Chapter 41 The Lone Star of Calamity
The next morning.
The first thing Zhuge Yan did upon waking up in the morning was, as usual, to begin his daily routine of practicing hard skills using the Qian character method.
Although the sharpness of the sword often left him with numerous wounds, Zhuge Yan found it all quite enjoyable.
Only through this gradual growth amidst pain can he forget the "illusion" and feel the down-to-earth "reality".
This is why he chose to cultivate in such a way that is almost "self-harming".
After finishing his morning exercise, Zhuge Yan left the inn.
Next, he was going to the Sanyi Gate to visit his cousin Zhuge Yun, but he also wanted to seek advice from the Left Gate Master.
Although no one from the Wuhou School could give him an answer, this highly respected "Daying Immortal" might be able to help him find his way.
Perhaps because he had shaken off the Quanxing gang by plane, Zhuge Yan traveled smoothly along the way and encountered almost no trouble.
When we arrived at Sanyi Town at the foot of Sanyi Mountain, it was already close to dusk.
Since it was getting late, Zhuge Yan decided to rest in the town for a day and visit the mountain the next morning.
Just as he was wandering aimlessly through the streets, looking for an inn to stay at, a childish voice suddenly rang out behind Zhuge Yan.
"Feeding? From out of town?"
Zhuge Yan turned his head and saw a boy about his age standing under a lantern at the street corner.
The boy's clothes were very clean, and he looked like the young master of a wealthy family, but his eyes gave people a feeling of being unruly and rebellious.
"Um."
Zhuge Yan nodded and did not deny it.
"What are you doing in this town?"
The boy then asked.
"Visiting relatives."
"Visiting relatives?"
"right."
Zhuge Yun is his cousin, so if that's the case, isn't his trip here to visit relatives?
Do you have relatives living in our town?
A hint of suspicion flashed in the boy's eyes.
"No, it's not in town, it should be in the mountains."
As he spoke, Zhuge Yan pointed to the distant mountains.
That should be the location of the Sanyi Sect's mountain gate.
Following the direction Zhuge Yan pointed, the boy's pupils contracted sharply the moment he saw the towering mountain.
"Trinity Gate?!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yan's eyes gradually narrowed.
The fact that he knows the Trinity Clan suggests this young man is no ordinary person...
"Um."
"Who are you looking for at the Trinity Gate?"
After being asked several questions in a row, even Zhuge Yan, with his characteristic temperament, gradually began to lose patience.
"Are you the sheriff of this town?"
"no."
"Why are you asking so many questions about the details?"
The boy was slightly taken aback.
The reason he took the initiative to stop Zhuge Yan was because this town rarely had outsiders.
Most of the outsiders who came before were those bastards from Quanxing.
Although he has now taken a Quanxing as his master, it is precisely because of this that he understands even better what kind of people they are.
Sanyi Town is, after all, his hometown. Protecting his hometown and keeping an eye on these bastards to prevent them from causing trouble is what he should do.
"Kid, you're pretty arrogant, huh?"
The boy grinned, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.
Sanyi Gate... It's Sanyi Gate again!
Yes, having a relative practicing at the Sanyi Sect must make you feel very proud, right?
But I, of course, don't care!
Zhuge Yan frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled.
It's as if the moment I mention the words "Sanyi Gate," this little guy reacts as if he's triggered some kind of switch.
What, you're sensitive too?
"Who are you?"
"I will never change my name or surname; I am Li Muxuan, the second young master of the Li family in the southern city!"
"Li Muxuan?"
Upon hearing this name, a strange look flashed in Zhuge Yan's eyes.
To be honest, he really didn't realize that the person in front of him was the famous "Immortal of Immortality"!
That's not surprising; it's no wonder this kid gets agitated whenever he hears "Sanyi Gate".
"I've heard so much about you."
Zhuge Yan gave a perfunctory fist salute, then turned to leave.
To be honest, he really didn't want to have anything to do with this "untainted immortal".
Fate enters the Lonely Star, with inauspicious stars entwined in the palace.
Kinship ties are as thin as paper, and blood ties are now empty.
A life adrift with nowhere to belong, wandering alone through a thousand mountains, with whom to share the journey?
He conquered all directions to preserve his life, and lived a quiet life to end his remaining years.
In the words of the sorcerer, this kid is born with a solitary fate; basically, no one who gets involved with him ends up with a good end.
Zuo Ruotong, Lu Jin, Wugensheng...
These people, whose fates were originally of great importance, basically all began their descent into a dead end after getting involved with this guy.
Therefore, it's best to stay as far away from people with this kind of destiny as possible. Getting too close will inevitably lead to trouble for yourself sooner or later!
"stop!"
Just as Zhuge Yan turned his head and was about to leave, Li Muxuan suddenly called out to him.
"What's up?"
"You said you went to Sanyimen to visit relatives. What's your relative's name?"
"I said, is this any of your business?"
"It's okay, I was just curious and wanted to ask."
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yan let out a soft sigh.
"Li Muxuan, right? Here's a piece of advice: if you want to become a Quanxing, then stop talking nonsense and just fight me."
If you don't want to be a member of the Quanxing sect, don't waste my time here.
Upon hearing this, Li Muxuan was slightly taken aback, and then a strange smile crept onto his lips.
"But what if I don't want to fight you, but I also don't want you to leave?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yan immediately twitched the corner of his mouth.
No, you really are an "untainted immortal," right?
There were very few outsiders in the town to begin with, so there were hardly any inns.
Okay, if you don't mind, you can stay at my place tonight.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yan immediately glanced at Li Muxuan.
"What do you mean?"
"Literally."
His words actually left Zhuge Yan somewhat at a loss.
What exactly is this little guy planning?
"Sorry, never mind, I don't like owing favors to others."
Zhuge Yan shook his head and refused without hesitation.
Just as he said, it's best to stay away from such a "lone star".
Just as Zhuge Yan turned his head to leave, an old voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"You brat, why haven't you come back yet after all this time?"
Zhuge Yan frowned, and saw an old man with white hair walking slowly forward with a hunched back behind Li Muxuan.
Quanxing, Ghost Hand—Wang Yaozu!
