Tian Shen Academy.

In front of the Fuyu Hall.

Yu Ge walked in slowly.

Upon entering the main hall, the surroundings were completely empty. The once magnificent and elegant Venerable Hall was now deserted.

Yu Ge was already used to it.

It must be that my master has replaced the treasures in the hall with spirit stones to forge a sword again.

Legend has it that Venerable Fuyu was nurturing a sword.

He cultivated a sword-nurturing technique, which allowed him to continuously forge spirit stones into immortal swords, eventually achieving abilities surpassing those of other swords of the same level.

There is a legend in the Tongxuan Continent about Venerable Fuyu. It is said that Venerable Fuyu nurtured his sword for three hundred years, just to slay a single immortal...

This also led to...

Although Venerable Fuyu possessed powerful cultivation, reaching the Immortal Realm, he exchanged all his treasures for spirit stones to nurture his sword in order to cultivate the Sword Nurturing Technique.

Therefore, Venerable Fuyu is also known as the poorest person in the cultivation world.

This is also the reason why Yu Ge and Venerable Fu Yu became master and disciple; one was bad and the other was poor, so they complemented each other perfectly.

Thinking of this, Yu Ge found it somewhat amusing, and then entered the main hall.

In the center of the main hall, on a wooden chair.

In Yu Ge's deep pupils, the image of a silver-haired man in white was reflected.

On wooden chair.

The white-clad man had flowing silver hair, handsome features, and a cold, refined face with deep, exquisite features. He was tall and slender, resembling a cool and aloof swordsman.

However, he also has his own unique characteristics.

Such a beautiful, aloof face, yet she's wearing a pale white robe.

This is Yu Ge's nominal master, Venerable Fuyu, one of the strongest figures on the continent.

Yu Ge already had a first thought about this cheap master: ...He's really poor. A dignified Venerable One is actually wearing clothes that have been washed to the point of being faded.

Wait, is that a patch?

Yu Ge looked around again.

The Fuyu Hall is particularly distinctive.

The immortal palace of the second Venerable of the Heavenly God Academy was not only empty, but even the jade that originally decorated the walls had been removed, leaving only damp cement walls on all four sides.

The residences of other venerable ones and teachers were decorated with various luxurious treasures and magical screens.

Unfortunately, Fuyu Palace had nothing at all; they were even peeling off the plaster from the walls.

If Fuyu Palace weren't unsellable, this Venerable One would have been sold for a very high price.

The only two decorations in the main hall are a wooden chair, which was clearly made by Venerable Fuyu himself.

There was also a wooden plaque that read...

"Humble and honest."

It was carved by Venerable Fuyu using his sword energy; Venerable Fuyu wouldn't even pay for the labor.

Upon seeing the entire Fuyu Hall, Yu Ge felt that there was really nothing to write on the plaque.

Given the state of Fuyu Palace, thieves would have to leave something behind whenever they came after the New Year.

……

Inside the Fuyu Hall.

Yu Ge was somewhat puzzled and couldn't help but ask her master, who was sitting in the main seat, "Master, this..."

She naturally didn't understand.

In Yu Ge's memory, when she became a disciple of Venerable Fuyu, the Yu family gave Venerable Fuyu a lot of gifts for becoming a disciple, and even used the most precious spirit stones to decorate this place.

How come you've been away for just a few days and are even peeling off the paint?

He saw that his disciple had returned.

Venerable Fuyu touched his hair somewhat awkwardly, then coughed lightly twice on his handsome and unassuming face, "Recently, Master has gained considerable insight into the art of sword nurturing..."

Yu Ge calmly replied, "So you sold your apprenticeship gift, your savings, and everything in Fuyu Palace to buy spirit stones to nourish your sword!?"

The Venerable Fuyu was a handsome young man, known as one of the four most handsome men in the cultivation world. Unfortunately, he was a poor man who spent all his time practicing sword cultivation, which made him look a bit cheap.

Venerable Fuyu didn't answer, but instead looked outside the hall, "Ah, the sky is so blue..."

That's right, that's exactly what Venerable Fuyu did, but Yu Ge is wrong about one thing.

Venerable Fuyu sold the apprenticeship gifts and treasures in the hall to buy spirit stones needed for nurturing the sword.

As for savings, how could Venerable Fuyu have any savings?

Yu Ge: ...

Again.

In her memory, this master seemed to have some obsession with the sword-nurturing technique, not only spending all his savings but also borrowing a lot of spirit stones and treasures.

If he weren't a Venerable One, he would have been hacked to death by the debt collectors long ago.

I still remember when Yu Ge became an apprentice not long ago.

The Yu family gave countless gifts for the apprenticeship ceremony, including hundreds of billions of spirit stones and treasures, countless precious items, luxurious immortal objects, and even several immortal mountains.

When Venerable Fuyu was giving Yu Ge the apprenticeship gift, he stingily took out a talisman.

After all, besides his natal sword, all Venerable Fuyu had left was his faded white robes.

I actually managed to get this talisman from a venerable master who made talismans, under the guise of borrowing it and never returning it.

Yu Ge was speechless. "Who is this person...?"

She couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

Look at the masters of those chosen ones, they are either reclusive peerless masters or unparalleled experts who fell from the upper realm, and they casually give their disciples immortal-grade cultivation techniques.

His master not only spent all of his apprenticeship gifts, but also wanted to sell the Fuyu Palace.

If no one in the cultivation world dared to buy Fuyu Palace, this place would probably have to be handed over to someone else.

Yu Ge: ...Master, aren't you ashamed?

She didn't even dare to imagine how the other Venerable Ones' disciples would mock them.

Upon seeing his eldest disciple return, Venerable Fuyu couldn't help but ask, "By the way, has Liyue's engagement been called off?"

Yu Ge: ...

She then remembered that there was also the matter of annulling the engagement.

Venerable Fuyu had only two disciples.

The eldest disciple is Yu Ge, the young master of the Yu family, one of the four great immortal sects of the Tongxuan Continent.

The youngest disciple is Nalan Liyue, the eldest daughter of the Nalan family.

They're all wealthy people.

That's right, Venerable Fuyu doesn't consider fate when accepting disciples, but rather their "original essence".

If he had no money, Venerable Fuyu would sigh, "Ah, young friend, we are not destined to be master and disciple..."

If he had the money, Venerable Fuyu would sigh again, then rub his hands together, "Alas, I see that you possess extraordinary talent, young friend, perhaps..."

Yu Ge: ...I'm out of ideas.

Venerable Fuyu nodded, then coughed twice. "Ge'er, your master has something else to tell you..."

Yu Ge: ...Why do I have a bad feeling?

A smile flashed across Venerable Fuyu's handsome, unassuming face. "Soon, you will preside over the Heavenly God Academy's disciple recruitment ceremony for this year..."

Yu Ge nodded. "Oh, so that's what it is..."

That's not a big deal. After all, although he is a disciple of the Second Venerable of the Heavenly God Academy, he is also respected as the Senior Brother of the Heavenly God Academy because he is the top of the Azure Cloud Ranking.

Therefore, it wouldn't hurt to host a large-scale event like the apprenticeship ceremony.

Looking at her master, who seemed hesitant to speak, Yu Ge couldn't help but ask, "Master, did you do something else...?"

Venerable Fuyu scratched his head, turned his head at a forty-five-degree angle, and said, "Um..."

Yu Ge: "So...?"

Venerable Fuyu chuckled dryly, somewhat ashamed, "Master has rented you out to Venerable Changyu for a few days. Remember to listen to him these days..."

Yu Ge: ?

Who did you rent it to?
