Chapter 3122: My Wife and I Roleplay Daily Life 07

Su Wan Zhao finally didn't have to go 'goo goo goo' anymore, she shouldered her hoe and stood up, fiercely raised a middle finger at their backs, and muttered, 'Both of you are no good—one draws birds, the other casts curses. Is my Hanging Pot Peak a place for you two to flirt and quarrel?'

Liu Qingqing squatted on the ground, cheeks resting on her palms, gazing in the direction the two had left, her eyes full of longing, 'Ah...... Senior Brother Jin Chen and Senior Brother Chenshu's relationship is truly wonderful.'

Su Wan Zhao turned around, cupped her face in both hands, and rubbed it hard twice, saying in exasperation, 'Wake up, girl; they are natural-born nemeses.'

Liu Qingqing's face was deformed by her rubbing, and she mumbled, 'That's also pretty good...'

Indestructible Peak.

The body cultivators' training grounds have always been the most simple and hardcore place in the entire Carefree Immortal Sect, lacking flashy decorations and refined furnishings—only large expanses of bluestone reinforced with Spiritual Power, several rows of heavy stone locks and equipment, and in the corner, stacked-up wooden dummies half-repaired; those are the traces left by the body cultivators' relentless day-after-day hard training.

At this moment, Ha Ha brought the new initiate who wanted to become a body cultivator disciple, Zhu Baba, to familiarize himself with the grounds; Zhu Baba is a burly teenager, and at a glance he's a natural-born excellent candidate for body cultivation.

Ha Ha walked and gave him an introduction: 'This is the daily training grounds; further over is the sparring platform. Every morning at mao hour we gather, first warm up, then do basic physical training; in the afternoon we do paired practice and techniques...'

He was speaking when suddenly he heard a few senior brothers nearby muttering together.

'Have you heard? Senior Brother Chenshu wants to capture Senior Brother Jin Chen from Myriad Phenomena Peak to be a sparring partner.'

'Really? Will he agree? And what's this sparring about—isn't that just another fight?'

'If he doesn't agree, he'll have to anyway—when Senior Brother Chenshu takes action, there's nothing he can't accomplish.'

'Hehe, now there's a good show to watch.'

Zhu Baba was completely confused, tugged at Ha Ha's sleeve, and whispered, 'Senior brother, why is everyone so excited?'

Ha Ha stopped walking, glanced at the few senior brothers heatedly discussing, and decided to explain the issue in plain, easy-to-understand terms.

'Look,' Ha Ha said, pulling over a junior brother to demonstrate, 'Normal sparring is like this: I throw a punch, he returns a punch, both sides stop at the point of contact, gaining insight and progress from it—that's sparring.'

The junior brother pulled his punch, Ha Ha softened his block, and after two exchanges they stopped, both wearing smiles of friendly sparring.

'But if both throw punches with the determination to cripple the opponent, using every dirty trick under the sun, hoping to crush them, then it's not sparring—it's a fight.'

Zhu Baba suddenly understood, 'Ah, that's how it is!'

Ha Ha patted his shoulder and said solemnly, 'Funny enough, the sparring between Senior Brother Chenshu and Senior Brother Jin Chen usually falls into the latter category.'

Zhu Baba's eyes lit up, 'So does that mean we'll get to see them fight?'

Ha Ha fell silent for a moment, then gave a meaningful smile: 'Another good show to watch.'

Half an hour later.

Under the Martial Arts Platform, the body cultivator disciples had already formed a semi-circle, each finding their own spot to squat, lean, or stand, all gazing in unison toward the peak's mouth. Chenshu stood at the platform's center, his high ponytail flung back by the mountain wind, arms crossed, appearing not at all rushed.

However, half an hour passed and Jin Chen still hadn't arrived; after a while longer, he still hadn't come.

Chenshu stopped his warm-up, frowned, and began considering whether he should go to Myriad Phenomena Peak himself to fetch the person.

Just then, a line of figures appeared on the path to Indestructible Peak, filing up from the top of the stone steps.

Led by He Yun, the Myriad Phenomena Peak junior brothers and sisters filed up, each carrying something in their hands.

Some carried a consort's chair, some a small tea table, some held soft cushions and blankets, and others carried food boxes and tea kettles; they mightily traversed the Indestructible Peak training grounds, chose a shady spot at the edge, and set things up in an orderly manner.

The body cultivator disciples all fell silent for a moment, watching these people. He Yun spread out the blanket, others placed the consort's chair on top, put a footstool in front, piled the soft cushions on the back, erected a screen behind to block the wind, set the tea kettle on the side table, arranged the teacups in a row, and laid out the spiritual fruits in a floral pattern.

The screen was made of semi-transparent silk embroidered with landscapes, just enough to cover most of the consort's chair on all sides. Finally, He Yun draped a shawl over the chair's armrest, stepped back two steps to take a look, then moved forward to shift the fruit dish slightly to the right, nodded in satisfaction, and retreated to stand outside the screen.

The whole process was smooth and seamless, done in one fluid motion.

The Indestructible Peak body cultivator disciples stared agape, 'Whoa……'

Zhu Baba was even more dumbfounded, murmuring, 'Is this really the style of Myriad Phenomena Peak?'

And then, at that moment, Jin Chen arrived late in a leisurely manner, having changed into a white practice outfit, his usual long hair tied up with a hairpin, looking quite simple and pure—truly rare.

After He Yun finished setting everything up, he rose to his feet, nodded at Jin Chen, and said, 'Senior brother, everything's ready.'

Jin Chen gave a satisfied hum, walked to the consort's chair, and sat down leisurely.

He leaned back against the soft cushion, crossed his legs, picked up a cup of floral tea from the small table, blew on the heat, and took a slow sip.

Then he lifted his head, gazed at Chenshu in the center of the field, and gave a bright smile, 'How about we first sample some tea?'
