The Masked Strength of Sect's Trash : The Lazy Second Senior Brother chapter 27

Chapter 27: Tianyu Peak Just Needs One Pervert

Was she going to die?

Just as Xiao Yi thought she was about to be engulfed by the lava, the scene in front of her suddenly changed.

She found herself back in Lu Shaoqing’s hall.

Looking at everything around her, Xiao Yi felt like she had just returned from another world.

It felt like a dream.

"Se-Second Senior Brother!"

Xiao Yi saw Lu Shaoqing standing in front of her.

Lu Shaoqing yawned and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Squeak!"

Little Red chirped from atop his head.

It then flew onto Xiao Yi's shoulder.

Lu Shaoqing shook his head and sighed, "Young people these days, why are you all in such a rush?"

"Can't you wait a little longer?"

"Why did you have to barge in so hastily?"

Still shaken, Xiao Yi stammered, "Second Senior Brother, w-what was that just now?"

Lu Shaoqing didn’t explain. He simply said, "In the future, don't just walk into other people's homes like that. This isn’t something to joke about."

"You're lucky it was my place you barged into. If you had gone to our Senior Brother's place, you might have been skewered by a flurry of swords."

If it had been before, Xiao Yi would have dismissed his words.

But after what she just experienced, she didn't doubt Lu Shaoqing’s warning.

Xiao Yi obediently nodded. After this experience, she realized her mistake.

If Lu Shaoqing hadn’t appeared in time, she would have likely met a grim fate.

This must have been an array or a restriction set up by Second Senior Brother to prevent intruders.

Seeing Xiao Yi still in shock, Lu Shaoqing patted her on the head and said, "Alright, it's over now."

"There's no need to be scared."

Then he scolded Little Red, "You dumb bird, go find her a piece of candy."

Xiao Yi immediately pouted, "Second Senior Brother, I'm not a child."

"I saw you almost crying just now. Did you wet your pants?"

Xiao Yi's face turned red. "Second Senior Brother, you pervert!"

Lu Shaoqing scoffed, "Pervert? Even if I were a pervert, no one but a deviant would pay attention to a flat-chested princess like you."

"Ugh!"

Xiao Yi's face turned even redder.

Knowing she couldn’t out-talk Lu Shaoqing, she quickly changed the subject, "Second Senior Brother, you said you would take me to the Sword Cave today."

Lu Shaoqing said, "Go by yourself. You're not a kid anymore, are you?"

Xiao Yi hesitated and said, "I-I’m scared."

The experience in the Sword Cave last time left a deep impression on her, and she still felt a lingering fear.

Lu Shaoqing sneered, "And you say you're not a child? Getting scared so easily?"

"Second Senior Brother, come with me! You’re responsible for me now!"

Lu Shaoqing spat, "Pah! Don’t say things that could be easily misunderstood."

"Your Second Senior Brother doesn’t have a Dao partner yet. If your words cause trouble, I'll give you a good beating."

Xiao Yi snorted, "Aren’t you really close with Senior Brother? Why don’t you just stay together?"

Lu Shaoqing's expression turned serious. "Stop talking nonsense."

"My relationship with your Senior Brother is one of mutual animosity, not friendship. What do you mean, 'close'?"

"Say another word of nonsense, and I'll beat you up right now."

Xiao Yi didn’t believe a word of it.

She wasn’t stupid; she had been at Tianyu Peak for more than two months and knew the truth.

Shaocheng, Ji Yan, and Lu Shaoqing.

The three of them often bickered, sometimes even drawing swords on each other.

Especially Lu Shaoqing, who showed no respect for anyone, calling Senior Brother Ji Yan crazy and even arguing with their master.

But she knew that this was a sign of their deep bond.

She really liked this kind of atmosphere.

There were no strict rules here—everyone did as they pleased, with a lot of freedom.

Seeing how Lu Shaoqing refused to admit it, Xiao Yi found it amusing.

"Second Senior Brother, hurry up and take me to the Sword Cave."

She wanted to get stronger, to earn the right to stay at Tianyu Peak without bringing shame to her master and senior brothers.

She wanted to truly become a part of Tianyu Peak.

"Alright, alright."

"Being impatient won’t help. Take it slow," Lu Shaoqing continued lecturing her as they walked, "Don’t follow in your Senior Brother's footsteps."

"Your Senior Brother is a weirdo. One weirdo at Tianyu Peak is enough."

"Just cultivate steadily and maintain a normal mindset."

Xiao Yi asked, "What about you, Second Senior Brother?"

"You're younger than Senior Brother, but your strength is almost on par with his."

Lu Shaoqing raised his head proudly and said, "You can’t compare yourself to me."

"People are different."

Seeing Lu Shaoqing's smug look, Xiao Yi wrinkled her nose, "If you can do it, why can't I?"

Lu Shaoqing replied, "Because I’m a genius."

To Lu Shaoqing, this was a boast.

But to Xiao Yi, it was the truth.

She acknowledged that Lu Shaoqing was indeed a genius.

How else could he stand toe-to-toe with Ji Yan?

In Xiao Yi's eyes, the only reason Ji Yan could defeat Lu Shaoqing was because his cultivation level was higher.

If they were at the same level, it was uncertain who would win.

Xiao Yi huffed, "You two may be geniuses, but I'm not. That’s why I have to work even harder."

Lu Shaoqing said,

"Hard work is important, but don’t rush things."

"No matter how hard you try, you won’t catch up. You might as well take it easy."

Xiao Yi was speechless, "Second Senior Brother, are you encouraging me or discouraging me?"

"I’m just being honest."

"Is this Tianyu Peak?"

The Peak Lord of Chiyue Peak addressed the people behind him, "Yes, this is Tianyu Peak. Don't go wandering around or causing trouble."

"Yes, sir."

"Uncle Xiao Chuang, do you know where Xiao Yi is?"

A young girl, about the same age as Xiao Yi, spoke up.

Xiao Chuang gave her a cold look and said, "Xiao Qun, don’t think you can act recklessly just because you’re the granddaughter of the Great Elder."

"Xiao Yi is no longer just a young lady of the Xiao family. She’s now a personal disciple of Tianyu Peak and a member of the Lingxiao Sect."

"I know you have some issues with her, but I’m warning you—don’t stir up trouble here."

"If anything happens, I won’t protect you."

The young girl, Xiao Qun, quickly lowered her head after being reprimanded, "Yes, Uncle Xiao Chuang, you’re right."

Xiao Chuang snorted and didn’t say anything further.

He said, "You’re here to represent the Xiao family in congratulating Ji Yan, so mind your manners."

Then he turned to a young man and said, "Boyuan, come with me."

"The rest of you wait here and don’t wander around."

After speaking, he left with Xiao Boyuan, who was the family's representative.

Xiao Qun pouted in displeasure, "Hmph, I wanted to meet Young Master Ji Yan too."

"Damn it, why didn’t they take me?"

Someone beside her immediately commented, "Perhaps the Deputy Family Head did it on purpose."

"After all, Xiao Yi is his niece..."
