Chapter 95: You don’t even know how to cut someone off—did a dog eat your brain?

Chapter 95: You don’t even know how to cut someone off—did a dog eat your brain? “Practice your fists a hundred times, and the meaning will naturally emerge...” Late at night, Elder Bing sat cross-legged with her eyes closed, silently repeating that phrase. Several hours later, she suddenly opened her eyes, a look of enlightenment appearing on her face. The corners of her lips lifted slightly as she muttered to herself, “So that’s it... I finally understand how to confidently comprehend the essence of the Taiji Sword.” Elder Bing instinctively glanced at the wall and said, “Didn’t expect Chu Feng to actually have some real ability. No wonder he could train outstanding disciples like Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian. Tomorrow, I’ll begin cultivating the Taiji Sword technique.” With that, she closed her eyes again and resumed her cultivation. At dawn, Elder Bing first used her spiritual sense to scan the surroundings. After locating an isolated spot, she flew over. She pulled out her treasured sword from her storage ring and began mentally reviewing the Taiji Sword technique that Chu Feng had previously demonstrated. Then, she slowly began to move her sword in fluid motions. Chu Feng, completely unaware of any of this, glanced at the sky outside, stuffed the romance novel under his pillow, and fell asleep. One month later. The familiar phenomena appeared above the Miscellaneous Dao Institute once again, and familiar high-level figures gathered to watch. Chu Feng and Cao Youqian were seated leisurely around a tea table, calmly brewing tea. Feeling the presence of several powerful auras approaching from all directions, Cao Youqian cautiously asked, “Master, why did you let Junior Sister Qin break through to the True Fate Realm here in the Miscellaneous Dao Institute? Now others will try to snatch her from you again.” Chu Feng took a sip of tea and said casually, “That girl Qin’er has an old enemy from a holy land. If she broke through outside, it would be easy for others to interfere. Breaking through within Wendao Academy is actually safer.” Hearing this, Cao Youqian was stunned. Just as he was about to ask more, a familiar voice echoed down from the sky. “Little friend Chu, don’t tell me you tricked this disciple away from another holy land?” As the voice fell, the Xuanhuo Pill King and the Dean of Wendao Academy appeared before them. Chu Feng and Cao Youqian immediately stood up and saluted. “Chu Feng greets the two seniors.” “Disciple greets Patriarch and Dean.” The Dean smiled and waved his hand. “No need for formalities.” “Dean, Senior Xuanhuo, please take a seat.” Chu Feng invited them to sit at the tea table and personally poured tea for them. The Dean didn’t speak immediately after sitting down. Instead, he smiled and called out toward the sky, “You’re all already here, so come out openly. We’re all from the same Wendao Academy—what’s the point of sneaking around?” As soon as he spoke, the chiefs of the various institutes all appeared one after another. Elder Bing, who had also been secretly observing, stepped forward. Seeing this, Chu Feng turned to Cao Youqian and said, “Da Qian, set up another tea table and prepare tea for the seniors.” “Got it!” Cao Youqian quickly got to work without hesitation. Though the various chiefs didn’t say much, none objected either. Once the tea table was ready, they all sat down. Elder Bing glanced around and chose to stand beside the Free Sword King. The Xuanhuo Pill King took a sip of tea and asked, “Xiao Feng, you still haven’t answered my earlier question.” Chu Feng replied, “I was too busy attending to everyone and nearly forgot. Qin’er was previously staying at the Qufeng Pavilion, that kind of pleasure district, just to avoid pursuit by the Dayan Holy Land.” The moment he said that, expressions of confusion appeared on the faces of the high-level guests. The Xuanhuo Pill King asked again, “Don’t tell me this little girl is a discarded disciple of the Dayan Holy Land?” “Of course not.” Chu Feng explained, “Qin’er was born with dual pupils, and when the Dayan Holy Land discovered it, they wanted to seize them. So...” After hearing Qin Qin’s background, the expressions of the various elders present shifted. Some were envious, others frustrated. The head of the Magic Arts Institute laughed and teased, “Chu brat, your luck really is beyond ordinary. You even managed to meet a top genius just by visiting Qufeng Pavilion.” The other bigwigs said nothing, merely sipping their tea in silence. Luck was something innate—aside from envy, there wasn’t much else they could say. Chu Feng smiled and said, “This is all thanks to Senior Thunderfire King and the disciples of your Magic Arts Institute. If I hadn’t gone to evaluate that disciple, I never would’ve encountered Qin’er.” The Thunderfire King was briefly stunned upon hearing that. “You brat, taking advantage and still pretending to be modest—aren’t you afraid I’ll go all out to steal away your precious disciple?” The Xuanhuo Pill King added cheerfully, “Chu brat, come on, tell us all how you accepted her as your disciple.” Looking at the Thunderfire King, that man rumored to command heavenly thunder with one hand and earth fire with the other, Chu Feng joked, “Senior Thunderfire, am I really allowed to say it?” The Thunderfire King replied irritably, “If you want to talk, then talk. I’m not the petty type—it’s not like it’s a big deal.” “Well then, here’s how it happened...” Chu Feng calmly recounted the events leading to him taking Qin Qin as his disciple. “Haha...” “How interesting. Really interesting.” “Old Thunderfire, so your Magic Arts Institute is even into cutting people off halfway?” The gathered bigwigs all laughed heartily—everyone except the Thunderfire King, whose face was full of exasperation. He hadn’t expected that the group under him couldn’t even cut in properly. What, had dogs eaten their brains? Elder Bing and Cao Youqian both stifled their laughter. The others could laugh freely, but the two of them didn’t dare. Fortunately, just then, a powerful aura burst out from Qin Qin, and her entire body became bathed in divine radiance. Every gaze in the courtyard turned to her. “A Divine Body! Another Divine Body!” The Xuanhuo Pill King was the first to exclaim. The Thunderfire King’s frustration instantly vanished. “Chu brat, how do you do it?” The Free Sword King maintained a calm exterior, but inside, waves of shock surged through his heart. ‘Could what Elder Bing said earlier... really be true?’ Behind him, Elder Bing’s mouth had already formed an O shape. ‘A Grandmaster! Chu Feng must have inherited the Grandmaster legacy from the Miscellaneous Dao Institute. Otherwise, how could he keep training one Divine Body genius after another?’ At this moment, Chu Feng wore a calm expression, but a familiar voice echoed in his mind. “[Ding, your senior disciple has broken through to the True Fate Realm and awakened the Divine Body: Void Physique. Rewarding the host with ten years of cultivation. Void Physique—Perfection Stage!]” Another ten years of cultivation—how satisfying. If either Da Qian or Xiao Chen broke through next, he’d gain another five hundred years of cultivation. The Dean of Wendao Academy smiled and said, “Alright, everyone, stop grilling Xiao Feng. Each of your institutes has its own inheritance—why are you all so obsessed with the Miscellaneous Dao Institute’s legacy? If you have time for that, why not just ask Qin Qin whether she’s willing to join your institute instead?” Hearing this, Chu Feng gave the Dean a small smile to express his gratitude. Only then did the others remember why they had come in the first place, and their eyes once again turned to Qin Qin... ==================================================================================== Get access to 20 chapters in advance and enjoy 2 daily updates by supporting the series.
