"We are bad guys, Bao Bao wants to beat up ten bad guys."
Bao Bao shouted, waving his fists.
"Are you stupid? We are bad guys, we are supposed to bully good people."
"Oh oh, Bao Bao wants to beat up ten good people and snatch ten civilian girls."
The entire merit hall fell silent. Everyone held their breath, looking at the group in astonishment.
Yes, everyone knew they were the sons of the Immortal Venerables and possessed Origin-level talent, but they hadn't considered that these four were also the most formidable prodigal sons.
One might ask, which prodigal son had such a powerful background?
"You, do you understand what I mean?"
Wan Qianxin asked the old man again.
"I... I understand. Please, take it."
The old man had worked for tens of thousands of years and had never encountered such a situation. He was completely at the mercy of his disciple.
But he dared not say anything. If these children beat him up, he would have no recourse for justice.
Hearing this, Wan Lei also quietly took away his Ten Thousand Star Dust Formation jade slip.
"Hey, Wan Lei, you still need to pay your merit points."
The old man glared.
Hmph, this old man truly bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Wan Lei, imitating Wan Qianxin's posture, stepped onto the stool and said arrogantly,
"Do you know who I am?"
The crowd behind them couldn't hold back their laughter, all bursting into giggles. Wan Lei had mimicked them perfectly.
"Aren't you Wan Lei!"
"Yes, but I'm also the strongest殿子 (Dianziz) of the Five Elements Hall."
"That's still a disciple."
"Saint Lei is my direct ancestor. I, too, am a prodigal son."
"I..."
The old man felt even more wronged.
What kind of people had he met today?
Hmph, you think Wan Lei is easy to manipulate? Don't forget that Wan Lei is the kind of ruthless character who, finding the price of teleportation arrays too high, directly sealed the owner of the array and robbed him of all his money.
"Let's go."
Wan Lei waved his hand and walked out with a swagger that acknowledged no one. The disciples on the path hurriedly made way for him.
At this moment, Wan Lei suddenly felt that being a prodigal son wasn't so bad.
He used to hate prodigal sons and would kill them on sight. But now...
People dislike privilege, but they also crave it. Ultimately, it depends on whether they are the ones who possess it.
The group arrogantly left the merit hall and flew outwards.
"Qianxin, is this okay? Isn't it too bad? Bullying people is wrong."
Bao Bao, having lost his earlier imposing manner, looked at Wan Qianxin with some concern.
"What are you afraid of? The Five Elements Hall is our family's. What law have we broken by taking our own family's things? Besides, these divine techniques are free to replicate. We can easily copy tens of thousands of copies, so we aren't depleting the Five Elements Hall's resources. Not even the Heavenly King himself could interfere."
"Right, our parents are the Heavenly King. What's there to fear? We will be prodigal sons to the end."
"Being a bad person is so cool. No wonder the Immortal Venerables used to say they only do evil and not good, they understood."
"We want to be great prodigal sons."
Han Xiaoyun slung an arm around Bao Bao's shoulders, looking like a little ruffian.
"Then, if that's the case... Bao Bao wants to snatch ten civilian girls."
"What do you want civilian girls for?"
"Books say bad guys do that."
"Hahahaha..."
The four children chatted and laughed. The three Fire Phoenix girls and Dada watched with great interest from behind. They had definitely chosen the right people to follow.
Want anything, just take it. It felt incredibly satisfying just thinking about it.
Wan Lei quietly asked Fang Xiaoyu,
"Was I handsome just now?"
Fang Xiaoyu rolled her eyes directly.
"Handsome my foot. What's up? Is the great devil of South Mansion City, who once incurred heavenly tribulation, now going to wreak havoc in the immortal realm?"
"Hahaha, then I'll snatch you, this civilian girl, first."
"Peh, peh, peh, there are children here. Don't get handsy."
"Back then, Sui Xiaohang was also one of the two great devils of South Mansion City. I wonder how he's doing."
As everyone was chatting and laughing, Xia Yubing's spirit jade suddenly chimed with a pleasant bell sound, startling the four little ones.
"Could it be that Mom and Dad found out we were doing bad things and are going to punish us?"
Bao Bao's big eyes were filled with timidity.
"No, if Mom and Dad were going to punish us, they would have started fighting directly."
Xia Yubing took out her spirit jade and answered,
"Hello, Auntie? Going to get pills? Rewards for us? What rewards? Mission rewards? Rewards for Origin-level talent? That's great, great, we'll go right away.
Oh, right, Wan Xiaolei and Fang Xiaoyu also have Origin-level talent. Do they get rewards? They do? That's wonderful. We're going now."
Xia Yubing looked at everyone happily.
"Let's go, let's go to the Pill Hall. Auntie said there are pill rewards for us."
"Then hurry up and go."
"Off we go."
The four little ones excitedly flew towards the Pill Hall.
"Wait a minute, who is your aunt?"
"The Hall Master of the Pill Hall."
Everyone understood upon hearing this. She was one of the other Four Great Beauties.
Of the Four Great Beauties of the Five Elements Hall, three were in the immortal realm, and one princess was in the ghost realm. Among these three, Wan Lei had already met Xi Sha and Ruo Shui Qiu, but he had yet to meet the mysterious Hall Master of the Pill Hall.
The group arrived at the main peak of the Pill Hall and headed towards the magnificent main hall in the center.
The Pill Hall was completely different from the other nine halls. Firstly, the Pill Hall was personally founded by the Golden Immortal Venerable, as he himself was a Celestial-grade alchemist. Secondly, the disciples of the Pill Hall rarely undertook external missions; their job was to refine pills.
They didn't have to fight and kill like the people from other halls. Their lives were peaceful and harmonious. Even the Hall Master of the Pill Hall ranked relatively low on the Creation Tower, as their Hall Master competed not on combat prowess but on alchemy skill.
Ahead was the Pill Hall, but at the entrance to the Pill Hall, a person stood with their back to them, blocking their path.
"You fatso, get out of the way."
Xia Yubing, who had just awakened her prodigal son superpowers, immediately yelled.
The fat man in front suddenly turned around with a flourish, fanning himself with a swish of his fan. He smiled gracefully at the crowd.
"Who is this? So ugly."
Bao Bao exclaimed in shock.
Wan Lei looked at the person before him, stunned. Anyone else appearing here would have been reasonable, but his presence here made absolutely no sense.
The person before him had a face full of pockmarks, a large, round face, a bulbous nose, and a physique like a fat pig, truly disgusting.
"What's wrong, Young Master Lei? Seeing my handsome and dashing visage, are you involuntarily falling into endless self-pity?"
Sui Xiaohang smiled smugly.
"How did you get here, kid?"
Wan Lei stared in disbelief.
"No, how did you come to the immortal realm?"
Not only him, but even Fang Xiaoyu and the three Fire Phoenix girls were surprised.
"Naturally, by ascending."
Sui Xiaohang said proudly.
"You're a Nascent Soul cultivator, and you can ascend? Has the cosmic order gone mad?"
