Under Ke Chongbo's lead, Xin Jinrui and the others arrived at Minglu Peak of Changtian Sect.
The moment they entered, they couldn't control their eyes from wandering around.
This place was indeed enormous!
Their Wanxuan Sect probably only occupied a small corner of a place like this, right?!
So this was the difference between a small sect and a large sect, the gap was too big.
Only Qin Yiwei remained slightly calmer, since in her previous life she had stayed here for a period of time.
However, once they reached Minglu Peak, even she couldn't resist looking around.
In her previous life, she didn't have her current strength, and so had only been an outer sect disciple in Changtian Sect, many core areas had been inaccessible to her.
It had to be said, Minglu Peak was towering and majestic, inspiring awe at first glance.
Still, they only showed their "country bumpkin" expressions when no one was around. The moment others appeared, they immediately adopted composed, dignified postures.
—They absolutely couldn't disgrace Wanxuan Sect's reputation!
Before coming, Qin Yiwei had reminded them of this point, and everyone wholeheartedly agreed.
So they straightened their backs, wore calm expressions, and carried faint smiles.
They were dressed in their finest robes, Chu Jingzhuo had even drawn talismans onto them.
Originally, with Chu Jingzhuo's current strength, he could only inscribe fairly ordinary talismans onto cloth.
Then Mu Shiyue had casually modified a few strokes.
Although only a handful of strokes were changed, the effect increased tremendously.
As their master, Mu Shiyue had put in some effort, especially considering how lazy she usually was.
Thus, in the eyes of Ke Minglu and Wen Yan, the six disciples of Wanxuan Sect were the embodiment of the words 'elegant and eye-catching'.
They wore robes of the same style but in different colors. The men were handsome, the women beautiful, all carrying themselves with grace and composure, exuding the bearing of a great sect.
Even Changtian Sect's own inner disciples might not match their presence.
Ke Minglu finally understood why his wife kept mentioning the disciples of Wanxuan Sect after returning.
They were actually this exceptional!
At that moment, he couldn't resist wondering whether, when recruiting disciples in the future, appearance should also be considered.
Good looks really were pleasing to the eye!
Sect Master Mu was indeed worthy of being in a Soul Transformation Stage ancestor, she had considered a lot even when selecting disciples!
"Welcome, welcome!"
Ke Minglu broke into a radiant smile and strode forward enthusiastically.
Wen Yan also followed closely, her smile equally warm.
The surrounding disciples were stunned by their masters' enthusiasm.
Everyone's gazes toward Xin Jinrui and the others immediately changed.
Which sect's disciples were these, to receive such a warm welcome from their masters?!
Even other sects' peak masters or Nascent Soul Stage cultivators didn't always receive such treatment and enthusiasm from the couple.
The disciples of Minglu Peak and Changwen Peak exchanged puzzled looks.
However, they quickly learned from fellow disciples who had previously visited Wanxuan Sect about Xin Jinrui and the others.
Upon learning that their master was a Soul Transformation cultivator, they were first shocked, then envious, and finally enlightened.
So they were disciples of a Soul Transformation cultivator, no wonder they were extraordinary!
No wonder the Ke brothers were so enthusiastic!
If it were them, they would be just as enthusiastic!
With that realization, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
Being surrounded by so many smiling faces the moment they arrived startled Xin Jinrui and the others.
Were the disciples of Minglu Peak and Changwen Peak always this friendly and warm?
Even Qin Yiwei was confused.
Large sect disciples were usually proud, especially inner disciples. It wasn't uncommon for them to hold their chins high in arrogance.
Yet right now, there wasn't a single trace of arrogance, only genuine warmth and friendliness.
The group exchanged glances, perhaps large sects were humble as well?
Regardless, since the other party was so friendly, the several of them let out a breath of relief.
After all, it was their first time at Changtian Sect, and they feared making fools of themselves and embarrassing their master.
Fortunately, everything seemed fine.
"Elder Ke, Elder Wen," Xin Jinrui greeted respectfully with his junior brothers and sisters.
"Why call us Elders? Just call us Martial Uncles!" Ke Minglu laughed heartily and patted Xin Jinrui on the shoulder.
"Martial Uncles?"
They exchanged bewildered looks.
Everyone knew that those older or of higher cultivation were called Martial Uncles or Martial Seniors accordingly.
But what did Ke Minglu mean?
In terms of cultivation, their master was only at Golden Core Stage. In age, she wasn't even a quarter of theirs.
So…where did 'Martial Uncle' come from?
"Yes, call us Martial Uncles," Wen Yan said warmly. "We're practically one family, there's no need to stand on ceremony."
"Exactly, exactly." Ke Chongbo nodded repeatedly, thumping his chest in agreement. "Master Mu is my master too, we're all one family!"
"Yoyo~!" One family!
Xin Jinrui and the others: "..."
Their lips twitched. For a moment, they didn't know what to say.
Since when did Ke Chongbo become their master's disciple?
How did they suddenly become one family?
Were these powerful figures all so approachable?
"Alright," Ke Chongzhen said with a smile, seeing that his parents and brother had thoroughly confused them. "Don't scare them, they just arrived."
"Oh right. You've come from afar, you must be tired. Rest here first, later Ah Zhen will take you to register."
"…Alright."
They were too enthusiastic, the group could only obediently nod.
"I'll head to Yingke Peak to make arrangements," Ke Chongzhen said.
"Go ahead."
"Yoyo~"
After Ke Chongzhen left, Ta Xue lifted its head and called out to them several times.
The several of them didn't quite understand its meaning.
Then Ta Xue lifted its chin and tried hard to mimic strange "ao-wu" and "ying-ying" sounds.
This time, they understood what it wanted to ask.
"Little Tiger Baby and Little Sesame are at home, they didn't come."
Understanding their words, Ta Xue's eyes immediately drooped, anyone could it's disappointment.
It had lived at Wanxuan Sect for a while and formed good bonds with the other cubs.
After returning to Changtian Sect, there were no cubs of similar age around. It couldn't really play with Chang Kong either, it would just get brushed off.
So it missed Little Tiger Baby and the others.
Yet they didn't come!
Unable to bear the cub's dejected expression, Qin Yiwei took out a steam bun, "Here. This is for you."
"Yoyo!"
Catching the familiar scent, Ta Xue immediately brightened and opened its mouth to bite the bun.
But in the next second, a massive mouth descended from above and swallowed the bun in one bite.
Ta Xue froze, mouth still wide open, staring blankly as its bun was robbed away.
"Neigh neigh~ puff!" Chang Kong devoured the bun in a few bites, barely enough to get between its teeth, and even looked somewhat disdainful.
The taste was alright, but not as good as before.
Ta Xue finally snapped back to its senses and shrieked in fury, charging at Chang Kong on tiny hooves.
The moment it collided with Chang Kong, it was instantly bounced backward, sent flying.
"Yooo—!"
