“Brat, it’s good that you’re back because you’re the only one that can tame those little bastards. If you don’t, sooner or later they will suffer a loss.”
Gu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows, “How so?”
“It’s a different time now! After the tribulation had passed, the Immortal Dynasty was reestablished, and this isn’t even the most important thing, after the Reincarnation Storm, many great experts have reincarnated.”
“Are there many reincarnated experts in this world?”
“A lot, all of them say they are great immortal from the Heavenly World, for example, Immortal Hong Yu, Immortal, Yuan Yang, and I’ve heard there are even several Great Encompassing Golden Immortals out there, and even Immortal Monarchs.”
“Anyway, there are a lot of them, and the ones I’ve said are just the most famous. Who the hell knows how many of them have reincarnated into our world? That’s why I advise you to tell those little bastards to be more restrained.”
Gu Qingfeng drained his glass of wine in one go, got up and lazily stretched out a little before sighing, “Although Fatty Wang and the others are a bit sloppy, they are still very shrewd and know when they need to be more low-key. It’s impossible for them to suffer any losses so I’m not worried about them.”
“Also, I don’t plan to visit them.”
“Why?” Daoist Huode was puzzled.
“No particular reason, I’m just tired.”
Gu Qingfeng sat down again, closed his eyes, and patted his forehead, “I really feel tired…I used to spend all my days fighting and killing, be it on the Immortal Dao, Devil Dao, or the Heavenly Dao. I am really tired, I don’t want to live like that anymore, I want to live differently.”
“You want to live differently? In what sense?”
“I don’t know, I’ll just let nature take its course. Heavenly Dao stole everything from me, and although I managed to save my life, I’m very weak right now. I need to recuperate for a period of time, then I’ll think about it.”
“Recuperate? Heh, my sect might not be as impressive as your Bloodheaven Sect, but you’ll find everything you need here!”
Gu Qingfeng’s closed eyes opened a tiny bit and smiled, “Won’t it be troublesome for you?”
“Get lost! You’re still treating me like an outside?”
“Hahaha!”

Gu Qingfeng and Daoist Huode had been drinking and reminiscing about the past for three days and three nights.
While they’ve been happily talking, the Redcloud Sect had become very lively these last three days, with both the outer sect and the inner sects gossiping about Gu Qingfeng.
“Hey! Have you heard, it turns out that the guy who came with senior sister Ouyang that day is Young Master Bloodflame!”
“Yeah! I always thought Young Master Bloodflame was just someone invented by senior sister Ouyang, I didn’t expect him to be real.”
“It’s true, I’ve heard that when he was at the Superb Villa, he displayed the concept within Drunken at the Blue Sea with his bare hands. Even Grandmaster Wen Zhu called him a musical genius!
“Sigh, what a pity! An amazing musical genius has failed his Foundation Establishment… Although he was lucky and it gave him a mutant body, causing him to have a strong physique and extraordinary strength, in the end, it’s still a trash body that will not allow him to cultivate anymore!”
“That’s true. I heard he was expelled from his family and sect because he failed his Foundation Establishment and then came running to senior sister Ouyang to ask for help.”
“Senior sister Ouyang couldn’t bear that her sweetheart turned into a trash so she brought him to Elder Huode, hoping that he would have a method that could allow Young Master Bloodflame to recover.”
“Although Elder Huode’s cultivation base is profound, it’s simply impossible for him to have a method that can recover a mutant body produced by failing the Foundation Establishment.”
“Sigh! Senior sister Ouyang is really infatuated with him so he must be extremely heartbroken.”
“Yes! Senior sister Ouyang is beautiful, very kind-hearted, has an amazing aptitude, and a high cultivation base. She is my Goddess! It’s just that…how should I say this…if Young Master Bloodflame hadn’t failed his Foundation Establishment, I would’ve liked for them to become Dao companions, but since he failed, he is simply not worthy of senior sister Ouyang!”
“Everyone feels the same! But that Young Master Bloodflame sure is something! Why the hell did he come to senior sister Ouyang since he failed his Foundation Establishment? Can’t he see that he’s being just making troubles for her?”
“Right, don’t tell me he still wants to be her Dao companion? If she agrees, her life would be over, but if she doesn’t agree, everyone would say she is heartless! This Young Master Bloodflame is really despicable!”
“Sigh, I wonder what senior sister Ouyang is planning to do…”

In the early morning, within a garden inside the Redcloud Sect, a girl about seventeen years old was pacing back and forth with her arms folded. Although she was only wearing a simple white cultivation robe, she still couldn’t conceal her curvy and beautiful body. Right now, her exquisite face that needed no makeup had a very worried expression on it, and her eyebrows deeply frowned.
She was none other than Ouyang Ye.
This little girl was so depressed right now that she was on the verge of going crazy!
Initially, she asked Gu Qingfeng to impersonate Young Master Bloodflame just so she could fool Yun Hon and Ye Hui. After that, she just brought him to the Redcloud Sect as a form of repayment.
But never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that this matter would blow out overnight to this degree and the entire Redcloud Sect would be gossiping about her!
