Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal

Chapter 91: Chapter 81: Senior Brother Lin’s Peculiar Hobbies—Spanking? Sunbathing? Drum-Beating in the Wind?

”Yes!”

Li Jiantang and the other three cupped their hands and responded, then turned to leave.

.........

Lin Chang’sheng returned to his small courtyard.

He had just stepped through the gate, hadn’t even gone into his own room, when Liu Zhengfeng from next door came out, holding a package. He handed it to Lin Chang’sheng and said, ”Senior Brother Lin, these are the Ice Profound Turtle materials we exchanged for Spirit Stones, plus a compensation for bothering you. Please check it.”

”Alright.”

Lin Chang’sheng nodded and accepted the package.

”Oh right, Senior Brother Lin, there’s some great news for you! You haven’t heard about it yet, have you?”

Liu Zhengfeng suddenly remembered something, sounding like he was showing off a treasure.

”What’s the good news?”

Lin Chang’sheng asked, puzzled.

”Yesterday, a Senior Brother from the Steward Hall came by, saying after you were attacked, you made it back to the sect through countless hardships. Your Dao heart is truly unshakable. The sect discussed it and decided to give you a generous compensation—including a Foundation Establishment Pill! Once you reach the peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer, you can go to the Pill Hall and get it!”

”The sect even put up a notice, calling on all disciples to learn from you—your tenacity and your devotion to the Immortal Sect!”

Liu Zhengfeng spoke, eyes gleaming with envy.

”Huh?”

”Learn from me?”

Hearing Liu Zhengfeng’s words, Lin Chang’sheng’s eyes widened in surprise.

He’d been wondering before why, after being delayed outside for a year and a half, the sect hadn’t done anything for him—and now, here comes the reward!

And it’s the Foundation Establishment Pill!

”That’s right!”

”So many people envy you! You should check out the notice at the Task Hall—they posted it there.”

Liu Zhengfeng said.

”Alright! I’ll go take a look. Thanks!”

Lin Chang’sheng nodded, put down the Little White Fox, and headed toward the Task Hall.

.......

Outside the Task Hall.

”Foundation Establishment Pill! And a top-grade Magical Artifact! Five hundred Spirit Stones! Damn! I’m so freaking jealous!”

”I came from Great Yu too, but I made it to the Immortal Sect safely! Back then, it was so dangerous—Lin Chang’sheng was pretty lucky, honestly. Plenty of new disciples vanished, and some even got killed by Demon Cultivators.”

”That Junior Brother Lin really is tough, spending a whole year and a half just to get to the Immortal Sect! Even got all his missed monthly pay back, plus such generous rewards—totally worth it!”

”This isn’t the kind of envy you can just wish for—you gotta risk your life for it!”

”......”

A whole crowd of disciples—men and women—were gathered there, all deep in discussion.

”Damn! Trekking all the way from Great Yu and scoring such a fat reward!”

In the crowd, Yu Xiaochang watched the notice with burning jealousy in his eyes. Suddenly, his gaze landed on a figure, and he quickly ducked his head, turning to leave discreetly.

”Damn it! Ran into him again!”

”What am I going to do from here on out?”

Yu Xiaochang slipped into the crowd, disappeared around the corner of the Task Hall, feeling as cold as falling into an ice pit.

He’d come to the Task Hall to look for an easy task to finish up this month’s requirements. He didn’t even dare leave the sect anymore, always secretly asking around about Lin Chang’sheng.

He knew Lin Chang’sheng wouldn’t ever let him go—this was a vendetta, impossible to resolve.

And Lin Chang’sheng was already stronger than him. Now, with all these rewards, including the Foundation Establishment Pill... He didn’t even dare imagine what would happen next.

”There really is a notice!”

”Sect Leader did a great job with the publicity—shows how much the sect cares about its disciples, won’t abandon anyone, really brought everyone together... But as long as I’m getting benefits, that’s all that matters!”

Lin Chang’sheng finished reading the notice, grinning to himself.

Murong Tian was still inside the Myriad Souls Banner, and whether Sect Leader Su Changkong was just putting on a show or actually meant it was anyone’s guess. Lin Chang’sheng decided to go claim his reward first.

”Senior Brother Lin! You’re back!”

Just then, a familiar voice rang out. Lin Chang’sheng turned to see Zhu Zhishan, looking at him with eyes full of envy.

”Yeah, just got back—I’m heading over to get my reward now!”

Lin Chang’sheng smiled.

”Man, I’m jealous... But it’s not like I could have ever pulled it off—if it were me, I’d probably never have made it to the Immortal Sect!”

Zhu Zhishan sighed.

”I didn’t really have a choice—I had to come. Otherwise, how was I ever going to get the resources to get stronger?”

Lin Chang’sheng shrugged, acting as if it was no big deal.

”Senior Brother Lin, go get your reward—I won’t keep you. I’m just here to pick up this month’s task.”

Zhu Zhishan cupped his hands to Lin Chang’sheng, said goodbye, and walked into the Task Hall.

.......

Foreign Affairs Hall.

”Nephew Lin, you did really well—this is the sect’s recognition! All your rewards, except the Foundation Establishment Pill, are in this Storage Bag.”

”Once your cultivation reaches the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Stage, come get the Foundation Establishment Pill!”

”Keep working hard!”

Qian Feng looked at Lin Chang’sheng, handed him a Storage Bag, and said.

”Thank you, Junior Martial Uncle Qian!”

Lin Chang’sheng took the Storage Bag, swept it with his Divine Sense, and revealed a satisfied smile.

It wasn’t as much as what Murong Tian had stashed in his Storage Bag, but it was still pretty decent.

”No problem, go ahead and get on with your business.”

Qian Feng nodded to Lin Chang’sheng.

.......

”I heard that ten thousand miles outside Celestial Extreme City, the earth veins erupted, and a bunch of Heaven and Earth Qi showed up. Tons of disciples at the peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer headed for Celestial Extreme City. Should we go try our luck too?”

”Yeah, sounds good. Let’s take on a task near Celestial Extreme City. We’re on the eighth layer now—if we’re lucky enough to get a strand of Heaven and Earth Qi, that would be amazing!”

Lin Chang’sheng was carrying the Storage Bag as he walked out of the Foreign Affairs Hall when a flurry of conversation reached his ears.

”Celestial Extreme City? Heaven and Earth Qi?”

When he heard this, Lin Chang’sheng stirred inside.

The news about Heaven and Earth Qi had actually come from Murong Tian—Murong had told him he once got a strand of Heaven and Earth Qi, but unfortunately, Su Changkong set him up and took it.
