Chapter 39: Filial Piety (3000 words)

not a single black sand skeleton remained whole.She soon caught up with Qiao Yu. It was at this moment that the Hidden Spirit Amulet lost its power, and Qiao Yu was surrounded by three black sand skel...: []

Luocisi's eyes welled up with tears at the stimulation.

Lin Qi has started playing the policy of appeasement again.

"Junior brother, do you know what your biggest problem today is"

After being stimulated, Luo Ci actually didn't want to pay attention to Lin Qi, but she couldn't help but be curious inside.

She shuffled over awkwardly and said in a fierce voice, “What!”

"You're too rash! You always disregard people and don't think things through. That's how you ended up in such a ridiculous situation!"

The first two sentences were fine, but the next sentence directly raised Luo Ci's anger to the sky and made her want to draw a line and leave.

"Second Senior Sister, you're too infuriating! I'm breaking off contact with you for three days!"

After finishing, I still went to tell Elder Yuan Xi, "Elder Sister, Second Sister bullied me!"

Tears welled up in her eyes, still filled with grievance.

Yuanxi Shijie's personality is gentle, and this time she didn't indulge Luo Ci either.

She said in a gentle tone, "Third junior brother, don't panic when things happen. Fortunately, Master doesn't know about today's events, or you would have suffered a lot."

Although Qingyun True Monarch is gentle, he never goes easy on his disciples during training. Over the past month, Luo Ci must have felt this the most.

Luo Ci immediately drooped his head and said with a weak voice, "Senior Sister, I know I was wrong!"

Master Yuan Xi calmly took out a memory stone from her bosom, "This memory stone recorded your performance today. You can watch it several times yourself and see where you need to improve for next time."

Luo Ci stared blankly at the person wildly slashing in the reflection stone, incredulously shouting, "Is this really me!"

Yuanshi and Lin Qi looked at him with smiles but said nothing.

Who's clueless here

Lin Qi touched his chin and sighed, "Master said before that his younger brother was born with good luck, able to turn danger into safety at critical moments. Now I've witnessed it myself."

Yuan Xi, the senior sister, glanced at Lin Qi and asked with a smile, "What ghost idea are you cooking up again"

"That's not true!"

Lin Qi quickly defended, "I was just thinking that in the future, no matter where we go, we can't leave our third junior brother behind."

Yuanxi Shijie nodded seriously, "You're right about that."

Luo Ci raised her head, feeling wronged. She looked at Lin Qi and then at Yuan Xi, her senior sister. Suddenly, she felt that the world was very unkind.

As one approaches the city of Luoyang, one's words should naturally become more relaxed and carefree.

Unfortunately, because of that humiliating fight, he spent the whole time looking back at the captured image stone, and luckily watched countless replays of Lin Qi fighting against the gray-cloaked cultivator.

The vivid contrast, each stimulating word a blow, completely dissipated the restlessness in his heart.

Whether it was intentional or not, whenever Lin Qi hinted at something, he would start practicing diligently.

Yuan Xi Shijie saw this scene and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

After leaving Long Lei Peak, Luo Ci did seem a little adrift. She wasn't a strict person and wasn't good at managing things harshly.

If it weren't for Lin Qi beside her, drumming his fingers on the table, she truly worried about returning to Zhong Lei Peak and facing her master.

Seeing Lo Ci's diligence in cultivation, the members of the Luo family were secretly excited. In just a few days, word of Lo Ci's hard work and perseverance spread throughout the clan.

When the head of the Luo family heard these words, he couldn't help but weep with emotion. He was so moved that he personally came out to greet them.

Lin Qi only learned after coming to Los Angeles how deep the roots of the Nan Zhou Luo family, one of the five great families, truly were.

All previous mayors of Luo City were appointed by the head of the Luo family and had to be descendants of the Luo family.

With Los Angeles as the center, almost all the surrounding cities are under the control of the Luo family.

