379: Who is your teacher?

Duanmu Yu wore a look of regret and whispered to himself, "I was even thinking of letting you go to the ancestral grounds!"

As the Sect Master of the Flying Feather Holy Sect, Duanmu Yu was naturally no fool.

Lin Ye becoming the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect was an earth-shattering event for the Sect itself; one wrong move, and it could lead to total ruin.

After all, Lin Ye had only just arrived at the Sect, and his background had not even been verified yet.

However, Duanmu Yu really did not want to miss out on such a Prodigy! So, he used his authority as Sect Master to directly make Lin Ye the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect.

Under these circumstances, it was necessary to make Lin Ye feel a sense of belonging to the Sect!

Besides like-minded peers, a Dao Companion was always the simplest way to make someone feel a sense of belonging.

As for the Saintess Liu Yao...

Her looks were beyond reproach, and her talent was extremely formidable, but Duanmu Yu could not trust Liu Yao's personality. If the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect were led astray, it would be troublesome.

Plus, Lin Ye liked mature women!

Almost immediately, Duanmu Yu thought of a good idea!

The Old Ancestor in their ancestral grounds was a peerless figure! Her name as a Female Emperor resonated throughout the Ten Thousand Domains.

If he used the excuse of confirming the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect to take Lin Ye to the ancestral grounds and wake that Old Ancestor up, Lin Ye would probably fall for her the moment he saw her!

By then...

Wouldn't a mere sense of belonging be easily achieved!

Duanmu Yu did not consider at all how his Old Ancestor would torture him after finding out about this.

His mind was now entirely focused on keeping a Prodigy like Lin Ye in the Sect.

"Sect Master, I am truly focused on the Dao right now and have no intention of finding a Dao Companion."

"Very well! We shall discuss this matter another time."

Seeing that Lin Ye was so resolute, Duanmu Yu naturally could not say anything more.

"Since I have already made you the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect, we shall hold the Ceremony for the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect in three days. At that time, we will invite many friendly Immortal Dao Lineages... No, that won't do!"

Originally, Duanmu Yu thought that confirming the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect should be a grand affair, but then he realized that Lin Ye had just joined the Sect.

What if those shameless old fogies all tried to poach him?

He wasn't afraid of them using force, but he was afraid of them using temptation!!!

"Let's postpone the Ceremony for the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect. But Lin Ye, rest assured, I will announce it to the entire Sect today, telling everyone that you have become the Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect!"

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Lin Ye naturally had no objections to this arrangement.

He was still unfamiliar with the Flying Feather Holy Sect and needed some time to adapt.

As for the position of Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect, it was entirely optional for him.

Seeing Lin Ye's attitude, Duanmu Yu became even more satisfied.

"Right, next is the second matter. Lin Ye, I wonder where you are from? Do you have a master?"

It was coming!

Lin Ye secretly thought to himself that it was expected.

After all, after joining a Sect, how could they not ask about your background? But Lin Ye had already prepared his story.

"To tell you the truth, Sect Master, I am a Loose Cultivator. When I was young, I lived in a village near the Heavenly North Ridge. Previously, a Senior taught me the Dao of the sword when I was young, but he left shortly after."

"Since then, I have been training in the Heavenly North Ridge. It was only from an outsider Cultivator that I learned how vast the world is, so I came to the Holy Domain."

"Hm?"

Duanmu Yu was somewhat puzzled: "Then why did you choose our Sect directly?"

"To tell you the truth."

Lin Ye explained: "The old man who taught me the Dao of the sword before seemed to be from the Flying Feather Holy Sect. Although I never formally apprenticed under him, he was the one who guided me on the path of cultivation, so I came here directly."

"Heavenly North Ridge... old man of the sword... could it be..."

Whether it was Duanmu Yu or the Elders, everyone was searching their memories for that figure.

This was, of course, the result of Lin Ye and Mo Yunshang's discussion.

Once, the Flying Feather Holy Sect had an Elder of the sword who went to the Heavenly North Ridge to seek an Opportunity!

The Heavenly North Ridge had always been regarded as a Forbidden Ground by Cultivators of the Human Race.

Because in those endless mountain ranges, there were countless Ancient Clans.

Those who are not of our kind have different intentions.

Furthermore, those Ancient Clans possessing the Bloodline of a Vicious Beast had no good feelings toward the Human Race.

Mo Yunshang was from the Swallowing Heaven Python clan, and that Elder of the sword from the Flying Feather Holy Sect had long since perished in the Heavenly North Ridge many years ago.

It was unknown which Ancient Clan had done it.

It was just that Mo Yunshang had discovered his remains, along with a common Spirit Sword and a portion of his sword technique Legacy.

Because there were no members of the Human Race in the Heavenly North Ridge, the news naturally did not spread.

The Elders in the great hall went from being puzzled at the beginning to becoming gradually excited.

"It must be him! Only he could teach such a Genius of the sword!"

"No wonder! No wonder! I found the Spirit Sword in his hand extremely familiar; so that was the reason!"

"Even though Senior Brother Fu left the Sect, he still called himself a member of the Flying Feather Holy Sect!"

"I really wonder how Senior Brother Fu is doing recently... The events of that year, sigh..."

"..."

The Elders in the great hall were extremely excited, and as the Sect Master, was Duanmu Yu not the same?

He asked with a joyful face: "Lin Ye, do you know where that Senior of the sword is now?"

Hearing this, Lin Ye shook his head, a look of nostalgia appearing on his face.

"After that Senior led me onto the path of cultivation, he gave me this Spirit Sword and then disappeared without a trace."

"As expected..."

Duanmu Yu shook his head, a look of desolation on his face.

Lin Ye's words were not flawless, but the reason these people believed him so much was because of that sword of Lin Ye's!

If that Senior Brother Fu had been secretly harmed, Lin Ye would surely have brought the powerful Spirit Sword that Senior Brother Fu used, not this ordinary Spirit Sword.

One must know that this Spirit Sword was what Senior Brother Fu used to practice swordplay when he was young; its grade was extremely low, and it was merely a token.

Giving this token to Lin Ye and telling him to come to the Flying Feather Holy Sect to apprentice was something Senior Brother Fu would do.

It was something that Senior Brother Fu would do.

Lin Ye surely would not have thought that by blind luck, he had actually guessed correctly.

"With Senior Brother Fu's talent, I fear he must have already gone to the Outer Domains, right?"

After Duanmu Yu sighed, he suppressed his nostalgic emotions.

When he looked at Lin Ye again, his gaze became fiery once more.

Lin Ye subconsciously formed a sword shape with his fingers again!

Staring back at Duanmu Yu, Lin Ye always felt that this old guy had the potential for homosexual tendencies; it was too damn scary!

Duanmu Yu looked at Lin Ye, his brain spinning rapidly.

Ninety percent of what Lin Ye said was true; next, he just needed to send someone to investigate the vicinity of the Heavenly North Ridge.

As long as there were no issues, the position of Divine Child of Feiyu Holy Sect would be secure!

Moreover, he had been worried before that Lin Ye had no connection with his Flying Feather Holy Sect, but hadn't one just appeared?
