The Ancestor of our Sect Isn’t Acting like an Elder

Chapter 159 - Interlude, Jialan’s Dislike



159 – Interlude, Jialan’s Dislike

Boring, so boring.

Jialan, who has been watching from the sidelines, puckered her lips, feeling unhappy from the bottom of her heart. Well, she dislikes boredom.

Strictly speaking, Jialan is not a Vajrayana person.

She is the adopted daughter of a certain Vajrayana Sect Master.

She grew up in Vajrayana, learnt Vajrayana martial arts, and was allocated Vajrayana resources.

After the death of her adoptive father, the new Vajrayana Sect Master didn’t abandon her — she only had Earth Realm cultivation base at the time, which is dispensable for the huge Vajrayana.

With nowhere to go, she stayed in Vajrayana.

She didn’t know at the time that the new Vajrayana Sect Master was purely interested in her talent, which is why he didn’t expel the outsider.

Jialan, who has exceptional talent, grew under the wing of Vajrayana. First a Heaven Realm master, and then a Grandmaster — it only took her 100 years to become the youngest Grandmaster in history.

After becoming a Grandmaster and obtaining the title of Asura’er, she still didn’t leave Vajrayana. She isn’t an ingrate.

Despite being an outsider, she became the guardian of Vajrayana — Asura’er’s status is really peculiar.

But Jialan dislikes boredom. Vajrayana, which advocates asceticism, is a boring place. When the disciples don’t recite scriptures and cultivate body and spirit, they study and practice martial arts.

The dull people and dull place make her feel like she’s suffocating.

Occasionally, Jialan would lie on the window sill of her room and peer at the birds that happened to land on a branch, listen to them sing, and watch them flap their wings, thinking it would be nice if she was a bird. If she could be free like a bird and do as she pleases, would it no longer be boring?

However, Vajrayana needs her. She can’t up and leave.

This is not to say that Vajrayana cannot do without her. However, a large part of Vajrayana’s power stems from her — a Grandmaster. Once she leaves Vajrayana, the existing balance of power in the Western Regions will be broken.

In fact, she doesn’t have much affection for Vajrayana. But that is the place where her only relative — even though they are not related by blood — is buried. Moreover, before her adoptive father died, he instructed her, “look after Vajrayana, don’t let it be destroyed by anyone”. Therefore, she cannot watch it collapse and fall apart.

Her adoptive father gave her everything that she has now, so she’ll endure the boredom and stay in Vajrayana until she pays off the debt. She has stayed for 100 years already.

When will it be paid off? Jialan doesn’t know.

In 100 years, Jialan has left Vajrayana only a handful of times, for fear that if she looks away, it will be gone. Well, just like her adoptive father. In just a blink of an eye, her adoptive father abandoned her and left.

However, her patience is reaching its limit.

She can hardly bear the boredom at Vajrayana.

It was at this time that Jialan unexpectedly learned that the current Vajrayana Sect Master plans to send people to intervene in Hua Dynasty’s Martial Demon Realm Trial by Fire.

— this may alleviate a bit of my boredom!

Once this idea sprouted in her mind, it could no longer be restrained! After thinking about it day and night, Jialan finally looked forward to the day the Martial Demon Real Trial by Fire group she organized without Vajrayana’s permission sets off. Despite the opposition of the current Sect Master, she resolutely left Vajrayana holy land, which is full of gold statues, and came to Martial Demon Realm.

Jialan had high expectations for this “trip”.

However, she was disappointed.

The Western Regions is a chaotic place, where regime change is frequent. Finally, there was a fairly powerful regime, but it was easily defeated by Hua Dynasty. Not only is the political situation in the Western Regions chaotic, but the Martial World is as well.

Is there anything that isn’t chaotic in a chaotic world? No, there isn’t.

The battle that takes place at Mirror Moon Lake right before her eyes is really dull, really dull indeed.

What she was looking forward to was not this ordinary scene, but something more intense, more exhaustive, more capable of stirring her heart.

For example, a fight between Heaven Realm masters, or an all-out war between Hua Dynasty and Martial Demon Realm.

Mhm, that should be much more interesting.

But what can be done to see such an interesting scene?

Inadvertently, Jialan’s eyes fell on red.

Bright, eye-catching red.

I remember her… she seems to be Merak Temple’s current Temple Master? Jialan isn’t too sure.

“Hey!”

She didn’t specially call out to a specific person, but she knows —

“Holy Maiden, what are your instructions?”

— that someone will surely respond. She is already used to it.

The one who responded was a certain Vajrayana Protector. As for his seniority, Jialan is not clear about it.

After all, she has been alive for a long time, and the faces in her memory have been constantly passing away and changing. She really can’t remember clearly. At first, she would try to remember some new faces that appeared in her life, but then she gradually became numb to it.

Why should I remember things that are destined to fade?

“Is she Merak Temple’s current Temple Master?”

Jialan pointed at the girl in red, who is rushed into the battlefield of several martial practitioners and a Heaven Demon at a lightning-fast speed — a slow speed in her view.

“Yes, she is Qiqi — Merak Temple’s current Temple Master. She has Earth Realm cultivation base. If fact, she is the weakest Temple Master in Merak Temple’s history.”

“Qi? Is she related to old man Qi Guiyuan?”

After Jialan became a Grandmaster, she once fought against Qi Guiyuan, The outcome of the fight left her very unhappy. She still remembers Qi Guiyuan’s despicable face.

A shameless old fellow. Even until now, Jialan still spurns Qi Guiyuan’s character in her heart.

“She’s a direct blood relative.”

“So that’s the case…”

Jialan nodded in understanding. At this moment, her originally dispirited eyes gradually revealed a certain brilliance.

“Hey, I heard that in order to avenge some disciple, ‘Natural Disaster’ once stormed — hmm… Earthly Sword Gate? Heavenly Fist School? Anyway, she stormed another sect and ran amok? Did such a thing happen?”

In the long-quiet Hua Dynasty’s Martial World, Xue Qilin storming Heavenly Sword Gate and killing Hua Tianji can be said to be a major event. It spread throughout Hua Dynasty and became a hot topic of conversation among the populace, and even reached the ears of Asura’er in Western Regions’ Vajrayana holy land.

“Such a thing did indeed happen.”

“Oh –?” Jialan dragged out the sound, “It looks like things have become interesting.”

The corners of the girl’s mouth curved and painted a sweet smile on her face.

Suddenly, she had an idea, an idea to make things interesting.

“It’s great, really great.”

She stated in a satisfied tone, as if she got a toy she likes.

Jialan slowly touched her cheeks. Unexpectedly hot, her cheeks have become unnaturally red, as if she is drunk. She suddenly realized that her mood seems a bit more lively.

Then, she picked up a stone.

A plain stone.
