Chapter 370: Chapter 370 Recruiting Talents Chapter 370: Chapter 370 Recruiting Talents “All hail the Dan Emperor! All hail Young Master Zhang!”

With reverent reception from everyone at Purple Cloud Pavilion, Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan descended to the plaza.

“Why have the Dan Emperor and Young Master Zhang suddenly graced Purple Cloud Pavilion with their presence? Could it be…” Pavilion Master Zhao Qianshan was extremely panicked in his heart, breaking out into a cold sweat.

Yet, upon further thought, he felt something was amiss; the four disciples who had returned to relay the message showed no signs of alarm, but rather excitement.

The gazes of many disciples of Purple Cloud Pavilion were all fixed on the youth standing in front of Zhang Junlan, their expressions mingled with surprise and concern.

It had been half a year since the incident at Desolate Domain where Luoyan had offended Feng Wuchen, and the news had already spread throughout Purple Cloud Pavilion.

“Is that the Dan Emperor? He hides his cultivation well; I can’t ascertain his level.”

“Half a year ago, it was because of him that I nearly lost my life, could he have come here seeking revenge?”

“Young Master Zhang’s teacher is so young, he looks even younger than me by a few years. Does he truly possess such a formidable artifact refining realm?”

The disciples of Purple Cloud Pavilion whispered among themselves, none daring to speak too loudly, fearful of offending Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan.

Lei Tianjue, the top disciple of Purple Cloud Pavilion, stared at Feng Wuchen, his brow slightly furrowed, thinking to himself, “Is this the Dan Emperor? Truly remarkable, an ordinary person could never completely conceal their aura to appear so common.”

Feng Wuchen, sensing a sharp gaze, quickly looked over, surprised, “Ninth Level of Tianyuan Realm, this person must be the top disciple of Purple Cloud Pavilion, with talent surpassing that of Luoyan, indeed a rare genius.”

“Such keen insight, this person’s strength must be truly terrifying.” Lei Tianjue secretly marveled, not daring to underestimate Feng Wuchen.

“This is bad! Did that rascal Luoyan offend the Dan Emperor again?” Amid his astonishment, Lei Tianjue’s face suddenly changed, remembering that Luoyan had gone out to attend a banquet.

The more Lei Tianjue thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and he started to inwardly curse in frustration.

Meanwhile, Pavilion Master Zhao Qianshan and the elders were overwhelmed with shock.

When the news of Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan’s visit to Purple Cloud Pavilion had suddenly arrived, Zhao Qianshan and the others had been scared out of their wits.

Without daring to think further, Zhao Qianshan quickly stepped forward, respectfully saying, “Zhao Qianshan pays respect to the Dan Emperor, pays respect to Young Master Zhang!”

“We pay our respects to the Dan Emperor! We pay our respects to Young Master Zhang!” The Grand Elder Li Qingshan and the others also hurriedly stepped forward, their expressions filled with respect, becoming increasingly anxious inside.

Among them, only Li Qingshan had met Feng Wuchen before, Zhao Qianshan and the other elders had not.

“Pavilion Master Zhao, the three elders, Purple Cloud Pavilion indeed deserves to be one of the six great forces of the heavens, truly formidable in strength,” Feng Wuchen praised, a smile appearing on his face.

All the way here, Luoyan had already given Feng Wuchen a brief introduction to Purple Cloud Pavilion, so he had a preliminary understanding of it.

“Thank you for your praise, Dan Emperor,” Zhao Qianshan responded with a slight smile.

Noting the excitement on Luoyan’s face, Zhao Qianshan inwardly sighed with relief, and he could also tell that Feng Wuchen and his party were not here because of the matter involving Luoyan.

Li Qingshan and the other elders also took a deep breath of relief.

“Dan Emperor, Young Master Zhang, please come this way!” Zhao Qianshan said hastily, making a respectful gesture of invitation and leading Feng Wuchen and his companions towards the great hall.

The fact that Feng Wuchen was Zhang Junlan’s teacher was something everyone at Purple Cloud Pavilion was well aware of, and Zhao Qianshan dared not neglect them.

Upon entering the great hall, female disciples immediately came forward to serve tea.

Zhao Qianshan, after giving Feng Wuchen a glance, said respectfully, “For the Dan Emperor and Young Master Zhang to visit Purple Cloud Pavilion is an honor for us.”

“Dan Emperor, for any offense Luoyan and the others may have unwittingly caused last time, I hope the Dan Emperor will forgive,” Li Qingshan spoke up, his face carrying a bitter smile.

