Yue Lingzhu Chooses His Path!

In the Laughing Proud World, atop Mount Hua.

A boy of about five was sitting on Sunrise Peak of Mount Hua.

He watched the sun gradually rise in the distance, his gaze fixed on the scene of yin and yang shifting.

A strange gray light flashed in his eyes.

Then, the child spoke.

After he was born, aside from crying three times at first to announce his arrival into the world,

he had never cried again.

Even as a toddler, when he was hungry or needed to urinate, he would only babble and call out.

What delighted Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze most was that Yue Lingzhu had been exceptionally gifted since birth.

He could stand after just one month.

After three months, he could crawl everywhere without stopping.

After five months, he could walk freely, and his strength was terrifyingly great.

He also possessed a photographic memory and was born with a body suited for external cultivation.

His strength was so immense that even Yue Buqun, a martial artist, was utterly astonished.

However, Yue Lingzhu had a secret that no one else knew.

After he became aware of the world, a phantom had appeared before him.

It became his teacher, and according to what it told him,
