“Hu Yao? Why are you here too?!”
“Isn’t this Brother Yin?”
“Brother Wang, it’s you!”
“Yan Ben, weren’t you cultivating in seclusion?”
“…”
The six Heaven Stage experts stood opposite each other and chatted with each other. They seemed exceptionally enthusiastic. If one didn’t know better, one would think that they were good friends that they had not seen in many years.
“Brother Yun, what are you doing here?”
“Hahaha, Brother Zhou, there’s no need for the two of us to deliberately mystify things. I’ll put it this way: our Yun family will definitely take this pill refinement master.”
“Hehe, does your Yun family have that ability?”
“…”
“Everyone, stop fighting. Why don’t we let this pill refinement master make the decision himself?”
Hu Yao suggested with a bitter smile.
Originally, Hu Yao had thought that with the spies the Hu Clan had planted in Brilliance City, they would be the first to arrive. He hadn’t expected that the other five great clans would be on par with them and appear here so quickly.
Left with no choice, Hu Yao could only choose to make such a suggestion.
“Brother Hu is right. Let this pill refining master make his own decision!”
The Wang family expert named Brother Wang praised.
“That’s right. Instead of fighting here, why don’t we let that pill refinement master make his own choice?”
“Alright, if the pill refinement master chooses my Zhou Family, don’t go back on your word.”
“…”
Everyone swaggered into the courtyard. The Earth Stage cultivator who received Qin Jue previously pointed to a room in the corner and said, “That pill refinement master lives there.”
The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of the other cultivators in the courtyard. Those who were able to enter this courtyard were basically the leaders of the various forces. Seeing the people in charge of the Six Great Clans appear here, they all revealed astonished expressions.
“Elder Yin, why are you here?”
Wu Zhenjian looked proud, thinking that the other party was here to look for him.
“Hmm? So it’s Sect Master Wu. Please make way. You have nothing to do here.”
Elder Yin waved his hand and said impatiently.
Wu Zhenjian :”…”
Was this still the same Elder Yin who had treated him with great respect and invited him to drink tea this morning and wanted to rope him into the Yin Clan?
Wu Zhenjian was not an idiot. When he saw Elder Yin and the other elders of the five great clans walk towards Qin Jue’s room, he instantly understood what was going on.
Even though he was furious, there was nothing he could do.
“Wait, isn’t it bad for us to come without informing beforehand?”
Yan Ben, the elder of the Yan Clan, asked, “What if the master is resting?”
Everyone was stunned.
“Indeed, if he was resting, we might cause him to be displeased if we rashly came to his door. Why don’t we come back tomorrow?”
“Good point.”
“In that case, let’s come back tomorrow.”
With that said, the six elders quickly came to a consensus. They left happily and quickly disappeared from sight, as if nothing had happened.
“This…”
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
What was going on?
All of them left?
After a long while, the courtyard returned to normal. Right at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared soundlessly outside the courtyard. If an outsider was here, they would definitely recognize that it was Yan Ben, the elder of the Yan Clan who had just left not long ago.
“Haha, a group of idiots. They actually fell for it so easily.”
With a cold smile, Yan Ben walked into the courtyard.
“Ah!”
However, as soon as Yan Ben’s foot landed, he heard a scream of pain.
“What the hell is that?”
Yan Ben was shocked.
Before Yan Ben could react, a figure suddenly protruded from the ground. When he focused his eyes, he saw that it was the elder of the Wang Clan, Brother Wang!
Brother Wang was lying on the ground with a painful expression, and Yan Ben’s foot was right on top of him.
“You…”
Yan Ben moved his foot away in shock.
“Hiss!”
Brother Wang gasped and grimaced in pain.
“Damn it, I knew you wouldn’t leave obediently.”
Brother Wang stood up from the ground with his legs crossed and cursed. If he had not also been in the wrong, he would have rushed up to Yan Ben and fought with his life.
Originally, he had wanted to sneak back via an escape technique, but he didn’t expect Yan Ben to come back as well. Furthermore, Yan Ben had just stepped on him. If it weren’t for the fact that he was a Heaven Stage expert and had a powerful physical body, he would have exploded from the stomp.
How unlucky!
Thinking of this, the angry Brother Wang punched the wall beside him.
“Ah!”
Unexpectedly, the wall did not vibrate. Instead, there was a scream.
“Damn!”
Brother Wang was shocked. What was going on? The wall had become a spirit?
“Haha, you two are here too?”
Seeing that he could not dodge it, the wall twisted and Hu Yao walked out while holding his chest.
Brother Wang :”…”
Yan Ben :”…”
“As expected, you guys didn’t leave. Thankfully, I came back to take a look.”
At the same time, the scenery around them changed. The elders of the Yun Family also walked out from the shadows.
He didn’t want to be accidentally injured like Brother Wang and Hu Yao.
“Eh? You guys are back?”
“I knew I couldn’t trust you old farts.”
“…”
In the blink of an eye, all six elders had gathered at the spot again. Some had used escape techniques, while others had used mystic techniques. None of them had really left.
The six people looked at each other and then simultaneously went to Qin Jue’s room. At this point, there was no need to continue pretending.
Dong dong dong.
“Master, we’re here to visit you.”
Creak.
The door opened, and the six elders could not help but reveal excited expressions.
However, in the next moment, what appeared in front of them was an extremely ugly and bloated frog with a long tongue.
“This is the master who refined a perfected grade four pill?”
Hu Yao was dumbfounded.
“It can’t be. Even fiend beasts can refine pills?”
Yan Ben gulped.
“Are we at the wrong door?”
“…”
“Who are you guys?”
Tam asked.
“Excuse me… are you the junior brother of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect Master?”
“No, I’m not.”
Tam shook his head. “Uncle-Master Qin is asleep.”
Upon hearing this, the six of them heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it was not this frog, it was fine.
“So Master is asleep. Then we won’t disturb you guys any further,” Hu Yao said politely.
“That’s right, that’s right. Since the Master is asleep, let’s come back tomorrow.”
“That’s right.”
As the six of them spoke, they left the courtyard and disappeared from sight just like before. However, they did not return this time.
They were all old monsters that had lived for more than a hundred years. How could they not understand the principle of not disturbing others at this time? Otherwise, it would definitely be counterproductive.
Tam was speechless.
Were these guys here to joke?
“What is it?”
Qin Jue dazedly opened his eyes and casually asked.
“Nothing much. Just now, a group of idiots said that they wanted to visit Uncle-Master, but they left again.”
Tam closed the door behind him, his speech and manner almost human.
“Oh.”
Qin Jue didn’t care. He picked up the wine pot by the bed and took a fierce sip, then lay down and continued to sleep.
