Playing the Fox with the Tiger's Might
Lu Yang thought he should betray Luo Hongxia; he felt a lot of pressure being with his senior sister.
The eldest sister is tall, stunningly beautiful, and has a cold demeanor, making her very attractive to both men and women.
As she walked down the street, she attracted the attention of many prominent figures who turned to look at her.
It was all outsiders turning their heads; none of the Ask Dao Sect members dared to look at their senior sister.
Lu Yang is about to turn eighteen. He is 1.8 meters tall, half a head taller than his senior sister, but when he stands next to her, he feels like he is the shorter one.
"Eating Contest, registration fee is 1,000 Spirit Stone, ten people per group!"
"A competitive eating contest?" Lu Yang was slightly surprised. Cultivators could refine what they ate so quickly; how long would this contest take?
He turned his head and saw Grain Avoidance Pill of fasting pills piled up on the dining table.
Lu Yang: "..."
"The Pill Lottery costs 1,000 Spirit Stone or 10 contribution points per draw. Ten draws guarantee a high-quality pill, and one hundred draws guarantee a Dan Yun Pill!"
The enthusiastic promotion from the senior disciples of Elixir Cauldron Peak caught Lu Yang's attention.
Lu Yang noticed that his senior sister seemed interested, so he offered, "I want to try a few times, senior sister, would you like to?"
The eldest sister looked coldly at Lu Yang, and after a moment of silence, said, "Fine."
Upon seeing that it was the Sect Master and the Senior Sister, Senior Brother Elixir Cauldron Peak was extremely enthusiastic. "Senior Sister, please have a seat. Acting Sect Master, please have a seat as well."
"We're here for the prize draw."
Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Elixir Cauldron Peak looked embarrassed. "A lottery? I'm afraid my pills won't meet your standards..."
"It's nothing, I just came to have some fun."
As the interpreter of his senior sister's expressions, Lu Yang noticed that she was interested in the activity, and he naturally couldn't dampen her enthusiasm.
"Ten draws first." Lu Yang paid 100 contribution points without even blinking.
Senior Brother Elixir Cauldron Peak pointed out a large Pill Furnace Pill Furnace with an opening at the bottom.
"Ten taps will produce ten pills."
Lu Yang did as instructed, clapping ten times. Ten pills rolled out, nine of them of inferior quality with uneven color, while only one was of impeccable shape and was a so-called premium pill.
"What kind of pills are these?"
Lu Yang recognized common elixirs, but not those from Elixir Cauldron Peak.
"These nine are Creation Pills of Heaven and Earth, born from the essence of time and the creation of heaven and earth, full of chance. Even with my power, it would be difficult to refine a second batch. They are pills containing infinite possibilities."
Lu Yang was slightly surprised, and his gaze towards the nine inferior pills changed.
The eldest sister looked up at the senior brother from Elixir Cauldron Peak and coldly uttered three words: "Tell the truth."
Senior Brother Elixir Cauldron Peak shuddered, not daring to act presumptuously in front of Senior Sister, and could only tell the truth, "I was refining pills a while ago, and went out for a bit. I forgot the time, and when I got back, the pills were ruined."
"Since there's a celebration going on, why not sell them as raffle prizes?"
"Are you aware that one of the conditions on which I allow you to hold events is that you must not damage the reputation of our clan?"
"Don't worry, Senior Sister, I'll tell everyone I'm a disciple of the Five Elements Sect!" Senior Brother Elixir Cauldron Peak patted his chest and assured him.
"Um?"
"No, no, no, I mean I'll pack up and leave now."
The eldest sister raised her hand, stopping the senior brother from Elixir Cauldron Peak who was about to pack his things. "Don't rush, I'll try my luck too."
"This is 100 contribution points; I'll draw ten times."
The eldest sister gently tapped the Pill Furnace, the force contained within, and struck it nine times.
That adds up to exactly ten times.
Ten pills rolled out with a gurgling sound.
Each of the ten pills was plump and full, and three of them were entwined with rosy clouds.
Seven premium pills, three cloud pills.
According to probability, it takes 300 draws to get three Dan Yun Dan.
"Not bad luck." The senior sister's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile as she picked up one of the Dan Yun Pills and put it away, giving the rest of the pills to Lu Yang.
She didn't use Law Technique; it was pure luck.
She's always been very lucky.
The two continued walking, searching for the reason for the disappearance Body Integration Realm, while enjoying various activities. Gradually, Lu Yang became less reserved than before.
A master and apprentice happened to be passing by and saw Lu Yang and Yun Zhi.
"Master, you said Lu Yang's age and cultivation level are about the same as mine, so how did he become the acting Sect Master and even have the qualifications to preside over the sacrificial ceremony?"
There was a young prodigy who was secretly jealous of Lu Yang. He came from the Yuqi Sect, one of the nine top-grade sects, and his master was the Sect Master of the Yuqi Sect. He was able to come to the Ask Dao Sect celebration not only because he came from the Yuqi Sect, but also because he was one of the cultivators participating in the finals.
He and Lu Yang were of similar status, but their positions were worlds apart, which made him feel unbalanced and somewhat Qi Ingestion.
"Shut up!" the sect Sect Master of the Yuqi Sect hissed, reprimanding his disciple.
The young prodigy was startled. His master had always been kind and gentle to him; when had he ever reprimanded him like this?
The sect Sect Master of the Yuqi Sect was oblivious to his disciple's reaction; he was now sweating profusely and staring intently at Lu Yang.
However, his focus was not on Lu Yang, but on Yun Zhi next to Lu Yang.
Although he did not have the same lofty status as the five sect leaders, as a long-established top-grade sect, his status was still extraordinary, and he knew some things.
For example, he heard that hundreds of years ago, a disciple of the Ask Dao Sect defeated the leaders of the four major immortal sects single-handedly, including the renowned Abstinence from Killing Master.
Who is Master Abstinence from Killing? He is an absolute powerhouse even in the Tribulation Transcendence stage, several levels stronger than the ancestor of his own sect!
Even the master of abstaining from killing lost, which shows how strong the opponent was.
But this happened hundreds of years ago. So much time has passed, he couldn't even imagine how much that Dao Ask Dao Sect disciple's cultivation had increased.
"These are the true protagonists of this great struggle..."
Such extraordinary talent is probably unmatched by anyone.
"Master..."
The young prodigy saw the fear in his master's eyes, heard his master's mutterings, and followed his master's gaze to see Lu Yang, who was riding high on his success.
He had never heard his master speak so highly of anyone.
The young prodigy seemed to understand something, and looked at Lu Yang with awe.
The eldest sister noticed someone was watching her, turned her head to look, and seeing that it was the sect Sect Master of the Yuqi Sect, she didn't think much of it and looked away.
"What's wrong, Senior Sister?" Lu Yang asked, seeing Senior Sister turn her head, thinking she had discovered something.
The eldest sister frowned slightly, having indeed discovered some things she couldn't understand.
"Strange, why does it feel like there are so many unfamiliar Body Integration Realm?"
To hold this celebration, the Ask Dao Sect many friends, and people from all the Nascent Body Integration Realm came to attend, making it extremely lively. What puzzled the senior sister was that she didn't encounter many familiar Body Integration Realm along the way, but Body Integration Realm encountered many unfamiliar ones.
If a few unfamiliar Body Integration Realm are mixed in with a group of cultivators at the Body Integration Realm, it's hard to notice. But if a few Body Integration Realm suddenly appear, it becomes very obvious.
