Chapter 357: Big Brother Comes Out of Seclusion

Chapter 357 – Big Brother Comes Out of Seclusion

Chang Min lowered his head, and saw a magnificent and glorious view. At the same time, he also noticed that distinct symbol, and recognized this place!

Ten Ultimates Sect!

It was actually Ten Ultimates Sect!

The others made this same discovery. They looked at one another with incredulous expressions.

The four brothers and sisters had never joined any organizations.

It was because they knew that, although their aptitudes weren’t bad, they only improved up to this point by giving it their all. When their realms were low, there was basically no way to join a large organization. Even if they could enter one, it would be hard to be regarded importantly by the other side with their aptitudes. At that time, if they had to complete any missions assigned by that organization, all of the obtainable resources wouldn’t compare to what they could strive to get on their own — There wouldn’t have been any way to satisfy the requirements for purchasing Xue Shen’s Tiger Vitality Pills!

While they might’ve been able to find and rely on the members of a large organization when they were stronger, it couldn’t be casually done right now. They had to find an accommodating individual who could give Xue Shen some treatment.

With regards to the people who had integrated into Shijue City for many years, Ten Ultimates Sect was the best destination. Unfortunately, their reputations in this place could only frighten martial artists of lower classes. As far as Ten Ultimates Sect was concerned, that didn’t count for anything — Let alone saying that they possessed any desire to join the sect.

But now, they were under the control of another person, and became this guy’s medicinal slaves. Contrary to expectations, they were entering Ten Ultimates Sect… It had to be said that they couldn’t help but lament in their hearts.

Ming Wanzhu inwardly sighed: “Actually, I’ve been thinking. It doesn’t seem surprising that a senior who could refine a prismatic pill would come from Ten Ultimates Sect.”

Having heard what was said, the others nodded their heads with heavy expressions.

However, regardless of where their new master came from, their fates had long been sealed. All that they could hope for now was that the other party tested medicines in moderation, which would allow them to live a few years longer — They would try their hardest to elevate themselves from medicinal slaves to retainers as shortly as possible.

Once again, they realized the darkness of the days ahead, and said nothing else.

Although they used qi energy to screen their voices, a pharmacist’s psychic power could be considered a cheat tool. Perhaps, their master could hear them… As a result, it was for the best that they obediently refrained from discussing anything further.

Without anyone the wiser, the wild bird had already flown a very far distance. Finally, it slightly descended after circling a few times in front of a vast and boundless manor and compound.

Up above, Ao Ying gestured toward the guards of the manor.

At once, the precautions were lifted, and the wild bird flew once more… This time, it traversed a dense forest, and landed before a mountain peak that was three hundred meters tall.

Ming Wanzhu and the others jumped down. Their hearts were beating quickly.

This place was too shocking. What kind of person would own such a large plot of feudal land? Could it be that it belonged to this senior?

Previously, when they caught glimpses of the amazing scenery, they noticed the coming and going of many non-human races. According to the information they obtained after mingling with the lower class martial artists, the ones who could utilize nonhuman servile races in Ten Ultimates Sect were either prodigies or powerhouses… This inevitably caused them to make numerous guesses.

Gu Zuo didn’t take down his hood.

Right now, he suddenly thought of a problem. At the present time, where would be a relatively good place to settle these people down?

Originally, he said that he would make them medicinal slaves, and medicinal slaves ought to have stayed with their master. However, on this mountain peak where he and his family’s big brother resided, no one else was allowed to climb up besides the bodyguards who personally defended them. He couldn’t let other people live in his and his big brother’s private space, right?

After considering some things, Gu Zuo looked at Ao Ying: “Send someone to pass along these orders. Set aside a location below the waist of the mountain to build a residence, and settle them down.”

Ao Ying promptly responded, but didn’t leave. Instead, he made several signals at a secret place. A shadowy figure immediately flashed out with great speeds, and went to implement this matter.

Ming Wanzhu and the others gained a better understanding of this senior’s might and influence.

Soon after, Gu Zuo turned around.

His facial features still couldn’t be seen clearly, and his entire person was completely covered up. The feelings this gave people were so sinister and strange. One would tremble from the bottom of their heart.

Gu Zuo’s voice was dark and sullen: “All of you will wait here. If this venerable one has any need of you, come when summoned.” Speaking up to this point, the malice in his tone practically overflowed, “You all are useful to this venerable one, but if you dare escape — Humph!”

These couple of people trembled uncontrollably, but nevertheless, their expressions were solemn: “Yes, master. We wouldn’t dare betray thee!”

