Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

The Master of the Zhong Family’s Elder is a Foundation Establishment Perfection Elder in the Spirit Treasure Sect, holding a reputation within the sect second only to the True Man, and has been in seclusion for Core Formation in recent years.

”The noble intentions of the two Masters, Chen remembers them.”

Chen Ye’s heart warmed slightly, fortunately it wasn’t a script where he’s an enemy to the world, as behind him, there were many allies.

After exchanging a few polite words, the Spirit Treasure cultivator wisely bid farewell and left.

Just as the Zhong Family father and son departed, Su Xuange and Su Qingdai from Medicine King Valley followed closely behind.

Compared to the warmth of the Zhong Family father and son, Su Xuange’s old face appeared somewhat awkward.

Previously, due to Su Qingdai being captured by Chen Ye’s three disciples in the Grotto Heaven, he nearly had a confrontation with Chen Ye in Hunyuan City.

”Taoist Friend Chen...”

Su Xuange stiffened, raised his wine cup sincerely and said,

”Due to misunderstanding before, I, Su, have offended you on many occasions, even speaking recklessly. Today, I wish to apologize with this cup of wine. Although there have been some grudges between Lingyin Sect and our Medicine King Valley in the past, I, Su, will never hesitate in matters of big rights and wrongs!”

Chen Ye chuckled lightly and waved his hand graciously: ”Taoist Su has spoken heavily. Concern leads to confusion, it’s just human nature. Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, naturally everyone is pleased.”

Standing behind Su Xuange, Su Qingdai lightly stepped forward.

Today, she deliberately dressed modestly, with simple and elegant attire, a thin veil covering her face, her beautiful features faintly visible.

Su Qingdai’s eyes briefly scrutinized Chen Ye, this man today appears to have concealed his qi, and his face seems ordinary, lacking the stunning impression from before.

Her gaze paused for a moment on Qing Jun, who was vigorously gnawing on a piece of Spirit Beast bone:

”Thank you, Instructor Chen... and the three sisters, for your ’care’ along the way.”

Su Qingdai deliberately emphasized the word ”care.”

Only she and her three disciples knew the meaning of this care was truly complex...

The little girl raised her head with a smile: ”Then, Sister Su, come often to Lingyin Sect to play! Qing Jun hasn’t learned Sister Su’s culinary techniques yet!”

”...”

Su Qingdai’s face darkened, she would never forget the back-breaking experience of cooking in the Grotto Heaven.

Damn it!

She’s a noble pharmacist!

Definitely not a soot-covered cook lighting fires all day!

Zhiwei smiled to mediate: ”Taoist Su, during the few days in the Grotto Heaven, if not for Taoist Su’s strong assistance, we wouldn’t have returned fully loaded.”

Su Qingdai understood the deeper meaning in Zhiwei’s words.

The embarrassment in her heart also vanished into thin air.

Indeed, compared to the Dragon Blood Bodhi that could change her destiny, a few days as a cook was nothing.

This is an Upper Grade Third Tier Spirit Fruit!

But these three little girls actually gave it away without hesitation... If it was the people from Ten Thousand Puppet Sect, they would certainly be unable to resist the temptation to seize it.

”Sister Lu has spoken heavily.”

Su Qingdai took a deep breath and bowed gracefully,

”If I have time in the future, I will definitely visit Lingyin Sect and reconnect with all the sisters.”

”That’s agreeable, that’s agreeable.” Chen Ye smiled and raised his teacup.

Su Qingdai cast another subtle glance at Chen Ye.

This Chen Ye, according to the little girl, is utterly wicked...

Moreover, just before the Heaven-Suspended Tower, this Instructor Chen’s behavior can be described as ”arrogant,” completely disregarding Huayue Mansion.

Yet, his usual demeanor appears refined and courteous, starkly different from the evil described by the little girl.

Su Xuange listened in bewilderment, attributing it only to the younger generation forming deep battle bonds in the Grotto Heaven.

He stroked his beard in great comfort,

Although the entanglement between Medicine King Valley and Lingyin Sect remains difficult to untangle.

For example, the Myat Pill Pavilion event a few years ago.

At that time, Medicine King Valley supported Li Guangzong in establishing Myat Pill Pavilion, intending to intervene in the markets under Lingyin Sect’s influence, even dispatching a Foundation Establishment True Man for assistance.

As a result, that Foundation Establishment True Man was killed by Bai Susu.

As for Li Guangzong... He was reportedly killed by this Instructor Chen Ye.

However.

In the power struggles between sects, determining right from wrong is challenging, now that there are external enemies, all sects should put aside past grievances.

