Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

"Right~" The young man chuckled, then took a step forward. His figure seemed to disappear into the dark seabed. "Alright, I need to go back to sleep. I need to make some preparations for the future."

"...Alright, I'm leaving now. I hope that when I come back next time, I'll still be alive and well."

"Ah, I hope so."

The two gradually disappeared into this pure darkness.

In this place where nothing exists and there is nothing at all, a lush sapling takes root. Even though there is no wind and no external force, it still sways gently.

A deep sigh echoed from the darkness.

"Sigh... I hope so."

44. Trivial Matters of the Thunder Feather Sect

When Yunping emerged from the Seven Dream Tree space, he found Ye Yuchan standing on an open field, lightning flashing between her delicate fingers, sometimes arranging the lightning into an S shape, sometimes into a B shape.

Seeing Ye Yuchan's inquisitive behavior, Yun Ping smiled and said, "What's wrong, little Yuchan? You just came out of the Seven Dream Tree Illusion and you're already testing the results?"

"Ah..." Startled by Yun Ping's voice, the electric light dancing on Ye Yuchan's fingertips slowly dissipated. She turned her head and looked at the figure that had interrupted her. "Oh~ it's you, you heartless teacher."

"What do you mean by heartless? How have I been heartless?"

"Do you think a teacher who abandons his lovely female apprentice alone in the gray fog and then runs off to some unknown, godforsaken place to fool around is a teacher with a conscience?"

Yunping raised an eyebrow after hearing this. "Little Yuchan, the gray mist is only the first level of the Seven Dream Tree Illusion. I was the one who brought you in. Isn't it thanks to me that you've been able to cultivate the Lesser Heavenly Thunder Body?"

"How dare you say that!" Ye Yuchan was furious when Yun Ping mentioned this: "I almost died during the first trial. If it weren't for my quick thinking at the end, when I was exhausted from fighting that monster, I used the Mountain-Crushing Fist to turn it into dust, I would have been dead long ago!"

Fighting until exhausted?

The Mountain-Crushing Fist was reduced to dust?

Yunping's gaze towards Ye Yuchan changed completely; his face was full of admiration and respect, as if he were about to smash an Oscar statuette over her head.

Feeling uncomfortable under Yun Ping's strange gaze, Ye Yuchan shivered and questioned, "Why are you looking at me like that? Really... Let's go, I don't want to stay here anymore."

"This is a place that others can only dream of visiting. Seven Dream Tree, you're probably the first one to leave in such a hurry."

Yun Ping was absolutely right. When he brought his first few disciples to the Seven Dream Tree, whether it was Lin Yuan, Jiang Yuetian, or the others, they didn't want to leave after completing the trial. They wanted to continue to reap some benefits from the Seven Dream Tree.

Yunping had never seen anyone run out like Ye Yuchan had seen a ghost before.

How come this girl has no brains at all?

Ye Yuchan snorted in response: "Anyway, we've already gotten our share of the benefits. We probably won't get anything more if we keep trying. Besides, that Seven Dreams Tree seems to have gone back to sleep. Let's call it a day."

"But speaking of which..." Ye Yuchan flashed closer to Yun Ping and said mysteriously, "That thing really is the Seven Dream Tree?"

"What? You don't believe me? Didn't you witness it with your own eyes?"

"Well... I was just having a slight suspicion, after all, Emperor Wen did say so..."

Yun Ping turned to face Ye Yuchan's black eyes, which were filled with electric light, but he did not see any strange expression in them.

He raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm not saying this to be mean, but why do you trust Emperor Wen so much? Who told you that everything Emperor Wen said was necessarily true?"

"Hey~ let me tell you, you can talk about others, but you absolutely can't talk about Emperor Wen." Ye Yuchan crossed her arms and looked very serious.

Yunping realized the girl was serious, and his curiosity was immediately piqued. "What, you like him?"

"It's not that I like him, well... you could call it liking. Anyway, he's my idol! You know what an idol is, right? Back in the old Earth, I was a fan of celebrities too, that's pretty much it."

