“Fine, say what you will.”

“But remember, don’t casually mention this man in front of Elder Xue Qiyang.” “Otherwise, you’ll definitely encounter a ton of bad luck, understand?” Tang Jie sternly warned the surrounding fellow apprentices.

“Elder Xue Qiyang? I remember now. He was the top disciple of the previous Sect Master and was regarded, beyond the Sect Master himself, as the most likely to become a new Sect Leader.

He’s only 120 years old, but his cultivation has already reached the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He’s recognized as our Immortal Mist Sect’s most promising cultivator for Core Formation.”

Someone suddenly remembered Elder Xue Qiyang’s details.

“Not only that, but in the past, he and Sect Master Leng Yuexi were considered the golden boy and jade girl of the Immortal Mist Sect. Although Sect Master Leng Yuexi’s talent was frighteningly great, she achieved perfect Foundation Establishment at the age of 80, far surpassing Elder Xue Qiyang.¹‘ “Even the previous Sect Master planned to match him with Sect Master Leng Yuexi, but unfortunately she refused.”

“But even so, Elder Xue Qiyang didn’t give up and has been pursuing her relentlessly.”

“But who would have thought that this time when Sect Master Leng Yuexi returned…”

“Not only did she succeed in Core Formation, she even brought back a Dao Partner.”

“Now, Elder Xue Qiyang will surely go mad.”

A female cultivator of the Immortal Mist Sect finally understood, she now could really understand why Tang Jie had warned them like this.

This matter was absolutely taboo for Elder Xue Qiyang.

If they carelessly brought up Zhou Sui in front of Elder Xue Qiyang, they would definitely face dire consequences.

“It seems you guys understand.”

“Even though he may have grievances in front of the Sect Master, Elder Xue Qiyang wouldn’t dare to express them.”

“But to deal with us Qi Cultivation disciples, wouldn’t it just take him a minute?”

“So, you have to be careful and don’t get targeted by Elder Xue Qiyang.” Tang Jie said sternly.

“We certainly understand that, we will never let the cat out of the bag.” “But, speaking of which, Elder Xue Qiyang has been pursuing the Sect Master for many years without success.”

“He even invested a lot of effort and money.”

“In the end, a loose cultivator from outside got all the benefits. He must be spitting blood with anger.”

Someone commented gleefully.

At this moment, on a certain peak of the Immortal Mist Sect.

In fact, there are hundreds of peaks within the sect. Basically, once cultivators advance to the Foundation Establishment realm, they are eligible to choose a peak as their cultivation site.

The same applied to Xue Qiyang who is a middle-stage elder at the Foundation Establishment realm. Being a direct disciple of the previous Sect Master and also the Master of the Reward and Punishment Hall, he had chosen one of the best peaks where nature’s spiritual energy was extremely dense.

“Elder Xue, what do you think of the man brought back by the Sect Master?” Speaking was Luo Dingtian, the master of the Refining Equipment Hall of the Immortal Mist Sect. He’s a late-stage cultivator at the Foundation Establishment realm, aged 190 years old, and is considered one of the oldest among the Foundation Establishment cultivators.

He was in charge of forging all the magic and spiritual artifacts of the Immortal Mist Sect and held significant power.

He was also Xue Qiyang’s longstanding rival.

“Hmph, what’s there to think, he’s just an ordinary loose cultivator.”

“A mere lower grade spiritual root, uncertain if he can even succeed in Foundation Establishment, he’s not even worth mentioning.”

Xue Qiyang scoffed.

The bastard definitely hit him where it hurt the most, didn’t everyone know that Zhou Sui’s name was his taboo?

The Qi Cultivation disciples all kept their mouths shut, none daring to bring up this matter in front of him.

But Luo Dingtian, being the Head of the Refining Equipment Hall and a late-stage cultivator at Foundation Establishment realm, didn’t care at all about it.

Instead, he deliberately brought up the issue in front of him, clearly intending to anger him.

“Is that so? It is said he’s a second stage Pill Master. With the Sect Master’s help and a top-quality Foundation Pill guaranteed to be within reach, he will be certain to reach Foundation Establishment.”

“By then, he would have a longevity of 250 years and can stay together with the Sect Master for over two hundred more years.”

“What a blessed couple, truly enviable.”

Luo Dingtian chuckled lightly, continuing to rub salt into Xue Qiyang’s wounds.

“Luo Dingtian, you must be freaking tired of living.”

“Picking a fight with me?!”

Upon hearing this, Xue Qiyang could no longer contain himself, completely breaking down and starting to curse out loud.

A potent murderous aura filled the air around him, bursting forth towards Luo Dingtian.

Despite being only in the mid-stage of foundation establishment, he was a skilled combatant, his fighting power by no means inferior to those in the late stage.

Which is why he was able to become the Master of the Reward and Punishment Hall.

“Why the fuss?”

“Didn’t you just say you didn’t give a damn?”

Luo Dingtian laughed heartily, clearly delighted by the sight of his sworn enemy breaking down.

After all, this guy was known for his deep thoughts and profound strategies. He wouldn’t make such a face unless he was truly struck where it hurts.

“Shut up.”

“This is the Dao Companion personally chosen by the Sect Master, and neither of us has any say in it.”

“Whether we like it or not, he is the Sect Master’s Dao Companion.”

“I, Xue Qiyang, have nothing more to say.”

Xue Qiyang clenched his fists and glared at Luo Dingtian.

It seemed that if Luo Dingtian dared to provoke him any further, he would go against the sect’s rules and take matters into his own hands.

“Don’t you want to get rid of this brat?”

Looking at Xue Qiyang with a smirk, Luo Dingtian seemed to be trying to see through his intentions.

“I have no desires.”

“All I want now is to pursue the path to immortality and succeed in core formation.”

“Beyond that, I have no other thoughts.”

Xue Qiyang responded indifferently as he watched Luo Dingtian.

He was fully aware that Luo Dingtian was trying to sow discord between him and Zhou Sui.

But he wasn’t some simpleton who would easily fall for such tactics.

The main reason he had pursued Leng Yuexi in the past, besides having some feelings for her, was that if he married the Sect Master’s daughter, he would inevitably become the next Sect Master of the Immortal Mist Sect.

Then he would be able to control all the resources of the Immortal Mist Sect and help himself achieve immortality.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he pursued, Leng Yuexi remained indifferent.

She seemed to see right through his intentions.

Now, she had become a Gold Core Master herself, her cultivation and lifespan having greatly increased.

She was no longer someone he could compare to.

Moreover, she had brought a Dao Companion back to the sect, which confirmed that he had no chance with her anymore.

So he had long given up on that idea.

Many people believed that he would become enemies with Zhou Sui, but what good would come from making an enemy of the Sect Master’s Dao Companion?

Even if he actually killed Zhou Sui, he would only anger Leng Yuexi.

That would be a lose-lose situation.

Pissing off a Golden Core Master, he wouldn’t have enough lives to pay for that. Right now, his greatest wish was to successfully form his core. If he could become a Gold Core Master, he would have power and wealth in the world, and his status would be extraordinary, even if he did not become the Sect Master.

He could decide the world’s affairs with a single word.

So, how could he be such a fool to fall for Luo Dingtian’s instigations and jeopardize his own cultivation?

“As expected of Hall Master Xue.”

Upon hearing these words, Luo Dingtian sighed. He actually wanted to provoke him further, but it seemed that Xue Qiyang wouldn’t be easily tricked.

It could only be said that Xue Qiyang’s thoughts were indeed extraordinary..
