BACK TO THE PRESENT; SECT MASTER SECRET GARDEN “If Murong Wuque speaks and gives an order, and the sect elders give, who do you think the disciples will heed?” The system asked, the question not needing an answer. “He gives disciples who do not have suitable weapon weapons and treasures after each adventure, helping everyone with pointers as long as he finds the time, and making sure everyone lives in harmony. He's the perfect leader and father figure in the hearts of everyone…except those who have ulterior motives.” Alvin smiled. “They will obey the ice man of course. He seems to be the most influential person in the medicine sage valley—unofficially.” “But even so, he has no authority to enter this place, so I'm sure you know how important and private this place is to the sect master. He protects it even more than his penis, so you should know how much he needs this to remain in power and keep his shady doings on.” Alvin nearly giggled loud on hearing the system’s derisive

The scowl on Alvin's face after hearing about the people trapped in there was a spectacle to behold. “Don't even think about saving them. They have been demonized, losing their sanity. The traps around that place are complex, not something you can handle within a short while. In addition to that, there's that beast keeping guard and also touch sensors. Qian Beihe will immediately rush here with his disciples if anything comes close to that area. You're better off facing what you came for. Your current self is too weak to manage him.” “I had no plans of doing that. Maybe, I will tell Qin Li about it if I find a suitable time before I leave. Then he and Murong Wuque would make long term plans about how to tackle him.” “Stop. The invisible trap is two steps before you.” That was all the instruction Alvin needed, he had been carefully placing his foot on the green shoe marks created by the system's simulation. He had just frowned, and was about to ask the system the reason there wer

“What's going on here?” Shi Yue's voice halted the both of them. “First brother, why are you in my dressing room?” Shi Wei didn't bother to turn to her, his voice was cold and halting. “The question should be, what is this sneaky thug doing in your chambers so early in the morning?” “Who are you calling a thief? Are people from Tian Luo sect always so rude and sassy?” Alvin interrupted, giving Shi Wei a condescending glance. “Ah? You're back.” Shi Yue muttered in surprise as she looked at Alvin who was glaring at Shi Wei, and her heart skipped a few beats. “Do you know him?” Shi Wei asked coldly, pushing the blade closer to his neck. Alvin rolled his eyes and leaned against the wall, closing his eyes without a care. Shi Yue couldn't help but curse Alvin for putting her into a precarious and humiliating situation. Soon, all the sect members will know that a man was in her room. Where will she put her face after that? The bastard didn't come back for two days, making her wo

Shi Tong rushed into the room, his sword drawn. He had heard the source of the sound, and knew exactly where to search, with six other disciples who are members of his patrol team in tow. He rushed straight to the inner room, while two others stayed back and searched the reception rooms, guest room and her main bedroom, four came with him. He rushed to the inner room, and Shi Yue immediately screamed on top of her voice, making everyone freeze for a second. Those that were not already there ran after Shi Tong, triggered by her loud scream. “Senior brother, what hap…” His words trailed of as he saw the situation. Shi Yue's hair and body was dripping wet, showing she just got out of the bath tub. Her comb was in her hand, her eyes wide with shock and horror, half frozen in the motion of combing her hair. Shi Yue screamed at the top of her voice and the comb fell from her hand. She grabbed her sword and immediately made a slash towards Shi Tong's neck. “You scoundrel! How dare

Shi Tong suddenly spoke, surprising everyone. “I was the one who heard the sound, making me go closer. And then there was a man's voice. That's what made me conclude that it must be an assassin.”Even Shi Wei was surprised that he was willing to step up and accept responsibility. Wasn't he the one with a dog's conscience who only cares about himself? Why did he suddenly step up? But Shi Tong's reason was simple. He was at a stage where he needed others to have faith in him and lean toward him, he couldn't afford to act like a coward. Shi Wei looked at him, his eyes not betraying any emotions. He looked like always, a dead soul with an empty gaze. “And when you realized you were mistaken, why didn't you apologize and leave immediately? Why let it escalate to this point?” The question stomped him, he couldn't answer. Telling the truth was impossible. “It can't be what it looks like now, could it? You went to peep at your sworn sister's body, and even brought along a group to humil
