Chapter 664 - The Junior Fellow Disciple (1/2)

It is quite dim in the cave, where a pale-faced man is sitting inside. He seems to be in his twenties only, sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hands placed on his knees, just like an old monk unmoved in meditation.

Behind him, there are two men both older than him, who look very dispirited.

“Ning, when can we leave this bloody place?” The man holding a bottle of water is somewhat younger than the other but they look very alike.

Rubbing a hemp rope, the other man turns around to glance at him and heaves a sigh, saying, “No idea for now. We need to listen to the junior fellow disciple.”

“Tsk. Why do we have to listen to him? We are the seniors!” Zhang Xu, who is obviously a bit disgruntled, snaps sulkily.

Zhang Ning grins. He understands his younger brother’s moodiness. They are brothers. Even if their minds are not in sync, they still think quite alike.

In fact, he is critical of that but he can’t do anything about it. The junior fellow disciple is really talented and also well appreciated by the honorable elder. Besides, to be honest, the junior fellow disciple is more capable than them indeed. There is nothing bad about them following him.

Most importantly, this junior fellow disciple is really cruel and merciless though he has been a member of the Ghost Sect not for long.

Being cruel and merciless may be a derogatory remark in other cases.

However, being cruel and merciless is definitely commendatory for a disciple of the Ghost Sect.

As a disciple of the Ghost Sect, as long as he can be absolutely brutal, it won’t be a difficult thing to elevate the cultivation level quickly.

For example, having stayed in Zhaojiagou for some time, the junior fellow disciple has made a spurt of progress in his cultivation. Undoubtedly, he will be as strong as a cultivator at the realm of Strength Exposure very soon.

At the thought of that, they are somewhat jealous.

Suddenly, a roar comes from outside.

The junior fellow disciple sitting on the ground suddenly opens his eyes full of killing intent.

“Here comes the trouble-makers again.” The junior fellow disciple’s voice sounds a bit gloomy and shrill. He directly stands up and walks outside.

He doesn’t even dart a glance at Zhang Xu and Zhang Ning behind him.

He feels somewhat annoyed. Neither can he think through why his master has to let these two weak disciples follow him. They can only hold him back, let alone help him. If it were not for the fact that he needed some closed-door training these days, he would have killed them directly.

Gladly, they can protect him at least when he is in the closed-door training now.

Seeing the junior fellow disciple stand up and walk out, Zhang Xu and Zhang Ning hasten to follow him out of the cave without hesitation.

When they just get out of the cave, the roar sounds even stronger.

The junior fellow disciple, who is tall and thin, stands by the lake with his brows knitted and eyes closed.

Waves are rolling on the lake. Through the turbid water, a long creature can be vaguely seen swimming rapidly.

“The junior fellow disciple is communicating that thing again?” Zhang Xu asks in a low voice.

“I guess.” Zhang Ning nods. “That thing looks a bit restless.”

“Restless?”

“I don’t know. Let’s ask him later,” Zhang Ning sighs and says.

The corner of Zhang Xu’s mouth twitches. He feels rather upset actually. The thing in the lake used to be the honorable elder’s treasure but he just gave it to the junior fellow disciple without thinking, which is simply to help him increase the cultivation level. Neither of them can be treated with such a benefit. They feel so jealous.

After a while, the junior fellow disciple suddenly shouts. The lake is restored to peace without any ripple.

“What’s going on?” Zhang Ning walks forward fast and asks with a smile.

The junior fellow disciple takes a glance at him and snorts, saying, “Why ask? You can’t be of help anyway.”
