I Refuse to Believe Chu Feng Can Nurture Another Saint Physique Disciple

"Yue'er, are you willing to become my disciple?"

Sword Martial King was the first to descend from the sky, landing in front of Liu Yue'er.

Although he knew the little girl was very likely a descendant of the Carefree Sword King, if he seized the initiative, he might be able to take this precious jade under his wing.

Liu Yue'er gave no answer, merely glancing at Xiao Chen as he walked away.

Naturally, that small gesture did not escape the Carefree Sword King's notice.

Standing high in the sky, he looked down and said, "Yue'er, if you want to catch up to Xiao Chen, come with your ancestor."

The words shocked everyone present.

No one had expected Liu Yue'er to be a descendant of the Carefree Sword King.

The outer disciples all looked at Liu Yue'er with envy.

Sword Martial King alone clenched his back teeth. That old fellow really has no shame.

Hearing this, Liu Yue'er quickly made her decision.

"Yue'er is willing to follow Ancestor and cultivate, and learn the supreme arts."

"Good."

A victor's smile appeared on the Carefree Sword King's face.

He had expected Liu Yue'er to hesitate a little.

Fortunately, the appearance of that little fellow Xiao Chen had done him a great favor.

Though Sword Martial King was unwilling to accept it, he still had to save face. He cupped his hands slightly and said, "Congratulations on being reunited with your descendant, Dao Brother."

Naturally, he would never admit that Liu Yue'er had chosen the Carefree Sword King because he was stronger.

The Carefree Sword King smiled. "Brother Jianwu, thank you and your Sword Dao Institute for nurturing Yue'er all these years, allowing my descendant to awaken her Saint Physique.

"But speaking of which, Yue'er, I remember you were only at the late stage of the Dao Foundation Realm during the outer sect competition.

"Why has your cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds over the past six months?"

Hearing this, Sword Martial King felt an urge to hit someone. *You old bastard Carefree.

*It was bad enough that you snatched a disciple right out from under me, but now you're actually showing off in public.

Haven't you made me lose enough face?

Liu Yue'er said respectfully, "To tell you the truth, Ancestor, ever since the outer sect competition, I have been training outside the academy with Senior Brother Xiao, and we had a fortuitous encounter.

"Most importantly, I also received guidance from Chief Chu. Under his guidance, I comprehended nine-tenths Sword Intent.

"Only then did I break through to the True Fate Realm. While breaking through, I also comprehended my very own Sword Intent."

When she finished, the entire place fell silent.

Even the Carefree Sword King had not expected Liu Yue'er's breakthrough to be connected to the Miscellaneous Dao Institute.

And from what the little girl had said, it seemed that brat Chu Feng had given her quite a lot of help.

Sword Martial King's face was especially dark at this point. He had thought Liu Yue'er would say something about receiving guidance at the Sword Dao Institute.

That would have made him look good too, but instead, the little girl had actually praised that mortal Chu Feng.

Wasn't she saying that all her years of cultivation at the Sword Dao Institute couldn't compare to a few words of guidance from Chu Feng?

"Oh?"

The Carefree Sword King asked with great interest, "I didn't expect Chu Feng to have such ability."

Liu Yue'er nodded sincerely. "Martial Uncle Chu really is formidable. He gave me just a few pointers, and I benefited greatly."

"In that case, we should go and thank that brat Chu Feng in person."

The more the Carefree Sword King spoke, the happier he became. He didn't care at all whether it was true.

What mattered was leaving Sword Martial King with nothing to say.

"Thank you, Ancestor."

Liu Yue'er's expression was full of respect.

"Let's go."

The Carefree Sword King took Liu Yue'er and left straight away.

Before leaving, Liu Yue'er secretly gave Xiao Chen a signal, one known only to the two of them.

When Xiao Chen saw it, he left at once, not lingering there any longer.

After hearing all this, everyone from the Sword Dao Institute wore a look of disbelief.

