Chapter 12: Endless Sea of Bitterness (2)

He read some things to take note of outside. For example, the price of food and lodging in various places, the local culture, which places were close to Buddha, and which places had more demons and ghosts.

Since he was going out to expiate sins and accumulate merit, he naturally had to go to places with more demons.

It was always good to understand in advance.

Li Xuanxin also saw the Handsome Ranking. As expected, his name was ranked at the top. It was said that he had already occupied it for six years. In other words, ever since he transmigrated, he had become the most handsome man in the world.

He even suspected that the heavens had added the wrong attribute points to his transmigration. They had all added to his looks and not his cultivation talent.

If not for the fact that his master had picked him up and brought him back to Spirit Platform Temple, coupled with the fact that he had activated the Merit Golden Lotus, he would probably have been captured by some old demon of a secluded mountain to be their husband!

He might even be sold to a brothel…

A fat rich woman with yellow teeth and pockmarks, a sloppy coal boss with a big belly and a wretched smile…

Li Xuanxin did not dare to imagine.

In a world where the strong were respected, looks were a sin. The higher one’s looks were, the greater the sin.

‘I’m guilty!’

‘It’s the number one sin in the world!’

‘Amitabha!’

After Li Xuanxin repented, he continued to read the information and discovered that the second place was Ji Tiandao of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Furthermore, he was the second place for six years straight. As expected, he was firmly stepped on by Li Xuanxin.

In a few years, his cultivation would probably be trampled under his feet.

Although it was not intentional, he felt a little guilty.

‘Amitabha!’

‘Benefactor, forgive me!’

Apart from this, Li Xuanxin also learned some other knowledge. For example, Bai Muxue was ranked first on the Beauty Ranking.

However, Ji Tiandao and Ji Tianlin’s identities were not described in detail.

Their names were very similar. He wondered if they were brothers.

If they were really brothers, their bloodline was too terrifying.

However, the surname Ji was in the Great Zhou and did not seem to be the surname of an ordinary family.

Shaking his head, Li Xuanxin closed the book and stopped thinking about these troublesome things.

It was already night. Master and the others should have already begun celebrating for Little Junior Brother, right?

He came to his master’s courtyard and saw that it was brightly lit from afar. The burly Eldest Senior Brother had just come out with a basin of water to pour it away.

The wooden basin was thirty to forty centimeters tall, but in his hand, it was like a small basin for eating.

“Eh, Xuanxin is here. Come, it’s time to eat.”

“Yes, I’m coming.”

Li Xuanxin agreed and followed his senior into the small courtyard.

The other disciples had already arrived. There were a total of six disciples under Master Hui Jue. They were all orphaned and abandoned, or they were severely injured. After he brought them back for treatment, they were shaved to become monks.

The meal was already prepared. Stir-fried spinach, stir-fried beans, stir-fried cucumbers, stir-fried vegetables… If not for the fact that there was still one tofu that was not green, Li Xuanxin would even suspect that his master was trying to hint at a disciple.

At the dining table, Li Xuanxin also saw Xuan Mu, whom he had not seen for a long time.

Ever since he came to Spirit Platform Temple, he had been cultivating and rarely came out.

Li Xuanxin was also often out on missions and rarely returned. The two of them had only met once in the past half a year, five months ago.

Now that they met again, Xuan Mu was much stronger than half a year ago. The elegance between his eyebrows was gone and he looked more determined. He had clearly grown up a lot.

However, for some reason, Li Xuanxin felt a faint evil aura from Xuan Mu.

It was very faint. With the cultivation of others, it was impossible for them to sense it, including their master.

However, Li Xuanxin could clearly sense it.

After all, he was already a River Realm expert with more than 1,400 years of cultivation!

“It’s time to eat. Sit down.”

“Thank you, Master!”

Everyone thanked him and sat down.

Hui Jue smiled.

“Today, we are celebrating for your junior. Xuan Mu is the first disciple under Master to enter the Zen Heart Court. He is the pride of our courtyard.

“However, Xuan Mu, although you will enter the Zen Heart Court in the future, these are still your senior brothers. When you see them, don’t be arrogant. You still have to remember and treat them with respect.”

