Urban Invincible Overlord
Chapter 1453 - 1450: Half a Year
"Fei’er, come with me."
Back at Tian Nan Peak, Yang Fei originally intended to return to the cave residence where Li Xuanyu lived, but was stopped by Wan Daorong.
Yang Fei nodded obediently.
Wan Daorong then said to Shang Heng on the side: "Shang Heng, go to Piaomiao Stream and inform those young friends from Earth that the grievances have been resolved and Yang Fei is fine."
Shang Heng quickly responded, "Yes, Master." He then turned and headed towards Piaomiao Stream where Li Xuanyu lived.
Yang Fei followed Wan Daorong into the main hall of the summit of Tianzhu Peak, directly to where Wan Daorong usually cultivated and resided.
Wan Daorong had no partner and lived alone. Compared to where Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi lived, his place was much simpler, yet even so, it was still an earthly paradise compared to the mundane world.
"Fei’er, I know you have anger in your heart, but remember, since you chose to endure today and not pursue it in front of me, continue to endure until you have absolute strength to redefine this matter. Understood?" Wan Daorong looked at Yang Fei and said.
Yang Fei’s heart chilled; if Wan Daorong could see through his mind, then surely the couple at Tianzhu Peak could also guess it.
Even Wang Xingpeng must have understood that the resentment in his heart would not easily dissipate.
The other party simply believed he was too weak to have any chance of revenge.
"Thank you for the reminder, Master. I understand," Yang Fei said.
Wan Daorong glanced at him and sighed, "Any world is like this, the weak are prey to the strong. Without enough strength and background, absolute fairness and justice are unattainable. Even what is defined as fairness and justice is determined by the strong."
Yang Fei nodded, "I understand, the cultivation world is like this, and so is the mundane world."
Wan Daorong nodded contentedly, "It’s good that you can see through this. I brought you here alone to let others know that you are my closed-door disciple, highly favored by me, so before returning to Earth, stay with me for a while."
Yang Fei felt a warmth in his heart, then noticed the implication in Wan Daorong’s words and couldn’t help but ask, "Master hopes I return to Earth?"
Wan Daorong said, "I know the temperament of that couple at Tianzhu Peak. Their precious son is narrow-minded and vindictive. He must have transmitted some arrogant and provocative words to you when you left, right?"
Yang Fei didn’t expect Wan Daorong to guess even this but did not hide it and nodded, "Yes."
Wan Daorong said, "Since you chose to endure then, continue to endure. As Wang Xingpeng dares to be so arrogant, he will surely find you again. With his temperament, staying at Tian Nan Peak for long isn’t good for you. Instead, the environment on Earth is more suitable for your growth. Cherish those cultivation resources he gave you, grow quickly, and only your own strength is fundamental."
Yang Fei gratefully said, "Yes, I will definitely follow Master’s teachings."
Wan Daorong nodded contentedly, "Feel free to ask me about anything you don’t understand about cultivation next. Stay here with me during this period."
Yang Fei wasn’t reserved and immediately asked about some obscure principles in the "Tao Longevity Scripture" that he hadn’t been able to comprehend over the years.
Wan Daorong, worthy of being a renowned cultivation guide in the Southern Domain and a peak Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator, was especially adept at understanding the Tao.
Yang Fei’s various questions were answered almost immediately and perfectly by Wan Daorong, who also imparted his insights in detail to Yang Fei. Often, a few essential words would enlighten Yang Fei, and sometimes a casual remark would bring sudden clarity.
As Yang Fei continued to question, Wan Daorong also realized the cultivation technique Yang Fei practiced was extremely profound and exquisite. While helping Yang Fei, Wan Daorong also gained new insights into the Tao.
After using genetic liquid medicine, he felt his foundation improving, and with these new understandings of the Tao, Wan Daorong felt as if a door to a new world had opened for him, making him feel he could perhaps attempt to cross a lifelong barrier.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, six months had passed.
Everyone at Tian Nan Peak had long known that the master had kept the new junior brother by his side during this period, carefully teaching him.
The news had spread across the other branches of Shang Qing Sect three months ago that Wan Daorong had accepted a super genius as his closed-door disciple, personally guiding him to be his heir.
Other branches even began rumors that the position of Tian Nan Peak Master, originally meant for Shang Heng, might be given to this closed-door disciple Yang Fei.
Recently, whenever Shang Heng managed Tian Nan Peak’s affairs or interacted with other brothers and friends from other branches, he would be asked about this matter. Some who supported him even privately urged him to meet the master and ask if there was an intention to appoint a new successor.
Shang Heng always smiled and calmed these voices, saying the master’s arrangements didn’t require everyone’s concern, displaying a very carefree and relaxed attitude.
Piaomiao Stream, where Tong Yunshu had been living for half a year.
Lu Qingyue still took care of Li Xuanyu there, and by extension, took care of Tong Yunshu attentively.
Since learning of Yang Fei’s safe return from Tianzhu Peak, Tong Yunshu and the Earth cultivators stopped worrying.
Especially after knowing that Yang Fei was constantly guided by Wan Daorong, Tong Yunshu felt even more at ease. She was also striving to reach Core Formation, and after half a year of diligent cultivation, she felt confident but wanted to wait for Yang Fei to return and guard her breakthrough.
Half a month passed like this, and one afternoon, after finishing cultivation, Tong Yunshu felt increasingly confident about succeeding in Core Formation and became a bit impatient.
She thought for a moment and walked out of her room to find Lu Qingyue, intending to ask her to send a message to Yang Fei.
Just as she stepped out, she suddenly frowned, feeling a powerful divine sense scanning over her without restraint.
The sensation was akin to someone blatantly scrutinizing her with aggressive eyes.
"Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect there to be such a stunning beauty hidden here." A frivolous, playful voice followed. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Tong Yunshu’s eyes held a hint of coldness as she looked towards the source of the voice.
Inside the room, Lu Qingyue was also startled by this voice. Recognizing the owner, she hurriedly rushed out, not yet seeing the person, she cupped her hands and loudly reminded, "Brother Wang, this Taoist Tong is Taoist Brother Yang Fei’s partner, please mind your words."
"Ha, this Junior Brother Yang Fei really is quite lucky."
A contemptuous cold laugh echoed, followed by a strong aura descending. Wang Xingpeng arrived with a smile, ignoring Lu Qingyue’s reminder, his eyes fixated indecently on Tong Yunshu’s graceful figure.
