Ancestor Yuan De (Part 1)

Random person: “Ancestor Yuan De is Daoist Yuan Hua?”Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m

Mu Yu’s remark triggered a wave of comments. He had trouble adjusting to the elder for Elder Leng he knew was fundamentally a different person all together; even the way he dressed was atypical of himself. Ku Mu didn’t even spare the elder a look, when he would’ve been in Elder Leng’s face already.

“You want to ruin Pill Cauldron Sect’s reputation?”

“Yes, it is him. The ignorant miscreant is maligning us and challenging our authority. Ancestor, I do not know what shabby sect he is fr-” Ji Liangcai informed.

“Ignorant miscreant? Shabby sect? Shut your trap! Have you not embarrassed yourself enough? Have you any idea who he is?” snapped Elder Leng, scowling.

Ji Liangcai’s brows popped up.

“He is Pill Cauldron Sect’s Bamboo Peak’s new master, Mu Yu. Which shabby sect were you just talking about?” reprimanded Elder Leng, voice booming.

“H-he is Mu Yu?!” stuttered Ji Liangcai, world turned upside down. It took a moment for his brain cogs to start turning. He recalled receiving news Mu Yu had been instated as Bamboo Peak’s new leader. The leadership rank was important, but more importantly was the name Mu Yu.

Ji Liangcai’s knees buckled. Shaking and sweating cold bullets was just the beginning. A putrid smell leaked from between his legs.

At the end of the day, Elder Leng was with Pill Cauldron Sect; he couldn’t acknowledge Ji Liangcai was trying to scam the customer... His explanation and guarantee were able to express an apology, save his sect and the store’s reputation in addition to reassuring the customers.

“Get up now. Ground yourself. Write ‘Be honest with others. Face obstacles with determination’ ten thousand times. No coming back here until you’re done.” Mu Yu kicked Ji Liangcai, yet the latter bowed and nodded gratefully.

“Okay, back to what you were doing everyone. Mu Yu and our guest in the corner over there, come with me.” Elder Leng casually ascended the stairs.

Ku Mu grumbled as he followed after Mu Yu up to the second floor. The second floor was where Pill Cauldron Sect sold pills. The customers on the second floor weren’t privy to the debacle downstairs. The trio went up to the third floor and into a bright room.

“What is ‘Be honest with others. Face obstacles with determination’?” Elder Leng threw his walking stick he used as a prop aside.

“Honesty and determination, my life principles,” answered Mu Yu.

“That’s news to me.” Elder Leng shut the door and sat with his legs cross on the chair – basically his usual self.

“You’re behind on the times, then. What was that about your ‘grand disciple’? Also, what’s with your getup? You bereaving?”

Ku Mu questioned, “You’ve ascended to Ascension Realm? You’re a level eight alchemist now, aren’t you?”

“I most certainly am. Thanks to this jerk clearing out the wood residue, I ascended without even trying, hahaha! I am a prestigious individual, so I can’t dress sloppily.”
