The others would peek at Murong Wuque at intervals. His clothes were ripped at some places, the first time they were seeing him in something that was not flawlessly white and free from creases.

“First brother seems to be really angry this time. He misunderstood me. He…”

Chu Feng pulled Su Ying into his arms and patted her back.

“It's nothing. First brother loves you the most. How can he bear to stay angry at you? Besides, you worked the hardest down there. His words were directed at us, not you.”

“He's not angry, just exhausted.” Yang Yang chipped in.

“Instead of gossiping there, you guys should go gather some fruits and also make sure that there's no demon remaining in the surrounding forests. You all have fifteen minutes. The girls should stay behind, it's already nightfall and it's not safe for them. Once the fifteen minutes is up, we will go up the mountain and return to the valley. Hurry up, otherwise you will be locked out of the sect, I won't wait or return to search

    Alvin took a deep breath and sighed heavily, biting his lips. “It doesn't matter. Even if it's a suicide mission I will still enter and take it. My brother has been poisoned with a deadly poison and the only cure lies in the valley. I must retrieve it no matter what.” Qin Li kept quiet, watching him as if considering some things. “You could have asked Murong Wuque, first brother seems to think highly of you, he would definitely agree to help. Isn't that better than going through all the stress? Forget it, release me and tell me what you want, first brother and I will find a way to retrieve it for you. There will be no need to resort to stealing.” Alvin was taken aback but he immediately chuckled. “What I want, I'm afraid that even Murong Wuque cannot bring it to me. Even if you guys want to, I won't let you do such stupid things and end up in trouble.” Qin Li frowned. “Let me guess, you don't only want to steal one item. You have multiple targets.

    “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

    But the next moment, Allvin chuckled lightly, not looking bothered at all. “You're my system, right? Aren't you here to make my desires happen?” “Hmmm. You keep getting more and more shameless… unruly even. Are you trying to make me work like a slave, for free?” “I can give you a bj as payment if you want. That's if you actually have a physical body.” Alvin’s voice was mischievous “You! You're naughty. Who would believe you're still a virgin?” Alvin chuckled, enjoying the system's company. It's not only the system who is allowed to tease him, it's good for him to tease it. These past few days the system kept silent, he had been bored senseless. He was relieved to have his capable system beside him. “I knew it, you low key enjoy my company and teasing.” Alvin went speechless. How could he forget that the system could hear everything going on in his mind? “This is invasion of privacy.

    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

    Another set of people the elders didn't dare to mess with are Qin Li from the southern Qin family, Su Ying from blossom clan, Chu Feng from the Chu family, Su Mei the healing god's descendant. As for Yang Yang and Zhang Chen, while from prestigious families, they were not among the most favored kids of their clans. But that didn't mean they would let it slide if someone attacked them. These sets of students only came to hone their skills in a competitive environment, not that they needed any of the resources provided by the valley. While the children of the elders and valley master could walk sideways in the valley, abusing disciples from less prestigious homes, the ones from these terrifying backgrounds can make even the elders take steps back. If it was in the valley's heydays, they need not pay anyone attention or give anyone face. But the valley has been experiencing steady decline in the past century, decaying inside out, while maintaining its prestigious shell outside. And

    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

    Alvin Kent yawned, feeling exhausted. He had been working various jobs since morning, not counting the household chores that always kept him busy at home. He just graduated from college using partial scholarships, and had not been able to find a corporate job, making him forced to continue his odd jobs. “A glass of mocktail please.” A girl shouted from a corner where she and her noisy friends were sitting. “Coming right up.” Alvin quickly served them and turned to leave. A familiar song began to play, making him frown. “Isn't this the song Sonya escorted me to their company to record last week? How come it's already on air?” Alvin whispered, feeling confused. “Why did she release it without telling me? Was it supposed to be a surprise?” He muttered, knowing there was no way his wife of two years would intentionally try to make him happy, even if the sun rose from the north. “Fred Coleman's song is playing. Wow! He released this song just yesterday and the song is already cli

    “In case you forgot, grandpa is no longer here.” Sonya whispered, her eyes cold and malicious as she took a menacing step towards him. Alvin scoffed and rolled his eyes at the sheer ridiculousness of it all. “Free food? I handed over my salary every month for my share of the food which I never ate. I worked tirelessly, cooking, cleaning, doing the laundry, and all manner of work. You all always say that since Sonya is a star, she should focus more on her acting career. I never complained and endured all the abuses you unleashed on me for the past three years. However, I will never let this go. Sonya, give me back the money I gave you for the song's production, and return the rights to my songs.” “You must be pretty stupid to say that. Do you think that trash like you deserves wealth and fame? You're just a toad lusting after swan meat. All your life you're trash and will remain so. It's also good you're back. Here are the divorce papers and share transfer certificates, sign them.”

    Alvin was breathing heavily as he leaned against his needle for support, his body suit was stained with filth, and he was wheezing. Zhang Chen killed the last one standing, and stabbed his sword into the ground. Alvin looked at him with a newfound respect. Since he was that strong, why didn't he do much in the underground palace, leaving Murong Wuque, Alvin, Qin Li, Su Ying and Chu Feng to do the bulk of the work. He felt cheated but he could only sigh and console himself with the fact that he was gaining real combat experience through the bitter battles he had been engaging in since he arrived. “Everyone step back!” Su Ying shouted, her voice grating as she swirled her whip high up in the air. She swung it in a circle, sweeping up the tents, the dead bodies, and heaps of dirt transformed from dead zombies, all into a huge pile. Once everything was piled up in the middle, Zhang Chen set fire to it, using a mysterious lava. ‘Could this be the molten lava from the volcano?’ A

    Qin Li stopped before a young girl, severely bleeding and gasping like one on her last legs. “Are you alright? What happened?” She gasped and wheezed, repeating what happened, in an even more graphic detail. Ouyang Tingling and the rest arrived at this point, listening in on the story. “Do you know the direction the demon hid?” The girl nodded, and pointed in a direction. Qin Li smiled at her and patted her hair. “Good girl, we will find that despicable demon soon.” “You have to take revenge for us, especially those who lost their lives.” The girl whispered, gasping and wheezing. Qin Li nodded and smiled. “Of course, they must definitely be avenged.” He whispered and stretched to his full height. Qin Li turned to his companions, his eyes cold and expressionless. “Let's go.” They immediately turned to leave, in the direction she pointed. With a careless backhand throw, Qin Li unleashed an arrow at the girl, nailing her to the tree. The arrow went through her he
