Half-Tried Deity-Chapter 7: Flower Peacock And A Sissy

After entering the main hall of Wang Feng Palace, Qi Huan looked around and saw that many people had already arrived in the hall. However, judging from the ugliness of their clothes, they were obviously not disciples of the Qing Yun Sect.

Regarding the exclusive “school uniform” of the Qing Yun Sect, Qi Huan really couldn’t bear it anymore. The size was the same for men and women. It was a long cyan robe and a white belt. It looked fine on a man, like Ling Yun Zi, because even ugly clothes were pleasing to the eye on him.

But if Qi Huan put it on, the result would be horrifying, especially when she wandered around at night, it would be like a ghost from a horror movie.

Ling Yun Zi took Qi Huan into the hall and bowed to Xu Kong Zi and the others. Then, he stood at the end with Qi Huan. Qi Huan didn’t think it was wrong though. Although she had a high status in the Qing Yun Sectt, and the two Junior Nephews were quite tolerant to her, she couldn’t be sure that others would feel the same.

After all, celestials were still the strong ones in the cultivation world. If she was a low-level disciple sitting ignorantly next to Xu Kong Zi, it would be inevitable that some people would make irresponsible remarks in front of Ling Feng Zi.

After Qi Huan stood firmly, her eyes began to gaze around. Seeing Ling Feng Zi chatting with a few other sect leaders, Qi Huan vigorously despised him secretly. Why did he have nothing to say to her but so much to talk about to others? This was definitely sexism!

“Your Senior Brother is usually so enthusiastic to people?” After standing for a long time, Qi Huan couldn’t help asking Ling Yun Zi beside her.

“…” Ling Yun Zi looked up at Ling Feng Zi, who was forcing a smile, then turned back to look at Qi Huan. Then, he swiftly turned his head away, ignoring her. To her, Ling Feng Zi was enthusiastic, but to him, it was obvious that that man was mocking and taunting.

“Hey, who is that old man dressed like a peacock?”

“Mount Shu. He is the law enforcement elder, Yuan Xin Zi, currently in the middle stages of yuanying.” Ling Yun Zi knew that if he did not answer Qi Huan’s question, she would not be able to shut her mouth up. Then, he would have to suffer her endless questioning, so he might as well answer her now. “Also, the “peacock” look you mentioned, is a Cang Lan celestial outfit, a low-grade Celestial Device.”

The magical tools of the cultivation world are divided into three levels, Treasure Device, Spirit Device, and Celestial Device. Each level is divided into three ranks. Among them, Celestial Devices are extremely rare. Most of the Celestial Devices were found from the celestials’ abode left behind by some celestials, even the Qing Yun Sect had only three Celestial Devices.

“Tsk, he’s really incredible! He actually bears to wear that Celestial Device!” Qi Huan’s tone was a little sour, thinking of her poor shifu. He didn’t give her any decent magic tool. He wanted to practice ascetical cultivation, fine, but he didn’t have to drag his apprentice into it as well, right!

Qi Huan only had two high-grade Spirit Devices, and these were stolen from Xu Kong Zi’s Senior Brother and Junior Brother. It really wasn’t easy for her as a time traveler, she had to steal from old folks, imagine that!

“Oh, oh, that, that person who looks like a woman…” Before Qi Huan finished speaking, Ling Yun Zi covered her mouth. Although all the people present did not activate their spiritual consciousness out of their respect for Xu Kong Zi and others, the ears of a cultivator were very alert. They could easily hear what Qi Huan said.

Just now when Qi Huan was talking about Yuan Xin Zi, the other party actually heard her, but Yuan Xin Zi had always had a very good temper, so he just laughed it off, but this time Qi Huan had stabbed into someone’s painful spot.

The sect leader of Kunlun, Qing Xiao, hated the most when people said he looked like a woman. Back when Ling Feng Zi was not the leader of Qing Yun Sect, he accidentally mistaken Qing Xiao for a woman by calling him Junior Sister. And because of that, Qing Xiao hated him for more than four hundred years. If it weren’t for Ling Feng Zi’s strength being slightly stronger than Qing Xiao, perhaps he would have fought with Ling Feng Zi.

This time he brought five elite disciples of Kun Lun Mountain to observe the ceremony, undoubtedly to intimidate Ling Feng Zi. Therefore, what Qi Huan said just now was basically adding fuel into fire.

However, a rare evil smile appeared on Ling Yun Zi’s face. It would be fine if Qing Xiao hadn’t heard it because if he really came to Qi Huan for trouble, the trouble would be really big.

