Chapter 390: Kid, You're Really Something!

The tall, thin disciple quickly extended both hands, respectfully took the token, only glanced at it, and immediately returned it.

This was just a formality—that purple robe was the best token.

"So it's Senior Brother Su!" He turned around and shouted toward the mountain gate, "Xiao Liu! Hurry up and come out! Take Senior Brother Su to Senior Uncle Qin's cave dwelling! Serve him well along the way, and don't you dare be negligent!"

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old youth ran out at the sound, curiously sizing up Su Ming. When he saw that purple robe, the youth's eyes brightened. He quickly lowered his head and walked respectfully to Su Ming's side to lead the way.

Along the path, the Beast Peak disciples they encountered all turned to look.

"A True Disciple from Formation Peak? What's he doing here?"

"Isn't that... Su Ming from the Repair Hall? I heard he came back from the Northern Border and was directly promoted to True Disciple!"

"The one from the Cold Pool?"

"That's right! It really is him!"

Several younger disciples cast envious and admiring glances but didn't dare approach to strike up a conversation. They just stood at a distance, whispering among themselves.As the two passed by a spirit beast garden, a middle-aged disciple who was grooming a spirit deer raised his head and happened to catch sight of that dazzling purple.

He froze for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and then a delighted smile broke across his face. He put down his work and hurried over.

"Su Ming! It's really you!"

Su Ming turned and recognized the person. It was Old Zhou, a Beast Peak disciple he had met briefly before at the Administration Hall.

Old Zhou walked up close, instinctively wanting to pat Su Ming on the shoulder, but his hand stopped halfway when he saw that purple robe. He sheepishly withdrew it and rubbed his hands together on his own clothes. "Ah, look at me... I should be calling you True Disciple Su now!"

Su Ming smiled. "Senior Brother Zhou, you're too polite. Just call me Su Ming."