Everyone just said that Young Master Bloodflame was a musical genius who had failed his Foundation Establishment and was driven out of both his family and sect, then rushed over to her side for help, and she brought him and begged Elder Huode to help him recultivate.
My God!
Just what was happening?
How did it come to this?
She would not have cared if this was just the gossip of some disciples, but over the past three days, even some senior had come to talk to her about this. Some of them advised her that she was far too young to form a Dao companionship and she should be focusing on cultivation. Some even said that she should find a suitable partner for her because otherwise, things would become dangerous for both her and her companion.
Ouyang Ye wanted to cry, but no tears would come out.
Most importantly, after Gu Qingfeng left together with Elder Huode, it was as if he had disappeared! During the past three days, he had made several trips to Elder Huode’s residence but there was no one there.
“Damn it, where the hell did Master Huode take him!” Ouyang Ye was pacing back and forth in a hurry, not knowing how she should respond to the gossips.
At this moment, a voice resounded in her ears, “Disciple.”
“Huh?” Ouyang Ye was stunned and when she turned around she saw a beautiful woman heading towards her.
“M-master…” This beautiful woman was Ouyang Ye’s master, Daoist Fei Xue, and she was also a major deacon in the Redcloud Sect.
“Master, you…weren’t you supposed to be in seclusion? W-why did you come out? “
Looking at her master, Ouyang Ye was both surprised and a little bit nervous. She wondered whether her master had come out of her seclusion because she had heard about the gossip going around the sect. If that were the case, it would be extremely terrible. Taking a furtive glance at Daoist Fei Xue’s cold face, she became even more apprehensive.
Daoist Fei Xue let out a cold snort, and Ouyang Ye’s heart could not help but beat faster, and she secretly said, “I’m finished!”
“I originally thought that the Young Master Bloodflame that you always spoke of was just your invention, but I didn’t expect he was actually real…” Daoist Fei Xue had a bad look on her face and she was extremely solemn as she stared at Ouyang Ye, “It would’ve been no problem if he was a dragon among men, but since he failed his Foundation Establishment, why did you bring him into the sect?”
“Master, I…” Ouyang Ye didn’t even know how she should respond. Daoist Fei Xue was her mother’s close friend and she also had great respect for her.
“Did you know that bringing him to the sect would put in an unfavorable situation? Now the whole sect is talking about this matter, almost all the disciples know that the Young Master Bloodflame you brought back is the man you fell in love with at first sight. Moreover, what did you say at the Superb Villa? That you two will become Dao companions and start double cultivating?”
“Disciple, why are you so foolish? Don’t you know that your life would be finished if you double cultivated with someone that had failed his Foundation Establishment? Even if he was a dragon among men before, his cultivation road is now over.”
My God!
Ouyang Ye almost broke down and hurriedly said, “Master, things are not like this at all, that guy is not Young Master Bloodflame, he’s just I found to impersonate him, but I didn’t expect things to turn out like this…”
“Oh, my disciple… I’m an experienced person and I know what you’re thinking, but I advise you to give up on this childish love at first sight. It’s impossible for you two to have a good outcome.”
“Master, I-I am not lying! He really isn’t Young Master Bloodflame!”
No matter how Ouyang Ye explained it, Daoist Fei Xue didn’t believe it at all. In her opinion, her apprentice must’ve been afraid of people accusing that Young Master Bloodflame, so she lied to protect him. Daoist Fei Xue just shook her head helplessly and continued persuading.
“Disciple, do you think Elder Huode can really make get him back on the cultivation road? I’m telling you, it’s simply impossible! Even if Elder Huode’s formation attainments are high, they are still not high enough to let a person who had failed the Foundation Establishment cultivate again! Not to mention, that boy has a mutant body, even the supreme immortals in the Heavenly World would not be able to save him, so don’t delude yourself!”
“Master! He really isn’t Young Master Bloodflame!” Ouyang Ye was so anxious that she burst into tears.
She didn’t expect things to turn out this way. Not long ago, she was trying her hardest to make everyone believe that Young Master Bloodflame was real, but now when she said that he was fake, no one believed her!
“This is the end of this matter! In the meantime, just cultivate in seclusion and don’t go outside. As for that Young Master Bloodflame, I will take care of him once I finish my business!”
Looking at Ouyang Ye who was crouching on the ground with her hands covering her head, Daoist Fei Xue sighed and softly, “Disciple, you should not blame me for being heartless. I am just thinking about your future. You are still young now and should just focus on cultivation. Both your family and our sect has high hopes for you, so if you want to find a Dao companion, it should be someone suitable for you, a genius blessed by Heaven!”
Ouyang Ye was crouched on the ground with her hands covering her head, sobbing, “Master…he really isn’t-”
Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Daoist Fei Xue.
“Enough! It looks like that kid has really enchanted you just by play a song from the Sovereign! I always thought your aunt was exaggerating when she said playing the Sovereign’s songs could bewitch people, but it seems she was telling the truth! A damned brat who failed his Foundation Establishment had fascinated you so much!”
“Brat, it’s good that you’re back because you’re the only one that can tame those little bastards. If you don’t, sooner or later they will suffer a loss.”
Gu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows, “How so?”
