Chapter 555 Seven Masters
"Junior brother, do you want me to cut you again?" Jiang Yunying gave Lin Ping a strange smile.
He was clearly implying that he had to show off in front of everyone after getting a good deal, which made Jiang Yunying very unhappy.
Fortunately, the peak master of Cold Moon Peak still carefully considered Lin Ping's words and did not delve into their meaning.
“Senior sister, I want to be cut off,” Mao Shikeng answered, raising his hand.
“Junior brother? You…” Jiang Yunying stared at Mao Shikeng in disbelief, unable to guess what he was thinking.
At that moment, two female disciples happened to have a question to ask Jiang Yunying, and they truly heard Mao Shikeng's answer.
"Junior Uncle wants to be cut off by Junior Aunt? He's actually that kind of person?" Two female disciples hurriedly ran away, probably to spread this shocking news throughout the entire Cold Moon Peak.
"Don't go yet, it's not like that. I don't want to be cut off by my senior sister, I just envy Lin Ping who was cut off." Mao Shikeng explained loudly, but unfortunately, the two female disciples were quite skilled in martial arts and had already disappeared.
"So it turns out you have this quirk, senior brother. I'm not very good at this job, but I used to be a pig butcher. I'm accurate and ruthless, and I can help you fulfill your long-cherished wish," Lin Ping teased.
"Alright, that's enough. Shi Keng, don't castrate him yet, lest it encourage other disciples to follow suit. In some ways, you really need to learn from your junior brother; you can't just focus on cultivation." The Peak Master of Hanyue Peak said coldly, not giving Mao Shi Keng a chance to refute Lin Ping.
Learn from Lin Ping? Mao Shikeng was a hundred percent unconvinced.
But he had to obey his master's orders, so he reluctantly nodded.
"Lin Ping, you should also learn swordsmanship from Shi Keng. Don't keep bothering your senior sister; she's very busy," the peak master continued.
"Not disturbing Senior Sister? Wouldn't life lose its fun? Since I can't disturb her during the day, surely I can at night?" Lin Ping thought to himself, his expression even more respectful than Mao Shikeng's.
The more the Peak Master of Cold Moon Peak looked at Lin Ping, the more pleasing he became, and he even had a strange thought: "If only this kid hadn't been cut open."
Handsome men are loved anytime, anywhere.
There's no way around it, Lin Ping is that handsome guy with a silver tongue, he can charm any female animal.
"It's getting late, everyone go and cultivate." The peak master said calmly, "Lin Ping, I've heard that you've mastered the Lotus Flower Appearance technique. I'll personally teach you how to see through the fog."
Now that Lin Ping has become a disciple of the peak master, she has a responsibility to teach him swordsmanship, but her doting attitude is a bit excessive.
"Thank you for your guidance, Master," Lin Ping said respectfully.
Before long, Lin Ping was taken by the peak master to a secluded place in the back mountain.
"Master, can I cultivate here every day?" Looking at the breathtaking scenery before him, Lin Ping felt relaxed and happy.
This area is exclusively for the peak master. It's an honor for Lin Ping to come here even once. As for whether he can come every day... yes!
"Hmm? Still calling me Master?" the Peak Master said with dissatisfaction. "There's no one else here, so there's no need to be so formal."
"Yes, Senior Sister!" Lin Ping said with a sly grin.
"You are my disciple, so of course you are qualified to cultivate here," the peak master said confidently.
"Won't I be subjected to some kind of unspoken rule? That would be unfair to my wife!" Looking at the peak master's flamboyant smile, Lin Ping felt a surge of panic.
He admitted that the peak master of Hanyue Peak was well-maintained and quite beautiful, but he really wasn't into that kind of thing, and besides, she was Jiang Yunying's master, which violated ethical norms.
"Don't be afraid, I've already been cut from her heart!" Lin Ping secretly encouraged himself.
Just as he was lost in thought, the peak master of Hanyue Peak had already used the Vermilion Bird Sword in his hand to perform the most exquisite "Viewing Flowers in the Mist" dance.
"Did you see clearly? It's my fault for going too fast. This time I'll slow down so you can look carefully."
Lin Ping's bewildered look said it all. It wasn't because the peak master was fast, but because he was distracted.
"Did you see it clearly this time?" the peak master continued to ask.
Lin Ping shook his head frantically: "Even if you slow it down ten times, I still can't see it clearly. With your martial arts skills, I'm afraid there isn't another one like you in the entire Lotus Palace."
"Don't be arrogant. I'm only at the early stage of the Red Lotus Realm, not even in the top five of the Lotus Palace," the peak master said softly.
"Are experts at the Red Lotus Realm so worthless?" Lin Ping asked, dumbfounded. "Just how many Red Lotus Realm experts are there in the Lotus Palace?"
“There are at least eight people. Among them, the Palace Master and the Holy Maiden are the strongest. I am one of the Peak Masters of Beidou Peak, Feihong Peak, Law Enforcement Hall, Jiangzhong Hall, and... In short, we are all of similar strength.” The Peak Master of Hanyue Peak paused for a moment before speaking.
"Is there still that person lurking in Yingtian Prefecture? He's actually a master of the Red Lotus Realm," Lin Ping worried to himself.
He had long suspected this would happen; in fact, he believed that the man was stronger than Mo Youying, as evidenced by the fact that he killed Lu Zhan that night.
"Why do you say there are at least eight people? Could it be that Lotus Palace has hidden experts?" Lin Ping asked疑惑地问道.
"This matter is confidential and must not be told to outsiders." The peak master of Hanyue Peak became mysterious and whispered in Lin Ping's ear, "There are two other reclusive masters in Lotus Palace, whose strength is no less than that of the palace master. However, they have disappeared for many years and their whereabouts are still unknown."
Lin Ping nodded, thinking to himself, "Are they Jiang Lanfeng's senior brothers and sisters?"
He had heard Jiang Yunying mention the existence of these two people, and because of Jiang Yunying, Lin Ping harbored hostility towards them.
"Senior sister has other matters to attend to. You should continue your cultivation here. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask your senior brother for guidance." With that, the Peak Master of Cold Moon Peak gracefully departed.
"Could I ask Senior Sister Yunying for guidance?" Lin Ping shouted at the top of his lungs.
The peak master of Hanyue Peak neither agreed nor refused, which suggests that he was displeased.
"Ha! Women!" Lin Ping was filled with mixed emotions, but he could only obey his master's orders and diligently cultivate the skill of "Seeing Flowers Through the Mist".
He was extremely familiar with this sword technique, and with the internal energy left behind by Jiang Hongling, he could cultivate it with twice the result with half the effort.
He preferred to practice the Crimson Sun Sword Technique to the Lotus Sword Technique.
Anyway, it's a quiet place, and no one will find us.
As dusk fell, Lin Ping returned to his residence and found Jiang Yunying waiting for him outside the door.
"Junior Brother, how was your swordsmanship practice today? How about we practice spear techniques tonight?" Jiang Yunying giggled at Lin Ping.
"Hmph, a woman's words are deceiving; don't even think about luring me in." Lin Ping slammed the door shut, not daring to face Jiang Yunying's temptation.
This was clearly tickling his heart with a feather.
If it could really satisfy his craving, that would be fine, but it was under the watchful eyes of everyone, so how could Lin Ping dare to break into Jiang Yunying's room late at night?
Seeing Lin Ping flee in disarray, Jiang Yunying was overjoyed. She thought teasing her husband was a very interesting thing, even more enjoyable than consummating their marriage.
"Wife, you better not let me catch you off guard, or I'll definitely use my sharp marksmanship to shut you up!" Lin Ping said angrily through the wall.
