#116 - Chapter 116 I am the Demon Emperor, don’t I have any dignity?

Myriad Flowers Peak.

All the female disciples stood outside the peak, arranged in two rows, to welcome the disciples from逍遥 Peak who were coming to challenge them.

This scene made many disciples jealous.

When they came to challenge, Myriad Flowers Peak ignored them. If not for the rules, they wouldn't even be able to enter the gate of Myriad Flowers Peak.

Especially when Martial Arts Peak came to challenge, they had to stand at the gate for almost an hour before they could enter.

But now, before the people from 逍遥 Peak even arrived, Myriad Flowers Peak was welcoming them in neat formation.

Comparing people is infuriating!

"Why do you look so unwilling when we come to challenge, but when 逍遥 Peak comes, you welcome them in formation?" A disciple, dissatisfied, stepped forward to argue.

"Because 逍遥 Peak is weak, and sparring with them is friendly sparring," a disciple from Myriad Flowers Peak replied.

As soon as these words came out, the disciple who stepped forward to argue was instantly speechless.

In this day and age, being weak is justified?

Shouldn't they be welcoming the strong? How did it become welcoming the weak?

The reason given by the disciples of Myriad Flowers Peak was actually nonsense.

逍遥 Peak is weak, but only the peak master is weak.

Their two disciples swept through the younger generation, is that weak?

The real reason they were welcoming them was that the people from 逍遥 Peak were easy to talk to, simple to get along with, and also handsome, pleasing to the eye.

Unlike the disciples from other peaks, who would shout about getting on the arena to spar as soon as they arrived.

The disciples from Heavenly Sword Peak were aloof, the disciples from Martial Arts Peak were just fools, and the disciples from Beast Taming Peak all brought their demonic beasts with them.

The disciples from the other peaks were no better.

The disciples of Myriad Flowers Peak were really fed up with receiving them and didn't want to do it again.

逍遥 Peak was no problem.

Just three or four of you, come in, drink tea, chat, make a few gestures, and it's over.

How great.

As the disciples of Myriad Flowers Peak were thinking, they saw Ye Kong leading his three disciples walking over.

Su Qingwan stepped on flower petals and landed from a high place, looked at Ye Kong, and bowed slightly.

"Welcome 逍遥 Peak to come and exchange pointers!"

"Yes, you have a heart," Ye Kong said with a faint smile, leading his disciples up the steps.

The disciples of Myriad Flowers Peak stood, scattering flower petals, very harmonious.

Those who knew knew they were here to challenge, those who didn't know would think they were here to get married.

Many disciples from other peaks watched as the disciples from 逍遥 Peak were warmly invited in, their eyes turning red.

"It's not fair! This day and age doesn't welcome the strong, but welcomes the weak?"

"Are they handsome? Are you handsome?"

"Get out, in the sect, we look at strength, not looks."

"Strength? The two disciples of 逍遥 Peak have overthrown the eight peaks, wouldn't you call that strength?"

"That hurts..."

After they went in, the onlookers reluctantly dispersed.

Below the pavilion, there was an arena for sparring.

After Ye Kong sat down, Liu Ruqing, wearing a cyan-green long dress, walked gracefully with lotus steps.

The long dress trailed on the ground, untouched by dust.

With light powder on her face, and a beauty spot between her eyebrows, she looked even more charming.

"Senior Sister Liu!" Ye Kong greeted.

"Junior Brother Ye Kong," Liu Ruqing said with a smile, sitting opposite Ye Kong.

Lin Yaoyao and the others could only sit at another, shorter table, with Su Qingwan receiving the three of them. The necessary etiquette was still required.

"Junior Brother Ye Kong, if you have time, bring your disciples to my Myriad Flowers Peak more often," Liu Ruqing said with a smile.

"Certainly, my little white disciple has always wanted to come," Ye Kong said casually as a polite remark.

Little White: I didn't, you're talking nonsense, you're slandering me!

You're just being polite, why mention me?

Ye Kong was just saying it as a polite remark, but Liu Ruqing took it seriously.

So Little White has always wanted to come...

Ye Kong and Liu Ruqing exchanged cups and drank some wine, occasionally talking about this and that.

Lin Yaoyao and the others also ate some spiritual fruit casually, wondering if they weren't here to challenge?

What was going on?

Xiao Qing looked at the picturesque scenery, feeling some emotion.

