Chapter 89: (1): First Encounter with the Eldest Senior Sister



"You have a Senior Sister? How is that possible? Elder Long hasn\'t taken on any disciples before you, especially not a female disciple. For a family alchemist to take on a disciple is a big deal, how could I not know about it?"

"The family has tried more than once to place disciples under his tutelage, hoping he would train more alchemists for the family."

"However, he has always been lazy and dislikes taking on disciples, rejecting all of them with the excuse that teaching disciples would lead to the master\'s demise from hunger. To this day, you\'re his only disciple."

Long Qilin widened his eyes and showed a puzzled expression. Suddenly, he patted his head and, with a look of sudden realization, finally said, "I get it. He indeed didn\'t take on a disciple, but he has a daughter. Calling her your Senior Sister wouldn\'t be wrong!"

"His relationship with his daughter is extremely strained, so it\'s normal that you\'ve never seen her visit him. Right now, she\'s the closed-door disciple of the Old Ancestor, the family\'s top genius."

Long Qilin suddenly bumped Long Xuan\'s shoulder with his own, winking and grinning mischievously, "You\'ve got some luck, becoming the junior disciple of Long Ziyan. She\'s the most beautiful woman in the clan and a celebrated figure who won the beauty contest in the Long clan. She\'s the pride of our clan."

"Her talent is something our clan hasn\'t seen in a thousand years. With her guidance, you\'ll definitely be more than fine."

Long Qilin looked at him with envy, "Tsk, tsk... The most beautiful woman in the clan! Guiding you every day, spending time with you from morning till night, a lone man and a single woman, amidst flowers under the moonlight, feelings are bound to develop over time."

"What kind of lousy idea is Elder Long coming up with, telling you to ask your Senior Sister if you don\'t understand something? Isn\'t this basically inviting a wolf into the house? There are definitely going to be some good stories to watch in the future."

Long Xuan\'s face turned dark. What kind of nonsense is this? It sounds as if he has ulterior motives towards his master\'s daughter. Is he that kind of person? This is practically an insult to his character. Even a rabbit doesn’t eat the grass near its burrow!

"Alright! Stop joking around! Master took me in out of kindness. How could I possibly lay a hand on his daughter? Would I still be human if I did? Just tell me where she is. It\'s not right that I\'ve become her junior disciple but don\'t even know who my Senior Sister is."

Long Qilin finally stopped teasing and said seriously, "She’s usually in the silkworm room. There’s only one place in the family estate where they raise silkworms, so it’s easy to find. As for which one she is, just look for the most beautiful one. The most beautiful one must be her!"

"Got it! You can continue playing with the dirt here. I\'m off to find my Senior Sister."

Long Xuan, placing beauty above friendship, immediately left Long Qilin after finding out where his Senior Sister was.

Since there was only one silkworm room in the Long family estate, it wasn’t difficult to find under the Eye of the Heavens.

Long Xuan only had to glance around to spot his target and headed straight for the silkworm room. Before long, he finally saw his Senior Sister standing at the entrance, dressed in a purple gown.

Why could he recognize her as Long Ziyan at a glance? Naturally, it was because she was the most beautiful one here, outshining the second most beautiful by a long margin. She stood out like a crane among chickens, making her easy to spot.

Long Ziyan, true to her name, had a deep love for the color purple. Her beautiful purple gown complemented her breathtaking beauty.

But her demeanor was cold, as pure as ice, with eyes that seemed to contain frost, making people afraid to look directly at her. One could only admire her from afar, but not approach.

Long Xuan, too, was intimidated by this cold aura and didn’t dare approach her immediately.

She stood at the entrance because two people were quarreling there, arguing intensely, and had already become quite heated.

"Long Yan! Don’t you understand the rule of first come, first served? Long Bao saw this Dragon Silk first. If you want it, get in line!"

A fat man, round like a ball, pointed at a handsome young man and shouted angrily.

"Get in line, my ass! Look at how fat you are! You’ve become so round, making one piece of clothing for you would be like making five for someone else. There might not even be enough Dragon Silk for you, so how would there be any left for me?"

