After Murong Qi accompanied Xun Changan away, Yang Tiandong came looking for Han Jue.

He stated his intention.

Han Jue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Someone was actually rushing to accept a Disciple?

"Could it be that you want to take a Disciple as your enforcer to fight for the Yao Race territory?" Han Jue asked with a faint smile.

Having been seen through, Yang Tiandong instantly felt embarrassed and hurriedly waved his hands, saying, "How could that be!"

Han Jue snorted, "We'll see in the future. There are no good saplings for you to take as a Disciple right now anyway. When I accept Disciples, I must look at their Aptitude. You'd better not go around recruiting undesirables for me."

"Hehe, naturally. I'm also afraid of trouble."

"Scram. You haven't even reached the Void Fusion Realm. You're going to become the weakest Disciple under my sect."

"Okay…"

Yang Tiandong left dejectedly.

His cultivation was indeed at the very bottom.

Fortunately, Xun Changan was still keeping him company at the bottom.

Enlightenment Sword suddenly said, "Master, when will you arrange a Disciple for me too?"

Taking in a Disciple seemed like fun!

"Do you want a male Disciple or a female Disciple?" Han Jue asked with a smile.

Enlightenment Sword giggled, "Of course a female Disciple! You have too many male Disciples under you; I'm used to seeing them. Female Disciples are rare. Ling'er usually focuses on cultivating and doesn't like chatting with me."

"Cultivate properly. What is there to chat about?"

"No, I didn't mean I like…"

"Alright, we'll talk about this when you reach the Mahayana Realm."

Enlightenment Sword pouted, feeling a bit wronged.

Han Jue just liked seeing her aggrieved look. With the face of an aloof goddess displaying the grievance of a young girl, it was surprisingly cute.

"The next female Disciple will be raised by you."

"Thank you, Master!"

Enlightenment Sword's face immediately blossomed with a bright smile.

Han Jue felt like he was teasing a child.

Sigh.

My mindset has grown old.

For some reason, Han Jue felt that his heart wasn't as hard as before.

Must consolidate the Dao Heart!

Han Jue immediately brought out the book of misfortune and began cursing.

…

Three years later.

Fang Liang returned and hurriedly paid a visit to Han Jue.

Kneeling in front of Han Jue, he bowed first and then got straight to the point, telling the story of him and the Yao Race Saintess.

By chance, he saw a fish thrashing on the riverbank. He walked over and placed the fish into the river, unexpectedly earning the favor of the Yao Race Saintess.

The Yao Race Saintess had been heavily injured by enemies and could only turn into a fish to hide.

Seeing that the fish kept following him and seemed to possess spirituality, Fang Liang put it into a bamboo basket.

Later, realizing the fish was extraordinary and injured, Fang Liang used his spiritual power to treat it.

Han Jue listened with great interest.

Fang Liang asked anxiously, "Grandmaster, can I marry her?"

Han Jue said, "If you truly love her, naturally there's no problem. However, you cannot let a woman delay your cultivation. Your goal is Immortal Ascension, not living a secular life like a Mortal."

Fang Liang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Grand-disciple understands."

In fact, he was also somewhat bewildered.

But it was his first time experiencing love, and the other party pursued him so fiercely that he was led by the nose all along.

For some reason, he always felt that marrying and having children was not the life he should lead.

His goal was Han Jue.

He wanted to live like his Grandmaster.

After Fang Liang left, Han Jue didn't think much about it.

In his view, this was a tribulation Fang Liang had to go through.

If one cannot see through the Mortal World, how can one comprehend the Great Dao?

Han Jue had also suffered from the pain of love, though that was in his previous life.

Men and women each hold up half the sky; entangling together breaks the sky!

…

After entering the Reincarnation Earth Immortal Realm, Han Jue continued to Cultivate, striving to break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm as soon as possible.

According to what Zhang Guxing said, Heavenly Immortals might appear among the Heavenly Generals sent to cleanse the Mortal Realm. Han Jue only had Earth Immortal cultivation, which wasn't safe enough.

While Han Jue was immersed in solo cultivation, the Cultivation World remained lively with heroes emerging one after another.

