"But... but I can’t do anything," Nie Xiuyuan said, and in that moment, he seemed to age decades. His master was right. If even escaping reality couldn’t make him happy, what meaning was left in his life? Chu Feng smiled and said, "Who says you can’t do anything? Don’t you know how to brew wine? Don’t think you can use this excuse to get out of brewing wine for me. I went to a lot of trouble to get you transferred here from the External Affairs Institute. If you can’t brew even one pot of Sacred Wine, wouldn’t all my effort be wasted?" Sacred Wine. When Nie Xiuyuan heard those words, a spark lit up in his eyes. If there was anything he still cared about, it was brewing Sacred Wine, and once more experiencing that intoxicating, dreamlike feeling after drinking it. He bowed respectfully to Chu Feng and said, "Master, I will do my best to brew Sacred Wine as soon as possible." Chu Feng nodded slightly and turned his gaze to Ye Beixuan. "Beixuan, is there anything you want to ask?" With a determined expression, Ye Beixuan said, "I have nothing more to ask, Master. I just want to become stronger, so I can protect everything I want to protect." "Good." Chu Feng patted Ye Beixuan on the shoulder. "Then work hard at your cultivation. If one day you run into something you can’t handle, just tell me. Your master will always back you up. Our Miscellaneous Dao Institute will always be your greatest support." Ye Beixuan, who now truly understood the meaning of 'support' in this life, said respectfully, "Master, I will remember your teachings." Chu Feng’s words untangled the knots in both Ye Beixuan’s and Nie Xiuyuan’s hearts. Everyone returned to their own residences. Elder Bing watched the disciples leave, then turned to Chu Feng and said, "Sir, now I understand why you’re called a peerless teacher. Not only do you guide disciples in their cultivation, but you can also help them resolve the knots in their hearts." Chu Feng smiled and said, "Elder Bing, you flatter me. As the saying goes: A teacher is one who propagates the Dao, imparts knowledge, and resolves doubts. I’m just guiding them onto the right path. As for how far they’ll go, that depends on themselves." ... The Wendao Academy’s disciple recruitment event soon came to an end. That evening, As usual, Chu Feng was in his courtyard, leisurely fanning himself and reading a storybook. As the sun was about to set, he heard footsteps outside the courtyard. Without looking, Chu Feng knew it was his disciples returning. Whether or not they had accepted any new disciples, he didn’t care—recruitment was all about fate. He continued reading as if he hadn’t heard anything. Outside the main residence. Qin Qin and the others walked lightly through the gate and into the courtyard. At the very back were a man and a woman. The man’s appearance was plain, but the woman was breathtakingly beautiful, unmatched even in the imperial harem, with every movement exuding elegance and nobility. Neither of them looked like cultivators at all. "We greet Master," everyone said, bowing deeply after entering the courtyard. "Mhm," Chu Feng replied lightly, finally putting down his book and turning his gaze to Qin Qin and the others. Soon, he noticed the man and woman standing behind them. "Introduce yourselves," he said. The man and woman exchanged glances. The young man stepped forward and said respectfully, "Disciple Han Ping greets Master." The woman also stepped forward, bowing gently. "Disciple Cai Yi greets Master." "Mhm," Chu Feng nodded, using his world-ending eyes to look at the two of them. Both carried great fortune. However, behind this fortune lay significant karma for both, especially the woman named Cai Yi—her luck was shrouded by a dark cloud, an omen of impending disaster. He looked more closely and found that she actually possessed two distinct destinies. Chu Feng instinctively peered into her soul and saw that within it, there was another soul—not simply dormant, but sealed. Around this soul were twelve ancient divine script seals, each stronger than the Saint Realm. Though the two souls shared the same face, Chu Feng felt they were completely different. One was ordinary, just like the Cai Yi before him. The other, though sealed, gave off an aura of timelessness and immense power. Is this a case of innate twin souls, or the work of some supreme figure? These newcomers are quite interesting. Chu Feng’s lips curled into a faint smile. "Beixuan, take the two of them to find a place to stay. I’m tired today. Come see me again tomorrow after sunrise." "Yes, Master." At that moment, both Han Ping and Cai Yi felt nervous. They’d both heard of Half Saint Chu’s reputation, and before seeking apprenticeship at the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, they’d both summoned all their courage. Watching so many people get eliminated, they had their doubts, but never expected to actually pass the trial. A moment later, Ye Beixuan returned to the main residence. When Chu Feng saw him, he asked, "Are they settled in?" Ye Beixuan replied respectfully, "Master, everything is arranged." Chu Feng took a sip of tea and asked unhurriedly, "Good. Now tell me about these two new disciples." Nie Xiuyuan stepped forward, "Master, I brought in Han Ping. He may seem average, in both cultivation and appearance, but he’s an expert at escaping and is very decisive—perfectly fitting your standards for disciples." Ye Beixuan added, "He’s nicknamed Han Paopao, and he’s quite famous among the wandering cultivators." As a reincarnator, Ye Beixuan naturally knew Han Paopao’s reputation. This guy would become famous two hundred years later, after killing a prodigy from the Dayan Holy Land in a single battle. The Dayan Holy Land pursued him for a hundred years but never caught him, earning him the name King of Escape. In Ye Beixuan’s previous life, Han Ping was already one of the top wandering cultivators, just a step away from Half-Saint. If Han Ping became their master’s disciple, his achievements would surely surpass his previous life. Chu Feng looked at Qin Qin. "Anything to add?" Qin Qin replied, "He’s fine in every respect—except for his karma. Since joining a small sect at twelve, every sect he’s joined has been wiped out." Chu Feng laughed. "That’s nothing. What could a mere Dao Foundation cultivator possibly provoke that could destroy our Wendao Academy?" Qin Qin nodded. "You’re right, Master. In the Xuanzhou Continent, there’s no power that could wipe out Wendao Academy." "Since Han Ping is fine, tell me about this girl Cai Yi." With that, Chu Feng shifted the conversation to Cai Yi... ==================================================================================== Get access to 20 chapters in advance and enjoy 2 daily updates by supporting the series.
