Chapter 270 - 269: They’re All Traitors



The impact wave brought by the meteor haphazardly dispersed the deadly miasma, flattened the trees, tossed around beasts, and rolled giant rocks, effectively leveling the Deadly Miasma Region.

Witnessing the disaster brought by the meteor, Wu Lian sucked in a breath, overcome by tardy fear.

She was fortunate to have run far. If she had only run for five minutes, she feared she would have been swept up by the windstorm, facing an uncertain fate.

“What’s your name?” Only then did Wu Lian realize that she was huddled with Yu Feng, and promptly pushed him away, examining this young man.

He had saved her life and she owed him a debt of gratitude.

“Yu Feng.”

“What reward do you want?” Wu Lian felt that Yu Feng must have some ulterior motive for informing her about the meteor.

What could Yu Feng want? He merely wanted Wu Lian to survive.

“I heard you call me senior sister at first, then call me Wu Lian?”

“…My Cultivation Technique told me.” Yu Feng didn’t know how to explain.

Wu Lian half-believed and half-doubted Yu Feng’s Cultivation Technique. She had not heard of such a technique, yet if it weren’t for the technique, how could the meteor incident be explained?

“So you’re saying, calling me Senior Sister Wu Lian is fortuitous for you? In that case, join my sect and become my real junior brother.”

This…” Yu Feng didn’t expect things to turn in this direction. He tried his best to avoid joining any faction.

“Join, as long as I’m here, nothing will go wrong.” The invisible Jiang Li said.

With the support of his senior, Yu Feng was taken back to the sect by Wu Lian.

“Master, I’ve returned.”

“My good disciple, you finally came back. Your master was really worried about you. I saw that a meteor fell where you went, and I thought something had happened to you!” Wu Lian’s master, known as Daoist Tong Chen, was a specialist in talismans and a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Daoist Tong Chen spoke softly: “I heard that two cultivators at the Body Integration Stage were fighting. It all started because there’s a small sect called Blood Sea Sect in the southeast, and the Sect Master and eldest disciple were both poisoned and died.”

“The Sect Master was a descendant at the Body Integration Stage who didn’t realize his potential. Although he didn’t reach his potential, he was still a descendant of someone in the Body Integration Stage. Those at the Body Integration Stage didn’t want to lose face.”

“After seeing the strange circumstances of their descendant’s death, they thought that the Sky Poison Sect was responsible for it and they wanted to hold them accountable.”

“However, the Sky Poison Sect also had someone at the Body Integration Stage who thought that the others were making a fuss without reason, that’s when the two sides…”

“The Sky Poison Sect denied the accusations, causing the person behind the Blood Sea Sect to sever ties with the Sky Poison Sect. This matter escalated and ended up in a battle in the universe, the falling meteors are the aftermath of their battle.”

The invisible Jiang Li rubbed his temples, realizing it was all because of them.

“I almost ran into trouble, thanks to…” Wu Lian remembered what just happened, her heart filled with fear. It was fortunate she believed Yu Feng’s words.

Wu Lian recounted Yu Feng’s story, and after hearing it, Daoist Tong Chen was amazed. He too had never heard of such a Cultivation Technique.

The Sky Mechanism Tower practiced this type of Cultivation Technique, and Jiang Li thought it odd that in this world there are no similar techniques. He felt that the level of cultivation in the Ancient World was not high.

The progression of time in the Ancient World is roughly four times slower than in the Nine States World. In Nine States, nine thousand years had passed, but in the Ancient World, thirty-six thousand years had passed.

Over the course of thirty-six thousand years, along with people hiding techniques and scriptures, too much had been lost. The Immortal Realm became a legend in the Ancient World.

The Cultivation Technique practiced by the Sky Mechanism Tower to reach immortality disappeared as time passed.

“Is that so?” Daoist Tong Chen was intrigued, and said to Yu Feng, “If you can predict the future, why don’t you guess whether I will take you as a disciple or not?”

Daoist Tong Chen had already decided. No matter what Yu Feng said, he would give the opposite answer.

Yu Feng reverently said, “You will not accept me as a disciple.”

