Chapter 73: Scolded

‘Upcoming Sect tournament?’ Yang Wei asked inwardly as he remained dazed.

Meanwhile, Lian Xinyue was dumbfounded that Elder Jing would suggest Yang Wei partner up with her.

“Elder Jing, don’t you think it’s too quick to decide?” Lian Xinyue asked.

Elder Jing shrugged her shoulders, “I merely said you two seem to make a good partner. Never did I say that I was going to make you two partners up for the tournament.”

Lian Xinyue was rendered speechless by Elder Jing’s quick response and now she made it seem like it was her that wanted to partner up with Yang Wei.

Turning her head around, Lian Xinyue sneaked a glance to see Yang Wei’s reaction but to her disbelief, he had no change in his emotion.

‘Hmph, am I that unpopular?’ Lian Xinyue cursed inwardly.

However, what she doesn’t know is that Yang Wei didn’t even know about the sect tournament so he was confused about this whole ordeal, to begin with.

It would be shocking if Yang Wei became happy about this news and thanked Elder Jing.

“Phew, seems like time has passed by so quickly.” Elder Jing suddenly said and continued.

“It’s time to bring the other disciples inside to take a rest for tomorrow.”

Afterward, Elder Jing started walking toward the entrance to call for Elder Pao Huang and the rest.

Yang Wei didn’t say anything further and followed Elder Jing behind. Lian Xinyue took a few moments before tidying up her clothes first and followed shortly after.

While walking, Yang Wei asked, “What do you mean by tomorrow, Elder Jing?”

“Tomorrow is most likely the date of the appearance of the Pagoda and the reason why everyone is really risking their lives to enter the mysterious realm.”

Yang Wei became dumbfounded to know there’s more reason for the people to enter this mysterious realm.

‘It wasn’t just for spiritual treasure or herbs but the Pagoda. Then why did that mysterious shadow keep informing me about the pagoda if it weren’t a secret at all.’ Yang Wei pondered inwardly as he couldn’t understand the reason behind it.

“What are you thinking about?”

While Yang Wei was busy trying to come up with a reason, Lian Xinyue suddenly asked him.

Yang Wei glanced at Lian Xinyue and shook his head slightly. “Nothing, I was just thinking what would happen when the Pagoda finally appears.”

There was no point telling her the truth since she probably has no idea either.

Lian Xinyue nodded her head in understanding before increasing her speed to catch up to Elder Jing.

“Elder Jing, what are we going to do once we invite them inside. After all, we had a feast while making them wait outside.” Lian Xinyue asked softly.

“What are we going to do? I’m just going out to inform them my pill refinement was complete and if they get any complaint, they can say it directly to my face.” Elder Jing smirked as she couldn’t be bothered with them if she didn’t promise the sect leader back then.

Sometime later, Elder Jing started smelling a sweet fragrance but it was a bit worse than the beggar chicken.

Stepping outside, Elder Jing saw the disciples cooking some meat and Elder Pao Huang had drools all over him as he chomped the piece of meat down to his throat.

The other disciples who weren’t in charge of cooking were busily fighting with each other and snatching the cooked meat where they even started tearing some of their clothes.

Of course, none of the disciples dared to snatch the cooked meat specifically for Elder Pao Huang as that would be asking for punishment.

“What the hell happened here when I left them?” Lian Xinyue exclaimed in shock as she recalled they were busy recovering their true qi but it seemed like they all went hunting after she went inside to meet up with Elder Jing.

Meanwhile, Elder Jing dashed toward Elder Pao Huang who nearly choked on the meat for the sudden appearance of Elder Jing.

“Cough, Elder Jing, cough, you finished refining your pills?” Elder Pao Huang coughed multiple times before asking Elder Jing.

However, Elder Jing held a solemn expression as she asked, “Elder Pao Huang, what’s the meaning of this?”

Elder Jing pointed her finger around the meat dishes and the magical beast corpse in the corner where it had been dissected.

Afterward, she pointed at the pale disciples who almost had their true qi exhausted.

Elder Pao Huang understood her meaning and cleared his throat before saying, “T-The disciples were all starving because of the aroma emitting from inside the cave so I suggested we go scouting and hunt for some magical beasts to cook food to fill our hunger.”

The disciples also stopped their movement as they hurriedly agreed with Elder Pao Huang that they decided to hunt for food.

Elder Jing nearly exploded in anger as she couldn’t expect the disciples from her sect to be so ridiculous, especially a sect elder that’s given them permission.

“Elder Pao Haung, did you forget the reason for this mysterious realm?” Elder Jing glared at Elder Pao Huang and asked him a simple question.

Elder Pao Huang shuddered and started trembling in fear when he realized what mistakes he committed when he recounted the days in here.

“I’m glad you haven’t gone senile since you recall that the Pagoda would most likely appear tomorrow.” Elder Jing yelled and continued, “If the Pagoda truly appears tomorrow then what are we going to do when these disciples are all exhausted of their true qi.”

Elder Pao Huang hurriedly knelt down with his head lowering to the ground as he said, “It is this elder’s fault for being negligent and causing the disciples to be ineligible for the fight tomorrow.”

The other disciples also followed Elder Pao Huang as they apologized for their rash action.

Yang Wei and Lian Xinyue were secretly relieved that it wasn’t them that committed a mistake and irritated Elder Jing.

Elder Jing glanced at the disciples and Elder Pao Huang before retrieving some pills and threw it towards them.

“Those are Qi Rejuvenation pills to help you recover your true qi faster.” Elder Jing said before entering back inside the cave again, leaving them alone to start their recovery.
