Chapter 15998 Meeting
In an antique-style room, an old man sat behind his desk, slowly writing. His writing was very slow, each stroke and line deliberate, as if the pen was imbued with immense force.

Just then, a very soft knock came at the door. The old man gently put down his pen and said, "Come in."

A servant pushed open the door and entered, bowing to the old man and saying, "Master, Young Master Wu requests an audience."

"Let him in," the old man said, then sat down in a chair. The servant responded and left the room. Wu Changling then entered, bowed to the old man, and said, "Greetings, Master."

The old man was none other than Zhu Qingshan, the head of the Qingyang Sect's Transmission Hall. Zhu Qingshan looked at Wu Changling and waved his hand, saying, "No need for formalities, Changling, is there something you need from me?"

Wu Changling immediately said, "Yes, Master. There is something I need to report to you today. These are some things I have written down. Please take a look." After saying that, Wu Changling took out a few sheets of paper and handed them to Zhu Qingshan.

Zhu Qingshan took the paper and carefully read its contents. As he read, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Then he looked at Wu Changling and said, "Is everything you wrote here true?"

Wu Changling quickly replied, "Yes, Master, it's all true."

Zhu Qingshan said, "It is indeed very abnormal for an ordinary person to be able to cultivate from the power level to the royal palace level in such a short period of time. It seems that he does have a secret. However, he is already a core disciple. It would be inappropriate to arrest him directly for questioning."

Wu Changling said in a deep voice, "Master, if this person really has any secrets, then if we can find out, it will be a good thing for the entire sect. So I think we should make him hand over his secrets. This would be of great benefit to the sect."

Zhu Qingshan thought for a moment, then said, "How about this, you go and call him over, and tell him I need to see him and that I want him to come and meet me."

Wu Changling responded, then bowed to Zhu Qingshan before turning and leaving. After Wu Changling left, Zhu Qingshan said, "Someone come here." Immediately, a servant entered from outside, bowed to Zhu Qingshan, and Zhu Qingshan nodded, then said, "Go and send someone to investigate whether there is any grudge between Wu Changling and this Wu Lingfeng. Go." As he spoke, Zhu Qingshan handed a piece of paper to the servant, who took the paper, acknowledged it, and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, Wu Changling had already arrived outside Wu Lingfeng's cave. Upon reaching the cave, he immediately asked, "Is Wu Lingfeng there?"

Wu Lingfeng was studying the Qingfeng Sword Scripture in his cave when he heard the voice. He was startled and immediately came out of his room. When he reached the entrance of his cave, he saw Wu Changling. Upon seeing Wu Changling, Wu Lingfeng was taken aback and then frowned, asking, "Who are you?" He recognized Wu Changling immediately, as Wu Changling looked quite similar to Wu Changfeng. However, he had to pretend not to know him and wanted to see what Wu Changling was up to.

Wu Changling glanced at Wu Lingfeng, then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Wu Lingfeng and said, "Is it Junior Brother Wu Lingfeng in person? I am here on the orders of my master and the head of the Transmission Hall to invite you to see him."

Wu Lingfeng felt a chill run down his spine. He had a conflict with Wu Changling, and now Wu Changling had suddenly come to see him and even brought up his master. There must be something wrong here.

However, the Transmission Hall was a powerful institution, and the Hall Master held a very high position. Although he was a core disciple, he couldn't afford to disrespect the Transmission Hall. Thinking of this, he immediately asked, "When does the Hall Master wish to see me?"

Wu Changling said in a deep voice, "Now, Junior Brother Wu, please." Upon hearing this, Wu Lingfeng nodded and said, "Alright, please." After saying that, he followed Wu Changling and flew straight towards the Transmission Hall. Before long, the two arrived at the Transmission Hall and soon came to the outside of Zhu Qingshan's study.

Outside Zhu Qingshan's study, two servants stood there. As soon as they saw Wu Changling arrive, they clasped their hands in greeting. Wu Changling said in a deep voice, "Please inform him that Wu Changling has brought Wu Lingfeng."

The servant responded and then entered the room. Inside, Zhu Qingshan was holding a piece of paper. He was looking at the paper carefully, his expression not very good. The paper didn't contain anything special; it simply described the grudges between Wu Lingfeng and the Wu brothers.

At this moment, a servant entered, cupped his fists to Zhu Qingshan, and said, "Master, Young Master Wu is outside requesting an audience with a man named Wu Lingfeng." Zhu Qingshan put down the paper and then said, "Let them in." The servant responded and went out to fetch them. A moment later, Wu Changling brought Wu Lingfeng into the room. As soon as they saw Zhu Qingshan, they both bowed to him and said, "Greetings, Master." "Greetings, Hall Master."

