Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 78: Chu Yang’s Encounter~

A few minutes after Chu Yang left Xuan Hao’s mountain peak, Qing Yi made her way back carrying the two books she had gotten from the Alchemy Hall earlier.

”Hey Zhi Ruo!” Greeting Zhi Ruo who was sweeping the entrance to the pavilion with a wooden broom, Qing Yi happily made her way over as she hugged her before she could react.

”Qing Yi? How was the alchemy stuff you went out to learn?” Smiling a bit upon seeing Qing Yi return, Zhi Ruo returned the hug as she asked about the thing that she had run off so excitedly to learn earlier in the day.

”It was great! I even met a senior in alchemy. Look! he gave me these books to learn before I could start making pills and potions! When I manage to learn how to make pills and potion, I will surly be able to use all the herbs I gathered when I went out with master!” Excitedly showing Zhi Ruo the two books that she had gotten from the Alchemy Hall, Qing Yi started talking about what happened.

From how much an alchemist could earn to how wasteful the so-called fake alchemists are, Qing Yi told Zhi Ruo everything.

”I see…” Zhi Ruo smiled awkwardly as she saw how excited Qing Yi had become and sincerely wished to just return to quietly sweeping the floor like she had done beforehand.

The excited Qing Yi was not something she had wished to deal with!

Thus, a poor and innocent servant was forced to listen to her master’s experiences in the Alchemy Hall, from the smallest details to the main focus being the two books that her master had brought back, that the servant in question would most likely never read…

…

As a certain poor servant was forced to listen to her master’s experiences, Chu Yang had already made his way down the mountain peak and was curiously looking around the Flying Sword Sect.

Not that he had lost his way or anything! No, he was just… looking around his future sect to familiarize himself with the new environment… Looking for his senior sister Qing Yi could always wait for a bit…

As Chu Yang made his way through the Flying Sword Sect, he had unknowingly wandered into a small garden besides a building. The building was beautifully decorated and there were all kinds of ornamental bonsai trees in the garden.

A single look was enough to see that someone cared greatly about the bonsai trees in the garden as they had been tended to with care and were in good health.

”Hey! This is my backyard kid! What are you doing here?!” As Chu Yang was admiring the beautiful garden, completely forgetting that he was supposed to go to the Alchemy Hall, a surprised voice sounded out behind him.

Turning around to meet the owner of the voice, Chu Yang saw that it was an elderly man dressed in a simple white robe without any decorations on standing there with a cup of tea in hand.

Clearly the elderly man was relaxing today and had just gone in to get something to drink.

”Sorry elder, I think I walked into the wrong place!” Saying this Chu Yang quickly turned around and ran away before the elderly man managed to react.

”…” Watching as Chu Yang figure quickly disappeared into the distance, the elderly man’s face slowly turned dark as Chu Yang’s answer was far from enough to answer how he had entered his garden that clearly had a two-meter-tall wall surrounding it!

How does one simply ”walk into the wrong place” over a two-meter-tall wall!?

”You! Wait up!” Realizing that Chu Yang had already disappeared back over his wall, the elderly man quickly jumped after him.

While the elderly man was not really that great at cultivation, only having reached the Peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm at his age, he was still one of the most revered blacksmiths in the entire Flying Sword Sect. Allowing him to still have quite a bit of status, even with his relatively weak cultivation.

For some young kid to just walk into his backyard while he went in to grab himself a cup of tea?!

This was most likely the most surprising thing he had experienced ever since he had decided to settle and relax for his last few years.

Whoosh

As Chu Yang made his way over the wall and back onto the main road going through a residential area of the Flying Sword Sect, a cup of tea came flying from behind as Chu Yang barely managed to dodge to the side as he looked at the wall behind him cautiously, only to see a certain elderly man jumping over it.

”Damn brat! You think you can just waltz into other people’s home and run away when you get discovered!?” The elderly man yelled angrily as he charged towards Chu Yang, vowing to himself that he would spank some sense into Chu Yang when he caught him.

”!”

Chu Yang did not dare to look at the elderly man for even a single second longer as he quickly turned around and ran away, staying any longer and he would surely get caught by the elderly man… Chu Yang felt that he would not be in for a good time if that were to happen…

And what if his new master or even worse… New senior sister, heard about him sneaking into an elderly man’s home…? Even if he didn’t mean to and only accidently entered… Chu Yang could already see the laughing and mocking look his new senior sister would give him…

”Who is that?!”

”why is elder Wang chasing that young disciple around so ferociously? Just look at his face! How scary!”

”I fear that the young disciple is in for a beating or something worse when he gets caught…”

Hearing the surrounding disciples talk and pitying gazes, Chu Yang felt even more motivated to get away from the elderly man called elder Wang.

Sadly, Chu Yang was inferior to elder Wang’s cultivation and the elderly man was starting to catch up to him.

Is there nobody that can save me…?

As Chu Yang thought about this and looked back to see elder Wang just about to catch him, hope slowly started to drain out as Chu Yang started to think about how he could explain this to his new master…

There!

Just as he had given up hope, Chu Yang turned a corner and spotted a small open door leading into a relatively big house besides the road.

Without any hesitation, he quickly entered through the open door and closed it before elder Wang turned the corner and saw him enter.
