35: The apprentice is not easy to lead, and Master Ming is in trouble again!
Chapter 35: A Difficult Disciple, Old Ming is Troubled Again!
This was also Fang Chen's biggest question; if Lin Luowei had contact with Blood Demon Old Ancestor.
Then Lin Luowei should know who Xiao Yunting's father is, and she wouldn't need to come and ask him.
Because in the original novel, Blood Demon Old Ancestor specifically spread this news because he valued Lin Luowei's identity.
Lin Luowei's identity was not low; as a Disciple of the Yuntian Holy Lord of Cloud Heaven Holy Land, her status in the Holy Land was second only to Fang Chen.
Moreover, backed by Cloud Heaven Holy Land, if anything happened, Cloud Heaven Holy Land would not stand idly by.
It was just that Blood Demon Old Ancestor did not expect Lin Luowei to not rely on Cloud Heaven Holy Land at all.
Besides her own unwillingness, there was another reason: the Yuntian Holy Lord was absent from the Holy Land for many years, like a Dragon whose head is seen but not its tail.
Even her Disciple found it difficult to meet her.
"So who exactly is it?"
"Is it Heavenly God Ji?"
"Or someone else…"
Fang Chen couldn't figure out who made Lin Luowei come and ask him.
In the original novel, Fang Chen at this time knew the identity of Xiao Yunting's father.
Also, for Lin Luowei's sake, Fang Chen had been tracing the whereabouts of Xiao Yunting's father.
"If there's an Opportunity, I must ask Lin Luowei clearly."
Fang Chen thought to himself.
This question had been bothering him, making him very eager to understand it.
"Blood Demon Old Ancestor!"
Lin Luowei returned to her residence, muttering to herself.
Although she didn't find out who Xiao Yunting's father was this time, she now had a direction for her investigation.
As long as she found this Blood Demon Old Ancestor, she would surely know who Xiao Yunting's father was from him.
After knowing the identity of her enemy, she would have a chance to take revenge.
"However, finding this Blood Demon Old Ancestor is still very difficult."
Lin Luowei couldn't help but frown.
Blood Demon Old Ancestor was notoriously troublesome, skilled in various methods of concealing his Qi.
He could still live freely under the combined pursuit of many major forces, which showed his formidable power.
And Blood Demon Old Ancestor, he was a Saint Realm Expert.
Moreover, he was not an ordinary Saint Realm Expert; a Saint Realm Expert who could escape from the hands of many Saint Realm Experts, his methods were evident.
"But there's no other way; I can only start with this Blood Demon Old Ancestor."
Lin Luowei's gaze became resolute.
Although the identity of her enemy was unknown, she had a direction.
As long as she found this Blood Demon Old Ancestor, it was highly likely she would know who her enemy was.
After that day, Lin Luowei never went to Holy Spirit Peak again, which allowed Fang Chen to enjoy his slacking off and lying flat.
As time passed, the annual Holy Land Competition of Cloud Heaven Holy Land arrived.
Both Outer Sect Disciple and Inner Sect Disciple could participate in this Holy Land Competition.
If one shone brightly and stood out in this Competition, they would likely be chosen by the Inner Sect, thereby changing their life.
During this period, Disciples who had undergone a year of tempering were eager to show their brilliance and make a name for themselves in the Holy Land Competition.
As the Holy Land Competition was approaching, the Holy Land also became lively.
Disciples returned to the Holy Land from various places to prepare for this Holy Land Competition.
Every day, countless Disciples returned, and among them, a dust-covered, gloomy-faced Disciple stopped at the mountain gate, gazing at the eternal stone tablet, and murmured:
"I'm back. This time, I will surely make a name for myself and become a Core Disciple in the Holy Land!"
"Thus competing with Fang Chen for the Saint position!"
After several months of training, Xiao Yunting encountered several crises and also obtained great Opportunities.
In these few months, his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, climbing at an unimaginable speed.
Perhaps the earlier setbacks were too great, causing Xiao Yunting to resolve to desperately improve his strength, thereby causing his cultivation to advance rapidly.
Now he had already reached the Divine Origin Realm!
Directly crossing from the third Realm to the fifth Realm, a total of two major Realms were elevated.
Such a speed was unimaginable for Xiao Yunting.
Such rapid progress was not because Xiao Yunting's talent was so powerful, but because he had obtained many Opportunities.
As a Child of Luck, blessed by Heaven, having such Opportunities was only natural.
"Revered Master, if I make a name for myself in the Holy Land Competition, do you think I should tell the Elders of the Holy Land that I want to challenge Fang Chen for the Saint position? Do you think those Elders will agree?"
Xiao Yunting asked.
Old Ming's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.
This was bad; this guy's Heart-Nature hadn't changed at all, and he felt so tired.
"No, absolutely don't do that at this time. You still have a big gap with Cloud Heaven Holy Son. Doing that now is unwise."
"Even if you want to do that, wait until the gap between you two has narrowed."
Divine Origin Realm to challenge Enlightenment Realm Ninth Heaven.
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
Even if you want to die, don't drag me into it.
"Disciple, your current strength is indeed not as good as Fang Chen's. For now, you must avoid his sharp edge."
"When you are strong enough, then make a name for yourself and defeat Fang Chen!"
"Although I was not familiar with Cloud Heaven Holy Land before, major forces like this primarily value strength and talent."
"If you can defeat Fang Chen in these two aspects, you are enough to replace him and become the Saint of Cloud Heaven Holy Land."
"Throughout the long years, there have been countless examples of Saints being replaced. You don't need to rush."
Old Ming earnestly persuaded him.
He was truly afraid that Xiao Yunting would be overly confident and declare in public that he wanted to challenge Fang Chen and replace him as Saint.
If he did that, it would be a purely brainless act. Even if Fang Chen didn't do anything to him, he would become the laughingstock of the entire Holy Land.
He understood this Disciple very well; he was a self-important person, how could he endure such mockery from others?
He could imagine that if Xiao Yunting did that, he would inevitably fall out with many Disciples of Cloud Heaven Holy Land, which was not a good thing.
To replace Fang Chen, defeating Fang Chen was inevitable, and at the same time, he had to establish his prestige.
If he had a bad reputation in Cloud Heaven Holy Land and no high-ranking officials came out to help him, even if he defeated Fang Chen, he would not be able to replace the Saint position, and would instead be ostracized.
As an experienced person, Old Ming naturally understood human relations.
"Revered Master, I understand."
Xiao Yunting couldn't help but sigh, his face full of helplessness.
Hearing the unwillingness in Xiao Yunting's voice made Old Ming even more speechless.
You understand nothing!
It always goes in one ear and out the other.
This was also this Disciple's Heart-Nature; how could he not understand it?
He always spoke well, but he couldn't help but act every time.
"I hope you truly understand."
Old Ming sighed.
Ever since he had this Disciple, he had to be both a father and a mother, feeling very tired.
It also made him understand the difficulties of being a parent, especially with a very rebellious child, which was even more difficult.
