The Summer Master

When people are killed, they die.

Is this really what is called science?

Liu Qing was skeptical for the time being and stared at Chen Xia, changing the topic.

"Do you know that the two senior brothers from the previous term fought against each other?"

"I don't know, what does it have to do with me?" Chen Xia frowned.

"This was a fight between the Emperor Capital and Qiu Li, the strongest disciples from the previous term, the two emperor seedlings. Don't you even want to watch this?" Liu Qing spoke somewhat anxiously.

"I don't want to." Chen Xia replied very calmly. The fight between Emperor Capital and Qiu Li was really nothing worth seeing.

You might say the two of them fell in love, then Chen Xia would be a little more interested.

"I really don't understand you." Liu Qing rolled her eyes and followed Chen Xia, asking again.

"What do you think about joining the alliance I told you about last time? Li Yang and I discussed it. Although the salary is a little low, it is still a big family where we can avoid being bullied by others."

"Big family?" Chen Xia asked back.

"Yes." Liu Qing nodded. "We are all in this big family, taking care of each other and keeping each other warm."

Chen Xia laughed and shook his head. "Putting hope in others is useless, keeping each other warm is a joke. I never really believed in people."

"Why?" Liu Qing frowned.

"Aren't you the same?" Chen Xia smiled and asked.

Liu Qing's expression froze. She didn't speak again. Her footsteps slowed down as if she had become heavier. Her body fell behind Chen Xia. After a long pause, she said in a deep voice.

"I just want everyone to survive."

"To live under your hands, hmm... or under Li Yang's hands?" Chen Xia smiled and asked.

"There are always some costs. You can't get benefits without paying something back." Liu Qing frowned and refuted.

"That's right." Chen Xia nodded with a plain expression. "You have to add the name of a big family. It really makes me..."

"Disgusted."

His evaluation was very direct.

"Heh." Liu Qing smiled expressionlessly and quickened her pace to match Chen Xia's. Her petite body straightened up, wanting to show that she was no weaker than Chen Xia at all. She said,

"So you saw through it and didn't join, right?"

Chen Xia didn't reply and walked on his own.

Liu Qing seemed a little unwilling. She followed and explained,

"But even if it's a mutually beneficial relationship, it's still very beneficial to you. It can also protect you guys. You just need to contribute some money and effort. "

"We can even subsidize you with money. This is only beneficial to you. How could you not join?"

Chen Xia turned his head. There was some impatience in his expression. He raised his eyebrows and said,

"Because you guys are too boring. Child's play should be played by children like you. Why bother me?"

Chen Xia's words seemed to hit Liu Qing hard, like a shrimp being stripped of its shell, unable to recover.

Liu Qing was stunned. She could no longer keep up with Chen Xia's pace. She could only stare blankly at Chen Xia's back as he walked away.

Child's play?

Is this how he evaluates the alliance she had painstakingly built for 200 years?!

Liu Qing gritted her teeth. The stunned look in her eyes turned into anger. She quickened her pace to catch up with Chen Xia and said in a deep voice,

"How could it be child's play? We are now the strongest force among the probationary disciples. Just give us more time, even the little elders will have to meet us on equal footing and treat us with courtesy!"

Chen Xia nodded, "Children and little elders being on equal footing makes sense, they are both juniors."

"Arrogant!" Liu Qing shouted in a low voice. Her eyes condensed, "Who do you think you are to make such an evaluation, a destitute probationary disciple?!"

"I'm getting annoyed." Chen Xia's brow furrowed. "Don't follow me anymore."

He carried the alchemy furnace and kept walking.

Liu Qing gritted her teeth and still took a step forward.

Suddenly, a hand appeared in front of her, pinching her entire head and holding it tightly. The momentum pressed down on her, rendering her whole body unable to move. Cold sweat streamed down her body.

"Can't you understand words?"

Chen Xia frowned and asked.

Liu Qing could no longer reply. Her body trembled imperceptibly. She was so frightened that she almost fainted.

Chen Xia retracted the hand that was pinching her head and left a finger on her forehead. He shouted,

"Scram!"

Liu Qing's figure instantly retreated thousands of meters. She slumped to the ground, drenched in sweat. She looked extremely shocked. At the moment Chen Xia pinched her head, Liu Qing really felt that she had died.

Her heart was still pounding with fear. Recalling the scene just now, she was even more terrified, unable to even gather spiritual energy. At the same time, a shocking question jumped up in her mind.

How could this be a probationary disciple?!

Thousands of meters away, after politely seeing Liu Qing off, Chen Xia hurried back to his cave.

He only used a little force just now to intimidate her.

Liu Qing was only at the Great Vehicle Realm. If he had really used force, Liu Qing might have lost an arm or leg.

Although it wouldn't have been a serious injury, there was no need for that.

Besides, Chen Xia still had the black ring, he was on probation. He couldn't injure other disciples for no reason, otherwise there would be additional punishment.

Chen Xia placed the alchemy furnace outside the cave to use for cooking soup in the future. He also wiped the black ring on his hand.

This was called cherishing the limited edition medal.

He was the only one in the entire Blue Sky Sword Sea wearing this black ring. So it really was a limited edition.

He tidied up, intending to go to the Sword Forest to look for the big yellow dog.

According to what Zhang Daoming said, it seemed that the big yellow dog was in seclusion. He didn't know exactly what was going on.

Just as Chen Xia was about to leave, another guest arrived outside the cave.

"Master Chen, may I come in?" A trembling voice asked.

Chen Xia frowned. "Which eunuch is this?"

"It's me, Pan Dadao. I'm the little elder you beat before, and later borrowed spirit stones from you." The voice continued.

With this reminder, Chen Xia remembered him. He waved his hand, "I don't have money to pay back now, come back in a few days."

"No no, I wouldn't dare ask you to pay me back. I just wanted to come pay my respects since you'll be back soon."

"Why do you want to see me? Let me make it clear first, I really don't have money to pay you back. Come back in a few days." Chen Xia replied.

"No no, I really don't dare ask for your money." There was a whimper in Pan Dadao's words.

Chen Xia frowned. Somehow he felt like he had become a bully.

It was somewhat like his time back in Weixi Town.

Had to mention it.

It still felt awesome!

Please send the child some wholesome images to save him from color blindness.
