The Dean: You're a Half-Saint, Yet You Won't Leave the Mountain to Make a Name for Yourself

The next day, when the sun was high in the sky.

Chu Feng rode his eagle to the outside of the Dean's villa.

Both the man and the eagle bowed respectfully towards the courtyard.

"Disciple Chu Feng has come to pay his respects to the Dean."

"Your son, the Golden Eagle, has come to pay his respects to his godfather."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng turned and looked at the Golden Eagle with a strange expression, blurting out instinctively, "I never expected you to be this kind of eagle."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the abbot's aged and kind voice echoed from the courtyard.

"Little Feng, come in."

"Dean Xie."

Chu Feng led the Golden Eagle toward the villa. After passing through the front yard, they soon saw the dean in the pavilion in the back yard.

"Golden Eagle, I am not your father. How many times have I told you not to call me godfather? Why won't you listen?"

The dean's face hardened the moment he saw the Golden Eagle.

The Golden Eagle, completely devoid of its usual domineering demeanor, timidly replied like a child who had done something wrong, "Yes, Godfather."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng almost couldn't help but add, "You'll do it again next time."

The dean simply shook his head helplessly, showing no intention of reprimanding the Golden Eagle, and turned his gaze to Chu Feng.

"Little Feng, what brings you here to see me?"

Chu Feng cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the Dean, this disciple wishes to take Elder Bing with him to the mortal world to temper his Dao heart."

After listening to his words, the dean stroked his beard and said calmly, "I grant your permission."

"Dean Xie."

Chu Feng said with a smile, "Although the Dao-Seeking Academy does not restrict the travel of the heads of each academy, as the head of an academy, you still have to report when you leave the Dao-Seeking Academy. Otherwise, if something happens and you can't find anyone, many things will be impossible to handle."

However, this situation does not exist in the Miscellaneous Dao Institute Miscellaneous Dao Institute, since there are only a handful of people there.

The dean said, quite annoyed, "Why are you being so polite with me, kid? I want you to go out and gain some experience, even if you don't want to go out. A dignified Half-Saint, instead of making a name for yourself in the world, you're stuck in this little Miaomiao Mountain taking on disciples. Only you would do that."

"..."

Chu Feng was speechless, thinking to himself: Is being cautious wrong?

"The dean is right."

The dean took a sip of tea, then, as if suddenly remembering something important, said, "By the way, since you're going on a trip, I also have something for you to do."

Chu Feng: "Please give your instructions, Dean."

The dean smiled and said, "Young man, there's no need for such formalities with me. This time, I need you to go to the Myriad Demon Mountain and Fox Immortal Valley in the south to meet a Great Sage of the Fox Clan and bring a fox demon to our Dao-Seeking Academy for cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng subconsciously asked, "Do you want to personally guide me?"

The dean stroked his beard and said, "We'll see. If you like him, you can take him as your disciple."

Chu Feng asked, "Is there a time limit?"

"You can go anytime within the next thirty years."

As the dean spoke, he took out a sachet from his storage ring and handed it to Chu Feng.

"This is a token. When you see the Great Sage Thousand Illusions, just give it to her."

Chu Feng accepted the sachet with both hands and looked at the dean with a gossipy gaze. He really wanted to ask a question that would be too risky, but in the end he chose to follow his heart and be prudent.

The dean, of course, saw through Chu Feng's little scheme and said with a smile, "Don't overthink it, kid. I've only met that Great Sage Thousand Illusions a few times. This is just to fulfill a wish of an old friend."

Chu Feng nodded and said with a smile, "I understand, the dean has a friend who likes vixens."

"Um?"

The dean stared intently at Chu Feng: "Are you saying that my friend is actually me?"

"No, I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!"

Chu Feng denied it three times in a row, and even he himself couldn't find a single fault with it.

The dean laughed, "You little rascal, you love to be sarcastic and unpredictable, just like Old Kong. I'll tell you, this sachet's previous owner was Old Kong."

Chu Feng: "..."

He'd stumbled upon his cheap master's gossip, what a pity, it wasn't the dean's. As for his cheap master's affairs, he couldn't be bothered to gossip, after all, that guy had nothing better to do than brag.

He replied respectfully, "Dean, rest assured, I will handle this matter perfectly."

"Okay, you can go now."

The dean looked very tired and waved his hand at Chu Feng.

"This disciple takes his leave."

"Your son takes his leave."

Just as Chu Feng opened his mouth, the Golden Eagle beside him chimed in with a comment.

The man and the eagle left the dean's villa at the same time.

"Brother Eagle, you really aren't afraid of death, daring to forcibly acknowledge the Dean as your godfather?"

As soon as Chu Feng stepped out of the courtyard, he gave the Golden-Winged Eagle King a thumbs up.

The Golden-Winged Eagle King gestured to him in a shushing manner. "This isn't the place to talk. If you don't want to get beaten up, go back to Miaomiao Mountain first."

"You actually know what fear is?"

Chu Feng couldn't help but make a joke.

The Golden-Winged Eagle King ignored Chu Feng, leaving him with only a cryptic view of his back.

Chu Feng jumped onto the back of the Golden-Winged Eagle King and flew towards Miaomiao Mountain.

As soon as he returned to Miaomiao Mountain, Elder Bing greeted him, "Sir, what did the Dean say?"

"Well..."

Chu Feng sighed deeply, "I originally just wanted to travel discreetly, but I didn't expect the dean to make me come out of seclusion to make a name for myself. It's really a headache!"

Elder Bing: "..."

She suddenly felt a little unwilling to talk to her husband anymore; why was he showing off in that tone?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Chu Feng said, "Now everything is ready. We're just waiting for Caiyi to make a breakthrough in her cultivation. As her master, I can't just go out Xiaoyao enjoy myself until this little girl has even begun to cultivate."

Elder Bing did not object. She was also a master and would return to the mountain every month to guide her disciples in their cultivation, as was her custom.

Should we bring a few disciples with us this time?

Chu Feng shook his head. "I don't plan to take on any disciples. Do you want to?"

Elder Bing pondered for a moment, "I don't plan to bring them either. I'll make arrangements for them in the next few days, and I'll also have my top disciple at the Spirit Nurturing Realm give them some pointers."

"Then we'll just bring Brother Eagle along on the trip."

Chu Feng then returned to his study to check the contents of his storage ring to see if there was anything he needed to prepare.

In a secluded courtyard on Miaomiao Mountain.

Chu Caiyi is currently in seclusion, cultivating in order to avoid being disturbed by outsiders. She has prepared several Fasting Pill and spends her days visualizing the Chaos Gods and Devils Visualization Diagram and her nights visualizing the moon, resting only for three hours each day.

Time passed day by day, and forty-nine days had gone by since Chu Caiyi went into seclusion.

After returning from moon-gazing that day, she did not rest, but went to the visualization diagram and continued her practice.

Just as Chu Caiyi's gaze fell on the visualization diagram, she suddenly noticed that the diagram had changed; a bright moon had appeared on the originally chaotic diagram.

The moment the bright moon appeared, she found that her surroundings had undergone a complete transformation; she was now in a state of chaos.

Before Chu Caiyi could even react to what was happening, the moon in the chaos had already transformed into a blurry figure...
