“The Holy Light Clan is not qualified?”
Upon hearing this, not only was Chu Feng shocked, but even Yu Ting was astonished.
Although she was a disciple of the Wolong Martial Sect, she was well aware that the ruler of the Holy Light Galaxy was the Holy Light Clan.
As the ruling force, they were undoubtedly the strongest power.
So even she did not know that the Wolong Martial Sect had become so powerful that it no longer gave face to the Holy Light Clan.
“Master, does this mean the strength of the Wolong Martial Sect is now so great that it does not fear the Holy Light Clan?” Chu Feng asked.
Chu Feng felt pressure. Now that the Wolong Martial Sect was unfavorable to Ziling, it was equivalent to being Chu Feng’s enemy.
If the Wolong Martial Sect was truly this powerful, it was definitely bad news for Chu Feng.
“Whether the Wolong Martial Sect fears the Holy Light Clan, this old man does not know,” said Ox-Nosed Old Daoist.
“But the strength of the Wolong Martial Sect, from ancient times to the present, can be described in four words.”
After Ox-Nosed Old Daoist said this, Chu Feng hurriedly asked, “Which four words?”
“Unfathomably deep.”
Ox-Nosed Old Daoist replied.
“Unfathomably deep?!”
These four words describing the Wolong Martial Sect made Chu Feng even more uneasy.
After all, compared to a confirmed strength, the danger of something unfathomably deep was greater.
But even so, Chu Feng would not give up.
“Master, can you take me to see the formation to enter the Wolong Martial Sect?” Chu Feng asked.
“Chu Feng, your master will not deceive you.”
“Unless you reach the Fourth Rank Supreme, you won’t even have the qualification to enter the formation.”
“And even with the cultivation of a Fourth Rank Supreme, it only grants the qualification to enter, but it does not mean you can enter safely.”
“As your master, I do not agree with you going.”
“Even with your many abilities, in my opinion, you need at least Seventh Rank Supreme cultivation to challenge that formation,” said Ox-Nosed Old Daoist.
“Master, do you know any methods to quickly improve cultivation?” Chu Feng asked.
“If I knew a method to quickly improve cultivation, I would not still be unable to take revenge,” said Ox-Nosed Old Daoist with a wry smile.
Seeing Ox-Nosed Old Daoist like this, Chu Feng felt helpless.
He knew he was too impatient.
In the path of martial cultivation, where were there shortcuts?
If there truly were shortcuts, his father would not have let him train alone.
“Chu Feng, Yu Ting, you two don’t need to worry too much.”
“I have met the Sect Master of the Wolong Martial Sect.”
“Based on my understanding of her, she has excellent character and is someone who greatly values talent.”
“And that girl named Ziling, being her personal disciple, shows how much the Sect Master values her.”
“In my opinion, she is just teaching Ziling a lesson, not truly intending to take her life.”
“Perhaps when you enter the Wolong Martial Sect again, Ziling will have been released and become a prominent figure in the sect.”
“It’s even possible she might allow Ziling to leave the Wolong Martial Sect to find you,” said Ox-Nosed Old Daoist.
“Senior, are you truly certain our Sect Master would be so reasonable?”
“Could she really release Ziling?” Yu Ting asked.
She asked because the Sect Master she knew was a cold, ruthless person.
She was someone all the elders and disciples of the Wolong Martial Sect genuinely feared.
The words “reasonable” and “understanding” seemed to have never applied to their Sect Master.
“Little girl, though you are a disciple of the Wolong Martial Sect, your understanding of your Sect Master may not be as deep as mine.”
“Trust me, my judgment is not wrong. Your Sect Master is definitely someone who values talent.”
“Unless Ziling has done something truly unforgivable, she will not take her life.”
“And since she is still alive, it means things are not that serious,” said Ox-Nosed Old Daoist.
Hearing this, Yu Ting felt there was some truth to it.
Although in her impression, the Sect Master was cold, she agreed that the Sect Master valued talent.
Indeed, their Sect Master greatly valued talent.
Yu Ting also knew Ziling would not be in mortal danger in the short term.
But being imprisoned in that place, what Ziling was enduring was what worried her and pained her heart.
Looking at Chu Feng’s anxious expression, Yu Ting felt a pang of guilt.
After all, if she hadn’t come to find Chu Feng, he wouldn’t be under such pressure.
Initially, she hadn’t cared about Chu Feng’s life or death, only about Ziling’s safety.
But after spending time together, her view of Chu Feng had changed.
Though their time together was short, Yu Ting understood why Ziling loved Chu Feng so deeply.
Chu Feng indeed had remarkable qualities, not just in talent but also in a unique charisma that others lacked.
Unknowingly, she had begun to genuinely consider Chu Feng a friend.
“Chu Feng, I think your master is right.”
“Rescuing Ziling is not something that can be rushed.”
“I’ve told you, although Ziling is imprisoned in the Abandoned Land, she is only confined there. The Sect Master has never said she would take Ziling’s life.”
“And the Sect Master does favor Ziling greatly, far more than other disciples.”
“So if you want to save Ziling, don’t be too impatient, or you might harm yourself. If that happens, Ziling would be heartbroken,” Yu Ting said, comforting Chu Feng.
“Chu Feng, I know with your personality, you won’t be at ease until you see Ziling safe with your own eyes.”
“But you’re a smart child. You know this cannot be rushed. Staying steady and improving your cultivation step by step is the best approach.”
“Moreover, Ziling is now the personal disciple of the Wolong Martial Sect’s Sect Master.”
“Based on my understanding of her, unless you are an outstanding enough junior, she would not entrust Ziling to you.”
“Do you understand what I mean?” asked Ox-Nosed Old Daoist.
“I understand.”
“Don’t worry about me. I will definitely stand before Ziling in the best possible state,” said Chu Feng.
On the journey afterward, Chu Feng no longer dwelled on these matters.
His plan was clear: improve his cultivation as quickly as possible.
But he would not wait until Seventh Rank Supreme to challenge the formation, as Ox-Nosed Old Daoist suggested.
Since Fourth Rank Supreme granted qualification, Chu Feng would challenge it at that level.
He didn’t care about the danger. He only cared about Ziling.
On the way to the Upper Realm of Reincarnation, Chu Feng also asked Ox-Nosed Old Daoist about his past.
Ox-Nosed Old Daoist did not conceal anything.
The details were as Chu Feng had heard.
Ox-Nosed Old Daoist’s defeat back then was indeed due to being poisoned.
And to this day, he had not found the person who poisoned him.