"Do you want me to get you a few posters of Emperor Wen so you can lick them?" Yun Ping smiled mischievously at her.

Ye Yuchan slapped him across the face, but Yun Ping easily dodged it: "Who's the kind of pervert who licks posters? Cough cough, anyway, I've already tolerated you saying you're Emperor Wen last time, so don't keep talking bad about Emperor Wen."

"I didn't say anything bad about him. I just said that he sometimes says the wrong thing."

"Tsk... I can't refute that."

Having personally experienced the illusion of the Seven Dream Tree, Ye Yuchan had no way to refute Yun Ping's words. In this light, it's very likely that Emperor Wen's statement that the Seven Dream Tree was just a joke was indeed a joke in itself.

However, there's no point in thinking about these things now. Ye Yuchan just wants to find an opportunity to test her Little Thunder Body.

As for the Black Flame Arrow, it was a martial arts technique for archery. Before obtaining the bow, one couldn't even practice it, let alone test its power.

"What's wrong? Getting itchy hands? Want to find someone to beat up?" Yun Ping, who had completely seen through Ye Yuchan's little scheme, said, "How about I, your teacher, give you a sparring session?"

"You??" Ye Yuchan glanced at Yun Ping, recalling how Jiang Yuetian, a cultivator at the peak of the Transformation Realm, slapped him but he was unharmed. She shook her head. "Forget it, I'd rather find a few magical beasts."

"Warcraft? That works too."

Yun Ping closed his eyes slightly, his gaze moving upwards and then expanding to the entire gray mist forest, his vast spiritual consciousness rapidly sweeping across the entire forest.

Although the Gray Mist Forest is the home of the Seven Dream Tree, there are always some low-level magical beasts around its home. These magical beasts are inherently brutal and lack intelligence. Their minds are full of killing, fighting, and reproducing. They are the perfect tools for practice.

In the past, after Lin Yuan and the others completed the Seven Dream Tree Trial, Yun Ping used the magical beasts in the Gray Mist Forest to give them practice, and the effect was quite good.

But this time, something unexpected happened.

Yunping's vast consciousness caught something unusual for a moment. It wasn't a magical beast, but two colliding spiritual energies.

He carefully focused his attention on that side, while simultaneously reducing his mental awareness to a level that was not easily detected, before he could clearly see what was happening there.

Two men and two women, one of whom, a male disciple at the Xuanmen stage, is fighting another female disciple at the Xuanmen stage.

The other man and woman flanked the female disciple, guarding her from behind, as if to prevent her from escaping.

It is worth mentioning that the Taoist robes worn by these four cultivators were actually all from the Thunder Feather Sect!

Yunping's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Ye Yuchan and ran towards the direction where the four of them were.

"What are you doing?!" Ye Yuchan exclaimed in surprise.

"What for? Of course, we're going to watch some fun! It's an absolute sitcom!"

45. I have a saying...

"Junior sister, let me advise you again: stop doing these pointless things. It's no good for you, for me, or for anyone else."

"I'll give you another piece of advice: don't you dare call me 'Junior Sister' again. If you utter another word of nonsense, I'll cut your tongue out and feed it to the fish, you believe me?!"

"Junior sister, why are you doing this..."

"What the hell do you want!"

With a furious shout, dazzling starlight erupted as spiritual energy surged, and several sword lights flashed like a storm in the gray mist forest.

The tall woman, dressed in the robes of the Thunder Feather Sect, coldly brandished her pale purple longsword, her body ablaze with purple light, the electric sparks within it leaping rapidly.

Before her, the helpless-looking young man also held his breath and concentrated, unleashing his spiritual energy. His slender green sword met the woman's longsword with equal force.

Sparks and lightning crackled and leaped violently within the gray mist forest. As the two spiritual energies collided, layers of turbulence arose in the air, transforming into rolling waves that spread outwards.

Both of them were at the Xuanmen stage of cultivation, which was barely considered among the top disciples. After exchanging blows, they were unable to determine a winner in a short period of time.

