Chapter 2: Disciple Fuyao is incredibly fierce!

Refuse!

In a moment, numerous Saints surrounded Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan's mouth corner slightly rose, "I cannot refuse."

The Sect Leader's face instantly turned grim, "Lu Xuan, you're not worried that failing to recruit a disciple will get you expelled from the Great Dao Sect, are you?"

Lu Xuan said, "No."

The Sect Leader said, "I can amend the Great Dao Sect's rules for you; I specially permit you to remain Peak Master of Xuan Qing Feng regardless of whether you have disciples. So you no longer need to take Ji Fuyao as your disciple!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Xuan.

Now Lu Xuan should finally give up, right?

Lu Xuan gave a light smile, "I must take Ji Fuyao as my disciple!"

As these words left his mouth, Ji Fuyao's eyes flickered with divine radiance, her gaze toward Lu Xuan shifting slightly.

Numerous Peak Masters applied pressure, yet Lu Xuan did not yield!

She hides too many secrets; during the sect entrance examination she sealed them with an ancient secret art. The talent and strength she now displays are just right, all meant for the Great Dao Sect to see!

But if she were to become a disciple of another Saint, those secrets would likely be exposed!

Thinking of this, Ji Fuyao bowed to the Sect Leader and the others, then looked at Lu Xuan: "Sect Leader, all Peak Masters, my mind is made! Master, let's return to Xuan Qing Feng!"

Lu Xuan said, "Good."

Wait!

Everyone directly blocked Lu Xuan and Ji Fuyao: "Peak Master Lu, today Ji Fuyao cannot become your disciple no matter what!"

But Lu Xuan's attitude grew even firmer: "She must take me as her master!"

In an instant, Lu Xuan directly confronted the Sect Leader and the others!

A moment of silence.

The Sect Leader gave Lu Xuan a serious look and said solemnly, "Lu Xuan, Ji Fuyao is a once-in-a-millennium peerless genius of our sect; she will become the cornerstone of our sect for ten thousand years—this is no child's play! Your strength is inferior to even an Outer Sect disciple; how could you possibly teach her well?"

Everyone felt anguish and indignation, nodding in agreement.

They could not understand why Lu Xuan insisted on taking Ji Fuyao as his disciple.

Lu Xuan solemnly said, "Sect Leader, who says I cannot teach well?"

The Sect Leader laughed heartily, "If that's the case, I won't make things difficult for you. Dare to make a bet? In one month, there will be the Inner Sect Competition; if Ji Fuyao cannot obtain first place, then you will no longer be her master, and she will join another Spirit Peak!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyao immediately sent a mental message to Lu Xuan: "Don't agree! Those True Transmission Disciples are all at the Profound Emperor Realm or above; I am merely a Great Xuan King, and I have no absolute confidence of taking first place within a month!"

Lu Xuan ignored her, speaking with full confidence: "Very well! In one month, I will have Ji Fuyao suppress all the younger generation of the Great Dao Sect!"

His voice fell!

Everyone was stunned, looking at Lu Xuan in disbelief.

Really?

Who gave you that confidence!

Ji Fuyao's snowy neck tilted slightly, divine radiance surged in her eyes as she glared at Lu Xuan, her chest heaving with anger, her face flushed red.

The Sect Leader and the others could hardly keep from laughing, "Excellent! Soon! Peak Master Lu, since you're so confident, how about I add some more difficulty?"

Lu Xuan remained calm and composed, spreading his hands and saying, "I don't care!"

The Sect Leader laughed, "Within this month, Ji Fuyao may only use the cultivation resources of Xuan Qing Feng; she must not use any other cultivation resources of the Great Dao Sect!"

"All right!" Lu Xuan gave a light smile, looking at Ji Fuyao: "Disciple, I am very confident—how about you?"

Ah!

Ji Fuyao collapsed outright, biting her tender lip, her chest heaving as she stomped her feet on the ground in anger.

She was so angry she wanted to hit someone!

She somewhat regretted taking Lu Xuan as her master.

Obviously this was a trap set by the Sect Leader, but Lu Xuan foolishly fell for it!

During this month, the Sect Leader will surely give those True Transmission Disciples many opportunities; by then she will likely be even less of a match!

Ji Fuyao wanted to cry but had no tears.

Yet the Sect Leader and the others could not suppress the corners of their mouths.

Lu Xuan looked at Ji Fuyao: "Ji Fuyao, come back with me to Xuan Qing Feng."

Ji Fuyao's eyes flickered with flames; beneath her scarlet-red long dress, her chest heaved, her mindset already broken, she could only silently follow Lu Xuan away.

