“Martial brother, is it really okay like this? Master ordered me to cultivate properly, but then you went ahead and dragged me out…” Yu Shaofeng turned his head and watched as Still Peak faded into the distance. His expression was worried as he asked his martial brother this question.
Xue Ling knocked on his head: “Don’t play around with your martial brother. If you really didn’t want to come, you could’ve opened your mouth and said so when I brought you out. If you keep pretending, now that we’ve already left, I’ll toss you down.” They were riding on a sword. It would probably not be pretty if Yu Shaofeng dropped down now.

Yu Shaofeng laughed awkwardly and said shyly, “I just think that I more or less need to express this reluctance. I can’t seem too happy about running away.”
“Come on, Master doesn’t really care if you’re on Still Peak or not. As long as he doesn’t know that I brought you along with me to run away, it should be all right.”
“But isn’t Master’s perception really vast? … Why won’t he know if we’re running out?”
“Probably because he doesn’t dare to look at me.” Xue Ling was too lazy to bother himself about what that man was thinking. Until the point where he shut him up in a little black room, he didn’t really want to deal with him. “I brought you out this time mainly to let you experience the inter-sect competition.”
In the original novel, Yu Shaofeng had gone with his martial brother, another one of Ancestor Thunderbolt’s disciples who had a fire spiritual root with high attack and explosive power. They fought their way into the finals and obtained the map fragment to the Sishui Secret Realm. Then, that disciple brought Yu Shaofeng with him into the secret realm, and Yu Shaofeng picked up a pretty good harvest there. It also foreshadowed how he would be able to grow and develop on his own after being kicked out of the sect. There was a special material there that catalysed his mutated lightning root and later on allowed his strength to develop to a level comparable to Chi Lan.
As long as he ate that thing, his spiritual root that had been taken away would be able to completely evolve and revitalize his entire body. Only, Yu Shaofeng had been unclear about what it was at the beginning, and only took it as an ornament that he kept by his side. He never expected that it would ultimately open up another path for him.
“You have only joined the sect for a short time, and are not strong enough yet to have been assigned a place in the quota of people that can compete in this time’s inter-sect competition, so I’m only bringing you there to see the world.”

“But didn’t elder martial brother also not participate in the sect competition?” Yu Shaofeng thought it was strange as he continued to ask. Even so, he had a very clear understanding of his own strength.
Xue Ling smiled widely as he turned his head back, laughing as he petted his little martial brother’s dog head. “Still Peak has a total of two disciples. You’re still a little turnip head. In that case, having just me attend the sect’s grand competition isn’t too outrageous at all. Understand?”
As though sensing his martial brother’s ‘love’, Yu Shaofeng shivered and was forced by his martial brother’s abuse of authority to obediently nod and say, “Oh…”
“Younger martial brother.” Although Yux Shaofeng had already shrunk his neck back, Xue Ling continued to stroke down his neck. It was as though he was petting him, but the more he did it, the more terrified Yu Shaofeng felt…

QAQ Did his remark just now provoke his martial brother? This version of him was really scary…
“Still Peak only has the two of us, and there is no way that Master will accept another disciple. So you are my only martial brother. Understand?”
“… Understood… ” To be precise, he wasn’t even Master’s disciple. Master only allowed him to call Xue Ling ‘martial brother’, but didn’t let him call him Master at all…
“I am your only martial brother, and in Still Peak, you are not allowed to question your martial brother’s words.”
“… When did this we start to have this rule?
“Just now.”
“… Oh… ” Yu Shaofeng was now quite certain that he had provoked his brother, and the main reason for it was that he had refuted his martial brother’s words and questioned his strength.
Heavens, when had his IQ and EQ become so low? It was too scary. If he wanted to survive under his Master and martial brother, he couldn’t keep making low-IQ mistakes.
“This time, you will meet people from other forces during the inter-sect competition. I won’t prevent you from interacting with them, but you need to polish your eyes well, and not make any mistakes.” Seeing his little martial brother cleverly keep his head lowered, Xue began to explain the rules for going out this time to him. “Among the packages I have just given you is our school’s uniform. In a bit, you should change into it so that you won’t be ignored by the sect’s protectors.”
“Yes.” Yu Shaofeng pulled out a set of white and blue clothes from the storage bag. Although he was a little curious about why his martial brother had waited until today before giving him the uniform that represented his identity in the sect, he still obediently got ready to put it on. “What about martial brother? Are you not wearing it?”

“No. Wearing it makes one look like an idiot. It’s silly to death.”
Yu Shaofeng: “…”
“And I won’t be able to sneak away from the group if I’m wearing it.”
“I think that, based on martial brother’s face, it’s practically impossible to sneak out without being noticed.”
“What rules did I tell you just now?”
“… Oh…” It was still better if he was obediently did as he was told. Martial brother had a bad temper, and it looked like he was in a bad mood. He should be a little more sensitive and try not to provoke him.
