My Master Knows It All

202: Chapter 129 Don’t Leave After School_2 202: Chapter 129 Don’t Leave After School_2 Li Ke, how did she end up choosing Cao Zhen!

Tu Zhuque’s expression was complex as she looked at Cao Zhen, her brows knitting and then relaxing in turns.

She hadn’t felt this conflicted in many years.

Had it been before, she would never have agreed to Li Ke choosing Cao Zhen as her Dao companion.

Could Cao Zhen be worthy of her family’s Li Ke?

But now the situation was different.

If one were to say Cao Zhen was unworthy of Li Ke, Cao Zhen had nonetheless started to rise to power.

Her Vermilion Bird Peak also had disciples within the Hidden Dragon Immortal Palace, and disciples who could enter the Hidden Dragon Observatory.

According to her disciples, three out of the four disciples of Cao Zhen had become the Hidden Dragon Three Sons.

Even the one who had not become one of the Hidden Dragon Three Sons was hailed as the strongest below them.

Everyone knew that the upcoming re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks was bound to be different.

Four Treasures Peak would no longer rank last as it had before; it had begun its rise.

Moreover, today Cao Zhen had heavily slapped Chen Qingluan’s face for her.

But did that mean Cao Zhen was now worthy of Li Ke?

She still thought Cao Zhen fell short by quite a bit.

Her Vermilion Bird Peak’s Li Ke was exceptionally outstanding, not long into her immortal cultivation, yet already possessing ten Perfect Completion Golden Cores, each one a Golden Core of visions.

After the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth began, and once the masters entered their slumbers, Li Ke would inevitably become one of the strongest among her peers.

Cao Zhen, however, hadn’t even condensed a Golden Core yet.

Moreover, Cao Zhen’s reputation wasn’t very good now; he was even called one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils.

This… Cao Zhen, forget it; she should first ask Li Ke about her progress with him.

Tu Zhuque thought for a moment and then said to Cao Zhen, “After the Golden Core Club meeting is over, don’t leave.

I have some matters to discuss with you.”

Cao Zhen felt helpless.

Why is everyone looking for me to discuss matters?

“Little Sixth Son, you’re quite popular, huh?

Come on, let’s eat first.

Heaven and Earth may be vast, but the stomach is paramount.

Let’s go, go, go.” BeiChen Ying dragged Cao Zhen towards the Four Treasures Peak’s spot, and as they walked, he transmitted a message to Cao Zhen, “Little Sixth Son, that pill was refined by you, right?

You say, now that I’m your fifth brother, when are you going to teach me alchemy?

No need for other pills, just that Cycle of Nirvana Pill will do.

Don’t worry, after I’ve refined it well, I definitely won’t cheat your maternal home.

I’ll sell it secretly to Azure Pheasant Peak.”

“Later, we’ll talk about it when there’s time.

For now, let’s discuss the imminent re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks,” Cao Zhen said without any surprise.

BeiChen Ying had seen him practicing alchemy; if he couldn’t guess that the pill was made by him, he would really have doubted BeiChen Ying’s intelligence.

They hadn’t walked far when they returned to Four Treasures Peak’s table.

Cao Zhen hadn’t yet spoken when the usually reticent Ru Wenlin gently opened his mouth to ask, “Now that you’re with us, you’ve indeed solidified your reputation as one of the Six Evils.

Yet you seem very calm about it.

Aren’t you worried about anything?

After all, our reputations are not that great.”

“Reputation?

That’s just other people’s opinions.

How much is a reputation worth these days?” Cao Zhen scoffed, “Before, our Four Treasures Peak had a good reputation, right?

But did you see us live well?

Now, although my reputation is bad, at least our Four Treasures Peak is living better than before, and my disciples have also become much stronger.

Moreover, being called Five Evils or Six Evils doesn’t necessarily mean one is a bad person.

Now, even though I am called one of the Six Evils, I don’t consider myself an atrocious villain, and you all don’t seem like bad people either.”

Cao Zhen paused for a moment and pointed in the direction Bai Fengzi had left earlier, “Besides, our Hundred Peaks Sect has its rules.

If you really had done something outrageous, would the Sect Leader True Person have let you live until today?

Today, the Sect Leader True Person would have seen you as well, yet she said nothing, which clearly indicates that you haven’t done anything excessive.

At most, you’ve deceived others a bit, and somehow, as it was spread around, the reputations turned sour.”

“Right, Sixth Brother, you’re absolutely correct!” Li Lingwei slammed the table and exclaimed, “Just like me, if I really were that evil, could I still be in the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace?

Could I still be an elder?

It’s just that those people don’t understand us.

We all grew up in the Hundred Peaks Sect, our roots are in the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Could it be that we don’t love the Hundred Peaks Sect?

It’s just that we show our love for the Hundred Peaks Sect in different ways than others, so we are misunderstood.

In fact, when the eldest brother asked you earlier, he also wanted to tell you, don’t take pride in being one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils, don’t use this reputation to commit heinous acts.

If so, we five will be the first to not forgive you.

We, too, love the Hundred Peaks Sect and wish for its prosperity.

We hope you feel the same.”

While Cao Zhen gently filled the cup in front of him, he said, “Actually, there’s no need to say these things to me.

Because, I am indeed the Peak Master of one of the peaks within the Hundred Peaks Sect.

I hope for my Four Treasures Peak to be better, and of course, I wish for the Hundred Peaks Sect to be better as well.”

“That’s the spirit!

Old Six’s character is still impeccable, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to bring Old Six into our circle.” BeiChen Ying appropriately raised his cup and downed it in one gulp, adding, “Now, shall we discuss how to make money?”

Cao Zhen looked around and indicated to the others, “There are too many people here; let’s go outside to discuss the re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks.”

“No need for the hassle.” Zhong Xinyi raised her hand to pull off a pearl hanging around her neck, placed it on the table, and with a flick of her finger, a spell entered the pearl.

A nearly invisible barrier rose around them, “There, Sixth Brother, speak your mind.”
