"Oh, it's nothing much, I just wanted to talk to you... Wait, is the Sect Leader next to you?"

Hua Yunfei looked at Yun Tian Zhenren. Seeing him shake his head, he then said, "He's not here, what is it, just say it."

The sound transmission stone emitted a halo and a voice came out: "Your dad is looking for you. He just wants to tell you to quickly find a disciple and hand over the position of Chief Disciple. After you hand it over, come find your dad quickly. Your dad has discovered a super fun place."

"What about the sect? Are you just leaving like this?"

"The sect? Hmph! Yun Tian, that idiot, is just like his master and his master's master. They've been exploiting our Hua family generation after generation. Do you know how many Hua family ancestors are lying in the Backer Sect's ancestral mausoleum?"

"Other main peaks' Chief Disciples only have a few dozen generations of inheritance, but our Daoyuan Peak has had a hundred generations!"

"Why! Because our Hua family has good genes, everyone is a genius, and everyone quickly surpasses the sect's superficial strength, smoothly entering the ancestral mausoleum to 'sit down' on the surface, hiding in the ancestral mausoleum to become the sect's foundation!"

"If your dad hadn't been fast enough, he'd be lying there too!"

Hua Yunfei glanced awkwardly at Yun Tian Zhenren, whose face had already turned as black as the bottom of a pot. How could he respond to this?

It was all said so plainly!

"Uh... Dad... I understand. Is there anything else?"

Hua Yunfei said, feeling as if the sound transmission stone in his hand was a hot potato, and he really wanted to end the conversation quickly.

He could already feel Yun Tian Zhenren's urge to tear his father apart alive!

"There's more, too. Quickly find a wife and give me a big, healthy grandson. Your mother is waiting to hold her grandson."

"You know your mother's temper. If she doesn't get her way, it'll be light for both of us to get beaten!"

Hua Yunfei rolled his eyes. He wasn't interested in a Dao companion, so he said, "Is there anything else?"

"Hey? You brat, I finally found time to chat with you, why are you in such a hurry to hang up?"

Yun Tian Zhenren finally couldn't hold back: "Hua Cangqiong! You son of a—"

Beep...

The sound transmission on the other end immediately stopped, and the sound transmission stone was directly locked. Hua Yunfei couldn't transmit back.

"Uh, Sect Leader, my dad is just like that... You know... he's just... all talk, but actually..."

Hua Yunfei didn't know how to explain.

Yun Tian Zhenren patted his chest, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart.

That old fellow actually called him an idiot...

He took a big gulp of Dao Tea, and only then did he feel a little better.

Hearing Hua Yunfei's words, Yun Tian Zhenren said:

"You don't need to explain for him. If he dares to come back, I won't skin him. Just don't stop me then."

Hua Yunfei whispered, "I'm just afraid you won't be able to beat him!"

"What did you say?"

Yun Tian Zhenren stared at Hua Yunfei.

Hua Yunfei quickly shook his head, "Nothing. But Sect Leader, I'm really not interested in taking in a disciple."

[Ding, the system has issued a disciple-taking mission...]

"Stop, I'm not accepting it, rejected!"

In his heart, Hua Yunfei directly rejected the system's mission.

He didn't want to run around the world for a mission.

Like a slave.

[System received, mission rejected, mission system canceled!]

Hua Yunfei nodded with satisfaction.

Although Yun Tian Zhenren was angry, he still said earnestly, "Disciples are the foundation of a sect. As the youngest Celestial Realm cultivator in the sect, don't you, Hua Yunfei, consider the sect? Cultivating a genius disciple?"

"Moreover, when disciples bring glory, you also gain face!"

Hua Yunfei shook his head, "Not very interested."

Having transmigrated for a hundred years, he had rarely even left Daoyuan Peak.

He didn't want to touch troublesome things like taking disciples.

He was rather lazy and preferred to stay on Daoyuan Peak to sign in.

When he signed in until he became a Great Emperor, it wouldn't hurt to go out for a stroll.

