Chapter 38: Qingyu Immortal Sect Has Sent People! (Please Follow!)

Meanwhile, Yan Xiao, who had been guarding outside, suddenly felt the ground tremble slightly, and a faint dragon’s roar echoed from within the estate.

He grew frantic with anxiety, especially as those guarding the main gate also looked stunned—two of them even left on the spot to investigate.

Just as Yan Xiao prepared to force his way in, he suddenly spotted a furtive figure slowly emerging, a garment draped over his head, his belly bulging, inching cautiously along the gate.

Yet the guards at the gate completely failed to see him.

“This is fucking ridiculous!” Yan Xiao couldn’t help cursing.

Yan Xiao’s note above his head, 【Insanely Awesome Little Brother】, quickly changed to 【Godlike Little Brother】.

As soon as Zhou Qing slipped out, the guards seemed to receive some order—they immediately shut the main gate and activated the forbidden barrier.

“Little Fourth!” Yan Xiao rushed over.

Zhou Qing tore off the garment on his head, his face pale as death.

The Silver Dragon Hand had drained him far too much.

“Hurry, go!” Zhou Qing pulled the hen from his chest, and the two fled at once…

Soon, word spread that someone had broken into the estate rented by Qingyu Immortal Sect and spied on over forty female disciples bathing.

So far, the peeper had not been caught, but after verification, one thing was certain: the intruder was not a male disciple of Qingyu Immortal Sect, and he had come prepared.

Soon, portraits were printed and distributed, and Qingyu Immortal Sect issued a stern warning: they would not let this slide.

Because five core disciples had been in the hot spring that night— their reputations could not be defiled.

At this moment, Zhou Qing slowly opened his eyes; the supreme spirit stone in his hand had dimmed considerably.

“Finally recovered!”

After putting away the spirit stone, Zhou Qing recalled last night and felt a wave of relief.

He’d almost gotten himself caught—he’d never again do anything so reckless.

Then he looked at the hen snoring beside him and let out a bitter laugh.

He reached out, and a spirit egg appeared in his palm.

It had been laid in his chest while they fled last night—unbelievably, its purity was even better than last time.

Probably because it had been fed directly with low-grade spirit stones.

“This can’t be absorbed lightly—it must be saved for a critical moment!” Zhou Qing muttered to himself, then carefully stored it away.

At that moment, a knock came at the door, accompanied by Yan Xiao’s booming laughter.

“Little Fourth, Little Fourth, come look at yourself—you were really that sleazy last night?”

As soon as Zhou Qing opened the courtyard gate, Yan Xiao rushed in holding a portrait.

Zhou Qing glanced at it—and his face darkened.

The portrait showed a half-crouching figure with a garment over his head, two holes cut for the eyes, clutching a hen tightly in his hand.

Seeing Zhou Qing’s embarrassed expression, Yan Xiao couldn’t resist teasing: “This portrait’s gone wild in Yanlong City—everyone’s got one. Most men admire you, guessing who this masked man could be.”

Zhou Qing’s expression changed instantly.

He instinctively glanced at the hen—he wouldn’t be able to take it out for a walk anytime soon.

At this point, Yan Xiao could no longer contain his curiosity: “Little Fourth, tell me—how did you make those guards ignore you last night? I thought all night and still can’t figure it out.”

Zhou Qing’s mood was already in shambles—he had no patience to explain this nonsense.

Many had seen him walking the hen, and the hen had been lost last night.

Before Zhou Qing could speak, a series of system prompts rang in his mind.

Of course—it must be Lu Yaoyao, Li Daoxuan, Shi Zhen, and Second Uncle—they were the only five bound to him, and Third Brother’s note hadn’t changed at all.

This was truly the most humiliating thing ever.

“You two troublesome brats, get over here right now!”

At that moment, both heard Master Mo Xingjian’s voice directly in their ears.

Clearly, Old Mo was furious.

They exchanged a glance and shuddered.

“One thing—deny everything!” Yan Xiao said.

Zhou Qing nodded vigorously.

They could never admit it—otherwise, the label of “peeping pervert” would stick to them for life.

Why am I so unlucky?

“Wait a second!” As they took two steps, Yan Xiao suddenly remembered something—he stopped, then swung a fist the size of a sandbag.

Zhou Qing, caught off guard, spurted blood from his nose and collapsed to the ground.

“Third Brother, what the hell are you doing?” Zhou Qing cried, tears welling from the pain.

Yan Xiao clapped his hands, clearly pleased with his handiwork.

“When I came over, I saw Qingyu Immortal Sect’s people climbing the mountain. If your nose swells up, they won’t recognize you.” Yan Xiao said seriously.

Zhou Qing got up, speechless, pointed at the portrait, and shouted: “I didn’t even show my face!”

Yan Xiao froze, then blushed.

He’d forgotten in his haste.

“Sorry, sorry—I’ve got it! You can pad your heels, make yourself taller. Even if someone points you out, they won’t suspect you.”

Yan Xiao slapped his thigh, suddenly struck by another idea.

Zhou Qing looked down at his feet—it actually seemed plausible.

Soon after, Zhou Qing entered with a red nose and awkward gait, immediately spotting several disciples dressed in Qingyu Immortal Sect robes inside the hall—including one of the guards from last night.

Master Mo Xingjian sat at the top, his face dark as thunder.

“It’s them!”

Before either could bow, a cultivation base Foundation Establishment peak disciple immediately pointed at Zhou Qing and Yan Xiao.

“What’s going on? What happened? This junior brother looks familiar… why can’t I place him?”

Yan Xiao stepped forward with an innocent expression, scanning the group.

The Foundation Establishment disciple turned to the nearby sister: “Sister Cui, last night it was these two who tried to force their way into the estate, claiming they were looking for a chicken.”

Cui Yingying immediately turned to them.

When Zhou Qing saw her face, his heart lurched.

She was the Jin Dan cultivator who had attacked him first last night—her aura was no weaker than Third Brother’s.

Yan Xiao’s face lit up with sudden realization.

“Ah, now I remember—you’re the junior brother we met last night! Fearless and unyielding, admirable! My brother and I have since reflected: breaking into someone’s estate at night was indeed improper. Fortunately, we listened to reason and left right after!”

Yan Xiao spoke without a flicker of guilt.

The Foundation Establishment disciple scratched his head and looked again at Cui Yingying.

After all, they hadn’t entered—the elders had checked the estate’s forbidden barriers and found no damage at all.

Cui Yingying said nothing, first studied Yan Xiao’s build, then dismissed him immediately.

Then she turned to Zhou Qing.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly—Zhou Qing’s heart pounded, but when she gently shook her head, his tension finally eased.

She bowed to Mo Xingjian: “Master Mo, it wasn’t them.”

Mo Xingjian above, upon hearing this, was stunned.

Cui Yingying said: “The intruder was slimmer than Brother Yan and shorter than Brother Zhou. I apologize for my hasty assumption.”

Mo Xingjian smiled and waved his hand.

“No matter. If these two brats were truly responsible, I would never let them off!” Mo Xingjian spoke with stern authority.

Cui Yingying and her group expressed their thanks, then added: “May I ask Brother Zhou one question?”

“Ask freely!” Mo Xingjian said.