Immortal God Ji of Heavenly Immortal Manor began slaughtering demonic Cultivators everywhere while challenging the experts of various Holy Lands, remaining undefeated and stirring up a wind of invincibility.

A certain mighty expert lamented, "A Prodigy should be like Immortal God Ji!"

These words prompted other Prodigies to follow suit. For a time, sects across the world began facing challenges from Prodigies.

Even Yuqing Sacred Sect was no exception, but fortunately, Yuqing Sacred Sect could handle it on its own.

Xiao Yao relied on his formidable strength to suppress several Prodigies. This old blind man was truly worthy of being the number one Prodigy of Heavenly Immortal Manor five thousand years ago.

Time flew by.

Seven years later.

Immortal God Ji came again.

"Fellow Daoist Guan, come out to meet. This time it's not a fight, but reminiscing about old times. I have an Opportunity to bestow upon you."

Immortal God Ji's tone was somewhat cheerful, clearly in a very good mood.

Han Jue hesitated for a moment, but still got up to meet him.

It was still that familiar small grove.

Seeing Han Jue again, Immortal God Ji still couldn't see through him.

"Just how strong is this guy?"

Immortal God Ji cursed inwardly. He was already at the eighth layer of the Mahayana Realm and had cultivated the Azure Lightning Sacred Body, yet he still couldn't see through Han Jue's cultivation.

Fortunately, he hadn't gotten arrogant this time, otherwise he would have lost face again.

"What is it?" Han Jue asked.

An Opportunity? Could he be sending a gift?

Wants to take him as a Master?

Han Jue felt that Immortal God Ji looked more and more pleasing to the eye.

As long as someone gave him gifts, they were a good person.

Immortal God Ji feigned a cough and said, "I received a Dream Message from a celestial god in the Upper Realm's Heavenly Court. He is a Heavenly General who is willing to take me in. When I ascend, I will become a part of the Heavenly Court."

That's it?

Han Jue frowned, feeling a bit dissatisfied in his heart.

Turns out he was just showing off to me.

"Your strength is quite good. I can bring you along. When the time comes, you and I can join forces to become the two strongest Martial Gods of the Heavenly Court. How about it?" Immortal God Ji asked with burning eyes.

If he couldn't beat him, he'd invite him!

Han Jue frowned and said, "Aren't you just being a dog for the Heavenly Court?"

Hearing this, Immortal God Ji's face instantly darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"

He had good intentions, yet he was insulted. If he didn't know he couldn't win, he would have lashed out on the spot!

"Don't you know the Heavenly Court might clean out the Mortal Realm? As a Prodigy of Heavenly Immortal Manor, can you tolerate your hometown being slaughtered?" Han Jue said bluntly.

Hearing this, Immortal God Ji frowned.

Heavenly Immortal Manor had also received word from Upper Realm Seniors—mighty figures of Heavenly Immortal Manor who had previously ascended—telling those who could ascend to do so as quickly as possible.

Immortal God Ji was aware of this, so he was overjoyed after receiving the Heavenly General's invitation.

"Then what can I do? I can't change the Heavenly Court's decision either!" Immortal God Ji said, suppressing his anger.

Han Jue said expressionlessly, "If the heavens want to destroy our Human Race, we Cultivators should overthrow the heavens! If you don't even have this kind of backbone, when you reach the Heavenly Court, how will the Heavenly Court view you?"

"When those celestial gods learn that your hometown was slaughtered and you remained indifferent, how will they view you?"

Immortal God Ji's heart was deeply stung.

He was born with an invincible heart, and Han Jue's words ignited his pride.

I want to become the strongest celestial god. If I bow my head now, what about the future?

Keep bowing my head forever?

Immortal God Ji clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Can the two of us overthrow the Heavenly Court?"

Han Jue said calmly, "We can't overthrow it, but however many come, we will kill! We can display our strength and make the Heavenly Court abandon cleansing the Mortal Realm for our sake!"

Hearing these words made Immortal God Ji's blood boil with enthusiasm.

Why hadn't he thought of this before?

Could this be the reason why Han Jue was stronger than him?
