Chapter 28: Bai Yufeng

"Su Yang, come out to greet our Guest." Senior Wu used the communication jade slip he gave Su Yang shortly after Xue Zhen visited the Sect for the first time.

After wearing his mask, Su Yang left his room and went outside to meet this guest.

The moment Su Yang stepped outside his living quarters, he could see Senior Wu standing a few meters away with another individual standing beside him.

This individual possessed a striking appearance, characterized by his tall and slender frame, lustrous white hair cascading down his back, and piercing green eyes that held an undeniable charm.

Su Yang couldn't help but acknowledge the man's presence, who was undoubtedly the most handsome man he had ever encountered.

"This Junior greets Senior." Su Yang clasped his hands and respectfully bowed to the handsome man.

The man stepped forward and spoke with a gentle smile, "Hello, I am Bai Yufeng, a Swordmaster from Martial Heaven."

'Martial Heaven!' Su Yang was inwardly surprised to learn that this guest came from such a faraway place.

The Four Divine Heavens encompassed four distinct worlds of similar size, each separated by hundreds of millions of miles, requiring vast resources for inter-world travel. Su Yang presently dwelled within Celestial Heaven, the furthest world from Martial Heaven.

"Martial Heaven is renowned as a cultivator's paradise, distinguished by its fiercely competitive cultivation environment. It serves as the cradle for countless martial prodigies, who were either born from its midst or refined their skills within its boundaries. Amongst the Four Divine Heavens, it is ranked first in terms of martial prowess." Senior Wu gave a quick explanation about the world.

He continued, "During my journey seeking someone who can guide you, I accidentally stumbled upon Senior Bai, who happened to be a Sect Elder at the Divine Yang Sword Mountain, one of the top Sects in Martial Heaven."

Bai Yufeng nodded and said, "I just finished giving sword lectures at the Fiery Sword Hall as a Guest Lecturer and was leaving when I coincidentally overheard Elder Wu's conversation with the Fiery Sword Hall's Sect Leader about looking for someone knowledgeable about the Boundless Yang Constitution, so I stuck my curious nose into their business and ended up coming here."

He suddenly extended his hand toward Su Yang and asked, "Can I confirm whether you truly have the Boundless Yang Constitution? I am not calling you or Elder Wu a liar. I simply want to confirm it wasn't misdiagnosed."

"It's fine, I never intended to ask for money anyway," Bai Yufeng quickly said.

Senior Wu regained his spirit after hearing this.

"In return for my assistance, I want Su Yang to become a disciple at the Divine Yang Sword Mountain," said Bai Yufeng.

"W-what?!" Senior Wu exclaimed in a shocked voice, his face filled with worry.

However, before Senior Wu could utter another word, Bai Yufeng continued to speak, "Don't worry, I won't ask him to join the Divine Yang Sword Mountain immediately. I am not unreasonable enough to steal him from the Fleeting Sword Sect."

"T-then...?" Senior Wu swallowed nervously.

"The Divine Origin Realm—once he leaves the Seven Mortal Realms and enters the Five Divine Realms, he will have to become a disciple at the Divine Yang Sword Mountain for at least two thousand years. Whatever he decides to do afterward will be up to him, so he can either continue being a disciple at the Divine Yang Sword Mountain or return to the Fleeting Sword Sect," said Bai Yufeng.

He continued, "This should be very reasonable since the strongest individual in the Fleeting Sword Sect is only at the Divine Spirit Realm, so he'll have plenty of time here before leaving for two thousand years."

"T-this is..." Senior Wu immediately became silent to contemplate Bai Yufeng's offer.

On one hand, it would take hundreds of years for Su Yang to reach the Divine Origin Realm, but on the other hand, he intended to make Su Yang the next Sect Leader of the Fleeting Sword Sect, which wouldn't be possible if he had to leave for two thousand years and even become a disciple at another Sect.

"I don't need you to decide right now. I will give you seven days to speak to your disciple and whomever this may affect. When you have decided, you can find me at the pond that we passed on the way here." Bai Yufeng did not linger and flew away the very next moment.

Senior Wu turned to look at Su Yang with a perplexed expression on his face.

"What do you think of his offer, Disciple Su?" he asked in a solemn voice.
