Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 315: Chapter 63: Lin Xueying: Have I Become the Young Master of Cloud Light Sect?

On the other side, after leaving the Cloud Light Sect,

Master Yun Yi drove his flying treasure with all his might, not daring to delay for even a moment. In just ten days, he arrived at the Golden Ape Valley.

”Senior Brother, you finally returned. You have no idea how I’ve been these past days!”

Seeing the figure of Master Yun Yi, Master Jin Hong couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

During this period, only he and Master Profound Cyan, the two True Pill cultivators, were on the front line of the Golden Ape Valley.

He was extremely anxious, constantly worried about a major attack from the opposite Celestial Feather Sect.

After all, with the strength of the Celestial Feather Sect, without Master Yun Yi here, they absolutely couldn’t hold it off. Now that he’s back, Master Jin Hong felt he had a backbone.

Seeing his junior brother, Master Yun Yi forced a smile.

Noticing Master Yun Yi’s low spirits, Master Jin Hong was extremely puzzled,

”Senior Brother seems in bad mood, could it have been an unsuccessful journey?”

Upon hearing this, Master Yun Yi let out a long sigh.

Then he recounted his experiences at Wangchuan Lake once again.

As the story unfolded, Master Jin Hong’s mouth opened wider and wider, finally turning into a face full of disbelief.

”Se...Se...Senior Brother, you said Zhou Xun broke through to Core Formation?”

”Most likely, he’s at Half-Step Golden Core!!!”

Master Jin Hong confirmed repeatedly.

Master Jin Hong was extremely familiar with this Zhou Xun.

The first time he heard of this person was from the Song Family. At that time, he was merely at the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Their first meeting was during the support of White Cloud Immortal City, where he had many interactions with this Zhou Xun, allowing him to understand this person’s extraordinary nature, which ignited his appreciation of talent.

Later, he attempted to recruit him vigorously, and Zhou Xun almost became his direct disciple.

However, due to Master Yun Yi’s obstruction, he and Zhou Xun drifted apart, eventually giving up.

Unexpectedly, now hearing about him again, Zhou Xun had already broken through to Core Formation.

If he remembered correctly, Zhou Xun shouldn’t be over seventy years old now.

A Core Formation cultivator at seventy years old.

Guaranteed to reach Peak Core Formation in the future!

While he was at Core Formation when Zhou Xun was at Qi Cultivation, now that Zhou Xun succeeded in Core Formation, he could even compete with Master Yun Yi, and yet he was still at the Early-Stage Core Formation.

Thinking of this, Master Jin Hong couldn’t help but feel a bitterness.

Upon hearing Master Jin Hong’s inquiry, Master Yun Yi nodded with a long sigh, full of regret.

”It’s all this senior brother’s fault, regret not listening to junior brother’s word!”

Back then, in order to change this junior brother’s mind, he used many means.

Now it seems, it truly backfired!

”Senior Brother, I...”

Master Jin Hong’s face changed several times between red and white, finally turning into a sigh:

”Fortunately, Senior Brother handled it properly, otherwise, our Cloud Light Sect would be in danger!”

”Even so, the matter I promised junior brother, I fear... I fear...” Master Yun Yi looked into Master Jin Hong’s eyes, but the rest of the words remained unspoken.

It was to support Master Jin Hong to lead the Cloud Light Sect.

Now with Zhou Xun’s matter, the future authority of the Cloud Light Sect will likely fall to Lin Xueying’s hands, as for Master Jin Hong, there’s no way anymore.

Upon hearing the way his senior brother handled things, Master Jin Hong realized this point.

He was filled with dejection and helplessness:

”Senior Brother, Zhou Xun’s influence is already dominant, even if this junior brother disagrees, what could be done?”

If he disagreed, he feared he’d lose not only the authority of Cloud Light Sect, but also his life.

However, thinking about his hundred-year-long plan ending so abruptly.

He originally thought his opponent was Master Fengyue.

Who knew it would be Lin Xueying!

”It’s me who let you down, Junior Brother!” Master Yun Yi said sincerely.

”Well, Senior Brother should hurry and admit Xueying into the sect, then send her back to the rear of the sect!” Master Jin Hong quickly understood.

Since there’s no chance anymore, he should serve well as an assistant.

Then, the two hurriedly flew towards Master Fengyue’s cave mansion, where Lin Xueying always stayed.

...

Facing the opened restriction of Master Fengyue’s cave mansion, the two looked at each other.

”Junior Brother, is Xueying really inside?” Master Yun Yi asked somewhat hesitantly.

After all, if Lin Xueying were truly inside, with the restriction completely opened like this, she wouldn’t be able to come out with her cultivation level.

”She should be!” Master Jin Hong also hesitated a bit.

”Never mind, I’ll open it and we’ll know!” said Master Yun Yi, summoning his lifebound magical treasure, the ”Heaven and Earth Hammer.”

Then, like a celestial meteor descending, with a majestic presence, he fiercely smashed the restriction of the cave mansion.

”Boom——”

With a loud bang, the entire cave mansion shook.

The outer restriction light shield wavered instantly.

At this moment, Lin Xueying was sitting cross-legged cultivating, suddenly the ground shook violently, waking her up.

She quickly realized someone was forcibly breaking the formation.

Hurriedly standing up, she summoned the defense magical artifact, wrapping herself inside, then stuck an escape talisman on her chest, ready to trigger it to escape at any moment.

After all, this was Master Fengyue’s cave mansion, unless the Golden Ape Valley fell, she couldn’t think of anyone who would forcibly break in.

The weaker cultivators wouldn’t dare, stronger ones wouldn’t need to.

Just then,

”Crash——”

The second loud noise came, the restriction shattered instantly.

Lin Xueying immediately dashed out, turning the hall, and upon seeing the newcomers, froze.

”Eh?”

”Second Elder, Grand Elder, why is it you two, where is my master?”

”Xueying, you’re really inside, that’s great!” Seeing Lin Xueying’s figure, Master Yun Yi couldn’t help but rejoice.

Master Jin Hong also revealed a smile.

”This is a long story, sit down to talk!” Master Yun Yi said cheerfully.

Seeing the extremely enthusiastic Grand Elder, Lin Xueying was puzzled.

Although she was Master Fengyue’s only direct disciple, holding a revered position in Cloud Light Sect, she was nothing in the eyes of this Grand Elder.

Even more strange was the look in Second Elder Jin Hong’s eyes, which seemed a bit complex and envious.

What would Master Jin Hong be jealous of her for.

”Xueying, you probably don’t know, your master, Master Fengyue, has already fallen!”

Master Yun Yi’s words shocked Lin Xueying greatly.

”What, my master has fallen, impossible!”

Lin Xueying was completely astounded, her master was a True Pill cultivator, who in Xui Country could kill her.

Could it be the Celestial Feather Sect?

”Junior Sister Fengyue indeed has fallen!”

At this time, Master Jin Hong confirmed.

With this, Lin Xueying finally believed her master’s demise, her eyes reddening instantly,

”Who?”

Then she lifted her head to look at Master Yun Yi, her voice icy.

Master Yun Yi and Master Jin Hong exchanged a glance, both unable to speak easily.

The future of their Cloud Light Sect depended on maintaining the relationship between her and Zhou Xun.

If they said it outright and damaged her relationship with Zhou Xun, it would be disastrous.

Seeing the hesitant expressions of Master Yun Yi, Lin Xueying inquired again:

”May the two elders please inform Xueying!”

Hearing this, Master Yun Yi knew he had no choice but to answer, hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke up.
