Dan Hall.

The Hall Master listened with a shocked expression to the Weapon Forging Hall Master's incessant chatter.

"Ascension in broad daylight?"

Li Xian was incredibly shocked.

"Ascension in broad daylight might be a bit of an exaggeration, but based on the anomalies of the past few days, I can assert that the disciple Sect Leader took in is at least a Nascent Soul, conservatively estimated to be in the Body Integration realm. If we're being bold, the Soul Division realm isn't impossible either."

The Weapon Forging Hall Master, Fire Refining True Person, said as such.

"Is the source of this information reliable?"

Li Xian couldn't help but ask.

"What's with the reliable or unreliable? Think about it yourself. Sect Leader Senior Brother is about to ascend, so why would he take in a disciple at this critical juncture? If he wasn't a heaven-defying genius, why would he take him in? And to put it bluntly, Sect Leader Senior Brother might be acting on a whim, but could the Heaven's Secret Sect Sect Leader also be senile?"

"Most importantly, I've met that person once. To be honest, at first, I really thought he was an immortal descending to earth. That temperament, that appearance, it was simply amazing."

Fire Refining True Person said with utmost seriousness, and also with excitement.

"I knew it! Why else would Liu Qing risk his life to have his son follow that Lu Changsheng? So it turns out this Lu Changsheng is so extraordinary. Oh dear, oh dear, no, no, I must also have my son follow this Lu Changsheng. If this Lu Changsheng really ascends in the future, my son might also be touched by some immortal energy, and perhaps in his lifetime, he might also ascend!"

Li Xian said with a face full of regret, but he quickly perked up and made up his mind.

"Then what are you waiting for? All the Senior Brothers are going to Sect Leader Senior Brother now. I even heard that a Supreme Elder has personally come forward, wanting to have their descendants follow that Lu Changsheng. If you don't hurry, you won't even get the dust."

Fire Refining True Person said with a serious face.

Upon hearing this, Li Xian immediately got up and headed straight for the Great Luo Immortal Palace without another word.

At the same time.

Great Luo Immortal Palace.

Inside the main hall.

Qingyun Daoist was somewhat dumbfounded. Why had his fellow disciples suddenly gone crazy and rushed over, bluntly saying they wanted their descendants to follow his disciple and learn immortal techniques?

How could this not leave Qingyun Daoist bewildered?

Learn immortal techniques? Lu Changsheng had only reached the Qi Training realm after three years of cultivation. What was there to learn? Learn how to turn a ten-year Golden Core into Core Formation, and a three-year Core Formation into Foundation Establishment?

Were these people out of their minds?

"Senior Brother, we've been friends for eight hundred years. Do you remember when we went to the Loulan Ancient Kingdom together? I was the one who took a blow from the Blood Fiend Earth Demon for you. Look, the scar is still here. I've never asked you for anything in my life, I only ask that you let my son follow behind your disciple and learn immortal techniques. If you don't agree, I won't leave today."

The Array Hall Hall Master said loudly, and directly brought up old debts, using past favors to speak.

"Old Xu, you old codger, helping Senior Brother take a blow is nothing, what's that? Senior Brother, do you remember? Fifteen hundred years ago, when we had just joined the sect, you had worldly thoughts and went to the Ten Thousand Immortals Pavilion, and were almost discovered by the master. Who helped you take the blame? It was me, your Seventh Junior Brother. I ask for nothing else, and I know that my end is near. What I can't let go of now is my son. Let my son learn some Daoist techniques by Changsheng's side. If you don't even agree to this, before I die, I'll tell the world what you did back then."

The Moral Hall Hall Master spoke, his face full of righteousness, and his attitude resolute.

"Seventh Junior Brother, don't spout nonsense. How could we cultivators be swayed by worldly thoughts? Can't we discuss things properly?"

Qingyun Daoist wanted to vomit blood. These fellow disciples of his, they usually seemed so amiable, but at critical moments, they would turn their faces in an instant, leaving absolutely no room for sentimentality.

