Luo Zhen gave him nothing, which made Qin Chu feel like he had lost out. However, Bai Yu, Lin Zheng, and Er Pang were happy because Qin Chu was not leaving the Utility Disciple courtyard.
Returning to the Utility Disciple courtyard, Qin Chu went to the room where Bai Yu and the others lived. "I have completely offended the Main Peak. You all should be more careful when you go out. Those guys have no bottom line and will do anything."
Then Qin Chu placed the longswords he had taken from Lin Cang, Mu Ye, and Wu Cheng, as well as several storage waistbands, on the table. "You all can use these."
"Thank you, Boss!" Bai Yu, Lin Zheng, and Er Pang all nodded to Qin Chu.
"Er Pang, to be honest, among us, your Aptitude might be relatively low, but that doesn't matter. Diligence can compensate for clumsiness. As long as you work hard, you will definitely grow," Qin Chu reminded Er Pang before leaving. How to put it, Lin Zheng and others were demoted from Outer Sect Disciple, so their Aptitude was good. Bai Yu, like him, was a misunderstanding, arriving at the Utility Disciple Hall by chance, and his Aptitude definitely surpassed many people.
Er Pang bowed to Qin Chu. He knew his own situation, but he believed he could do it. Hadn't Qin Chu achieved success in Cultivating basic swordplay!
After arriving at the cliff, Qin Chu Cultivated swordplay for a while, then began to Cultivate Origin Qi. He was very much looking forward to the feeling of Origin Qi being released. He was currently at the Late Stage of the eighth level of the Condensing Origin Realm, and would soon be able to Cultivate to the ninth level. At that time, he would not be far from the third-tier True Origin Realm.
While Qin Chu was Cultivating, Lei Yin arrived at a pavilion behind the main hall of Qingzhu Peak.
"Why has Junior Sister Lei come knocking on my door? Qin Chu didn't act ruthlessly towards your Qianluo Peak's Disciple," Luo Zhen said, looking at Lei Yin.
"Senior Brother Luo, has Qin Chu comprehended the Sword Spirit Realm?" Lei Yin asked, looking at Luo Zhen.
"A few days ago, I got some good tea, Junior Sister. You should try it!" Luo Zhen took out a bucket of tea and began to brew it.
Lei Yin found a seat and sat down. "Senior Brother, don't change the subject. Mind and spirit as one, specifically attacking weaknesses and flaws—is that not the Sword Spirit Realm? The speed of basic swordplay isn't that fast either. Is it Senior Grandmaster Mo's Startling God Sword Art?"
"There are some things I don't want to discuss," Luo Zhen avoided the question.
"No wonder Junior Sister was blocked by Senior Brother the day she arrived. He indeed has the qualifications to be taken seriously. However, Senior Brother also needs to be careful. If Junior Sister can see the problem, then Su Shanhe and Zhang Ji can also see it," Lei Yin said, looking at Luo Zhen.
Hearing Lei Yin's words, two cold glints flashed in Luo Zhen's eyes. "I won't bother with some past minor issues, but not this time. If they dare to go even slightly overboard, I will not tolerate them."
"In these years, the Main Peak has indeed gone too far in suppressing the Six Peaks. It's just that everyone is unwilling to hurt the camaraderie among fellow Disciple. The recent conflict between the Main Peak and Qingzhu Peak is clearly an escalation," Lei Yin said.
"I know some things, and I don't plan to indulge them anymore! Junior Sister, you might not know, but some time ago, Su Shanhe actually sent law enforcement to arrest Qin Chu and throw him into the Main Peak's dungeon. We all know Qin Chu is a troublemaker, but he knows his limits and has never violated sect rules. Su Shanhe was completely abusing his authority. Now, not only is he acting erratically, but the Disciple of the Main Peak are the same. The cause of this conflict was a Disciple from the Main Peak arranging for his people to come to Qingzhu Peak to be the head of the Utility Disciple, which is too arrogant."
