Gu Qingfeng originally did not intend to meet Daoist Flying Snow, but he did not expect that Tan Siru would personally come to talk about Ouyang Ye.
Gu Qingfeng did not know what happened to the little girl, so he decided to go and take a look. He followed Tan Siru to a garden full of birds and fragrant flowers. When he walked into the hall, he saw a seemingly graceful and luxurious woman standing in front of the bookshelf and carefully flipping through the books.
"Master, he is that Childe Chiyan Gu Qingfeng."
Tan Siru reported, then glanced at Gu Qingfeng with a sneer and silently retreated to the side.
Daoist Flying Snow did not respond. She did not even look at Gu Qingfeng. She continued to flip through the books and said coldly.
"I have heard about the matter between you and my disciple."
"I hope you can leave her and break off this ridiculous and childish love at first sight."
"I don't know whether you are a dragon among men or not, and I don't want to know how good your musical attainments are. I don't know, and I don't want to know what your family background is like. I have no interest at all."
"I asked you to come here today just to let you understand a fact. You are not worthy of my disciple."
Gu Qingfeng didn't say anything. He only felt that it was a little funny because this matter was fake from the start. He didn't know what was going on with the little girl, so he couldn't respond. He could only listen with interest.
"Maybe you are not convinced and think that you failed to build your foundation, so I said that you are not worthy of my disciple. If you really think so, then you are gravely mistaken. I said that you are not worthy of my disciple, but it has nothing to do with your failure to build your foundation. Even if you did not fail to build your foundation, you are still not worthy of my disciple."
"My disciple's family background is extraordinary. It is beyond your reach and beyond your imagination."
"Her status is even more out of your league."
"And her future Taoist companion will definitely be a dragon among men."
"Don't blame me for being ruthless. The reality is so cruel. If you are not worthy, then you are not worthy."
"I also know the purpose of you coming to Yunxia School. You just want to use my disciple's relationship to ask Elder Huo De to help you rebuild your foundation."
"However, I advise you to give up this idea. Although it is not impossible to rebuild your foundation after failing to build your foundation, this possibility is very small."
"Of course, if you insist, I will not drive you away. After all, it is my disciple who brought you here, and I don't want her to be sad."
"But from today onwards, you must cut off all contact with my disciple."
"Remember, this isn't a discussion, nor is it persuasion. It's a warning, and only once."
"If I find out that you still have any contact with my disciple, I will make you regret being born to this world."
"Siru, send him away."
From the beginning to the end, Master Feixue did not raise her head to look at Gu Qingfeng. She had been focused on reading the book. That kind of contempt was simply arrogant to the bone. She did not even give Gu Qingfeng a chance to speak. As she said, this was not a negotiation or persuasion, but a warning. She would only warn him once.
After a while, Tan Siru came back and asked, "Master, why didn't you drive him away directly?"
Tan Siru had lost face in the Red Leaves Valley and had always wanted to take revenge. In Yunxia School, Gu Qingfeng was protected by Elder Huo De. Even the Li family could not do anything to him. If Gu Qingfeng left, the Li family would definitely kill Gu Qingfeng. She could also take revenge by the way. But she did not expect that her master would allow Gu Qingfeng to stay.
"I have already said that since he was brought here by Yaye, driving him away would definitely affect Yaye's emotions and affect her cultivation. The gains would not make up for the losses."
Master Feixue replied expressionlessly, "Moreover, Guangyuan was rejected by Elder Huo De previously. This is enough to show that this person is very important to Elder Huo De. Why should I offend Huo De over such a small matter?"
Tan Siru replied with an "Oh". Just when she was about to speak, Master Feixue's cold voice suddenly sounded.
"One more thing. In the future, don't interfere with Yaye's private matters."
"Private matters? Master, I have never interfered with Junior Sister's private matters. "
"Hmph!" Master Feixue coldly snorted and raised her head. Her pair of cold eyes stared at Tan Siru and scolded, "Do you really think that I don't know how much you have secretly received from Li Sen?"
"Master!" Tan Siru was so frightened that her expression changed greatly. She immediately knelt down and explained, "I … did it … for Junior Sister's sake. I hope that she can find a good home. After all, Li Sen is the young master of the Li Family …"
As she was speaking, Master Feixue interrupted her and said with disdain, "So what if he is from the Li Family? Not to mention Li Sen, even his brothers are not worthy of Yaye. "
Li Sen's brothers were all outstanding disciples of the Yunxia School. One of them was a direct disciple, while the other was the chief disciple of the Twelve Academies. Tan Siru could not understand what exactly was so important about Ouyang Ye that her master valued so much.
"This matter ends here. I have already found an excellent Dao companion for Yaye."
"May I know who Master's Dao companion is …"
"It is the chief disciple of our Yunxia School, Zhong Tianying!"
