The two Utility Disciples, with swords hanging at their waists, arrived at Qingyun Peak, attracting a barrage of disdainful and scornful glances, but Qin Chu and Bai Yu didn't care.
When they reached the entrance of the Qingyun Peak Hall of Merit, Qin Chu and Bai Yu were stopped.
“This is the Merit Hall, not the Servant Hall; you’ve come to the wrong place!” A Disciple from Qingyun Peak blocked Qin Chu and Bai Yu.
“Does the Merit Hall have a rule about who can’t enter?” Before Qin Chu could speak, Bai Yu already said.
“The Merit Hall is where Qingyun Sect Disciples take on tasks, it’s not for Utility Disciples to come to. Remember, you are Utility Disciples!” Hearing Bai Yu talk back, the Qingyun Sect Disciple’s words were very impolite.
Qin Chu took out his Points Card and pushed it towards the face of the Qingyun Peak Outer Sect Disciple, “Don’t look for trouble when there’s none, get lost!”
“You’re courting death!” Being told to get lost by Qin Chu, the Qingyun Peak Outer Sect Disciple became angry and reached out to slap Qin Chu’s face.
Utility Disciples had no status in the Qingyun Sect; it was normal for official Disciples to hit them whenever they pleased.
With a quick reach and grab of his right hand, Qin Chu seized the Qingyun Peak Outer Sect Disciple’s wrist, then swung his right arm, throwing him to the ground. Afterward, he raised his foot and kicked him in the face, “I hate it when people lay hands on me, and I hate it even more when people try to hit my face.”
This scene stunned the Qingyun Peak Disciples outside the Qingyun Peak Hall of Merit; a Utility Disciple beating up an Outer Sect Disciple, was this Heaven-Defying?
“Everyone mind their own business, don’t randomly reach out. Whoever reaches out to me, I’ll break their arm!” Qin Chu said as he entered the Merit Hall.
“Qin Chu, are you so eager to court death now?” Lin Cang, who was preparing to take a task inside the Merit Hall, looked at Qin Chu with killing intent on his face. On Qingzhu Peak, his face had been stepped on by Qin Chu.
“I don’t know where you get the confidence to be so arrogant. Weren’t you like a grandson on Qingzhu Peak? Why don’t you challenge Yan Yi? Is it very impressive to yell at a Utility Disciple like me?” Looking at Lin Cang, Qin Chu’s face was full of disdain. He looked down on people like Lin Cang, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, lacking the character of a Martial Artist.
“What are you doing, what are you doing?” Hearing the argument, the Enforcement inside the Qingyun Peak Hall of Merit was displeased.
“Replying to Enforcement Sir, we are here to take on tasks, but this person is blocking the door, and that person is cursing. It’s too outrageous!” Qin Chu said.
The Enforcement of the Qingyun Peak Hall of Merit stood up and looked Qin Chu up and down. As for Bai Yu, he ignored him, because Qin Chu was the instigator.
“Do you know you are a Utility Disciple?” The Enforcement of the Merit Hall said.
“Enforcement Sir, you’re not wrong, but you haven’t said it completely. Utility Disciples are also Disciples, and they can also take on tasks.” Qin Chu once again took out his Points Card .
The Enforcement of the Merit Hall was silent for a moment, then looked towards the entrance of the Merit Hall, “Since you’ve come, come in!”
“Senior Brother Yu, they are two Disciples from Qingzhu Peak. The tasks over there have been almost cleared by the two of them, so Junior Brother recommended them to come here. Senior Brother Yu doesn’t need to feel it’s against the rules; they have already exchanged points for classics, and the Library Pavilion has approved it. Utility Disciples are also Sect Disciples, and they are not wrong on this point.” Han Law Enforcement said.
Enforcer Yu of Qingyun Peak smiled, “That’s right! Our Qingyun Sect cultivates Disciples based on ability, not identity, so we cannot discriminate. The two of you can take on tasks if you wish, but you must complete them, otherwise, double points will be deducted.”
Qin Chu and Bai Yu clasped their fists towards Enforcer Yu and Han Law Enforcement; since they were magnanimous, they deserved respect.
