Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Li Lan said, word by word, "I'm just reminding you that the Transmission Elders are coming. Is that alright?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhongwen instinctively replied, "No, no problem..."

Li Lan nodded, then took Xin Zhiping's hand and turned to leave.

Watching his departing figure, Zhou Zhongwen took a long time to recover, and an indescribable anger instantly surfaced in his eyes.

I was actually frightened by this handyman?!

I will definitely kill you all!

He clenched his fists, a cold glint in his eyes!

In the afternoon.

Zhou Zhongwen, along with all the servants of the Sutra Repository, waited on the first floor.

"Today is the day for new disciples to choose their cultivation techniques."

Elder Luo, who was in charge of assessing the new disciples that day, walked in with a group of newly recruited disciples.

Ling Shuixiong and Lan Xin followed closely behind him, clearly indicating their high status, while Song Ziwen, Wang Daniu, and others were also present.

"Brother Heng!"

Upon seeing Li Lan, Wang Daniu spoke excitedly.

Ling Shuixiong also cast a glance at Li Lan, a look of contempt flashing in his eyes. He then turned to Lan Xin beside him and said, "Lan Xin, do you see that? This is what happens to menial servants!"

Lan Xin bit her lower lip lightly, remaining silent.

"Alright, the first and second floors are filled with cultivation techniques that our clan can practice. You can choose whatever you like. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!"

As soon as Elder Luo spoke, many disciples went into the bookshelves and began to choose books for themselves.

"Heng-ge, how have you been lately? Are you settling in well here?"

Wang Daniu, however, found Li Lan with a silly grin, secretly took out a pill from his pocket, stuffed it into Li Lan's hand, and said, "I saved this up, it's a Celestial Spirit Pill, it's very good for the body, it can strengthen the body and prolong life, here, you try it!"

Li Lan couldn't help but chuckle, returning the pill to him and saying, "I have no aptitude for cultivation; giving it to me would be a waste."

"You can use it yourself. When you become an immortal and touch upon the forbidden path, then you can give me the pills."

Li Lan didn't want to hurt him either.

Wang Daniu nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Heng, I'll definitely do my best!"

"I'll go pick out a cultivation technique first..."

He went among the bookshelves, searching left and right, unsure of what to choose. Li Lan calmly picked up a book and handed it to him, saying, "This one should be pretty good."

This technique is the most suitable for Wang Daniu.

Wang Daniu took it, his eyes immediately lighting up, and said, "Thank you, Brother Heng!"

"These techniques are all too outdated."

At that moment, a voice of dissatisfaction rang out.

Ling Shuixiong bowed to Elder Luo and said, "Reporting to Elder, none of these cultivation techniques are suitable for this disciple!"

Elder Luo glanced at it and nodded. Ling Shuixiong's aptitude was quite good. The cultivation methods in the Scripture Pavilion were indeed only barely suitable for him and could not be optimally matched.

Even Lan Xin was the same.

"Why has the Sutra Repository made no progress all these years?"

Elder Luo couldn't help but speak.

As the elder who transmits skills, he clearly felt that the update speed of the scriptures in the family's scripture library had slowed down in recent years.

—In fact, since Xin Zhiping has united everyone in recent years and stopped the intense infighting that used to take place, the speed of scripture updates has indeed slowed down.

"Reporting to the elder, this...this is mainly due to these servants, who are lazy and shirking their duties!"

Zhou Zhongwen hurriedly spoke up, then suddenly said, "By the way, a few days ago, it seemed that a new Xuan-level technique was about to be born inside the demon skeleton on the fourth floor. I'll have someone copy it down immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Elder Luo nodded and said, "Very well."

He and his men waited.

Zhou Zhongwen turned around, a sinister smile flashing across his face, and said, "Xin Zhiping, who do you think is the most suitable to copy the scriptures on the fourth floor?"

His words were highly threatening.

Clearly, he failed to force Xin Zhiping to comply this morning, and now he is deliberately taking this opportunity to teach Xin Zhiping a lesson.

Xin Zhiping's expression changed slightly, but she spoke slowly, "I'll go by myself."

Zhou Zhongwen was immediately startled, and his face showed anger and embarrassment. What did Xin Zhiping mean by this? Was she going to die rather than submit?
