Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon! Chapter 421: Senior Brother Cares About Me

Zi Ji led Lao Huang around the world, searching for Guang Xiaoyu and the Earth Chicken. What she didn’t know was that just a few days earlier, her fellow disciple had plundered a second-rate power, successfully angering them.

The Sect Master issued a kill order: three Lords took action, accompanied by one Semi-Saint powerhouse and two formidable Sacred Soldiers.

On the third day of their escape, Guang Xiaoyu wasn’t the least bit afraid; on the contrary, she grew more and more excited.

The Earth Chicken, understanding the gravity of the situation, suddenly realized they might have caused a massive disaster, especially when she saw Guang Xiaoyu’s excited expression.

The Earth Chicken, her face dark, said, "Young girl, I think we should go back."

Mao Qiu, on her shoulder, had already sunk into a deep slumber. It was unknown what had happened; perhaps it had devoured too much and needed ti to digest it all.

"Do you think if a Saint Realm powerhouse makes a move, it will attract the attention of other Saint Realms?" Guang Xiaoyu blinked.

"Don’t..." The Earth Chicken spat up blood. "Let’s stop this madness!"

"What I an is, this matter is too trivial."

"..."

"How about we go for sothing bigger?" Guang Xiaoyu’s eyes sparkled.

"Your senior brother will kill ," the Earth Chicken turned pale.

"Don’t worry, I’ll plead for you."

"No, you won’t be able to escape either." The Earth Chicken genuinely panicked.

News had just reached them about the punitive army from seventy-eight powers and the three Saint Realm powerhouses that had erged from the Wuji Sect. Both the human and the chicken were shocked.

Especially the Earth Chicken. Several days after the storm had passed, she had expected Chen Pingping to explode in rage and search the world for them. But Chen Pingping was calm.

This made her fear the worst... The instinct of the Descendant of the Ancient Phoenix told her, the calr it was, the more likely sothing big was about to happen.

Alas!

Guang Xiaoyu cast a sidelong glance at her. "You truly are a chicken with the heart of a mouse."

"..."

The Earth Chicken cursed, "Damn it! I am an Ancient Phoenix!"

"You’re still a chicken."

"Get lost!"

"Fine, I’m done playing." Guang Xiaoyu shrugged, looking towards the ancient town not far away. "Hmm! My little junior sister has co to pick up."

「Ancient Town, Noodle Shop.」

Zi Ji, with her head tilted, said, "They’ve left."

They’ve left? The scholar was full of confusion, but when he saw Zi Ji enter the noodle shop, he then smiled faintly. "My treat."

"Okay, thanks!" Zi Ji smiled.

She ordered three bowls. It was clear she loved to eat noodles.

Bai Yisheng, beside her, was contemplating how to resolve the situation.

After a long while, the scholar chuckled. "If you stay here, will your senior brother co?"

The original plan hadn’t been to use this place as a battlefield, but since Zi Ji had arrived, they’d just have to play it by ear. Moreover, he was confident. As a Lord, he was more than capable of crushing ninety percent of his peers—cultivators like Bai Yisheng and Chen Pingping, for instance.

Oh my? Zi Ji set down her chopsticks, her eyes rolling. "Which senior brother?"

"There’s no need to hide it. I already know your identity and background. You are a disciple of the Wuji Sect from Heaven Martial, and your senior brother is Chen Pingping," the scholar said. "Do you rember what happened outside the City of Extinction before?"

Oh, right! She rembered now. Back then, she had asked Jiang Ni’er to take her to see her senior brother. In the inn, there had been two other people, a man and a woman—the man being the scholar now in front of her. So, by that account, is he a friend of my senior brother?

Zi Ji smiled. "He won’t co."

Huh? The scholar was curious. "Why won’t he?"

She answered, "Because I haven’t encountered anything."

"You an to say, as long as you face a powerful enemy and slaughter ensues, your senior brother will co running once he gets the news, right?" the scholar asked, narrowing his eyes.

"No!"

"Then why this ti? Does your senior brother not care about your life and death?" The scholar was sowhat frustrated. Chen Pingping, that bastard, he’s too damned nonchalant, isn’t he?

