My Master Knows It All

As soon as the words dropped, the people around fell silent.

This was no joke. Making the hierarch of a prestigious sect and another immortal become the Tao companion of the same person was already a disgrace for that top sect. If the other had to be the junior, it would be downright insulting.

Even if Immortal Lord Bi Yue could accept it, the disciples of the Dragon Chant Sect would not be able to.

The problem was that making Li Ke the junior was also inappropriate, as Li Ke knew Cao Zhen first.

Just as everyone was having a headache, Ling Xi spoke again, ”Why must there be a distinction between senior and junior? I recall that among mortals, there is a concept called equal wives.

We can adopt the mortal way, making both masters equal, or rather, both masters are the highest, and anyone who comes later can be the junior.”

As soon as he finished speaking, two voices rose almost simultaneously.

”Impossible!”

”Absolutely not!”

Li Ke and Bi Yue said in unison, exchanging a glance, then looking at everyone.

Li Ke spoke, ”We didn’t mean that we can’t be equal wives. We can be equal wives!”

Immortal Lord Bi Yue nodded in agreement, ”However, we absolutely will not let him find another Tao companion!”

Saying this, they gave Ling Xi a strange look, a hint of vigilance in their gaze. They found it peculiar how much Ling Xi had been talking today, not at all like her usual self.

They even suspected that Cao Zhen had secretly transmitted these words to Ling Xi to say.

But Ling Xi’s words now revealed everything, and they suddenly felt that Ling Xi might not just want the Four Treasures Peak disciples to call her senior sister, but she might also want to become a master!

This was absolutely unacceptable!

The two rarely shared such a tacit understanding and immediately formed an alliance.

Elder Copper Plate, seeing both of them agree, was keen on finalizing Cao Zhen’s matter first, so he directly said, ”In that case, let’s discuss the date for the Tao companion ceremony. I just discussed with Tu Zhuque that ten years from now would be a good day, Dragon Whistle Immortal Lord, what’s your plan?”

”You can decide freely, just notify me once you’ve set it.”

Elder Copper Plate, worried about further changes, settled on a date that very night—ten years later, they would hold the Tao companion ceremony for the hierarch of the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Immediately, the True Immortals congratulating at the Hundred Peaks Sect first extended their congratulations to Cao Zhen, then left one after another.

Cao Zhen’s Tao companion ceremony and his disciple’s were different matters, and they needed to go back and prepare gifts properly!

Cao Zhen had originally planned to enter the True Immortal Realm battlefield after holding his disciple’s ceremony to see if he could unearth the entire Eternal Assembly.

Now, however, with his Tao companion ceremony set for ten years later, he naturally couldn’t leave.

The day after the Bai Feng Sect announced his upcoming ceremony with Bi Yue and Li Ke, Cao Zhen was woken up by a commotion. Little Silver Dragon ran to Four Treasures Peak shouting loudly, ”Help! Cao Zhen, save me! Your disciple has gone mad! He wants to kill me! If you don’t come out, you’ll never see me again! Bi Yue, come save me...”

”What is going on so early in the morning?”

As soon as Cao Zhen stepped out of his room, Little Silver Dragon collapsed in front of him, complaining, ”Cao Zhen, quickly manage your disciple. He wants to kill me.”

Looking at the bedraggled Little Silver Dragon, with many scales lifted from his body, Cao Zhen turned to the angry Zhu Peng who had stopped attacking upon seeing him and asked, ”What’s going on? Why are you hitting Little Silver Dragon for no reason?”

As he said this, he also glanced at Zhu Peng’s face. One of yesterday’s two grooms was now bruised and battered, looking hardly better than Little Silver Dragon.

Instantly, Cao Zhen’s expression turned odd. Zhu Peng, a True Immortal, didn’t have many in the Bai Feng Sect who could match him.

Moreover, being a True Immortal, even if he truly got hit, such minor injuries should recover instantly. Yet here he was, visibly battered, clearly afraid to heal.

Besides himself, the only other person who could make Little Zhu Peng like this was probably Liao Youdi.

The newlyweds had gotten into a fight so soon?

Is this how they play?

Hearing his master’s inquiry, Zhu Peng pointed at Little Silver Dragon in resentment and exclaimed, ”He tricked me. After seeing you get two masters as Tao companions, I asked Duo Duo if she could also become my wife, and she threw me out.

I thought since Little Silver Dragon had many Tao companions, I’d ask him what to do. He said to just grab one and get married.

Following his advice, I went back to Duo Duo, and she beat me up. Duo Duo also said I wasn’t allowed to heal my facial injuries.

Afterwards, I went to Azure Pheasant Peak. When Liao Youdi saw my face, she asked what happened, and after I told her, she beat me up again and kicked me out, saying I could only return once Duo Duo forgave me.

Because of Little Silver Dragon, I’ve been beaten not just once, but twice, and now I’m homeless.”
