Chapter 3: Do You Have Any Objections?:
In an instant, the pressure around them grew and Liu Fengqing felt like he was about to suffocate.
All the surrounding spiritual Qi was forced out, and even his bones started to creak.
Liu Fengqing was horrified, and his eyes almost bulged out.
He could sense that Gu Feng had no intent to kill at this moment.
A single thought could make a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator fall?
Liu Fengqing couldn’t describe his feelings.
The next second, he collapsed to the ground, and the surrounding spiritual Qi rushed back in.
“Actually, I don’t like forcing people, but there’s no other way. I know you’re someone who doesn’t yield to pressure, so I had to show you my strength.” Gu Feng said as he reached out his hand to help Liu Fengqing up.
“Who exactly are you?” At this moment, Liu Fengqing had become compliant.
Just one glance had brought him to the brink of death.
This was definitely not someone from this realm.
It was very likely someone from the upper realms.
“Why would someone from the upper realms come to the lower realms and seek me as a master?” He couldn’t figure it out and had to ask.
“You don’t need to know that. I just want a master, and I think you’re suitable.” Gu Feng casually grabbed a handful of spiritual Qi, compressed it with his spiritual sense, and formed a pill.
“A Qi Gathering Pill.” Liu Fengqing gasped.
He watched Gu Feng toss the pill to him and hurriedly caught it.
“This can remove the hidden injuries in your body.” Gu Feng said indifferently.
Liu Fengqing was a bit puzzled, “You just want to be my disciple?”
With his strength, he could be the master.
Why did he want to be a disciple instead?
Liu Fengqing’s mind was racing with conspiracy theories.
Could it be that some elder from the upper realms had offended someone and came to the lower realms to avoid disaster?
If that were the case, it could be an opportunity for the sect.
Such an elder, even a single hair from him, would be thicker than their waist.
Like the Qi Gathering Pill in front of him.
Condensed from pure spiritual Qi, the pill’s fragrance seemed to remind him that consuming it would immediately cure his hidden injuries.
“Then, can you swear an oath to the Heavens?”
Without hesitation, Gu Feng swore an oath to the Heavens in front of Liu Fengqing, “I, Gu Feng, swear that if Liu Fengqing of Zhengyuan Sect accepts me as his disciple, I will not harm Zhengyuan Sect. If I break this oath, may I be struck by lightning.”
However, if Liu Fengqing didn’t accept him, he would personally destroy the Zhengyuan Sect.
As soon as the oath was made, a mark from the Heavenly Dao descended.
This mark signified both the success of the oath and a decrease in the Heavenly Dao’s vigilance towards him.
With the mark of the Heavenly Dao on him, the Heavenly Dao would naturally consider him one of its own.
Who knew if the troublesome system might get him targeted by the Heavenly Dao.
How powerful would the lightning in the first realm be to harm him?
Moreover, his oath was to the Zhengyuan Sect, not its disciples, so this Heavenly Dao oath was essentially useless, merely a reassurance for Liu Fengqing.
“Very well, once we reach the sect, we will hold a formal ceremony.” Liu Fengqing said, feeling reassured.
Liu Fengqing was no child; he understood the nuances.
But what could he do?
Not accept him?
Then he’d be waiting for the sect disciples to come and collect his body.
So the two sly foxes smiled at each other as if they were truly master and disciple.
“By the way, isn’t the Zhengyuan Sect recruiting outer disciples around here? Let’s handle that as well.” Gu Feng didn’t forget that his father was still worried about him.
These matters were usually beyond Liu Fengqing’s concern.
Hearing Gu Feng, he nodded in agreement.
…
(At the Gu Family residence)
Ye Fan was packing his things.
Gu Feng’s wet nurse, Ye Fan’s mother, wiped her tears and took out a jade pendant from her bag.
“Xiao Fan, I’m useless and couldn’t prepare much for you. Once you enter the sect, cultivate diligently.” She handed the jade pendant to Ye Fan.
“We really need to thank Young Master this time.”
She rambled on, and at first, Ye Fan listened carefully.
But when she mentioned Gu Feng, he got annoyed, “What does this have to do with Gu Feng?”
“If it weren’t for the master pulling strings, the Lingyun Sect wouldn’t have come. Xiao Fan, you need to be grateful.” The wet nurse wiped her tears, looking disapprovingly at Ye Fan.
“Moreover, we’ve relied on the Gu family all these years…”
“Alright, Mom, what are you saying? I’m already a disciple of the Lingyun Sect. I’ll repay the Gu family’s kindness, and besides, this has nothing to do with the master. Even without the Gu family, I would still have joined Lingyun Sect.”
Ye Fan finished packing and was ready to leave.
The people from Lingyun Sect were still waiting outside for him.
Because of Gu Feng’s outrageous words today, the people from Lingyun Sect were displeased.
They didn’t even enter the house.
Ye Fan had heard that several elders had badmouthed Gu Feng to other sects.
This time, Gu Feng was truly in trouble.
No matter how capable Young Master Gu was, he was just a Golden Core Realm cultivator. How much could he bribe for Gu Feng?
Ye Fan thought for amoment and said, “Mom, you’re right. Before I leave, I should say goodbye to Young Master Gu and Gu Feng.”
He smiled as he went out.
But when he reached the front hall, his smile faded.
“Gu Feng is highly talented, so our grand elder of the Zhengyuan Sect has decided to accept him as an inner disciple. Master Gu, please help Gu Feng pack his things and prepare to depart.”
An elderly man with an immortal demeanor was speaking to Gu Yan.
The surprise was so sudden that Gu Yan was stunned.
The Zhengyuan Sect!
This was a truly prestigious sect.
