The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

From the various trials at the border, to the opportunities of unlocking inscription-level divine techniques.

From the gains in the grotto heaven forbidden area, to meeting the Lu Family sisters and resolving the Taiqing Sect crisis...

Along the way, without Second Uncle, Zhou Qing wouldn’t be where he is today!

"When did you arrive in Nanhuang State? These two cultivation countries aren’t exactly close!"

Second Uncle suddenly widened his eyes, "Wait... You broke through to Spirit Severing?!"

Zhou Qing chuckled, like a child showing off to an elder: "Just noticed? I broke through a long time ago. If I weren’t trapped in the void, I’d be even stronger by now."

"What? You were trapped in the void?" Second Uncle exclaimed as he draped his arm around Zhou Qing’s shoulder, leading him forward, "Quick, tell me the details..."

...

Deep in the dense forest of the outer domain mountains, Second Uncle sat astride a sturdy tree branch, leisurely swinging his legs.

He occasionally frowned, occasionally burst into laughter, listening intently.

"Eastern Domain unification... Lu Family sisters... Canglong Taoist... Grotto heaven forbidden area... Imperial City... Void..."

Second Uncle clicked his tongue in amazement, "Young man, you’ve had quite the thrilling life these years!"

He patted his thigh, "But since we’ve survived the calamity, there must be future blessings!"

Then, he squinted his eyes, sizing up Zhou Qing from top to bottom.

Suddenly, he lowered his voice, clicking his tongue in appreciation: "Your Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown is truly impressive. I’ve been adventuring for so many years, and now I’ve only reached Spirit Severing Realm, and you..."

He shook his head, his eyes full of envy and comfort.

Zhou Qing nodded with a smile, yet his gaze subtly assessed Second Uncle’s unfamiliar robust physique.

The augmentation technique of the Nascent Soul truly is magical, not only can it alter appearance, but it can also transform body shape so naturally.

"Uncle, what have you been up to all these years in the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty?" Zhou Qing asked curiously.

Second Uncle suddenly laughed heartily, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "You might not believe it if I tell you, I arrived here only a year ago."

"What?" Zhou Qing pretended to be surprised, widening his eyes.

Second Uncle leaned closer mysteriously, lowered his voice: "Since you’ve come to the Fifth Tail, you should know the desolate forbidden area, right?"

Zhou Qing nodded: "Yes, but I’ve never dared to enter, I heard even Supremes might fall inside."

"Wow!" Second Uncle dramatically slapped his thigh, "You even know about the Supreme Realm? Looks like you’ve done your homework!"

He stroked his beardless chin, proudly: "To be honest, I’ve spent the past century inside the desolate forbidden area."

Zhou Qing cooperatively gaped, showing disbelief.

Seeing Zhou Qing’s reaction, Second Uncle became even more smug: "I knew you wouldn’t believe it..."

"I believe!" Zhou Qing interrupted firmly, his eyes sparkling with sincerity and admiration.

Second Uncle was momentarily stunned, then burst into an open-hearted laugh.

He patted Zhou Qing’s shoulder vigorously: "You’re still as naive as back then! So easily trusting people, be careful not to be sold one day while helping count the money!"

"If I’m sold, then so be it," Zhou Qing cheekily replied, "I’ll be the first to bring the money to you!"

"Good kid!" Second Uncle jokingly scolded, shuffled down the tree trunk, and playfully flicked Zhou Qing’s forehead, causing him to grimace in pain.

"A hundred years not seen, your mouth’s gotten even slicker!" Second Uncle’s eyes flashed with comfort.

Then, he changed the topic, "But I’m not lying to you, not only that, but I’ve also gotten to know an incredible elder brother inside."

"Wow~" Zhou Qing exaggeratedly widened his eyes.

Needless to say, this "elder brother" must be the divine beast with Celestial Venerable cultivation.

Second Uncle looked at Zhou Qing’s expression, both amused and irritated: "Your reaction is too fake! But..."

He grinned, "Your uncle just loves it!"

Zhou Qing embarrassingly scratched his head, his ears slightly reddened.

"I’ll introduce you when the time comes," Second Uncle enthusiastically gestured, "He’s the big brother, I’m the second brother, you can be the third!"

Zhou Qing: "..."

"I’m serious!" Second Uncle patted his chest in assurance, "This elder brother of ours is incredibly righteous, you’ll know when you interact with him, and he will definitely like you."

Zhou Qing’s heart leaped joyfully.

If he could truly become brothers with a divine beast of Celestial Venerable level, wouldn’t he be able to walk sideways across the entire Fifth-level Cultivation Country?

That would be more reliable than any backer!

"By the way, I’ve got something good for you!"

Second Uncle suddenly remembered something, then patted his Storage Bag, a black scroll appeared in his rough hand.

At the sight of the scroll, Zhou Qing’s pupils suddenly contracted.