“Ha ha, you guessed wrong, I will take you as a disciple…” Daoist Tong Chen got halfway through his sentence and realized something was off. However, he had already spoken and couldn’t take it back.

“Master, I am honored to be your disciple.” Yu Feng skilfully bowed.

From his prior experience, he knew Daoist Tong Chen was relatively good among those he had apprenticed under. At least, the Daoist wouldn’t rip out his heart and liver to make a puppet, feed him to beasts if he failed to accomplish a task, or force him to ingest precious jewels and minerals before possessing him.

Yu Feng’s standards for a master were not high; a master who let him live was a good master.

A disciple suddenly appeared, and Daoist Tong Chen wasn’t mentally prepared. He tossed a book titled “Introduction to Talismans” to Yu Feng to test his aptitude, and asked him to study it himself.

“I’ll check your progress in a few days.”

“Yes.”

Yu Feng respectfully bowed and left.

“What do you think?” After Yu Feng left, Daoist Tong Chen asked Wu Lian.

After some thought, Wu Lian said, “He may not always be truthful, but he seems like a good person.”

Daoist Tong Chen sighed wistfully, “As long as he’s a good person, that’s enough. There aren’t many good people in the world anymore.”

“I only know a bit about the way of talismans.” Yu Feng felt ashamed. He had once studied under Daoist Tong Chen and learned about talismans, but sadly, he didn’t even learn the basics.

“That’s simple, I’ll get a specialist for you.” Jiang Li took out a Remote Communication Talisman and called Bai Hongtu.

“Speak, who are you looking for this time?” Bai Hongtu asked casually.

“You. This child wants to study the way of talismans. You should give him a lesson.”

“That’s my specialty.” Bai Hongtu rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach.

Half a year later, Yu Feng already knew that the laid-back cultivator before him was a legendary Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivator, an invincible existence in the world.

After the lesson, Jiang Li asked, “When and how did your master and senior sister get into trouble?”

Yu Feng answered seriously: “My master suffered from an internal injury in his early years. It could not be cured, and his abilities were weaker than other Nascent Soul cultivators. However, he had some achievements in talismans, which was enough for self-protection.”

Yu Feng originally wanted to say that Daoist Tong Chen was very proficient in talismans, but he didn’t feel comfortable saying it in front of Bai Hongtu.

“My third senior brother wanted to inherit our master’s legacy, but unfortunately, our master only valued my eldest senior sister. This caused the third senior brother to develop resentment, and he colluded with outsiders, telling them about our master’s weakness.”

“Our master was killed cruelly. The disciples scattered. Senior sister Wu Lian chose death rather than running away. She was killed.”

“So, solving the problem with your third senior brother would be enough?” Bai Hongtu felt it was very simple.

Yu Feng shook his head: “Even if the third senior brother does not make a move, there’s also the fourth senior brother.”

“So, after settling your fourth senior brother, would that be enough?”

“There’s still the fifth senior brother.”

“…So, after settling your fifth senior brother, would that be enough? Is there a sixth senior brother?” Bai Hongtu didn’t think it was simple anymore.

“No, I am the sixth.”

“Your second senior brother doesn’t have any schemes?”

“The second senior brother betrayed the sect a long time ago. I haven’t seen him since I joined the sect.”

“Everyone is a traitor.” Bai Hongtu didn’t know what to say.

“I once asked the third, fourth, and fifth senior brothers, did our master not treat them well? The third senior brother said it wasn’t enough, our master favored senior sister Wu Lian,”

“The fourth senior brother said our master was kind and was bound to get into trouble sooner or later. Since that’s inevitable, he might as well die by his hand first, and enjoy the benefits himself.”

“The fifth senior brother said our master was a good person, and good people should be bullied.”

Thinking about his master being murdered, his senior sister dying in battle, and him crying tears of blood while fiercely questioning his three senior brothers, only to receive such indifferent answers, Yu Feng felt cold.

Bai Hongtu ridiculed, “Did your master recruit disciples based on the traitor standard?”

Jiang Li shook his head, “People of this world are like this.”
