Ch. 277 - Brother 'Ye Tianchong'

In the end, the thing in the bottle was not this kid's...

Liang Zhu lost interest in an instant. He poured a cup of tea from the teapot on the table, picked it up, and shook it. "Not yours? It's a pity..."

?

"What?" Ye Anping frowned. "Brother Liang, do you really want me to have no descendants? Don't you want to have nephews and nieces?"

"Isn't it better to be unruffled by sentiments and without worries? How many cultivators in the world go astray because of some words of love? If you give up your 'descendants', it will be beneficial to your path to Immortality."

Speaking of being a eunuch as if it was something good and a remarkable feat... Ye Anping rolled his eyes at him, but after a second thought, his eyes moved to his crotch.

Following Ye Anping's gaze, Liang Zhu felt a chill on his back. Now he had brought someone's 'stuff' and asked him to sell it. After he sold it, could he be thinking of his...?

"Don't look at it. Mine is worthless."

"Is it still there?"

Liang Zhu pursed his mouth in displeasure, then glanced at the bottle sealed with oilcloth, and thought for a moment. Tiger and bull penis were great tonics for mortals, and cultivators also had various monsters and spiritual beasts, but this human penis...

"Whose is this?"

Ye Anping glanced at the teacup Liang Zhu was holding, thought for a moment, and then took out a small waxed paper fan from his storage bag.

Liang Zhu was a little confused about his actions, but then he heard. "Yun Tianchong."

?

Yun Tianchong...

Wasn't he the Moon Shadow Sword Sect's promiscuous Patriarch?

Liang Zhu tried to hold it in but couldn't. The tea he had just sipped sprayed toward Ye Anping's face, but Ye Anping blocked it with the small fan.

"Pfft..."

He looked at Ye Anping in disbelief. If someone else had brought this thing, he would have treated him as a liar. But these words came from Ye Anping's mouth after all.

How did he bring a cultivator in the late stage of Deification to...

"Are you kidding me?"

"When did you see me kidding?" Ye Anping threw the fan aside, shrugged, and smiled. "So, can you do it?"

The Black Star Sect's Young Lady's thousand-year black stone sword was still in his bag, and now he had a pair of thousand-year-old balls... Liang Zhu was silent for a long time, then asked, "What kind of mess did you get yourself into with this stuff you asked me to sell? You ran back here with his 'jewels', aren't you afraid he'll come to your door?"

Ye Anping spread his hands. "I didn't do it. Do you think I'm such a ruthless person?"

"Yes."

?

Ye Anping frowned, and a question mark popped on his head.

"Then, who did it?"

"His daughter."

?

The question mark moved to Liang Zhu's head.

He glanced at the closet where Liang Ating was hiding and felt his crotch tighten inexplicably. With a dark face, he put the glass bottle into his storage bag and said, "I'll ask around."

"There's no rush. Just test the waters about the price."

When this bottle was in his storage bag before, he did not feel at ease. Now, he finally handed it over.

Ye Anping let out a sigh of relief. "When I left last time, I told you to look for some talented people. Did you find any?"

"No, I posted recruitment notes on the black market, but the ones who came forward couldn't catch my eye, and I don't think they would catch your eye either."

"None of them?"

Liang Zhu was afraid that Ye Anping would make him choke again, so he didn't drink any more tea and crossed his arms instead. "Not even one, but I did compile a list for you."

With a gesture of his hand, a slip of paper filled with 'nicknames' flew out of his storage bag and landed in Ye Anping's hand.

Ye Anping lowered his head and looked at it. It seemed to be the notebook of a middle school boy, with rows of messy words such as 'Sky-Splitting Moon Blade' -- Xia Bai, 'Wind-Walking Yin-Yang Eyes' -- Cao Zhi Zhi... and so on. This mess of names gave him goosebumps all over.

However, there were also names he recognized, such as: 'Heavenly Pill Taoist' -- Lu Cheng Yun, 'Immortal Thief' -- ?...

Because of his poor spiritual aptitude, this Heavenly Pill Taoist tried to use the Armor Puppet technique to achieve the path of longevity that cultivators aspired to and replaced almost half of his physical body with spiritual iron.

Ye Anping could accept his idea of "mechanical ascension", even if it was regarded as a treason and evil thing on the Immortal Path.

However, he couldn't accept that this person was looking for "volunteers" to conduct in vivo research.

It's okay to be a little crazy, but going overboard and starting to recruit people for your own madness, you will cause trouble for yourself, and the losses will outweigh the gains.

As for the last name, 'Immortal Thief'...

Ye Anping thought for a while before asking, "Have you ever talked to this Immortal Thief?"

Liang Zhu rolled his eyes. "You really think highly of me. Guess why there is a question mark after him?"

"So... you didn't find out anything about her?"

"The Seven Slayers Sect went after this person in the past, as the bounty was very high. But after so many decades of searching, I don't even know whether he is a boy or a girl, let alone his name and location..."

Ye Anping felt this might be a difficult thing to handle. He also had the Imperial Sect's plan in mind when he returned.

He really needed someone proficient in stealing.

---Someone who could enter and exit the vault of the Imperial Sect sealed by the Four Symbols, and quietly take a pure gold statue weighing ten thousand pounds out of the vault.

This was something that he could do on his own if he planned it out, but it was better for a professional to do it.

In the game, the Immortal Thief Girl happened to appear in the Imperial Sect chapter. While the two forces were mediating, she was stirring up trouble, stealing here and there, making war fortunes, and muddying the waters.

"Well..." Ye Anping stroked his chin, nodding. "Brother Liang, how about a trip to the Central Region Imperial Sect?"

