Chapter 2
Chapter 2: Of Course, I Must Forcefully Acknowledge You as My Master:
Silence!
Everyone stared at Gu Feng in disbelief.
Ye Fan secretly laughed inwardly.
This Gu Feng was always arrogant, and now, just to show off, he had uttered such outrageous words.
The elders of the Lingyun Sect looked extremely displeased.
But out of respect for their status, they didn’t want to argue with a junior.
Gu Yansheng frowned angrily at Gu Feng. “What nonsense are you spouting? Get inside right now!”
He knew in his heart that with those words, Gu Feng had just ruined his chance to join the Lingyun Sect.
“Hmph, since the Gu family looks down on our Lingyun Sect, we won’t stoop to associate with you!” A grand elder of the Lingyun Sect waved his sleeve and left with his people.
Before leaving, Ling Xue turned back to look at Gu Feng.
But she saw him smiling and chatting with Gu Yansheng, not even sparing her a glance.
If Gu Feng had been reborn, how could he not even look at her?
“Xue’er, what’s wrong?” Ye Fan walked beside Ling Xue, concerned.
Hearing Ye Fan address her like that, Ling Xue said hastily, “Ye Fan, once you enter the sect, I’ll be your senior sister. From now on, we should address each other as such.”
Ye Fan was taken aback and felt a bit embarrassed.
Before, she didn’t mind him calling her that.
Was it because Gu Feng had called him a servant today?
So what if he was a servant?
His mother had been Gu Feng’s wet nurse, so he was considered part of the Gu family by association.
But Gu Yansheng had never made him do any servant’s work.
Instead, he was given an education and enlightenment.
So he never felt like a servant.
What was so great about Gu Feng anyway?
He only had a good father.
In the future, once he was in the inner sect of the Lingyun Sect, Gu Feng would be nothing.
…
“You even look down on Lingyun Sect. Do you want to ascend to heaven?” Gu Yansheng was almost driven mad by his son’s arrogance.
He had worked hard, using many connections and resources, to get Gu Feng into the Lingyun Sect.
Who knew…
The gifts were given, the money spent.
And the people were offended.
“Relax, Dad. Your son aims to ascend to heaven. Don’t worry, the Lingyun Sect isn’t the only sect out there recruiting disciples.” Gu Feng smiled faintly, trying to comfort Gu Yansheng.
This old man, despite being only at the Golden Core Realm, had managed to block a Nascent Soul attack for him.
He had died right in front of Gu Feng.
Though it was a minor aspect in the novel, it left an indelible mark on Gu Feng’s life.
“Keep boasting. Besides the Lingyun Sect, I have no other connections.” Gu Yansheng, though angry, wasn’t going to let the past sour his relationship with his son.
He was already thinking about finding another way to get Gu Feng into another sect.
“Don’t worry, I have a plan.” Gu Feng was confident.
He had already gone through most of the plotline. The system had records of the plot after his death.
So he knew what was to come.
Following Ye Fan into the Lingyun Sect was fine, but it was meaningless to him.
Suppressing Ye Fan?
No need, he was just a frog in a well.
Now, Gu Feng had the strength from his future self, already at the Void realm.
This novel’s world was simple with seven realms in total.
He was now in the first realm, which consisted of thirty-six continents. Only by reaching the Nascent Soul Realm could one ascend to the second continent, and so on, ascending with increased strength.
When he died, he had already reached the sixth realm.
And the Lingyun Sect was only in the third realm at its highest, and even then, just a small sect.
When Gu Feng said he looked down on it, he meant it.
“By the way, system, what’s the deal with Ling Xue?” He had noticed something off about Ling Xue.
[Her consciousness was reborn with you, but only her consciousness, not her strength]
Even just a reborn consciousness was troublesome.
His unusual behavior today probably gave her some clues.
But that didn’t affect him.
Because the sect he had his eyes on was the largest on the Lingyuan Continent, the Zhengyuan Sect!
Coincidentally, there was an opportunity to join the Zhengyuan Sect right in front of him.
…
(Unknown Area)
At this moment, the great elder of Zhengyuan Sect had gone to Lingyun Mountains to heal his wounds.
In a cave, Liu Fengqing sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
But suddenly, he sensed a disturbance in the formation outside his cave.
He opened his eyes sharply, and saw a young man in a black robe standing with his arms folded, looking at him.
“Liu Fengqing?” The young man spoke, not inquiring, but affirming.
“Who are you?” Liu Fengqing looked at him warily.
“I’m here to take you as my master.”
Once Gu Feng confirmed his identity, he cleared a space beside Liu Fengqing and sat down cross-legged.
According to the system, to deceive the Heavenly Dao, he had to have a clear and legitimate background.
A Golden Core Realm rogue cultivator could casually produce a Void Realm disciple?
Impossible.
So he had to follow the formalities.
After consulting the system, he found that this grand elder of the Zhengyuan Sect was the most suitable target.
“I refuse.” Liu Fengqing didn’t even think about it and directly refused.
He had been out of the sect for years, never dealing with sect affairs.
Nor did he take on disciples, so he didn’t want to accept any now.
But he didn’t know that this was exactly what Gu Feng wanted.
Gu Feng chuckled coldly, “Refuse? What if I insist?”
