Chapter 173: Same parents, why such a big difference?

Chapter 173: 173: Same parents, why such a big difference?

Mu Bai expressed jealousy, "We are born from the same parents, why do you have it, and I don’t?"

"That’s just luck, nothing you can do about it!" Murong boasted.

Mu Bai: "Haha!" Does this guy even know how to spell "luck"?

"Great Aunt, teach me Cultivation, I can cultivate..." Murong grinned foolishly at Mu Qiuniang.

"Why would I teach you?" Mu Qiuniang sat down on a chair, and a cup of tea appeared out of nowhere in her hand, which she started drinking.

"Why not teach me?" Murong was surprised, he couldn’t understand at all. She clearly said she was his great aunt, so why not teach him? Aren’t relatives supposed to help each other?

"Why would I teach you?"

"Why don’t you teach me?" Murong was really stubborn with Mu Qiuniang, he had to figure out why she refused to teach him.

Initially, Mu Bai also didn’t understand why Mu Qiuniang was unwilling to teach her brother, but seeing them question each other back and forth, she began to think: why did Mu Qiuniang have to ask her brother why she should teach him?

If she were the great aunt, facing a completely useless relative child, would she be willing to teach him her skills just because he came asking?

Mu Bai thought that she probably wouldn’t be willing either.

Already unreliable, yet constantly causing trouble, if taught, what if he causes a catastrophe in the future? Whose responsibility would it be?

If she took him as a disciple, no one would want to teach a "disciple" who would only bring trouble, right? If accepting anyone, you’d at least want someone obedient, right? Suddenly, she remembered, didn’t the great aunt take in a disciple?

"Great Aunt, your disciple isn’t a Cultivation disciple, is he?" she asked in surprise.

Mu Qiuniang nodded.

Mu Bai became even more jealous, a stranger could become a disciple of the great aunt, why couldn’t she? Boo hoo hoo...

"Great Aunt has a disciple? Then take me as well, anyway, whether you take one or two, it’s the same..." Murong showed thick skin, insisting on being taken in.

"It’s not impossible to take you as a disciple, but..."

"But what?" Murong hurriedly said, "Great Aunt, rest assured, as long as you take me as a disciple, I’ll go east when you tell me to go east, and west when you tell me to go west."

Mu Qiuniang directly threw him a book of the Hidden Immortal Sect Rules: "Once you’ve memorized the edicts in it, I’ll take you as a disciple."

Well, regardless of anything, Murong was a descendant of the Mu family and had some Spirit Root. Mu Qiuniang wouldn’t just ignore him. The Hidden Immortal Sect Rules not only contain regulations about serving the master’s sect but also guidelines for conduct in life. As long as he is willing to abide by them, his previous bad habits could be mostly corrected.

If he’s unwilling, she has her ways to make him comply.

Mu Qiuniang also drew two paper figures with a brush, telling Murong to stay here alone until he memorizes the sect rules, and these two paper figures would take care of him.

Then, she took Mu Bai and the unconscious Mu Cheng away.

This time, Mu Cheng didn’t mind being left behind at all. His mind was full of thoughts about how amazing it would be when he cultivates in the future, able to soar into the sky, summon winds and rains, and turn stones into gold!

When Mu Cheng woke up, he found himself lying in a hotel room.

"Big cousin, you’re awake?"

Mu Bai, who was reading beside him, noticed he was awake and immediately came over.

"Why am I here?"

"Great Aunt said it wasn’t convenient for you to stay in the old house, so she sent you here. How do you feel? Is there anywhere you still feel uncomfortable?" Great Aunt mentioned that people who just had spirits driven out would feel particularly weak.

Just now, the Great Aunt placed a peace charm on him and made a pot of medicinal food for him before leaving, telling her to look after him.

"My head hurts a bit..." Mu Cheng frowned slightly, puzzled, "What happened to me?"

Mu Bai shrugged, looking innocent, "How would I know? You fainted inexplicably, maybe it was heatstroke... Great Aunt even cooked something for you, it’s still warm. Wait, I’ll get you a bowl."

Before the big cousin could speak, she quickly slipped away.

What a joke, what kind of person was the big cousin? Her level of lying couldn’t fool him, better not let his Fire Eye Crystal see through her, better leave quickly.

Was it just his imagination? Why did he feel his cousin seemed a bit guilty? Mu Cheng stared at someone’s back and wondered.

Mu Qiuniang hadn’t returned to her master’s sect in years, and now it was a peaceful era. The sect usually had the Sect Leader watching over things, so she didn’t need to intervene. As a result, she lazily lingered outside for "experiences."

Being an elder, who would dare disturb her recklessly?

Standing high looking over the vast sky, a thousand miles of clear breeze arrives.

With Mu Qiuniang descending on the flying sword in mid-air, a magnificent peak towering high in the sky appeared before her. It had overlapping mountain forms, a solid shape, accented by old pines and massive stones, with shifting mists, majestic yet bright and serene but mysterious at the same time.

Especially at this very moment, with the setting sun. The sky was high and clear, the skies in the west scattered with clouds like peaks and mountains, as beams of golden light pierced through them, descending to the earth. The peaks of clouds were all adorned with a splendid golden edge, at times flashing with a strange brilliance.

Those multicolored clouds were ingeniously crafted, mysteriously unpredictable. As a sea of clouds drifted past, the panoramic glow of dusk mirrored across the "Great Fortune Sea," utterly spectacular and utterly mesmerizing.

Treading on the sword, Mu Qiuniang, with her dress fluttering, resembled a celestial maiden descending to the world.

The young guard at the Hidden Immortal Sect’s gate was completely dazzled.

As Mu Qiuniang landed and handed over a small token, he finally snapped back to reality, turning to shout inside the sect, "Elder Aunt Qiu is back, Elder Aunt Qiu is back..."

"What?! Elder Aunt Qiu is back?! Where?! I want to see her..."

"Elder Aunt Qiu is amazing, I’ve always admired her, I wonder when I can become as powerful as her!"

"Don’t daydream, the Sect Leader said Elder Aunt Qiu is different from us, she’s destined to ascend!"

"Wow?! Really can ascend? I never even dreamed of it, can someone really ascend these days..."

...

The entire Hidden Immortal Sect suddenly became lively, as if birds returning to their nests, welcoming an eager flock.

Of course, those not qualified could only squeeze behind senior brothers and sisters, watching from afar.

While at both main paths, all the elders of the Hidden Immortal Sect and leaders of the major departments, except those handling matters outside, immediately rushed to the sect upon hearing the news.

What a joke, this was an elder aunt who had cultivated for hundreds of years, when the sect’s ancestors ascended, they stuffed her with a lot of good things. Moreover, she herself had significant achievements in Artifact Refining and Alchemy, just a sliver of what she let slip through her fingers was enough to fill their belts.
