"It won't do, it won't do!"

"This is far too precious!"

Sect Master True Lord Yuntian protested repeatedly. He seemed to be politely refusing, yet both hands clutched the Enlightenment Tree Leaves tightly as he kept stuffing them into his robes.

"Sect Master, such a supreme treasure must be meant to be shared among us. How can you keep it all for yourself?"

Gouyuan Peak Master True Lord Gouyuan knew that this treasure was surely meant to be divided among them.

Seeing True Lord Yuntian trying to swallow it all, he immediately flew into a rage, shouted, and reached out to snatch it.

"Sect Master, where is your righteousness? Where is your pride? Have you started shamelessly throwing your face away?"

Tianji Peak Master True Lord Tianji was an old Daoist with a black beard. He realized that old geezer True Lord Yuntian was up to no good.

He immediately flicked his whisk and raised a hand, unleashing a Sleeve Universe, intending to take away the Enlightenment Tree Leaves.

But True Lord Yuntian had them pinned down tightly, making them impossible to take.

Unable to take the tea leaves, True Lord Tianji became anxious. He rushed forward, grabbed True Lord Yuntian by the throat, and roared:

"Boundless Heavenly Venerate, these are for everyone! You cannot keep them all for yourself!"

"Sect Master, let go! We split them evenly!"

The five Peak Masters and the Sect Master brawled shamelessly in the sky. You yanked my hair, I tugged your beard!

Even True Lord Xiaxuan, the only beautiful female Peak Master, joined the battlefield with her Divine Whip.

The Divine Whip specifically lashed True Lord Yuntian's backside.

Smack! Smack! Smack!

The crisp sounds were deafening!

"What the hell, why are they fighting?"

"Look! The Sect Master is fighting the five Peak Masters!"

"True Lord Xiaxuan's robe was nearly torn off by True Lord Tianji! Look... True Lord Xiaxuan is furious, she's using a divine ability!"

"That's not right. Hasn't True Lord Xiaxuan been stuck at the early Heavenly Human Realm for nearly a century? How did she suddenly erupt with mid-stage Heavenly Human Realm cultivation?"

"Yeah, hasn't True Lord Tianji stagnated at the early Heavenly Human Realm for almost two centuries? He's actually erupting with late-stage Heavenly Human Realm cultivation now!"

"Did all the Peak Masters hide their realms? So deeply concealed—worthy indeed of being Peak Masters!"

Many of the stronger disciples of the Kaoshan Sect raised their heads, staring in amazement at the battle high in the air.

This was not the first time they had seen the Sect Master and Peak Masters fight!

It seemed to happen several times every month.

For some unknown reason, they would start fighting in the middle of a conversation.

"Tsk, tsk, that old geezer True Lord Tianji is truly wicked. Of all the robes he could tear, he specifically went after True Lord Xiaxuan."

The many elders stood below with their hands behind their backs, watching the battle cheerfully and passing judgment.

They were long accustomed to it.

Sometimes, they even had a share in the group brawls.

Who in the Kaoshan Sect had not fought the Sect Master?

It would be humiliating to say it aloud.

One immensely powerful elder smiled faintly and stroked his long beard. "Why do I feel like they have all hidden their realms?"

Another elder nodded. "Indeed, just like you. You've been stuck in the Divine Infant Realm for a long time, haven't you? Tell us, how much have you concealed?"

"Cough, cough... Why did you suddenly drag me into this?!"

The immensely powerful elder coughed awkwardly, refusing to admit that he had hidden his realm.

"Outrageous! For the sake of mere Enlightenment Tree Leaves, do you still have any regard for me as your Sect Master?"

True Lord Yuntian roared. By now, his face was swollen and bruised, without a single uninjured patch left on it.

True Lord Gouyuan had seized his beard, True Lord Xiaxuan was tugging his hair, True Lord Tianji was choking his neck, while True Lord Wuji and True Lord Dishén each hugged one of his legs, leaving him unable to move.

Yet he still refused to let go of the Enlightenment Tree Leaves in his robes.

"Sect Master, esteemed Martial Uncles, please talk things out! They're only Enlightenment Tree Leaves, surely it hasn't come to this..."

