After establishing the master-disciple relationship, Zhu Yuxian finally smiled, "Since you have joined my tutelage, you shall accompany me to Jade Immortal Peak for your cultivation. If you have any doubts on normal days, feel free to come and ask me anytime."
Hearing this, Lu Chengfeng replied awkwardly, "Master, I have recently gotten married and am entangled with many disciples from Bixiao Peak, so it’s hard to just abandon them."
"I humbly ask my master’s permission to continue staying at Bixiao Peak. Should I encounter difficulties, I’ll seek your guidance."
Zhu Yuxian looked at him with a playful expression, "I heard that you, little rascal, married your own master’s wife?"
Before Lu Chengfeng could respond, she giggled. Her semi-transparent black gauze thin dress swayed, as did her water-snake-like waist, displaying her alluring charm and making her front tremble.
"I wonder if you are a devoted lover, or just a lecher?"
As she spoke, she gently traced Lu Chengfeng’s forehead with her slender jade-like fingers. The icy touch made him shiver all over.
"Master, you misunderstand. I and my master’s wife... No, it’s Suyi she..."
"Enough, I have no interest in your personal affairs." Zhu Yuxian’s expression changed in an instant from smiling to suddenly cold, "I give you three days to settle all your private matters."
"After three days, formally come to Jade Immortal Peak to formally become my disciple. By then I will impart to you that Secret Skill."
With that, she swayed her waist like a weak willow in the wind, creating a faint fragrance before quickly disappearing.
After Zhu Yuxian left, Lu Chengfeng finally let out a long breath, only then realizing that his back was already soaked with cold sweat.
"Good brother, I always knew you’d enter the same sect as me." Zhou Tong, who had been pretending to be deaf and dumb on the side, also wiped the fake sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile, "From now on, we’re truly fellow disciples."
Lu Chengfeng, gritting his teeth, said, "Senior Brother, you’re so sneaky. I see you want someone to share with you the female master’s imposing might!"
Zhou Tong laughed heartily, trying to cover his embarrassment, "Nothing of the sort, you’re overthinking. I’m not that kind of person."
"I anticipated that with your talent, master would surely want to accept you under his wing to inherit the mantle of our predecessors."
As he said this, his tone carried a slight sorrow, "I practiced the predecessors’ Secret Skill for years, yet gained nothing, only barely stepping in, truly disappointing."
"I hope you can have achievements in that Secret Skill, to inherit the mantle of our predecessors."
Lu Chengfeng said with a mix of laughter and tears, "Senior Brother, you overestimate me. Since even you struggled, I likely won’t succeed either."
Zhou Tong patted his shoulder, "Junior Brother, just go on cultivating. I believe you will achieve something."
Lu Chengfeng was speechless, unsure where Zhou Tong got such confidence, but it was not the time for further discussion.
After conversing for a while longer, the two agreed to meet at Jade Immortal Peak in three days, and then parted ways.
When he was alone, Lu Chengfeng hurried toward Bixiao Peak, but halfway there, he sensed something was off, always feeling a chill on his back, as if someone was watching him.
Only after entering Bixiao Peak did that spine-chilling feeling slightly dissipate.
From start to finish, Lu Chengfeng did not look back, pretending as if nothing was wrong, but inside he felt extremely cold, an overwhelming sense of danger engulfing him.
"Are those scoundrels really so audacious? Why are there so many traitors running rampant in the Yuncang Sword Sect?"
He felt stifled. If not for his lack of strength, he would want to draw his sword and charge directly at whoever was following him to see what kind of demons they were.
After entering Bixiao Peak, his steps slowed instead, "The situation in the Yuncang Sword Sect is not right. Zhu Yuxian’s identity is highly suspicious. Her husband originally had the chance to become our Yuncang Sect Leader, but was suddenly attacked by experts from another sect. If there are no issues with this, that would truly be odd."
"The death of that former Young Sect Leader might not be unrelated to Zhu Yuxian. If so, this woman is truly venomous."
"Not only does her background have issues, but she also covertly plots against her own husband, a past Sect Leader candidate and unparalleled genius."
"She also secretly connects with Zhao Changzhen and others, who knows what more she’s been involved in."
"Now, entering this woman’s tutelage is truly entering the tiger’s den; a slight misstep and I will be utterly crushed."
Lu Chengfeng did not feel that his genius identity could preserve his good fortune, because powerful elders within the sect could easily make him disappear without a trace.
"I must quickly enhance my strength."
His gaze flickered, "I’ve already absorbed most of Zhao Changzhen’s gifts. To rapidly increase my strength in a short period, there are now two paths."
"The first is to practice the ’Six Yang Seizing Yin’ Dual Cultivation Replenishment Secret Technique. Only in this way can I quickly enhance my Inner Power Cultivation, fill my weaknesses, and amplify the might of ’Bixiao Sword Manual’."
"Suyi was initially favored by Zhao Changzhen precisely because of her unique physique, most suitable as a Dual Cultivation tripod furnace. Having just her would be more effective than a hundred maidens."
"Though Suyi hasn’t practiced martial arts all these years, she has been cultivating the Golden Thread Jade Robe Skill, nurturing the tripod furnace. If I obtain her, my Inner Power Cultivation will surely advance greatly." The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel_fіre.net
"I have already gained Zhao Changzhen’s experience in cultivating the ’Blue Sea, Vaulted Heaven’ Inner Cultivation Heart Method. If I use the tripod furnace, I might hope to instantly uplift my Inner Cultivation Heart Method to above the Tenth Layer."
"By then, the combination of internal and external forces will amplify my Sword Qi."
Lu Chengfeng contemplated silently; he wasn’t a gentleman. Knowing that he could enhance his strength, he absolutely wouldn’t adhere to the vows made before marriage.
Thinking of the beautiful wife at home, his heart burned, itching to act, "Don’t blame me, but time waits for no one now, I can only wrong you."
Lu Chengfeng was decisive by nature. Since he had made a decision, he wouldn’t delay, "Tonight, I’ll make love with Suyi, and then treat her well afterward."
"In three days, I’ll have to head to Jade Immortal Peak. Who knows what will happen? I must enhance my strength by any means necessary."
He slightly lowered his head, his eyes filled with malice and darkness, "Zhu Yuxian has ulterior motives towards me; I may just play along."
"If I can gain the status of husband and wife with her, even just superficially, I might use my talents to receive the gifts of the former Young Sect Leader."
"He must have been an unparalleled genius far surpassing ordinary elders. Receiving his gifts, my strength will surely soar, potentially becoming a strong competitor equal to an elder in a short time."
"Only then can I have a chance to maneuver..."
"If successful... Zhu Yuxian, it will remain to be seen who is the prey!"
