The Daily Task of Preventing My Disciple from Turning to the Dark Side Chapter Nine (Part 2)

Yue Ming Ze led the sect members in searching the forbidden area but they did not find any signs of an intruder. A cultivator of the Synthesis stage, is that person visiting friends? Who would believe that?

“Could it be that child was wrong?” An old man said doubtingly, stroking his beard.“Not even a breath has been detected which is very strange.”

“we need to ask elder Mu Chen about it.”

Yue Ming Ze frowned. “Your sect master will personally investigate.”

A middle-aged practitioner who was holding a fan, Zheng Xuan Su, laughed: “I have heard that Wan Jian sect wants Mu Chen to become dao-companions (TN: essentially a marriage), I do not know if the rumors are true?”

Zheng Xuan Su, according to the generational hierarchy, was indeed Mu Chen’s brother but he was just an ordinary disciple while Mu Chen was an inner disciple. They had the same master but while Mu Chen was tutored in his master’s special techniques, Zheng only learned the sect’s general skills. The two’s relationship is not good but also not bad. Mu Chen’s temperament is such that if other people don’t bother him, he is too lazy to talk to them.

Yue Ming Ze was embarrassed and said: “Although female cultivators are few and most do not care to get along with men, the union of masculine and feminine elements if the correct path although Shishu Mu Chen…well, after all, he is a man.”

Although the marriage alliance between the Lofty Cloud Sect and Wan Jian (Ten Thousand Sword) Sect
would make their relationship stronger, he has never thought that Mu Chen would ever marry. Moreover, Yu Tian Yi is already in the Immortalization Stage and after Ascension…Would Mu Chen be bullied?

Yue Ming Ze pulled a face, although he is unable to prop up the sect, he still wouldn’t sell his martial uncle.

Zheng Xuan beat his hand with his folding fan, remembering the past, “Our master was also worried that when he ascended (TN: Ascension level means ascending to a higher plane) Younger Brother Mu Chen would be bullied. Master wanted to find a dao-companion for him but at that time Younger Brother Mu was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so although master looked around for a powerful cultivator the difference in their levels would be too great. Master was never able to find a good match. This might be a good chance.”

“That was before,” said Yue Ming Ze gravely. “Now, there’s no need for anyone else to protect him.”

Zheng Xuan’s hands paused and his face momentarily showed a bit of embarrassment. Alchemists were considered weak but he saw Mu Chen in the Assembly for the Trail. Now no one dared to consider him an ordinary alchemist. After a while, Zheng Xuan’s expression became more normal and he said: “It would not be good for you to directly refuse this kind of thing. Perhaps you should ask Younger Brother Mu what he thinks.”

Yue Ming Ze maintained his composure, sighing internally. Actually, what Zheng Xuan said made sense, he truly did not have the right to make the decision for Shishu Mu. All he can do is to seize the chance to present the proposal to him.

Yue Ming Ze hid his hand in his sleeve and once again used his fingers to calculate the probability that Mu Chen will be angry.
