Chapter 90: Jiang Xun Had Not Yet Grown Old at That Time

~8 min read 1,439 words

Five hundred and three years ago, at that time, Jiang Xun had not yet grown old, and his cultivation was only at the Golden Core Mid-Stage Peak.

"Senior Brother!"

Tu Qing ran into Jiang Xun's room with a happy face, not even knocking on the door; at this moment, Tu Qing was as pure as a little rabbit, with no air of a sect leader at all.

"What is it, you're so happy?"

The black-haired, ponytail-wearing youth sat by the window, holding a folding fan, draped in white robes, and holding a teacup; he turned his head to look at Tu Qing, a beautiful smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

At that time, Jiang Xun was handsome and graceful, his eyes like bright stars, his face like powdered jade.

A few stray hairs hung down beside his fair, jade-like cheeks. His sword-like eyebrows slanted into his temples, and his long, deep eyes seemed to hide the starry sky, with a faint, unrestrained, and carefree air flowing through his dark gaze.

"Master agreed! She is letting me, you, and Senior Sister Ming Ning take a few Outer Sect Disciples down the mountain to recruit new disciples!"

Tu Qing sat beside Jiang Xun and dove into his arms, her eyes overflowing with affection as she looked at him.

"Is that so? When?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xun set down his teacup and couldn't help but pinch Tu Qing's small, round face.

"Tomorrow! We'll go pick a few disciples today, then set off early tomorrow morning. We'll take an airship from Tianji City to Shuiyun City, two thousand miles away. It's great, I can finally go out and play! I was about to die of boredom!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go pick the disciples together," Jiang Xun nodded and smiled.

"Senior Sister Ming Ning already went; she said she was going to Yangyuan Peak to pick a few male disciples," Tu Qing said as she stood up.

"She really is... she can never be without men," Jiang Xun was speechless upon hearing this and smiled helplessly: "I'm afraid those disciples won't be coming back."

"Uh..." Tu Qing was also stunned when she heard this; thinking of Senior Sister Ming Ning's usual behavior, she couldn't help but feel a chill: "It shouldn't be that bad... we're just going to recruit some disciples, it's only six or seven days."

"That just means seven male disciples are going to lose their lives," Jiang Xun shrugged.

"One a day? That's, that's too outrageous," Tu Qing's eyes widened: "Can Senior Sister handle that..."

"Who told you to gossip about me?"

At this moment, a voice as cold as ice came from the doorway.

The two looked up to see Ming Ning dressed in black, her hair tied in a high ponytail, making her look very tall.

Her fair neck was exposed down to her collarbone, a curve so alluring it made one want to take a bite of her neck.

"Senior Sister, I was wrong!" Seeing that it was Ming Ning, Tu Qing hurriedly prostrated herself and shouted.

Seeing Tu Qing's comical appearance, Ming Ning couldn't help but smile: "If you have the ability, you should take a few along too; they're good for relieving boredom on the road."

"I won't, I have Senior Brother," Tu Qing hurriedly stood up upon hearing this and grabbed Jiang Xun's arm.

"Exactly, Senior Sister, don't corrupt Tu Qing," Jiang Xun also hugged Tu Qing and smiled.

"This is the Lingerie-Sect, what are you two doing playing at pure love here?" Ming Ning rolled her eyes at them and then said: "I've already selected the disciples, seven male Outer Sect Disciples. Keep a close eye on them on the road, don't let them run off."

"Alright, understood," Jiang Xun nodded.

He had experience with going down the mountain to recruit disciples.

Because he possessed a Natural Charm Bone, going down the mountain was essentially him going to seduce women; many women came specifically for Jiang Xun's face.

As for Ming Ning, she went down to pick out good-looking Cauldrons for herself; after all, the more handsome the man, the more invigorating it was to drain them.

Tu Qing, however, was going down the mountain for the first time, which was why she was so excited.

"We are using the cover identity of Kuoyu Pavilion disciples this time; I will have the identity tokens ready tomorrow."

Ming Ning said, then turned and left.

The next day.

The three gathered the disciples and headed toward Tianji City.

All participating disciples this time had to be at the Foundation Establishment stage or higher.

After all, going down the mountain this time was to show off their power in front of others; only Foundation Establishment disciples could perform Sword Flight and attract more people to join the Lingerie-Sect.

Of course, the Lingerie-Sect had a notorious reputation for harvesting, so they needed the cover identity of Kuoyu Pavilion.

The group of ten boarded an airship in Tianji City to travel to Shuiyun City.

It took two and a half days for the airship to travel from Tianji City to Shuiyun City.

Two days to recruit disciples, and two and a half days to return.

Exactly seven days.

After boarding the airship, Ming Ning immediately called a disciple into her room.

This made all the other disciples incredibly envious.

They all hoped that Tu Qing would choose them.

But seeing how Tu Qing and Jiang Xun were acting so lovey-dovey, they naturally knew there was no hope.

Two and a half days later, three corpses were tossed off the airship by Jiang Xun.

"Senior Sister Ming Ning is really that fierce..." After getting off the airship and seeing that three disciples were missing, Tu Qing looked at Jiang Xun in shock and whispered.

Looking at Ming Ning, her face was flushed, and she looked extremely satisfied.

"Indeed," Jiang Xun nodded and smiled helplessly.

The remaining four disciples noticed the missing people and searched everywhere, thinking they had gotten lost.

As it turned out, after searching for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, everyone had disembarked without seeing those three disciples.

"They probably didn't want to stay in the Lingerie-Sect, so they took advantage of the chaos and left," Ming Ning finally spoke: "If you want to leave, we won't stop you."

"How could you say that, Senior Sister? The Lingerie-Sect is so wonderful, how could we bear to leave!"

A male disciple hurriedly said; he hadn't received Ming Ning's favor yet, so how could he bear to leave?

"If you're going to leave, do it quickly, don't waste time."

Jiang Xun also looked at the group and said.

"Yes!"

The four disciples nodded hurriedly and followed behind Jiang Xun and the others.

To say nothing else of this group, their faces alone attracted the gazes of many people.

Those four disciples were not bad-looking, but with Jiang Xun present, everyone else was downgraded.

The women on both sides, whether unmarried or married, all looked at Jiang Xun with infatuated expressions, and some women even rushed straight at him.

If not for Tu Qing blocking them, Jiang Xun would likely have already been pinned to the ground and submerged by women.

Other men were also attracted by the appearance and figures of Tu Qing and Ming Ning, but seeing the four male disciples surrounding Ming Ning like bodyguards, and seeing the skill with which Tu Qing blocked those women, no one dared to step forward to strike up a conversation.

After all, they were all ordinary people; to them, Tu Qing and Ming Ning were absolutely fairies.

"Make way, make way!"

Just as the crowd was swooning, an army ran over from not far away, and the man leading them on horseback held a blade and shouted, driving the pedestrians in the middle of the road to the sides, before stopping in front of Jiang Xun and the others.

He jumped off his horse and cupped his hands in a salute: "May I ask if you are the immortal masters from Kuoyu Pavilion?"

"Indeed." Jiang Xun opened his folding fan with one hand and waved it lightly in front of his chest.

His hair fluttered in the wind, drawing screams from many women.

"I am Zhang Wu, the City Defense General of Shuiyun City. The City Lord has ordered me to welcome the immortal masters. Please follow me to the City Lord Mansion; the City Lord has already prepared a banquet and is just waiting for you all to arrive."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wu immediately knelt on one knee.