Watching Lu Xuan's back, a gray-robed disciple muttered quietly, "Hilarious! Although Ji Fuyao is a genius, I think her brain isn't quite right—actually choosing a waste as a master..."

He hadn't finished speaking when Ji Fuyao suddenly vanished from the spot, appearing directly before the gray-robed disciple, her gaze dark and cold, she slowly spoke.

"What did you say?"

Ji Fuyao's anger had already reached its peak, with no outlet, and now it directly spiraled out of control.

Boom!

Ji Fuyao's body erupted with a scorching divine radiance, violent power surging, terrifying pressure like an abyss and sea, pouring directly onto the gray-robed disciple.

The gray-robed disciple's face turned pale with shock; Ji Fuyao's strength completely overwhelmed him, and in a breath he was suppressed to kneel on the ground, bleeding all over, unable to move.

Seeing this, the Sect Leader and the others were all stunned.

Lu Xuan also froze.

His disciple Ji Fuyao is incredibly fierce!

At that moment, another black-robed youth angrily said, "Ji Fuyao, in front of everyone, are you trying to kill a fellow disciple..."

He hadn't finished speaking when Ji Fuyao extended her slender jade hand, a terrifying power pressing down on the black-robed youth's head.

Ji Fuyao's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, "You talk too much; you should kneel as well!"

Thud!

The black-robed youth was directly suppressed and knelt on the ground, utterly unable to resist!

For a moment, everyone stared at each other.

Even the Sect Master felt shocked; this Ji Fuyao is so overbearing!

In front of so many people, you actually dare to act like this?

Aren't you afraid they'll suppress her?!

Lu Xuan sighed inwardly, truly worthy of being the Fuyao Empress, her aura is unmatched.

Suddenly, several outer sect elders rushed out, pointing at Ji Fuyao and angrily said, "Ji Fuyao! Remember, you are not yet an official disciple of the Grand Dao Sect! With the Sect Master present, how dare you act so arrogantly?"

Ji Fuyao said nothing, her slender jade hand spread out, and a divine radiance surged forth like a vast sea, directly falling upon the heads of those outer sect elders.

"Then everyone, kneel down!"

The outer sect elders shouted, gritted their teeth, spiritual energy surging on their bodies, trying to resist.

But it was useless!

Though they were all in the Great Xuan King Realm, Ji Fuyao completely towered over them!

Thud!

Thud!

In the span of a breath, those outer sect elders knelt on the ground in utter humiliation.

Seeing this scene, everyone present was stunned.

Ji Fuyao's strength is too great!

The Sect Master's gaze was deep, not startled but pleased.

It seems that during the entrance examination, Ji Fuyao still held back somewhat.

For a moment, the field was filled with kneeling figures; under Ji Fuyao's pressure, everyone felt as if a mighty mountain weighed upon their heads, unable to lift them, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Completely overwhelming!

The faces of the outer sect elders flushed with shame; to kneel before a disciple in front of so many people was utterly humiliating!

The Grand Dao Sect has never seen such a situation before!

At this moment, Ji Fuyao wore a scarlet-fire colored long robe, her face absolutely beautiful and delicate, yet icy cold; a faint divine radiance emanated from her, a obscure power constantly circulating, making her appear like a goddess descending to the mortal realm, lofty and looking down upon all beings.

Ji Fuyao swept her gaze over the suppressed crowd and said lightly, "How I choose is my own affair; it's not for you to recklessly comment on!"

Her voice fell!

Many elders and disciples were all startled.

Lu Xuan, however, gave a faint smile, greatly admiring Ji Fuyao.

Everyone looked at Lu Xuan; the smile on his face made them feel like a petty man gloating, and they all despised him.

At this moment, the Sect Master slowly stepped forward.

By now, he had to put an end to this farce!

You must know, Ji Fuyao triggered the resonance of the Grand Dao Bell and also gained the Patriarch's attention; the Patriarch repeatedly stressed that she must be taken into the Grand Dao Sect!

Therefore, we must make Ji Fuyao feel a sense of belonging to the Grand Dao Sect!

He had seen what just happened; that outer sect disciple was indeed talkative, and happened to provoke Ji Fuyao's anger.

The Sect Master revealed a gentle smile, walking toward Ji Fuyao, "Fuyao, alright, alright. Let this matter pass as is. For this month, you will temporarily follow Lu Xuan in cultivation; we will not interfere. Are you satisfied?"

