Conspiracy, Let's Thoroughly Embarrass His Master Zhao Tianchen!

On the summit of Myriad Star Peak.

In the backyard of the Myriad Star Peak Master's residence, behind the Myriad Star Peak main hall.

A middle-aged man with a refined demeanor, dressed in a star-patterned blue robe, was conversing with Wang An, the phoenix-eyed youth Fang Hong had seen at the disciple-acceptance ceremony.

During their conversation, Wang An's demeanor was exceptionally respectful.

Even though they were communicating face-to-face, his body was still slightly bowed.

Wang An was Myriad Star Peak's foremost True Disciple.

His status on Myriad Star Peak could truly be described as second only to the Peak Master, above all others.

And this refined middle-aged man in the blue robe, whom he treated with such respect, His identity was naturally self-evident.

This refined middle-aged man in the blue robe was the current Peak Master of Myriad Star Peak, Gao Xin'ang!

He was also Wang An's master!

"Sect Grand Competition?"

"And it's in half a month?"

"Why would the Sect Master suddenly decide to hold the Sect Grand Competition?"

Wang An asked Gao Xin'ang with some surprise.

Upon hearing this, Gao Xin'ang let out a cold, disdainful laugh.

"What else could it be? Naturally, it's because of Zhao Tianchen's newly accepted disciple."

Wang An frowned, "Fang Hong?"

"What does this have to do with him?"

Gao Xin'ang glanced at him. "Someone saw Zhao Tianchen go to see the Sect Master last night, and then today the Sect Master announced the Sect Grand Competition would be held in half a month."

"Do you believe this has nothing to do with that old geezer?"

"And if Zhao Tianchen, that old geezer, would go out of his way to find the Sect Master, who else could it be besides that new disciple he has such high hopes for?"

Gao Xin'ang said with a slight chill in his voice.

"Then what are Master's plans?"

Wang An asked Gao Xin'ang cautiously.

"Hmph, although I don't know what that old fellow's specific plans are."

"But that old fellow's disciple has only just joined, and his strength is still very weak. Even if he participates in the competition, he won't be able to achieve a high ranking."

"And the top ten finishers in this Sect Grand Competition will be eligible for the Star Pool baptism."

"If things are manipulated properly behind the scenes, achieving a top ten ranking isn't entirely impossible. I surmise his goal is nothing more than this."

Gao Xin'ang said coldly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes as he spoke.

Even though he had been the Peak Master of Myriad Star Peak for so many years.

In the hearts of many Elders, and even the high-ranking members of the other two peaks, he was still just the guy who had taken advantage of Zhao Tianchen.

They all felt that if Zhao Tianchen hadn't had that incident back then, suffering severe mental damage and directly withdrawing from the competition for Peak Master, This Peak Master position would definitely not have fallen to him.

Even after so many years, when those people interacted with him, they would often reveal a hint of disdain.

Even though those people, due to his current status, position, and strength, concealed that disdain very well.

He could still feel it with absolute clarity.

For so many years, those veiled looks of disdain had been like steel thorns, constantly pricking at his heart.

It was like a bone stuck in his throat, making him wish he could remove it immediately!

"Hmph, Zhao Tianchen, weren't you very arrogant back then? Don't everyone think I'm inferior to you, that I picked up this position from you?"

"Then this time, I will make your highly anticipated disciple thoroughly disgrace you, Zhao Tianchen!"

Gao Xin'ang thought resentfully, letting out a cold snort.

With this thought, Gao Xin'ang's icy gaze fell directly on Wang An.

"The Sect Grand Competition is in half a month. I will make arrangements behind the scenes then."

"First, I'll have Fang Hong face opponents who are not very strong."

"In the end, I will arrange for you to face Fang Hong. At that time, you will teach him a good lesson."

"Make him thoroughly embarrass his master, Zhao Tianchen, in front of everyone!"

"At that time, all their arrangements behind the scenes will become your stepping stone."

Gao Xin'ang commanded coldly.

"Yes, disciple will definitely make that brat lose face in front of everyone!"

Hearing Gao Xin'ang's cold voice and gaze, Wang An's body trembled, and then he immediately replied loudly.

"Mhm," Gao Xin'ang gave a soft hum, his emotions calming down slightly.

"I've arranged the path for you now, but if you don't meet my requirements by then, if you don't perform this play for me properly."

Gao Xin'ang's calm gaze fell on Wang An, "Then you should know what kind of consequences you'll face."

Hearing this, Wang An's heart became even more fearful.

"Disciple will definitely do his best!"

"Hmph, it's not 'do your best,' you must succeed, otherwise I'll skin you alive!"

At these words, Wang An was so scared that he immediately knelt on the ground.

"Yes, disciple obeys!"

Seeing Wang An's terrified appearance, Gao Xin'ang felt as if he saw his past self in him, and a wave of disgust instantly washed over him.

"Alright, stop acting so useless."

"Starting today, prepare with all your might for the Sect Grand Competition in half a month!"

"All those messy little actions you usually pull, listen up: cultivate properly!"

"You joined the sect earlier than that guy from Bright Moon Peak, yet he's already broken through to the Heaven Realm, while you're still stuck at Earth Realm eighth level, struggling to break through!"

"Truly a piece of trash!"

Gao Xin'ang berated him with a hint of disgust.

"Disciple is ashamed, I've made Master lose face." Wang An apologized with some fear.

His kneeling body lowered even further, his head bowed even deeper.

Seeing Wang An's quail-like demeanor, Gao Xin'ang felt an inexplicable surge of anger, becoming even more irritated.

"Enough, get out!"

The reason he had taken Wang An as a disciple in the first place was because he saw a slight shadow of his past self in him.

But now, the reason he felt such genuine disgust for this disciple.

It was also because the other party possessed his shadow, and seemed to be becoming more and more like his past self.

At the thought of this, Gao Xin'ang felt an inexplicable rage, making him extremely agitated.

"Zhao Tianchen, you always suppressed me back then, making everyone look down on me."

"This time, I'll see how you, this new disciple who just joined, can still suppress my disciple!"

Gao Xin'ang looked towards the direction of the back mountain with a vexed mood, his eyes filled with resentment.

However, he did not know that.

Wang An, who had exited the courtyard, looked back in the direction Gao Xin'ang was standing, his eyes also filled with endless resentment and anger.

That gaze was just like his own gaze when he hid in the shadows and looked at Zhao Tianchen back then.

Truly, what kind of master, what kind of disciple.

It was a legacy passed down!

However, Fang Hong and Zhao Tianchen were naturally unaware of their schemes.

But even if they knew, the two of them probably wouldn't have cared.

Gao Xin'ang harbored such hatred for Zhao Tianchen because of past events.

But in reality, he didn't know that Zhao Tianchen had never even taken him seriously back then.

It was likely that Zhao Tianchen, over all these years, might not even know that Gao Xin'ang hated him so much.

But even if he did know, he would probably just laugh it off.

Because from beginning to end, he had never taken Gao Xin'ang seriously.

However, Fang Hong was different from his master, who was actually arrogant to the bone.

When he found out about Gao Xin'ang's scheme.

He would only find an opportunity to kill them both, the master and disciple, to eliminate future troubles!