Then the two Lei Yu Sect disciples who were waiting nearby spoke up.

"Senior Sister Zhang, please stop resisting. What's wrong with Senior Brother Zhong? He's handsome, talented, and his cultivation has broken through the Xuanmen realm, reaching the Lingtai stage. He's wealthy and powerful, and he's a perfect match for you!"

“That’s right, Senior Sister Zhang… Senior Brother Zhong Tianying is one of the top ten, and he owns the largest casino in Jinglin City, Thunder Sky Casino. Besides, this marriage was arranged by your master, Senior Sister Zhang. It shouldn’t be like this at all—”

"Senior Sister Zhang, come back with us. Senior Brother Zhong will not mistreat you."

"That's right, Senior Sister Zhang... why are you so stubborn?"

"I'll screw your dog head!!!"

Zhang Ruoxue's furious sword strike sent the young man facing her flying. A raging fire burned fiercely within her, and her beautiful, willow-leaf eyes reflected the flames of her fury.

Her harsh gaze swept over the two people who were intimidated by her words, and she immediately began to curse.

"If either of you dares to say another word, I'll dig up your ancestors' graves one of these days!"

Upon hearing this, both of their expressions changed drastically.

One of them spoke up directly, coldly saying, "Senior Sister Zhang, I'm still addressing you respectfully as Senior Sister because we're doing this for your sake, yet you're so ungrateful and even resort to hurtful words. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?!"

"Huh? Thinking of me? Think of yourselves, huh?" Zhang Ruoxue glared coldly at the man. "Wasn't it your elders who ordered you to come and arrest me? If it weren't for that order, who among you would be willing to get involved in this mess?"

"Huh? Tell me, of all of you here, who has feelings for me, who has a connection with me, and who has done me a favor?"

“We are all disciples of the same generation in the Thunder Feather Sect. If there is any affection between us, it must be the affection and the status of being fellow disciples. Although I cannot say that I have done you a favor, we are still fellow disciples!”

"Fellow disciples?"

Zhang Ruoxue sneered and pointed at the young man.

"Fellow disciples, my foot! That's laughable. You've been in the Thunder Feather Sect for about two years now. Let me ask you, how many times have you seen me and how many words have you spoken to me in those two years? I'm afraid you've said more today than in the previous two years combined!"

"This……"

The young man was speechless after hearing Zhang Ruoxue's words.

Just as Zhang Ruoxue said, he had only seen Zhang Ruoxue a handful of times since he joined the sect, and they had exchanged no more than five sentences in total.

If they weren't both wearing the Taoist robes of the Lei Yu Sect, probably no one would believe that they were disciples of the same sect.

"Junior sister."

The youthful form that had been knocked away earlier reappeared in a disheveled state, but this time his right hand, which was holding the sword, was trembling weakly, indicating that his right arm meridians had been seriously injured.

Upon hearing the young man's voice, Zhang Ruoxue's icy gaze shifted to him.

"I told you, don't call me junior sister anymore."

“As long as you are still a member of the Thunder Feather Sect, you are my junior sister. I cannot stand by and watch my junior sister betray the sect.”

"I don't think there's anything I'd miss about a sect that arbitrarily uses its disciples' life events as tools."

The young man's eyes narrowed, and his voice suddenly became heavy.

"Junior sister, are you really unwilling to go back with your senior brother?"

“I’ve said it before, I’m not your junior sister. And I won’t go back with you to marry that bastard Zhong Tianying.”

"Why do you hate Senior Brother Zhong so much?!"

Faced with the young man's questioning, Zhang Ruoxue paused slightly, then revealed a resolute expression.

"Because I have already found my soulmate, Zhang Ruoxue, I will marry no one but him in this lifetime!"

"Ha." The young man shook his head at Zhang Ruoxue as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. "Junior sister, since you came to Lei Yu Sect to cultivate, you have only gone down the mountain to train twice, and each time you only stayed for five days. There has never been any news of you being close to any male disciple in Lei Yu Sect. Yet you dare to say that you have found your soulmate?"