Zhu Qingshan nodded and said, "No need for formalities, please sit." The two responded and sat down on the chairs on either side. Zhu Qingshan glanced at Wu Lingfeng and then said, "Nephew Wu, I've heard about your situation. I heard that you were originally a manager in the outer sect, but in less than a year, you've risen from the Scholar level to the Royal Palace level. Such a cultivation speed is rare throughout history. That's why I had Changling invite you here. I wanted to ask you if you have any special cultivation methods. As you know, our Transmission Hall not only teaches cultivation techniques to sect disciples, but also has the responsibility to improve sect techniques. So if you have any special cultivation methods, Nephew Wu, you can report them directly to the sect. Don't worry, the sect's rewards in this regard are very generous, and you will definitely not be treated unfairly."

Wu Lingfeng quickly bowed to Zhu Qingshan and said, "Replying to the Hall Master, I don't have any special cultivation methods. I just practice normally. If there really are any changes, there are indeed a little, but..." He paused here and glanced at Wu Changling.

Zhu Qingshan could tell what Wu Lingfeng was thinking just by looking at him, so he immediately said, "Changling, you can go out now."

Wu Changling quickly responded, then stood up, bowed to Zhu Qingshan, then bowed to Wu Lingfeng, and then left Zhu Qingshan's study. The moment he closed the study door, his face immediately darkened, but he quickly returned to normal and then stepped aside.

At this moment, Zhu Qingshan looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "Nephew Wu, just say what you have to say."

Wu Lingfeng immediately replied, "To answer Hall Master's question, it's not really a secret. When I was in charge of the outer sect, I had a conflict with Senior Brother Wu's younger brother. When I was registering Senior Brother Wu's brother's information, his brother got angry and said that it was my fault that I didn't recognize him. The outer sect elder at the time didn't want to cause trouble, so he kicked me out of the outer sect management office. The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. Later, I discovered that when I was angry, my cultivation speed would be extremely fast. I don't know why, but the angrier I was, the faster my cultivation speed became. Especially during the two battles with the Flame Pirate Gang, I was extremely angry, and that's why my cultivation speed became even faster. That's why my strength has reached this level."

Wu Lingfeng's words were half true and half false. He did indeed speed up his cultivation because he was angry, but he did not mention the God of Wrath, nor did he say that he had angered others. His cultivation speed was also very fast.

Upon hearing Wu Lingfeng's words, Zhu Qingshan was taken aback for a moment, then his face darkened. He looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "Junior Nephew Wu, you jest. How could such a thing happen?"

Wu Lingfeng quickly replied, "Master, it is indeed so. This disciple would not dare to hide it from you."

Zhu Qingshan looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "How do you intend to prove it?"

Wu Lingfeng immediately said, "When I saw Senior Brother Wu before, I was very angry, and my cultivation speed will be much faster. But when I am no longer angry, my cultivation speed will slow down again. I can test it now."

Zhu Qingshan looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "Alright, then give it a try. Is it okay here? I guarantee no one will bother you."

Wu Lingfeng immediately replied, "Sure, of course." He then sat down, closed his eyes, and began cultivating. He had indeed been angry when he saw Wu Changling, and Wu Changling had also been angry when he was driven out. Zhu Qingshan had also become angry when he heard Wu Lingfeng say that his cultivation speed increased when he was angry. Therefore, Wu Lingfeng was certain that his cultivation speed was currently very fast. However, after this cultivation session, his cultivation speed would not be as fast when he cultivated again.

Zhu Qingshan used his divine sense to observe Wu Lingfeng's changes. As soon as Wu Lingfeng started cultivating, Zhu Qingshan was taken aback because he noticed that the concentration of spiritual energy around Wu Lingfeng's body seemed to have increased dramatically. This surprised him greatly. Conversely, the concentration of spiritual energy in other parts of the room had decreased. This meant that Wu Lingfeng had drawn all the spiritual energy from other parts of the room to his side, which was why the concentration of spiritual energy around him had increased. Moreover, this spiritual energy seemed to be very compatible with his own. As soon as he started cultivating, that spiritual energy directly entered his body, which made his cultivation speed extremely fast.

After a while, Wu Lingfeng finished his cultivation. Zhu Qingshan noticed that Wu Lingfeng's strength had indeed improved significantly. Wu Lingfeng then opened his eyes and looked at Zhu Qingshan, saying, "Hall Master, my mood has calmed down now. I'm cultivating now, so my speed won't be as fast."

Zhu Qingshan nodded and said, "Then try cultivating again." Wu Lingfeng responded and began cultivating again. This time, Zhu Qingshan clearly felt that the concentration of spiritual energy around Wu Lingfeng had decreased significantly, and his cultivation speed was not as fast as before.

Zhu Qingshan was perfectly clear that Wu Lingfeng hadn't played any tricks. Wu Lingfeng didn't carry any magical artifacts, nor had he taken any pills. So what he said was all true. When he got angry, his cultivation speed increased, and when he wasn't angry, his cultivation speed decreased.
