Chapter 25: Ye Luo’s Determination!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Sky Mist Mountain was still shrouded in clouds and mist under the illumination of the night sky, appearing very quiet.
However, the Daoless Sect on Sky Mist Mountain had become a little strange.
In the main hall of the Daoless Sect, three pairs of eyes were looking at each other.
The air was unusually still.
The three of them each had their own thoughts.
Chu Yuan was in a daze as he stared blankly at Ye Luo, who seemed to have undergone a huge transformation. His aura had become ethereal and otherworldly.
Although he did not know what the golden mark on his forehead was, it looked very cool and handsome…
What did Ye Luo comprehend during the time I was gone?
On the other side, Ye Luo was also stunned, but he was looking at Zhang Han. He had mixed feelings.
Master has taken in another disciple.
Wasn’t I the only disciple that Master was going to take in? Wasn’t I the one who would inherit the sect in the future?
Does Master not love me anymore?
Zhang Han, who was standing at the end, was also stunned. He looked from Chu Yuan to Ye Luo.
Why… Why do I feel that Eldest Senior Brother is stronger than Master?
This must be an illusion!
Yes, it must be an illusion!
The three of them stared at each other for a long time.
In the end, it was Chu Yuan who spoke first.
“Alright, what are you all standing around for? Han’er, you can go down first. The sect is quite big, so you can walk around and familiarize yourself with it.
“Luo’er, stay behind. I intend to steal some cultivation techniques from you… Ahem, I mean, I intend to guide you in your cultivation.”
Chu Yuan waved his hand and let Zhang Han leave first.
Ye Luo was made to stay behind.
Don’t ask why he wanted Ye Luo to stay. He just wanted to steal his cultivation technique.
Zhang Han naturally did not have any thoughts of rejecting this. He cupped his hands and said, “I will follow Master’s orders!”
He nodded at his Eldest Senior Brother as a form of greeting. After receiving Ye Luo’s nod, he obediently left the hall.
Soon, only Chu Yuan and Ye Luo were left in the hall.
Chu Yuan put on an act as he sat on the main hall’s throne. He looked down at Ye Luo indifferently and said slowly, “Luo’er, it looks like you’ve gained a lot during the time I’ve been away from the sect.”
Although his tone was very calm, Chu Yuan couldn’t help but feel a little sad as he had fallen from the Nascent Soul stage to the Golden Core stage.
On the other hand, his disciple had such a huge harvest.
This made his heart ache.
No!
He had to obtain Ye Luo’s cultivation technique. If he didn’t obtain what Ye Luo had comprehended, he would have really suffered a huge loss.
When Ye Luo heard his Master’s words, he didn’t dare to be careless. He said respectfully, “Everything I have now is thanks to Master’s nurturing! If it wasn’t for Master’s guidance before leaving the sect, this disciple definitely wouldn’t have made such rapid progress.”
My guidance before leaving the sect? What did I mention before leaving the sect? Why don’t I remember giving you any guidance? Could it be that I have amnesia?
Forget it, forget it. Since you said that I had given you guidance, let’s leave it at that.
Chu Yuan was very confused, but his expression did not change.
He took an ancient key out of his sleeve and handed it to Ye Luo.
“Luo’er, ever since you became my disciple, I have never given you any treasures. Today, I will give you an item. You must take care of it well.”
In order to get the information that Ye Luo had comprehended, he had to take it step by step. He had to give him some benefits first before asking about his cultivation technique later.
As for the key…
Of course, it was the key that the scheming and unkind Grand Elder had given him to make fun of him. Anyway, this thing was useless to him. He might as well hoodwink Ye Luo and treat it as his apprenticeship gift.
Chu Yuan believed that Ye Luo would not suspect anything.
Well, to be precise, he was very confident in his ability to hoodwink.
If he said that the key was a treasure, how could Ye Luo deny it?
When Ye Luo saw Chu Yuan hand over the key, he hurriedly received it respectfully. He picked up the ancient key, looked around, and fell into deep thought. He could vaguely sense the existence of an extremely sharp Dao aura within the key.
This was an absolute treasure!
Before he could thank his Master, however, Chu Yuan had stood up and slowly walked to the entrance of the hall, with his back facing Ye Luo.
His voice turned serious as he said, “Are you unable to tell what this is?
“Don’t look down on this key. This key belongs to a supreme expert. Back then, I had a narrow and tough victory over the expert before I managed to obtain this key.
“This key contains some kind of fortuitous encounter. Once you obtain this key, you must try to comprehend it every day and find the fortuitous encounter as soon as possible. Do you understand?”
Hehe, perhaps he had previously said some things that allowed Ye Luo to comprehend the Dao.
He admitted that.
If he could comprehend anything from this broken key, he would swallow his Sect Leader’s throne on the spot!
No matter how impressive a Dao Body was, it was impossible to comprehend anything from a broken key!
This could be considered Chu Yuan’s little revenge.
Who asked you to backstab me?
I’ll let you try to comprehend a broken key and waste your time. Then, I’ll learn your cultivation technique. Finally, I’ll kick you out of the sect. Look, I have arranged everything nicely for you!
On the other side, Ye Luo didn’t know what his Master was thinking. He held the key tightly and nodded. “Master, I understand! I will definitely comprehend it every day and seek the opportunity as soon as possible. I will not let down Master’s expectations!”
Chu Yuan nodded in satisfaction before turning around and coughing twice to cover up his awkwardness. “Luo’er, ever since you entered the sect, Master has never properly guided you. Master will now properly guide you. Tell me everything you’ve comprehended. I’ll help you perfect it.”
After saying that, he was extremely excited.
He, Chu Yuan, was finally going to have a good cultivation technique.
God knew how poor he was.
The only cultivation technique he had on him right now was a Qi Refinement Stage Basic Cultivation Technique he had bought from Springfield City after spending all his money…
However, Ye Luo shook his head decisively when he heard that. He said firmly, “Master has taught me enough. I dare not ask for Master’s guidance anymore!”
It was obvious that this new Junior Brother of his had already made him feel threatened. He did not want to let down his Master. He wanted to prove his ability to his Master!
He, Ye Luo, did not need any guidance to comprehend the Dao runes!
This was the only thought in Ye Luo’s mind.
The moment this was said, Chu Yuan froze and turned into a statue.
“It’s alright. I’ll give you some pointers so that you won’t take any detours.” Chu Yuan forced a smile while saying that.
However, Ye Luo was abnormally determined. He cupped his fists and said, “Master! Disciple can resolve all the problems on my own! Please believe in this disciple, Master! Disciple will not let down Master’s expectations. This disciple here does not dare to ask for Master’s guidance anymore! This disciple will take his leave. I wish Master great health!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the hall without the slightest pause. His back seemed to be extraordinarily firm.
Ye Luo left just like that…
Chu Yuan was dumbfounded.
Hey, hey. He had yet to find a cultivation technique.
Yet, Ye Luo was leaving just like that!?
Couldn’t he give him the cultivation technique before leaving?
Chu Yuan wanted to cry, but no tears came out of his eyes. He could only silently pick up his early-stage Qi Refinement Stage Basic Cultivation Technique and attempt to comprehend it…
