Brothers and Sisters

Zhou Yuan returned from the meeting hall on the floating island to the Sky Orchid Plain and continued comprehending the essence of the Space Origin Law. Before watching Raymond and Cullen's match, he had already comprehended the essence of thirteen Space Origin Laws. Each essence had taken him about a month on average.

That day, while studying the eighth secret technique of the seventeenth essence of the Space Origin Law, the virtual communicator on Zhou Yuan's wrist suddenly rang. It was a voice transmission from his master, the Purple Chen Nation Lord: "Come immediately to my station above Purple Zenith Continent in the Virtual Universe."

The Purple Chen Nation Lord's station was on a floating island deep above Purple Zenith Continent in the Virtual Universe. The island was shaded by lush trees and filled with dense spiritual energy. The Purple Chen Hall in the center was especially imposing, and the purple gem set into its roof radiated a gentle light.

Zhou Yuan arrived at the floating island through the teleportation point. His master's voice sounded in his mind again: "Come directly into the hall."

Zhou Yuan quickly entered the hall. The Purple Chen Nation Lord sat upright in the seat of honor, while four powerful Immortal experts and another expert whose aura was slightly weaker than his master's stood below, sizing him up with interest.

"Zhou Yuan, come forward." The Purple Chen Nation Lord beckoned. "I called you here today so you could meet several senior brothers and sisters. They are all my direct disciples. If you encounter any problems in your cultivation in the future, you can ask your senior brothers and sisters for guidance."

Zhou Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "Greetings, senior brothers and sisters."

First in line was a burly man dressed in golden armor. He was tall and straight, with a resolute face and an imposing air that made him seem dignified without anger. He was the eldest senior brother, Yun Lei. Yun Lei was a Peak King-level Immortal expert who excelled in the Space Origin Law. The Panlong Spear in his hand was invincible, and he had once slain a King-level Immortal of the Demon Race on the Extraterritorial Battlefield.

He smiled slightly and stepped forward to pat Zhou Yuan on the shoulder. "Little junior brother, there's no need to be so formal. Master told us long ago that he had taken in a new junior brother. You must perform well in the Powerhouse Battle. If you come to Chaos City, you can come straight to me. I'm cultivating there in seclusion."

Standing second was a young man dressed in a blue martial outfit. He had handsome features and eyes as sharp as an eagle's. He was the third senior brother, Di Rui—now a Universe Venerable and the strongest person in Master's faction besides Master himself.

Di Rui was steady and reserved and disliked talking. He had been stationed at the Fifth Extraterritorial Battlefield for many years. He gave Zhou Yuan a slight nod, his calm voice carrying an unquestionable dignity. "Little junior brother, welcome to the sect."

The third was a man dressed in a black robe. His features were cold and stern, and his eyes were deep. He was the fifth senior brother, Mo Chen, and also a King-level Immortal expert. He gave Zhou Yuan a slight nod without saying much, but there was a trace of approval in his eyes.

The fourth was a woman dressed in a scarlet martial outfit. She was tall, with a hint of heroic spirit between her brows. She was the fourth senior sister, Xuan Yu—a King-level Immortal expert with a bold and forthright personality who had made friends widely throughout the Human Race.

She stepped forward and patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder. Her strength was no lighter than the eldest senior brother's. With a laugh, she said, "Little junior brother, welcome to our sect! If anyone dares bully you in the future, just give them my name. Senior sister will deal with them for you! Senior sister is also cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City recently. When you come there, you can come find me."

The last was a fat man dressed in a purple brocade robe. He wore a broad smile and looked simple and honest. He was the sixth senior brother, Gui Yue—a King-level Immortal expert. He stepped forward, took Zhou Yuan's hand, and said warmly, "Little junior brother, if you run into any trouble in the future, just tell your senior brother. I'll certainly do my best to help you resolve it."

The Purple Chen Nation Lord watched the several senior brothers and sisters interact, a gratified smile appearing on his face. "All right, now that you know one another, communicate well in the future. If you have any questions and can't reach me, you can also go directly to any of your senior brothers or sisters. I still have important matters to handle, so I won't chat with you any longer."

