Chapter 709: Fu Qiu’s Disciple 2

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

You should know, before he had even arrived at this small courtyard.

His master from the Luo Family had admonished him time and again, telling him.

This matter must not be leaked at any cost.

Such behavior was probably because his master wanted to make a good impression in front of the current Sect Master of the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect.

To get the Sect Master to hold his master from the Luo Family in a slightly higher esteem.

Zong Yu found nothing objectionable about this.

...

However, what he hadn’t expected was…

He had only just arrived not long ago when the respected Sect Master had already guessed as much.

This left Zong Yu temporarily frozen, uncertain about what to do.

“Alright,”

Seeing the expressions on Zong Yu’s face, Luo Changfeng could guess his thoughts.

He thought to himself, how could that old man Fu Qiu possess the skill.

To effectively manage such a large Sub-sect Power.

“Fu Qiu that old fellow sending you to me was probably to make me take notice of you,”

“And incidentally to give you some pointers in Alchemy,”

“How about this, tell me where you do not understand?”

“Or perhaps, in what area do you wish to break through?”

Underneath the Stone Pavilion.

Luo Changfeng turned his head.

While he silently observed the cup of tea on the stone table that was still emitting wisps of steam, he asked in a low voice.

“This…”

“Can I really do that?”

Zong Yu was somewhat startled.

He had not expected the Sect Master before him to be so forthright.

Zong Yu had thought that since his master had sent him to attend to the Sect Master.

He would just stay by the Sect Master’s side for the time being.

But as it turned out…

This matter also brought such an unexpected delight.

“Speak frankly.”

Luo Changfeng picked up the steaming cup of tea from the stone table and drained the cup in one gulp before continuing, “In the way of Alchemy, I do indeed possess a not inconsiderable understanding and insight; teaching you youngsters should not pose a big problem, but whether you can learn it in this period is something I can’t guarantee…”

…

Therefore,

In such a circumstance,

Zong Yu directly voiced the numerous issues he had encountered in the way of Alchemy over the years.

Yes, this massive Da Feng Dynasty’s Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect.

Had been managed by Zong Yu over these years.

Zong Yu had also made no small contribution to the development of this Sub-sect to its current state.

In terms of management, Zong Yu’s talent was truly outstanding.

But, being outstanding in management.

Did not mean that Zong Yu’s talent in Alchemy was inferior.

You should know, in this world.

Some people are always blessed by the heavens.

They possess extraordinary talent in many respects.

And Zong Yu was like one of those favored individuals.

Able to perfectly allocate his time.

He could not only manage this vast Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect,

but also, during his spare time,

Continually improve his insight in the way of Alchemy.

After all, no matter what,

This sub-sect of the Da Feng Dynasty Wan Dan Sect was ultimately a power famous for its Alchemy.

In such a place, your abilities in other capacities can be poor,

but your ability and talent in Alchemy must not be inferior.

Otherwise, you might not even be able to join the doors of the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect,

let alone anything else.

…

Imparting knowledge, instructing apprentices, and resolving doubts.

The present Luo Changfeng and Zong Yu.

Were roughly in such a relationship.

Even as time gradually passed,

As Luo Changfeng’s voice, carried by the breeze, scattered into the distance,

More and more people gathered near this courtyard.

However, most of those who could come to this small courtyard,

were mostly the high-ranking members of the Wan Dan Sect.

These high-ranking members had strong cultivation and immense insight in the way of Alchemy.

But clearly, their strength and depth of insight,

were only in comparison to the ordinary disciples of the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect.

If compared to Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family from Qingshi City and the current Sect Master of the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect,

The cultivation level, strength, and achievements in alchemy of those people…

these had become somewhat insignificant.

“The people around here seem to be increasing…”

Underneath the Stone Pavilion,

Luo Changfeng took advantage of his rest time.

He picked up a cup of hot tea and sipped it while silently observing the nearby high-ranking members of the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect and the capable alchemists, all of whom had a restrained look on their faces.

The corner of his eye couldn’t help twitching slightly.

Of course, apart from those high-ranking sub-sect members and outstanding alchemists,

Fu Qiu, the current Deputy Sect Master of this sub-sect,

was naturally also sitting on the side, listening with utmost attentiveness.

Alchemists exchanged knowledge among themselves,

This was quite common within the main branch of the sect.

However, under normal circumstances,

it was those whose understanding and comprehension of alchemy were similar who exchanged knowledge with each other.

The current situation, which was more like a teacher instructing students,

was extremely rare.

It wasn’t that it couldn’t happen,

mainly because, under normal circumstances,

those who had a profound understanding of the alchemical arts had no obligation to impart their knowledge with utmost dedication.

Unless it was to their direct disciples,

otherwise, even within the sub-sect, there was generally no gratuitous teaching and imparting of knowledge.

Reality was always cruel and ice-cold.

By joining the sect, the sect provides you with a pathway for improvement and advancement,

this is already extremely good.

If you ask for more than that, you would be overly greedy.

…

After finishing the tea in his hand,

the teaching about the path of alchemy continued.

The crowd nearby was also listening with utmost seriousness and solemnity.

And such a situation continued until late into the night before ending.

“Perhaps, earlier I should have set up a formation with a silencing function?”

“Otherwise, why go to such lengths?”

Inside the small courtyard, under the Stone Pavilion,

Luo Changfeng was now slightly bowing his head, thinking to himself.

And by his side, Fu Qiu, the old fellow who was the Deputy Sect Master of the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect,

seemed to be in a rather good mood.

What could be seen was his old face spreading into a beaming smile.

However, if one thought carefully about it,

it was normal for Fu Qiu to be happy.

After a series of actions by Luo Changfeng, the overall alchemy level within the sub-sect was bound to rise rapidly in a short period.

This was indeed a good thing.

“It’s about time,”

“I think you all should rest,”

After a while, Luo Changfeng suddenly raised his head and said calmly to the group of master-disciple duos beside him.

However, to Luo Changfeng’s surprise,

the master-disciple duo did not turn to leave but instead excitedly told him aloud that they were not tired.

Hearing this, Luo Changfeng almost couldn’t hold back.

Damn it, if you’re not tired, I am.

Talking for so long is very draining on the brain cells, okay?

Can’t the two of you have some self-awareness

and leave on your own?

“I think, you are already tired,”

“Don’t you think so?”

Luo Changfeng looked at Zong Yu beside him and Fu Qiu, the current Deputy Sect Master of the sub-sect.

His expression gradually became colder.

“Not tired, not tired, I…”

Before Zong Yu could finish,

Fu Qiu, the old man, sensed something was not quite right.

So, he quickly grabbed his own direct disciple and turned to walk out of the courtyard,

all the while laughing and saying, “I didn’t really feel it just now, but suddenly I do feel quite tired, haha…”

…

Soon after,

Zong Yu was pulled out of the small courtyard by his master.

“Master, what are you doing?”

“I’m really not tired?”

“I even feel very spirited…”

Zong Yu said, his excited eyes slightly red.