His Senior Uncle Xu Kong Zi had been practicing ascetical cultivation all his life, and he had never taken an apprentice before. Now his strength could be ranked in the top five in the cultivation world. That time when Qi Huan cut off a piece of his 10,000-year-old white magnolia with a sickle, Xu Kong didn’t bother to punish her at all. Instead, he scolded Ling Feng Zi… Well, of course he would do that, it wouldn’t hurt him by punishing other people’s disciples!

Don’t judge a book by its cover. Xu Kong Zi was famous for his kind and gentle temper, and he was always friendly. It was rumoured that he was quite a wicked one when he was young. No wonder people say that a shifu mirrors his disciples! If Qing Xiao dared to trouble Qi Huan, that old man would directly set fire to Kun Lun Sect. Some people said that the arson at Kun Lun Sect five hundred years ago was related to the three elders in the hall.

Although Qi Huan’s voice was not loud, Ling Yun Zi was pretty sure that Qing Xiao heard her, otherwise his face wouldn’t have become as colour as a colour palette. However, he controlled himself, instead of throwing a huge tantrum. Perhaps he knew Qi Huan was just a low-level disciple that he could deal with whenever he wanted.

The angry Qing Xiao didn’t even think about it carefully. How could a low-level disciple come into Wang Feng? In fact, she was personally brought in by the sect’s Senior Brother, Ling Yun Zi.

After all the guests who came to observe the ceremony entered the hall, Ling Feng Zi was also quite thirsty already. He then allowed Qing Yuan disciples to lead the leaders of various sects to the guest room to rest. They would begin to observe the ceremony two days later.

Soon the hall was emptied, leaving only the three old men and Qi Huan. Qi Huan walked directly to Xu Kong Zi, and casually sat beside him. Then she complained, “I say shifu, you really don’t think of me as your apprentice, do you? Why didn’t you tell me that you were going to transition?”

Hearing that, Xu Kong Zi laughed in embarrassment, “I accidentally drank too much the other day, and when I woke up, I found that I was going to transition in just a few days time.”

“Yeah, and you conveniently appreciated the law of heaven!” Xu Ling Zi, Xu Kong Zi’s Senior Brother, gave his Junior Brother a vicious glare. Others may not be able to experience transition ever in their lifetime. His Junior Brother was lucky, he was jealous of him.

There was nothing in his life that could compare to his junior, but… Xu Ling Zi looked back at Qi Huan, who was staring at her shifu, in deep thought. Finally, there was some balance. At least the apprentice he took was better than Xu Kong’s apprentice.

“Shifu, you won’t have to spend ten and a half months on this journey, right?” Qi Huan asked with lingering fear, she didn’t want to be the first to starve to death in the cultivation world, it would be too shameful!

“No.” Xu Kong Zi couldn’t help frowning after hearing what his apprentice said. If the transition lasted for ten days and a half, he wouldn’t even have any bones left.

“That’s good, that’s good. Shifu, you see you will have to retreat from practice after the transition, right? Don’t you think that you should improve your apprentice’s equipment level before retreating?”

“Equipment?” Xu Kong Zi asked puzzledly.

“Your little Huan Zi is asking you for magical tools!”

Only

“Oh, magical tools, how about I let you use this low-level Celestial Device?” Xu Kong Zi flipped through his storage ring and took out a small glazed tower.

“Shifu, I’m not capable of using that!” Qi Huan shouted through gritted teeth. One didn’t have to think whether she could use that thing or not. That wasn’t the real problem here. The problem was what if someone found out that she had a Celestial Device? She would surely be hunted down after stepping out from the gate of Qing Yun Sect.

She was greedy for money, yes, but she cherished her life even more.

“Hey, then how about this? You can use this Air Cutting Silk.” Seeing that his Junior Brother hadn’t found a magical tool that Qi Huan could use after looking through his storage ring for a long time, Xu Ling Zi directly took an article of fabric from his storage ring and handed it to Qi Huan.

“…Senior Uncle, this is too small to use as a handkerchief.” Staring at the red cloth, Qi Huan secretly despised her Senior Uncle for being stingy.

“How is that small? Although I don’t know the origin of this fabric, I took it from a Celestial abode, so it is definitely not bad, just take it.” Xu Ling Zi snorted dissatisfiedly.

“Senior Uncle is right, I’m so sorry.” Qi Huan’s dissatisfaction disappeared as soon as she heard that it was taken from a Celestial abode. She smiled and walked away with the fabric.