After some brief exchanges, Medicine King Sect cultivators also respectfully took their leave.

At this point, those that should be dealt with and those that came to probe have all basically made their rounds.

The hall’s drinking and mingling continued, but Chen Ye had already lost interest.

He lazily stood up, then looked at his three disciples:

”Full, drank, and watched the show enough. Let’s go home.”

”Great! Going home!”

Qing Jun cheered, jumped off the chair, and didn’t forget to grab a remaining plate of precious spirit fruit from the table and skillfully put them in her storage bag.

Zhiwei and Jin’er exchanged smiles, obediently following their master’s lead.

...

The night breeze was slightly chilly, the bright moon hung high.

Outside Hunyuan City, a Spiritual Ship emblazoned with the Lingyin Sect emblem ascended, transformed into a streak of flowing light, plunging relentlessly into the vast mountains.

Behind them.

On the top floor of the Immortal’s Dine, Gu Tangyin, who was chatting amiably with others, suddenly paused mid-action with her wine cup.

She walked slowly to the window, gazing at the departing Lingyin Sect ship’s trajectory, her exquisitely beautiful face was touched by cold murderous intent.

”Send word to father, have him personally take action. Otherwise... If the True Man delivers punishment, he won’t escape!”

Gu Tangyin’s cold voice, enough to drop ice shards, softly came from her red lips,

”Tell him to be cautious, ensure to hold back, only capture one of Chen Ye’s disciples, to prevent Lingyin’s fury. Just seize that little disciple, she possesses a peculiar flame, of remarkable value. Moreover, I suspect Chen Ye himself harbors significant secrets, when the time comes, search his disciple’s soul, perhaps there’ll be a pleasant surprise...”

Instructor Chen, oh Instructor Chen.

This is only the beginning... I hope your expressions aren’t too unpleasant in what’s to come.”

Gu Tangyin closed her eyes in delight, her slender fingers gently stroking the long whip at her waist.

Her urge to punish that arrogant person was becoming increasingly irresistible.

...

After informing the Herb Pavilion cultivators in Hunyuan City, Chen Ye boarded the Spiritual Ship with twelve Lingyin disciples.

At the same time.

He discreetly activated the Jade Talisman given by the Fourth Elder.

This Jade Talisman was handed over to him by the Fourth Elder upon leaving the sect, to be used for summoning the Fourth Elder for assistance in case of accidents.

It would be wasteful not to utilize it.

He was soon heading back to the sect, if not used now, when else?

The Spiritual Ship broke through the night, gliding through the sea of clouds.

Chen Ye stood at the bow, letting the night breeze rustle his robes.

”Instructor Chen, for this journey... the disciples worry Huayue holds some grudge.”

Zhao Li appeared solemn, bowing his head to Chen Ye.

Chen Ye glanced at Zhao Li.

This person is the dark hand laid by the Fourth Elder, at Foundation Establishment Sixth-Layer cultivation, appearing low-key, but actually one of the nine true inheritors of Lingyin, and a direct descendant of the current Lingyin Sect Master, possessing remarkable strength, such as how the nine Lingyin disciples were unscathed, all relying on his protection.

Chen Ye laughed and said, ”I have my preparations... But, do you know Zhao Xiangzhen?”

Zhao Xiangzhen is another true inheritor from the Zhao Family, admiring Bai Susu, having had conflicts with Chen Ye.

”Zhao Xiangzhen?”

Zhao Li hesitated for a moment, respectfully said,

”I know Brother Xiangzhen well since childhood, after he broke through the Foundation Establishment Late Period, he went to Qi Kingdom to battle with the Demon Sect. Not long ago, Brother Xiangzhen killed a Duqing Venerable, meritoriously serving our sect. Alas... If no war arose, Brother Xiangzhen wouldn’t have to rush to the Foundation Establishment Late Period; if he entered the Grotto Heaven, he also wouldn’t need to hide his identity like me.”

Killing a Duqing Venerable?

Unexpectedly, this guy actually had some strength.

Among Lingyin’s nine true inheritors, if Bai Susu ranks first, Zhao Xiangzhen could place second.

Chen Ye nodded: ”Is that so...”

Damn it, this guy must always fervently flatter Susu!

Zhao Li was puzzled, unsure why Instructor Chen suddenly asked about Zhao Xiangzhen.

The two should generally have little contact.

But seeing Chen Ye reluctant to discuss further, Zhao Li wisely refrained from inquiring.

”Oh? The ones supposed to come have already arrived...”

Chen Ye gazed at the distant mountain silhouette, suddenly smiled.
