Chapter 28 Three Years
Jin Renfeng was also very satisfied with the result of the competition.
With a thought, he called out the Samsara Mirror from his consciousness to check the information on the power of cause and effect.
[The current causal power is points]
During this year, Jin Renfeng accumulated a total of points of causal power.
"If we continue at this pace of one step a year, we will be able to travel back to the fox demon world in about five years."
Jin Renfeng pondered in his heart.
“But in the future, I will no longer have the chance to compete with Linghu Chong for the position of the eldest senior brother, and the speed at which I can acquire the power of cause and effect will also be greatly reduced.”
"We still have to think of other ways to increase the speed of obtaining the power of cause and effect."
No matter what, Jin Renfeng wanted to accumulate 10 points of causal power as soon as possible.
At least it can allow him to return to the fox demon world.
After all, no matter what, the world of fox demons is still a world of immortals, where there is hope for immortality.
But The Smiling, Proud Wanderer is just a world of martial arts. No matter how talented you are, dying of old age here is the only outcome.
Jin Renfeng doesn't want to be trapped and die in this world.
"We can use Junior Sister as well. When the time comes, the hero and heroine will be able to fight together. We will definitely be able to obtain more power of cause and effect."
Looking at the ignorant Yue Lingshan, Jin Renfeng made up his mind.
. . . . . .
Winter passed and spring came, and in the blink of an eye, three years passed slowly.
Huashan, Chaoyang Peak, under a pine forest.
"Little Junior Sister, do you know where Second Junior Brother is now?"
Jin Renfeng asked loudly.
"I don't know." Yue Lingshan responded with her hands behind her back.
"That's strange. Master said that Second Junior Brother came here with you to pick mushrooms. How come you are the only one here and there is no sign of Second Junior Brother?"
Jin Renfeng murmured.
As if he had thought of something, his face became serious and his expression became unsightly.
"Could it be that the guy left you here alone and ran away?"
"Is this guy an idiot? My junior sister is so young, yet he left her here alone. If I find him this time, I will not let him go."
Seeing Jin Renfeng furious, Yue Lingshan quickly waved her hands.
"No! No! Second Brother is right here. He just had a stomachache and went to the toilet."
"Really?" Jin Renfeng's expression eased a little, "Since he is here, I will wait for him here."
"Big Brother, is there something urgent that you want to discuss with Second Brother?" Yue Lingshan asked.
"Nothing, I just want to practice sword with him." Jin Renfeng said lightly.
“Then Senior Brother, don’t wait!” Yue Lingshan advised, “Senior Brother Linghu has a severe stomachache this time. I don’t know how long he will need to go to the toilet. Maybe it will take an hour. By then, Senior Brother will be delayed from practicing swordsmanship.”
Jin Renfeng frowned, and seeing Yue Lingshan's eyes wandering and flickering, he immediately knew that something was fishy.
If his guess was correct, this statement must be a lie. The junior sister was covering for Linghu Chong and wanted to trick him away.
At a time like this, a sudden counterattack would expose the two's little scam.
However, Jin Renfeng did not intend to expose it.
Sometimes, being confused is also a kind of knowledge.
"Okay, let's let him go this time!"
Jin Renfeng said calmly, "When Junior Sister sees Second Junior Brother, please let me know and ask him to come find me."
Yue Lingshan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I will definitely tell Second Brother."
She assured, patting her chest.
Jin Renfeng chuckled, rubbed Yue Lingshan's head, then took out a colorful cloth doll from her arms and handed it to Yue Lingshan. "Wow! A cloth doll!" Yue Lingshan immediately smiled and happily took the doll.
"You said you wanted this doll last time. I bought it from the town at the foot of the mountain two days ago when I went down the mountain to do some shopping."
Jin Renfeng said softly.
"How's it going? Do you like it?"
"Of course I like it. Thank you, Senior Brother."
Yue Lingshan didn't want to let go of the doll once she got it.
"Ah That's good!"
After retrieving the information of the power of cause and effect from the Samsara Mirror and seeing that the power of cause and effect had arrived, Jin Renfeng was very satisfied.
Jin Renfeng turned and left. Yue Lingshan poked her head out and waited until she was sure that the figure had disappeared from her sight before she shouted into the pine forest.
"Second Brother, the eldest brother has left, please come out quickly!"
The sound was clear and echoed among the pine trees.
After a while, Linghu Chong popped his head out from behind a pine tree.
"Finally gone!"
Linghu Chong walked up to Yue Lingshan and said with a sense of relief.
At this moment, he was covered in grass debris and looked very dirty, as if he had just crawled out of the bushes.
Yue Lingshan was curious and asked,
"Second Brother, why are you so afraid of the eldest brother? I don't think the eldest brother is that scary!"
Inadvertently, she raised the doll in her hand.
Linghu Chong made a bitter face, sighed, and said:
"Junior sister, you don't know, our senior brother is really a troublesome person."
"He loves to practice swordplay on weekdays. He is a sword fanatic. It was fine before. He just practiced swordplay alone."
"However, since he became the eldest disciple, he has become even more aggressive. He likes to challenge me to a duel whenever he has nothing to do, calling it a competition. But with the power of his magic sword, how can I be his opponent?"
He spread his hands, helplessly.
"I am inferior to him in all aspects of internal energy and swordsmanship. Often, I am defeated by his sword in one round."
"But even so, he still wanted to test his sword skills on me, even suppressing his internal strength to compete with me in swordsmanship. He forced me to find ways to deal with his swordsmanship."
"If not, I'll just give you a beating from the scabbard."
"This situation is really unbearable. I can't stand it, so I naturally want to stay away from him."
Yue Lingshan pursed her lips and smiled.
"Big Brother is also hoping that you can improve your swordsmanship, so he is training you."
"I don't want to be tempered." Linghu Chong said casually.
"Since you, senior brother, don't want to practice sword, just say it directly. At worst, you can go find father. He will definitely be able to stop senior brother." Yue Lingshan gave Linghu Chong some advice.
"It's not like I haven't looked for it before. But Master and the others are partial to Senior Brother. When I went to complain, Master thought I was lazy and that Senior Brother was right."
Linghu Chong muttered.
"One time I was pushed to the limit and went straight to the Zhengqi Hall to cry and complain that the senior brother abused and bullied me."
"Really? Senior Brother has done such a thing?" Yue Lingshan couldn't believe it.
"Of course it's fake." Linghu Chong chuckled, "Even if I was lazy and didn't practice swordplay, Senior Brother would just hit me with the scabbard, and the beating wasn't severe, so it can't be considered bullying."
"I said this just to make things worse so he won't bother me anymore."
"It was because of my explanation that Master allowed Senior Brother to go to the cliff of reflection and reflect on his mistakes for half a year."
“Half a year?” Yue Lingshan looked surprised. “I’m only seven years old now. Half a year is really too long.”
Then she asked again in confusion,
"But I think Senior Brother hasn't changed at all. He's still the same as always!"
"That's right!" Linghu Chong held his head in his hands, his voice weak. "Even after being locked up for half a year, the eldest brother still hasn't changed at all. But he didn't blame me for lying, he just practiced sword skills with me as usual."
