The meeting hall.

"Please sit down! Have a few sips of spiritual tea to cool down."

The Master of Lost Traces personally brewed tea and poured it for his two junior sisters.

"This is a rare and precious snow mountain tea. Senior brother usually wouldn't take it out."

Master Gufeng glared at Master Hanyu and slowly sipped his tea.

As for Shen Xuan, he is not qualified to drink the sect leader's spiritual tea.

They could only stand there obediently, like children who had done something wrong, waiting for their fate.

A slight smile appeared on Han Yu Zhenren's face.

Clearly, she had the upper hand in this attack.

"I see that Shen Xuan's ancestral bloodline is extraordinary, and he is still awakening."

"His talent and aptitude are worthy of being a seed for Core Formation."

"However, etiquette cannot be disregarded. Shen Xuan is the personal disciple of Junior Sister Gu Feng, and this matter is beyond question."

The Lost Immortal looked at the Cold Jade Immortal with a solemn expression.

"Junior Sister Hanyu, do you understand what I mean?"

Master Hanyu nodded gently.

"I understand what Senior Brother Zhang means."

"As long as you know."

The mysterious master suddenly changed the subject.

"Junior Sister Gufeng, what are you thinking?"

Master Gufeng said frankly, "Several years ago, I asked Shen Xuan if Hanyu wanted to take him as a disciple. He said he was unwilling to change his sect."

"Oh, Shen Xuan."

"The disciple is here."

"Tell me what you think."

Shen Xuan remained silent for a few moments.

"Before I became a disciple of my master, I was a rogue cultivator."

“I have a good friend who, after going through many hardships, finally married the woman he loved and became her Daoist partner.”

"Several years later, this friend met another female cultivator who surpassed his original Daoist partner in every way, including family background, appearance, talent, temperament, and cultivation. She also intended to form a bond with him and get married."

He came to me asking what to do.

Shen Xuan slowly said, "I did not answer him, but instead severed ties with him, cut off all contact, and never had any further dealings with him."

"In my view, a person cannot stand without integrity."

Shen Xuan didn't continue.

The meaning was expressed very clearly.

His friends will encounter many female cultivators who are better than his Daoist partners.

Shen Xuan will also encounter many high-level cultivators who are stronger than his master.

He is unwilling to associate with people who lack integrity.

I am even less willing to be an ungrateful person.

The bond between master and disciple runs very deep.

If even one can betray and abandon their master.

What can't we do!
What's the difference between them and demonic cultivators?

"Shen Xuan, I understand what you mean. You may leave now."

"Yes, Master Uncle."

After Shen Xuan left.

The Mysterious Master sighed.

"Shen Xuan is indeed a seed for Core Formation."

"There is a glimmer of hope for achieving the Golden Elixir."

Upon hearing this, Master Gufeng's expression became unnatural.

Master Hanyu was not wrong.

As a Wood Mage, she was unable to teach Shen Xuan his cultivation.

As Shen Xuan's cultivation level increases, he will need his master's guidance more and more.

The law is not taught lightly.

People in the world say that false teachings fill countless books, but true teachings can be conveyed in a single sentence.

For cultivators, direction is more important than effort.

Often, people go astray or encounter difficulties during their spiritual practice.

A single word of guidance from the master can bring sudden enlightenment.

If Shen Xuan doesn't change his allegiance, he will have to rely on himself in his cultivation journey.

The help that Master Gufeng provided to him was limited.

“Junior Sister Gufeng, I remember that your eldest disciple, Yun Chixin, has completed the Foundation Establishment stage and returned to the sect after his training, right?”

"Yes, Senior Brother Zhang."

The Mysterious Master took out a jade box containing a nine-petaled, jet-black flower.

"This is?"

"A spiritual object that forms the core, the Nine Netherworld Soul Refining Flower."

"The Mysterious Master said quietly."

Even he felt a pang of heartache at having to give up such a Core Formation treasure for the sake of the sect's overall interests.

This Nine Nether Soul Refining Flower grows deep within the Nine Netherworlds, a place permeated with Netherworld energy. It takes a thousand years for it to mature and bloom, nourished by the Netherworld energy.