Gu Zuo gave a sweeping glance: “This venerable one will go to refine medicine. If you all know your place, there will naturally be benefits.”

Even though Ming Wanzhu and the others knew that this was a stick-and-carrot strategy, their hearts still roused with happiness. In any case, at least this pharmacist’s words could be counted on. It was better to settle on an agreement than constantly rush around and worry about their little brother’s small life like before…

After making things clear, Gu Zuo led the others up the mountain.

The footsteps of the medicinal slaves were lighter and quicker. It was probably due to hope. As before, Xue Shen was lifted by the two older brothers with a soft chair. When he looked at this high mountain peak, he felt the attentive care of his older brothers and sisters. At this moment, his pair of somewhat frail and perplexed eyes became even more firm and determined.

If he was able to recover completely, never again would he become a burden to them!

Once they reached the halfway point on the mountain, Ming Wanzhu and the other four were left behind. Suddenly, a monkey race member leaped out from the side. In a conscientious and serious manner, he explained the rules and provided guidance to them.

Meanwhile, Gu Zuo continued upwards. With Ao Ying and the other hidden guards, they reached the summit.

Gu Zuo took off the cloak as soon as he made it to the top.

After that, he silently wiped away the sweat on his forehead.

…Putting on an act was truly a technical skill. Improvisation was just too tiring.

Of course, Gu Zuo’s character had always been a little soft. Granted that he had been tempering himself for a long time in this different world, when all was said and done, he wasn’t even twenty yet. If it was in modern times, he would’ve just reached the age to go to college! Truly, it was quite difficult for someone who never had a rotten conscience to pretend to threaten innocent people with “poison”.

Fortunately, the cloak increased his imposing aura, and he himself imitated Xu Lingxiu’s manner of speech. Thus, he scared those people without any problems — Most of all, this prevented Shopkeeper Fang from having too many ideas based on his outward appearance.

Speaking of which, Gu Zuo hadn’t thought of everything initially, so he had to make up for it afterwards.

In the beginning, selling medicinal pills had been a plan he devised at the last minute. Because he spent too much, he wanted to make some money in return. He naturally knew that prismatic pills were very precious, but he also knew that the most precious aspect of prismatic pills was that it reportedly could aid martial artists in path comprehension. As for his own pill prescriptions, because of this kind of prescription in his possession, he estimated its value incorrectly.

Due to this, when Gu Zuo began selling medicinal pills, he thought there was nothing to hide. Later on, once he found out that the price had exploded, he wondered whether it would’ve saved him some trouble if he had kept it hidden from the start.

As a result, he tried to frighten people.

He hoped that this could achieve his goal.

After shaking his head and rubbing his face, Gu Zuo didn’t think about this anymore. Then, he squeezed back into the medicine refining room.

Agreements to other people needed to be upheld. Regardless of when he gave them the medicinal pill, he would at least refine it first. He would think about what to do next afterwards. Hehe.

Perhaps because prismatic pills received too much recognition, their prices were a hundred times greater than that of flawless pills. Under such formidable pressure, Gu Zuo actually performed exceptionally well. For the first time, all three pills of this batch were prismatic pills!

The three pills inside the furnace looked beautiful, but not a trace of qi emissions leaked out. They seemed like ordinary medicinal pills. Gu Zuo made a helpless expression.

What should be said about this…

He might’ve been a bit of a money-grubber.

Gu Zuo wiped his face again.

He took out the source sand, and continued to research this thing. His dear big brother’s breakthrough was close at hand. He didn’t believe that he wasn’t able to figure it out!

In a wooden house, on a soft bed.

A slim young man was reclining against the headboard. Although his body could barely move, at this moment, he was thumbing through an ancient text and doing his best to comprehend something.

Outside, the door opened with a creaking noise. An elegant young lady with a scholarly appearance entered while carrying a wooden tray. Placed on top of this tray was a goblet of medicinal soup. It gave off faint trails of steam.

“Little brother, you should take your medicine.”

Although Lian Xinzi’s tone was tranquil, one could hear that it was full of deep concern. It would cause people’s hearts to ache with sympathy.

At the same time, another clear and loud voice resounded. A gorgeous young lady wearing crimson robes came inside while holding an iron basin. She wrung a towel dry, moved to the side of the bed, and wiped the young man’s fingers clean: “Little brother, how do you feel today?”