"Yes, Master." Zhou Yuan hurriedly responded.

"Don't worry, Master. Leave junior brother to us. There won't be any problem." The fourth senior sister, Xuan Yu, spoke in her carefree manner.

The Purple Chen Nation Lord nodded slightly, and his figure vanished from the hall in an instant.

Seeing that Master had left, the strongest of them, the third senior brother Di Rui, spoke up. "Let's not stand around either. The food and wine at the Drunken Star Tower on Purple Zenith Continent are pretty good. We can eat and chat at the same time."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Together, they left the floating island and arrived at the Drunken Star Tower on Purple Zenith Continent. The Drunken Star Tower stood in the central region of Purple Zenith Continent. It was a thousand-zhang-tall restaurant with luxurious furnishings and dense spiritual energy. They found a private room by the window and took their seats.

The eldest senior brother Yun Lei and the fourth senior sister Xuan Yu took turns telling Zhou Yuan quite a bit about Chaos City. The fifth senior brother Mo Chen and the sixth senior brother Wang Fugui also shared some of their experiences on the Extraterritorial Battlefield. The two of them were adventuring there, slaying foreign races to obtain battle merits and resources.

After three rounds of drinks, it was time for them to part. At that moment, the eldest senior brother Yun Lei said to Zhou Yuan, "Junior brother, since this is our first meeting, I don't have anything good to give you. I'll just give you some worldly goods—a little spending money."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yuan's Universe Galaxy Bank account received a message:

You have received a transfer from Yun Lei. Amount: 1,000,000 Hunyuan units. Please confirm receipt.

Seeing this, Zhou Yuan hurriedly rose. "Senior brother, this is far too much. I can't accept it."

Immediately afterward, Zhou Yuan received three more transfer messages:

Fourth senior sister Xuan Yu transferred 1,000,000 Hunyuan units.

Fifth senior brother Mo Chen transferred 1,000,000 Hunyuan units.

Sixth senior brother Wang Fugui transferred 1,000,000 Hunyuan units.

The fifth senior brother Mo Chen said to Zhou Yuan, "Junior brother, cultivate well. This amount of money is nothing to us, so just take it. Resources are indispensable on the path of cultivation. You don't need to be polite."

The sixth senior brother Wang Fugui laughed heartily and said to Zhou Yuan, "Fifth senior brother is right. This amount is nothing to us King-level experts. Just take it and use it."

Seeing this, the fourth senior sister Xuan Yu also patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder. "Little junior brother, this is the sincerity of your senior brothers and sisters. Just accept it; don't feel burdened. Buy whatever you want. If it's not enough, tell senior sister again!"

Looking at the sincere eyes of his senior brothers and sisters, Zhou Yuan knew that continuing to refuse would make him seem distant. He hurriedly thanked them. "Thank you, eldest senior brother, fourth senior sister, fifth senior brother, and sixth senior brother. I'll accept your kindness."

At that moment, the third senior brother came over and patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder. "Junior brother, those few have given you money, so I won't. I see that you use a blade, so I'll give you a good saber. I'll have it delivered to your manor later."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan was deeply moved. He hurriedly bowed and thanked him. "Thank you, third senior brother. This gift is far too precious."

The gifts had been given, and the meal had been finished. It was time for them to part.

The third senior brother Di Rui rose first and said to Zhou Yuan, "Goodbye, little junior brother. You can come find me at the Fifth Extraterritorial Battlefield in the future."

After saying this, his figure vanished from the private room.

Next came the eldest senior brother and the fourth senior sister. "Goodbye, little junior brother. See you in Chaos City. Remember to come find us when you arrive."

Finally, the fifth senior brother Mo Chen and the sixth senior brother Gui Yue said their farewells one after another. "Goodbye, little junior brother. If you run into trouble on the Extraterritorial Battlefield in the future, you can contact us."

Zhou Yuan bowed toward their departing figures. "Goodbye, senior brothers and sisters."

After seeing off his senior brothers and sisters, Zhou Yuan also left the Drunken Star Tower and returned to his house in the Virtual Universe.