It is one of the best spiritual objects for cultivators of the Wood element to form their core, as it can train and enhance the power of the soul.

"Yun Chixin is about to attempt to condense his core. In my opinion, if he is well prepared, the chances of success are not small."

"Junior Sister Gufeng, I suggest you focus on helping Yun Chixin condense her core, what do you think?"

Master Gufeng remained silent.

The matter is obvious.

From the perspective of the Lost Immortal and the sect, Shen Xuan should switch allegiance and join the sect of Cold Jade Immortal.

Ice Mage is a high-end combatant of the sect, with a strong deterrent effect on the outside world.

As the sect leader, Master Mizong naturally did not want Hanyu Peak to lose its lineage.

"How about this? Shen Xuan will remain Junior Sister Gu Feng's personal disciple. At the same time, he will also become Junior Sister Han Yu's personal disciple."

"Junior sister, please obey Senior Brother Zhang."

Since Master Mizong had put it this way, Master Gufeng had no choice but to agree.

If she refuses repeatedly.

This is not a good thing for either her or Shen Xuan.

"But what about Shen Xuan..."

Shen Xuan had just expressed his stance when the sect demanded that he switch sides, which Master Gufeng found difficult to discuss with him.

"It's alright, I'll talk to him about this myself."

"That's good. Junior sister, I'll take my leave now."

Master Gufeng glanced at Master Hanyu.

This time, Master Hanyu looked solemn and clasped his hands in a respectful greeting.

Master Gufeng nodded slightly, and after receiving Master Hanyu's full respect, Shi Ranran walked out of the council hall.

"Alright! Junior Sister Hanyu, I've finally resolved your matter!"

There was a hint of weariness in the voice of the mysterious master.

Being the sect leader is so tiring.

I really want to quit my job and go live a peaceful life of spiritual practice.

However, the sect's five Golden Core cultivators.

Lingjian is single-minded in practicing swordsmanship, Yinxiang is lazy, Tianlei has a fiery temper, and Tianfeng is stubborn.

No one but him is qualified to be the sect leader.

Lingxiao Zhenren would be a suitable candidate.

However, he lacks experience, has a weak foundation, and has no family background or future prospects.

After condensing the Golden Core, one can only become the leader of the Thirteen Outer Peaks.

Taking over the sect leadership requires hundreds of years of accumulation; it's no easy feat!

"Han Yu thanks you, Senior Brother Sect Master."

It was rare for Master Hanyu to show a smile.

She profited from this.

I've gotten a personal disciple for free. Not only is he exceptionally talented, but he's also a shrewd businessman.

A true multi-talented individual.

"My Nine Nether Soul Refining Flower..."

"How could Senior Brother Zhang care about someone who merely possesses a Nine Nether Soul Refining Flower!"

"Master Hanyu said decisively."

Don't tell me she doesn't have any Core Formation artifacts of the same quality.

Even if I had it, I would never take it out.

The Lost Immortal is the sect leader, and it is his duty to discover and cultivate potential Core Formation cultivators, mediate disputes, and balance the strength of the various peaks.

"Alright! In that case, you, Han Yufeng, will have someone to rely on! Don't come to me to complain again in the future."

The Mysterious Master shook his head and said.

……

They left the council hall.

Master Hanyu returned to Hanyu Peak.

Liu Bingyu, his only direct disciple, greeted him at the entrance.

"Master, someone said that you and Uncle-Master Gu Feng got into a fight!"

Liu Bingyu observed her master's expression and asked softly.

Master Hanyu scoffed, "Nonsense! Does Gufeng dare to fight me?"

"So, is it true that you're trying to steal Master Gu Feng's disciple?"

"What robbery nonsense! Where did you hear that rubbish from!"

Master Hanyu revealed a smile.

“Shen Xuan is extremely talented in ice magic. I cannot bear to see such a gem go to waste and be held back by Gufeng, so I suggested to my senior brother, the sect leader, that Shen Xuan transfer to my sect.”

"what!"

Liu Bingyu's mouth was open, unable to close.

Isn't this just stealing Master Gu Feng's disciple?
The master spoke with such righteous indignation.

"What did Master Uncle say?"

"What can I say? I'm considering the sect's interests, so naturally he strongly supports me."