They were both one of the nine peaks, but this was a place where people lived!

Pavilions and towers, immortal aura lingering, like a fairyland on earth.

Even more, the disciples of Myriad Flowers Peak danced gracefully beside them, beautiful and exquisite.

Compared to 逍遥 Peak...

Xiao Qing didn't want to compare, there was no comparison.

逍遥 Peak was deserted for ten miles, they lived in thatched huts, and there was almost no food.

Even the cultivation resources were very scarce.

And here, there was fine wine and delicacies on the table, spiritual fruits and food, which not only accelerated the absorption of spiritual power but also benefited the body.

What a difference!

What Xiao Qing didn't know was that, apart from 逍遥 Peak, Liu Ruqing hadn't entertained anyone else.

When disciples from other peaks came, they would finish the fight as soon as possible and get out.

Not to mention entertaining them, they wouldn't even get a drop of water.

At most, they would prepare a pot of tea with spiritual power and a plate of spiritual fruit for the peak master.

If they wanted to drink, they could pour their own water, if they didn't want to drink, they could leave it and continue to serve it when the next peak master came.

That was the difference.

Of course, there was a reason why Liu Ruqing did this.

When other peaks came to challenge, they were really here to fight, without any mercy.

If others came up to fight, would you entertain them well?

Definitely not.

And 逍遥 Peak, just three or four of you, after eating and drinking your fill, let the disciples go down to the arena to digest, and that was the end of the fight.

There was no need to be too serious, just entertain them well, drink some wine, chat, and it would be over.

Moreover, the reason why Myriad Flowers Peak was first was because 逍遥 Peak had eliminated the two strong enemies, Beast Taming Peak and Heavenly Sword Peak.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for Myriad Flowers Peak to easily take first place.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food.

Liu Ruqing said, "Junior Brother, after the exchange, we still have to spar a bit, otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to the sect master."

"That's natural," Ye Kong said with a smile, nodding.

"Originally, there was no need to spar, but the sect master took half of the power and placed some disciples in my Myriad Flowers Peak, so we have to spar."

"However, there's no need to be too serious, just spar a bit," Liu Ruqing continued.

Ye Kong nodded, looked back at his three disciples, and instructed:

"You three have eaten your fill, go to the arena to digest, just make a few gestures."

"Disciple understands!" The three cupped their hands.

If it wasn't necessary, they would be too lazy to go down.

"After the sparring is over, I'll take you around my Myriad Flowers Peak," Liu Ruqing said, looking at them.

"Last time we visited Myriad Flowers Peak, we seemed to get lost, it won't happen this time, will it?" Little White looked at everyone.

Everyone looked at each other, each embarrassed.

Last time they visited Myriad Flowers Peak together, they were walking fine, but they got lost.

It was just unbelievable.

Only when they reacted did they realize that Ye Kong and the others had gone to the flower bed, and Liu Ruqing had taken Little White to the garden.

Getting lost on their own peak was unspeakably embarrassing.

"Alright, go down and spar," Ye Kong said with a smile, waving his hand.

Only then did Lin Yaoyao and the others go down.

The first to go on stage was Little White, riding Erha onto the arena, holding a spirit halberd two heads taller than him, looking utterly adorable.

Walking towards him was the charming woman from yesterday's battle, Ning Mei.

After stepping onto the stage, without exchanging blows or greetings, she pinched Little White's baby face.

"Little brother, fighting and killing is so bad," Ning Mei said with a chuckle.

Little White was immediately dumbfounded.

I seem to... be teased?

This emperor, the dignified Demon Emperor, is actually being teased?

Unforgivable!

I'm here to spar, not to be cute!

"Come, fight!" Little White shouted, his face flushed.

Seeing this, Ning Mei, without saying a word, directly admitted defeat.

"I admit defeat!"

Hearing her voice, Little White's momentum suddenly decreased.

"You're admitting defeat just like that? We haven't even fought!"

Ning Mei walked over and pinched Little White's chubby face again.

"Fighting and killing is so bad, pinching your face is more comfortable."

Ning Mei smiled charmingly and walked off the arena.

There's no need to be too serious when competing with 逍遥 Peak.

So what if there are spies from the sect master watching?

"You pinched my face again!" Little White said angrily.

Does this emperor, the dignified Demon Emperor, not have any dignity?
