(BACK TO THE PAST):The cold winds blew by as the sunlight was blocked by the misty clouds. The arrival of spring marked the budding of new leaves as the birds flew high in the air despite the cold temperature.
Even with the arrival of the Spring, here the snow was everywhere an eye can see. A gigantic Ice wall spanning a few hundred kilometres entered sight.
Beyond the wall were numerous buildings with different designs and shapes. Houses, cultivation practice grounds, dining halls, gardens, it was like a grand city.
Moving in was another larger, st.u.r.dier and mysterious Ice Wall with mysterious inscriptions.
Behind this wall was a grand sight to behold. Majestic buildings are everywhere as a feeling of grandness was thick in the air.
The temperature was very low. Yet, there was no ice on the ground nor the walls. It was as if they were commanded to never freeze on the earth and the buildings.
This is undoubtedly the Inner and core area of the Sect. A place where the true elites reside!
The disciples walking in the Outer Section saw a flying treasure pa.s.s by. They looked at each other and didn"t even bother to react. Maintaining the same icy cold temperament, they headed to their cultivation abode.
The disciples knew that anyone who entered without permission could never get out of the sect. One of the Elders should have already gone to investigate it. The might of a Sect is no joke!
What they didn"t know was the said Elder saw the flying treasure and immediately recognised it and didn"t dare to even approach it. The person riding it was a true legend!
.... ...... ....... ........
In an ancient majestic pavilion, an Ice cold voice devoid of any emotion resounded in the air. It was like a Royal command, filled with a sense of aloofness and arrogance.
The silhouettes of a few people could be seen standing in front of a seated woman.
Their faces were rigid but their eyes held respect and reverence. The young men and women didn"t dare to look into her eyes but stood like puppets.
The Ice Cold Woman seemed to be in her 40s. With a slight frown between her delicate yet elegant light blue eyebrows, she spoke to the young people standing before her. She exuded bone-chilling coldness and held an air of mystery.
All of a sudden, her expression flickered as a trace of surprise and joy could be seen on her face.
As she got up, all the disciples turned their heads as a flying vessel approached the pavilion and landed.
An Old Man who looked more dest.i.tute than a poor beggar and a young man who felt more charming than a royal prince. The contrasting duo with their clas.h.i.+ng appearances somehow seems to have a single thing in common which no one could point out.
Soon, their faces and bodies were visible to the people in the pavilion. The Old Man gave an elusive feeling like he is full of mysteries but also fully transparent. It is completely beyond what they could fathom.
The Young Man, on the other hand, gave off a feeling of ....nothing and everything. In particular, he didn"t just give off one feeling, whatever they looked for, they found the feeling coming from him. Be it mysteriousness, calmness, arrogance.
He was like the Origin to these feelings themselves. His cultivation was apparent to every single individual present-Earth Realm eighth sub realm. But they all had a slight itch in their minds that not everything they see is the truth.
The Ice Cold Woman got over her shock and went over. Seeing her rus.h.i.+ng forward, the disciples followed suit.
When the Woman appeared in front of the Old Man, the iciness on her face faded a little as she said softly "You are here, Big Brother."
The Old Man laughed heartily "Little Sister, you should learn to smile more."
The Woman lightly nodded her head. Though she didn"t act like a weak kitten, to the disciples who always saw her Arrogant and Aloof disposition, it was still shocking to see her accept someone"s words!
Then the Woman s.h.i.+fted her gaze to the Lazy Young Man behind the Old Man. He was three steps behind the Old Man and only walked forward when she looked at him.
The disciples also looked at him with curiosity.
*Whoosh*
The mask vanished as everyone was greeted by an OtherWorldly Handsome face. The first thing that caught their attention was his bright sky blue pupils seemed to engulf their minds. Then came his utopian silver hair which gave them a dreamy feel. His face seemed to be chiseled by the G.o.ds themselves to the zenith of perfection.
His body seemed to be a miracle, it was the best one could ask for.
The female disciples felt something blocking their throat as their ice-cold faces showed difficulties in breathing. The male disciples were initially shocked which then followed by various emotions-envy, rage, defeat.
The Ice Cold Woman was also stunned by the display of his handsomeness. But she quickly snapped out of it and reverted back to her previous frosty expression. Yet, she seemed to avoid his eyes.
Sheng Tian spoke calmly the next moment "Sect Master, I am Sheng Tian.Thank you for everything in advance." He signalled to the Old Man.
The female disciples were pulled out of their illusions by his words when they heard his voice. It was calm, collective, full of confidence, had a hint of pride.
The Ice Cold Woman—the Sect Master turned her cold gaze at the Old Man. The Old Man glared at Sheng Tian in slight annoyance and said coolly "Little Sister, this brat is good for nothing. So, I brought him to learn a thing or two so that he won"t die drowning in his jug. Just give him two loaves of bread and let him be a bathroom cleaner. I have faith in his abilities."
Everyone was shocked by his words. Sheng Tian"s lips twitched as he glared at the perverted old man and spoke in refusal "Brought my a.s.s! Didn"t you just catch my legs and threatened to die by being ra.ped a gang of apes in front of me if I didn"t agree? If it wasn"t for the fact that I couldn"t bear to see your old a.s.s being violated by a bunch of apes, I would have never listened to you!