Xuan Mu nodded.

“I will remember Master’s teachings.”

Hui Jue nodded in satisfaction and looked at everyone.

“You are all children that Master picked up or saved. In Master’s eyes, you are no different from my own children. It’s just that Master’s level is not high and cannot bring you more resources.”

“The only Great Recovery Pill was given to Xuan Mu because his comprehension was high enough and he had a chance to enter the Zen Heart Academy.”

“Now, Xuan Mu did not disappoint and successfully entered the Zen Heart Courtyard.”

“Master hopes that you can still be united in the future and help each other. Bring all the disciples of our courtyard up. Our cultivation levels will be higher and we will walk a longer path.”

“Master, don’t worry. We will definitely follow your instructions and help each other.”

Xuan Shui was the first to speak. This rough man was still relatively meticulous.

The other disciples also spoke, making Hui Jue extremely satisfied.

The banquet lasted for more than an hour. The meal lasted for six or seven minutes. The rest of the time was spent listening to Hui Jue’s teachings.

Hui Jue was indeed a good master. He let Xuan Mu enter the Zen Heart Court not only to save face, but also to make Xuan Mu stronger and go further. Then, he could lead the other senior brothers.

This reminded Li Xuanxin of his worried father in his previous life.

Although he did not have much ability in his life, he had given the only thing he had to his child.

Then, he sat on the small bridge at the end of the village and smoked a cigarette before slowly growing old.

After eating, Master Hui Jue left Xuan Mu alone. He still had some things to say.

The other senior brothers still had a mission tomorrow and had all gone back to rest. Li Xuanxin and Senior Xuan Shui stayed behind to wash the dishes.

“Little Junior Brother has made a name for himself now. He has entered the Zen Heart Court. In the future, his lowest achievement will also be an elder.”

“It’s said that before he entered the temple, his entire family was killed by the fiendish cultivators. Now that he’s in the Zen Heart Court, if his parents in the netherworld know, they can rest in peace.”

Li Xuanxin was silent. Although he had heard from his master that something had happened to Xuan Mu’s family when he had just entered the Spirit Platform Temple, he did not expect it to be so tragic.

However, there was a blood feud. Could Little Junior Brother really let it go?

Li Xuanxin thought of the faint evil aura on his junior.

“I hope he doesn’t walk some evil path.”

“What did you say?”

Li Xuanxin shook his head, “Nothing.”

“Alright. The dishes are all washed. I’ll go clean the floor. Junior Xuanxin, go back and rest.”

“Thank you, Senior.”

When Li Xuanxin left his master’s courtyard, Xuan Mu happened to come out of his master’s room.

Seeing Li Xuanxin, he only said indifferently, “Oh, Senior Brother Xuanxin. you haven’t left yet.”

Li Xuanxin nodded.

“Master is asleep?”

“Yes.” Xuan Mu replied softly.

Li Xuanxin spoke again, “I haven’t congratulated Junior Brother today. Congratulations on entering the Zen Heart Court.”

“Thank you, Senior Xuanxin.”

“You’re welcome.” Li Xuanxin replied indifferently and left.

“Master dotes on you very much. His lifetime contributions can only be exchanged for a Great Recovery Pill. I hope you won’t let him down.”

“Otherwise… I won’t let you off!”

Xuan Mu was shocked. He looked at Li Xuanxin’s back and pondered.

‘Could it be… that he saw something? Impossible. Other than me, the other disciples under Hui Jue are all trash. As for him, he’s the trash among the trash. He cultivated for five years before starting his cultivation journey!’

‘It is impossible for him to see anything.’

‘Perhaps it’s jealousy. These mediocre people are most jealous of everyone.’

‘Unfortunately… mediocre people are mediocre after all. They are short-sighted and are like frogs in a well. They don’t know what the world is like. They can only be jealous.’

‘In a few days, you will know the difference between us.’

‘At that time, all your jealousy will probably turn into fear, right?’

Then, he shook his head and laughed as if he was mocking himself.

“What do I care about a mediocre person? What a waste of time. I’ll go outside the temple first and capture some living beings to increase my cultivation.”