Feng Wuchen smiled faintly, “Elder Li worries too much. Luoyan helped me find Beiming Kong and Murong Tian, which is a way to atone for his past mistakes. Today, as we just arrived at the Tianyuan Realm, Luoyan has already done me a great favor. Therefore, I’ve come to the Purple Cloud Pavilion specifically to nominate him.”

“Nominate?” Zhao Qianshan and Li Qingshan looked at each other in mild astonishment, neither understanding what Feng Wuchen meant by this nomination.

Zhao Qianshan asked in confusion, “Pill Emperor, may I ask what you mean by ‘nominate’?”

“Luoyan has notable talent, and I intend to take him with me to face new challenges. What do you think, Pavilion Master Zhao?” Feng Wuchen asked with a smile.

“This…” Zhao Qianshan was initially startled, and he exchanged glances with Li Qingshan and the others again, seemingly at a loss.

As the second disciple of the Purple Cloud Pavilion, and the one just beneath the senior disciple, Luoyan was a rare talent of the Purple Cloud Pavilion. Zhao Qianshan naturally wouldn’t agree; however, with Feng Wuchen making the request, Zhao Qianshan didn’t know how to refuse.

Luoyan’s eyes, full of hope, were fixed on Zhao Qianshan and the other elders.

“Junior brother, are you sure about this?” Lei Tianjue whispered beside Luoyan, noting his strong anticipation.

“Senior Brother, I’ve thought it through. I, too, want to venture out,” replied Luoyan as he nodded. This was an opportunity that came once in a thousand years, and Luoyan did not want to have regrets later in life.

Having made his decision, Lei Tianjue didn’t say anything further.

Seeing the hesitation from Zhao Qianshan and the elders, Feng Wuchen continued with a smile, “Pavilion Master Zhao, rest assured, Luoyan will still be a disciple of the Purple Cloud Pavilion. It’s just that he’ll be venturing out with me for a while, and he can return whenever he wishes.”

Hearing this, Zhao Qianshan finally felt relieved and smiled, “So that’s how it is.”

Turning his gaze to the hopeful Luoyan, Zhao Qianshan said with a smile, “In that case, if Luoyan agrees, I naturally have no objections.”

“That’s great! Thank you, Pavilion Master!” Luoyan exclaimed, overjoyed.

Zhao Qianshan cautioned, “Do not cause trouble for the Pill Emperor and Young Master Zhang, and remember this well.”

“Do not worry, Pavilion Master,” Luoyan responded, nodding assertively.

The recruitment of Feng Wuchen’s first genius upon entering the Tianyuan Realm was thus smoothly completed.

Although Luoyan remained a disciple of the Purple Cloud Pavilion, Feng Wuchen was not concerned about this; the future, however, was another story.

Then, Feng Wuchen’s gaze turned to Lei Tianjue, and he smiled, asking, “What about you? Are you willing to follow me?”

Upon hearing this, Lei Tianjue immediately looked flabbergasted.

Zhao Qianshan and the other elders’ faces changed, shocked that Feng Wuchen would dare to entertain the notion of taking away the Purple Cloud Pavilion’s senior disciple!

If Purple Cloud Pavilion’s talented disciples all followed Feng Wuchen, even if they remained affiliated with the Purple Cloud Pavilion, the pavilion’s strength would obviously be severely weakened.

The most important thing was that the Purple Cloud Pavilion was counting on Lei Tianjue to compete for a spot on the Tianyuan Realm’s talent ranking!

“If you do not wish to, I will not force you,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile.

“It’s not that I am unwilling. Though the title of Pill Emperor is prestigious, I do not wish to live under another’s shadow. If you want me to follow, then we shall see if the Pill Emperor has the ability to convince me,” Lei Tianjue said with a self-confident smile, certainly not intimidated by Feng Wuchen’s formidable status.

“Senior Brother, you want to challenge the Pill Emperor?” Luoyan’s expression changed drastically.

“Tianjue! You must not be disrespectful to the Pill Emperor!” Zhao Qianshan suddenly chastised loudly.

Lei Tianjue daring to speak such arrogant words to the Pill Emperor made Zhao Qianshan’s blood boil with anger. If they provoked the Pill Emperor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Then you have already lost,” said Feng Wuchen with a faint smile. “Just so happens I also want to see what the strength of the Purple Cloud Pavilion’s senior disciple is like.”
