2: Ruined Tianquan Peak, the servant disciple Fengwu

Kaoshan Sect has Seven Peaks.

They are Tianshu Peak, Tianxuan Peak, Tianji Peak, Tianquan Peak, Yuheng Peak, Kaiyang Peak, and Yaoguang Peak, where the Sect Head resides!

A thousand years ago, Tianquan Peak was the most powerful, suppressing the Peak Lords of the other six peaks.

Unfortunately, the Tianquan Peak Lord, in an effort to further the Kaoshan Sect, went out and was attacked by the Demonic Sect, ultimately perishing.

From then on, Tianquan Peak never recovered, gradually losing its standing among the Seven Peaks.

By now, with the previous Tianquan Peak Lord's accident, Tianquan Peak has been without a Peak Lord for a hundred years!

Li Changfeng arrived at Tianquan Peak, looking at the dilapidated courtyard, which was a stark contrast to Tianshu Peak, where he had been previously—like comparing a palace to a ruined temple.

Even the roof of the small, broken courtyard was merely a crude covering, making it obvious that one could enjoy a free shower on rainy days.

And in the courtyard, let alone a training ground or Cultivation room, even the Spiritual Qi was the worst in the Kaoshan Sect, almost comparable to the Outer Sect Disciple area.

This was one of the Seven Main Peaks!

“Senior, do you have business at Tianquan Peak?”

Just as Li Changfeng was filled with helplessness and worried about his future life, a pleasant female voice sounded.

Li Changfeng had actually discovered her earlier, but since it didn't trigger the System's Disciple recruitment prompt, Li Changfeng couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

With his hands clasped behind his back, Li Changfeng adopted the demeanor of a distinguished Senior.

Turning his head to look, Li Changfeng's face showed no emotion, but his heart was thrilled.

This was an extremely beautiful girl, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was captivating, far more beautiful than those celebrity girl groups from his previous life.

Even though the woman before him was dressed simply, it still couldn't conceal her exquisite beauty.

When the woman saw Li Changfeng turn around and noticed he was wearing an Elder's robe, she immediately knelt down.

“Phoenix Dance did not know Elder was arriving and failed to greet him from afar. Please punish this Elder!”

Li Changfeng smiled slightly: “Rise. Although this small courtyard is simple, it is very clean.”

“Was it done by you?”

Phoenix Dance replied cautiously and with trepidation: “Elder, it was Disciple.”

Elder Li: “Well done. This bottle of Qi Gathering Pill is your reward.”

“Are there any other Disciples on Tianquan Peak?”

Phoenix Dance's face showed joy, but it quickly dimmed: “Reporting to Elder, Tianquan Peak currently only has Disciple here.”

“Disciple’s talent is extremely poor. Because I offended a very talented Senior Brother in the Outer Sect, I was punished and sent to Tianquan Peak.”

Li Changfeng nodded: “Clean up a room for me. From now on, I will be your companion.”

“After the Disciple recruitment ceremony in three days, I will select a few more people to join Tianquan Peak.”

“From today onwards, I shall be the Tianquan Peak Lord!”

“Cultivate well and strive to enter the Inner Sect one day.”

“Now, tell me how you offended that Outer Sect Disciple. If you are blameless, I will uphold justice for you!”

Phoenix Dance's eyes reddened. This was the first time someone had cared for her since she joined the Kaoshan Sect.

Amidst intense emotional fluctuations, Phoenix Dance no longer held back and burst into loud sobs.

At this crying, Li Changfeng felt a bit at a loss.

Wuwu!

Wuwuwu!

Li Changfeng sighed in his heart, watching the weeping Phoenix Dance.

“Forget it, it seems this girl has suffered a lot of grievances. Let her cry it out and vent.”

He placed one hand on the weeping Phoenix Dance’s shoulder and gently patted Phoenix Dance’s back with the other, comforting her with this gesture.

At the same time, Li Changfeng thought to himself, he had already sacrificed his appearance.

Why was the System's Disciple recruitment mission still not triggered?

Li Changfeng: “System, are you asleep, or did you go on a date?”

System: “Host, System is here!”

A soft, cute loli voice sounded, very pleasant.

