Chapter Thirty-One: Water Sky Feather

  "It doesn't matter!"

  Misty Heaven wiped away the saliva on her face with a lukewarm expression and said to Flame Emperor Long.

  "You're not bad, kid! Come with me!"

  Shuǐ Tiān Yǔ walked past Chǔ Yán's side, and a soft voice echoed in Chǔ Yán's ear.

  Yan Tian Long sympathetically glanced at Chu Yan and followed Shui Tian Yu as they left.

  Someone followed behind and patted Chu Yan's shoulder, saying: "I've always wanted to say that I am the disciple of Shifu."

  Chu Yan's face was deathly pale, and he was on the verge of tears. Who would have thought that the grand leader of the Yu Hua Sect would be a handsome young man who looked to be around his own age, yet was so foolish?

  "Did I just scold our sect's leader?"

  "Yes!"

  "Am I still calling him brother?"

  "Yes!"

  "Did I also pat his elderly shoulder?"

  "Yes, you're the most ruthless one, spitting a mouthful of saliva right on the sect leader's face! The sect leader is notoriously cleanliness-obsessed! You're asking for trouble!"

  “……”

  That disciple lowered his voice and left after finishing speaking, Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, the joy of climbing to the top just now suddenly disappeared, what's the joy of suffering, damn it, this is suffering from suffering!

  "Chuyan, aren't you going to hurry up and catch up?"

  "Yes, Master Flame!"

  Whether it's good fortune or bad luck, misfortune can't be avoided; Chu Yan made up his mind and walked forward.

  Pan Tian Peak, Pan Tian Temple.

  In the grand hall, Suītiān Yǔ sat in the main seat, and Yántiān Lóng sat beside him.

  Chu Yan stood below with a nervous heart, unsure if the cleanliness-obsessed sect leader would explode in anger over what had just happened.

  A calm yet extremely majestic voice entered Chu Yan's ears:

  "Chuyan, you're pretty good!"

  Chu Yan's heart skipped a beat. This was the second time Shui Tianyu had said this sentence, and it was absolutely sarcasm. Yes, sarcasm. He was in trouble now.

  "Master Patriarch, what happened earlier was just a misunderstanding on my part. But honestly, who can blame me? Who has ever seen such a young and handsome Sect Master?"

  Chu Yan's flattery was so over-the-top that Shui Tianyu couldn't help but crack a smile: "You little brat, stop sucking up to me. I'm asking you seriously, didn't you really have any cultivation at all three months ago?"

  "What the master says is absolutely right!"

  "So tell me about what you've been through for the past three months!"

  After hearing Shui Tianyu's words, Chu Yan told him about the experiences of the past three months, nine out of ten of which were true, but he concealed two things: that Xiao Ding and Da Hei Ji could accelerate his cultivation speed.

  "As you said, that black lightning not only enhanced your physical strength but also changed your innate talent? But even so, your cultivation speed is impossible to be so fast. Three months from Qi Refining stage one layer to eight layers, such a speed, even with the innate talent of Tian Ling Gen, it's still unimaginable."

  Shui Tianyu heard Chu Yan's words and slightly frowned.

  "I report to the Master, according to my speculation, this should be related to my previous cultivation. Three years ago, before my spiritual root was abolished, I was at the 8th layer of Qi Refining stage, and now that I'm re-cultivating, every layer's technique is already familiar and effortless, feeling not a single bottleneck."

  After hearing Chu Yan's words, Shui Tianyu nodded slightly. Having been transformed by the black lightning and re-cultivated, his cultivation was restored. Although it was still a bit strenuous, this speed was reasonable.

  "Chu Yan, this time you've benefited from misfortune, it's an opportunity given by heaven, don't waste it."

  "Remember this well, my disciples."

  Shui Tianyu looked at Chu Yan's resolute face and a faint hint of guilt appeared on his face.

  "Chu Yan, remember that on the path of cultivation, it's survival of the fittest. Strength is everything. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

  "I understand."

  As he looked at Shui Tianyu's gaze, Chu Yan felt a pang of sorrow in his heart. He knew that what Shui Tianyu was referring to was the time when Qi Tianlie had dealt with the remaining forces of the Chu family on Fei Long Peak.

  "Chu Yan, for these three years, the sect has never asked about your affairs, and it's also because of this reason. However, it seems that the experiences of these three years have thoroughly tempered you. Before you grew up, no one within the sect could harm you. But remember, all grudges must be resolved by yourself in the end!"

  "Thank you, Master!"

  Chu Yan's heart was greatly settled, and in this way, he would no longer fear Qi Tianlie making a move against him within the sect.

  "Moreover, being low-key is a good thing. That hidden treasure of yours probably can't be seen through even by those in the foundation-building stage! This item is called the Lingyu Jade, and unless it's someone from the legendary Yuanying Realm, even a Golden Dan cultivator wouldn't be able to see through your cultivation. There's also a storage space inside, consider this as compensation for the past three years!"

  Shui Tianyu said as he threw a jade pendant that was entirely sky blue in color at Chu Yan.

  "Thank you, Master!"

  Chu Yan was overjoyed in his heart. Before he grew up, it was inevitable that he would encounter some powerful Golden Elixir cultivators. With this treasure, many troubles could be avoided.

  "You've climbed Tianyan Peak for seven days, consider it punishment for your previous disrespect towards Zitian Lie! You can go down now!"

  "Thank you, Master! I bid farewell!"

  Chu Yan had a very good impression of this Patriarch who had just scolded him, and as he walked to the entrance of Panshan Hall, a very serious voice sounded in his ear:

  "If you reach the foundation period before the age of thirty, you will have a place in the competition for the position of sect leader!"

  Chu Yan's body suddenly shook violently... He puffed out his chest and strode out with large steps...
