NOVEL WEB Chapter 94
The scene was very quiet for a moment.
The twelve Supreme Elders were puzzled.
They would welcome Jiang Chen leaving the sect.
It was somewhat understandable for Jiang Lianyue and the other two lunatics to follow, but what was Xiao Hongyi doing?
Why was she joining in the madness with her disciples?
What they didn’t know was that Xiao Hongyi was actually moved by Jiang Chen.
She never expected that this disciple, who usually behaved improperly, would show such a side of deep loyalty and righteousness!
She didn’t have much of an opinion about Lin Feng, nor did she have the capacity to have one, mainly because she was dizzy right now.
But seeing Jiang Chen like this, how could she, as his Master, not support him?
Even if it meant really leaving the sect, she would protect them to the end!More importantly, she suddenly didn’t feel dizzy anymore after thinking this way! It was an unprecedented clarity!
Now, back to Lin Feng. At this moment, he was almost moved to tears!
Setting aside Jiang Chen and the three lunatics, in his view, Xiao Hongyi was definitely leaving the sect for him!
To have such a master was truly a blessing for three lifetimes!
“Should we ask the ancestor again?” After a long while, finally, a Supreme Elder suggested.
“That’s all we can do,” the Supreme Great Elder sighed.
This matter was beyond his control.
If Xiao Hongyi and the others really left the sect, then the Ninth Peak would be as good as nonexistent.
Even if there was still Mu Kui, the fourth true disciple of the Ninth Peak, if he returned from his mission and saw that his Master and senior brothers had all left the sect, he would probably want to wander the world too.
And just as the elders were about to return to consult the Jiuyan ancestor.
“Whoosh—”
A gust of spiritual wind suddenly appeared, sweeping everything in sight.
The wind quickly converged into a hurricane, ignoring everyone else.
It lifted the struggling Lin Feng high into the air, slamming him back-first onto the ground and then smashing him down more than a dozen times.
After a while, Lin Feng was thrown around so much that his limbs were wailing, his eyes saw stars, and he vomited blood repeatedly, with no strength to resist.
Finally, when he stopped, he found himself immobilized by the giant hand, lying on the ground, unable to move!
At the same time, a jade slip appeared out of thin air as if manipulated by a hand, slowly unfolding in the air.
As the jade slip completely unfolded.
Lin Feng felt a pain in his forehead, and a drop of his blood flew out from there, eventually landing on the jade slip, forming the two characters “Lin Feng”!
Soon, the jade slip disappeared into thin air, and the surroundings returned to silence.
“Blood entered into the slip?!”
After a brief silence, the twelve Supreme Elders exclaimed in unison.
At this moment, almost all the high-ranking members of the Jiuyan Sect were gathered, but no one had taken action just now.
Doesn’t this mean…
Li Fadu laughed and said: “Lin Feng, it seems the ancestor has changed his mind, from now on you are a disciple of our Jiuyan Sect!”
Lin Feng didn’t know whether to be sad or happy.
Bearing the pain in his body, he got up and asked: “I was almost smashed to death just now! Is this a necessary step for taking blood?”
“Uh…”
After some hesitation, Li Fadu consoled: “The ancestor personally took your blood, so it had to be special. Don’t take it to heart. Just remember, in the thousand years since the Jiuyan Sect was established, you are the only one to receive this honor!”
These words made Lin Feng feel much better.
The twelve Supreme Elders, floating in the air, did not speak but communicate with each other through voice transmission.
“The ancestor is getting more and more irritable.”
“Alas, the ancestor changed his mind and accepted this Son of Destiny. It’s hard to tell if it’s a blessing or a curse.”
“Don’t think too much, just wait and see.”
“It’s better than the Ninth Peak being in name only!”
“Perhaps this is really an opportunity for the Jiuyan Sect to go to the Upper Domain?”
After communicating through voice transmission, they turned into streaks of light and disappeared.
Having achieved his goal, Jiang Chen took a deep breath and returned to his place with Jiang Lianyue and the others.
“Jiang Chen, you have made your master see you in a new light,” Xiao Hongyi said with a smile.
“Uh…” Jiang Chen was at a loss for words.
See him in a new light? How can that be?
First of all, based on nine lifetimes of experience, Xiao Hongyi is bound to be disappointed sooner or later.
Not to mention, this doesn’t fit his villain character.
Fortunately, now that Lin Feng has joined the sect, he can let loose to his heart’s content.
As long as he follows the plot when Xiao Hongyi is disappointed, he’ll make his escape first!