"If you’re so fat, why don’t you wear armor? The fabric you save could protect five people. Show some humility and maximize the clan\'s benefits, so fewer people in the family die. You can\'t be too selfish!"

"I\'m telling you, there\'s no way I\'m getting in line. I refuse to wear heavy armor, and it takes time for the Dragon Silkworm to spin silk. The tomb-raiding day is just seven days away, I don\'t have time to wait!"

"Either the highest bidder wins, or we split it evenly. You choose!" Long Yan waved his hand imperiously.

Hearing this, Long Bao’s face turned red with anger. Every fat person hates being called fat, and Long Yan had repeatedly struck a nerve, breaking his composure entirely!

"You’re the one who\'s fat like a ball!"

Long Bao, enraged and humiliated, suddenly grew even larger and charged at Long Yan with a raised fist.

"The Dragon Force Gu that enhances physical strength, huh? Showing off your skills in front of an expert? I’m very familiar with all the unique Gu insects of the Long family!"

"Let’s see whose strength is greater!"

Long Yan sneered and, with a disdainful smile, released a huge Earth Master, which swung its massive blades at Long Bao.

Seeing that Long Yan was using an Earth Master, Long Bao’s face changed drastically.

This creature was now infamous in the Long family, a Gu that had recently become extremely popular and widely known.

He had heard about this Gu so much lately that his ears had grown calluses. How could he not understand its terrifying power?

This creature\'s brute strength is simply not something a human can contend with. Anyone who goes head-to-head with it is just courting death.

Even though his Dragon Force Gu was formidable, it couldn’t hope to compete with this monster in terms of raw power.

Moreover, Long Bao was a Gu cultivator who believed that physical strength was paramount, rejecting the use of external Gu insect for combat. No matter how powerful an external Gu might be, he refused to refine one.

In this situation, this close-combat monster was simply his worst nightmare.

Seeing this massive creature rushing toward him, Long Bao turned pale and immediately dodged, not daring to face it head-on.

"You coward! If you’re a man, face me in a one-on-one fight. What kind of man brings in help? If you’re a real man, let’s have a man-to-man duel!"

Long Bao’s face turned blue with anger as he dodged the Earth Master’s attacks, pounding his fists against its body.

However, the Earth Master was armored in thick iron, making his punches feel like scratching an itch for it, while his fists hurt from hitting the iron plates.

He was completely overwhelmed. How could he fight like this? He finally realized the severe consequences of specializing too much and swore to refine an Earth Master himself when he got back. Not doing so would put him at a serious disadvantage.

If he had an Earth Master today, he could easily hold off this giant creature and pin Long Yan to the ground, avoiding such a passive situation.

Faced with Long Bao’s insults, Long Yan was completely indifferent. Watching his Earth Master dominate, his smile grew wider, and he couldn’t help but sigh at how useful this creature was.

"Provoking me won’t work. External Gu is also a part of a Gu cultivator’s strength, so how could it be considered dishonorable?"

"You have to defeat it before you qualify to fight me; otherwise, you\'re not worthy of me personally stepping in!" Long Yan said with a light smile.

"You..." Long Bao was furious.

By now, a crowd had gathered to watch the commotion, but none of the Long clan’s Gu cultivators stepped in to break it up. Instead, they stirred the pot, with some cheering and others loudly offering advice, each one more excited than the last, eager to see the fight escalate.

Long Xuan was speechless, marveling at the ferocity of the Long clan\'s customs.

He had already figured out why the two had clashed. The Long clan was about to organize another tomb-raiding expedition, most likely to the Empress Yaoguang\'s tomb, which had yet to be breached.

The tomb was perilous, requiring defensive treasures for protection, and these were mostly spirit artifacts, including metal armor crafted by weapon refiners.

However, every advantage has its drawback. In most cases, the denser the metal, the harder it is, but denser metal also means it’s heavier.

So, although wearing armor-type spirit artifacts provided high defense, the downside was the increased weight, which greatly limits a Gu practitioner\'s speed.

It\'s widely accepted that in martial arts, speed trumps all, and that speed attributes are more important than defense attributes.

That\'s why you rarely see anyone in the world of immortal cultivation fighting while wearing heavy armor.
