Us?
It was clearly because you were too arrogant for the Inner Sect Disciples to tolerate. Who knows where you got that sense of superiority.
Jin Guang silently complained to himself.
The matter had probably started like this: when they entered the sect, they were only at the Heavenly Immortal realm, which was nothing particularly impressive. They had merely been accepted as the Seven Attendant Immortals because their innate foundations and talents were decent.
Some Inner Sect Disciples, after adventuring through the Primordial World, had already reached the Mystic Immortal realm, and some had even attained the Golden Immortal realm.
Relying on his Heavenly Immortal cultivation and his identity as one of the Seven Attendant Immortals, Chang Er usually acted extremely conceited. The Inner Sect Disciples were wary of his status as one of the Seven Attendant Immortals, so they generally endured what they could.
But everyone had their limits. Today, he had gotten into another verbal altercation with an Inner Sect Disciple and even come to blows, only to be beaten up.
Unable to win, he had come to ask Master to uphold justice.
Who would have thought that Master had no intention of interfering at all and even thought fighting was a good thing?
"Enough, Senior Disciple Brother. Since Master isn't going to interfere, let's just forget it. Once our cultivation improves, who will still dare provoke us?"
Jin Guang urged him again.
If they had not both been among the Seven Attendant Immortals, he truly would not have wanted to associate with Chang Er. That fellow was simply courting death.
"If I don't avenge this grudge, my Dao heart will never be at peace!"
"I heard Senior Disciple Brother Xian Junyu was imprisoned in the Daoist Sanctuary by Master for three hundred years after making a mistake, and he's almost due to be released. Since Master won't interfere, I'll go incite Senior Disciple Brother!"
Chang Er had no intention of giving up.
After being cursed at and beaten up, if he did not pay them back, he would not be Chang'er Dingguang Xian.
Jin Guang, who was standing nearby, was also startled when he heard this.
He quickly advised him:
"Senior Disciple Brother, have you gone mad? Senior Disciple Brother was imprisoned in the Daoist Sanctuary, and no one in the sect dares mention it. Master hasn't said a single word about it!"
"If you go to Senior Disciple Brother, you might anger Master. Besides, what kind of person Senior Disciple Brother is—we don't know either. This is far too reckless..."
Indeed, aside from the few who had joined the sect at the beginning, those who had entered the Interception Sect over the past few hundred years had never met Xian Junyu—or, even if they had, they did not know that the person was him.
This was something Xian Junyu had instructed. He had told them not to reveal anything about him, and he had even reminded the Daoist Children.
Seeing this, Tongtian had also tacitly refrained from mentioning anything about Xian Junyu.
The purpose was to see what kind of people these newcomers really were.
However, this had also resulted in the later disciples of the Interception Sect knowing only that there was a Senior Disciple Brother named Xian Junyu who had been imprisoned three hundred years ago.
They naturally assumed that this Senior Disciple Brother must not be favored by Master. Otherwise, why would he have been imprisoned?
"Heh heh, rumor has it that Senior Disciple Brother is at the Taiyi realm and is the strongest person on all of Mount Kunlun!"
"He had the nerve to offend Master, a Saint. Dealing with a few Inner Sect Disciples after coming out will be even less of a problem. I'm confident Senior Disciple Brother will help me!"
Chang Er looked utterly confident.
Once he met Senior Disciple Brother Xian Junyu, given Senior Disciple Brother's fearless personality, combined with Chang Er's exaggerated account of what had happened...
Dealing with a few Inner Sect Disciples would be as easy as turning his hand.
What Chang Er did not know was that their entire conversation had been overheard by Xian Junyu, who was sweeping fallen leaves in the Daoist Sanctuary.
Xian Junyu looked at Chang'er Dingguang Xian and gave a cold laugh.
He had thought Chang Er was merely a little aloof by nature. He had not expected him to be so skilled at sowing discord. His scheming was truly deep.