Lei Yin sighed. "If the people above weren't so arrogant and overbearing, how would the Disciple below dare to be so lawless? That Wu Cheng on the arena stage directly aimed to kill, didn't he? He just felt that the Main Peak was superior and that Qingyun Peak was no longer the Qingyun Peak of the past."
"Qingwang Ancient Ruins, have you arranged people on your side? On Qingzhu Peak's side, I have almost finished arrangements," Luo Zhen changed the subject.
"It's arranged. Liu Xue will lead the team, a total of four people. If it works, four people are enough; if it doesn't, then sending more is useless and only increases casualties," Lei Yin said.
"For Qingzhu Peak, I plan to let Qin Chu lead the team, and I've also selected a few helpers for him. Entering the Qingwang Ancient Ruins, it's up to them," Luo Zhen exhaled. Letting Qin Chu go to the Qingwang Ancient Ruins carried a great risk, but young people need to be tempered.
"Then Junior Sister will go talk to Qin Chu later and ask him to look out for the Qianluo Peak team," Lei Yin said.
Luo Zhen nodded. He also hoped Qin Chu could get some help.
When Lei Yin arrived at the cliff, Qin Chu was still sitting in meditation, Cultivating Origin Qi.
Hearing a knock on the door, Qin Chu stopped Cultivating and opened the door.
Seeing Lei Yin, Qin Chu was surprised. "Peak Master Lei... I just sparred with your Qianluo Peak's Disciple. You wouldn't come knocking on my door because of that, would you?"
"Why do you think I'm so petty? Is it not okay for me to come see you?" Lei Yin gave Qin Chu a disdainful look. She was puzzled; how did such a dull boy like Qin Chu comprehend the Sword Spirit Realm? One must know that Qingyun Sect had existed for countless years, and only two people had comprehended the Sword Spirit Realm, one of whom was the Founding Ancestral Master.
"That's great! I don't have tea, so I can only boil some plain water," Qin Chu said while lighting a fire.
"Qin Chu, should I thank you for showing mercy to the Qianluo Peak's Disciple?" Sitting on a wooden stool in front of the wooden house, Lei Yin asked Qin Chu, who was boiling water.
"Peak Master Lei, you don't need to say that. I went for the kill against the Main Peak's Disciple because their character was despicable, and they provoked me first. As for the Qianluo Peak's Disciple, that was just sparring; there's no talk of showing mercy!" Qin Chu said after lighting the fire and placing the kettle on it.
"Who exactly are you?" Lei Yin scrutinized Qin Chu. She felt that Qin Chu was not quite the same as what outsiders perceived.
Turning his head to look in the direction of the library, Qin Chu gave a bitter laugh. "Actually, I also really want to know who I am."
"Never mind then!" Lei Yin glared at Qin Chu. She thought Qin Chu didn't want to say, not knowing that Qin Chu himself wasn't clear about what was going on with him.
Then Lei Yin mentioned the Qianluo Peak's Disciple participating in the Qingwang Ancient Ruins, saying that Inner Sect Disciple Liu Xue would lead the team, and hoped they could look out for each other.
"Looking out for each other is fine, Peak Master Lei. You see, as a Utility Disciple, I'm really poor; I don't even have Medicinal Pill for self-defense, or armor or anything," Qin Chu agreed quickly, but his expression changed just as quickly, directly asking for benefits.
Lei Yin looked at Qin Chu, feeling a bit resigned. Not only was he strong, but he was also shamelessly asking for things.
Standing up, Lei Yin placed several Medicinal Pill bottles on the wooden stool beside her. "These are detoxification Medicinal Pill and healing Medicinal Pill. Calling you a little rascal definitely isn't wronging you."
Lei Yin left. She felt that if she stayed any longer, Qin Chu would extort her again. He was too shameless! To ask for benefits so righteously—Qin Chu was the first in Qingyun Sect. Other Disciple wouldn't even dare to speak loudly to her.
