the moment.”

Su You was embarra.s.sed, laughing drily, “Junior Brother, you don't have to insist on staying here. We have so many empty rooms with us, we could keep rats as pets… Ah, I'm not calling you a rat, I mean, the rooms are empty anyway, why let the rats have all the fun? Uh…  Ptui, I didn't mean that!”

Tian Jun did not know to laugh or cry. “Su You, you'd better stop talking.”

There was a reason why Su You was at a loss for words. He had just seen Su Yuehan walking out of the house and what he saw stunned him.

Su Yuehan yawned and stretched, both arms high in the air and arching her back to form adorable curves. Her sleepy expression plucked on these single men's heartstrings.

Su You averted his gaze, sour and embarra.s.sed. “So the reason why you're not willing to move is because you're hiding a pretty girl in your house?”

Chengfeng patted her head. “Go back to sleep, I'm going off to cla.s.s with Xiaobao.”

She quickly said, “I want to go too.”

He glared. “We're heading to cla.s.s, what will you do there?”

She huffed indignantly, “I'm your servant, I have the right to follow my master and cultivate with him.”

With her hands on her hips, she turned to Su You and the rest. “Hey, don't you all think I'm right?”

As if possessed, Su You nodded vigorously. “Of course, of course.”

Tian Jun smiled. “You're absolutely right.”

To them, morning cla.s.ses were very boring, then they had to attend array training at Yanjian Hall afterwards. With a pretty girl by their side, they would feel a little bit stronger.

Blockhead scratched his head. “Yeah, my mother said that when guys and girls work together, work becomes easier.”

Chengfeng glared with disgust. This bunch of idiots are exposing themselves! If they can't even control themselves around a girl, how will they become cultivators?

He glared at Su Yuehan in exasperation. “Consider yourself smart, lobbying support from my seniors like that! Go wash up! We're not waiting if you're late!”

She made a face- which mesmerised the few guys who had been living chaste lives on the mountain for years- then went to the back of the house. After a while, she walked out with her face still wet. She had merely washed her face, brushed her teeth and tied her hair in a simple ponytail.

This simple getup with a bare face gave her an innocent beauty.

These Hidden Sword disciples were already considered cultivators. Some of them had already solidified their foundations and could take in a partner already.

However, all the female cultivators in Spiritual Mountain were in Hidden Beauty Court and everyone's first choice were the tall, handsome and rich men of Hidden Brocade Court. If that did not work out, they picked talented cultivators of Hidden Modesty Court with huge potential. What about Hidden Sword Court? Heh, who would want these dogs as spouses? They would have to be blind or stupid!

The girls would rather marry a dog!

Hidden Sword Court disciples could not leave the mountain unless on a mission. They did not meet female cultivators often either. As for commoners… Well, there were great choices too but the cultivators did not want commoners as spouses.

How could a cultivator who spent all their time cultivating live with a commoner living a regular life? One was high in the clouds while the other far on the ground. They would have no topics in common, life would be boring.

When the guys saw this pretty girl, their eyes immediately brightened and they suddenly felt more strength in their bones.

When Chengfeng, Xiaobao and Yuehan were done was.h.i.+ng up, they went to the precept hall for morning cla.s.ses. These usually deflated students suddenly chanted the twelve commandments energetically,

“I am a member of the Hidden Sword Court, its members are my siblings.

I drink the waters of the Spiritual Mountain in the mornings, and feast at the halls of Eagle Peak in the evenings.
