Chapter 176: Shangguan Yu

“Ah, so these are the high-ranking members of the Undying Sect you’ve caught.”

Suddenly, a voice appeared behind Lu Yang, startling him. He turned around to see the young girl, Shangguan Yu.

“Why would he abandon a perfectly good barbecue shop to mix with a demonic cult?” Shangguan Yu shook her head, reminiscing about the taste of the skewers, feeling pity for these people.

“Anyway, you guys from the Dao Seeking Sect did well, catching a big fish. It’s been many years since you’ve caught such a high-profile figure. I hope you can extract useful information from him.”

Shangguan Yu smiled and patted Lu Yang on the shoulder: “I see you’re naturally a person of the Dao Seeking Sect. Keep working hard; I have high hopes for you. Maybe you’ll surpass Daoist Non-Speaker one day!”

Yun Zhi added from the side: “Of course he will surpass master.”

Shangguan Yu scratched her head; she actually meant that Lu Yang’s creativity could surpass Daoist Non-Speaker. Did Little Yun misunderstand something?

Forget it, too troublesome to explain.

Just as Lu Yang was about to say something, he saw Shangguan Yu vanish into thin air, not knowing what method she used.

...

On the stand, the Grand Elder was calming the situation: “Everyone, don’t panic. It was just a few Unity Stage members of the demonic cult using a celestial treasure to launch a sneak attack on us, nothing serious.”NewW novels updates on nov/el/b(i)n(.)com

The Grand Elder had a “this is a common occurrence at our Dao Seeking Sect” and “you Five Elements Sect haven’t seen this before, huh” and “these people can’t even stir a ripple here” expression.

Qiu Jin’an was certain, this guy was showing off.

A Unity Stage demonic cultist launching a sneak attack with a celestial treasure, if it happened in the Five Elements Sect, they would be on high alert. Unlike the Dao Seeking Sect, which still had the mood to play.

Your hearts are really big, huh.

“Undying Sect’s?” Qiu Jin’an remembered, Yun Zhi knows some secrets about the Undying Sect. She must have had some clues.

Unity Stage, huh, this definitely signifies a vice sect master level figure in the Undying Sect; the Dao Seeking Sect has caught a big fish this time.

Qiu Jin’an was envious; if they could dig deeper into this big fish, they would surely uncover a lot of valuable things.

Why does the Dao Seeking Sect always encounter such good luck!

“Indeed,” the Grand Elder replied elegantly.

Qiu Jin’an resisted the urge to beat up the Grand Elder and negotiated: “The Five Great Immortal Sects share a common enemy. If you find out any information, do let us know.”

“Definitely, definitely, I’ll surely come to expand my horizons at the Dao Seeking Sect again.”

Both of them cursed in their hearts: “Finally, I don’t have to see this old geezer again.”

The Second Elder sincerely told Shangguan Yu: “If you’re bullied in the Five Elements Sect, come to me. I’ve watched Qiu Jin’an grow up. He seems upright, but he’s actually quite sneaky. Don’t let him deceive you!”

Shangguan Yu laughed it off, saying Qiu Jin’an wouldn’t dare to deceive her.

The Second Elder was heartbroken, saying it was exactly because you were too naive that you got deceived by Qiu Jin’an.

Qiu Jin’an stepped between them, his face dark enough to drip water: “Old Second, Ba, I’ve told you, stay away from her!” (TL Note: He used “巴老二” which is directly translated as “Ba Old Second”, Ba being his surname and 老二 meaning old second. There’s no good way to translate it in english.)

The Second Elder was indifferent: “Don’t scare me. Everyone knows Shangguan Yu is said to be your half-sister from the same father. I’ve checked; your father only has you as a son, you don’t have any sisters.”

“Everyone grew up together, who doesn’t know who. You don’t have a fiancée, and Shangguan Yu has nothing to do with you. What right do you have to stop me!”

Qiu Jin’an exploded in anger: “She’s my mom!”

The Second Elder stiffened, “Even if she’s your mom... what? What did you say?”

The Second Elder instinctively retorted to Qiu Jin’an, realizing midway something was amiss.

How did discussing a girlfriend lead to talking about a mom?

The Grand Elder and others quietly stepped back, probably due to being beaten too many times as children; they had an innate fear and desire to stay away from the older generation.

The reaction from the Five Elements Sect disciples was even stronger; one of the Five Great Mysteries of the Five Elements Sect was finally solved.

“No wonder it’s said in the cultivation world not to judge age by appearance; it’s really true!”

“I remember someone came to propose marriage, and the sect master kicked him out with a dark face. We thought it was because he was overprotective of his sister, but the reason was here.”

Qiu Jin’an then turned to Shangguan Yu, who was enjoying the show, his tone revealing a despairing helplessness: “Mom, you too, can’t you stop hiding your identity just to look younger? Do you know how many misunderstandings it has caused?”

Shangguan Yu felt her son was being unfilial: “How am I trying to look younger? Am I not only eighteen? Besides, what’s wrong with pretending to be your sister? Your dad agreed!”

“My dad’s grass on his grave is taller than me! Did he come to you in a dream?”
