I Respected You As My Senior Brother; You Treat Me Like I'm An Idiot?

In Pill Hall.

The head of Pill Hall was listening to the head of Weapon Hall babbling on and on. The look on his face was beyond shocked.

"He's going to ascend to the celestial world?" Li Xian really couldn't believe his ears.

"It must obviously be exaggerated, but from the unusual phenomenon I saw the other day, I believe that the Sect Master's immediate student has at least reached the Nascent Soul stage. If I take a bold guess, maybe he's hit the Soul Splitting or Fusion stage," Perfected Huo Lian, the head of Weapon Hall said.

"Is the source reliable?" Li Xian asked.

"It doesn't matter. But think about it, even with the Sect Master's ascension to the celestial world soon, all of a sudden, he decided to accept a new immediate student. This means that Lu Changsheng is a true, peerless genius. You might say that the Sect Master simply had a sudden impulse to do this, but think about the comment made by the Sect Master of the Heaven Secrets Sect!

"Most importantly, I met Lu Changsheng once in person. Honestly speaking, the moment when I first saw him, I thought he was a celestial deity! His looks, his mannerisms, even the aura around him… It was simply amazing!" Perfected Huo Lian was rather excited.

"I knew it! No wonder Liu Qing tried to do everything he could just to put his son beside Lu Changsheng! I can't let him take all the advantages! My son has to stay around Lu Changsheng as well. One day, when Lu Changsheng manages to ascend to the celestial world, my son will probably also be influenced by his celestial air!" Li Xian felt very regretful, but he soon made up his mind.

"What are you waiting for? There are so many people asking to see the Sect Master right now, this even includes one of the Senior Elders! They are all trying to put their offspring close to Lu Changsheng. Hurry up or nothing will be left for you!" Perfected Huo Lian urged him.

Li Xian immediately sprang up to his feet and rushed for the Zenith Palace.

Meanwhile.

The Zenith Palace.

In the main palace.

Confusion seized Perfected Qing Yun's mind. All of a sudden, all of his Senior and Junior Brothers came to him and asked him to put their descendants close to his immediate student to learn cultivation.

Perfected Qing Yun didn't understand their intentions at all.

To learn cultivation? Lu Changsheng spent three years just to reach the Qi Refining stage. What could they learn from Lu Changsheng? How to become a slow cultivator?

What was wrong with these people?

"Senior Brother, we've already known each other for eight hundred years. Do you remember how I protected you from the Bloody Earth Devil's knife? You can still see the scar here! I never asked you for anything before. But today, I'm asking you to let my son cultivate after your student, Lu Changsheng! If you don't agree, I won't leave!" The head of Incantation Hall said aloud, unearthing this past history between them.

"Old Xu, shut your mouth! That's nothing! Senior Brother, do you remember that time fifteen hundred years ago? When we were still new disciples in the sect, you fell in love and went to the Palace of a Thousand Fairies. When Master found out, I took all the blame for you! I was the one who saved you, your seventh Junior Brother! I don't want anything from you, but you know that my biggest concern before I die is my son's future. You have to allow my son to learn the Dao after Lu Changsheng. Otherwise, I'll tell everyone what you did when you were young!" The head of Moral Hall said determinedly.

"Junior Brother, don't make such an unfounded attack on me! I know you're requesting me of something, but why can't you tell me calmly and peacefully?" Perfected Qing Yun's head buzzed. In most cases, he got along quite well with his Senior and Junior Brothers. However, all of them now had turned into completely different people, they showed no mercy on him.

"Sect Master, my Junior Brother, you don't have to say anything. I know you like my old jade board. I'll give it to you including the stones, but this is as long as you allow my son to stay around Lu Changsheng, even if he's a servant!"

"Shameless! A servant? Did you ever ask your son this?"

"Junior Brother Xu, since you've said this, then don't blame me for leaving you no chance. Remember many years ago? Our master left me an ancient mirror. Sect Master, my dear Senior Brother, I know you want it. I'll give it to you, as long as you allow my son to study after Changsheng. It's okay for my son to sweep the floor for Changsheng!"

The threats soon turned into offerings. And soon after, any semblance of a normal conversation turned into an argument. They had completely forgotten that they were Senior Cultivators right now. A disciple would definitely drop his chin if he saw this happening.

"Wait! Stop! Be quiet!" Perfected Qing Yun waved his hands. His formidable prowess immediately made everyone shut up.

"Tell me what happened first." erfected Qing Yun really couldn't understand what was going on. All of a sudden, his student became so popular among all the Sect Leaders here.

"Sect Master, please stop hiding it from us will you? Your student's a peerless genius in this world. Although this is just his third year in the sect, he's already reached the Soul Splitting stage. All we want is to make our children and descendants study after him! That's all!"

"This is true! As long as Changsheng agrees, we'll have no problem with it at all!"

"Senior Brother, to be honest, this is quite unfair. When our master decided to make you the Sect Master of the sect, we were totally fine with it. But now that you have such a peerless student, you're even hiding it from us! Your student already reached the Soul Splitting stage, and you're still keeping it a secret! You won't tell us the truth until he ascends to the celestial world, right?"

"He's right!"

"Junior Brother Qing Yun, when our master made you the Sect Master of the sect, I thought you were the most honest and upright man in the sect. But you're hiding such an important thing from your Senior Brother! If you tell us, then don't blame me for being merciless!"

"Right! We have to make this matter clear!"

The leaders of the sects were shouting at the top of their lungs.

Perfected Qing Yun was really speechless.

"Who told you all that Changsheng reached the Soul Splitting stage?" Perfected Qing Yun asked.

"Who told me this? I could tell with my own eyes!"

"I can't believe it, Sect Master. I respected you as my Senior Brother and yet you treat me like an idiot?"

"Can you please stop it already, Junior Brother?"

"The entire sect knows about it!"

"I wonder if Changsheng passed the heaven test…"

"Look at his aura. It's really possible."

Their imaginations had gone out of control.

Perfected Qing Yun needed some time to digest the information he just received.

Soul Splitting?

Tribulation Transcendence?

Wasn't Changsheng at the Qi Refining stage?

Wait!

A shocking insight suddenly occurred to Perfected Qing Yun.

He couldn't really see Lu Changsheng's cultivation level.

It was only Lu Changsheng who told him that he only reached the Qi Refining stage.

'But what if he was lying?' Perfected Qing Yun thought to himself.

Suddenly, he slapped his thigh as he figured it out.

His immediate student was hiding the truth from him! He was so immoral!

"Give me some time everyone. I'll go and find my student right now." Perfected Qing Yun quickly left the palace.

Meanwhile.

Lu Changsheng had no idea what was going on.

He just recently finished another brand new pill recipe.

The main character of the rumors was oblivious to what was happening and had a huge smile on his face right now.
