Wasting Money to Become an Immortal-Chapter 231: Most popular

From what I could hear, it seemed that the Star Peak Sect was quite popular.

However, everyone acted like they didn’t hear anything.

They were from what was considered a large and powerful sect, so it wasn’t as if they could act the way that they wanted.

They had to at least act the way that everyone expected them to act.

It was just that I could see that there were traces of excitement in everyone’s eyes when they heard these whispers around us.

It seemed that no one was able to resist the feeling of pride that came from being recognized.

But they had to at least act like they were aloof since they were from a prestigious sect.

It really was funny seeing them act this way.

I was the only one that didn’t care since I was a prodigal young master in the first place.

I just acted the same way that I normally did and no one cared since they already knew that this was my personality in the first place. It wasn’t something that anyone could change, even Liu Ao Xue was helpless when it came to this.

After landing, the Great Elder said, "You’re free to move around how you will. We’ll meet back here in a week."

Then without a care, he disappeared.

It was as if he had only come to drop us off, or rather he just came to abandon us here.

Though we all knew that he wouldn’t have gone that far away.

The elders that came with us were still here after all.

The Great Elder also seemed to like acting as he was doing all of this to seem aloof to the people around us.

I couldn’t help finding it even funnier seeing this.

It seemed that everyone was doing all that they could to act like a prestigious high grade sect in front of others.

Perhaps this was just the pressure that came from being a part of a high grade sect like the Star Peak Sect.

In any case, it didn’t matter to me since most people didn’t seem to care about me.

Or that would have been the case if it wasn’t for...

Since we were on our own now, we were able to do what we wanted to do.

The first thing that happened was that everyone split off into groups.

There was the option to go in alone, but there was still some danger in this place even if we were all disciples of a high ranking sect. Not just from the spirit beasts that dwelled in this place, but also from the humans that entered this place.

After all, there was nothing more terrifying than the darkness that dwelled in a person’s heart.

Greed made people do some crazy things.

So it was safer to team up and go in with other disciples.

This really wasn’t a problem for the Star Peak Sect since the relationship between disciples was quite harmonious.

It didn’t take long before many different groups were formed based on friend groups.

But during that time, there was no one that came to invite us.

Perhaps it was because they thought that we would form a group on our own already...or that was what I thought.

Only when everyone finished forming their groups did they turn their attention to me.

"Junior brother, come with us!"

"No, no, junior brother, you should come with us!"

"Junior brother, come with senior sister. I’ll take care of you!"

"More like you’ll try to do something behind Xue’er’s back! Aren’t you shameless?"

It seemed like they were fighting for me to join their group.

Well, not really fighting since it didn’t become that heated, but they were certainly arguing with each other on whose team I should join.

I could see that the elders were pretending like they didn’t see a thing.

But the most burning gazes were coming from the others around us.

When they saw all of these disciples from the prestigious Star Peak Sect acting this way, they couldn’t help being stunned. After all, they didn’t recognize the person that they were all fighting for to join their group.

Could it be that there was a new famous person from the Star Peak Sect that they didn’t know? 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Most people knew about the famous young geniuses of the large sects since they didn’t want to risk offending one by accident. That was a path of certain death, so it was better to at least know how one might die...

But there wasn’t a single person that was able to recognize the person that all of these disciples surrounded.

It was as if this person had popped out of thin air...

That was until there was someone who recognized him.

Or rather, they recognized Liu Ao Xue, which resulted in them recognizing me.

"Isn’t that the saintess of the Star Peak Sect, Liu Ao Xue? If that person is with her, then he must be that man!"

"He’s the one that beat up all of those suitors of hers!"

"He’s also the one that won the alchemy tournament that the Central Sect Alliance held!"

It seemed that when the news about me spread, it wasn’t spread in a way that everyone recognized me.

Rather, it was spread in a way that made it seem like I was nothing more than Liu Ao Xue’s man...

So it was Liu Ao Xue that they recognized and not me...

"System, is this really being famous?" I had to ask this since the mission before was raising my reputation.

If they didn’t even know my name or my appearance, was that still considered my reputation?

"They are aware of the host, so it counts."

"He, he." I couldn’t help giving a bitter laugh when I heard this, but I didn’t say anything in response.

Well, it didn’t really matter if they recognized me as Liu Ao Xue’s man rather than as my own person.

After all, it wasn’t as if I was insecure enough that I cared about something like that.