Compared to others, Lin Qi's family from this desolate village is indeed a small operation.

"Mother!" Luo Ci rushed out upon seeing the head of the Luo family, excitedly running and directly hugging the head of the Luo family's legs.

The head of the Luo family was a kind and gentle woman, with a smile that was very approachable.

She single-handedly lifted Luo Ci, took a good look at him, and laughed in praise: "Good boy, not bad! In less than two months since becoming my disciple, you have already reached the fourth level of Qi training. It seems that letting you worship Qing Yun Zhenjun as your master was a very right choice."

Lin Qi silently retracted the words "kind" and "gentle."

She followed Yuanshi to greet the Lord of Luo, and was warmly welcomed by the hospitable Lord of Luo, who insisted on having her stay at his home.

The head of the Luo family looked at Lin Qi, his eyes especially scorching.

When Luo Zhu learned that Lin Qi was Luo Ci's senior sister, the head of the Luo family slapped Luo Ci's buttocks.

"You slacked off during your cultivation in the sect, didn't you!"

Lady Luo had a smile on her face, but through Luo Ci's howl you could tell how hard she'd hit him.

Luo Ci struggled with her legs, feeling utterly wronged.

"I tried, but I didn't succeed!"

He was so angry he screamed, "I couldn't even sleep in the sect! Every day I open my eyes to cultivate, and when I close them I still cultivate. I'm practically a cultivation maniac!"

Yuan Xi, the senior sister, felt sympathy and tried to help him out of the predicament.

"Luo Mu, my sister Xia Qi and I can testify that the Third Disciple practiced very diligently when he was at Zhong Lei Peak. Otherwise, he wouldn't have broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refinement so quickly."

The younger sister of the poem master stood firm, her chest puffed out. "That's right! Mother, you don't make any sense!"

Who knew that as soon as the head of the Luo family heard this, he let out a cold snort. "That's it! You started slacking off the moment you left the sect! What kind of person are you, I still don't know Without anyone keeping you in check, you're a wild horse running amok, no one can control you!"

Luo Ci suddenly thought of the embarrassing things that happened on the road and didn't dare to struggle anymore. He obediently stood up straight like a corpse, letting his mother toss him around.

Later, the head of the Luo family found out the truth somehow, and Luo Ci still couldn't escape a beating.

Lin Qi was practicing swordplay in the courtyard late at night, when Luo Ci let out a sudden and sharp scream, which startled her so much that she almost dropped her sword.

Yuan Xi shijie walked out of the room slowly, lifting her eyes to look at the round moon in the sky.

She, who has always been gentle and radiant, now carries a touch of paleness and solitude. Her eyes reveal envy mingled with a faint sadness.

Lin Qi looked at her with distress: "Sister, what's wrong"

Yuan Xi, the senior sister, gently smiled and softly touched Lin Qi's head with her hand.

"It's nothing, just remembering some old things."

Lin Qi felt the smile in her eyes was like a flower in a mirror and the moon in water, shattering at the slightest touch.

The howling of words by the ear was incessant, occasionally accompanied by the imposing reprimands of Lord Luo's voice.

It seems like the Spirit Stone has been found. The head of the Luo Family, after seeing it, held Luo Ci's ear and taught him how to deal with it.

Of course, there's bound to be chaos.

Lin Qi looked at Yuan Xi's expression, it seemed to be a touch of nostalgia. He then put away his small wooden sword.

"Sister, we will set off for Meng City tomorrow."

“We are here to accomplish a mission, but now we spend our days lounging at Luo Ci’s house, eating and drinking. I feel very embarrassed.”

As Lin Qi spoke, she also passed a handkerchief to Yuan Xi, her senior sister, and skillfully raised her head.robed Taoist stroked his duster, a fleeting look of suspicion crossing his face as he observed Lin Qi's actions. He suspected that something had gone wrong with the operation below and they had been d...
