My Master Knows It All

Cao Zhen clearly remembers, before crossing over, when he was still young, accompanying his parents to see those half-familiar strangers, his parents would often pull him aside and tell him, this is Uncle Liu, that is Aunt Zhang, and make him greet them.

And now, his own wife, is pulling their child aside and telling the child, this is their father.

This scene is so similar to the one he experienced in his childhood.

He really doesn’t count as a good father.

Cao Zhen sighed, looking at his child, for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

After all, all these years he had only watched his child through China Cloud, suddenly seeing his child in person, he also felt a sense of estrangement.

For a moment, beneath the mountain gate of Four Treasures Peak, it fell into a peculiar silence.

Just as Cao Zhen was contemplating how to alleviate this awkwardness, two figures flew over from afar.

All around, everyone seeing the newcomers began greeting them one after another.

”Elder Copper Plate.”

”Greetings to Elder Copper Plate.”

At Hundred Peaks Sect, Elder Copper Plate is a very special figure; like Four Treasures Peak, other disciples ordinarily would not enter Four Treasures Peak.

However, the formation of Four Treasures Peak is open to Elder Copper Plate, allowing him to enter at any time if he wishes.

Elder Copper Plate looked at Ling Xi and the others, smiling as he said, ”You’ve all returned, good, good, it’s good that you’ve all returned.”

After saying this, his gaze finally landed on Cao Zhen, looking at him like an old father seeing the top scholar returning from school or a child who is a high official in the imperial court, full of pride and gratification.

”Sect Hierarch, you’ve returned.”

”Yes, I have returned.” Cao Zhen said, as his gaze fell upon the child Elder Copper Plate was holding, a child who seemed to be around ten years old, likely just graduated from the Academy.

He asked curiously, ”Elder, who is this child?”

”His name is Xingchen Zi.” Elder Copper Plate affectionately patted the child’s head, showing a trace of sorrow on his face as he said, ”This child is a descendant of an old friend of mine. A few days ago, my old friend exhausted his lifespan and passed away.

Before he passed, he entrusted the child to me, and this time, I came to you because of this child.

He’s called Xingchen Zi because he possesses the Stardust Immortal Body, an Ancient Immortal Body.”

Ancient Immortal Body?

Cao Zhen paused for a moment, he hadn’t heard of the Ancient Immortal Body for a long time.

The people around quickly reacted, realizing that without a master, the Ancient Immortal Body is nearly impossible to break through.

Elder Copper Plate brought this child to seek a mentor, his intention was clear.

”Sect Hierarch, this child is very clever, only by bringing him to you can he avoid being delayed. That’s why I brought him here, hoping to ask you if you would accept this child as a disciple.” Elder Copper Plate knew Cao Zhen didn’t like accepting disciples, but this was a child entrusted to him by an old friend, so he couldn’t ignore it. Moreover, only at Cao Zhen’s place could the Ancient Immortal Body truly grow.

Furthermore, he is a disciple of Hundred Peaks Sect.

Look at Ling Xi, Xiang Ziyu and the others.

Four Treasures Peak has five Ancient Immortal Bodies, each incredibly powerful, and when this child grows up, it will also add a strong warrior to Hundred Peaks Sect.

”Since Elder Copper Plate has requested, I certainly won’t refuse.” Cao Zhen nodded slightly, he really couldn’t disregard Elder Copper Plate’s face.

When Elder Copper Plate heard this, joy appeared on his face, as he urged Xingchen Zi, ”Hurry and pay your respects to your master.”

Upon hearing this, Xingchen Zi didn’t immediately look at Cao Zhen, but first looked at Elder Copper Plate, deeply bowed and said, ”Thank you, Elder.”

Only then, under Elder Copper Plate’s urging, did he turn to face Cao Zhen, dropping to his knees: ”Disciple Xingchen Zi, pays respects to Master.”

”Alright, get up.”

Cao Zhen nodded slightly, impressed that the child, instead of immediately acknowledging him, first thanked Elder Copper Plate; this was indeed commendable.

Although Xingchen Zi is just a child, children in this world mature earlier in certain aspects.

At this age, a child knows the importance of a Sect Hierarch, a True Immortal realm powerhouse.

Not to mention ordinary children, even adult cultivators, upon learning they could become his disciple, would immediately bow to acknowledge the master, but Xingchen Zi, the first thing he thought of, was Elder Copper Plate.

Stardust Immortal Body.

Cao Zhen had some understanding of this Ancient Immortal Body, which had an exceptional affinity for the power of stars.

Among the people he accepted, although none specialized in cultivating the power of stars, many of them had spells similar to it.

Moreover, many cultivation techniques, when operated, actually absorb the power of stars.

Accepting Xingchen Zi didn’t mean he couldn’t teach this disciple.

Though he claimed he didn’t take disciples, unknowingly, he had already accepted fourteen disciples.

Adding in his own child, as well as the children of Bei Yan and Zhu Peng, Four Treasures Peak had become much livelier than before.

However, this situation did not last long, as Hundred Peaks Sect received a communication.

It was a message from Sword Lord of Three Talents.

At the same time, various Great Teachings in the Eastern Province received the communication from Sword Lord of Three Talents.

”Due to the recent activities of the Sky Clan, Sword Lord of Three Talents and others, we five Golden Immortal realm powerhouses of the Eastern Province, hope everyone can, as much as possible, bring resources from your Great Teaching to the border of Eastern Province, to find a top Array Master and set up a formation.”
