“Why is senior Qin Li not here yet? Could he have been ambushed?” Ouyang Tingling whispered, pacing around. “Oh please. It's Qin Li, who can possibly trap him? Be real, can anyone keep him against his will, he will freeze the entire mountain before he let that happen.” “That's true, senior Qin Li is truly powerful, no one can trap him against his will. He would definitely find the time to send off a signal requesting reinforcement.” “But why is he not back yet, did he get injured? Should we go comb the forest?” Chu Feng asked, running his hands through his hair. “I'm here.” Alvin muttered in Qin Li’s deep voice. “Senior Qin, what took you so long?” Ouyang Tingling. “I mistakenly stepped into a trap which got me injured. I'm here, aren't I?” Murong Wuque looked at ‘Qin Li’ suspiciously, and his eyes went to his shoes. He scoffed and shaked his head. “Can you walk? You're standing in a funny posture. Was the bone affected?” She asked, walking around him. Alvin felt awkwa

The system chuckled slightly. “Don't you know the reason by now? He has sacrificed a lot for his juniors, in his bid to set a good example, and return the sect to the right track. And they see them all, he not just commands respect, he demands it. The incident today should have shown you the amount of influence he has in the sect. The sect elders wanted to take the treasures and give them scrap benefits and contribution points. Who does contribution points help in real life circumstances? What a joke! The things they got are way more practical, more expensive and important than whatever they would have been given.” Alvin nodded, analyzing the incidents that happened earlier in the evening. The elders they reported to wanted to cheat them out of their rightful possession. But Murong Wuque put his feet down, insisting on taking seventy percent and giving the sect thirty percent. He even cited the severe injuries on Qin Li's body, using it to explain how perilous the journey was. The

The young man was beside himself with joy as he inspected the sword. His eyes became teary and he ran towards Murong Wuque. “Bai Lu, what's wrong?” He threw his arms around Murong Wuque, shocking everyone. “Is he nuts? Doesn't he know the first brother detests being touched?” But unlike what was expected, Murong Wuque patted his back, letting him recover his composure. “Thank you, first brother.” “It's nothing. Go back and have a feel of your new found weapon.” Murong Wuque brought out a new leather bound book and pointed at the book he got as his share. “Duplicate.” Using magic, he transferred the words written on the ancient text he got to the empty new one in his hand. He cross checked it to make sure it was the same thing written on the new book and that there was no new book. He brought out two large white papers and repeated the process. He then turned to the horde of disciples waiting to see what he was upto. “Chen Jiao Jiao, Wang Yu, both of you come over.” H

Murong Wuque smiled at her and patted her shoulders. “Xia He, I do want the crystal. But you need it. There's a difference between need and want. Mine can wait, I can always cultivate by myself and find solutions for myself. But you're different, yours is directly tied to your health and well being. Of course, it makes perfect sense for you to keep it. It will also mold your temperament and ensure you're emotionally stable. Xia He, you can't refuse this or else I will get angry.” She took a deep breath and accepted it from him. “Thank you, first brother.” Murong Wuque looked around. “Zhang Qilin, Xiao Qi Feng.” Two boys that looked about sixteen to eighteen years stepped forth. “You both also have similar problems with Xia He, though not as serious and problematic. Qilin needs ice aura for his cultivation, and Qi Feng needs stability. When you need it, you can go to Xia He's villa and use it with her. You don't need to touch it for it to be effective. All you need to do is

The next place everyone wanted to be in was Qin Li’s qilin villa, and Su Mei's mercy hall. However, not everyone can enter there unlike Murong Wuque that can handle any kind of cultivation methods and physique, being able to offer pointers to all. This was because he was the type that lived for adventures, and he always collected different cultivation manuals. So even if he took in someone that doesn't cultivate his path or the same type of elements, he could still assist them, helping them to become the best in whatever path they chose. As for Qin Li, he was a sword master, known for his ice cold sword filled with danger. And he could help anyone cultivate any kind of sword intent, he was one with the sword, training his students to become perfect swordsmen. He could fashion out sword techniques and sword plays tailor made for each student. For those without a nice sword, he will go out and find one, or take out one from his sword collection. His students record rapid improvement
