Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jiang Yiming looked at his eldest disciple with a smile, “Alright, there’s no need for such a big ceremony. It’s fine as long as I know your heart.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Master, and I’ve been missing you a lot,” Gu Lingfei nodded with a smile and no longer insisted on kneeling, “Besides, isn’t it only proper for me to kneel and kowtow to Master a few times?”
Jiang Yiming shook his head and said, “It’s alright. You’re my disciple, why do we need these empty courtesies? Though I must say, you have been out for a few months and you seem to have changed quite a bit. Looks like you’ve gained quite a lot from your trip.”
Hearing this, Gu Lingfei also smiled and nodded.
Jiang Yiming didn’t say these words for no reason. Just now, he had carefully sized up his disciple.
If he didn’t look, he wouldn’t know, but when he did, he was shocked.
To think Gu Lingfei had reached the early-stage of the Core Formation Realm!
In Jiang Yiming’s memories, when Gu Lingfei left, he had only reached perfection in the Qi Meditation Realm.
It had only been three months, but he had already advanced to the early-stage of the Core Formation Realm. Presumably, Gu Lingfei must have encountered some great opportunities on his trip.
Otherwise, even if Gu Lingfei was truly a monstrous genius, he wouldn’t have improved so quickly.
As for what opportunities his eldest disciple had encountered, Jiang Yiming didn’t think too much about it.
With his guidance, the strength of his three disciples would increase rapidly in the future.
Even if there were opportunities, what kind of opportunity could compare to the system?
“Lingfei, you’ve suffered a lot in the outside world on your adventures, haven’t you? Look at you now. You’re much darker than before, and you’ve lost a lot of weight. I almost couldn’t recognize you,” Jiang Yiming said with a smile.
Gu Lingfei hurriedly shook his head and said seriously, “Master, it wasn’t hard on me. It’s Master who has suffered. Junior brother and junior sister have already told me about the Huoyun Sect. I have been unfilial. I wasn’t able to be by Master’s side...”
Jiang Yiming waved his hand and interrupted him, “Those things are all in the past. You don’t have to blame yourself. Let’s talk about something happy. Why don’t you tell me some interesting stories about your travels?”
Gu Lingfei was stunned for a moment before he suddenly remembered something, “Oh my, me and my poor memory. Master, I forgot to introduce you to a new friend of mine.”
Gu Lingfei quickly took off.
When he returned, a woman was following behind him.
The woman looked young and only seemed slightly older than Huang Chaoyu.
She was wearing a white long dress, and she looked very elegant.
“Master, this is a young miss I met when I was traveling. Miss Yue, this is my Master, who is also the sect leader of the Lingyun Sect,” Gu Lingfei quickly introduced the two of them.

Jiang Yiming was stunned.
He didn’t expect his eldest disciple to be able to bring a girl back from his travels.
Sensing Jiang Yiming’s scrutinizing gaze, the girl was immediately displeased.
Unwillingly, she said to Jiang Yiming, “I’m Yue Shuangbai.”
Jiang Yiming nodded.
Through his observation, he discovered that Yue Shuangbai was a Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse!
He was immediately shocked and hurriedly asked, “I’m Jiang Yiming, the sect leader of the Lingyun Sect. May I ask which sect you’re from? And how did you get to know this disciple of mine?”
Yue Shuangbai was silent for a moment before she opened her mouth to speak, “I’m an unaffiliated cultivator. I don’t belong to any sect. It’s just a coincidence that I got to know Gu Lingfei. He saved me by chance, so the two of us became friends.”
Jiang Yiming nodded, but he didn’t take her answer to heart.
She seemed to have answered his two questions, but in fact, she hadn’t answered anything at all.
Besides, Jiang Yiming didn’t believe that she really had no family or faction.
If she really was such a young unaffiliated cultivator, then what was the point of having sects?
Jiang Yiming was thinking about how to get her to reveal her background when Gu Lingfei spoke up from the side.
He had long felt that the two of them didn’t click, so he quickly told his Master what had happened.
“Master, it was indeed a coincidence. When I left the mountains that day, I had the intention of traveling. I also wanted to invite some sects to help the Lingyun Sect. However, the hearts of people have changed. I suffered many jests and difficulties from them, and in a fit of anger, I left. After that, I didn’t expect to accidentally enter a residence and obtain a great opportunity there. I even met Miss Yue through fate. Now I’m at the early-stage of the Core Formation Realm thanks to the opportunity I obtained in that residence.”
...
Gu Lingfei told everything in detail.
He didn’t even miss out on the date he obtained the opportunity.
Hearing the date, Jiang Yiming was even more shocked.
Because the date Gu Lingfei had mentioned was the day Jiang Yiming had transmigrated.
Among the Celestial King’s Privileges, there was one that increased the luck of the disciples in the sect.
Initially, Jiang Yiming felt that luck was somewhat illusory.
But from the looks of it now, this privilege wasn’t a fluke.
It was most likely thanks to this Celestial King’s Privilege that his eldest disciple could obtain such an opportunity.
As for Ye Yunfan, it was probably also thanks to the Celestial King’s Privilege that he was able to escape from the encirclement of so many Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators that day.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yiming’s mood instantly became much better.
Things like fate were extremely mysterious. But if it was on their side, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that it was heaven-defying!
Unlike Jiang Yiming’s happiness and excitement, Yue Shuangbai’s expression was indifferent.
She looked at Gu Lingfei, who was narrating his travels and shook her head secretly.
She had already ridiculed him dozens of times in her heart, alas, he was too naive after all.
Even if Jiang Yiming was his master, Gu Lingfei shouldn’t have told him everything.
One had to know that money could move people’s hearts. What if his Master could not help but attack Gu Lingfei after hearing about the opportunity?
How was it that Gu Lingfei didn’t even understand the simple matter of “one must be wary of others”? He was truly uneducable!
She looked at Jiang Yiming again, her eyes full of vigilance.
She didn’t know why, but she was instinctively defensive against Jiang Yiming. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
On the way, she had heard Gu Lingfei introduce the situation of the Lingyun Sect, thus she had always thought that Gu Lingfei’s Master was only a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
She never expected that she couldn’t see through Jiang Yiming’s strength at all.
Jiang Yiming’s indifferent aura also gave her a vague sense of pressure.
She didn’t believe that this was something a Foundation Establishment cultivator could have.
Gu Lingfei was still describing in detail what happened along the way, and Jiang Yiming and the other two disciples were listening attentively.
At this moment, Jiang Yiming suddenly raised his head and looked at the clouds in the sky.
A thunderous roar suddenly came from the sky above the sect, “Where are the scoundrels of the Lingyun Sect? Come out and see me!”
