Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

The restaurant was closed.

-------because it hadn't opened in the first place, there was no need to put up any signs.

This was a relatively secluded location, and there was already a sound-proofing formation arranged around it, so there was no fear of any commotion.

Qin Xiao Lou was sitting on top of a chair with his eyes tightly closed, his expression continuously changing.

"No…"

"Don't… don't…"

"We're just drinking, don't do anything else…"

He was mumbling non-stop.

His tone was growing increasingly quicker, his body was also squirming uncomfortably.

At this point, a female voice called out:

"Enough"

Qin Xiao Lou immediately turned silent, his body went limp, and he started to snore.

-----he was now fully asleep.

The Tianma girl who used the charming technique stopped, bowed to Xie Dao Ling, then swiftly stood to one side.

Xie Dao Ling said with an indifferent expression: "Who would have thought that the descendants of the past Profound Immortals would now have to resort to such means against living beings?"

Li An stood out and explained: 『 This is merely our means of defense, in truth, we would not let ourselves go and willingly fall into depravity 』

"Oh? Are your circumstances tough?" Xie Dao Ling's tone softened a bit and asked.

『 The heavenly beings of the previous Samsara have all been executed, only our Profound Immortal lineage remains, surviving day by day 』 Li An closed her eyes and lowered her gaze.

Xie Dao Ling looked at her closely and asked: "I've kept quiet this entire time because I thought that this was my disciple's own business, but now that you've shown yourself, I need you to answer one thing: Why can your Inner Sight attach itself on my disciple's body and continue following him?"

Killing intent abruptly appeared from her body, which was fully directed towards Li An.

The entire restaurant fell silent.

Li An paused briefly before casually replying: 『 We of the Profound Immortal lineage made a Profound Immortal vow with him to act in conjunction for both of our mutual benefits during the Samsara Clash for Supremacy 』

Gu Qing Shan, having finally found the chance to speak, quickly stood up, cleared his throat, and explained everything that had happened up to this point.

The battle against Qi Yan, eliminating the demonized people, and cooperating against the two High Sequence Apocalypses, all of them were remarkable feats, and Xie Dao Ling just sat there silently listening.

"So that's how things were, it seems everything had been a misunderstanding" Xie Dao Ling casually commented.

"That's indeed the case, Shifu" Gu Qing Shan affirmed.

"Hm… You are my disciple, and the original members of the Profound Immortal lineage have all most likely perished, the fact that their descendants have been able to become your allies can also be considered our karma, the karma of the legitimate Heaven realm's inheritance"

Xie Dao Ling's tone had gradually returned to normal, it was no longer as frigid as before.

Both Li An and Gu Qing Shan silently sighed in relief.

-------when the Tianma arrived earlier, they just happened to run into Shifu as she came out.

Seeing how the descendants of the Profound Immortals acted, especially when they were trying to seduce her disciple, she was only one second away from eradicating them all.

It wasn't until just now that they were able to clearly explain everything.

Xie Dao Ling stood up and walked next to Qin Xiao Lou, asking him:

"Tell me, how many times did you bring your junior brothers and sister out to drink in brothels?"

"I've never brought the junior sisters, and I only brought third brother out once" Qin Xiao Lou's eyes were still closed and subconsciously answered.

"Tell me in detail everything that happened" Xie Dao Ling continued.

The Tianma girls then turned their gazes away to look at the decoration within the restaurant, acting as if they weren't listening.

Li An simply gave Gu Qing Shan a sidelong glance.

Gu Qing Shan lowered his gaze, wishing that he had something to drink right now.

Qin Xiao Lou then slowly explained: "Explain in detail everything that happened… nothing happened at all. At first, we were sitting in the main lobby, drinking while listening to their singing. But when the owner had us go upstairs to choose the girls we wanted, I was panicking a bit"

"Because of how much money I was spending at the time, I didn't bring enough with me. If we had gone up that way, we would definitely be chased back down, causing harm to the reputation of our Bai Hua sect------ but since that was the first time I brought junior brother out, I still wanted to maintain my pride, I was stuck between a rock and a hard place"

Xie Dao Ling then asked: "Then, what about your third brother"

Qin Xiao Lou answered: "Third brother… he appeared very calm when he was looking upstairs, but he was using an empty cup to drink with me------- I assume that he was panicking even more than I was, and come to think of it-------- while we had no money to our name, how could we throw away our precious male chastity so easily?"

"And so, we just left"

The restaurant was filled with stifling silence.

Xie Dao Ling then struck Qin Xiao Lou's forehead with her palm.

Qin Xiao Lou slowly woke back up.

"Huh? Third brother, did I fall asleep just now?"

"-----wait a minute, where did so many beautiful fairies come from? Did Shifu accept more junior sisters into the sect?"

He asked with a clearly excited expression.

Gu Qing Shan covered his face.

Li An and the Tianma girls around her all lowered their heads.

Xie Dao Ling narrowed her eyes and stared straight at Qin Xiao Lou:

"For better or worse, you are still the second-ranking disciple of the sect, you should be the role model for all of your junior brothers and sisters. How could you only spend effort on playing around without cultivating yourself?"

Qin Xiao Lou complained: "Shifu, I've been cultivating myself this entire time, there's no chance for me to play around at all"

Xie Dao Ling turned to Gu Qing Shan and asked: "How does he usually cultivate?"

"It's like this… we have a kite… in the sky…"

Gu Qing Shan explained.

Xie Dao Ling praised: "Hm, as expected of a teaching method that I thought of, but it is still not strict enough"

"Not strict enough?" Qin Xiao Lou was a bit surprised, then suddenly felt a bad feeling.

Xie Dao Ling turned around to look at Li An and said: "In the past, the Profound Immortal lineage was responsible for punishment and rewards within the realm, I'll leave you in charge of this matter. If the method you come up with can satisfy me, I don't mind keeping you by my side"

Li An appeared ecstatic and respectfully replied: 『 Understood! 』

…

A while later.

"Shifu, I'm heading out" Gu Qing Shan said.

"Hm, the Elements Purgatory is full of danger, make sure to take care of yourself" Xie Dao Ling replied.
