Chapter 8: Why are your notes for me always so long?

Ever since Yan Xiao asked for the two reverse scales of the Ice Soul Ghost-Scaled Fish, he had been in seclusion, and he didn't know what he was tinkering with.

Facing Zhou Qing's inquiry, Yan Xiao seemed a bit embarrassed, poking his head out and looking around: "Did Old Mo scold me again?"

Zhou Qing: "......"

As soon as he saw Zhou Qing's expression, Yan Xiao understood something in his heart.

This Old Mo, always taking him as an educational example.

It's also that he didn't live up to expectations. This time the refining of that thing failed again, and he was ridiculed.

However—

Soon, Yan Xiao looked Zhou Qing up and down, very surprised.

"No, is the energy of two Ice Soul Ghost-Scaled Fish so great? It directly sent you to the Foundation Establishment realm?"

Zhou Qing didn't know how to explain the Spirit-Hiding Insects on the jade pillar to him. Two fish couldn't help him leap three stages.

But before Zhou Qing could speak, Yan Xiao slapped his forehead.

"It's over, almost forgot the main thing. Chief Senior Brother asked me to bring something in for him!"

Yan Xiao said and was about to leave.

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up: "Chief Senior Brother is coming out of seclusion?"

Yan Xiao shook his head: "Still early. God knows how long he needs for this seclusion."

"Okay, then is there any news about Second Yuan Shijie recently?" Zhou Qing asked again.

Ever since he came to this world and luckily entered Taiqingmen, Second Yuan Shijie Luo Lingling really took care of him like a younger brother.

However, two years ago, she suddenly said she wanted to go out to handle some private matters, and she hasn't returned yet.

I don't know how she is now?

Yan Xiao shook his head again: "No, but don't worry, Second Yuan Shijie is very fierce. Even Chief Senior Brother is afraid of her sometimes. With her cautious personality, I guess no one can hurt her."

Zhou Qing agreed very much with this point.

If it's about being an 'old six', the three of them combined probably wouldn't compare to Second Yuan Shijie's heart.

Afterwards, he looked at the question mark on Third Shixiong's head and bound him immediately.

If he could better farm Heart Mirror points, Third Shixiong was undoubtedly the best choice. If there was nothing special, the two of them were often together.

Soon, seven golden words slowly appeared on the head of Yan Xiao, who was turning and leaving in a hurry—【A lifetime good Junior Brother】.

Looking at this scene, Zhou Qing suddenly smiled.

"You are also my lifetime good Senior Brother!"

Zhou Qing, who returned to his residence, began to plan for the next steps.

That is to continue farming ignore points and Heart Mirror points. It would be even better if the two could complement each other.

Afterwards, Zhou Qing took out the manual and searched for a while. For the next month, core disciples from various peaks would no longer give lectures.

If you want to get ignore points again, you have to think of a way yourself.

Unless—

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up suddenly.

Don't forget, he is also a core disciple and has the qualification to lecture.

I remember the last lecture was three years ago. He was only at the Qi Condensation Fifth Layer, and no one came to listen. After all, some Outer Sect disciples had higher cultivation than him at that time.

He was afraid that his shallow knowledge would lead them all into the ditch.

"What if I borrow Third Shixiong's name?" Zhou Qing chuckled and immediately had an idea.

However, he still had to communicate with Third Shixiong in advance.

The next day, Yan Xiao, who learned the news, patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder and said with some heartache: "What's this? I'll just show up by then. Furthermore, you are now in the Foundation Establishment realm, and you have already had your own understanding of cultivation. It's just a lecture, it's easy."

Hearing Third Shixiong say this, Zhou Qing finally had some confidence.

When they heard that core disciple Yan Xiao was going to lecture in the 【Lecture Hall】 two days later, the Outer Sect disciples of Little Spirit Peak were boiling.

Some people even ran over to line up that day, fearing they would be late.

No way, Little Spirit Peak has only four core disciples in total. One is in seclusion all year round, one is often out, and the youngest one doesn't understand anything.

Only Yan Xiao's strength is passable, so everyone swarmed over when they finally caught such an opportunity.

Looking at this scene, Zhou Qing smiled bitterly.

In the end, his own strength is too weak, and there is no sense of conviction.

However, because too many disciples came this time, and even Inner Sect and True Inheritance came to join in the fun, the ordinary 【Lecture Hall】 couldn't hold them at all.

So at Zhou Qing's suggestion, the location of this lecture was changed to the Bluestone Square.

"Are you sure you can hold the scene? You really don't need my help?" Yan Xiao asked with some worry.

After all, when Junior Brother lectured a few years ago, only two hundred people came, and by the end, only thirty people were left in the venue.

The scene was as awkward as it could be. Fortunately, Junior Brother's temperament was okay, and he insisted on finishing the lecture under psychological pressure.

