nShangguan Yan said, “Little Xiao, you’re impressive. You advanced again today. Not bad, not bad. I believe that it won’t be long before you can catch up to me.”

n“But speaking of which, the three of us haven’t seen each other in a long time, right?”

nLin Xiao was stunned.

nImmediately, he felt as if a lifetime had passed.

nIn the past few days, Elder Yao had also woken up because of the smelly water. All of this had undergone a complete change.

nSeeing Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan, the brothers who had been relying on each other for the past few years, he felt inexplicably excited.

nAt this moment, Lin Xiao surprisingly discovered a familiar and powerful Qi Refinement Realm aura.

nHe said in shock, “Wow! Little Liang, you’ve broken through to the Qi Refinement Realm?”

nHe was very surprised. It seemed that the last time he saw Gong Ziliang, he was only at the fifth-stage Martial Body Realm.

nNow, he was actually at the Qi Refinement Realm. This speed was really shocking. Could it be that there was a senior like Elder Yao in Gong Ziliang’s body?

nWhen he heard this, Gong Ziliang smiled and said, “That’s right. I recently accepted a sect mission and went down the mountain. I encountered a fortuitous encounter and was lucky to break through to the Qi Refinement Realm.”

nLin Xiao was extremely surprised.

nThis advancement speed was much faster than his.

nIn the Profound Heaven Sect, with the help of some smelly water, he was guided by Elder Yao, so he could quickly break through and advance.

nWhat about Gong Ziliang?

nHe had only gone down the mountain for a while and was already… at the Qi Refinement Realm?

nOh my heavens!

nIn the words that Gong Ziliang had taught him in the past, he… had awakened a cheat?

nAt this moment, Elder Yao’s elderly voice sounded in his mind again.

n“Little Xiao, don’t be surprised. Cultivators have countless fortuitous encounters. You just haven’t experienced the outside world yet.”

n“When you break through to the Qi Refinement Realm, you can leave the mountain. At that time, you will naturally understand.”

nLin Xiao subconsciously replied in his mind, “I understand, Elder Yao.”

nAfter responding, Lin Xiao raised his head again and looked at Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan. He smiled and said, “The three of us have all advanced recently. How about this? Do you want to drink some wine tonight?”

n“No problem! It’s been a long time since the three of us drank together. Let me make some dishes. Little Liang, shall we drink together?”

nShangguan Yan stood up and asked.

nGong Ziliang shook his head and said, “Alright, but I have to kill a chicken tonight.”

nThat’s right. At eight o’clock tonight, there was a daily gold farming activity. Wasn’t it good to kill chickens for vouchers?

nShangguan Yan: “???”

nLin Xiao: “???”

n“What? There’s no need to kill chickens. Why don’t we just get some peanuts, sunflower seeds, and pickled vegetables? If we kill chickens in the sect, we might be arrested.” Shangguan Yan complained.

nThe Profound Heaven Sect had few chickens to begin with. Moreover, there were other disciples watching over them. If they wanted to steal a chicken, it was simply suicidal…

nHowever, having chicken for supper was not a bad idea…

nGong Ziliang thought for a moment and stood up as well, “It’s nothing. Let’s go. I’ll go cook some dishes with wine with Little Yan.”

nGong Ziliang had almost forgotten that the chicken he said meant something else when Shangguan Yan and Lin Xiao heard it.

nNow, Gong Ziliang noticed that it was almost eight o’clock. The Parkour Event was about to begin. Although it was only ten minutes, as long as he ran, the rewards were really rich.

nThen, the three of them walked out of the outer sect courtyard and separated.

nWhen Lin Xiao turned around, he surprisingly saw Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan talking seriously.

nAlthough he could not hear what they were saying, Lin Xiao had a feeling that the two of them seemed to be talking about him!

nLin Xiao: “Damn!”

n…

nOn Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan’s side, they arrived at the chicken farm that was specially watched by some disciples.

nThe chicken farm here was quite large. Usually, disciples who had accepted the first-grade missions of the sect would watch over it, but they were all goofing off and sleeping. Some were meditating and cultivating, completely ignoring the safety of the chickens.

nIn their minds, the younger brothers of the Profound Heaven Sect were all very well-behaved. How could anyone come to steal chickens?

nGong Ziliang said softly, “Little Yan, do you want to eat chicken?”

n“There’s so many of them. Little Liang, don’t tell me that you really have designs on these chickens? This is not too good…”

n“If we’re discovered, we’re doomed.”

n“Alright, alright. I think we should go down the mountain to buy some peanuts. I’ll buy them while you pay.”

n“I, Shangguan Yan, won’t steal chickens even if I only eat peanuts, drink wine, and eat pickles today!”

nLooking at Shangguan Yan’s righteous appearance, Gong Ziliang said unhurriedly, “I’ll make you a specialty dish of ours called Beggar’s Chicken.”

n“Then what are we waiting for? Keep an eye on them. I’ll catch them.”

nShangguan Yan was instantly tempted. He changed his mind and pointed at the chicken closest to them, saying, “This is it. This one is quite fat!”

nAs soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Yan rushed forward at lightning speed and grabbed the rooster’s wings, running quickly.

nHe hurriedly shouted, “Run!”

nWhen Gong Ziliang saw this, he followed up. It had to be said that this was the ninth-stage Martial Body Realm Shangguan Yan. His speed was much faster than before.

nHowever, how fast could they be? When the rooster in their hands saw that it was captured, it cried loudly.

n“Caw! Caw!”

nThe sound was loud and clear. When the disciples guarding the chicken farm saw this, they discovered the backs of the two green-clothed disciples with a rooster in their hands. They immediately chased after them.

nHowever, their cultivation realms were not as high as Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan’s, so their speed naturally could not keep up.

nHowever, even so, they did not give up. After all, if they lost a chicken, they would not be able to complete the sect mission.

nWhy did Gong Ziliang come to steal chickens?

nOne was to save copper coins, and the other was for the Parkour Event.

nDing! The Parkour Event on Saturday will begin in 1 minute. Please be prepared!

nSeeing this, Gong Ziliang was overjoyed.

nToday’s parkour location is: Profound Heaven Sect.

nIf you run around casually (parkour) in the Profound Heaven Sect, you can directly obtain experience, copper coins, ingots, equipment, and items!

nThe Parkour Event will last for ten minutes…

nDing! You obtained 10 ingots from participating in the Parkour Event.

nDing! You have obtained a low-level Experience Pill from participating in the Parkour Event.

nDing! You have obtained 1% current level EXP from participating in the Parkour Event.

nDing! You obtained 100,000 copper coins from participating in the Parkour Event.

nDing! You obtained 1 skill fragment from participating in the Parkour Event.

nGong Ziliang: “???”

nWhat fragment???

n…

nTen minutes later, Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan carried their rooster and fled from the disciples guarding the chicken farm.

nThen, the two of them came to the back mountain and threw this chicken into the wood fire to cook it like the Beggar’s Chicken. Shangguan Yan watched over it while Gong Ziliang went down the mountain to buy some dishes. He could afford to pay for just some food.

nThen, when Gong Ziliang summoned the system interface…