Yun Tian Zhenren was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "This is probably also your mother's wish."

Upon hearing this, Hua Yunfei raised his head and said, "If it's just my mother's wish to take in a disciple, then I should listen."

His mother had doted on him since childhood and loved him very much, so he was willing to listen to his mother.

Yun Tian Zhenren stroked his beard with satisfaction, "Seven days later, the sect will hold its triennial disciple recruitment ceremony! Remember to attend!"

The Backer Sect is one of the top major powers in the Eastern Region of the Big Dipper Star.

In the entire Wildlands Province, only the Dao Yi Immortal Sect and the Nether Ghost Palace could stand on equal footing with the Backer Sect.

And throughout the Eastern Region, the Backer Sect's influence was considerable.

It was one of the nine great immortal sects of the Eastern Region, ranking sixth!

The disciple recruitment ceremony, held once every three years, was a grand event for the Backer Sect.

It was also a grand event for the entire Wildlands Province!

Even ordinary people had heard of the Backer Sect's name, their elders often mentioning it since childhood.

Therefore, even though the Wildlands Province spanned a vast area of ten billion li, countless people set out early for the disciple recruitment ceremony.

Some even departed three years in advance, traveling for three years, barely managing to cross several spatial teleportation domains to reach the Backer Sect's mountain gate!

Hua Yunfei had been the first seat for thirty years, participating in no less than ten disciple recruitment ceremonies.

Each time, he had blended in with the crowd, never taking on any disciples.

He had even ignored those who came specifically for his reputation as a genius.

This time, however, Hua Yunfei was determined to choose a suitable successor for Daoyuan Peak during the disciple recruitment ceremony.

The first seats of Daoyuan Peak had always been top-tier geniuses for generations.

He couldn't tarnish the sect's reputation in his generation!

However…

Seven days later, the disciple recruitment ceremony proceeded as scheduled. Millions of people flocked to the Backer Sect for the month-long event!

But by the end of the ceremony.

Hua Yunfei had not found a suitable successor.

Perhaps he was too outstanding, and ordinary geniuses simply couldn't catch his eye.

The "ordinary" genius Hua Yunfei spoke of had caused Tianji Zhenren and Gou Yuan Zhenren to fight over who would take him as a disciple on the day of the ceremony!

In the end, Gou Yuan Zhenren won by a narrow margin, luckily becoming the master of that "ordinary" genius and taking him to Gouyuan Peak.

Daoyuan Peak.

Hua Yunfei took a sip of Enlightenment Tea, its sweet, profound aroma filling his heart.

His sea of consciousness cleared, and he entered a state of self-forgetfulness.

His dantian surged, and terrifying power flowed through him. Tens of thousands of runes appeared around him, enveloping him. Anomalies emerged above Daoyuan Peak, with the Great Dao harmonizing and immortal radiance flowing.

"I've made further progress, but the suppression from heaven and earth is too severe now. Even my progress is so difficult."

The current era seemed to have entered an age of Dharma decline. Great Emperors did not appear, and Saints remained hidden, everything returning to mediocrity.

Some Saint Lord-level figures had deduced that this was a sign of the coming great era, a calm before the storm. When the suppression of the Great Dao was lifted again and all paths revived, it would be a brilliant golden age.

"Sect Master, I plan to be away for some time, and the duration is uncertain."

As a first seat of a peak, he was incredibly important to the Backer Sect, and he needed to inform the Sect Master before leaving.

"Be careful. The Eastern Region has been unstable recently. Three days ago, a second-rate force in the Wildlands Province was destroyed by evil spirits. Be cautious, and call for help if you encounter danger!"

Yun Tian Zhenren transmitted his voice.

"Understood!"

Hua Yunfei nodded. He liked the Backer Sect precisely because of this: harmony and reliability. Although they could be considered "cowardly" at times, they would never shy away from protecting their disciples when they were in trouble.

The Backer Sect, a pillar of support for everyone!

It made one stand tall and feel confident!
