Taking Wan Jianyi as Master! Geniuses All Have Privileges!

"Disciple Ji Changfeng greets Sect Leader Martial Uncle and Martial Uncle Cang Song."

Ji Changfeng bowed to Dao Xuan and the other man.

True Master Daoxuan nodded slightly.

A hint of appreciation appeared in his gaze as he looked at Ji Changfeng. "Nephew Changfeng, after several months of secluded cultivation, have you broken through to the Supreme Purity Realm?"

As soon as those words were spoken, Wan Jianyi and Cang Song both turned their gazes toward him.

Everyone knew this.

The Taiji Xuanqing Dao had three most difficult thresholds to break through: the Jade Pure Fourth Layer, Upper Clarity, and Supreme Purity.

These three realms were enormous barriers.

They had trapped countless people.

Had Ji Changfeng crossed it or not?!

At this moment.

Facing the gazes of Dao Xuan and the other two, Ji Changfeng smiled faintly. A trace of the true essence of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao emerged around him.

Upper Clarity!

Genuine Upper Clarity!

At this sight, Dao Xuan and the others immediately looked delighted.

He had broken through to Upper Clarity after cultivating for only five years?

What kind of talent was that?!

"Hahaha!" Cangsong Daoist laughed heartily and said in delighted surprise, "No wonder that brat Qi Hao couldn't even withstand a single move from you, Nephew Changfeng. So you've already broken through to the Supreme Purity Realm?!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, True Master Daoxuan looked at Cangsong Daoist in surprise. "Junior Brother Cang Song, Qi Hao is your chief disciple, isn't he? Why did he fight Changfeng?"

"Sect Leader Senior Brother, this is what happened..." Cangsong Daoist respectfully began recounting the entire matter from beginning to end.

Ever since learning that Wan Jianyi had not died.

His respect for Dao Xuan as sect leader had become much more heartfelt.

Cangsong Daoist glanced at Ji Changfeng and could not help sighing. "That one sentence from Nephew Changfeng stirred even my heart deeply. What spirit!!"

"What sentence?" Wan Jianyi was somewhat curious.

True Master Daoxuan also looked over.

Cangsong Daoist smiled faintly, his expression gradually turning solemn. "Those defeated by me have never been worthy of being considered my opponents. I will give you time to catch up, until you..."

"Can only gaze up at me from afar!"

As soon as those words fell, Wan Jianyi's heart shook.

For a moment, his blood boiled.

He seemed to recall the scene from back then, when he had led his fellow disciples into the Demonic Sect's headquarters.

"Sigh..."

Wan Jianyi let out a faint sigh.

Back then, he had been just as dashing, just as high-spirited and peerless, but...

Showing off always came at a price.

For example, this arm of his had been severed by the Vermilion Bird Saint Envoy of the Ghost King Sect.

Wan Jianyi shot Ji Changfeng an annoyed glance and warned, "Kid, you spout such arrogant words every day. Be careful someone doesn't teach you a lesson someday..."

He had to admit it.

Ji Changfeng really was more handsome than him.

Just listen to those flirtatious lines.

Each set was more impressive than the last.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Why had he never been able to say such outrageous things back then?

Wan Jianyi felt somewhat envious and jealous.

Ji Changfeng smiled faintly. "Senior, rest assured. That will never happen..."

His current combat strength was already approaching that of the older generation's Upper Clarity Experts. As long as he did not encounter those scheming old bastards, there would basically be no danger.

Much less being taught a lesson by anyone.

Wan Jianyi shook his head gently. After looking at Ji Changfeng and hesitating for a moment, he suddenly said:

"You... are you willing to take me as your master?"

As soon as those words were spoken, True Master Daoxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile appearing on his face.

Cangsong Daoist's eyes widened as his gaze swept back and forth between Wan Jianyi and Ji Changfeng. At this moment...

Only one thought remained in his mind.

Senior Brother Wan was taking a disciple?

Oh no! He had not brought any gifts with him.

Ji Changfeng was slightly stunned. He looked at Wan Jianyi in surprise, never expecting him to actually offer to take him as a disciple.

Wan Jianyi frowned slightly. "What? You're unwilling?"

"It is not that I am unwilling."

Ji Changfeng shook his head gently and explained, "Senior, this disciple already has a master..."

But before he could finish.

Wan Jianyi interrupted him directly.

"I know. You've already taken Tian Buyi as your master, but so what? Fatty Tian's temperament can't teach you anything. You might as well take me as your master..."

Wan Jianyi said impatiently, "If Tian Buyi has any objections, tell him to come find me!"

Seeing this, Ji Changfeng roughly understood what was going on.

Did he not see that True Master Daoxuan beside them had said nothing? Clearly, they had discussed this beforehand...

Thus, Ji Changfeng no longer hesitated.

Under the witness of True Master Daoxuan and Cangsong Daoist, he gave Wan Jianyi a formal bow of apprenticeship without hesitation and declared loudly:

"Disciple Ji Changfeng pays respects to Master!"

Over the years, whenever he came to Tongtian Peak, Wan Jianyi would test his swordsmanship. Not to mention that he had also taught him the True Art of Slaying Ghosts and Gods.

In any case, in name.

Wan Jianyi was already qualified to be considered Ji Changfeng's "master."