A troublemaker like this, who stirred up problems everywhere, was annoying no matter how he looked at him!
"Senior Disciple Brother, have you ever considered one problem? You don't even know where Senior Disciple Brother is, so how are you going to find him?"
Jin Guang said helplessly.
Chang Er was far too good at causing trouble. If he stayed with him, he would sooner or later be dragged down. He decided that after today, he absolutely had to keep his distance from this fellow—the farther, the better.
"Well... that is indeed a problem..."
When confronted with this question, Chang Er began thinking as well.
Those little Daoist Children had apparently been gagged by Master's orders and did not dare mention Senior Disciple Brother at all. Asking them was destined to yield nothing.
As for the other Four Personal Disciples, each one was incredibly aloof. It was hard to say whether they would even bother responding if he asked them.
While Chang Er was thinking, the corner of his eye caught sight of the servant sweeping fallen leaves in the Daoist Sanctuary. His eyes immediately lit up.
This servant had been sweeping the Daoist Sanctuary ever since Chang Er joined the sect. He definitely had some clue about Senior Disciple Brother.
He could question him.
At once, Chang Er shouted at the servant:
"Hey! You, the sweeper over there! Don't look around—I'm talking to you. Come here, I have something to ask!"
Chang Er's tone was completely impolite. He did not regard the sweeper as anyone important at all.
When Xian Junyu saw that Chang Er had actually taken the initiative to seek him out, he walked over with the mindset of seeing what else this fellow could do to court disaster.
Jinguang Xian, standing nearby, also paid little attention to the sweeper.
Who would care about some lousy sweeper? Not to mention the later Seven Attendant Immortals—even the Inner Sect Disciples had never paid any attention to this sweeper.
They simply assumed Xian Junyu was an ordinary servant.
"Daoist friend, is there something you need?"
Xian Junyu looked at Chang Er with an innocent, foolish expression.
Chang Er, standing in front of him, instantly looked disgusted.
Daoist friend? He really knew how to flatter himself. You're just a lousy sweeper—who's your Daoist friend?
But for the sake of obtaining information about Senior Disciple Brother, Chang Er suppressed his disdain and asked indifferently:
"Daoist friend, I see that you have been in the Interception Sect for quite some time. Do you know anything about the sect's Senior Disciple Brother, Xian Junyu?"
He did not ask where Senior Disciple Brother was right away. Instead, he probed indirectly to find out whether the man knew anything. It was quite clever.
"Senior Disciple Brother Xian Junyu? Naturally, I know about him. I heard that his cultivation talent is exceedingly high, rare throughout the world!"
"Not only is his cultivation talent extraordinary, he is also extremely handsome. He is known as the most beautiful man in the Primordial World, and the female cultivators who admire him form a line stretching from Mount Kunlun all the way to the Western Lands..."
When asked about himself, Xian Junyu shamelessly launched into a torrent of praise, practically boasting himself into the heavens.
Jin Guang and Chang Er were left speechless.
He had only asked whether you knew anything about Senior Disciple Brother. Who told you to praise Senior Disciple Brother? And female cultivators lining up all the way to the Western Lands—that was far too exaggerated.
Though they were somewhat speechless, Chang Er had still obtained some useful information indirectly.
This stinking sweeper praised Senior Disciple Brother so highly. He must know plenty of things. It seemed he had found the right person this time.
Thinking this, Chang Er saw that the fellow was still boasting and quickly cut him off.
"Enough, enough, Daoist friend. We all know how impressive Senior Disciple Brother is, so you can spare us the praise!"
"I heard that three hundred years ago, Senior Disciple Brother offended Master and was imprisoned in the Daoist Sanctuary. Do you know about that?"
Chang Er asked with a curious expression.
He still had not asked where Senior Disciple Brother was, continuing to probe indirectly and making full use of his little schemes.
Xian Junyu did not expose this petty trick. He happened to be bored today, so he would have some fun with Chang Er.