On Ji Fuyao's absolutely beautiful visage, her brows relaxed, she gave a slight nod, "There is still one matter."

The Sect Master smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Ji Fuyao glanced at the elders and disciples kneeling on the ground, "Sect Master, I don't like it when people recklessly comment on me... and my Master."

The Sect Master immediately rebuked, "Apologize to Fuyao and Lu Peak Master! From now on, no one is allowed to recklessly comment on Lu Peak Master and Fuyao!"

Upon hearing this, many elders and disciples trembled, kneeling on the ground to apologize to Lu Xuan.

"Ji Fuyao... Lu Peak Master, sorry, I was wrong..."

"I won't do it again..."

"..."

Seeing this, Ji Fuyao withdrew her pressure, bowed slightly to the Sect Master, "Thank you."

Then Ji Fuyao walked toward Lu Xuan, "Master, let's go back."

The Sect Master reminded, "Fuyao, don't forget to go to the Grand Dao Hall to collect your examination rewards and complete your sect registration."

Ji Fuyao said, "Okay, Sect Master."

Lu Xuan led Ji Fuyao slowly away.

Watching the two's backs, the elders and disciples finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, they had all been intimidated by Ji Fuyao!

But the Sect Master's attitude is also thought-provoking; obviously, the Sect Master highly values Ji Fuyao!

Soon, everyone cast aside the recent disturbance and continued to join the various Spirit Peaks.

At the same time, Lu Xuan brought Ji Fuyao up the mountain.

Lu Xuan gave a faint smile, "Disciple, you did well just now."

Ji Fuyao's beautiful eyes slightly furrowed, "Huh?"

How does this "disciple" roll off the tongue so smoothly?

Her fire flared up again!

She had already sent a mental transmission to Lu Xuan telling him to reject the bet, but he wouldn't listen!

Lu Xuan wouldn't really consider himself as Master, would he!

Ji Fuyao's starry eyes glittered like blazing flames, "Why did you agree to the Sect Master just now? Are you that confident in me?"

Lu Xuan smiled and said, "No. I'm very confident in myself. Believe me, within a month, I'll make you the top young generation of the Great Dao Sect!"

Ji Fuyao's face was full of question marks, "???"

She no longer wanted to speak to Lu Xuan.

She was thinking about what just happened when she attacked those few outer sect elders and disciples.

The reason she just attacked was, on one hand, to establish her authority, and on the other hand, to test the Great Dao Sect's attitude toward a peerless genius like her!

The result made her very satisfied.

It seems the Great Dao Sect will indeed give geniuses some privileges!

Ji Fuyao knew that she had actually triggered the resonance of the Great Dao Sect's supreme treasure, the Great Dao Bell, and it was likely already being watched by a figure of patriarch level.

She knew her own worth.

She was using the Great Dao Sect, and the Great Dao Sect was likewise using her!

Thinking of this, Ji Fuyao's gaze shifted as she looked at Lu Xuan, "This month, I know how I should cultivate! But I also hope you can improve your own cultivation! Master!"

The word "Master" was almost spoken by Ji Fuyao through gritted teeth.

Lu Xuan blinked slightly.

Ah?

How did the disciple suddenly start lecturing the master!

This won't do!

Who is master and who is disciple, this seniority must not be messed up!

But Lu Xuan also didn't refute; although he currently has little influence, once the system is fully activated, he will let Ji Fuyao know that choosing him as master is the best decision she could make in her life!

Not long after.

Lu Xuan and Ji Fuyao stepped onto Xuan Qing Feng.

Xuan Qing Feng is rich in spiritual energy and beautiful scenery; on the mountain top hangs a waterfall, and as the early sun rises, under the sunlight, Xuan Qing Feng rises a veil of mist, looking extremely splendid.

Ji Fuyao selected a cave dwelling for herself and then set up some seals and restrictions.

Then she went to Lu Xuan's cave dwelling and handed him a jade slip: "This jade slip contains some of my cultivation insights. I know your talent is mediocre, but don't give up on yourself; as my master, I hope you also strive!"

Lu Xuan took the jade slip, somewhat speechless.

This has actually turned the heavens upside down?

The disciple is instructing the master?

No way! No way!

Ji Fuyao said, "Master, I'll first go to the Great Dao Hall to collect the assessment rewards and complete the enrollment procedures. I hope you can start cultivating."

Lu Xuan nodded, "Alright."

Ji Fuyao had just left.

The system's voice slowly sounded.

"Ding! The Invincible Disciple System has finished loading!"

Lu Xuan immediately sprang up from the bed and hurried to check the system!