As for Dazhu Peak...

According to True Master Daoxuan, Ji Changfeng was still a disciple of Dazhu Peak as well, since Wan Jianyi could not really show himself in public.

In any case, from this moment onward.

Ji Changfeng had two masters.

They were both from the Qingyun Sect, so there was no need to fuss over it.

At this moment.

A smile appeared on Wan Jianyi's face. He solemnly reached out to help Ji Changfeng up, then gently patted him on the shoulder.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Wan Jianyi said "good" three times in a row.

To express the joy in his heart.

Cangsong Daoist silently stood to the side and watched. At this moment, tears were already streaming down his face...

As though witnessing Senior Brother Wan accept a disciple was an immense honor for him.

"Good disciple, as your master, there is nothing more I can teach you now. You have learned everything you should learn, but..."

"As long as you have not broken through to Grand Purity, I am qualified to be your master!"

A confident smile appeared on Wan Jianyi's face.

As soon as he finished speaking.

A powerful aura suddenly erupted from him.

The true essence of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao continuously swirled around his body.

Grand Purity!

The Grand Purity Realm!

At this sight, Cangsong Daoist's mouth fell open.

True Master Daoxuan beside him merely smiled without speaking.

Over the years, he and Wan Jianyi had successively broken through to the Grand Purity Realm long ago. If Ji Changfeng also broke through in the future...

Then the Qingyun Sect would have three Grand Purity experts!

With such a foundation, along with the Immortal Slaying Sword, they would be enough to dominate the world!

"Senior Brother Wan, you... you've already broken through to Grand Purity?" Cang Song still looked utterly shocked.

That was the Grand Purity Realm!

A realm that, from ancient times to the present, only the legendary Patriarch Qingye had ever reached...

And now, his Senior Brother Wan had actually broken through?!

Wan Jianyi glanced at Cang Song and said pointedly, "It's merely Grand Purity. Dao Xuan broke through years ago too. What is there to make such a fuss about?"

Hearing this, Cangsong Daoist was even more astonished.

He looked at True Master Daoxuan in surprise, and the reverence in his eyes deepened further.

"I never expected Sect Leader Martial Uncle and Master to both already be legendary Grand Purity experts!"

Ji Changfeng said with a look of "surprise."

Wan Jianyi waved his hand indifferently. "The Grand Purity Realm is nothing worth mentioning, nothing worth mentioning..."

Old Wan, you're showing off again.

Ji Changfeng curled his lips.

Nothing worth mentioning, right? Fine, I'll remember that.

True Master Daoxuan smiled and patted Ji Changfeng on the shoulder. "Nephew Changfeng, work hard. In some time, this Daoist will give you a gift."

"A gift?" Ji Changfeng was somewhat curious.

A thought crossed his mind. Could it be the Six Harmonies Mirror, which only the champion of the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Tournament could obtain?

"Sigh..." At this moment, Cangsong Daoist sighed softly and said somewhat awkwardly:

"Nephew Changfeng, please do not take offense. When I came out, I did not bring anything valuable with me. I will make up the congratulatory gift to you next time."

Hearing this, Ji Changfeng quickly waved his hands. "Martial Uncle Cang Song, what are you saying?"

No one would care about a congratulatory gift.

But Cang Song was precisely this sort of stubborn person. As long as it involved Wan Jianyi, he could never be casual about it...

Helplessly, Ji Changfeng could only say, "Martial Uncle Cang Song, there is really no need for any gift. If you must, could you do me a favor instead?"

"What favor? Nephew Changfeng, just say the word!" Cangsong Daoist waved a hand grandly.

Hearing this, Ji Changfeng first glanced cautiously at True Master Daoxuan, then slowly spoke before Cangsong Daoist:

"Martial Uncle Cang Song, I heard that every Seven Meridians Martial Arts Tournament selects opponents by drawing lots, so I would like to ask you for a favor..."

"Could you see whether, in the final four, you can arrange for me to face a Xiaozhu Peak disciple named Lu Xueqi?"

Upon hearing this, Cangsong Daoist was slightly stunned.

After hesitating for a while, he did not agree immediately. Instead, he first looked at True Master Daoxuan.

After all... Dao Xuan was the sect leader.

True Master Daoxuan pondered briefly. "Lu Xueqi? If I recall correctly, she seems to be the disciple Junior Sister Shuiyue accepted a few years ago. She is gifted and intelligent, and Shuiyue even passed the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword on to her..."

"Good disciple, have you taken a fancy to her?" Wan Jianyi suddenly interjected.

Hearing this, Ji Changfeng coughed lightly.

He said nothing.

He had indeed taken a fancy to her, but...

He could not possibly say that he had taken a fancy to Lu Xueqi the first time they met four years ago, could he?

Pah!

That would truly make him a beast!

What? You say that was Nai Qi?

Ahem, fine, no more pretending.

I am a beast...

Seeing this, the few old foxes immediately smiled.

Seeing that Dao Xuan did not refuse, Cangsong Daoist waved his hand and agreed to Ji Changfeng's request on the spot.

"No problem!"

"Leave this matter to me!"

True Master Daoxuan smiled without speaking and did not rebuke Cang Song for this under-the-table arrangement.

After all...

Geniuses had privileges.

Much less a Monster-level Genius like Ji Changfeng.