This situation also made Qin Chu understand that those who could be Enforcement indeed had some Realm.
Having received approval, Qin Chu and Bai Yu began to frantically clear tasks. On the task board, half of the Tier 3 tasks were cleared by Qin Chu and Bai Yu. The remaining tasks were all unique and difficult, like complex problems, not easy to do. Qin Chu and Bai Yu would not touch such tasks.
When this situation appeared, Enforcer Yu’s face showed confusion, “You two boys can’t act recklessly, you can’t monopolize the tasks.”
“Thank you, Enforcer Yu, for the reminder. If we fail to complete the tasks, we are willing to bear the consequences.” Qin Chu said.
As they were leaving, Han Law Enforcement clasped his fists towards Enforcer Yu, “These youngsters are not easy.”
“This Enforcement doesn’t know about other places, but within the Qingyun Peak Hall of Merit, they will not be targeted.” Enforcer Yu said to Han Law Enforcement, understanding Han Law Enforcement’s meaning.
Han Law Enforcement led Qin Chu and Bai Yu away from Qingyun Peak, “You two are really attracting hatred! It would be strange if they didn’t come after you. Within the Sect, everyone abides by the rules, but outside the Sect, there are no restrictions, do you understand?”
“Understood, can’t we just avoid those we can’t afford to provoke?” Qin Chu turned and glanced at Qingyun Peak, Battle Intent appearing in his eyes. Can’t avoid them? Let anyone who dares to come looking for trouble try; he would kill them directly!
Noticing Qin Chu’s subtle glance, Han Law Enforcement shook his head. He knew very well that Qin Chu wouldn't avoid them; some things just couldn't be said!
When they were about to part ways, Qin Chu borrowed a storage waist belt from Han Law Enforcement again, as there were many tasks and thus many task items.
Leaving Qingzhu Peak, Qin Chu and Bai Yu entered the Wildlands. The two still headed towards Miyun Mountain. Miyun Mountain had many high-level Yao Beasts, which Qingyun Sect Disciples rarely ventured into, so there were many medicinal herbs, and tasks were also easy to complete.
After walking for a while, Bai Yu looked at Qin Chu. Qin Chu patted Bai Yu’s shoulder, signaling him to continue on their way.
Bai Yu had noticed someone following them, but Qin Chu had actually discovered it earlier. The first to notice was Han Law Enforcement, which was why he said those words; Qin Chu discovered it after entering the mountainous area, as he grew up in the mountains and was very sensitive to certain things.
“There’s still some distance. There’s a large tree ahead. We’ll climb up and hide in a bit. Act according to my hand signals. Since they’ve already made their move, we’ll just fight them!” Qin Chu whispered to Bai Yu.
After advancing a hundred zhang, Qin Chu grabbed Bai Yu and threw him towards a large tree beside them. Then, using both hands and feet, he climbed up the tree and hid next to Bai Yu on a branch.
Not long after Qin Chu and Bai Yu had hidden themselves, someone appeared—it was Lin Cang and another Inner Sect Disciple.
Seeing the two, Bai Yu’s face showed tension. If it were just one person, he and Qin Chu could fight to the death, but two would be difficult to handle, as Inner Sect Disciples all had Tier 3 cultivation.
Upon reaching the base of the large tree, Lin Cang frowned, “Mu Ye, they were heading in this direction, why is there no movement now?”
“These two little pieces of trash won’t run far!” The man named Mu Ye said.
While Lin Cang and Mu Ye were talking, Qin Chu and Bai Yu communicated. Qin Chu pointed to the space between Lin Cang and Mu Ye, then pointed to his own chest and Mu Ye, and then his body plunged straight down from the tree, directly pouncing on Mu Ye.
Mu Ye felt the wind behind him and tried to turn around, but Qin Chu’s pouncing speed was too fast. He directly jumped onto Mu Ye’s back, his hands gripping his neck.
Meanwhile, Bai Yu jumped into the area between Lin Cang and Mu Ye. His task was to prevent Lin Cang from assisting Mu Ye.
