~7 min read 1,240 words

Jin Chen returned to the shade, sat down again on the imperial concubine's chair, picked up the cup of flower tea that hadn't cooled yet, and drank it leisurely, not forgetting to wave at Chenshu on the dais: "Senior Brother, come over and have a cup of tea too."

Chenshu walked down from the dais and sat in the chair beside him. He Yun, being very perceptive, also poured a cup of tea for Chenshu and presented it with both hands.

Jin Chen glanced around the arranged little world, nodded satisfiedly, "These decorations don't need to be taken down; who knows, I might still be dragged over by my senior brother for training later."

After saying that, he turned to look at Ha Ha standing aside, "By the way, could you help me prepare a room too? Preferably close to Chenshu Senior Brother's courtyard, the kind where you can just walk around the corner and get in. Then move all these into the room and arrange them; if you don't know how to arrange, you can ask He Yun for help—he has experience."

He Yun earnestly instructed, "Our senior brother has very high standards."

At the edge of the dais, a formation light suddenly flared up; Ye Xiaoman walked out from within, holding a stack of talisman scrolls, looking around, seeing how lively this side was, she happily walked toward Jin Chen.

She passed by the Indestructible Peak disciples who had finished watching the excitement and were preparing to train, and casually asked, "Junior brothers, junior brothers, what are you up to today, Indestructible Peak?"

The Indestructible Peak disciple's expression was very complicated, a subtle reply: "Senior Sister Ye, Jin Chen Senior Brother and Chenshu Senior Brother are sparring, but they exchanged fewer than fifty moves on the dais and hugged three times."

Ye Xiaoman: "?" What the heck?

She was extremely shocked, disbelievingly touching her own ears, she quickly ran up to Jin Chen, pointed forward, assumed a defensive stance, and shouted loudly, "Hai!"

"No matter what you are, get off Chen'er's body at once!"

Jin Chen was startled by her shout and spat out a mouthful of tea; Ye Xiaoman skillfully sidestepped, changed angle and continued her stance, her finger drawing a sigil in the air while she murmured incantations as if warding off evil.

Jin Chen pulled Chenshu over beside him, pointed at him and said to Ye Xiaoman, "Look, it's all your fault—you used to be so fierce with me, now even Xiaoman thinks I've been possessed."

Chenshu moved his teacup away from the direction Jin Chen was pulling, lest he spill it: "Each to their own."

Ye Xiaoman clicked her tongue twice, dropped the act, grabbed a cup, poured tea and drank it all in one go, then let out a long sigh.

Chenshu asked her, "What's the matter?"

Ye Xiaoman then remembered, rummaged in her sleeve, after a while finally produced two talisman scrolls and handed them to the two, saying, "The Sect Leader caught us to do hard labor; the lesson schedule for our nine has been issued, and she asked me to deliver it. You can look at it yourselves—I can't make sense of that timetable, it's a mess."

Jin Chen took the talisman scroll, glanced at it briefly, then folded it back up.

Ye Xiaoman sat down beside him, "By the way, among the new disciples there's someone particularly interesting—the one who stood in the corner that day, timid and tearful."

Yun Xiaoqiao?

"Exactly, that's him." Ye Xiaoman put down her teacup, "That kid is quite interesting. He cried when assigned to the new dormitory, cried when given new clothes, and heard that his talent is enough to join the Myriad Phenomena Peak, and he cried too."

She said this, gave Jin Chen a teasing look, hehe-laughed and said, "I heard that kid was awestruck by you on the Immortal Cloud Platform that day, his talent happening to suit the law path, so he's been determined to join the Myriad Phenomena Peak in three months."

He Yun heard this, poked his head out from behind Jin Chen, eyes shining, even happier than Jin Chen himself: "Really? That's great!"

Ye Xiaoman hehehe-laughed, "Yeah, He Yun Junior Brother, your crew serving Jin Chen is about to get bigger!"

After hearing Ye Xiaoman's words, Chenshu slightly narrowed his eyes, reached out and tugged at Jin Chen's long hair hanging behind his shoulder.

Jin Chen winced in pain, turned and glared at him: "What are you doing?"

"You're too showy." Chenshu released his grip, and that strand of hair slipped from between his fingers.

Jin Chen leaned in, grinning mischievously, "Are you afraid I'll be snatched away by another junior brother?"

Chenshu glanced at him, didn't respond, and placed his hand back on his knee.

——

The three-month instruction, taught by the senior disciples personally transmitted from the nine peaks, will commence at the Question Dao Academy.

This has always been the rule of the Carefree Immortal Sect: new disciples are not immediately assigned to the various peaks, but first spend three months receiving foundation-building instruction at the Question Dao Academy, with the nine peaks' personally transmitted disciples taking turns teaching; after laying a solid foundation, each peak's master then selects disciples based on their talent and willingness. These three months are both a study period and an evaluation period.

The first day's schedule features the body cultivation senior brother Chenshu, the law cultivation senior brother Jin Chen, and the artifact cultivation senior brother Zhao Tiezhu.

Jin Chen lazily made his way to the Question Dao Academy, seeing Zhao Tiezhu squatting in the courtyard, a row of newly made training puppets laid out before him; he went through them one by one, braiding their hair, after finishing one he held the puppet's head, turned it left and right, nodded in satisfaction, then reached for the next.

Jin Chen leaned on the railing, gazing thoughtfully at this scene in the courtyard.

Zhao Tiezhu felt a scorching gaze, stopped his work, lifted his head and met Jin Chen's eyes, "Chen'er? Do you also want me to braid your hair?"

Jin Chen shook his head, straightened up, glanced again at the puppets, as if suddenly enlightened, he waved at Zhao Tiezhu, "Just wait a moment."

Then he turned around and ran out.

Jin Chen ran to a deserted corner, reached out, and pinched the small point of light that was fluctuating around his body.

"11, I've come up with a good idea—quickly post the mission."

System 11, upon hearing Jin Chen's proposal, became very excited, making the bitter rival endure disgust to braid his hair and such—it felt extremely humiliating!

11 actively posted the mission and even assessed it at a high price of 180 points.

"Jin Chen Senior Brother..."

The sweeping disciple looked at him with a troubled expression, "Senior Brother, I need to sweep this area by the gate; would you… perhaps go elsewhere to enjoy your solitude?"

Jin Chen: "……" He awkwardly pressed his lips together.

Seeing this, the sweeping disciple thought he was unhappy, immediately panicked, hating to see such a beautiful face show an unhappy expression—it would be a waste. So he hurriedly changed his address: "No no no, it's fine if you stay, I can come sweep this afternoon! You can stand here as long as you like."

"No need." Jin Chen, with a strained face, stepped aside, "You do your sweeping."
