Golden Core, The Former Sect Master’s Fall _1

“Alright, but do we know which way to go?”

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

After all, there was still quite a distance from the Yunwu Mountains to the headquarters of the Immortal Mist Sect, at least several thousand kilometers.

“We have to go back to Misty Cloud City first.’

“Then we will take a flying boat back to the Immortal Mist Sect.”

“We can’t take a flying boat in the Yunwu Mountains because there are too many beasts here which can easily disturb the third-stage beasts.

Foundation Establishment elder Ren Hui explained.

When they entered the Yunwu Mountains, they entered on foot.

After all, the entire Yunwu Mountains are covered in clouds and mist, and if they take a flying boat, they could easily get lost.

Or worse, accidentally break into a second-stage monster’s nest – they would be done for.

“Alright.”

Hearing this, Zhou Sui nodded.

Ji Bingyu and the others quickly packed up their belongings and left the valley where they had lived for over a year. They were off to the Immortal Mist Sect to start a new life.

To be honest, he was also looking forward to going to the Immortal Mist Sect.

He wondered what the legendary Golden Core Sect was really like.

This was the lifelong dream of his previous life, as well as the dreams of countless loose cultivators.

But he had achieved it so easily – although, not through official channels.

He was only able to enter the sect because he married the Sect Master of the Immortal Mist Sect.

I guess you could say he got in through the back door.

At this moment, at the headquarters of the Immortal Mist Sect, on Immortal

Mist Peak.

An old man in a white robe lay weakly on a bed, barely breathing. He was Leng

Chan, the former Sect Master of the Immortal Mist Sect.

And he was also Leng Yuexi’s father.

On the surface, the Immortal Mist Sect won a great victory in the sect war, but in reality, Leng Chan was severely injured.

Added to his old age, he was basically on his death bed.

Not only Leng Chan, but also Elder Yuan Chen, the supreme elder of the Immortal Mist Sect, had died of old age.

Now, only Leng Yuexi, a Golden Core Master, remained in the entire Immortal Mist Sect.

Frankly, if it wasn’t for Leng Yuexi’s promotion to the Golden Core stage, the once-great Immortal Mist Sect would be leaderless and might disappear in the river of history.

“Yuexi, do you hate me for not saving you?”

Leng Chan looked at his daughter.

“I do.”

Leng Yuexi answered in a calm voice without hesitation.

“Good, true to my daughter, who dare to act and speak straightforwardly. You have a right to hate me.”

“But I did everything for our sect, the Immortal Mist Sect. If I had tried to save you, the sect would have ended. Therefore, I have no regrets.

“Fortunately, you carry great luck. Not only did you survive a great disaster, but you also advanced to the Golden Core stage. This could be considered the Sect’s fortune.”

“It’s just a pity that I’m about to die, so you won’t have much time to hate me.

Leng Chan smiled freely.

When a person is about to die, they often gain a greater understanding of the world.

Even if his own daughter resented him, he didn’t care. When a person is dead, everything is void.

Hearing this, Leng Yuexi remained expressionless, still looking silently at her father, without saying a word.

“By the way, after I die, don’t announce my death. Just say I’m in closed-door cultivation.”

“After all, it’s very common for Golden Core cultivators to retreat for a few

decades.”

“Having two Golden Cores is better than one for the Immortal Mist Sect, and it

can deter other sects.”

“As for announcing the death of Supreme Elder Yuan Chen, it doesn’t matter.” “Anyway, he lived long enough, and his death now won’t be surprising.” “And our sect having two Golden Core Masters will reassure sects like the Qingmu Sect and the Danding Faction, and won’t pose too big a threat to them, allowing us to survive.”

Leng Chan kept talking, preparing for the aftermath.

“Okay.”

Leng Yuexi nodded.

“By the way, is that man, the one that Elder Ren Hui is to escort to the

Immortal Mist Sect, truly your partner?”

“Is he reliable?”

Leng Chan shifted the subject abruptly to bring up this matter. Since the man was his daughter’s partner, he couldn’t not care about him. He nurtured his daughter for many years, only for another man to take her away. His feelings were complicated.

“Yes, he’s reliable. He’s much more reliable than you, father.”

“The reason I could cure the poison in my body was all because of him.”

“Even my successful Core Formation was thanks to him.

“Without him, I might not have been able to come back this time.’ Listening to her father bring up Zhou Sui, Leng Yuexi’s expression softened considerably, lacking the coldness she previously had.

Her heart raced as she was filled with warm emotions.

After all, it had been a month since she had seen him, and she missed him immensely.

“Good, reliability is crucial when choosing a partner.”

“Your judgement has always been trustworthy.”

“It’s just a pity I won’t live to see your partner.

Leng Chan expressed regret, but also felt relieved.

Even though someone else took his ‘prized cabbage’ that he’d been raising for many years, observing his daughter’s expression, it seemed like she truly loved her partner. That was all that mattered.

Of course, he had heard that the man was just a Qi Cultivator.

But what of it?

A Golden Core male cultivator could marry many Qi Cultivation female cultivators, even Foundation Establishment female cultivators.

So, a Golden Core female cultivator could do the same thing.

If she was not satisfied later, she could directly kick him out.

After all, being a prestigious Golden Core Master, marrying multiple faces, wasn’t it an easy task?!

In the end, in the cultivation world, cultivation and power are of the utmost importance.

As long as you have strong power, you can do whatever you want.

Bang-

Then, at that moment, Leng Chan’s head tilted and he fell onto the bed, his breath rapidly fading.

It was clear that after saying all this, he used up his last breath.

After making all his final arrangements, he died.

“Father, rest in peace.”

Sensing her father’s complete fall, Leng Yuexi’s eyes filled with complex emotions. She said nothing, not knowing what to say.

Although she indeed resented her father’s ruthlessness, she also understood her father’s actions.

But anyway, all debts are settled when someone dies.

Her father was dead. What had happened before didn’t need to be discussed anymore.

Of course, she also didn’t feel too sad.

Her father had lived for over four hundred years, a time even longer than a secular dynasty’s life span.

He had enjoyed all the world’s riches, his life was not in vain.

From a certain perspective, you could even say this was a cause for celebration. Whoosh!

Thinking this, Leng Yuexi waved her hand, placing her father’s body into the coffin that had been prepared beforehand, then placed it in his cave residence. After all, she needed to maintain the illusion that her father was still in closed-door cultivation.

If other sects found out that the Immortal Mist Sect now only had her, a lone Golden Core cultivator, they might harbor ill intentions, causing turmoil in the Immortal Mist Sect.

Although she didn’t know how long she could maintain this secret, she should be able to for several decades at least.

By then, her cultivation would have improved even more, and she wouldn’t need to worry about anything else..
