Sect Recruitment: I Can See Attribute Entries

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 Actually, Your Master Is the One Who Treats You Best in the World.

Chapter 100 Actually, Your Master Is the One Who Treats You Best in the World.

Capital of the Xuanwu Kingdom.

Fate Pavilion, residence of the Tianyan Sect.

Zheng Xiaofeng stared grimly at the report handed to him. His eyes swept across the contents, and he immediately felt a headache coming on.

Li Yingling was a mistreated illegitimate daughter from Li Manor?

She had originally been intended to marry the half-witted second son of the Wang family, only to be snatched away by Chu Xingchen?

What was all this nonsense? Was showing her true identity and cultivation so difficult?

And Chu Xingchen, upon arriving this time, had done nothing except go to Li Manor to stir up trouble.

But the situation seemed off. There had been no major disturbance, no dramatic chaos, and not even a single person had been killed.

Was that really it?

Zheng Xiaofeng frowned as he considered this. It did not match Chu Xingchen’s style at all.

When Xie Lingyu returned to Central State, she had specifically instructed him to ensure that nothing went wrong during Chu Xingchen’s trip to the capital.

Especially to prevent him from causing trouble.

Zheng Xiaofeng quietly reviewed his impression of Chu Xingchen.

He had to admit, the psychological scar left by Chu Xingchen was severe.

That single phrase—”Little Zheng”—still haunted his dreams from time to time.

This man was no harmless character, and his heart was narrow. He would definitely do something behind the scenes to avenge his disciple.

Judging from the demonic cultivator incident, this matter would never be simple, and more would surely follow.

If Chu Xingchen was left unchecked, this situation could easily explode into something huge.

He let out a long sigh and tucked the document into his sleeve.

What Xie Lingyu had instructed, he had to accomplish no matter what. He had to suppress every possible risk.

Among the Tianyan Sect’s external assignment this time, aside from the Nascent Soul cultivators, most of the Core Formation disciples were willing to help under Xie Lingyu’s name.

He could not command them outright, but asking for their cooperation was no issue.

Better to prepare in advance.

This matter—Zheng Xiaofeng would take care of it.

Still, there was no need to trouble those Core Formation disciples just yet.

Tianyan Sect also had two Core Formation guests stationed here by the Xuanwu Kingdom.

Zheng Xiaofeng walked toward the most secluded room. If the two Core Formation cultivators had no duties, they would remain inside, neither asking nor watching too much.

He pushed open the door.

The two meditating Core Formation cultivators opened their eyes sharply, their gazes landing on this Tianyan Sect janitor.

Zheng Xiaofeng cupped his hands slightly. ”There are several matters I must trouble the two of you to handle.”

——————

Fate Pavilion was essentially a collective term for a designated area.

To prevent conflicts between certain sects from Central State, the Xuanwu Kingdom had spaced each sect’s residence quite far apart.

Li Yingling leisurely pushed open the main gate while holding her little junior sister’s hand.

Her junior brother had suggested eating together, but then said the time was not right yet and that he would choose a better moment later.

Ever since he reached Core Formation, he seemed even stranger than before.

But Li Yingling did not dwell on it. Even a strange junior brother was still her junior brother.

The Xuanwu Kingdom’s receiving official, Wen Qing, was still supervising the work.

Chen Baiqing glanced at her senior sister and noticed her mood had indeed improved—they were no longer weighed down as heavily as before.

Qiu Ling followed behind Chu Xingchen, a wry smile on her face.

”Senior, are you certain you understand the event procedures...?”

If she had known this earlier, she would rather have taken the job of watching over the grave mounds.

Chu Xingchen replied listlessly,

”It’s a banquet. You go in, eat, and leave. What, does my second disciple need to go on stage and dance?”

Li Xingtian paused. If anyone had to dance, shouldn’t it be Senior Sister?

”That won’t be necessary...” Qiu Ling forced a dry smile. ”It’s just that there will be many activities. Knowing the flow will help you move more comfortably.”

Chu Xingchen said, ”Do not worry. I will certainly be very at ease.”

”Senior, your kind of ’at ease’... is probably not the same as mine.”

Qiu Ling followed behind Chu Xingchen as they stepped inside, just about to continue speaking.

Chu Xingchen raised his hand to stop her. ”How about this—you write the important points on paper. I will read them when I have time, and if I forget something at the banquet, I will take it out and look. What do you think?”

The suggestion was reasonable.

Qiu Ling nodded with relief. After bowing, she headed toward the side room where she was staying, preparing to handwrite the most important notes.

Most of these reminders were simply to ensure that the sects from Central State did not behave too rudely during the banquet, especially with regard to showing respect to other sects.

Otherwise, the hosts would have a hard time smoothing things over. These rules were essentially unwritten customs.

However, after watching Chu Xingchen’s behavior on the first day, Qiu Ling felt that adding one more layer of insurance was the safer choice.

If something truly happened, she would at least have an excuse ready when responsibility was questioned.

With Qiu Ling gone, the courtyard grew noticeably quieter.

Li Yingling seemed to be in a much better mood, though Chu Xingchen still did not know what she was truly thinking.

But the more he tried to persuade her, the more he risked interfering with her own thoughts.

Right now, all he needed to do was stand behind her whenever she needed support.

Thinking this, Chu Xingchen turned his gaze toward Li Xingtian.

”Have you decided?”

Li Xingtian looked at his master in surprise, but given it was his master, it made sense he could see through his thoughts. He gave a small nod.

”The timing—have you settled it?” Chu Xingchen asked again.

Li Xingtian replied, ”After the banquet.”

Chu Xingchen nodded lightly and said nothing more.

After all, he had agreed from the beginning.

A disciple’s path in life was not meant to be forever bound to their master.

Each had their own world to walk into.

Li Xingtian was so, Li Yingling was so, and even the youngest, Chen Baiqing, would one day walk her own road.

Li Xingtian looked at his master. Now that he had reached the Mysterious Dan Realm, he had officially stepped onto the immortal path. He could not remain under his master’s wing forever.

He had long prepared for this. When he advanced to the Mysterious Dan Realm, he had already planned to say farewell.

He truly had things he needed to accomplish.

But when he opened his eyes, his senior sister’s situation came first. Emotionally and logically, he had to help her resolve it.

Even so, knowing he would leave, Li Xingtian still felt some reluctance.

But he was not leaving forever.

In his previous life he had been a wandering cultivator, but not in this one. In this life, he had met his master.

He had a place where he belonged now, even if it was far from Central State.

And when he grew tired, he would travel thousands of miles to return.

He would also help build the grand hall in his master’s heart.

Chu Xingchen asked, ”Are you planning to tell them only at the end?”

Li Xingtian nodded softly. His senior sister’s heart was not calm right now. Even if she might not mind his departure, he still did not want to affect her further.

”You know your master is poor and has nothing good to give you.” Chu Xingchen tossed him a spatial ring. ”Do not look down on it.”

Li Xingtian reached out and caught it. His spiritual sense entered the ring.

Inside, a small pile of spirit stones sat quietly.

”Master, you still need to take care of Senior Sister and the others...”

”They are my disciples, but so are you.” Chu Xingchen hooked an arm around his shoulder. ”Truthfully, your master has always favored you more.”

Li Xingtian was stunned.

Chu Xingchen blinked and sent a quiet voice transmission.

”Actually, your master treats you the very best in the whole world.”
