Chapter 855 Meeting Chu Yang For The First Time



"Amazing! So, this is the place where people go to fight with each other?"

"Yes, the Combat Hall is the place where the disciples and elders spar with each other. Of course, its not the only place they spar and fight with each other in the sect, as there is still a lot of different training grounds that they also use for this. The Combat Hall just happens to be the most used place for this."

"I see… Guess I will also visit this place in the future…"

"Indeed. Although you still have some time before that, as you need to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm before being able to use the Combat Hall."

At the same time Xuan Hao finished up his conversation with Elder Song and Feng Chen, Qing Yi and Mui had both come to a stop in front of the Combat Hall as Qing Yi was introducing the place and answering any questions Mui had. Acting like a perfect guide for her new junior sister.

It was just at this moment when Qing Yi and Mui were about to turn around and continue off towards the next location, that Chu Yang walked out from the Combat Hall filled with energy, while an exhausted elder could be seen leaving together with him.

Even if Qing Yi did not know for certain what had happened during the fight between Chu Yang and this elder, it was rather obvious that Chu Yang should have been the one to come out ahead. Considering that this elder had reached the Fourth Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, this was more than enough for one to understand just how strong the current Chu Yang was compared to other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators at the same cultivation realm!

"S-senior sister, who is that…?" Feeling Chu Yang' looking over in their direction, Mui could not help shivering as she hid behind Qing Yi while asking this. Not something odd considering how fierce the current Chu Yang looked just after a fight with a powerful Nascent Soul Realm elder of the sect.

Even if Chu Yang was not intentionally trying to scare her, his battle intent was far too intense for someone who had just recently taken their first step on the path of cultivation and was still only in the Qi Condensation Realm.

"Hah… that person is unfortunately one of your senior brothers…"

"One of my senior brothers!? I-Is he dangerous…?" Nodding her head as she said this while still hiding herself behind Qing Yi, Mui could not help inspecting the scary young man that had just come out of the Combat Hall before starting to move in their direction.

"Haha, no need to worry about him. Although he might look like a brute that loves fighting all the time at first glance, he is not scary at all. On the contrary, he is quite kind when you get to know him." Not able to stop herself from laughing after hearing what Mui said, Qing Yi did her best to reassure her that Chu Yang was not dangerous.

"Brute!? What do you mean with that Qing Yi?!" Getting close enough just in time to hear Qing Yi calling him a brute, Chu Yang rushed over to the two, but quickly came to a stop upon noticing Mui who was standing right next to Qing Yi.

"And who is this- Ah! Is this perhaps our new junior sister?" Even if he was angry at Qing Yi, Chu Yang still managed to compose himself upon seeing the young Mui next to her. Taking no more than a few seconds to realize that she was the new junior sister that Qing Yi had mentioned to him before he had gone in to fight with the elder in the Fourth Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm earlier.

"G-Greetings senior brother, m-my name is M-Mui…!" Seeing the Chu Yang was looking towards her, Mui hid herself even more behind Qing Yi before nervously introducing herself to the best of her ability.

"Greetings Mui, my name is Chu Yang and I'm the second disciple of master. If you ever encounter any problems, you can always come to me and don't listen to what Qing Yi said, I'm not a brute, I just spent most of my time training in the Combat Hall." Trying his best to reassure Mui that he was not someone dangerous while introducing himself, Chu Yang only ended up making the young girl more afraid after mentioning that he spent all his time in the Combat Hall.

After all, even if Mui did not know a lot about the Star Shattering Sect yet, she had just found out that the Combat Hall was a place that people went to fight with each other to improve themselves. Spending a bit of time training there would be fine… But being there all the time? Mui could not help feeling that her senior sister's describing him as a brute that loved fighting all the time was correct.

As for him not being scary and instead being a kind person? Mui felt she would need some time to properly interact with this senior brother before finding out whether this was true…

"This… Qing Yi, you two are on a tour of the sect. Right?" 

"Yes."

"Great, I just happen to have finished up my fight with the elder I had been looking for. So, I will be joining both of you!"

Realizing that his new junior sister had formed a bad first impression of him from the way she was still hiding behind Qing Yi, Chu Yang did not waste a second before saying this. Fully intend on joining the two during their tour through the sect. Hopefully being able to change his new little junior sister's opinion on him during this period of time.

"…"

Knowing what Chu Yang was intending to do, Qing Yi did not say anything and just looked towards Mui who was hiding behind her to see her reaction after hearing that Chu Yang would be following them during their tour through the sect. If she was uncomfortable about it, she would make sure to refuse Chu Yang and find some other way that Mui would be less afraid of Chu Yang.

Luckily for Chu Yang, Qing Yi's worry was for nothing, and Mui did not seem to mind the fact that Chu Yang would be coming along with them. Even if she was still hiding behind Qing Yi, it was mostly due to the battle intent that Chu Yang had been releasing ever since leaving the Combat Hall. At least now, it seemed like he had reigned it in and no longer seemed as scary as before to Mui.

"Now that you already met the first of your two senior brothers, how about we go visit the second one?"

"Second senior brother? Yes! Let's go visit him, I really want to see what my second senior brother is like!"

Hearing Qing Yi's suggestion of going to see the final disciple under her master that she had yet to see, Mui nodded her head excitedly. Even if her first senior brother was not a handsome older brother like she had first expected him to be, there was still one more senior brother that she had not seen yet!

"Great, then let's get going! If I'm not wrong, we should still be able to find him at the Sea of a Thousand Furnaces where he spends most of his time refining artifacts."

"My second senior brother is a blacksmith that refines artifact!? The powerful artifacts that are used by cultivators to fight and do all kinds of amazing things!?"

"Yes, he is. Not only that, but your second senior brother, Bai Ning, can be considered the most talented blacksmith among the younger generation of the Star Shattering Sect. Even surpassing some of the elders!"

"Wow…" Hearing about her second senior brother who was called Bai Ning, Mui could not help showing a look of adoration on her face.

Even if she did not know a lot about artifacts that cultivators used when fighting and doing all kinds of amazing things she could only have dreamt about before becoming a disciple of the Star Shattering Sect, Mui had still heard a fair bit during her time as an orphan. Back then, most of the orphans, including herself, dreamt about obtaining a powerful artifact that would help them on to the path of cultivation or at the very least out of their current identity as orphans.

It was also for this reason that Mui herself was filled with both awe and adoration after hearing that her second senior brother was someone who refined the powerful artifacts she had heard about during her time as an orphan.

As for how strong her second senior brother was… Mui had automatically placed him above that of her first senior brother, Chu Yang. After all, one spent all his time fighting people in the Combat Hall, while the other refined powerful and mystical artifacts that was the stuff of legends in her eyes!
