We're celebrating. Why don't you join us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing and Shi Zhen hurriedly congratulated Senior Brother He upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second disciple of Divine Peak, He Han, smiled slightly, \"Thank you, junior brothers and sisters. It's just everyone fooling around.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the surroundings gradually quieted down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The several people from Divine Peak secretly glanced at Shi Zhen, then at Zhou Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What exactly is the relationship between you two now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's this, sneaking a peek while bathing and falling in love?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heart Mirror Points +5]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing watched as the \"So Dominant\" over Lu Yaoyao's head changed to \"So Flirtatious\" at a speed visible to the naked eye. He almost choked on his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heart Mirror Points +6]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the \"His Little Junior Brother\" over Shi Zhen's head also began to gradually change to \"Popular Junior Brother Zhou.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing was baffled,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister, which eye of yours sees me as popular?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These brother-protecting maniacs are about to swallow me alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heart Mirror Points +5]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another voice spoke. Zhou Qing looked at Li Daoxuan, who was smiling and inviting him but with eyes saying, \"Try it if you dare.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remark \"Dog that can't change its ways,\" over Li Daoxuan's head, gradually changed to \"Persistent Dog.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing felt exhausted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why am I again a persistent dog?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't even know you were here, just happened to be next door by coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It sounds like I specifically came to cling to your junior sister. As long as he doesn't bother me, I'll be thanking my lucky stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the entire private room fall into an awkward silence, Zhou Qing suddenly slapped his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh no, I almost forgot something important. I was wondering why Third Brother left in a hurry earlier. Senior Sister Shi, senior brothers, you continue eating. I have an errand to run, let's get together another day!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, Zhou Qing quickly left with an apologetic look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone exchanged glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides Shi Zhen and Lu Yaoyao, the other six men nodded in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not bad, he knows his place!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving Jade Dining Hall, Zhou Qing hurried home. Maybe it was just psychological, but he felt as if someone was secretly following him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Fourth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Yan Xiaohu suddenly jumped down from a tree nearby, scaring Zhou Qing, who was already like a startled bird, keening his reflexes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Third Brother, can't you behave seriously for once!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing said, his hand clutching a nearby tree with lingering fear as he saw the golden words above Yan Xiaohu's head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xiaohu chuckled and put his arm around Zhou Qing's shoulder, \"I'm just messing with you. You look all sneaky, did you do something guilty? Don't lie to me, I saw Senior Sister Shi when I was coming down the mountain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Yan Xiaohu's words, Zhou Qing was even more convinced that Jade Dining Hall earlier definitely wasn't his doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This troublesome fellow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After calming down, Zhou Qing said, \"I didn't do anything guilty. What's sneaky? Senior Sister Shi just invited me to a meal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xiaohu gave an \"oh\" and didn't think much of it again. Soon, he remembered something and dragged Zhou Qing to see the junk he had collected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the [Five Sects Treasure Exchange Gathering] is starting the day after tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, why do you keep looking down?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm seeing if it's up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would it be up without reason? Are there pretty junior sisters nearby?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother, is my face red?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not red, just a pale face.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two returned to Little Spirit Peak together. Zhou Qing didn't feel anything strange, seems like he was overthinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He should have known not to leave so quickly. At least he should have packed some food back for Third Brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother, can you check if this wine is poisonous?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing took out two bowls of wine, the aroma immediately attracting Yan Xiaohu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a seasoned drunkard, Yan Xiaohu quickly came over, took a deep breath, and his eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good wine. It's really good wine! Where did you get this from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed the bowl and immediately drank it down in one gulp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chill from the wine spread, making him shiver involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he excitedly shouted \"Good!\" three times in a row.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next was the second bowl that Shi Zhen had drunk from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Zhou Qing could react, Yan Xiaohu grabbed Zhou Qing with eager eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Fourth, what kind of wine is this? I feel like I'm riding an ice dragon, soaring freely in a frosty landscape, but it seems I can't drink too much...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished, his whole body suddenly stiffened, and frost appeared all over his body at a speed visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Zhou Qing's horrified gaze, he turned straight into a popsicle, falling over stiffly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Third Brother!\" Zhou Qing quickly caught him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he falls, he'd break into pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the cold from his hands, Zhou Qing hurriedly carried the frozen Third Brother on his shoulder, using sword control to fly towards Little Spirit Peak...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Achoo, achoo—\" In the room, Yan Xiaohu was clutching a blanket, sneezing repeatedly, and occasionally slurping back the snot that had dripped to his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his eyes were full of nostalgia, savoring the taste in his mouth repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of wine made him drink like this?\" Not far away, Mo Xingjian asked with a frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing's face was embarrassed, scratching his head awkwardly as he lied, \"I don't know either, just picked it up by the roadside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Picked it up? You two really are something, one daring to pick up, the other daring to drink!\" Mo Xingjian was completely speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did he end up with such two gems?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he suddenly missed the eldest and the second girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You two~~\" Mo Xingjian gritted his teeth, pointing at one, then the other, before flicking his sleeve angrily and leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every single day, can't you just behave?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think your master's life is too long, and if you don't cause some trouble, you get itchy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the master leave, Yan Xiaohu sniffled and quickly ran off the bed to ask, \"Old Fourth, did you really pick up the wine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did you pick it up? Take me there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the foot of the mountain, only those two bowls, no point in thinking about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After drinking that wine, I realized all these years I've been drinking rubbish.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flame Dragon City is the largest city at the foot of Taiqing Sect, always bustling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the Five Sects Treasure Exchange Gathering being held here increased the city's flow of people dramatically in a short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu passed through the somewhat dim city gate tunnel, the deafening noise struck them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everywhere they looked, people were bustling about, making the main street completely packed, with various shouts rising and falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall and majestic buildings in the distance exuded a special grandeur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People wearing different sect attires were bustling around, various items were bizarre, eye-opening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were haggling intensely with stall owners, trying to exchange the least spirit stones for the most precious items; others squatted down, studying the authenticity and value of items carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouting, bargaining, and arguing sounds intertwined, making this Treasure Exchange Gathering even more lively.\u003C\u002Fp>",1303,"2026-06-09T06:33:57.974Z",1,"novelbin.me","dba6e10450e89c8c06708d4488225da904a69866f830ba1aa49efef98766cd78","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-22","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-20",1176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-cover.jpg"]