He rembered Chen Pingping’s instructions in the inn: he had actually dispatched his junior sister to carry out a mission while he himself hid away. Hmph! Truly a coward, afraid of death.

Zi Ji shook her head. "How could that be? My senior brother has always been very concerned about ."

The scholar was puzzled. "If that’s so, when you faced great calamity and were pursued by powerful enemies, your senior brother should have appeared, right?"

This was a complicated question. When the scholar asked this, he was unaware of Chen Pingping’s capabilities and also didn’t know the mysterious purpose of Lao Huang. Zi Ji, on the other hand, was considering Lao Huang’s presence. What kind of slaughter would it take to drive back Lao Huang and draw out my senior brother? Hmm! That doesn’t seem quite right either. Lao Huang should be even more powerful than my senior brother.

After pondering for a mont, Zi Ji seed to have found an answer and said, "No!"

"..."

The scholar felt like he was cracking. Why is this girl so straightforward? Doesn’t she know how to converse? On one hand, she claims her senior brother is very concerned about her, yet on the other, she says that even when she’s faced with disaster and slaughter, her senior brother won’t intervene. What kind of logic is that? You... are you really Chen Pingping’s junior sister or not?

The scholar was on the verge of collapse. "I’ll ask you one last question. If a powerful enemy wanted to kill you, would your caring and protective senior brother show up?"

"No, he wouldn’t!" she tilted her head, her expression serious.

"What if I wanted to kill you?" the scholar ground his teeth.

"Then he definitely wouldn’t."

"???"

What does she an? Why definitely not? Aaaaah!

The scholar’s face grew stern; he no longer wished to talk to her.

Bai Yisheng, listening to their conversation, couldn’t help but laugh, for he too had experienced what the scholar was going through. Zi Ji was a good girl in many ways; she just didn’t know how to talk.

The scholar poked at the now-soggy noodles with his chopsticks and began to eat, muttering to himself, If I wanted to kill her, her senior brother might not appear... so what if an elder from my residence took action?

That had been my plan all along. If that’s the case, then I’ll follow the plan! However, it would be best to include Guang Xiaoyu... If I have both girls in hand, then Chen Pingping will surely appear. Heh heh! Dare to take this young master’s Divine Weapon?

Having made up his mind, the scholar cald down. He put down his chopsticks and was contemplating how to capture Guang Xiaoyu as well when Guang Xiaoyu’s voice ca from outside, "Ah! Brother Bai, little junior sister, you really are here?"

Her face was full of joy as she stepped into the noodle shop.

Seeing this, the scholar instantly smiled. Heaven aids !

Bai Yisheng’s face changed dramatically.

The Earth Chicken hadn’t followed them. She planned to return and handle an important matter. If she handled it well, it should be enough to appease Chen Pingping. Before leaving, she offered a few words of advice, "With that ox around, your safety is assured. That being the case, I’m off!"

Guang Xiaoyu waved goodbye to her, then entered the ancient town.

Eh? She sensed the atmosphere in the noodle shop was off, sowhat stifling. Bai Yisheng’s face was grave, his gaze deep, and when looking at the man in white, his expression carried a hint of coldness...

As for Zi Ji, the little girl was completely oblivious.

Zi Ji said joyfully, "Senior sister."

Guang Xiaoyu nodded and then looked at the scholar. "And you are?"

"Oh, he is a friend of my brother and also a disciple of Fairy Valley," Zi Ji excitedly introduced. "He’s a really nice person; he even treated to noodles just now."

Bai Yisheng: "..."

Guang Xiaoyu smiled slightly. "Is that so? Then he must be a good person."

The scholar said with a smile, "It’s just a few bowls of noodles, hardly worth ntioning."

"No, this isn’t about a few bowls of noodles," Guang Xiaoyu maintained her smile...

For her, there was only one senior brother present, and that was Bai Yisheng. But Bai Yisheng showed hostility toward the scholar, proving this person must be a disciple from another residence. As for Zi Ji calling him "her brother’s friend," she found it hard to agree.

So, this wasn’t just about a few bowls of noodles.

Thinking this, she subconsciously glanced toward the door and silently added, It’s about three Lords and a Semi-Saint!
