Chapter 362: Master’s Past
Chapter 362: Master’s Past
After returning to Evil Moon Sect, Su Jingzhen went directly to Shen Yifeng’s courtyard without any hesitation.
Shen Yifeng was still in his pavilion.
As if nothing had happened.
Seeing Su Jingzhen approach, a smile curled up at the corner of Shen Yifeng’s mouth: “Today’s incident at Clear Wind Mountain was a big one, but the news probably hasn’t spread beyond Linjiang City yet.
Are you so scared that you want to hide here?”
Su Jingzhen smiled: “That’s not it, I just wanted to ask the Master about something.
Do you know about the Luoshui Yan Clan? How powerful is that clan?”
Luo Yuebai had told him that Shen Yifeng had also left Qingzhou before.
Even his current cultivation that has remained in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, was related to that past departure.
Since he had been wandering outside for so many years, he should have heard of that clan where Yan Xia was.But when he heard those four words, Shen Yifeng’s expression suddenly changed.
“Where did you hear about this force?”
Shen Yifeng’s voice was a bit agitated.
But before Su Jingzhen could answer, he continued on his own: “That’s right, Water Spirit Saint Body. I hadn’t thought of it before, but isn’t the Water Spirit Saint Body the legendary inherited physique of the Yan Clan?
It must be Yan Xia who told you, right?”
As he muttered to himself, Shen Yifeng calmed down again.
But it made Su Jingzhen even more curious.
He said excitedly, “Master, have you really heard of this force?”
Shen Yifeng nodded again: “More than just heard of it.”
His voice was tinged with emotion and a sense of the past.
This only piqued Su Jingzhen’s curiosity further.
He felt a stir in his heart, realizing that his master probably had some connection to the Luoshui Yan Clan where Yan Xia was.
This was quite a coincidence.
And if that were the case, Shen Yifeng’s cultivation level was probably not as simple as the people of Qingzhou imagined.
But at this moment, Su Jingzhen didn’t interrupt.
Shen Yifeng seemed to be lost in some memories.
He added: “Thirty years ago, my cultivation had already reached the Nascent Soul mid-stage. At that time, I was one of the most dazzling geniuses on the land of Qingzhou.
I was full of ambition and left Qingzhou directly.
I thought to myself that the heroes of the world were nothing more than that, and I had a sense of arrogance, believing that I could make a name for myself outside and become a legend, reaching the pinnacle of Zhongzhou!
When you’re young, which genius doesn’t think they are the protagonist of this world?
However, before I even reached the true Zhongzhou, following the flow of the Luo River, the powerful families along the riverbank were already beyond my reach.
In the eyes of those high-ranking families, cultivators from the peripheral regions like Qingzhou, Huangzhou, and Chizhou were nothing more than a group of barbarians.
They simply couldn’t be bothered with them.
Even if you were extremely talented, what would it matter? Some inherent concepts will never change, unless one’s cultivation can completely overshadow them one day.
This is the world of cultivation, and in the world of cultivation, strength ultimately prevails.”
As he spoke, Shen Yifeng’s voice was filled with anger.
But Su Jingzhen was getting more and more confused.
Shen Yifeng’s words were too vague.
He said some things, but it was as if he hadn’t said anything at all.
But before Su Jingzhen could ask more, Shen Yifeng continued: “The Luoshui Yan Clan is one of the most powerful forces along the Luo River, and the Water Spirit Saint Body has always been their Yan Clan’s inherited saintly physique.
As long as they are of the Yan Clan bloodline, once they awaken, no matter where they are, they will have means to immediately sense it, which is why there was such a commotion on Clear Wind Mountain before.
As for why Yan Xia ended up in our Qingzhou region, there may be another story behind it.”
As he spoke, Shen Yifeng’s voice returned to calm.
He then looked at Su Jingzhen, his expression extremely serious: “If you have any intentions towards Yan Xia, then this master must warn you, she has already fully awakened the Water Spirit Saint Body, and she will inevitably become the most brilliant existence in the Yan Clan in the future, unmatched among her peers!
The Water Spirit Saint Body belongs to one of the Five Elements Saint Bodies, and she will inevitably become one of the most brilliant figures in the cultivation world.
If you have the confidence to walk side by side with her, if you have the confidence to defeat all your competitors, then this old man will not object, and I will fully support you.
But at least for now, with your current strength, you may be considered good in Qingzhou, but once you leave Qingzhou and step onto a larger stage, you are nothing but an ant.
Therefore, this master must remind you, it might not be bad to be a local emperor in Qingzhou.”
Shen Yifeng’s voice was filled with sighs.
Su Jingzhen even heard a hint of regret.
He didn’t reply, nor did he deny it.
Instead, he said excitedly: “So, Yan Xia is destined to become a big shot in the cultivation world in the future?”
Shen Yifeng nodded: “If nothing unexpected happens, this is inevitable.
Brat, the cultivation world is real and cruel. Sometimes you have to admit that a person’s birth already determines his future ceiling.