Central Region Imperial Sect... Liang Zhu frowned slightly when he heard this name. "Imperial Sect?"

"There's something I need your help with. My sister and I will arrive later, but you have to go there first and make preparations in advance."

"To do what?"

"Mix into the Imperial Sect's Justice Division, as a disciple of the Hundred Lotus Sect and become a Division constable. When the time comes, you will be there to support me, my sister, Feng Yu Die, and others. I have plans for specific matters."

"..."

Liang Zhu looked at him extremely seriously, unable to answer for a long time.

Now, he couldn't help but wonder -- could it be that Ye Anping knew his origin?

He had left the Justice Division long ago. He thought that after so many years, the karma between him and the Division had long been broken, but now he had to go back?

Seeing that Liang Zhu had been silent for so long, Ye Anping had a hunch, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "Brother Liang, are you from the Imperial Sect?"

Liang Zhu came to his senses and replied, "Does it matter?"

"Not really." Ye Anping shrugged. "Yes or no, I'm still your sixth brother and you're my eldest brother, but I do have some idea of ​​your previous identity.

"Heh..." Liang Zhu sneered. "Is that so? Then, tell me..."

The Imperial Sect had a secret history, which in the game was just a background used to complete the worldview.

---When the second princess of the Imperial Sect was born, sudden changes in the meteorological phenomena caused chaos in the spiritual energies, resulting in most of the land in the Central Region drying up and turning into desert. In order to quell Heaven's anger, the Central Region Emperor sacrificed the second princess to the immortal beasts in the territory, thereby calming down the strange phenomena.

---But then, an unknown guard who escorted the second princess into the mountain was so devoted that he secretly rescued her, and then they escaped together. After that, their whereabouts remained unknown.

After the Emperor of the Central Region knew about it, he blocked the news and did not let anyone pursue it, so the matter was eventually forgotten.

Time, the relationship between Liang Zhu and Little Ating, their cultivation, and Liang Zhu's reaction when he heard of the Central Region, all confirmed his assumption.

In the game, there was no follow-up on this matter, but now, he accidentally stumbled upon it.

If the Hundred Lotus Sect had been wiped out, the Magical Poison Sect would not have sent a wanted notice for Feng Yu Die to the Seven Slayers Sect, and Liang Zhu would not have been sent to capture her...

This was quite the fate... Ye Anping smiled slightly. "Let's say a young guard kidnapped the princess and ran away with her. Could it be that Ating is a princess?"

Listening to Ye Anping's joking tone, Liang Zhu's frown relaxed. "Your imagination is really rich."

"So be it." Ye Anping waved his hand and sighed. "What you were in the past has nothing to do with me. However, I must ask you about the Imperial Sect. I will prepare your identity tag, and I will also ensure your safety, Brother Liang. You just need to meet us inside, and by the way, find that Immortal Thief Girl and bring her in for us to recruit."

"Immortal Thief? A girl?"

"Yes, a lively girl~"

Liang Zhu rolled his eyes and didn't agree directly, saying, "I'll think about it."

"My sister and I will stay here for two days before returning to the Black Star Sect. I hope you can give me an answer before we leave."

After saying that, Ye Anping stood up, turned around, and walked out. But when he reached the door of the pavilion, he stopped and asked again, "Speaking of Ating, how has her life been in the past six months in the Hundred Lotus Sect?"

"... She is okay. Why do you ask?" Liang Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze suddenly became sharp. "Sixth Brother, I have to warn you..."

Ye Anping raised his eyebrows and rolled his eyes at him. "What do you take me for?"

Your sister, the silver-haired girl of the Holy Emperor's bloodline, the Young Lady of the Black Star Sect, the current Young Miss of the Dragon House...

The names of the four beautiful girls flashed through Liang Zhu's mind. He pursed his lips, took out the glass bottle from his storage bag, swirled it twice between his fingers, then said, "Ye Tianchong."

?

Ye Anping blinked, took a deep breath, and replied with a smile, "Brother Liang, do you want me to find an adoptive mother for Ating?"

"Heh, don't bother."

After watching Ye Anping leave, Liang Zhu let out a long breath, turned his head to look at the bookcase beside him, and called out. "Ating, they're gone. Come out."

Squeak---

The bookcase door slowly opened, and Liang Ating looked left and right before moving out cautiously.

After eavesdropping on Liang Zhu and Ye Anping's conversation, she rushed forward to grab the glass bottle in Liang Zhu's hand, but Liang Zhu was quick on his feet and immediately sent Yun Tianchong's balls back to the storage bag.

"What are you doing?"

"What did uncle give you? Let me see..."

"Ating, this is a matter between adults, why are you poking your nose?"

"I want to see!!" Liang Ating leaned on Liang Zhu's body. "Let me see!!!"

"If you scream any louder, your aunt will be here soon..."

Whoosh---

While Liang Zhu was still speaking, a white shadow flashed in from outside the Study Pavilion.

Pei Lianxue rushed in and grabbed Liang Ating from Liang Zhu with one hand. "Ating, I've been looking for you for a long time."

"Ah?!" Liang Ating cowered and reached out to Liang Zhu for help. "Father!!!"

"Brother Liang, you must be busy. I'm taking Ating to the martial arts field."

"..."

Liang Zhu reached out, trying to stop her, but Pei Lianxue was one step ahead and flew away with Liang Ating on her sword.

He shook his head slightly and sighed. "Heh -- it's good. Hundred Lotus Sect is really good."

Then, he went on to deal with the trivial paperwork on the table.
