Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System
Chapter 261 Adventurers' Association"Hmph! What are you doing, big sister? This big brother here clearly does not have cultivation! What are you trying to bring him to the association for?!" the boy protested, extremely adamant about bringing Yang Lujia with them.
Seeing the kid's outburst, Yang Lujia just smiled. This was a kid. Unlike before, he would not argue with him as long as he did not go overboard. "What's this association that your little brother is trying to say?"
"Ah?!" The girl was surprised by Yang Lujia's question and only remembered that she forgot to tell Yang Lujia about this fact. "I'm sorry for not telling you, big brother, but this association is the Sacred Region's Adventurers' Association. It was an association especially created for rogue cultivators who want to experience the world. Of course, there would also be those from prestigious families that would register with them!"
The Adventurers' Association was like a guild that put up various types of missions for their registered adventurers. The girl also told him that this association was very famous among cultivators throughout the four regions.
Yang Lujia was a bit taken aback when he heard this and looked at the two little kids contemplatively. It seemed like they were from some deep background. Otherwise, they would not know any of the matters from the First Region and especially the Autonomous Region which had been mysterious all this time.
"Is this association related to the Church of Light here?"
"Ah?!" the girl reacted. "You don't even know this, big brother? The association had dealings with the Churches of Light several times. They even had partnerships at times!"
"I see, but how close are they in terms of relationships?" he asked.
"I should say…" the little girl trailed off and started counting her fingers… "Ten out of ten?"
Yang Lujia found her cute and just smiled. He now had a destination in mind of where he would go. "What're your names, little fellows?"
"Who are you calling little?! Big sister, I can't stomach him anymore! How dare he call me little?!" The boy stomped his feet and harrumphed.
HMPH!
Yang Lujia did not know whether he should laugh or cry. The temper of this little dude seemed to be very explosive.
"Little brother, you don't need to resent big brother like this! Look at him, isn't he pitiful? He doesn't have any cultivation at all!"
OUCH.
Yang Lujia's face turned strange, but he somewhat felt warm when he heard the little girl's sentiments for him. It seemed like this girl was a kind one. No matter what, finding kind people in this world could only be countered by hand.
"Little girl, I apologize for implicating you both, but this big brother is curious about the Adventurers' Association, so may I have the honor to be your company?" Yang Lujia cupped his fist and smiled at the little girl.
The little boy did nothing but just crossed his arms and stopped his foot with a harrumph.
HMPH!
"Alright, big brother! You also don't have to be polite! I should be the one to apologize. My little brother is like this since he was little. He's got a bad temper but he's actually a kind person!"
Yang Lujia did not say anything and just smiled.
And so, the three of them went off to their destination.
"What are your names, by the way?" Yang Lujia broke the silence and asked the little girl with a side glance. "I'm called Yang Lujia. You can just call me Big Brother Yang."
"Hmph! Who wants to call you big brother?! You're too weak!"
Yang Lujia did not mind the little boy's words and just looked at the little girl warmly.
The little girl's face flushed red after being watched by Yang Lujia's handsome face. This big brother was really too handsome! She couldn't bear it!
'What a naughty kid,' Yang Lujia said as he laughed in his heart shamelessly. 'Am I that handsome for you to blush like that? Hahaha!'
"Big brother, I'm called Jian 1, while my little brother is called Jian 2!"
"Huh?" Yang Lujia's brows slightly furrowed. There was something fishy about their names, he surmised.
Seeing Yang Lujia blanking out, the little girl tugged his pants lightly and looked at him. "Big brother… why are you spacing out?"
"Uh…" Only then did Yang Lujia break out from his thoughts. "I'll call you Jian 1 and Jian 2, then!"
When he saw the little girl's smile with closed eyes, he could actually see a trace of teardrop from her eyes, but she covertly hid it from him. However, with his strength, the little girl wouldn't be able to hide it from him.
Yang Lujia was curious now.
'What is their background? Why did I feel these two are pitiful?'
Finally arriving in front of the association, Yang Lujia was quite appalled. The little girl and the little boy disappeared from his sight and he couldn't find a trace of them at all. It was like they disappeared into thin air after arriving here.
He was only mesmerized by the appearance of this association's building. That was only for a moment and at that certain moment did he not discover how they disappeared.
Breathing out air, he walked to the large door of the association. What welcomed him was a bunch of people drinking and singing happily with their boozes and friends at their respective tables. This was the kind of scene he would see in fantasy animes where adventurers would gather and eat.
It seemed like this association also offered alcohol and food. A bit interesting.
When he saw the line at the counter, he immediately placed himself in the line and waited for his turn. He did not want to create trouble, despite having so many people watching his handsome face and thinking he was rather peculiar. However, they merely sneered thereafter. They thought Yang Lujia did not have any cultivation. Trying to register in the association by being just a mortal was a joke, but they did not bother him.
Fighting inside the association was prohibited.
Only those with the authority could have the right to settle this kind of thing.
"Hey, kid! What are you trying to do by lining up there? You don't even have any cultivation level! What right do you have to stand there?!" a young man, who just entered the association, immediately made a ruckus.
His face was ugly to the extreme. However, the ladies around him did not dare say this thing. After all, this young man, with the way he was embroidered seemed to be indicating that he was from a noble family—like that Young Master Hao.
Even the association did not dare provoke him.
Yang Lujia did not bother him, because he thought that the association would settle this. However, he was surprised that the lady at the counter was acting as though she did not hear anything. 'I thought they would not allow disputes in the association? Or perhaps this ugly young man did not yet make any move against, that's why they turned a blind eye on this?'
Nevertheless, he still ignored it and was only looking forward to registering himself in the association. This place wasn't a bad place to start.
"Hey, did you not hear me, pretty boy?!" The young man gnashed his teeth and sprinted near Yang Lujia. "What right do you have to stand there? What right do you have to have that beautiful face?"
Yang Lujia was speechless when he heard the last question from this ugly young man. 'It turned out he was only jealous of my appearance?'
"What right do you have, huh?" the young man asked, his gaze as though bearing into every pore of Yang Lujia. However, the latter maintained a deadpan face.
Yang Lujia only looked at him momentarily and just continued to line up as was customary.
"How dare you ignore me, you mortal!" the young man shouted and urged his men to drag Yang Lujia out of the association.
The lady at the counter only looked at this situation and was even amused. She did not attempt to do anything, but she was truly shocked in her heart when she saw Yang Lujia's flawless face. She even had the urge to prostrate in front of him. It was just that he was a mere mortal and a mere mortal like him wouldn't be able to satisfy her.
Yang Lujia had long been speechless by this ugly young man. However, he still ignored him. It was not fitting of his status to argue with an ant.
"You! Men, drag him out for me!"