After the two girls entered, standing beside the doorframe were two young men with totally different temperaments. They looked somewhat older than the youth on the bed, and attentive care was clearly seen across their faces.

Xue Shen allowed Ming Wanzhu to wipe him clean. When his gaze swept over these older brothers and sisters, the expression in his eyes softened: “Big brother, second brother, third sister, fourth sister — There’s no need for you guys to act this way… I’m already doing pretty well. In the future, I’ll definitely recover completely. At that time, our family will be even better.”

Speaking up to here, he seemed to think about something, and his voice weakened somewhat.

For his sake, his brothers and sisters paid too much. It was to the point that the pain in his heart was difficult to describe. He was better off thinking about the brighter side of things.

Ming Wanzhu and the others looked at Xue Shen, who was already a mature, young adult. What they recalled wasn’t the price they paid. Rather, it was that stubborn teenager back then — The one whom they called master. At that time, he was afraid of implicating them, and drew away that powerhouse by himself. Their lives had obviously been saved by the Xue Clan and by Xue Shen. Even though it would’ve been a matter of course to sacrifice themselves for him, Xue Shen had been so young. He truly regarded them as his close family members. How couldn’t they treat him the same, and view him as their most important person?

Up until now, they really hadn’t been separated from one another.

Watching Xue Shen drink the medicinal soup, this small group of people were happy and reassured.

It had been four to five days since they came to this place, but they never heard any word from that senior to test his medicines. On the contrary, a golden-level pharmacist was sent over to check Xue Shen’s pulse. In addition, this pharmacist used some medicinal soups to temporarily warm and nurture his body. Although this wouldn’t be able to cure him, this allowed Xue Shen to feel much more relaxed.

Previously, it wasn’t that Yu Fei didn’t invite some pharmacists to come over. It was just that the pharmacists within large organizations simply couldn’t be contacted. The ones he invited were pharmacists who set up clinics outside. Although they were also at the golden level, it could be seen that their foundations were inferior to that of Ten Ultimates Sect’s pharmacists — Granted that the group didn’t understand any medicine refining techniques, one could tell just how exquisite these techniques were.

Sure enough, this pharmacist wasn’t the same as the ones from before. Those exorbitant pharmacists didn’t utilize any special or effective methods. Yet, after checking Xue Shen’s pulse, this pharmacist was the first to alleviate Xue Shen’s pain.

As far as Ming Wanzhu and the others were concerned, this was already worth celebrating.

At the same time, they no longer felt tormented over the fact that they risked everything to become medicinal slaves. Instead, their hearts truly became somewhat willing.

Xue Shen obediently finished drinking his medicine, which eased the four brothers and sisters.

Soon after, Lian Xinzi gave a gentle and soft smile: “Today, it’s Ah Zhu’s turn to watch over little brother. If there are any martial disciplines that little brother doesn’t understand, you can directly ask Ah Zhu. Just don’t exhaust yourself.”

Such words were spoken once a day. The four brothers and sisters would patiently urge him, and Xue Shen would patiently agree: “Okay, third sister.”

Ming Wanzhu proudly sat on the side: “If little brother says something wrong, I’ll smack your hand!”

The others were amused by her joke, and even Xue Shen, who had been worried the entire time, cracked a smile.

After that, they chattered and bantered a bit more. Lian Xinzi and the other two left the room first.

Although life during these years of interdependence hadn’t run smoothly, and Xue Shen’s body also seemed like a hopeless case, Ming Wanzhu and the others never gave up on nurturing Xue Shen. Yes, his body was no good, but this didn’t mean that his mind was a lost cause. Consequently, the four gathered all of the body cultivation methods they had, and let Xue Shen read through them. They also gave Xue Shen many demonstrations of their moves.

Although the present Xue Shen’s strength was equal to nothing, his theories and insights were extraordinary.

Ming Wanzhu was today’s instructor. She put away the bright smile on her face, and spoke in a conscientious manner: “Little brother, I’ll give you a demonstration of a new martial skill I learned first. This one doesn’t need internal qi. Let’s see how much you can understand.”

Xue Shen nodded without the slightest hesitation: “Okay, I’ll have to trouble fourth sister!”

After that, one person demonstrated and the other observed. Both of them took things seriously.

Outside.

As Lian Xinzi put away the bowl and tray, Chang Min and Yu Fei were already sparring.

They didn’t have any foundations or backers. Their opponents were each other, and the same went for helpers. As their realms were both at the Atomic Realm, the strengths of these two brothers were evenly matched. While their battles were exceptionally fierce, they were hardly worried about harming the other side with their own attacks.

