Chapter 500: Chapter 262: Coming out of the Pass_1
Upon returning to the Liu Yun Sect, Lin Yi emerged from the secluded cave mansion where he’d been in seclusion. At this point, he had been in retreat for over twenty years. While he had spent even more time cultivating in the secret realm, the difference now was that he was the master of the Yun Yi Lineage, no longer a disciple of the Golden Sword Lineage.
Since Lin Yi had established the Yun Yi Lineage, he had only recruited a small number of entry-level disciples and instructed them for about a year. He wondered how many of them still remained.
After all, over twenty years without seeing a Golden Core Real Person and being educated by the only Foundation Building cultivator Xu Yu Rou, some might have given up and turned to other peaks.
Generally, official disciples of all the Golden Core Lineages were not allowed to change their alignment unless under special circumstances.
Yet Lin Yi didn’t accept these people as official disciples of the Yun Yi Lineage; he only granted them the tokens of registered disciples.
In many peaks, there would be processes to test disciples, including Golden Sword Peak. However, he had already passed Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng’s test and directly became an official disciple of the Golden Sword Lineage.
As for the registered disciples who have not officially joined a Golden Core Lineage, the restrictions aren’t as stringent. With the agreement of the Foundation Building cultivator in charge of everyday affairs, they could move to another Golden Core Lineage, as long as the latter agreed to accept them.
Despite having this right, cultivators who had joined any Golden Core Lineage without becoming official disciples wouldn’t shift allegiance lightly as it would leave an impression of being fickle-minded.
Before his retreat, Lin Yi took Xu Yu Rou as his direct disciple and instructed her that if anyone wanted to leave, they should be allowed to go. After all, he did not know how long his retreat would be and he didn’t want to hinder their cultivation.
If there were any willing to stay, he would undoubtedly instruct them wholeheartedly, granting them more insight.
However, he didn’t give Xu Yu Rou the right to recruit disciples. This young girl had always lived within the Liu Yun Sect’s Inner Door, spending her years in secluded cultivation. She had little understanding of the cunning of the world and could not see a person’s heart.
Suddenly, as Lin Yi was about to step out from the gate of Yun Yi Palace, his strong perceptual ability, courtesy of his Nascent Soul Realm, allowed him to hear the conversation coming from a remote place on Yun Yi Peak.
“Brother Li Wen Jie, you’ve been a part of Yun Yi Lineage for more than twenty years now and you’re still a registered disciple. Your cultivation is improving so slowly. Why not join the Hua Yang Lineage? We have Foundation Building cultivators teaching Dharma every month, occasionally, Hua Yang Zhen Ren also teaches Dharma,” one voice suggested.
“Moreover, our Foundation Establishment Elder has promised to provide you with abundant resources, which is much more comfortable than staying in Yun Yi Lineage. It’s been more than twenty or thirty years with only one Foundation Building female cultivator guiding you. She has Lower-grade Spiritual Roots and is probably not clear about cultivation herself.”
“As for your Yun Yi Zen Ren, ever since he entered the Liu Yun Sect Inner Door, he’s been in seclusion for many years. No one knows when he will exit his retreat, you should find a way out early, or you’ll be a registered disciple for life,” the voice continued.
Hearing the disciple’s words, Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile. Hua Yang Zhen Ren was really good at digging under the wall. He was planning to dig out all the disciples. After Lin Yi’s seclusion, only Xu Yu Rou would be left.
As for this disciple called Li Wen Jie, he remembered him. With Medium-grade Spiritual Roots, a gentle disposition and often bullied during his time at the Disciple Registration Hall. His character was somewhat timid, but he also had a tenacious side.
When he was included for teaching in Yun Yi Lineage, Li Wen Jie was extremely attentive and even made notes so as not to forget.
At this moment, a determined voice came over, “I apologize, Brother Wei, since I have joined Yun Yi Lineage, I should see it to the end. Even if I am just a registered disciple, I am willing. Master Yun Yi educated me, I will not leave. Please do not come again, Brother.”
“Tsk, a medium-grade spiritual root in Qi Refining middle stage still planning to wait for a price to sell. Want a Foundation Building cultivator to come and invite you? If it wasn’t for Elder’s orders, I wouldn’t even look at you on the road.”
“Brother, anyone who wants to ask me to leave Yun Yi Lineage, I will not agree, even if Hua Yang Zhen Ren personally comes,” the disciple replied.
“Ha ha ha, even if Hua Yang Zhen Ren personally comes, you don’t look in the mirror. Only Yun Yi Zen Ren looks upon the likes of you…”
Just then, Lin Yi flashed, and in the next moment he was standing next to the two of them, smiling and saying, “You’re right, I indeed value Li Wen Jie.”
The Wei surnamed disciple’s face changed, and he quickly turned his head. When he saw Lin Yi’s young face, he let out a sigh of relief, “Who do you think you are, daring to eavesdrop on us…”
“Disciple greets Master Yun Yi,” Li Wen Jie, seeing Lin Yi, excitedly greeted him.
“You, you, you are Yun Yi Zen Ren, Great Master, please forgive this disciple’s earlier disrespect,” the Wei surname disciple in the late Qi Refinement stage heard this, promptly kneeled and kowtowed to Lin Yi.

In any sect, Golden Core Real People held great status and power, never mind killing a Qi Refinement stage disciple, they could freely kill a Foundation Building cultivator without any retribution.
Lin Yi nodded slightly towards Li Wen Jie, then looked at the Wei surname disciple from Hua Yang Peak, “You come to dig out my disciples, but you don’t even recognize me, the master of Yun Yi.”
The Wei surname disciple kowtowed again and started to flatter, “This disciple has long heard about the great Master’s reputation, but the Great Master has been in seclusion and this disciple has never had the chance see the master’s true face. Seeing you today, truly extraordinary…Please spare this disciple’s life.”
