Chapter 37: The Third Daughter of Destiny, Bind Her Quickly!

"They actually have mounts?"

"That's a Black Wind Horse, and the other one is… a Divine Swift Black Steed?!"

"Those mounts are pretty flashy!"

"What kind of status or position must they have to use a Divine Swift Black Steed as a mount?"

As soon as the two tall and majestic mounts entered their field of vision, they sparked a heated discussion among the Disciples.

Given the strength and status of an Outer Sect Disciple, it was basically impossible to own a mount.

If they absolutely had to get one, it would most likely be no better than a common horse from the mortal world.

They weren't even qualified to own a mount like a Black Wind Horse.

Let alone a Divine Swift Black Steed.

"It's Junior Sister Wei!"

"And Li Xuanfeng! So they're both okay?"

"How… how did they suddenly get mounts?"

In the crowd, Wang Jiu and Ding Xian were somewhat dazed.

This Divine Swift Black Steed was a Rank 3 Yao Beast, equivalent to a Qi Cyclone Realm Cultivator.

Even if it wasn't specialized in combat, it was still Rank 3; if they weren't killed by a single kick from its hoof, they'd consider themselves lucky!

And yet, such a Yao Beast was obediently serving as Li Xuanfeng's mount?

Just what was his identity and status?

The two were profoundly shocked.

However, their greater shock was still to come.

Luo Li and several Peak Masters appeared as if teleporting; they were on a distant hilltop a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, they had descended here.

"Li Xuanfeng, Wei Qingyan, we have been waiting for quite some time!"

The Peak Master of Sword Washing Peak said with a chuckle.

"I am the Peak Master of Sword Casting Peak!"

"I am the Peak Master of Elegant Sword Peak!"

"I am…"

Several Peak Masters introduced themselves simultaneously.

This scene left all the Outer Sect Disciples completely stunned.

Were the high and mighty Peak Masters actually this approachable?

Why was this so different from the image of the aloof experts they had in mind?

"Junior Brother and Junior Sister are indeed dragons and phoenixes among men, possessing extraordinary Auras. For our first meeting, I am the Sect Leader's Personal Disciple, Luo Li!"

A faint smile played on Luo Li's face, making countless Disciples blush and their hearts race, feeling as if they had fallen in love.

"Greetings, Peak Masters. Greetings, True Disciple Luo!"

Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan cupped their fists.

"Greetings, Peak Masters. Greetings, True Disciple Luo!"

The other Outer Sect Disciples also hurriedly bowed in greeting.

"Ahem, we won't beat around the bush. We've heard about your situation, and our waiting here is because we wish to take you both as Disciples!"

The tall and burly Peak Master of Sword Casting Peak said, getting straight to the point.

"What?!"

"Taking Disciples?"

"The Peak Masters descended to the Outer Sect just to take Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan as Disciples?"

"How is this possible?!"

Every Disciple was shocked to their core, filled with astonishment.

What kind of status did a Peak Master of Hundred Sword Mountain hold?

Ordinarily, even great families or imperial relatives wouldn't have the chance to have their juniors become a Named Disciple under a Peak Master!

Much less a Peak Master taking the initiative to show up and request to take a Disciple.

Even more so, the six Peak Masters had been waiting here in advance before the two had even returned to the Sect!

The impact this scene had on the Disciples was incredibly powerful!

Wang Jiu and Ding Xian were even more dazed.

Who was Li Xuanfeng?

He was a fellow Disciple who had joined Hundred Sword Mountain with them three years ago!

And he was the type who had bottom-tier results in the entry examination!

Although his cultivation had reached the Peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Aperture Realm during the previous test, it shouldn't be enough for Peak Masters to personally come out to take him as a Disciple, right?

With that kind of talent, he would quickly fade into the crowd upon entering the Inner Sect. How could he be favored by a Peak Master?

Could it be… he was hiding even more strength?

Thinking of this, both of them were startled.

"Taking Disciples?"

Li Xuanfeng pondered for a moment.

Actually, he had anticipated this scene beforehand.

No matter which world it was, having a powerful background was a good thing; it made things convenient, allowed one to avoid detours, and made obtaining resources much easier.

Taking a Peak Master as a Master meant having a powerful background.

Before Awakening the System, Li Xuanfeng would have been more than happy.

After having the System, whether he took a Master or not didn't have much of an impact on him.

Even if he were to take one, it would have to be a Cultivator with extreme strength and extremely high talent and Luck!

The Peak Masters of Hundred Sword Mountain certainly counted as top-tier Cultivators in the Great Yan Dynasty.

But Li Xuanfeng felt that for them to be his Master, they were still a bit lacking.

Thinking of this, he habitually used the power of the System to check the color of everyone's fate.

Glancing around, the several Peak Masters were all surrounded by a very rich yellow light.

A few of them even had a hint of orange within the rich yellow light.

As his gaze shifted, a brilliant gold entered his eyes!

"Golden Destiny!"

Li Xuanfeng's gaze paused.

The one radiating golden light was none other than Luo Li!

"System, bind her quickly!"

Li Xuanfeng immediately called out to the System in his mind.

The issue of taking a Master could be set aside for now, but binding a Daughter of Destiny could absolutely not be delayed!

[Ding! Binding successful!]

The System prompt sounded.

Luo Li's attribute panel then appeared before his eyes.

