Baili Chuxue's Dilemma

Although the newly released "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" novel brought a lot of novelty, due to the three characters' strange appearances, no one was willing to team up with them to run the Tomb of the Tomb of the Hegemon.

So much so that by the time the Bookstore closed for the night, none of the three had found their teammates.

Fortunately, they have three days to prepare, so they still have a chance.

As night fell, Azi and her two companions walked back to the inn.

The one-armed man remained silent, while Taishan followed behind in a simple and honest manner. Only Azi, who was walking at the front, was restless. Sometimes she would draw her spirit sword and wave it around in the air with a "swish~ swish" sound, and sometimes she would kick the pebbles on the roadside while muttering to herself.

"We finally get a chance to experience the world from the book, and no one wants to team up with us! What a bunch of bastards! They deserve to die!"

Today, Azi was extremely angry. She had been like this ever since she left the Bookstore, wishing she could kill all those people.

"Azi, don't be angry. I will kill them tomorrow to vent your anger." Taishan said naively from behind.

Azi rolled her eyes and said, "Can you even beat them?"

The Bookstore was mostly filled with powerful individuals at the Spirit King level or above; they even saw several Spirit Venerable. Their strength wouldn't be enough to kill them all.

"Hehe, if I can't beat them, I'll go ask Second Mother for help," Taishan chuckled and said.

"That's right!" Upon hearing this, Azi's eyes darted around as she looked at the one-armed man and said, "Big brother, we can call Second Mother over, then we'll have four people!"

The one-armed man frowned but remained silent.

Seeing that the one-armed man remained silent, Azi couldn't help but mutter, "Second Mother has been gone for so long, all alone; I wonder how she's doing out there, whether she's eating well, whether her lodgings are comfortable, whether she's encountered any bad people, and if she has, whether she's in danger..."

"Alright!" The one-armed man interrupted Azi, paused for a moment, and said, "Call her back."

"Yay!" Azi jumped up happily.

The one-armed man shook his head helplessly.

Taishan walked behind, a simple, honest smile on his face.

Dubian Town, Residence No. 88.

Zhang Yunji's family is having dinner.

This year, Chang Kong once again chose to come to Dubian Town with Zhang Yunji. These past two years have been his long holidays, so he doesn't have to return to the Sword Sect. He can take this opportunity to rest, spend time with his daughter, son-in-law, and grandson, and enjoy the leisurely life of an ordinary family.

Originally, the location could have been set in the capital, but since Zhang Yunji going to work at the Mysterious Bookstore, the whole family simply came along.

"Yunji..." Changkong Chang Kong spoke while he was eating.

"What's wrong, Master?" Zhang Yunji asked as he served food to his two children.

"I heard that your shop is going to hold a lecture today?" Chang Kong asked.

Zhang Yunji nodded and said, "That's right! It seems the Bookstore recently published a book of even higher quality, and the owner plans to recruit three thousand students to teach them the contents of that book."

"Is it that book, the Analects?" Liu Ying asked, munching on a first-tier spirit beast turkey leg.

Having participated in the internal resource competition among the 'Twelve Kings,' the remaining matters would be handled by the elders of the family, and Liu Ying didn't need to do anything, so she came along this time.

"You're a young lady, you should eat more elegantly. How can you be so unrefined?" Next to Liu Ying, a Beautiful Woman in her thirties took out a handkerchief embroidered with Bellossom to wipe the oil stains that had spilled from the corners of Liu Ying's mouth and scolded her with a smile.

She was Zhang Yunji's wife, Baili Chuxue.

Liu Ying chuckled and didn't refute.

At this moment, Zhang Yunji nodded and replied after hearing Liu Ying's words, "Yes, it's that book, the Analects; actually, speaking of which, I think you can all sign up to participate. I feel that the shopkeeper's new introductory lecture event might have some other deeper meaning."

"I want to go! I was planning to sign up today, but Master stopped me," Liu Ying said softly, glancing at Chang Kong.

Zhang Yunji turned to look at the Chang Kong, a look of confusion on his face.

Chang Kong coughed and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm already quite old, isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to be a student of a shop owner?"

Zhang Yunji exclaimed, "Oh dear!" and said, "Master, why are you still concerned about this? Although the shop owner is young, his strength is undeniable. Even Saint are willing to follow him. What are you embarrassed about?"

Nowadays, who doesn't feel a deep sense of awe when they hear the name Ma Feifei, the founder of the Mysterious Bookstore?

A small Bookstore became incredibly popular throughout the entire Great Chu.

A group of Spirit Master, Spirit Ancestor, Spirit King, Spirit Venerable, and even the occasional Spirit Emperor, would squat outside the Bookstore every day, hoping for a chance to go in and read a book.

The Bookstore not only boasts a variety of amazing books, but also has a Saint who acts as its guardian deity.

A man like that, let alone as a student, would have plenty of people calling Ma Feifei" Dad" even if he were his son.

Chang Kong was still somewhat hesitant. Becoming the shop owner's student was one thing, but the most crucial point was that this recruitment was for 3,000 people, which meant that all 3,000 would be the shop owner's students; if he also signed up, wouldn't he be on the same level as everyone else?

In this world, people generally value seniority.

Especially now that Chang Kong is a powerful Spirit Emperor, he is probably the one with the highest cultivation level in the entire Dubian Town. It would be quite awkward to put a Spirit Emperor like him on the same level as a group of children whose cultivation is much weaker than his.

However, Chang Kong was very interested in Ma Feifei's upcoming inaugural lecture, which was a lecture by the owner of the Mysterious Bookstore himself, sharing knowledge from Epic-grade- quality books. It would be a shame to miss it.

"It's decided then!" Zhang Yunji clapped his hands and said to Liu Ying, "Liu Ying, you take your master to register tomorrow. Chuxue, you go too. Anyway, there are no cultivation requirements for this registration. If we can take this opportunity to become the shop owner's students, we might benefit greatly in the future."

As Feng Shen Ji in the Great Chu, Ma Feifei has become a highly sought-after figure by many cultivators; however, because Ma Feifei doesn't interact with others much and spends most of his time hiding in Bookstore, people don't know much about him.

This time, Ma Feifei's sudden announcement that he would recruit 3,000 students to give lectures provided everyone with an opportunity to get to know or get to know Ma Feifei up close.

Even if everyone doesn't gain anything from this 'opening lecture,' the genuine teacher-student relationship is undeniable; later, when traveling across the Azure Dragon Continent, carrying the title of a student of the Mysterious Bookstore owner, who knows how many people will envy them.

After listening, Liu Ying glanced at Chang Kong and noticed that he hadn't said anything.

"Hehe," Liu Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Chang Kong still wants to go!