Hua Yunfei stood awkwardly at the side. He wanted to reach out and help, but had no idea where to start.

"It has!"

"It absolutely has!"

At Hua Yunfei's words, the five Peak Masters became even more agitated and roared in unison.

A mere sip of tea brewed from Enlightenment Tree Leaves could send one into a state of enlightenment!

Even a problem that had trapped someone for a hundred years could be understood in an instant!

Their cultivation would also rise as naturally as water flowing downhill!

This was not the first time Hua Yunfei had given them something like this, so they understood. They understood very well!

How could they allow the Sect Master to keep such an important treasure all to himself?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Seeing their fight grow fiercer and fiercer, Hua Yunfei had no choice but to step in.

Great Transformation Universe!

A powerful spatial divine ability connected with the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. Runes surged forth, shattering the space around the six of them and instantly dividing it into six, teleporting them apart!

The six finally separated.

"Wah, yah, yah!"

True Lord Tianji flicked his whisk and, with no regard for his dignity, was about to charge forward again.

"Martial Uncle, no!"

Hua Yunfei flashed to the center of the six and smiled faintly. "They're worthless things. There is no need for you Martial Uncles to make such a fuss over them. Come, one bag each!"

His Spiritual Sense entered the Purple Mansion Grotto-Heaven, and five palm-sized bags appeared in Hua Yunfei's hands.

Inside the bags were Enlightenment Tree Leaves, flowing with Dao Charm and wafting the fragrance of the Great Dao.

Hua Yunfei distributed them one by one, giving each person a bag.

The five Peak Masters stared blankly at the Enlightenment Tree Leaves in their hands, their hands trembling.

Were these... cabbages?

One bag for each person?

"Cough, cough!"

True Lord Yuntian coughed lightly, put away the Enlightenment Tree Leaves in his Purple Mansion Grotto-Heaven, then flew to Hua Yunfei's side. With his hands behind his back and a stern expression, he said, "Look at the state of you all! Is this something a Peak Master would do? You attacked the Sect Master over mere treasure—what kind of conduct is that? Do you still have any regard for me as your Sect Master? Any regard for the Kaoshan Sect's rules?"

True Lord Tianji rolled his eyes, flicked his whisk, and muttered, "Who knows who started acting like a rascal first..."

True Lord Yuntian glared at him. True Lord Tianji immediately fell silent, not daring to say another word.

"Pfft..."

After glancing at the huge swollen bump beside True Lord Yuntian's eye, True Lord Xiaxuan could not hold back her laughter.

"Pfft..."

That laugh became a chain reaction. The other Peak Masters could no longer hold it in and broke one after another.

True Lord Yuntian was so furious that his face turned green.

Hua Yunfei was also holding back with great difficulty. Every time he saw the Sect Master beaten until his face was swollen and bruised, he wanted to laugh!

"HAHAHAHA!"

True Lord Tianji was the most unrestrained. He burst into loud laughter, bending at the waist as he nearly lost his grip on his whisk.

Boom!

True Lord Yuntian conjured a Thousand-Meter Palm and slapped it over. True Lord Tianji let out a miserable cry and shot into the distance like a meteor.

"Hmph!"

True Lord Yuntian circulated his Spiritual Energy, and the injuries on his face immediately healed. He swept his gaze over the remaining four Peak Masters. "Go back. Stop embarrassing yourselves here. I have something to discuss alone with True Lord Dao Origin."

True Lord Dao Origin was Hua Yunfei's Daoist title.

Every generation's Peak Master of Dao Origin Peak bore this Daoist title. It was a legacy.

Other than Sect Leader Peak, the other five peaks were the same.

True Lord Gouyuan put away his smile and glanced at Hua Yunfei. "Martial Nephew, such a generous gift—this Martial Uncle will come thank you another day!"

True Lord Xiaxuan, True Lord Wuji, and True Lord Dishén also clasped their fists slightly and thanked Hua Yunfei.

The Enlightenment Tree Leaves were far too important to them!

They had accidentally exposed a little of the cultivation they had hidden for years during that fight. They had to hurry back and cultivate some more to hide it again.

If they did not conceal a little, they simply could not feel at ease!