[Name]: Luo Li

[Destiny]: Alchemy Path Prodigy

[Cultivation]: First Level of the god shedding realm

[Physique]: Pill God Physique

"An Alchemy Path Prodigy. It seems she has a talent for Alchemy that others can hardly hope to match. She is destined to reach the absolute Peak of Alchemy!"

Li Xuanfeng thought to himself.

After Wei Qingyan and Xu Miaozhen, Luo Li was the third Daughter of Destiny he had bound!

And she was a powerhouse of the god shedding realm!

After the Core Condensation Realm was the Core Shattering Realm, and after the Core Shattering Realm was the god shedding realm.

In other words, Luo Li was two major Realms higher than Li Xuanfeng!

At such a Realm, as long as she made any Breakthrough, even a simple ten-fold return would benefit Li Xuanfeng immensely.

"How about it? Come to my Sword Casting Peak. My Sword Casting Peak doesn't have much else, but we have plenty of precious swords!"

"As long as you come to my Sword Casting Peak, you can pick and choose any Spiritual Artifact you want!"

Seeing that Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan hadn't answered, the Sword Casting Peak Master thought they couldn't decide whom to take as a Master.

"The Sword Casting Peak is just a bunch of rough men refining artifacts. The quality of the longswords they forge is average. My Sword Burying Peak has already buried thousands of them for them. There's no need for me to say more about who is stronger, right?"

The Peak Master of Sword Burying Peak looked at Li Xuanfeng with burning eyes.

"Neither Sword Casting Peak nor Sword Burying Peak will do. Come to my Sword Severing Peak, and I will tailor-make the most suitable Martial Skills for you!"

The Peak Master of Sword Severing Peak said while toying with a longsword.

"The path of Cultivation emphasizes Law, Wealth, Companionship, and Land. My Sword Hiding Peak might be lacking in other areas, but what we lack least is cultivation resources!"

"If you two enter my tutelage, resources will be provided in abundance!"

The Peak Master of Sword Hiding Peak said grandly.

"My Sword Washing Peak also doesn't lack resources, and I even have a special Secret Art to enhance Spiritual Artifacts. If you join me, this Secret Art can be passed on to you immediately!"

The Peak Master of Sword Washing Peak also spoke up.

"My Elegant Sword Peak is the lineage with the most female Disciples among the seven Peaks. Both Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills are extremely suitable for female Cultivators. Wei Qingyan, are you interested?"

The Peak Master of Elegant Sword Peak wasn't greedy. While the other Peak Masters wanted to take both into their lineages, she focused her gaze on Wei Qingyan.

She felt she was being clever; if one wanted both, there was a high chance of ending up with neither.

In that case, it was better to stick to a target from the beginning. She only needed Wei Qingyan!

"I'll listen to Senior Brother!"

"Whomever Senior Brother chooses, I will choose!"

Wei Qingyan's answer surprised everyone.

Had Li Xuanfeng given her some kind of bewitching potion?

She even deferred to his opinion on something like choosing a Master?

All the Peak Masters looked amazed.

The Peak Master of Elegant Sword Peak's expression froze. She thought she was clever to focus on one, but she didn't expect this girl to want to choose the same Master as Li Xuanfeng!

A miscalculation!

"Choosing a Master is no trivial matter. You should choose the Master most suitable for yourself."

The Peak Master of Elegant Sword Peak said.

However, Wei Qingyan stubbornly shook her head.

Whom she took as a Master wasn't particularly important to her; she had the Sword Spirit to guide her in theory.

As for resources, even if there was a difference between the Peak Masters, it probably wasn't that large.

Most importantly, Wei Qingyan wanted to be with Li Xuanfeng. If they took the same Master, she could see her Senior Brother often!

Seeing Wei Qingyan's determined look, everyone turned their gazes toward Li Xuanfeng.

Li Xuanfeng would decide the destination of two people by himself!

"Choose me, choose me!"

The Peak Masters watched Li Xuanfeng silently, but their eyes and hearts were constantly urging him.

Li Xuanfeng fell into contemplation.

Other Cultivators begged to take powerhouses as their Masters.

Yet he had a group of powerhouses lining up for him to pick. This treatment was incredibly high.

But to be honest, Li Xuanfeng didn't particularly want to choose any of them.

Watching Li Xuanfeng's contemplative look, all the Outer Sect Disciples were anxious for him, wishing they could take his place!

They couldn't even get an Outer Sect Elder to take them as a Disciple, and now the Peak Masters were lining up for Li Xuanfeng to choose, yet he was still hesitating.

It was truly infuriating to compare oneself to others!

"Peak Masters, I think everyone should stop arguing!"

Just as Li Xuanfeng was about to make a choice, Luo Li's voice rang out.

"Prodigies like Junior Brother and Junior Sister can only truly shine in the hands of Master!"

"So, let's leave this opportunity to Master!"

A Jade Slip appeared in Luo Li's hand, and with a faint smile, she crushed it.

Hum!

The spiritual energy between heaven and earth suddenly surged.

An indescribable pressure permeated the world, as if an overwhelming power was rapidly converging toward this place.

The figure of a stunningly beautiful woman who made the world pale in comparison slowly took shape.

When Li Xuanfeng saw that high and mighty, majestic, and inviolable figure who looked like an empress, his eyes suddenly lit up!