Li Changfeng: “System, why didn't Phoenix Dance trigger the Disciple recruitment mission?”

“Is there some special requirement to trigger the System's Disciple recruitment mission?”

System: “Please explore it yourself, Host!”

“This System will not provide explanations. As long as your IQ is not below thirty, you will definitely know how to trigger the Disciple recruitment mission.”

My goodness!

Li Changfeng wanted to curse. His intuition told him that the System was implying something about him.

Li Changfeng and the System chatted for an unknown amount of time before Phoenix Dance finally stopped clinging to Li Changfeng.

Suddenly losing the soft touch, Li Changfeng secretly thought that good times were indeed always short-lived.

Phoenix Dance's face was filled with trepidation. She lowered her head, her clothes seeming barely able to contain her.

“Elder…”

“No! Peak Lord.”

“Just now, Phoenix Dance couldn't control her emotions. Please, Peak Lord, do not blame me.”

“Peak Lord is the first person who made me feel warmth in the Kaoshan Sect. Thank you.”

Li Changfeng said faintly: “Phoenix Dance, there’s no need for this.”

“Can you speak now?”

Okay!

Immediately, Phoenix Dance recounted everything about how she offended a certain Outer Sect Disciple.

Li Changfeng's expression grew increasingly grim, and killing intent burst forth from his eyes.

He knew that there were naturally scoundrels in the Kaoshan Sect, with various intricate webs of interests!

And the reason Phoenix Dance offended that Outer Sect Disciple was because she refused to become his woman, and he even caused the death of Phoenix Dance's parents in the mortal world!

That Outer Sect Disciple was also the grandson of an Outer Sect Elder, and he had harmed countless Outer Sect female Disciples.

“Come! Follow me to the Outer Sect. We'll find that little scoundrel. I'll smash him into a bloody mist.”

“Now you are a person of my Tianquan Peak. No one in this Kaoshan Sect can bully you!”

Phoenix Dance was immensely grateful but slowly shook her head.

She suddenly knelt before Li Changfeng and said in a deep voice.

“Please, Peak Lord, accept me as your Disciple. I want to avenge myself!”

“The kindness of my parents' upbringing has not been repaid, and Phoenix Dance does not wish to avenge her parents' deaths through the hands of others.”

“I earnestly request Peak Lord to grant my wish and help Phoenix Dance personally slay her enemy!”

Li Changfeng frowned tightly and said in a deep voice: “Do you really want to take revenge yourself?”

“You should know that your talent is very poor, not comparable to that Outer Sect Disciple.”

“If I don't act, it's very likely that you will never be able to avenge yourself in this lifetime.”

Phoenix Dance looked up, her reddened eyes fixed on Li Changfeng.

“Peak Lord, I know.”

“But I will Cultivate harder than others. If others Cultivate for three hours, I will Cultivate for six hours, or nine hours.”

“As long as there is hope for revenge, I will never give up.”

Li Changfeng was emotional inside. What a good female Disciple.

Without his guidance, she would desperately Cultivate. Why was the System still not responding?

Had it crashed?

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for triggering the Disciple recruitment mission.]

[Please accept Phoenix Dance as a Disciple, and you will receive unknown System rewards!]

[Accept Phoenix Dance as a Disciple, Yes/No?]

It's here!

He waited and waited, and it finally arrived.

Li Changfeng had originally thought that even without System rewards, he would still accept Phoenix Dance and help her get her revenge.

The System mission triggered at this moment, making Li Changfeng very pleased.

Li Changfeng: “Phoenix Dance, the Dao of Cultivation is a struggle against Heaven and against people!”

“Since you bear such a deep blood feud, your master will lend you a hand!”

“Perform the Disciple initiation ceremony!”

Phoenix Dance excitedly kowtowed to Li Changfeng. Just as she was about to prepare tea and other rituals for the Disciple initiation, Li Changfeng interrupted her.

Li Changfeng: “Since you have kowtowed and acknowledged me as your master, from now on, you are my, Li Changfeng’s, eldest Disciple.”

“Your revenge, Master will help you with it!”

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully accepting Phoenix Dance as a Disciple!]

[Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a Divine-Grade Bloodline Pill and a special reward: the Automatic Cultivation System!]
