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

"Actually, it's not impossible for you to take me as your disciple. However, you must surpass me in some aspect. I wonder if you would be willing to have a contest? But if you lose, you must agree to three conditions of mine."

As soon as Wei Wuyai landed, Wu Yun's previously extinguished thoughts were immediately rekindled.

He never expected that Wei Wuyai would be so easy to talk to.

It truly shocked and amazed him.

This was especially true after seeing Wei Wuyai's expression, which didn't seem to be faking or joking.

But just in case, Wu Yun still pressed for an answer:

"Brother Wei, are you perhaps joking with me?"

"I'm not joking. Since you're so inclined, you'll have to show me your skills. Besides, I'm quite curious about your supernatural abilities. I wonder if I could learn from you?"

Wei Wuyai shook his head, a slight smile on his face.

"Then let's just keep this between the two of us, and not tell anyone else, okay?"

Seeing that Wei Wuyai had said so, Wu Yun pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Of course! I wonder what you'd like to compete in?"

"Then let's have three rounds of competition: speed of escape and divine sense! This last one, Brother Wei, will decide, how about it?"

Wu Yun nodded without much hesitation and named two items, handing the last one to Wei Wuyai.

"Alright! No problem. Let's start with the first two rounds. I've been quite curious about just how fast you are, fellow Daoist. I only heard Li Chen mention it last time, but I've never been able to see it with my own eyes. Now I'm finally going to get my wish."

Wei Wuyai smiled and said with great joy.

"Then, Brother Wei, how do you intend to conduct the competition?"

Wu Yun continued to press for answers.

"It's not difficult. There's a towering mountain called Haoyang Mountain, ten thousand miles to the east of this city. It blooms year-round with a white spiritual flower called Haoyang Flower. This flower can be used in medicine and elixirs after it has grown for a hundred years. Let's see who can pick this Haoyang Flower first. Of course, it's not just about picking it; the older the flower, the better."

Wei Wuyai revealed the test question.

"No problem, sure! But, Brother Wei, do you have any Haoyang Flowers on you?"

Wu Yun agreed, and then added...

It wasn't that he didn't trust Wei Wuyai's character, but he still needed to be wary of him.

"Of course I do. I have a thousand-year-old Haoyang Flower, which was given to me by Li Chen ten years ago."

Wei Wuyai nodded in agreement.

"oh!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Yun nodded.

"Let's begin!"

"good!"

Wei Wuyai nodded as well, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

Seeing this, Wu Yun was not angry, because he had also disappeared.

A distance of 100,000 li would have been a real problem for Wu Yun in the past, something he would have been absolutely unable to overcome.

But for Wu Yun now, it's an easy thing.

In a short while, Wu Yun had already arrived at Haoyang Mountain, which was ten thousand feet high.

And as I had hoped, I saw the Haoyang flower, which was as white as snow and exuded a faint fragrance.

As for the year, Wu Yun also investigated it as quickly as possible.

With his current understanding of spiritual herbs, he arrived at the oldest Haoyang flower on the mountain in just one breath and bent down to pick it.

At the same time, a streak of emerald green light descended from afar.

The emerald green light dissipated, revealing Wei Wuyai, a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

When the great cultivator saw that Wu Yun had already picked the Haoyang Flower and was looking at him with a smile, he already knew that he had lost.

"I have lost! I never expected you to be so fast."

Wei Wuyai also calmly admitted defeat with a smile, as if he had expected it all along, showing no surprise whatsoever.

"Then thank you for your concession, Brother Wei. But what I don't understand is why you would make such a suggestion?"

This was indeed something that puzzled Wu Yun.

Logically speaking, Wei Wuyai would not have made such a suggestion, neither out of sentiment nor reason.

If word gets out, we'll lose all face.

It was really strange, and Wu Yun even suspected that there was some kind of trap.

But when he got to the mountain, he found that there were no traps.

It seems it really was just a spur-of-the-moment decision.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see your supernatural abilities. Now it seems I underestimated you. I originally thought I could defeat you and get you to agree to my three conditions, but it seems that's not going to happen."

Wei Wuyai did not hide anything from Wu Yun's question and answered it directly.

"Then, Brother Wei, what conditions do you wish me to agree to?"

Hearing such frank words, Wu Yun became curious and asked further questions.

He was genuinely curious about this matter.

"Actually, it's nothing much. The first thing is that I hope you will do your best to help me in the upcoming battle against the Mulan clan. The second thing is that no matter what mistakes Li Chen makes in the future, I hope you will spare his life, even if it means crippling his cultivation. I know this child's character too well. After being humiliated like that, he might commit a serious mistake in the future."

"The third thing is that I hope you can tell me frankly how long it took you to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, or which cultivation ground you came from. If this matter is not clarified, I will find it difficult to have peace of mind."

Wei Wuyai stated his three conditions directly.

There was absolutely no intention to hide anything.

"These three conditions are indeed a bit troublesome. Especially the third one. I am indeed a cultivator from the Tiannan cultivation world, that's beyond doubt, so there's no need to doubt it. If you don't believe me, I can also swear an oath to my inner demons to guarantee that I will not deceive you."

"As for the second matter, as long as he does not harm me or those around me in the future, then naturally I will not take his life."

"As for this first matter, if it truly requires my full assistance, then of course there will be no problem. As long as I can help, I will do my utmost, but I also need sufficient benefits. I won't do anything without some reward."

Without much thought, Wu Yun nodded in agreement to the three conditions Wei Wuyai had given him.

Because none of these three conditions are particularly difficult.

It's not a big deal to agree.

"In that case, there's no need for the next two matches."

Wei Wuyai was very pleased to hear Wu Yun's words and laughed loudly.

Just as he had expected, Wu Yun did not refuse the three conditions.

"No, we still have to have a competition. Especially the power of divine sense. I really want to see how much my divine sense compares to that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator."

Wu Yun shook his head and refused.
