My Master Knows It All-Chapter 190 - 127 Accidental Focus_1

The "Five Evils of the Hundred Peaks Sect" had existed for many years, and everyone had grown accustomed to the term "Five Evils of Hundred Peaks."

All of a sudden, the "Five Evils of Hundred Peaks" became the "Six Evils of Hundred Peaks," and to everyone’s surprise, they didn’t feel the slightest bit uncomfortable; it seemed as if it was only natural.

"I’ve always said that Cao Zhen was close to Beichen Ying. His becoming the sixth evil is nothing surprising," someone said.

"A Peak Master becoming one of the Six Evils, truly a disgrace to his ancestors," another remarked disdainfully.

"Our Hundred Peaks Sect has actually produced such six individuals."

"Alas, times have changed..."

Cao Zhen, hearing the mocking voices around him, didn’t care at all and sat down beside Beichen Ying. What did the terms "Five Evils" or "Six Evils" of Hundred Peaks matter? In this day and age, what use was reputation? As long as there were benefits, what did it matter if people called him one of the "Six Evils of Hundred Peaks"?

By becoming one of the "Six Evils," he at least had an easier time obtaining the last of the sixty-four Ling Xi Talismans from Wu Jinhuan.

"Azure Pheasant Peak’s Peak Master Chen, bringing her Disciple Qu Qingqing and the Four Extremes Sect’s Disciple Shi Xiaolou, has arrived to give congratulations," announced a voce.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the direction of the entrance, second only to the volume of the arrival of the Sect Leader himself.

In the courtyard, everyone’s gaze turned towards the entrance.

Within the entire Hundred Peaks Sect, who didn’t know that Vermilion Bird Peak and Azure Pheasant Peak, these two peaks among the top ten, were always in competition? The Peak Masters of the two peaks had been rivals for a lifetime. Initially, when they were both disciples, they competed in who had the higher cultivation base. Later, when they both became the Peak Masters of their respective peaks, they began to compete through their disciples.

Even many said that Chief Tu Zhuque organized the Golden Core Club just to provoke Peak Master Chen Qingluan—the main guest has finally arrived, and the drama begins.

At the entrance, the Peak Masters of Wonderful Pen Peak and Immortal Pen Peak were busy congratulating Chief Tu Zhuque and Li Ke, attempting to ingratiate themselves. Upon hearing the words "Azure Pheasant Peak," they hesitated for not even a moment, and quickly spoke up.

"Chief Tu, please go ahead with your business first," they said.

"Chief Tu, we’ll head inside first."

Chief Tu Zhuque’s eyes had already fixed on the three individuals who were approaching from the door.

Chen Qingluan’s makeup was immaculate, wearing a long, green dress, she seemed like a fairy stepped out of a painting, with a gentle smile on her face as she moved in an unusually composed and elegant manner.

From afar, many were already whispering among themselves.

"Peak Master Chen also has this side to her?" freewёbnoνel.com

"You’re fussing over nothing. The last time, during her Disciple Qu Qingqing’s Taoist companionship ceremony, Peak Master Chen was just as elegant."

"It’s not just Peak Master Chen. When Chief Tu attended the ceremony, she dressed to the nines and stole quite a bit of the spotlight from Peak Master Chen. Now, it seems Peak Master Chen has come to steal the show from Chief Tu," someone else commented.

"They’re not trying to outshine each other just for the sake of it. You probably don’t know the Peak Masters’ favorite phrase.

’I, Tu Zhuque (Chen Qingluan), have never been inferior to anyone in my life!’ This statement is merely a pointed reference to each other," explained another voice.

"Is that the one behind Peak Master Chen, Qu Qingqing’s Taoist companion, Shi Xiaolou?" someone asked.

"That’s right. Among the Four Extremes of the Four Extremes Sect—Calligraphy, Painting, Poetry, and Music—Shi Xiaolou is known for both Calligraphy and Painting, earning him the nickname ’Little Dual Extremes.’ He is quite famous among the younger generation."

"Qu Qingqing is also outstanding among the younger generation of our Hundred Peaks Sect. The two of them making Taoist companions is truly a good match," said another.

"A fine match indeed, this is what true fate looks like."

"Shi Xiaolou truly has an impressive appearance."

Hearing the praises of the crowd not far away, Chen Qingluan’s smile became even more radiant. She congratulated Chief Tu Zhuque, saying, "Congratulations are in order for Li Ke’s breakthrough to the Perfect Completion Golden Core Stage."

Chief Tu Zhuque’s eyebrows rose slightly. What did she mean, ’congratulations are in order’? If you’re going to congratulate, then congratulate properly. Chen Qingluan must be jealous—that’s for certain.

Feeling delighted, she replied, "Indeed, congratulations are due, but not just for Vermilion Bird Peak, but for our entire Hundred Peaks Sect. After all, our Li Ke has fully dedicated himself to cultivation and has finally achieved Perfect Completion Golden Core Stage. When the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth arrives and the darkest moments that follow our slumber begin, those few decades of utmost chaos will rely on our Li Ke."

As she spoke, Chief Tu looked over her shoulder at Qu Qingqing and Shi Xiaolou standing together, her tone carrying a hint of sarcasm, "It’s just a pity that your Azure Pheasant Peak’s Qu Qingqing also had potential. But you people from Azure Pheasant Peak are only ever concerned with love affairs and neglect cultivation. I heard that Qu Qingqing has simply fused her nine Golden Cores and completed the final Pill Fusion, right?

Ah, what a waste. With her talent, she should have completed the Pill Fusion with a complete set of ten Golden Cores to reach Great Perfection. Instead, she has a master who’s inept at teaching, and the disciple suffers as a result."

After forming nine Golden Cores, the last step of the Golden Core Stage is to fuse the nine cores into a larger, singular Golden Core.

However, the perfect achievement is to form ten Golden Cores and then to undergo Pill Fusion. That is the true Perfect Completion Golden Core. But for most people, it’s impossible to take that step and create ten Golden Cores—they can only undergo Pill Fusion at nine Golden Cores.

Listening to Chief Tu Zhuque’s mocking words, Chen Qingluan was not angered at all. She even nodded and said, "That’s right, our Qingqing did not do Pill Fusion with ten Golden Cores. But she has found an excellent Taoist companion."

Looking proudly at Shi Xiaolou standing behind Qu Qingqing, she boasted, "Now that the two of them are Taoist companions, as their master, I should give them something special. Fortunately, I came across a dual cultivation technique many years ago called the ’Mandarin Duck Entangled Secret.’