"Sect Leader Junior Brother, enough with the nonsense. Haven't you always liked my Ancient Jade Chessboard? I'll give it to you, including the chess pieces, on one condition: my son gets to follow beside Lu Changsheng, even if it's just to pour tea and serve water."

"Hiss, you old codger, you'd even say 'pour tea and serve water'? Aren't you considering your son's feelings at all?"

"Junior Brother Xu, since you're being so shameless, don't blame your Senior Brother for being heartless. Sect Leader Senior Brother, back then, Master gave me a Great Luo Ancient Mirror. Didn't you like it a lot? I'll give it to you, just arrange for my son to follow beside Lu Changsheng. I'm willing for him to sweep the floors and do odd jobs."

Everyone chattered, each trying to get a word in, and if one sentence wasn't right, they'd start cursing at each other, without a shred of immortal sect decorum. If the Great Luo disciples saw this, they'd probably be dumbfounded.

"Wait! Wait a minute! Silence! Silence!"

Qingyun Daoist spoke, waving his hand. In an instant, terrifying magical power suppressed the area, silencing everyone.

"First, tell me, what exactly is going on?"

Qingyun Daoist really couldn't understand what was happening. Why were these fellow disciples suddenly acting like they'd gone mad, sending all their precious sons over?

"Sect Leader Senior Brother, don't hide it from us. Your disciple is a heaven-defying genius, a peerless prodigy. He's only been a disciple for three years, yet his cultivation is unfathomable. It's said that he's already reached the Soul Division Realm, surpassing his predecessors. Our intention is simple: we want our descendants to follow beside Lu Changsheng and properly learn cultivation. We seek nothing else."

"Yes, yes, yes, we seek nothing else, as long as Lu Changsheng is willing to take my son."

"Senior Brother, you're actually quite unkind. Back then, when Master passed the position to you, we weren't too angry. But you took in a peerless genius and hid it from others, which we understand. But why hide it from us? He's already at the Soul Division Realm, and you're still hiding it? Are you going to wait until he ascends before telling us the truth?"

"That's right."

"Hmph, Junior Brother Qingyun, when Master passed the Great Luo Sect Leader position to you, I thought you were honest and incomparably virtuous. I never expected that you'd hide it from them, and even hide it from me, your Senior Brother? In short, if you don't let my son follow Lu Changsheng, we'll settle both the old and new scores together."

"That's right, together."

Inside the main hall, dozens of high-level figures clamored.

Qingyun Daoist really didn't know what to say.

"Who told you that Lu Changsheng has already reached Soul Division?"

Qingyun Daoist couldn't help but ask.

"Do we need to be told? I could tell at a glance!"

"Oh, good, very good, Sect Leader Senior Brother, I treat you as a Senior Brother, but you actually treat me like an idiot?"

"Sect Leader Junior Brother, are you still acting?"

"Stop pretending. Now, the entire Great Luo Holy Land knows that Lu Changsheng has already reached Soul Division!"

"Could it be that he really Tribulation Transcended?"

"Huh, looking at Senior Brother's expression, it's actually possible."

The more they talked, the more outrageous it became.

And Qingyun Daoist was even more confused.

Soul Division?

Tribulation Transcendence?

Isn't he at Qi Training?

Wait!

At this moment, Qingyun Daoist thought of something.

That was, he couldn't see through Lu Changsheng's cultivation level.

Lu Changsheng's realm was what Lu Changsheng himself had said.

What if Lu Changsheng was lying to him?

After careful study and various considerations.

In an instant, Qingyun Daoist couldn't help but slap his thigh, suddenly realizing.

"Good heavens, you even deceive your master! Utterly rebellious! Utterly rebellious!"

"Fellow brothers, please wait a moment, I will go and find my disciple now."

After saying this, Qingyun Daoist left directly.

At the same time.

Lu Changsheng, who still didn't know what was happening.

Wrote out another brand new Pill Recipe.

His face revealed an unspeakable joy.