One disciple even murmured, "Who would have thought Chief Chu was so formidable?"

"That's right. Senior Brother Xiao alone might have been luck, but add Senior Sister Liu, and luck can't explain it."

"Why don't we go borrow some books from the Miscellaneous Dao Institute too? We might even receive guidance from Chief Chu."

Every word reached Sword Martial King's ears.

Each one was like a knife carving into his heart, making him feel especially miserable.

"Chu Feng, you damned bastard! You're deliberately undermining the foundations of my Sword Dao Institute!"

At those words, everyone present fell silent.

An elder of the Sword Dao Institute said, "Chief, don't be angry. That Chu Feng was merely lucky."

"Exactly. Whether it's the disciple he took in or the one he guided, they were both exceptionally gifted to begin with. Even without him, they would still have shone."

"That's right. I refuse to believe he can turn that brat Cao Youqian into someone with a Saint Physique too!"

"Achoo..."

At the Miscellaneous Dao Institute.

Chu Feng sneezed several times in a row. He looked up at the sun hanging in the sky and muttered:

"It isn't even cold. How did I suddenly catch a cold?"

"It must be because I've been exercising less. I'll go practice some Taiji Fist first."

Completely unaware of what had happened at the Sword Dao Institute, Chu Feng began practicing Taiji Fist in the courtyard.

News that another Saint Physique had appeared at the Sword Dao Institute soon spread through the various institutes.

Originally, it had only been a clash between the Sword Dao Institute and the Heavenly Spirit Institute.

But as Liu Yue'er's words spread, many people began to wonder what exactly made Chu Feng of the Miscellaneous Dao Institute so remarkable.

"Dean Chen, do you think that brat Chu Feng is really a mortal?"

In the dean's courtyard, an elder asked the question curiously.

"Old Xia, to tell you the truth, that brat is merely hiding his abilities."

The dean smiled. "At our Dao-Seeking Academy, aside from the chiefs of the various institutes and elders like you, no one can defeat him.

"With his cultivation, he has every right to hold the position of chief of the Miscellaneous Dao Institute."

Elder Xia's expression changed slightly. "Dean Chen, you aren't joking with me, are you? When Chu Feng entered our Dao-Seeking Academy, he was a mortal without any cultivation.

"How could he have become someone second only to the institute chiefs in just a few short years?"

The dean took a sip of tea. "Don't forget that the Miscellaneous Dao Institute has its own accumulated resources. Chu Feng inherited those resources, so it's no surprise that he has achieved what he has today."

Elder Xia nodded at that. As for where Chu Feng had obtained them and how strong he was now, he didn't care in the slightest.

After all, Chu Feng was one of their Dao-Seeking Academy's people, and he kept a low profile in his conduct. Elder Xia liked people like that.

While the various institutes were eagerly discussing Liu Yue'er,

Liu Yue'er and Xiao Chen had already accepted a mission to train beyond the mountain and had set off for Great Liang with a deacon from the Dao-Seeking Academy's External Affairs Institute to recruit disciples.

Of course, among the nine institutes, the Body Cultivation Institute had paid no attention to Liu Yue'er's affairs at all.

Their attention was fixed on the disciple cultivating in the cold pool.

"Elder Niu, Elder Niu, seven times seven makes forty-nine days-time's up!"

A Body Cultivation Institute disciple raced back to the institute as fast as he could and delivered the enormously good news to Elder Niu.

"Come, follow me to welcome that disciple out of seclusion."

Elder Niu stood up as he spoke, his face full of excitement.

After taking just a couple of steps, he stopped and said to the disciple who had brought the news, "Take my token, go to the inner court and tell Elder Hong about this."

"Yes."

Hearing Elder Niu's words, the disciple admired him all the more.

Even at a time like this, he wasn't trying to claim all the credit for himself. No wonder he was in charge of the outer sect.

Elder Niu watched the disciple depart and thought, My good days are almost here!