Zhou Qing let out a long breath and said: "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I have confidence in myself."

Looking at Zhou Qing's firm eyes, Yan Xiao couldn't help but feel relieved.

【Heart Mirror points +6】

"Hmm?"

Hearing the prompt, Zhou Qing looked at Third Shixiong suspiciously.

Sure enough, the note 【A lifetime good Junior Brother】 on his head turned into 【Strong little Junior Brother】 in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Qing didn't know what to say for a moment. What's so strong about this? I just wanted to farm points.

【Heart Mirror points +7】

Before Zhou Qing could tease anything, the prompt sounded again.

He hurriedly looked over, and the note on Third Shixiong's head didn't change anymore.

What does it mean?

Is it Lu Yaoyao or Chief Senior Brother Li Daoxuan?

【Heart Mirror points +9】

The next moment, the prompt sounded again, directly stunning Zhou Qing.

What do those two mean?

Why did they have any views on me for no reason?

"Why do you keep looking at my head? Am I losing hair recently?"

Seeing Zhou Qing look at his head three times in a row, Yan Xiao was startled, hurriedly reached out to touch it, and lowered his head to let Zhou Qing see.

Zhou Qing knew he had misunderstood and hurriedly said: "No, no, I just didn't notice before, Senior Brother, your head is quite round."

"Scared me. But what you said is wrong. My face is round, so my head is naturally round. You find me someone with a round face and a flat head."

After Yan Xiao finished speaking, the two imagined it involuntarily, and then looked at each other and burst into laughter.

As the lecture time arrived, facing nearly three thousand Outer Sect disciples on the square, Yan Xiao began to lecture.

It's just that after a while, he suddenly covered his stomach, looking very uncomfortable.

Afterwards, with an apologetic look, he let Zhou Qing go up to replace him for a while, and then left in a hurry.

Everyone watched Yan Xiao leave with longing eyes, and could only wait expectantly. As for Zhou Qing on the platform, everyone just listened perfunctorily.

I don't know why, but as they listened, everyone ignored Zhou Qing, who was talking endlessly, and chatted to themselves, and some even fell asleep.

Looking at more and more people ignoring him, Zhou Qing couldn't help but lift a curve at the corner of his mouth.

It works!

So he gradually slowed down the speed of the lecture.

【Ignore points +1】

【Ignore points +1】

【Ignore points +1】

【Skill fragment +1】

As time passed bit by bit, some people couldn't wait for Yan Xiao and completely ignored Zhou Qing, who had no presence, and chose to leave directly.

Zhou Qing didn't stop them, but seeing new skill fragments farmed out, he couldn't help but feel excited.

Seemingly sensing something, he immediately sat up straight and looked around, and soon saw Lu Yaoyao and Li Daoxuan appearing at the edge of the square at some point, staring at him with complex expressions.

And the note 【So amazing】 on Lu Yaoyao's head turned back to 【So cute】 at some point.

And the note 【Jealous rival】 on Li Daoxuan's head turned into 【Pervert who likes to peek at bathing】.

Oh, this is the reason for the 16 Heart Mirror points that suddenly appeared yesterday.

No, it's just that I don't understand one thing. Why are your notes for me always so long, Senior Brother Li?

Can't get over the peeking at bathing thing, right?

【Heart Mirror points +5】

Seeming to notice Zhou Qing's gaze, Lu Yaoyao forced a smile and made a cheering gesture.

But the 【So cute】 on her head turned into 【So heartbroken】 at a speed visible to the naked eye.

【Heart Mirror points +6】

Zhou Qing immediately looked at Li Daoxuan. The entry on his head didn't change. Looking around, he soon found Third Shixiong in the corner.

The note on his head turned into 【Sad little Junior Brother】.

At this very moment, Yan Xiao looked at Zhou Qing, who was at a loss on the platform, and felt heartbroken.

With so many people, they didn't take the little Junior Brother seriously at all.

It's fine to pretend, but how come everyone acts as if they don't see him? At least respect the status of a core disciple, right?

What's wrong, is the cultivation low and not worthy of your preaching?

Will it lead you astray?

At this moment, how sad must the little Junior Brother be?

Seeing more and more people leaving, Zhou Qing let out a long sigh and had to wave to Third Shixiong in the distance.

After all, now that he is being stared at by Lu Yaoyao and Li Daoxuan, he can't farm ignore points.

Furthermore, according to the original plan, he was going to let Third Shixiong go on stage to continue the lecture when the time was right. He couldn't really be selfish and ruin his reputation and majesty.

Seeing this, Yan Xiao had to leap onto the stage, and everyone's eyes lit up, excited.

And the many Outer Sect disciples who were originally leaving sat down immediately after hearing Yan Xiao's voice, listening happily...
