Chapter 19

Xie Bi An originally planned to tell Zhong Kui about Jiang Qu Lian early in the morning, but when he woke up, he found that Zhong Kui was instructing Fan Wu She on how to practice his swordplay and saw that his little junior brother's black clothes had become grey with dust, so he must have been practicing for a while.

Interested, Xie Bi An watched from the sidelines.

Heaven Master Palace has been desolated for too long. For his safety, his master has never allowed Yin servants to serve him. Bo Zhu hadn't been here in the first 1-2 years. Before that, only master and disciple were in the palace. Since he was young, he yearned to have a companion of his own age. Although this wish came a little late, he was still very happy. He hoped that the three of them and Bo Zhu can always continue to be like this.

Master and disciple made several moves in a row, and Fan Wu She's swordplay was once again broken by Zhong Kui's attack, knocking the sword out of his hand.

Zhong Kui admonished without mercy, "There is nothing wrong with your moves, and your foundation is solid, but your speed is too slow, and your killing energy is too much. You only have five points of strength but have ten points of pride. Having high standards with little ability to back it up is not beneficial.”

Fan Wu She's breathing is unstable, but his eyes were not indignant. Instead, it seems to be calm, because what master said was not wrong. He previously thought that Zhong Kui was called number one in the world because of the Eastern Emperor's Bell and there was a controversy in the immortal cultivational world. After all, Zhong Kui had not fought with Xu Zhi Nan and Li Bu Yu before, so it was not clear whether he would win or lose. Now it seems that even without the Eastern Emperor's Bell, Zhong Kui is still the top master in the immortal cultivation world and is worthy of being Xie Bi An's master.

Xie Bi An contained his laughter and said: "Master, Wu She, go and rest for a while. It's almost mealtime."

"Alright, let's go eat." Zhong Kui swaggered away.

"Wu She, you must have benefited a lot from the guidance of our master." Xie Bi An brought a towel and gestured for Fan Wu She to wipe off the dust on his clothes.

"Not bad." Fan Wu She said.

"Arrogant." Xie Bi An reprimanded, "Just now master also criticized you. Complacency leads to loss, and modesty leads to gain. You must change this bad habit of arrogance."

Fan Wu She said, "I am telling the truth."

Xie Bi An frowned at him, "You are really young and arrogant. Do you want to be punished again?"

Thinking of the last time he scrubbed the floor for a day, which made Fan Wu She quite annoyed, he squinted at Xie Bi An, "Can senior brother win me?"

"What?"

"Senior brother and I will have a match. If you win, I will listen to you."

Xie Bi An was exasperated: "Is this how you behave as a junior brother?"

"I have never been a junior brother before."

"Fine, let's have a match some other day." Xie Bi An thought: I really need to cure this kid's arrogant temperament.

"Senior brother, what if you lose?" Unintentionally asking this question, Fan Wu She stared at Xie Bi An's dark eyes, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. A voice rang in his head - "Big brother, what if you lose?" How would he answer, would he say...

"That's up to your disposal."

Fan Wu She's felt stagnation in his chest, followed by a surge of Qi and blood.

Back then, when he returned to Daming with the Shanhe Sheji Map and Xuanyuan Heavenly Secret Talisman, he had the exact same conversation with Zong Zi Heng, who had already trampled on the throne and fought to the death.

When he won, how did he "dispose" of Zong Zi Heng?

He pinned Zong Zi Heng on the throne in the Sanqing Hall of Wuji Palace and did what he had always wanted to do. He wanted his big brother, who had killed his father and brother for the sake of the throne, to have a taste of the price of becoming Emperor Zong at all costs, such that when he sat there every day, he would think of how he was on this throne like a dog getting f***ed by his own younger brother!

However, Xie Bi An is not Zong Zi Heng. When he said those four words, his face did not have the determination of walking to the end of the mountain. Only the spirit of a teenager, which was glowing - he did not think that he will lose.

Fan Wu She’s face was stern: "You make such promises easily even when you are sparring with others?"

Xie Bi An didn't care much: "Why? Your brother has never lost a sparring match with anyone. If I really lose, I will have to concede the bet. Come on, let's go have breakfast."

"Aren't you afraid that people will demand something inappropriate?"

"What kind of inappropriate demands? I'm a big man. It's not like I have to offer my body to others." After he said, he laughed out loud.

Fan Wu She stared at the back of his head.

"Wu She, you also have to be willing to bet and accept defeat. If you lose, you have to obey your senior brother." Xie Bi An turned his head and smiled at Fan Wu She, "You are not yet a match for senior brother. I will teach you a good lesson."

Fan Wu She walked a few steps faster and walked beside Xie Bi An: "If you lose, aren't you afraid that I'll demand something inappropriate?"

"Oh?" Xie Bi An thought that his junior brother was very interesting sometimes, "What kind of demands would you have? Let's hear it."

Fan Wu She pursed his lips, "I haven't thought about it."

"Then think about it, you might be able to use it one day."

During their meal, Xie Bi An told Zhong Kui about what happened last night at the Red Palace.

Zhong Kui snorted coldly, "Do you know what he wants?"

"A magical treasure?"

"Yes, in the early years, I got a magical treasure, a doppelganger handed down by the Southern Miao cultivator of witchcraft, which can be a host body for spiritual energy or a soul, and after being hosted, it will transform into the shape the host wants."

"He wants to use it as a spirit house?"

People from the underworld have no physical body in the human realm. Even if they force themselves to take on the body of a living person, they will not be able to sustain it for long, and they will lose their cultivation level. If they want to stay in the human realm for a long time, they need a body that can be hosted. This body is called the spirit house.

