3000 Years In The Meditation Phase! - Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Little Kids Are Causing Trouble

On the main peak of the Green Destiny Sword Sect, in the courtyard where the sect master lived, the sect master of the Green Destiny Sword Sect, Jue Yunzi, was discussing the disciple selection that had just ended with his senior and junior brothers.

“The heavens are really protecting my Green Destiny Sword Sect.”

After reading the list of new disciples presented by Third Elder Bie Yun, Jue Yunzi sighed.

“In this batch of disciples, there are many new seedlings with good potential. Eh, look, there are even two people with Heaven Spirit Roots here.”

“Senior Brother, you can’t just look at talent.”

The Second Elder beside him reminded,

“There are many people who cultivate with good talent and fall into depravity because they don’t have the temperament. On the contrary, there are also many people who have mediocre talent but a firm heart and rely on hard work to obtain the Dao.”

“I naturally know this.”

Jue Yunzi waved his hand and said, “My talent is already very mediocre. Moreover, I’m not worried that the disciples of our Green Destiny Sword Sect will lose their minds because of their mediocre talent and slow advancement. After all, we have our Uncle-Grandmaster.”

There was one good thing about the Green Destiny Sword Sect. Once a disciple realized that their advancement was slower than the other disciples and had a problem with their mentality, Jue Yunzi or the few elders would point at the mountain in the furthest distance and introduce them to the adorable Uncle-Grandmaster of the sect.

When the disciples heard that there was a senior who had worked hard for 3,000 years despite being stuck at the Qi Refinement realm and still did not give up, they would feel ashamed in their hearts. After returning, they would work hard and rise again.

After years of experimentation, the success rate of this disciple’s breakthrough was about 98.7%.

“Senior Brother Sect Master.”

The Sixth Elder beside him reminded softly, “Don’t think that Uncle-Grandmaster doesn’t know anything. Be careful not to let him bear a grudge.”

“Sigh, do you think I’m unfamiliar with Uncle-Grandmaster? He has a good temper.”

Jue Yunzi did not care and laughed.

“By the way, speaking of Uncle-Grandmaster, someone in the disciple selection this time seems to have said that she wanted to look for him…”

“Yes, there is. She said that she wants to see her benefactor. Her benefactor is a young man with white hair and eyebrows and goes by the name of Bai Qiuran…”

Seventh Elder Liu Yun nodded and smiled.

“This disciple seems to be a noble of the Profound Heaven Country’s royal family. By the way, I remember that she’s one of the two disciples with heaven spirit roots this time.”

“Oh, is that so?”

Jue Yunzi’s eyes lit up.

“I didn’t expect Uncle-Grandmaster to be involved in such gossip when he went down the mountain at such an old age… Oh, no, fate. Junior Sister, how’s this girl?”

“Beautiful face, pure heart.” Elder Liu Yun replied.

“Moreover, her score in this selection is also very high. She’s ranked second, only slightly lower than the other person with a heaven spirit root… I think this is because she doesn’t know much about the cultivation world.”

“Since even Junior Sister says so, she must be a very good girl.”

Jue Yunzi rubbed his hands in an unscrupulous manner and looked around. “How is it? Senior brothers and sisters, what do you think?”

“What do you mean?”

“Senior Brother, could it be that you’re interested in a new disciple?” The Second Elder complained.

“Get lost! I’m talking about Uncle-Grandmaster!” Jue Yunzi suddenly said.

“Am I that kind of person?”

“Hmph.”

The Second Elder, Fourth Elder, and Fifth Elder sneered and did not answer.

“Alright… Junior Brothers and Sisters, I’m serious.”

“Look, Uncle-Grandmaster has been working for our Green Destiny Sword Sect for more than 3,000 years. Not to mention a Dao companion, he hasn’t even had a proper encounter. As disciples taught by him, shouldn’t we be filial at this moment?” Jue Yunzi coughed and said seriously.

“But…”

Sixth Elder Qing Yun was somewhat hesitant.

