My Master Knows It All

614: 2013 614: 2013 If the Grand Preceptor had not eradicated the old lair of the Red Refinery Demonic Sect back then, and if the remnants of the sect held a grudge, why wouldn’t they remember to hate me?

Moreover, if they plan to stir trouble, they would definitely act beforehand to eliminate those with extreme combat prowess before the arrival of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth.

He would bet that if Xiang Ziyu went out on a spree, the people of the Red Refinery Demonic Sect would definitely launch a direct attack on him.

“Then…then I choose to return to the Hundred Peaks Sect,” Xiang Ziyu made his choice instantly.

Staying in the Capital City would mean his master would definitely watch over him.

If he returned to the Hundred Peaks Sect and then went out, who would be there to keep an eye on him?

Seeing that his fellow disciples had already expressed their intentions, Little Beiyan also opened his mouth and said, “Master, I…

I’ll just go back with my senior brother.

I’ll help you keep an eye on him and prevent him from running around when he gets back.

He’s definitely thinking about slipping away.”

“You…you think you can keep an eye on him?” Cao Zhen turned to Lv Chaoqiong and requested, “Elder Lv, I would be grateful if you could keep an eye on that kid Xiang Ziyu when you return, so he does not run around everywhere.

Of course, I know Elder Lv has many matters to attend to.

After you return, could you please find those five and have them watch over Xiang Ziyu?”

Xiang Ziyu’s face immediately darkened.

Little Beiyan, it was this guy again.

If it weren’t for his meddling, how would his master think to have someone monitor him?

Lv Chaoqiong nodded lightly and replied, “Don’t worry, I will watch over him.

I will also inform the five of them.” She knew the five that Peak Master Cao referred to were naturally the Five Evils of Hundred Peaks.

After speaking, she then turned to look at Gu Chengyu and discussed, “Elder Gu, now that our Hundred Peaks Sect has made a big splash at the Immortal Martial Gathering, I fear many will be targeting us.

This time, with you staying behind to protect Peak Master Cao and ensure his safe return, how does that sound?”

Gu Chengyu immediately nodded, about to agree, when Ai Yunqi’s voice came through from the side.

“There’s no need to trouble Elder Gu.

I will be staying behind this time.

Moreover, I plan to notify my senior brother.

This time, I’ll have my senior brother come here on behalf of the Hundred Peaks Sect to present a congratulatory gift.

Then, we will return to the Hundred Peaks Sect with him.

Elder Lv, you can rest assured.”

Lv Chaoqiong was taken aback, “Elder Ai’s senior brother?

You’re inviting Qiu Peak Master to come here?

He’s the Peak Master of Five Elements Peak, he…”

At this point in time, the Peak Masters above Earth Immortal Realm would rarely travel far, as they have too many matters to entrust to others.

Let alone the Five Elements Peak within the Hundred Peaks Sect, ranked second!

Although Five Elements Peak wasn’t the One Peak, its disciples were the most numerous among all the peaks of the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Qiu Peak Master had more matters to entrust than other Peak Masters.

At this time, why would Elder Ai Yunqi invite Qiu Peak Master to come?

“I have an urgent matter that requires consultation with my senior brother.

As for the affairs of Five Elements Peak, others will assist him in handling them,” Ai Yunqi said, her gaze briefly sweeping over Yan Yourong.

If Yan Yourong, along with everyone else, returned to the Hundred Peaks Sect, she wouldn’t stay behind, but would rather have Gu Chengyu protect Peak Master Cao and others.

But with Yan Yourong staying and then going to the Capital City, who knows how much time would pass by then.

By that time, there wouldn’t be much left for her senior brother.

Thus, she had no choice but to have her senior brother come to the Capital City ahead of time.

The group quickly finished discussing their plans.

Except for Ai Yunqi, Cao Zhen, Ling Xi, Yan Yourong, and Yi Sheng, the members of the Hundred Peaks Sect set off today to return to their sect.

Cao Zhen and others stayed at Yi Mansion with Ai Yunqi.

Although Cao Zhen and his disciples had previously blown up quite a few rooms in Yi Mansion, the mansion was so large that finding another room was certainly not a problem.

Not long after Cao Zhen returned to Yi Mansion, someone informed him that the Grand Preceptor was looking for him.

He once again entered the Grand Preceptor’s ancient residence.

Inside the residence, under the grapevine trellis.

The Grand Preceptor had already set out the tea set, quietly sipping tea.

In his previous life, Cao Zhen did not study tea much, nor did he drink it often.

But now, he had acquired a considerable understanding of tea and had become accustomed to drinking tea.

Seeing Cao Zhen’s arrival, the Grand Preceptor did not say anything but simply gestured to the seat opposite him.

Cao Zhen did not hesitate and directly sat down.

He picked up the teacup and lightly sipped, praising, “This tea is excellent, it’s even more to my taste than the one I had here before.”

“If you like it, take a cake of it with you when you leave,” the Grand Preceptor said, then looked up at Cao Zhen, “I predicted that you could claim the title of State Preceptor, but I didn’t expect you to defeat Hao Yue in such a manner.”

“Oh?

The Grand Preceptor thinks even more highly of me now?” Cao Zhen looked curiously at the Grand Preceptor.

If not for the fact Hao Yue had been injured earlier, and his two disciples, Ling Xi and Xiang Ziyu, had destroyed one of Hao Yue’s treasures and one Divine Weapon, and if he had not connected with Hao Yue, he might truly have been defeated.

He was curious why the Grand Preceptor thought highly of him.

The Grand Preceptor said calmly, “Naturally, I think more highly of you, otherwise, I would not have made a heavy bet on you to win the championship.”

“That person was you?

You bet as well?”

A look of astonishment appeared on Cao Zhen’s face.

Originally, when the Grand Preceptor publicly declared him as Core Formation Stage, his odds had instantly risen a lot.

At the time, he intended to have Yi Sheng bet all of his remaining wealth on his victory.

Unfortunately, when Yi Sheng went to do so, his odds changed.
