Chapter 61

At this moment, Glazed Sea and his group had already approached. Perhaps because the gazes of the Ethereal Peak group were too intense, Saintess Liu Yu glanced in their direction first, then nodded slightly to Shen Ji, "Lying Grass Sword, it's been a long time."

Upon Liu Yu utter this name, Shen Ji immediately wore an expression of utter despair. Why would anyone in the Cultivation World still remember his name?!

In front of his female junior sisters, this senior brother was just too sassy!

It would be better to just give him a quick and decisive blow!

Only cultivators who reach the Mahayana level can be given honorific titles, such as Immortal Venerable Wanghan. Young sword cultivators pursue fame and have a tendency to use their signature sword moves as their titles. Shen Ji's signature move is "Lying in Grass Listening to the Stream" from the Ethereal Sword Style. He once used this Sword Qi to cut off a tributary of the Demon Moon River, causing the river to flow backward, and thus his fame soared.

The move itself doesn't seem like much when viewed as a series of steps, but the sword technique is so long and difficult to pronounce that everyone just skips the last two words and calls it "Lying Grass Sword."

After the name spread, Shen Ji was completely dumbfounded, but since the reputation had already been established, he couldn't let the sword immortal descend to the mortal realm and change the name of this set of sword moves.

He could only curse and try to make everyone forget the name. After decades of effort, no one in the Flowing Cloud Sect called him that anymore, and Shen Ji gradually felt relieved. He figured he could just come up with a new name once everyone had forgotten about it. He never expected to be betrayed by the Holy Maiden of the Glazed Sea.

Does she have such a good memory?

Sure enough, when his junior sister asked him his name, it wasn't a good omen!

Holy crap?!

[Why is this saintess swearing? She's using such vulgar language, like "fuck" and "cheap." Did Senior Brother ever offend her?]

Shen Ji:...

Listen to his explanation...

He didn't want to either!

Seeing that her senior brother's expression was so awkward he looked like he was about to die on the spot, Xiao Tingyu whispered a few words to Qiaoqiao Qiaoqiao, who suddenly realized, "[So that's what 'senior brother' means by that nickname...]"

[After that, when Senior Brother's cultivation reaches its peak, won't he be called the Lying Grass Sword Master? Lying Grass Sword Venerable?]

[Hahaha!]

Hearing his junior sister repeatedly use vulgar language, Shen Ji's expression became even more utterly hopeless. "Holy Maiden, just call me Shen Ji."

Liu Yu remained expressionless as he calmly said, "Fellow Daoist Shen."

"Holy Maiden, these are my junior sisters." He introduced them one by one. Elder Bing glanced at them coldly, his expression showing impatience, as if he thought the Holy Maiden shouldn't waste her time befriending these disciples with low cultivation levels.

Moreover, the Flowing Cloud Sect is already the lowest of the four great immortal sects. She doesn't even take Shen Ji Shen Ji, let alone her fellow disciples.

She thought to herself, "The Flowing Cloud Sect has truly declined. What kind of people dare to participate in the sect competition?"

When his gaze fell on Wen Zhi, he couldn't help but pause.

This woman...

Her gaze shifted, and she glanced at Liu Xiu almost imperceptibly.

[Wow, Elder Bing is suspicious!]

[As expected of the Elder of Law Enforcement, his intuition is truly sharp!]

[But there's nothing we can do about it, Third Senior Sister looks too much like that person...]

Shen Ji & Xiao Tingyu: Who do they look like?

I'm so incredibly curious!

At this moment, Elder Bing spoke coldly, "Why is Hall Master Liu here?"

[that is.]

[He clearly came here for a secret rendezvous with me, so why is he seeing other women?]

[Hey kid, something's up.]

The second senior sister couldn't help but chuckle. If she hadn't heard her junior sister's thoughts, Elder Bing's seemingly ordinary question wouldn't have given it much thought. But after listening to her junior sister's thoughts and thinking about it carefully, she realized that beneath the elder's icy tone, there was indeed a hint of accusation.

That's really subtle.

That's really interesting.

Moreover, the junior sister was mischievously imitating Elder Bing's tone, which almost made Xiao Tingyu burst out laughing.

Elder Bing glanced over subtly—the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect, how ill-mannered!

Faced with Elder Bing's meaningful question, Liu Xiu calmly replied, "I ran into a few people at the city gate just now. A-Zhi is a fellow villager and a junior of mine, so it's natural to greet her when we meet."

[Pooh.]

[Shameless! He clearly has ulterior motives towards Third Senior Sister!]

Liu Xiu smiled slightly, his demeanor elegant and refined. "A-Zhi, you agree, right?"

[Pah! Pah! Pah!]

[You two, one of you loves to seduce married men and has a dozen mistresses outside, and the other loves to find young gigolos and specifically targets the young disciples of the sect. You two are a perfect match, you should be locked together forever and stay away from my third senior sister!]

Shen Ji:!

Xiao Tingyu: This is so exciting!

This Hall Master Liu has more than one lover? He even specifically seeks out married women? No wonder Qiaoqiao calls him a scumbag!

But if he has so many lovers, what's with this so-called substitute? How did he even set his sights on his third junior sister?

And this Elder Bing, I heard she did have a respectful and courteous dao companion of many years, but I never expected that she secretly enjoys playing around with gigolos?!

Does her partner know about this little-known hobby of hers?

These two are having quite a few fun behind each other's backs!

Elder Bing stared at Wen Zhi and said, "So you're from the same hometown. What a rare coincidence."

The word "fate" slipped between his lips, carrying a subtle hint of ruthlessness.

Oops!

It seems she's got her eye on Third Senior Sister!

Seeing this, Qiaoqiao stepped forward, blinked, and said, "Elder, Holy Maiden, we don't know the situation with the plague in this city. Why don't we go into the city first? My third senior sister is also a very skilled Alchemist!"

Elder Bing's expression darkened, and he was about to say something when Saintess Liu Yu said, "In that case, please enter the city."

Liu Xiu smiled slightly, "We have already discovered the source of the plague in this city; it is probably caused by a demon."

"With A-Zhi joining us, I believe we can refine the antidote pills much faster. Let's go."
