The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 718 - 240: Are You the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown? Immortal Xuan You Is Getting Anxious (6k)

In those days, when the Five Sects united to ambush a million demon beasts on Canglan Mountain, these four represented the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect.

Just like our own Supreme Elder, they are all at the Great Perfection of the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Seeing Li Bin, who wore an ashamed expression and quietly retreated, Zhou Qing instantly understood what had happened.

When faced with Zhou Qing's questions, an old woman surprisingly burst into hearty laughter.

After laughing, she began to explain, "Actually, when we learned that you successfully broke through to the Divinity Transformation Realm, we wanted to invite you over. However, you were always in seclusion cultivating, making it difficult to find an opportunity. In desperation, we resorted to this plan."

Zhou Qing's expression remained calm, but he secretly used a secret technique to quickly send a message to his third senior brother.

But soon, his face changed drastically.

One of the old women softly said, "Don't waste your effort. As an Array Master, you should sense that this place has been sealed by our prohibition array, and no information can be sent out."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing's expression grew even more unsightly.

In a deep voice, he said, "Elders, I do not know how I've offended the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect to make you go through so much trouble. Even if I were to die, I plead that you give me a clear reason."

The four old women slightly shook their heads, a touch of amusement in their eyes.

"It's not about offense. In the battle of the Five Sects, you were so outstanding that you slew the five great geniuses of the Cangyan Daoist Palace and topped the must-kill list."

"It's countless of our Three Families Alliance's younger generation that you've inspired. We couldn't thank you enough."

Another old woman jumped in, "Indeed, we're here to ask for a favor from you this time!"

Zhou Qing's gaze was steady as he briefly pondered before asking, "What favor? I hope the elders could enlighten me."

"It's definitely something beneficial, so we trouble you to come with us," the old woman teased, not answering directly.

Zhou Qing frowned, his wariness growing stronger, and he bluntly said, "What if I'm unwilling?"

One of the old women tensed up, her tone turning stern, "Then don't blame us for being disrespectful, and we'll have to employ some harsh methods to persuade you to come."

Zhou Qing let out a cold snort, clearly aware of their unfriendly intentions.

In the next moment, he suddenly looked ahead, delighted, and loudly shouted, "Master, the disciple has successfully lured them out."

However, the four old women appeared unfazed, their faces still carrying faint smiles.

Such blatant bluffing tactics, they'd used and seen many times in their youth, so naturally, they wouldn't fall for it.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing hesitated no more, furiously circulating his spiritual power, a layer of golden light enveloping him all over.

Just as he was about to execute the Golden Roc True Body to make his escape using the Roc's speed, a numbing sensation suddenly crept up his neck.

Zhou Qing realized something was wrong.

Subsequently, he saw a thumb-sized Gu insect resembling a thin porcelain figurine, waving a dandelion fluff at the end of its short legs, gently brushing his skin.

"Sleep Gu—" these words flashed through Zhou Qing's mind.

Upon that, his vision blacked out, and his whole body plummeted straight from the air.

Li Bin, seeing this, was quick-witted, hurriedly using his body technique to catch Zhou Qing steadily.

"You've done well with this task. After this, you won't need to return to the Taiqing Sect!" the old woman said, looking at Li Bin with satisfaction.

Li Bin glanced complexly at the unconscious Zhou Qing in his arms, then at the four old women, hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Though I joined the Taiqing Sect as an undercover agent years ago, after so many years together, I've long regarded it as my second home."

"Ancestor, we agreed that you wouldn't harm his life, only asking for his help."

The four old women frowned slightly at this.

One of them spoke up, "Don't forget, it was the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect that saved your entire family's life back then."

Li Bin lowered his head and said, "I won't forget that debt of gratitude, but—"

"There's no 'but.' Rest assured, we're truly here to ask the kid for help, offering him a great opportunity," an old woman interjected, cutting Li Bin off.

Seeing this, Li Bin couldn't say much more.

This place wasn't suitable for prolonged stay. With the night deep and dark, the five of them quietly left immediately.

...

Zhou Qing did not know how long he had slept, only that his head felt woozy, waves of throbbing pain assaulting him.

Only after a great effort did he slowly open his eyes.

As he gradually regained clarity, he immediately recalled something, flipping up instantly. But because his body had yet to recover, the piercing pain forced him to stifle a groan.

"Damn Sleep Gu—"

Zhou Qing cursed, truly caught off guard this time.

After swiftly circulating his spiritual power, he felt slightly more at ease.

Then, forcing himself to endure the pain, he examined his surroundings.

The room was tastefully decorated, with several landscape paintings exuding profound realms hanging on the walls, and on a nearby desk lay brushes, ink, paper, and an incense burner emitting thin wisps of smoke.

At this moment, the room's door opened.

Subsequently, a female figure, bearing three long swords on her back, entered.

In her hand, she steadily held a wooden tray, on which were placed several delicate snacks and a bowl of spirit porridge, along with a dish of vibrantly colored vegetables.

"Zhu He!"

Upon seeing her, Zhou Qing couldn't help but frown.

It appeared he was now likely at the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect.

After placing the tray on the table, Zhu He turned around.

Just as Zhou Qing was about to question angrily, Zhu He's expression changed dramatically, quickly scanning the room with disbelief in her eyes.

She swiftly took out a Communication Jade Scroll, "Supreme Elder, something's wrong, Zhou Qing is gone!"