“Hey, doesn’t Junior Sister Qing Yun want to see Uncle-Grandmaster in love?”

Jue Yunzi instigated in a low voice.

The Sixth Elder hesitated for a long time before finally lowering her head with a red face and saying very ashamedly,

“I really want to—”.

“That’s good!”

At this moment, Jue Yunzi had displayed his unprecedented appeal as the sect master.

“Where’s Uncle-Grandmaster? Brothers and sisters, let’s go!”

“After Uncle-Grandmaster returned, he went into seclusion to refine pills and break through.” Third Elder Bie Yunzi whispered.

“I heard from the disciples guarding the mountain that he still had the traces of an intense battle on him when he returned. It’s best if we don’t disturb him for now… What if he’s really about to reach the Foundation Establishment realm?”

“Sigh, we’ve all been with Uncle-Grandmaster for hundreds of years. When has he ever gone in for more than three days? He’s probably just breaking through another level.”

Jue Yunzi took advantage of Bai Qiuran’s seclusion and kept saying words that would definitely get him beat up.

“Let’s go. Bring this girl along. Let’s go to the Seven Star Peak to welcome Uncle-Grandmaster.”

“Eldest Senior Brother, this isn’t good, right?”

Seeing the other elders follow Jue Yunzi out of the door, the most obedient Third Elder, Bie Yun, raised his hand.

“Uncle-Grandmaster’s love life is his own freedom. It’s not appropriate for us juniors to interfere… Moreover, are you really not afraid of being beaten?”

“Damn, Third Brother, you’re so troublesome.”

Jue Yunzi pointed at the Third Elder’s nose and said, “Back when we were still disciples, you were also the one who always went out to tell on us! Let’s go, let’s go. It’s fine if Junior Brother Bie Yun doesn’t come. We’ll go without him.”

Therefore, the old and disrespectful Green Destiny Sect Master brought a group of elders down the mountain to the gathering place of the new disciples.

The sect master and the elders of the sect made a move in unison, making these new disciples feel flattered. However, Jue Yunzi and the other old foxes were also very experienced in dealing with these young people. After casually saying a few encouraging words, they pulled Tang Ruowei, who was still a black-clothed substitute disciple, to the Seven Star Peak where Bai Qiuran lived alone.

Tang Ruowei was confused as she followed a line-up of big shots who could shock a whole region. They arrived outside the simple courtyard of the Seven Star Peak.

She looked blankly at the sect master and elders of the Green Destiny Sword Sect standing in a row outside the courtyard that was said to be Bai Qiuran’s residence. Moreover, the sect master and elders even said that Bai Qiuran was in seclusion and no one dared to knock on the door to disturb the other party.

After looking at her for a long time, the girl finally could not help but ask the Sixth Elder, who looked the most kind, “Um, Sixth Elder, could it be that Bai Qiuran’s status in the sect is very high?”

“His status? Of course it’s high.”

Qing Yun smiled softly and replied, “Uncle-Grandmaster is the direct disciple of the founder of the Green Destiny Sword Sect. His status is higher than anyone in the sect.”

“Then why is he still in the Qi Refinement Realm?” Tang Ruowei could not help but ask.

“This… Uncle-Grandmaster’s situation is special, but he’s definitely not weak.” The sect master reminded with a smile.

“Also, Uncle-Grandmaster doesn’t like to hear about cultivation realms. You better not mention it in front of him.”

“Oh.”

Tang Ruowei nodded in a daze, somewhat unable to recover.

She originally thought that although Bai Qiuran was powerful, the Green Destiny Sword Sect was still a famous super sect in the Nine Continents and Ten Lands. No matter what, he was only a Qi Refinement realm cultivator and would at most be in an intermediate position in the sect. However, she did not expect that the elders and sect master of this sect were all respectful to him. This made her somewhat at a loss as to how to face Bai Qiuran next.

Tang Ruowei, the sect master, and the group of elders waited on the Seven Star Peak for a moment. Finally, when the sun was high in the sky, the door of the courtyard was pushed open from the inside.
