Chapter 414: Even the Sect Master Can't Go Back

Watching the many disciples fighting fiercely, Qi Xiong's expression was extraordinarily remarkable.

Indeed, these disciples' strength was completely beyond his expectations.

Even conservatively speaking, the Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak disciples, compared to peers of the same rank from other peaks of the Dao Yi Sect, are at least half a tier stronger in strength.

Even the Divine Sword Peak disciples, some Menial Disciples' strength could possibly match those weak Outer Door Disciples.

This is absurd; at least in the history of the Dao Yi Sect, it has never happened before.

"Junior Brother, you...... how did you cultivate like this?"

He looked bluntly at Hong Zun and asked; upon hearing this, Hong Zun replied with a proud smile.

"Nothing else; with pressure comes motivation, if you don't cultivate diligently, you won't get to eat."

？？？

Qi Xiong now obviously still couldn't understand the meaning of these words.

Just for a meal, you could have this kind of strength? Isn't that a joke?

You think raising cultivation is that simple? Know that among cultivators worldwide, many people risk life and death just to break through even a minor realm.

Although Dao Yi Sect disciples' cultivation is relatively simple, that is also due to the cultivation environment and resources, plus their own talent.

After all, any disciple who manages to join the Dao Yi Sect is an outstanding talent among the younger generation.

You really think raising cultivation and strength is as simple as eating and drinking?

The Divine Sense continued to envelop, the more he looked at Qi Xiong, the more surprised he became.

Even later, he couldn't help but clap and praise.

"Good, good, a Perfected Entwining Hand."

"You go deal with him."

"Sigh, is this how the Perfected Flowing Light Step is used? It lacks spirituality."

"Good Xu Jie, his Silkworm Hand has reached Perfected, hidden so deeply."

Qi Xiong watched with great relish; as Sect Master, what could be happier than seeing his disciples' strength soar?

As time passed, the victorious disciples quickly lined up, and at the same time, Ye Zhangqing's meal was ready.

"Let's eat."

Hong Zun and the others flashed to the second position in the line.

Originally it should have been first, but Yu Mo and the others arrived, so that position obviously no longer belonged to them.

Qi Xiong, seeing this, also hurriedly followed, but not knowing the rules, he wanted to stand ahead of Yu Mo and the others, and was immediately scolded by Yu Mo.

"What are you doing?"

"We're eating, Uncle-Master."

"Any sense of propriety? Go to the back."

"Oh."

Not understanding any seniority, he slinked back behind Yu Mo and the others; Hong Zun and the others couldn't help but chuckle, and seeing this, Qi Xiong said unhappily.

"What are you laughing at? Still not giving me a spot."

"Senior Brother............"

"Do you still know I'm your Senior Brother?"

Thus, Qi Xiong stood ahead of Hong Zun, with Yu Mo and the others behind, while Hong Zun wore a gloomy expression.

How come I feel my status keeps dropping? Clearly, when eating before, he Hong Zun was always in the first echelon.

The orderly meal distribution, these procedures were already very familiar to Hong Zun and the others; Qi Xiong held a large bowl of food and took a deep breath.

The rich aroma instantly made his index finger twitch.

He couldn't remember how long it had been since he last touched these grains; he had thought he would no longer have any appetite.

But now, facing Ye Zhangqing's meal, Qi Xiong couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"So fragrant."

As for Hong Zun and the others nearby, they had already begun to feast heartily, squatting in a row without image, taking big bites.

Seeing this, Qi Xiong also came over and squatted down, first picking up a chopstick of fish-flavored shredded pork and putting it in his mouth.

The aroma was overwhelming; the rich meat fragrance exploded in his mouth.

His eyes suddenly brightened, and then Qi Xiong seemed to understand why the disciples were so desperate for a meal.

Looking outside the courtyard, those disciples who hadn't gotten a spot each stretched their necks, frantically inhaling the aroma.

Even a slightly better position requires a struggle.

With such delicious food, no wonder, no wonder it's like this.

Moreover, the food's efficacy, Qi Xiong naturally discovered it right away.

"Comparable to medicinal pills."

This is Qi Xiong's evaluation; for him it might not be useful, but for the disciples it is absolutely beneficial.

Even if one could eat such meals every day, it would be hard for cultivation not to improve.

No wonder the Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak disciples' strength increases so quickly.

One's own diligent cultivation is one aspect, but Ye Zhangqing's meal is also indispensable.

Understood, after personally trying such deliciousness, Qi Xiong finally understood.

Wolfing down his food, after finishing a meal, Qi Xiong comfortably exhaled, then immediately gave Hong Zun a resentful look.

"Hong Zun, you truly are my good junior brother."

"Huh???"

These words left Hong Zun bewildered; he raised his head, looking puzzled at the Senior Brother.

Such delicious food, and you've actually been hiding it from me all along.

And Shi Song, you also already knew, right?

As the Senior Brother, he only now tasted such deliciousness; Qi Xiong could say he was quite displeased.

Upon hearing that, Hong Zun gave an embarrassed smile.

Hehe, Senior Brother, aren't you busy? So I didn't have time to tell you.

Busy? Even if you're busy, you always have time to eat, right?

That's right, that's right; after we junior brothers return to the Dao Yi Sect, we'll welcome the Senior Brother to come often.

Return to the Dao Yi Sect?

Still waiting for you to go back? Qi Xiong glanced at Hong Zun with a look of contempt, then said unhurriedly.

Yuan Mountain has been destroyed; nowadays Dongzhou is not peaceful. You're out traveling, and I'm worried too, so as the Senior Brother, I've decided to accompany you on your travels.

Huh???

Travel together? Upon hearing that, Hong Zun was stunned, then he spoke somewhat suspiciously.

What about the Sect's affairs?

Naturally, Junior Brother Wu Shou will handle it.

What a good partner; upon hearing that, Hong Zun was actually left speechless.

Isn't that not good, Senior Brother?

What's not good about it? It's decided like this.

After Yu Mo and the other two, the Sect Master Qi Xiong also couldn't return.

After getting up and washing the bowl, he came with hands behind his back to Ye Zhangqing, seeing Ye Zhangqing being all lovey-dovey with Bai Hua Xianzi, Qi Xiong found this kid extremely pleasing to the eye.

Before, I thought he wasn't quite a match for Bai Hua Junior Sister, but now upon another look, it's the junior sister who has married up.

Senior Brother.

Seeing Qi Xiong approach, Bai Hua Xianzi called out, and Ye Zhangqing also rose to salute.

Disciple pays respects to the Sect Master.

Hmm, you're not bad; our sect has high hopes for you. In the future, if anything comes up, feel free to come find me directly.

With a kind expression, he patted Ye Zhangqing's shoulder, encouraged him a bit, and then Qi Xiong left satisfied.

Once Qi Xiong came, he couldn't go back; on another front, the various major forces also learned of the news that Qi Xiong was rushing to Yuan Mountain to meet up with Hong Zun and the others.

They had been keeping an eye on Yu Mo and the other two all along, and since Qi Xiong never intended to hide his whereabouts, naturally it wasn't a secret either.

As expected, I knew that despicable little man Qi Xiong was surely up to no good, going alone to meet with Yu Mo and the others—he must be planning to make a move.

At the Luo Xia Sect's encampment, Su Luoxing said with a wise expression.