And you want me to do some odd jobs? Hmph! If my talent is rated as a genius level, then everyone will become s.h.i.+t in comparison!"
Including the Sect Master, every disciple opened their mouths as they wondered just how could a disciple say such words to someone who called their Sect Master as "little sister".
Threatened to show you a show of him being raped by a group of apes? Wasn"t it a bit too extreme? he surely doesn"t have such....interests, right? And with his Old age, how can he be so active? He must be an extremely gentle kind, Old Man, not a h.o.r.n.y Old geezer, no?
The male disciples gaze towards the Old Man turned a little queer while the female disciples" eyes glanced at his body from top to tie multiple times to probably find his weirdness.
The Sect Master, Bing Ying thought her Elder brother would kill him on the spot or torture him for disrespect.
Unexpectedly, he didn"t do either. He turned around and gave a kick at Sheng Tian"s back and yelled "You brat! how can you be so shameless making up lies from thin air?"
Sheng Tian stumbled forward and covered his b.u.m. He glared at the Old Man with a wronged expression"The f*cking shamelessness you are talking about! Aren"t you the one who lied first? If it weren"t for the fact that I am a kind person who is compa.s.sionate to even the worst of pigs, I would have burned off your old beard and pulled off your moustache.
And yet you shamelessly take advantage of the fact that you are born before me and kick me. You shameless Old Geezer!"
Everyone who saw Sheng Tian felt that he was telling the truth. Even the Sect Master looked at her Elder Brother with a hint of suspicion.
After all, it can"t be helped. Endowed with natural talents in the field of acting and being in the company of Xiao Lian, Sheng Tian awakened the legendary actor in him. His acting is now no longer a simple act, he is practically living the moment with full sincerity.
Even the Old Man almost doubted his own moral character. He was not a shameless Old geezer, was he? Maybe he secretly was.
Shaking his head, he shouted in rage "Good, Good, Good, you..." before he could finish, Sheng Tian cut him off saying "Your bootlicking is not bad, but you need to be creative and not so repet.i.tive. I know I am good already. C"mon, praise another one of the infinite cool qualities I have." his lips were curled into a smug smile.
As they say the unending clashes between the idiots, the Sect Master spoke coolly "Enough. Elder Brother, since he is your disciple, he will be able to become an inner disciple directly, core disciple if he is qualified." she wanted to end this discussion with this sentence. Who would"ve thought that..
"I"m not this shameless fellow"s Disciple/Master!" they both spoke at the same time word by word.
"Why are you copying me?" They yelled as their words overlapped once again.
"Shut the f.u.c.k up or f.u.c.k off." Again, the same thing happened.
One Young, One Old stared into each other"s eyes without blinking.
The air between their eyes seemed to be frozen solid by the sheer pressure they exerted. It was no longer a simple banter of words but a battle over the throne of shamelessness.
Sheng Tian felt pretty vexed at this fellow. He really wanted to pack the Old Man into a sandbag and use it for boxing.
The Old Man felt pretty vexed at this fellow. He really wanted to use Sheng Tian as a dummy and play blind bow and arrow practice.
"Master..." a soft ice cold voice interrupted the hot discussion.
Wuhsang came in along with Leng Yue Yan. Leng Yue Yan looked at Sheng Tian as her icy cold face had a rare look of little surprise.
Sheng Tian pulled the Old Man away as he secretly threatened him to reveal the b.o.n.e.r incident. The Old Pervert gritted his teeth and they fled the scene.
Sheng Tian and Old Man reached a beautiful house in the Inner region.
The Old Man said, "Brat, this is your house. Go to the Mystic Ice Grounds to get your robes and ident.i.ty token. Just don"t make me lose my face."
Sheng Tian turned to the Old Man and asked with a knowing expression "Where is the girl"s bath?"
With a perverted chuckle, the Old Man replied "In the misty lake. Don"t take uncalculated risks, you can always contact me on such important matters. After all, I need to improve security for their privacy. So, the best thing I can do is breach the security and find the loopholes." his face showed a dignified expression when he spoke of the act of peeking.
Sheng Tian made an innocent face and said "Old Man, what perverted fantasies are you having? I was asking the area only avoid it in the future. *Ahem* How can I, a good-natured young man do such a thing? I am not a dirty minded person like you."
The Old Man knocked Sheng Tian"s head and said "Stop it already. You are more shameless and perverted than me if not equal. I will be heading out for a while. Cultivate properly or else you will remain single."
Sheng Tian could only nod his head lightly. This Old Man seemed...not bad.
Seeing the Old Man leaving, Sheng Tian shouted: "Wait, Old Man. What is your name?"
The Old Man turned his head sidewards, looking bada.s.s he said in a deep voice "They used to call me Love G.o.d, Prince Charming, Ladies" man, Pleasure Lord...I don"t remember anymore. Yet I can say that any cool sounding name revolving around ladies is mine. " he said.
"Why am I so awesome?" he spoke with a melancholic and depressed tone as he seemed to be fed up with his own awesomeness. Anyone who saw him for the first time would think that he is telling the truth by seeing his life like emotions.
Sheng Tian only felt like beating the old man left and right for copying his line. Wasn"t this supposed to be his exclusive line?
"d.a.m.n!" Sheng Tian pointed his finger at the location of the Old Man, who was no longer there.
