The Daily Task of Preventing My Disciple from Turning to the Dark Side

Chapter 57: "Master, come and sit down!"

Translator: Claire.KK

Early in the morning, Mu Chen waked up and looked at the youngster in the soft couch, feeling puzzled when they exchanged places. Gu Yuejue was growing up day by day so that the couch was not big enough to contain him. It was ok to have a nap but wouldn't be comfortable to sleep in.

Mu Chen sat up, took the blanket off his body to cover Gu's without saying a word and then went out quietly.

His eyes closing and the corner of his mouth curved, Gu Yunjue held tighter the blanket with Mu Chen's smell and fell asleep again.

Mu Chen released little Fu An's soul from the Soul Suppression Stone. Maybe it was because he had been imprisoned so long that his divine soul had become hyaline. To help him reincarnate could finally pay their master-and-servant relationship.

When Mu Chen was back, Gu Yunjue was still in sleep. Mu Chen hadn't taken part in the Pills Concocting Competition in his last life but somehow had defeated and replaced the original first in order to get a top pill.

Now, there were many good herbs available for pill alchemists prepared for the competition. Therefore, Mu Chen also felt itchy to try and wanted to arrive early. However, because little disciple hadn't recovered from injuries and Mu Chen felt unsafe to leave Gu alone, he hesitated for a while and pocked slightly with his finger at his disciple's chest, "Get up!"

The youngster just remained unmoved.

Formerly, Mu Chen would definitely take off the quilt and wake little disciple gently. But now he just kicked Gu Yunjue off the soft bed with his long leg and said in a cold voice, "Lazy bug!"

Gu Yunjue turned over in the air and fell on the bed with one hand holding his head, looking at Mu Chen drowsily with grievance, "Master has never treated me like that!"

Mu Chen snorted, thinking to himself, 'It's just because I'm always too good to you evil disciple so you are spoiled to conceive licentious thoughts.'

When they reached the assembly square there had been many people standing in a long queue. As the grand competition was a valuable opportunity, numerous people expected to come to the fore through this contest and certainly the big families wanted to pick out some excellent pill alchemists to serve themselves.

There were even some formally dressed people sitting behind the tables around the square for recruitment, with clan or sect flags fluttering beside them.

Mu Chen looked about indifferently and found a tiny black house set before each queue, thinking to himself that they must be the spots for preliminary contest. Seeing that many people queuing before the houses and wouldn't come out before a long time once getting inside, Mu Chen couldn't help frowning his brows, 'When will it be my turn at such speed?'

Seeing Mu Chen and Gu Yunjue come over, others seemed unavoidably defensive. People only heard that Mu Chen was the Grand Elder in Lofty Cloudy Sect, ranking the highest position among the six palaces; usually he didn't care too much about secular affairs but loved traveling around freely like an idle immortal belonging to no sect. However, he should come to participate in the competition together with his disciple, which even confused most disciples in Lofty Cloudy Sect. No matter why he came over, Mu Chen was absolutely the front-runner in this competition.

However senior he was, Mu Chen had to queue fairly as others did!

Secretly pleased at Mu Chen's situation, people stood closer to Mu Chen on purpose, 'Although you sit up high in a lofty position with snowy robe fluttering in the air, you have to obey the rules like us.'