Then it will be a case of the sky’s the limit and the sea’s breadth for the fish to leap!
While keeping an eye on Lin Feng, he’ll quietly await ascension.
Such a plan is perfect, and just thinking about it gets him a little excited.
Initially, Jiang Chen was somewhat worried that Xiao Hongyi might go mad.
However, looking at her recent behavior, it seems he was overthinking it.
His beautiful Master is still normal.
At this moment, Sect Master Gu Changqing suddenly appeared in front of Lin Feng with a forced smile and said, “Since your blood has been recorded in the sect’s register, there’s no need for a combat test. From now on, you are the true disciple of Jiuyan Sect’s Ninth Peak!”
As his words fell, he waved his sleeve, and a cup of spiritual tea floated over from a distant table to hover in front of Lin Feng.
“Aren’t you going to offer tea and kowtow to your master?” he urged.
“Okay!”
Lin Feng nodded solemnly, took the tea with both hands and ran excitedly toward Xiao Hongyi.
But after a few steps, he looked puzzled.
Why did Xiao Hongyi, who had just been smiling, now look so rejecting?
Lin Feng didn’t think too much and continued to approach quickly.
When he reached Xiao Hongyi, he knelt down, lowered his gaze, and held up the spiritual tea, saying, “Disciple Lin Feng offers tea to Master. After the tea, I shall kowtow three times to always remember Master’s kindness!”
Xiao Hongyi managed a weak smile, trying to accept the tea.
But…
“Jiang Chen, my inner demons seem to have worsened. I feel it faintly every time I see Lin Feng…” Xiao Hongyi transmitted her thoughts to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was speechless.
What’s going on now? Why is the plot going awry?
Unable to figure it out, he could only gently pat Xiao Hongyi’s shoulder and give her a ‘hang in there!’ look.
Xiao Hongyi nodded, forced herself to take the tea, and took a light sip.
Then…
“Pfft!”
She spat it out directly! And all over Lin Feng’s face!
“???”
Wiping his face, Lin Feng blinked non-stop, his face almost turning into a question mark!
Jiang Chen was also stunned and in disbelief.
This was the tea offering for becoming a disciple and Xiao Hongyi actually spat it out?
Such an act was not only extremely damaging but also highly insulting!
Once he came to his senses, Lin Feng’s expression was the best proof, as if he had eaten something disgusting.
At this moment, Gu Changqing and the others were also wide-eyed, their mouths forming an ‘o’ shape.
They had never imagined this. They never expected the usually protective and biased Xiao Hongyi to spit out the tea for accepting a disciple!
“Junior Sister is still so sharp!”
Gu Changqing thought to himself, “This move is lethal to the heart! Unable to bear the humiliation, Lin Feng will either leave the sect or become a disciple of another peak! Thus, Junior Sister won’t be affected by Lin Feng’s heaven-defying luck!”
The other Peak Masters thought the same.
Worried that Lin Feng would turn to them to become his Master, these Peak Masters quickly found excuses to leave.
After all, not everyone can withstand the destiny of the Son of Destiny.
No one wanted to attract powerful enemies because of Lin Feng and jeopardize their own lives!
In just a moment, the Jiuyan Sect’s high-ranking members were left with only Xiao Hongyi.
Seeing that Lin Feng was about to leave, angry and possibly ready to run away at any moment, Jiang Chen quickly said, “Please forgive her, Junior Brother Lin. Master… gets dizzy from tea!”
Do you think I’m that stupid?
Lin Feng cursed in his heart!
Dizzy from tea? Can cultivators even get dizzy from tea?
Especially someone like Xiao Hongyi, a cultivator of the upper four realms.
Xiao Hongyi also felt she had gone too far, but she couldn’t control herself!
The spiritual tea was simply too hard to swallow, it was an instinctive reaction, not intentional.
“…As a master with a Postnatal Phoenix Body, I indeed get dizzy from tea,” Xiao Hongyi decided to tell a white lie, her fair cheeks blushing.
Postnatal Phoenix Body?
Lin Feng suddenly understood. He had heard of such a constitution.
The phoenix is one of the two divine birds, with the male being the phoenix and the female the feng. The so-called Postnatal Phoenix Body is when one incorporates the blood of a female phoenix into their body after birth, merging it with their heart’s blood.
Since it’s postnatal, indeed, some rare rejection symptoms might occur.
“Should I kowtow to you then?” Lin Feng asked.
“No need!” Xiao Hongyi felt even dizzier and quickly stopped him.
“I also get dizzy from people kowtowing to me.”
“…”
