TDDDMFM Chapter 27

 "Idiot!"

Yan Bingxue, who was driving ahead, rolled her eyes when she heard that.

This silly kid, Little Handsome, was incurable with his chuunibyou.

Even a fool could tell that Zhou Xiaobei was teasing him, yet this kid still believed it.

Wielding a sword across the world? He'd struggle to even get out of bed!

Zhou Xiaobei couldn't help but laugh and cry as he looked at his little brother.

A talented guy, but his brain...

Oh well, what a waste!

"I don't know any Tai Chi Grand Shift or Nine Yin White Bone Claw. Those are all nonsense. You actually believe I'm joking with you?" 

"But it's not right, Xiaobei, you're really amazing!"

"That's because... I've practiced the Vajra Scripture taught by my master."

"I've heard of the Vajra Sutra?"

Zhou Xiaobei was speechless.

"Anyway, I don't care. Xiaobei, you have to teach me, and don't worry, I won't freeload. I'll pay tuition, fully guided, for thirty thousand a month. How about that?"

"Thirty thousand!"

Zhou Xiaobei's eyes lit up.

This kid, Little Handsome, was really rich.

"Deal."

Money doesn't grow on trees.

Little Handsome danced excitedly, as if he had eaten honeycomb.

Yan Bingxue was completely defeated by Little Handsome's antics and couldn't be bothered to deal with him. She turned to Zhou Xiaobei and said, "Although you managed to avert disaster this time, Qin Yumen is like a mad dog. Once he bites, it's deep and it's personal. After this failure, he won't just let it go. He'll continue to seek revenge on you. Be careful during this time."

Of course, Zhou Xiaobei knew that Qin Yumen wouldn't let him off easily, but he wasn't afraid at all. He was just a dandy. If he dared to cause trouble again, he'd break his legs.

Seeing Zhou Xiaobei's nonchalant attitude, Yan Bingxue couldn't help but feel annoyed.

This guy was too arrogant!

Humph, let him go.

Someone like Zhou Xiaobei, who was inexperienced and didn't know the evils of the world, needed to suffer a bit and learn a lesson.

...

They arrived at the hotel and Yan Bingxue treated Zhou Xiaobei and Little Handsome to a big meal. After dinner, despite Little Handsome's protests, she threw him out onto the street and drove Zhou Xiaobei back to the hotel.

The car stopped in front of the hotel, and Yan Bingxue rolled down the window, her face serious. "I still want to remind you to be careful recently. The Qin family is not easy to deal with. Unlike us and the Shen family, the Qin family doesn't play by the rules. They have their hands in both black and white, and they are a pack of wolves who will do anything to achieve their goals."

"Alright, I got it!"

Zhou Xiaobei waved his hand.

Even though Yan Bingxue had said this much, he still didn't care.

Back in the hotel room, Zhou Xiaobei took out the "Rain Cleansing the Mountain Roots" painting, and the rich spiritual energy made him feel refreshed.

"Now that I have the first magic weapon, I should be able to set up a simple spirit gathering array."

Just do it.

Zhou Xiaobei placed the "Rain Cleansing the Mountain Roots" painting on the floor and took out seven seven-star lamps from his luggage. According to the number of the Big Dipper, he arranged them around himself. Sitting cross-legged, he circulated his true qi...

Poof!

The seven-star lamps ignited without fire!

The Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Formation was created by Zhuge Wuhou in ancient times. He once used this formation to borrow the east wind at the Battle of Red Cliffs and extended his life at the Wuzhang Plains. Unfortunately, fate cannot be changed, and in the end, despite his efforts to deceive the gods and spirits, Zhuge Wuhou died from the backlash.

There are things predetermined by fate, beyond anyone's control.

Zhou Xiaobei set up the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Formation not to borrow the east wind or extend his life, but to gather spiritual energy from this world and deceive the heavens and the seas, ensuring the successful formation of the Spirit Gathering Array.

As the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Formation opened, Zhou Xiaobei took out a 20-centimeter bronze ruler from his pocket. This ruler, called the Sky-Measuring Ruler, was one of the treasures left to him by his third master. Holding the Sky-Measuring Ruler in his hand, he closed his eyes, focused on his nose, and meditated on his heart. Drawing symbols in the air, mysterious ripples appeared in the void.

Drawing symbols in the void is the highest skill of a sorcerer!

Suddenly, Zhou Xiaobei opened his eyes.

A green light flashed in his eyes, and a faint red light emanated from the Sky-Measuring Ruler as the runes appeared.

Then, like tadpoles, the runes continuously fell into the "Rain Cleansing the Mountain Roots" painting.

Merging into it.

After a quarter of an hour...

Boom!

A muffled sound reverberated in the living room. At the same time, Zhou Xiaobei clearly felt a large amount of rich spiritual energy converging from all directions, ultimately gathering on the "Rain Cleansing the Mountain Roots" painting.

The entire living room was at least five times more spiritually rich than before!

"Hoo..."

Zhou Xiaobei exhaled a breath, feeling at least several times more spiritual energy around him than before, and felt relieved.

Of course, there was still a gap from what he expected.

Although the Spirit Gathering Array was formed and the spiritual energy became dense, this amount of spiritual energy could barely support daily cultivation. To break through to the Profound Passage Realm, there was still a considerable gap.

It was still a bit of a stretch to rely on one magic weapon to form the Spirit Gathering Array!

"It seems that I still need to continue searching for new magic weapons. At least I need to gather seven magic weapons so that the Spirit Gathering Array can be completely stable, and the formed spiritual energy will be sufficient for cultivation and breakthroughs."

Having made up his mind, Zhou Xiaobei relaxed his mind and began to cultivate.

...

At night, at the old mansion of the Yan family in the suburban area.

In the living room.

Yan Shikai frowned and asked his precious granddaughter sitting beside him, "Xue'er, are you saying that Xiao Bei, the divine doctor, had a conflict with the Qin family's Qin Yumen, so today the Qin family sent someone to deal with him?"

"Yes, grandpa, that's right. And it's said that Zhou Xiaobei even forced Qin Yumen to kneel in public and called him 'dad'." Wen Ting Duo said speechlessly.

Yan Shikai couldn't help but laugh and cry. "Sure enough, he's the disciple of Shu Tianxin, the divine doctor. He's truly bold and skilled. He effortlessly dealt with fifty knife-wielding men and even turned the tables... I haven't met such a talented young man in a long time!"

Yan Bingxue rolled her eyes. "Grandpa, don't boast about him too much. And don't say this in front of him. I'm afraid his tail will stand up, and he'll become even more lawless in the future."

"By the way, grandpa..." Yan Bingxue changed the subject, looking worried. "He offended the Qin family, a group of wolves. None of them are good to deal with. I'm afraid they will continue to target Zhou Xiaobei."

"Should we send a few bodyguards to protect him?"

Yan Shikai shook his head. "Xiao Bei, the divine doctor, is extraordinary. Although the Qin family is a group of wolves, it's difficult for them to deal with him. Now I'm more worried about the Qin family's siblings. If they continue to trouble Zhou Xiaobei, they may end up shooting themselves in the foot in the end."