Hearing the name Zhong Tianying, Tan Siru was startled. She knew Zhong Tianying. Not only did she know him, but she also had a crush on him. To be exact, many female disciples of the Yunxia School worshipped and admired Zhong Tianying. This was because his family background, aptitude, and cultivation were all enviable. Most importantly, he was also a popular candidate for the position of Prime Disciple. Whoever became his Dao companion could become the wife of the head of the Yunxia School in the future.
...
On the way back, Gu Qingfeng strolled around the surrounding scenery while eating the Red Leaf Fruit. It was as if he was not affected by Master Feixue's words at all.
Indeed.
This matter was fake to begin with. How could it be affected?
At the very least, even if it was true, he could understand it.
Any master would want their disciple to find someone with a good family background and good aptitude. After all, finding a Dao companion was a lifelong thing. Finding someone with a good family background and aptitude would be helpful to both their cultivations. On the other hand, if they found someone with a bad family background and aptitude, not only would it not be helpful to their cultivations, it would also be a burden to them.
The only thing that made him feel helpless was that Ouyang Ye did not explain it to him.
Gu Qingfeng thought that it would be better to find a time to let that girl explain it to him. He did not want any misunderstandings to arise.
Back at the Hidden Spirit Garden in the back mountain.
Wang Dashan stood at the door as if he was anxiously waiting for something. When he saw Gu Qingfeng, Wang Dashan quickly ran over.
"Young Master, you are finally back."
"What happened?"
"Great Deacon Fei has been waiting for you for a long time."
Great Deacon Fei?
Gu Qingfeng was puzzled. What day was it today? Why were there so many people looking for him? Just as he was puzzled, a fat man walked out of the Hidden Spirit Garden.
It was really a fat man, a round fat man. His face was full of fat, his face was oily, and he had a small braid. He had a smiling face. When he saw Gu Qingfeng, the fat man ran over and bowed. He stuck his head out and asked politely, "Are you Childe Chiyan?"
"You are?"
"Your humble servant is Féquy. Old Master Huo De should have mentioned me to you, right?"
Féquy?
That sounded familiar.
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that old man Huo De did mention this name. He said that Féquy was one of them and that he would arrange everything for the examination.
"I remember now. Huo De did mention you to me."
"Hehe, that's right. Young Master, the old man has already told me about you. Let's walk and talk."
"Oh?"
Gu Qingfeng was puzzled. He asked, "What did Huo De say to you?"
"I told you everything."
"Everything?" Gu Qingfeng was rather surprised. Could it be that the old man had exposed my identity? He asked, "Do you know who I am?"
"Aren't you Childe Chiyan?"
"And then?"
"And then?" The fat man called Féquy was stunned. He said, "What then? That's all … The old man said that you are a young master and asked us to serve you."
"So it's like that …"
Gu Qingfeng was shocked. He thought that old man Huo De had sold him out.
"Young Master, when is it convenient? Let's settle this matter first."
"Are you talking about the assessment?"
"Yes, Young Master. The old man has already explained the plan to me in detail. Now that Young Master is an outer sect disciple, we can directly participate in the inner sect assessment."
"Outer sect disciple? When did I become an outer sect disciple? Didn't they say that I still have to take the assessment? "
"Young Master, it's like this. Yunxia School is not that strict when it comes to recruiting outer sect disciples. Those with excellent spiritual roots do not need to take the assessment. Only those with ordinary spiritual roots need to take the assessment. Those who do not pass the assessment can become outer sect disciples through connections and some benefits … So … after the old man told me, I got it done for you three days ago …"
"So it's like that … It seems that money is useful at all times!"
Thinking back to the time when he passed the entrance examination, he was rejected because his spirit root was not good enough. Although he could have used his connections to get in, the key point was, as an orphan, how could Gu Qingfeng have any connections? What red packets could he give?
Just as he was sighing, Gu Qingfeng suddenly realized that something was amiss.
"What did you say? You got it done for me three days ago?"
"Yes! After the old man told me three days ago, I got it done for you quickly. You are already an outer sect disciple of Yunxia School. "
Three days ago?
Gu Qingfeng thought carefully. He had just agreed to help yesterday, but Huo De had already started planning for this three days ago.
In other words, this old man had already expected him to agree.
Damn it!
This old man is playing dirty!
"Young Master, what's wrong?" Féquy kept bowing and spoke politely. He asked carefully, "Is there a problem?"
"No, it's fine as long as it's done. Since you are already an outer sect disciple, I remember Huo De said that you are going to compete for the chief disciple position of the Twelve Outer Sect Courtyards?"
"Young Master, the chief disciple position of the Twelve Outer Sect Courtyards has always been held by inner sect disciples. Therefore, if you want to become the chief disciple of the Twelve Outer Sect Courtyards, you must be an inner sect disciple."
"Is that so … Okay, tell me about the inner sect assessment."
"The inner sect assessment of Yunxia School is very strict. Every outer sect disciple has to be personally checked by the five elders, Rende, Ziheng, and Feixue …"