"Did Uncle-Master Gu Feng agree?"

"She has no choice but to agree! Both for her own sake and for the public good, she must agree!"

"I am not without pride," said Master Hanyu.

This is a conspiracy.

The Lone Peak Master could not crack it.

"Congratulations, Master, on gaining such a fine disciple!"

"Master, should I call him senior brother or junior brother?"

Master Hanyu thought for a moment.

"He belongs to the Lone Peak lineage, and it seems they are ranked by age."

"Then I shall respectfully address him as my senior brother!"

Liu Bingyu's joy was palpable.

Well, from now on, the inheritance of Hanyu Peak will be Senior Brother Shen's responsibility.

I no longer need to feel sorry for myself about my spiritual practice.

For ice magic cultivators, condensing an inner core is extremely difficult.

It's not that she doesn't try.

It's truly impossible; I can't meet Master's expectations.

From now on, Senior Brother Shen will bear all the responsibilities for these matters.

Master Hanyu already knew Liu Bingyu's thoughts.

Seeing her so happy, I couldn't help but sigh softly in my heart.

Even among the seeded cultivators of a sect, less than 20% successfully condense their inner core.

Someone with Liu Bingyu's talent and temperament.

The most likely explanation is that it's just a fake pill.

Although it can also enhance strength and prolong life.

However, compared to a true cultivator, a fake cultivator has severed their path to enlightenment, their strength is significantly weaker, and their status is incomparable.

……

at this time.

Shuiyue Residence, the training room.

Shen Xuan quietly reflected on his actions that day.

"It's time to change sides!"

When the Mysterious Master asked him about it, he expressed his feelings by mentioning exchanging a close friend for a Daoist partner.

In fact, he still preferred to change his allegiance and become a disciple of Master Hanyu.

After all, Master Hanyu was a genuine Ice Mage with astonishing combat power.

By taking Han Yu Zhenren as his master, his path of cultivation will be easier from now on.
Master Gu Feng Zhenren is indeed a good person.

However, apart from the "land" aspect, the other three aspects—wealth, companionship, law, and land—could not provide him with much help.

"No matter what, my master took me as his disciple when I was in the most difficult time, and bestowed upon me the skills and identity. I will never forget this kindness."

Shen Xuan felt relieved.

His personal attitude was insignificant in the face of the sect's interests.

Although he expressed his willingness to become a disciple of Master Gufeng.

However, for the sake of the sect's interests, they will help him condense his inner core and then have him join the sect of True Person Hanyu.

It was nothing more than persuading Master Gufeng to relinquish some of his benefits.

Shen Xuan is determined to condense his inner core.

However, on Little Lonely Peak, Senior Sister Yun Chixin has already achieved the completion of her Foundation Establishment.

There is also his longtime friend Qin Yuehan, who is about the same age as him.

If Shen Xuan stays on Little Lonely Peak.

This will inevitably affect their attempts to reach the Core Formation stage.

This is something Shen Xuan doesn't want to see.

Moreover, after joining Hanyu Peak.

There was only one direct disciple there, Liu Bingyu.

The hope of condensing an inner elixir is slim.

Master Hanyu will surely do his utmost to support him in his attempt to reach the Core Formation stage and continue his legacy.

This is also what Shen Xuan hoped for.

The Qingyun Sect is one of the seven major sects of the Song Dynasty.

They were the true ruling class of the Song state.

Staying under this big tree, with the mysterious jade talisman in hand, if he has enough cultivation resources, his chances of successfully condensing his inner core are very high.

Shen Xuan was unaware of this.

same moment.

Master Gufeng Zhenren is discussing with his eldest disciple Yun Chixin the matter of him switching sects.

"Junior Brother Shen is going to become a disciple of Senior Uncle Hanyu again?"

Yun Chixin stared at the Lone Peak Master in surprise.

He retained his original identity and then became a disciple of Master Hanyu.

Such things are extremely rare.

This was the first time Yun Chixin had ever heard of it.

Master Gufeng nodded slightly.

Then, he took out a jade box containing the Nine Nether Soul Refining Flower.

"Nine Nether Soul Refining Flower! Master, where did you get this?"

"This is a gift from your Grandmaster Uncle."
