Under Wuo Tong's command, Evergreen Peak, Misty Peak, Purple Snow Peak , Lotus Peak and Spring Water Peak's newly picked disciples headed to their respective Peaks with their Peak Master's permission.
A huge mountain with five mini hills surrounding it resembling a crown made up the Rising Mountain. Spring Water Peak is located at the north , Lotus Peak was located at the south ,while Purple Snow Peak was located at the northeastern region. Evergreen Peak and Misty Peak were located at the west and Eastern regions.
At Spring Water Peak.
" This is where you all will be staying" Xiao Ying stated as he lead the six new disciples to a spacious yard. The houses in this yard were separated by some miles and were a hundred square meters each. There were five houses to the left and five to the right. Over all, there were ten houses in this yard.
Behind him were six people who wore different clothings. Ye Shenyin was one of them.
Xiao Ying clasped his hands together as he continued nonchalantly "I am your Senior Brother Xiao Ying but you can call me Xiao. Well whatever, since you are all here you can pick the house that you like and settle in. You should all know that Spring Water Peak has never accepted disciples before therefore there are no other disciples aside from you all so you don't have to worry about anyone haha"
"..."
Everyone who listened to him went blank. They didn't know what to say.
Ever since Xiao Ying showed up, they had already thought highly of him due to his indifference. However, upon leaving the bustling arena and arriving at the place he considered his home, Xiao Ying suddenly turned into another person, leaving behind his cold and indifferent facade and showing his friendly side which astonished everyone.
This meant that he had already accepted these fellows as his juniors from the bottom of his heart.
After all, this was the first time Spring Water Peak has accepted disciples which caused him to be both anxious and excited.
In light of this, the youths who were also anxious at first , finally relaxed.
"Senior Brother Xiao Ying, nice to meet you. I am Wei Liang!" one of them took the initiative to introduce himself.
"I am Huang Zhuli!"
"I'm Huan Hua. Nice to meet you everyone"
"I am Liang Zhou"
" Ye Shenyin "
" My name is Qi Ying..."
Everyone enthusiastically introduced themselves one by one. Xiao Ying found this rather silly and chuckled lightly. Without further Ado, everyone moved to find places that are suitable for them while Xiao Ying assists them.
An hour later, the disciples successfully settled and occupied six out of nine available houses. Xiao Ying came out from a nearby house which was his while holding a measuring tool, he walked lively to the center of the yard where a rectangular table was placed.
Seeing him walk out, Huang Zhuli and Huan Hua, who were still chatting outside hurriedly greeted him with the same enthusiastic manner.
"Call the others I have something to do" Xiao Ying ushered the duo who came to greet him as he put the measuring tool on the table, his expression lively.
"Okay!" The duo nodded and went their separate ways to call the others.
Some time later, six people arrived and greeted Xiao Ying who was sitting on one of the chairs.
"Senior Brother, we have come" Huang Zhuli was the first one to speak.
"I know"
Xiao Ying stood up and stretched the measuring tool in his hand, attempting to measure Huang Zhuli's waist.
"..."
After doing so, Xiao Ying casted him aside as he pulled another person and shamelessly did the same without another word.
"Senior Brother, can I do mine?" Ye Shenyin spoke up almost immediately upon seeing the line gradually shorten.
Some kilometres away, Lu Qingxian , together with Wuo Tong and Liu Shen was walking side to side.
"I'll talk to the Peak Master" said Liu Shen
"He isn't here. He went to accept a certain task" Lu Qingxian replied.
The duo , Wuo Tong and Liu Shen looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes This was the first time they heard that Yan Shan had accepted a task.
Liu Shen nodded in understanding and said :
"It seems that Spring Water Peak is slowly recovering?"
"A'Qing if you need anything, just find me. I'll do my best to help you" Wuo Tong offered.
"You should know I'm doing this to measure an appropriate sizes for your uniform" It was at this moment that the trio heard Xiao Ying who seemed to be scolding someone. Lu Qingxian glanced at Wuo Tong and Liu Shen for a second before heading to the spacious yard where everyone was gathering.
"I wouldn't want to inconvenience Senior Brother so let me do it" From afar, Lu Qingxian can hear Ye Shenyin insisting.
Furrowing his brows, Xiao Ying casted aside another person before pulling Ye Shenyin who immediately backed a few steps
"Oi what are you afraid of? I don't bite" Xiao Ying inwardly rolled his eyes.
"Xiao Ying" Lu Qingxian firmly called out. Upon arriving, the disciples bowed their heads in respect as they parted to give way for him.
Before the rectangular table, Xiao Ying was standing while holding the stretched measuring tool in one hand while the other was trying to get a grip of Ye Shenyin's arm.
Ye Shenyin's face was grim yet seeing Lu Qingxian arrive, he immediately behaved. Only then did Xiao Ying gave up and turned to greet Lu Qingxian
"What's the matter here?" Lu Qingxian's brows were furrowed
Behind him, Wuo Tong and Liu Shen also arrived.
"Is that Xiao Ying and one of Lu Qingxian's disciple?" Liu Shen , with his folded arms asked
"obviously" Wuo Tong rubbed his chin as he stared at the gathered people. He even secretly examined the disciples from head to toe.
"This old man..." Huang Zhuli, whispered to Huan Hua beside him
"He's creepy alright"Huan Hua understood him and nodded, his palm resting on his cheek.
"Also, Evergreen Peak Master Liu Shen , beside him, he's handsome but he's also creeping me out"
"Mhm. He seemed to be inspecting us but not directly" The duo continued their chit chat while side glancing at Wuo Tong and Liu Shen who was secretly yet intensely inspecting everyone.
"Everyone, just go back to your places and take a rest. This day has been tiring"
Lu Qingxian's voice resounded at the right time dispelling the secret judgings from both sides.
"Peak Master Liu, Lord Wuo...." Xiao Ying slightly bowed to the two Peak masters before dispersing everyone. Once everyone had dispersed including Xiao Ying, Lu Qingxian turned to the duo and bowed apologetically
"Peak Masters, I apologize for the inconvenience"
"It seems that your disciples are lacking some manners and discipline" Liu Shen expressed his thoughts, displeased. In fact, when he arrived here and saw the commotion, he already felt displeased.
"They are still so young, they could still be polished over time. A'Qing, do you need assistance?" Wuo Tong was more concerned. However, Lu Qingxian was far more capable than they had imagine when it comes to this thing so he only shook his head and politely declined.
The duo didn't stay for long and also took their leave.
After some pondering, Lu Qingxian turned to look at the house where Ye Shenyin was staying.