With the cultivation level of Jiang Qu Lian, he can quench the spirit house, but the spirit houses made of grass and wood will not last and will rot away after a few days, so he probably wants a specific magical treasure for hosting the soul.

Zhong Kui nodded.

"What does he want the spirit house for?" Xie Bi An frowned, "The emperor doesn't allow him to casually go to the human realm."

"Who could stop him? As long as he doesn't cause any trouble, even the emperor will turn a blind eye to it." Zhong Kui took a bite of rice, "Anyway, he probably would not dare to mess around, at least not to the extent where he is found out by me. But I still can't give him a spirit house."

"Master is right, but what about Meng Ke Fei?"

Zhong Kui said, "I will go and meet him. This person is cunning, and what he says should not be trusted."

"That's right."

"In a few days, it will be Li Bu Yu’s birthday. Because of Meng Ke Fei's incident, there will not be a birthday banquet this time, but all the major sects will still send people to offer birthday congratulations, so we will have a reason to go to Yunding. Bi An, you go and prepare a birthday gift."

"Got it."

Mount Shu is known as the number one immortal mountain in the world because Wuliang Sect is stationed there.

But even without Wuliang Sect, Mount Shu has countless beautiful mountains and valleys covered by clouds. The first great sect of immortals in the world, Wuliang Sect, is located on the summit of the first peak of Mount Shu - Diancang Peak, which is named Yunding because of its cloudy and dense aura.

Wuliang Sect has been established for hundreds of years and is a significant immortal sect in the era of Emperor Zong. A hundred years ago, during the siege of the Zong Clan, Wuliang Sect made a great achievement, and Li Bu Yu, who has great pride, carried forward Wuliang Sect. When the Zong Clan was destroyed and a hundred things were waiting to be done, Wuliang Sect rose rapidly, and Li Bu Yu founded the Immortal Alliance and became its leader. Today, Wuliang Sect has more than 10,000 disciples, countless wealth, magical treasures, and high-ranking cultivators, sitting firmly on the throne of the world's top immortal sect.

Li Bu Yu is a decent person. He is impartial in his duties, highly respected in the immortal cultivational world, and convincing. As a result, Li Bu Yu’s annual birthday has become a grand gathering in the immortal cultivational world, and everyone is invited as a symbol of his status.

The liveliest town at the foot of Mount Shu is called Lanxi Town. Cultivators are rarely seen in these towns, but they are all over the streets here. It was not rare at all.

Zhong Kui and his two disciples were walking in Lanxi town. They stopped every 3 steps and halted every 5 steps. They want to try whichever wine they see.

Xie Bi An usually has to control Zhong Kui so that he would not drink too much, but he also loves shopping in the market. Other than wine, there are so many new and interesting things. He’s unable to look at everything.

So, Fan Wu She took over the role of watching over the master and disciple duo who couldn’t walk out of this small street for 2 hours.

"Wu She, Wu She." Xie Bi An excitedly waved at Fan Wu She, "Look at this gadget, I've never seen it before. I'll buy one for Bo Zhu. Do you like it? I'll buy one for you too."

Fan Wu She suddenly remembered that last time, when Zong Zi Heng went to travel, he would always bring back a large pile of gifts and share them with his younger siblings. A habit that had not changed even after his reincarnation. He swallowed back his words of refusal and said, "Sure."

Xie Bi An was paying the money when he heard Zhong Kui arguing with someone over there.

"Why isn’t it drawn well?" A scholar said angrily, "Everyone says I have the style of Wu Dao Zi, and my painting of Zhong Kui is the bestseller in Lanxi Town!"

"Zhong Kui looks like this? Have you seen him?" Zhong Kui pointed to the picture of the masculine man with a beard and said angrily, "What is this thing? It looks like a black bear."

"You…you can insult me, but you can't insult Heaven Master!"

"It's only insulting to Heaven Master when you draw it like this!"

Xie Bi An ran over in a hurry, held back his laughter, and dragged Zhong Kui back: "Master, forget it. Sir, my master drank some wine. Sorry, please don't blame him, please don't blame him."

The scholar took a look at Xie Bi An and said incredulously, "This little immortal is your disciple? How can you, a rude and impolite person, have such a gentle and handsome disciple?"

"This is my disciple!" Zhong Kui flipped through the painting stand and picked up another one, "Why did you draw Cui Zi Yu so beautifully? No, have you ever seen him? Have you ever seen Zhong Kui, have you ever seen Cui Jue?!"

"Okay master, stop it."

"What's this again? The 'Zhong Kui eating ghosts’ painting?" Zhong Kui grabbed the painting and tore it up, "My disciple's cooking is delicious! Who wants to eat ghosts? What's so delicious about ghosts?"

"I'm not asking you to eat ghosts, you crazy person! You need to pay for my painting!"

Fan Wu She took out a piece of silver and threw it to the scholar: "Is this enough?"

The scholar weighed the silver, grunted heavily, and cursed as he put away his painting stand.

Zhong Kui also cursed and was dragged away by Xie Bi An.

"How outrageous, how outrageous." Zhong Kui said angrily, "Your master is also a talented and handsome man. Why do they always draw me as an ugly person?"

Xie Bi An held back his laughter, "Well Master, the people respect and worship you. They think you have to look fierce so that the ghosts can be suppressed, don't be angry."

"Ridiculous, they also worship Cui Jue as well. Why do they draw Cui Jue like a god?"

"Official Lord Cui does have an immortal style."

"And I don't?"

"Master…"

"Heaven Master." A clear voice sounded behind him.

The three turned around and a handsome and elegant young man smiled and arched his hand, "Heaven Master, by order of the Sect Master, junior welcomes Heaven Master and Immortal Sovereign Impermanence to Yunding."
