Chapter 107 - 107 47 The Majesty of the Leader_3

107: Chapter 47: The Majesty of the Leader_3 107: Chapter 47: The Majesty of the Leader_3 Li Ping’an’s mouth twitched lightly.

Elder Yansheng continued, “If you need help creating some alone time, just give me a sign.”

Three dark lines crept across Li Ping’an’s forehead.

Elder Yansheng tilted his head back slightly, his old eyes filled with helplessness.

He regretted drinking Dazhi Uncle-Master’s wine…

But now that he had agreed to the task, it had to be done.

Elder Yansheng cleared his throat and said in a low voice, “There are a few seaside houses in the town by the East Sea, if you two want to go, just let me know in advance and I’ll arrange it for you.”

Li Ping’an raised his hand to cover his face, “Elder, this is…”

“Ahem, that’s all I had to say.”

After finishing his words, Elder Yansheng felt relieved and slowly stood up:

“We will arrive at our destination in half an hour, and you, as the team leader, should rally everyone’s spirits by then.”

“I understand,” Li Ping’an said listlessly, then turned his head to look at Ningning Mu, who was chatting and laughing with a few female disciples over there.

The sun shone brightly, and her smile was just as radiant.

But…

The immortal’s path is long and winding, there’s no need to hurry.

When the moment of tenderness comes, the mature fruits will fall from the stem.

Li Ping’an steadied his Dao heart, straightened his Daoist robe, stood up, and walked a few steps forward with his hands behind his back, saying loudly:

“Everyone, let’s discuss the matters of our training.”

The disciples immediately gathered around, and several elders also emerged from the cabin, looking over here with smiling faces.

Li Ping’an said with a smile, “Let me briefly say a few words.”

The expressions of the elders changed instantly, one of them felt weak in the knees, sweat beading on his forehead, and he was ready to turn back and hide in the cabin.

But Li Ping’an simply said:

“The sect appointed me as the team leader, but I am not up to the task.

In terms of cultivation and abilities, my senior brothers and sisters far surpass me.

The only noteworthy skill I have is a bit of Artifact Refining knowledge.”

“For anything else, you can ask Brother Gu.”

“When we reach the gathering place for disciples of the six sects, don’t point me out as the team leader.

A Void Refinement Realm disciple like myself standing out might become the subject of ridicule and bring shame to our Wanyun Sect.”

A disciple laughed, “That would be because they have no eye for talent, not knowing Li Junior Brother’s prowess!”

—Given his cultivation level and time of entry, the title ‘Junior Brother’ was indeed appropriate.

“Well,” Li Ping’an waved his hand, “there is no need for us to risk our lives in this training, let’s save some Spirit Stones for the sect to avoid being penalized for our monthly contributions.”

The disciples smiled at one another.

Li Ping’an bowed his hands and said, “Brother Gu, please come over.

Any further delay and we’ll arrive at our destination.”

Gu Qingcheng scratched the tip of his nose, and at this moment, he didn’t shy away from the stage, stepping up to Li Ping’an and said with a bitter smile, “Seems like being the deputy leader is all about doing the grunt work.

I really shouldn’t have sought you out for a chat yesterday!”

“The capable ones do more work, please go ahead.”

Li Ping’an stepped back a few steps with a smile, standing next to Ningning Mu.

Both exchanged a look and sighed in relief.

Li Ping’an felt the weight off his shoulders;

Ningning Mu was worried that Elder Brother Ping’an might attract too much attention.

Gu Qingcheng had already received the specific rules for the six-sect training from the elders, and began to divide the disciples into teams.

If five people made a group, the thirty-eight disciples would leave three people out.

After discussing, they decided to form six five-person teams and two four-person teams.

The five-person teams would be the main force, while the four-person teams would focus on participating.

Li Ping’an and Ningning Mu, with their apparent lower level of cultivation, volunteered to join the teams made to fill numbers;

Yu Yingshu, who was also lower in cultivation and joined the sect around the same time, cheerfully joined, apologizing to Li Ping’an with a hand bow.

—Two years ago, during the sect competition, he had expressed his desire to get to know Li Ping’an, but disappeared without a trace after the competition.

Gu Qingcheng, as the deputy team leader, proved quite responsible.

He arranged his fellow members well, voluntarily giving up the chance to stand out and joined the fill-in four-person team with Li Ping’an, Ningning Mu, and Yu Yingshu, forming a peculiar combination with one Brighten Light, two Void Refinement, and one Merge True cultivator.

Just as the Wanyun Sect finished dividing teams, a melodious horn sounded from the sky.

Elder Yansheng casually dispersed the clouds in front, revealing an island surrounded by immortal light in the middle of the sea right before the disciples’ eyes.

Before the Wanyun Sect’s cloud ship could descend, a cloud ship several times larger lurched down from the high sky, bearing the flag of the Sea Watch Sect and holding a commanding position above them.

Gu Qingcheng frowned and said, “Are they starting to pick a fight already?”

“It could be a case of courtesy before force,” said Li Ping’an as he bumped Gu Qingcheng with his shoulder, “Deputy, prepare yourself.

The one leading them is a young disciple; we should also send a young disciple to deal with him.”

“No way!”

Gu Qingcheng frowned and argued, “You are the leader, I am the deputy.

Shouldn’t you be the one to go?”

Li Ping’an argued righteously, “I am the leader, you are the deputy.

Shouldn’t you follow orders?”

“I!”

Gu Qingcheng’s handsome face trembled slightly.

He turned his head to take in a breath of Spiritual Energy and visualized the ‘Artifact Spirit Explosion’ diagram in his heart sea, instantly revealing a ‘happy’ smile.

Gu Qingcheng forced out the words through clenched teeth:

“Li Brother, once I figure out how to counter your Spirit Explosion Technique’s secret technique, I shall seek proper guidance from you!”

Laughter from a few disciples followed from behind.

Li Ping’an smiled leisurely, fully stimulating the Hidden Dust Technique, and retreated to the back of the group of disciples.
