A Sky-Reaching Talent

Lin Changkong looked at Ye Wuchen, who acted like a scoundrel but was incredibly satisfying, and was secretly amazed.

The Heavenly Fire Sect truly had an abundance of talent. To cultivate an elder like Ye Wuchen, with his personality, was truly rare.

Ye Wuchen's willingness to block Luo Qingyi for him greatly increased his good feelings towards the elder.

Luo Qingyi's face turned ashen with anger, but Ye Wuchen was also an elder, and his cultivation was not below hers, perhaps even higher.

If they were to fight, she wouldn't necessarily lose, but she certainly wouldn't win. However, with Ye Wuchen's mouth, he could definitely infuriate her to death.

Moreover, she truly had no evidence that Lin Changkong had maliciously bullied a fellow disciple. It was more that she looked down on him from the bottom of her heart because he came from the Servant Courtyard, and felt it was acceptable to suppress him.

But with Ye Wuchen's intervention, the situation was different.

If Ye Wuchen were to expose this matter, her reputation would be severely damaged. The Heavenly Fire Sect naturally allowed disciples to compete, and as long as it didn't escalate too much, no one would interfere.

Her rash action was already wrong, and Ye Wuchen was notoriously talkative. If he were to spread this outside, she would truly have no face left.

Ye Wuchen, on the other hand, looked relaxed and said, "If you're not convinced, then let's fight. Following your logic, whoever gets beaten has the right, so I'll break your legs too, and you'll definitely have the right. Then you can go complain to the Sect Master, and it'll be a sure thing. Or, you could sacrifice one of your beautiful legs and give it a try?"

Luo Qingyi suppressed her anger and snorted, "Hmph! Ye Wuchen, I'll be magnanimous today and not argue with you. I will pay close attention to Lin Changkong in the future. He had better not give me any leverage, or I'll make him pay!"

Ye Wuchen rolled his eyes, "Magnanimous? Bullshit! Just say you're not confident you can win, what's the point of spewing such nonsense. I'll also keep a close eye on Lin Changkong from now on, so you'd better not give me any leverage either, or I'll fuck you to death."

"Ye Wuchen!!!"

Luo Qingyi, who had already suppressed her anger, immediately flew into a rage and exploded when she heard Ye Wuchen's sudden final remark. Her face turned from ashen to a liver-like color. She wished she could devour Ye Wuchen alive.

Lin Changkong, hearing Ye Wuchen's vulgar words, secretly gave him a thumbs-up, exclaiming, "Awesome!"

Ye Wuchen waved his hand, "This is how I speak. If you're not convinced, fight me directly. If you don't want to fight, then get lost. I don't have time to waste with you."

Luo Qingyi's face trembled fiercely, and she turned to leave, her icy voice drifting on the wind, "Ye Wuchen, one day I will rip your mouth apart!"

Ye Wuchen chuckled, completely disregarding her words.

Gong Lian and Gong Cheng saw the situation and knew it was bad, so they immediately dragged the unconscious Liu Qing away. Ye Wuchen didn't stop them. Although his words were harsh, he wasn't to the point of bullying disciples like Luo Qingyi. Even if they had a grudge with Lin Changkong, that was a matter between disciples, and they should resolve it themselves.

Lin Changkong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Elder Ye."

Ye Wuchen waved his hand, "Thank you for what? Luo Qingyi is famously a bully who picks on the weak. I just can't stand her face. Besides, even if I hadn't come, she would have at most threatened you, but wouldn't have dared to use heavy hands. The sect rules are there, and she doesn't have the ability to ignore them. At most, she would have given you a confinement service. But now it's different. You made her lose face, so she'll definitely find ways to target you. While she can't act directly, it's easy for her to find a few disciples to do it. So, you need to be prepared. We're not afraid of trouble, but we can't be too careless."

Lin Changkong nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, Elder Ye. I will be prepared. By the way, Elder Ye, what is Luo Qingyi's current cultivation realm?"

Ye Wuchen said, "Core Formation fifth level. What, judging by your demeanor, you want to beat her up yourself?"

Lin Changkong: "I do have that idea."

"Hahahaha..."

Ye Wuchen burst into laughter, patting his shoulder heavily, looking very appreciative. "I like your personality! I'll remember this. I'll wait to see you beat her up yourself one day. You fellow, you really have the 'second longest thing on your forehead,' the 'potential to fuck the heavens'!"

"Hahahaha..."

Looking at Ye Wuchen laughing heartily, even Lin Changkong, who had lived two lives, felt a twitch in his heart. If you had even a shred of dignity as an elder, I wouldn't believe you could say such vulgar words!

Separate courtyard.

Zhang Qingfeng looked at the crippled Gong Cheng and Gong Lian brothers, who were crying, his face extremely grim. "You're saying Lin Changkong, who was Body Refining Ninth Level this morning, broke through to the Qi Gathering Realm this afternoon and also beat up Liu Qing and broke your legs?"

Zhang Qingfeng felt that the words he was repeating were almost unbelievable. Breaking through a major realm in half a day, was that even possible? But he had personally seen the injuries of Gong Lian and the others, so it couldn't be fake.

Gong Cheng cried, "It's absolutely true, Senior Brother. That kid, I don't know what's going on, but he's incredibly fierce. You have to find a way to avenge us. We can't have suffered this humiliation for nothing."

Zhang Qingfeng frowned, his expression growing even more unpleasant. "Hmph! A nobody from the Servant Courtyard could never break through to the Qi Gathering Realm in half a day. He must have been hiding his strength earlier. This also aligns with the information my cousin sent."

A good-for-nothing is a good-for-nothing. Even with a bit of luck, they'll never amount to anything. Don't worry, I'll handle this. The New Disciple Martial Competition is the day after tomorrow. By then, I'll make sure he leaves on a stretcher, or perhaps never stands up again in his life!"

Zhang Qingfeng snorted, his eyes full of killing intent.

Lin Changkong returned to his residence, pondering his thoughts along the way.

It seemed highly likely that Luo Qingyi was Zhang Qingfeng's master. If that were the case, their feud would be difficult to resolve peacefully.

He wasn't worried about Zhang Qingfeng, who was only at the Qi Gathering Realm. Starting tomorrow, he would receive a hundred years of cultivation daily, so catching up to Zhang Qingfeng wouldn't be difficult.

However, Luo Qingyi would be trickier. She was at the fifth level of the Core Formation realm, which would definitely take some time.

Furthermore, with the talent of his current body, breaking through to the Core Formation realm would be a major hurdle.

The higher the realm, the greater the talent required for breakthroughs. It wasn't something that could be achieved simply by accumulating time.

Still, this didn't cause him too much worry. He believed that as long as he had resources, breaking through would only be a matter of time.

But he wanted to reach the Core Formation realm faster. At that time, he would personally beat Luo Qingyi until she was begging for mercy.

"No rush. With my cheat abilities, am I supposed to be afraid of her? What a joke!"

Lin Changkong chuckled and slept soundly.

He woke up the next day and the first thing he did was claim his cultivation.

"A hundred years of cultivation. I want to see what level I can reach. But this time, I need to focus not only on improving my realm but also my martial arts."

Lin Changkong opened the Body Tempering Pills he had snatched from Gong Cheng and Gong Lian yesterday and downed them all in one go.

For ordinary people, consuming so many Body Tempering Pills at once would be impossible. Not only could they not digest them, but they might even explode.

But he had the system, so there would be no after-effects. He had nothing to fear.

"System, claim cultivation."