Some people are born in Zhongzhou, while others are born in this Linjiang City.”
Su Jingzhen nodded, but his heart became more and more excited.
He had a golden finger, so walking in front of Yan Xia would be effortless.
And he didn’t have the intention, as Shen Yifeng thought, to take Yan Xia away or even compete for her.
When Yan Xia knelt down in the courtyard that day, swore to him the oath of heaven and declared her loyalty.
She was destined to be a subordinate!
At this moment, Su Jingzhen was thinking that as long as his strength increased again and when he stood in front of Yan Xia, with Yan Xia controlling the Yan Clan and him controlling Yan Xia, wouldn’t the power of the Luoshui Yan Clan be under his control?
This was a beautiful blueprint, but in Su Jingzhen’s eyes, it was also the best gift given to him at the moment.
Thinking of this, Su Jingzhen said to Shen Yifeng again: “Disciple will naturally not be too ambitious.
After seeing the power of the Luoshui Yan Clan, the disciple’s fighting spirit has become even stronger.
The strength of every force is the result of years of accumulation and the efforts of countless generations.
In the eyes of the disciple, our Evil Moon Sect Linjiang Branch is not inferior. As long as Yuebai and I are given time, the disciple is confident that he can also bring the Linjiang Branch to the height of those super forces outside Qingzhou.
This is not a joke, or a vision in the disciple’s heart, but a promise made by the disciple to you, Master.
It won’t be long. No matter what regrets you have in your heart, the disciple may be able to help you make up for them.”
As he spoke, Su Jingzhen’s voice was incredibly calm.
It was as if he was simply stating a simple fact to Shen Yifeng.
Shen Yifeng opened his mouth, about to instinctively retort and mock, but when he looked up, he saw Su Jingzhen’s eyes were incredibly clear and calm.
He subconsciously felt a sense that the boy wasn’t joking with him.
This kid’s Dantian was shattered, and he was taking the most orthodox path of physical cultivation. It seemed like he was going against the tide.
But at this moment, he subconsciously chose to believe him.
Shen Yifeng’s heart was shaken, and then he thought of the past events, and sighed again.
“Go away.
Even if there will be many strong men from various forces coming to Linjiang City during this period, as long as your master is here, no one will dare to directly enter the Evil Moon Sect to cause trouble.
You just need to stay within the Linjiang Branch’s territory, and I can guarantee your safety!”
“Then the disciple won’t disturb the Master any further.”
Su Jingzhen knew that Shen Yifeng didn’t want to say anything more.
He politely left.
The information he received today was a surprise to him.
He was even more eager for Feng Qingya to give him some information.
He knew that with Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s channels, some things might be more detailed.
Perhaps there would be information about Shen Yifeng’s past thirty years ago. He was truly curious about the relationship between his master and the Luoshui Yan Clan.
As for Shen Yifeng’s advice, he selectively filtered it out.
Under the state of his golden finger awakening, even if Su Jingzhen simply retired to the mountains and lived a secluded life, he could continuously grow stronger.
Under such conditions, if he still felt afraid, he would be unworthy of his transmigrator identity.
Watching Su Jingzhen respectfully exit his courtyard, Shen Yifeng’s expression once again revealed a hint of contemplation.
His eyes held tenderness, unwillingness, and an unforgettable longing…
“Qinghe… Are you alright?”
Every powerful person has a past that is difficult to look back on. Back then, on the banks of the Luo River, he was full of ambition, and she was gentle and elegant.
But the fleeting beauty of spring blossoms and the promise of love at first sight could not withstand the cruel reality of the cultivation world…
………
After leaving Shen Yifeng’s courtyard, Su Jingzhen went straight to Luo Yuebai’s place.
Something big had happened, and his heart was restless.
Thinking of Luo Yuebai’s soft and delicate body, a spark of lust ignited in his heart, and he wanted to find something to do with Luo Yuebai.
However, at this moment, a powerful formation had been erected in the courtyard where Luo Yuebai’s room was located.
“Is Yuebai cultivating again?”
Muttering to himself, Su Jingzhen didn’t choose to disturb her.
He came quietly and left quietly.
Back in his own courtyard, he practiced Python Scales Power at the edge of the pavilion. The power of the Flesh Body Golden Embroy fifth layer’s blood energy became more solid. After finishing his practice, his heart returned to complete calm.
He didn’t go anywhere.
He simply waited quietly for Feng Qingya to bring him the information he wanted.
Under this state, time quickly passed.
It was dusk when Su Jingzhen saw that the sky above Linjiang City was gradually filled with various levels of flying beasts heading towards Clear Wind Mountain.
He knew that after nearly a day of fermentation, the events of the morning had finally stirred the various forces.
He felt a hint of vigilance in his heart.
Although his master had promised him, but who could know the methods of the cultivators in the cultivation world?
Sometimes, matters of life and death still depend on oneself.
It’s the most foolish act to completely entrust your safety to others.
Just then, Feng Qingya’s figure appeared at the entrance of his courtyard.
This time, Elder Mu was with her.
