Mortals, and even my disciple Han Li, don't mess with me!

Upon hearing this, Wu Yun's smug smile froze instantly.

He didn't want to either, but what could he do when he got this system?

Just as Wu Yun was about to say something, the system's cold voice rang in his mind.

[The "Teacher-Loving Cultivation System" has detected that Song Yu is unwilling to accept disciples from the host.]

Task 1: Take Song Yu as your disciple. Reward: A set of seven magic swords, of the highest level; the combined power of the seven swords is comparable to a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure.

Task Two: Become cultivation partners with Song Yu. Reward: One Immortal-Slaying Pearl!

After the system's voice faded, Wu Yun's expression turned somewhat strange, and his gaze toward Song Yu also became rather odd.

He pondered whether, if he successfully condensed his Nascent Soul later, he could directly take Song Yu as his disciple.

It is perfectly reasonable and normal for a Nascent Soul cultivator to take a Core Formation cultivator as a disciple.

"What are you thinking about? Is there a problem?"

Seeing Wu Yun standing there in a daze, Song Yu pressed him for answers once more.

"I was thinking, if I were to condense my Nascent Soul before you in the future, could you become my disciple? After all, you've seen my ability to teach disciples, there definitely wouldn't be any problems."

Wu Yun didn't hide anything or make up any excuses; instead, he told her directly.

As soon as he said that, everyone from the Luoyun Sect present was stunned and speechless.

I never expected that Wu Yun would want to take Song Yu as his apprentice.

However, there is one more person to exclude, and that is Han Li, because Han Li always felt that Wu Yun was a bit off about this sentence.

His eyes flickered with a strange light, but because he was standing behind everyone else, no one noticed.

Song Yu's stunningly beautiful face flushed crimson, a mixture of shame and anger.

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"I'm asking you, if I were to condense my Nascent Soul before you do, could you become my disciple?"

Wu Yun spread his hands, appearing to be telling the truth without a trace of falsehood.

His words also brought the others back to their senses from the shock.

"Stop daydreaming, okay? If you can condense your Nascent Soul before Junior Sister Song Yu, do you know what that means?"

The elder leading the Luoyun Sect was both exasperated and amused, and asked a question in return.

"What does that mean?"

Wu Yun blinked, looking like she was saying, "I don't know, you'd better tell me quickly."

"This almost means that you could potentially condense your Nascent Soul at around 300 or even 200 years old. After all, given Junior Sister Song's cultivation speed, she could only attempt to condense her Nascent Soul in a little over a hundred years at most. How is it possible for you to condense your Nascent Soul before her?"

The monk surnamed Duan explained speechlessly.

"What if I actually did it?"

Wu Yun didn't care and continued to ask questions.

"You...you should focus on forming your Golden Core first. Forming your Nascent Soul is too far off, and it's not appropriate to discuss it now."

Song Yu's anger had subsided considerably, but he still spoke in a rather irritable tone.

"If I really manage to condense my Nascent Soul before you, you must become my disciple."

Wu Yun persisted in pressing the issue, insisting that Song Yu give his opinion.

"Alright, if you can really condense your Nascent Soul before me, I'll consider becoming your disciple."

Left with no other choice, Song Yu could only try to appease him for the time being, and she didn't believe that Wu Yun could condense his nascent soul before her.

Putting aside the fact that their cultivation speeds are not much different.

The difference in their cultivation levels is a whole level, which cannot be bridged in a short time.

Even if Wu Yun manages to condense his golden core this time, it will still take him at least several decades of arduous cultivation to have any hope of achieving it.

To condense a golden core in a short period of time is practically a pipe dream.

Moreover, even if she does condense her golden core, it will take her a considerable amount of time to surpass her in the future.

Therefore, Song Yu did not believe that Wu Yun could defeat him.

I only agreed because I didn't want to continue this topic.

Otherwise, he could also see that if he didn't agree, the conversation would probably continue indefinitely.

The two had some acquaintance, and Song Yu naturally knew what kind of person Wu Yun was.

"Alright, that's enough for me. I promise I'll condense my Nascent Soul before you do. Then you'll be my disciple."

Wu Yun said with a broad smile and a smug look on his face.

"Alright, you guys get ready. I also need to get ready a bit. I'll go back to the sect with you after you come out."

Wu Yun then changed the subject.

Although he really wanted to return to Luoyun Sect alone, what happened next was quite dangerous.

Therefore, I decided to return with everyone else.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he's already a late-stage Core Formation cultivator; it doesn't mean he's invincible.

Now that we are only one step away from condensing our Nascent Soul, we must be extremely careful and absolutely cannot make any mistakes or be careless.

This is absolutely unacceptable.

"Okay! Then you should be careful. I'm worried that someone might cause you trouble during this time."

The elders leading the Luoyun Sect and Song Yu also knew why Wu Yun was not going to the Three Sects' Holy Land, so they did not continue to insist.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. I can handle this."

Wu Yun nodded, and confidently assured him.

His words also elicited a hint of mockery in the eyes of Du Dong, the undercover agent in the team.

After their exchange, the members of the Luoyun Sect no longer stayed where they were and returned to their courtyards to rest for the entire day.

……

However, something unexpected happened to Wu Yun.

In the middle of the night, someone suddenly broke into his house, and this person was none other than Song Yu.

"Uncle-Master Song, what brings you here?"

Wu Yun was genuinely surprised by Song Yu's sudden attack.

"Senior Brother Duan asked me to take you away and return to the sect. We can't stay here any longer."

Song Yu's answer was very simple and straightforward.

"Understood, let's go now."

Wu Yun was well aware of Song Yu's answer and immediately agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Although it's still somewhat unsafe, there's nothing we can do about it.

Because a great battle is about to take place between the three factions and the righteous and demonic paths.

Although Wu Yun also wanted to warn them, the righteous and demonic paths had also set a trap for the three sects of Yunmeng, a trap they were willing to turn on each other.

However, given his status, it would be highly illogical for him to know about this.

His most pressing concern right now is to quickly go into seclusion and condense his nascent soul. As for anything else, it's not important at all, so there's nothing more to say.

Having Song Yu take him away was also for their safety.

After all, both of them have the potential to condense their Nascent Souls in the future, and no sect would be willing to lose such cultivation geniuses.

Naturally, we should leave as soon as possible; this is no longer a dangerous place.

Every moment spent there increases the danger.