Because, only by suffering injuries at this time would it be possible to save one’s life when fighting in the outside world later on.

Lian Xinzi watched for a short period. Then, she sat cross-legged on the side, and began meditating and operating her cultivation method.

There was no time to waste. She needed to become stronger, too!

— This was the daily routine for these five brothers and sisters after they came to Ten Ultimates Sect.

However, this day was destined to be different.

Just when they were sparring and meditating, everyone suddenly felt a severe bout of shivers within their hearts. It was as if an invisible, suppressive might had engulfed and swept everything away. In a split second, it almost made them want to collapse and crawl on the ground — Luckily, they had adventured for many years, and their willpower was enough to endure it. As a result, they barely held on.

But even though it was like this, Chang Min and Yu Fei stopped battling. Lian Xinzi stood up with even prompter vigilance, and followed the two older brothers to meet up together.

Their complexions were pale.

Yu Fei’s voice was somewhat hoarse: “What’s going on? Although there’s a powerhouse on this mountain peak, the suppressive might is usually restrained. It has never been this much…”

Just as these words fell, a rumbling boom echoed out.

The boulders above the waist of the mountain started to break apart, and many tumbled down.

Chang Min leaped out, and used qi energy to destroy several slabs of stone. However, the energies carried by those boulders still numbed his palm. It felt rather sore.

This greatly surprised him!

— What kind of energy could be so frightful?

These couple of brothers and sisters became even more worried. If these boulders fell on top of little brother’s room, it certainly would’ve been smashed. It would be anything but reassuring had this injured little brother.

After exchanging glances, the three of them decided to scout out the situation.

They were given instructions not to climb to the summit, but these signs of activity didn’t originate from the peak. In that case, it should’ve been okay. If they were able to discover anything suspicious going on, perhaps this would be regarded as a small contribution.

Bearing such thoughts, the group jumped up, and swiftly moved towards the source of that noise.

Along the way, quite a few stones continued to topple. They rapidly swatted with their palms to shatter the rocks. Finally, there was nothing else to cause these stones to tumble down.

Not much later, they arrived at the noise’s source.

Immediately following which, the three couldn’t help holding their breaths. They rigidly stood a slight distance away.

At this moment, a person had just walked out of a cave on the side of a cliff. His stance was relaxed, his temperament was calm and unruffled, and his qi energy…was terrifying. The danger was indescribable.

This threatening feeling assailed the senses. Yu Fei almost subconsciously wanted to reveal his spirit weapon! Fortunately, Chang Min was more cool-headed, and swiftly used a hand to pull him back, which also calmed Yu Fei down.

Lian Xinzi’s fingers lightly trembled. She had never felt this kind of dread before — In that very instant, it was as if she had been glimpsed upon by that person. The intimidating light in his eyes had nearly caused the heart of her martial path to break!

…Her realm was the lowest, and the terror she felt was the greatest!

Soon after, in the blink of an eye, the three saw a young man wearing a full-length, sapphire-blue brocade robe appear just eight steps in front of them. This person’s appearance was extremely handsome. Once the imposing aura was restrained, he was like the moon on the horizon — Clear and bright, with a wondrous splendor.

The feelings of terror were alleviated. It was just that this type of feeling had already been carved into their hearts. No matter what happened, the group of three would never be able to forget it.

Then, the young man suddenly opened his mouth. His voice was slightly low and magnetic: “Who are all of you?”

As the eldest, Yu Fei stepped forward bravely. His voice was self-assured and composed: “We are the medicinal slaves of Pharmacist Gu. We have been arranged to wait for his summons on the mountain. Because the boulders on the mountain had tumbled down, we were worried and went to check things out.”

The brocade-robed young man revealed a smile. In a split second, the sky was bright and the wind was clear: “So, it’s like this.” After that, he paused, and seemed to laugh softly, “Medicinal slaves?”

Yu Fei answered: “Yes.” He exchanged a glance with Chang Min, and inquired, “Whom might this honored sir be?”

The brocade-robed young man said: “Me?”

He slightly turned his head. His tone carried a smiling expression: “I’ll let the one who accepted you guys be the one to explain.”

Yu Fei didn’t understand.

Chang Min and Lian Xinzi also didn’t understand.

All of a sudden, their lines of sight faced up towards the mountain top.

At this very moment, a silhouette was rushing down. In a short time, this figure threw themself in front of the brocade-robed young man.

“Big brother, you came out of seclusion!”
