Chapter 1032: You Must Not Take It to Heart
Just as Qi Yuan was secretly worrying, a familiar and pleasant female voice suddenly came from his ear:
“Disciple Ling Yu greets Master.”
Turning to look, he saw a graceful and beautiful woman in fine clothing arriving gracefully, her beautiful eyes full of excitement and joy. It was the beautiful Grandmaster of the Taixuan Holy Land whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Ling Yu… Grandmaster?
Seeing this old acquaintance who was practically bursting with joy, Qi Yuan's mouth twitched subconsciously, and he went up to greet her with a strange expression:
“It's been a while, Fairy Ling Yu. Your grace is even greater than before.”
Originally, he intended to call her Grandmaster. However, considering the high probability that he was the Reincarnation of Immortal Lord Yuan Wu after his time on Earth, calling his eldest Disciple 'Grandmaster' would be a bit of a reversal of the natural order.
Although the relationship was almost confirmed, he hadn't recovered his memories of his past life yet, so he naturally couldn't comfortably accept the identity of Master.
After weighing his options, calling her 'Fairy' was more appropriate.
On the other side, hearing the title 'Fairy', Ling Yu's smile froze. She thought her previous actions, which could be suspected of 'betraying one's Master', had provoked her Master's dissatisfaction. She explained nervously:
“That… well, Master, before, your Disciple was also forced by circumstances. I tried to use some unconventional means to help you with your Awakening of memories. It was by no means disrespect toward you. You must not take it to heart.”
At this point, she lowered her head with an embarrassed expression, adopting an attitude of submitting to any punishment:
“If you are still angry, your Disciple will accept any beating or punishment without complaint…”
Seeing the originally lawless Devil Head suddenly become so well-behaved, Qi Yuan couldn't help but laugh, nearly suffering internal injuries from holding it in.
So, the reason this cheap Disciple of his kept forcing him to write CEO novels was that she wanted to use extreme pressure to make him use his brain more and expand his thinking, all to recover his memories sooner?
Although he really wanted to take the opportunity to let this Devil Head experience the taste of being severely paddled, considering the current occasion, he waved his hand and said solemnly:
“Fairy Ling Yu, you should stop calling me Master for now. I haven't recovered any memories regarding Immortal Lord Yuan Wu yet. Strictly speaking, I should still call you Grandmaster.”
“The priority now is to help the Yuan Realm clean up the mess before us…”
“What?!”
Hearing this, Ling Yu immediately raised her head. Her gaze toward him was full of disbelief, as if her common sense had been overturned.
This guy hasn't awakened the memories of Immortal Lord Yuan Wu yet, so how did he Cultivate to such a level in such a short time?
What made her feel most regretful was that she could have just played dumb to gloss over the fact that she had intentionally teased her Master. Instead, out of a guilty conscience, she had confessed without being prompted, confirming her crime of betraying her Master.
After all, as long as she insisted she hadn't recognized Qi Yuan as Immortal Lord Yuan Wu, she could have escaped under the excuse of 'the ignorant are not guilty'. But now…
For a moment, Ling Yu was full of embarrassment and stammered her defense:
“So that's how it is. Your Disciple… uh, no, I actually couldn't confirm if you were Master himself either, and I was planning to test you further…”
Just as the female talisman Immortal was blushing and trying to salvage the situation, Xuanyuan Wei had already arrived with the human emperor sword. She bowed respectfully to Qi Yuan, her voice carrying a hint of guilt:
“Your Disciple's strength was insufficient, and I failed to personally slay the arch-culprit, Haotian Immortal Emperor. I ask Master for punishment!”
Qi Yuan shook his head gently and comforted her warmly:
“You have done well enough. If he hadn't been driven to a dead end, Haotian Immortal Emperor might not have been able to make up his mind to summon that World-Destroying Demonic Dragon and seek his own destruction.”
Then, he changed the subject and pointed to Ling Yu, who was nearby questioning her life:
“This Fairy Ling Yu is your Senior Sister. Since you are new to the outside world, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask her.”
In his words, he had already recognized Ling Yu as his true eldest Disciple. In reality, it was to find a useful guide for the newcomer Xuanyuan Wei so he could be lazy.
The Great Void was a good place, but the single fact that one couldn't Cultivate there strictly limited the development of the Great Void's original residents.
Since he had taken Xuanyuan Wei as a Disciple, he naturally wouldn't let her stay in the Great Void for long. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of this direct descendant of the Great Qian Imperial Clan's talent?
Although Xuanyuan Wei couldn't absorb heaven and earth spiritual energy like an ordinary Cultivator, the Great Qian Imperial Family possessed a unique cultivation system. They could rely on the human race's Luck to obtain all sorts of incredible Divine Ability methods, which were not at all inferior to those of Cultivators after cultivation.
Now that Xuanyuan Wei had obtained the complete human emperor Legacy from Xuanyuan Kun, coupled with the enhancement brought by the human emperor sword, as long as she was tempered a little, her future prospects would be absolutely limitless…
As Qi Yuan's thoughts turned, Xuanyuan Wei had already respectfully called Ling Yu “Senior Sister.” At the same time, she accompanied it with a series of praises and flattery, leaving Ling Yu dazed.
At this time, Wu Miaozhen and Xia Hanjun also stepped through the air from the battlefield that had undergone a strange change, coming directly before Qi Yuan.
After nodding to the man, Wu Miaozhen composed herself. Her gaze swept toward the group of Immortal Court experts who were in chaos due to the sudden death of Haotian Immortal Emperor, and she asked in a deep voice:
“Now that the chief culprit Xuanyuan Hao is dead, how should we deal with these remnants of the Immortal Court under his command?”
At this moment, this Immortal Court camp, which had once been overflowing with Evil Qi, had long since lost its previous prestige. Having lost their backbone, they were all panicking and at a loss, no longer possessing any Battle Intent. Many Immortals on the outskirts of the battlefield had already greased their feet and slipped away.
Hearing Wu Miaozhen's question, Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Just as he was about to answer, he saw Ji Fan and Duanmu Xi, who had been missing for a while, rushing over in a hurry:
“Big Brother!”
“Chief Helmsman, wait!”
Qi Yuan glanced at Duanmu Xi, who was following behind Ji Fan. He saw that although this true self incarnation of Donghua Immortal Emperor had a fairly steady aura, his appearance was somewhat disheveled, and even the jade crown on his head was crooked.
Evidently, after Haotian Immortal Emperor learned of what these two had done on the battlefield, he had branded them as moles on the spot.
If they hadn't run fast enough, and if the battle hadn't been so intense, they might have been executed on the spot as Immortal Court traitors to serve as a warning to others.
Of course, as his loyal follower, it wasn't surprising for Ji Fan to risk exposure to help the Yuan Realm.
By contrast, Duanmu Xi's behavior was quite interesting…
Thinking of something, Qi Yuan didn't expose them. Instead, he nodded to them with a smile and said with a calm and composed face:
“You two have come at the right time. I plan to leave these remnants from the Immortal Court to you for disposal. What do you think?”
Hearing this, Ji Fan and Duanmu Xi were first stunned, then they simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. They cupped their fists and replied:
“Yes, Big Brother.”
“Thank you for your mercy, Chief Helmsman.”
