Wouldn't it only take a few minutes to flatten your Tianyun Sect?

A day later.

The two had already arrived at Heaven Cloud Sect.

As one of the most prominent forces in the Eastern Domain in recent years, Heaven Cloud Sect's Sect was indeed magnificent.

After passing through the mountain gate, there were ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps leading directly to the sky and the clouds.

Reaching the Sky and Exploring the Clouds was the origin of the Tianyun name.

Looking up, one could not see the full scope of Heaven Cloud Sect, only faintly emerging auspicious light. It was only by looking through the auspicious light that one could vaguely see a corner of the magnificent buildings.

The arrival of Zhuge Qing and the Grand Elder was naturally met with a personal reception from Wu Yun, the Sect Master of Heaven Cloud Sect.

Inside the main hall of Heaven Cloud Sect's Sect.

Wu Yun was exchanging pleasantries with Zhuge Qing.

"Many of the Formations in our Sect have fallen into disrepair over the years. I hope Brother Zhuge can help this time," Wu Yun stroked his beard and said with a leisurely smile from the main seat.

"Of course, there's no problem," Zhuge Qing said with a faint smile.

After all, this kind of help wasn't free.

Each time he acted, it was worth a lot.

It was the same principle as an Alchemist performing Alchemy for others.

Perhaps an Alchemist's own strength was not strong, but they were respected wherever they went, and Wan Dao Mountain was like this.

"By the way, there's one more thing I'd like to ask Brother Zhuge for help with," Wu Yun said, stroking his beard, "As you know, our Heaven Cloud Sect recently produced a Saintess. I would like Brother Zhuge to give her some guidance."

"As you know, when traveling in this cultivation world, whether entering a Secret Realm or traveling abroad, one might encounter Formations. If one can understand some basic Formations, then safety is much more assured."

"This might depend on her talent."

Zhuge Qing said with a straightforward smile.

"Good, then let Brother Zhuge test my Disciple."

With that, Wu Tian transmitted his voice, "Xue'er, come in and pay your respects to Sect Leader Zhuge of Wan Dao Mountain."

As Wu Tian's voice fell, Murong Xue, dressed in white, walked in from outside the hall, her long skirt trailing behind her.

"Murong Xue greets Senior Zhuge," Murong Xue bowed slightly and saluted.

"Indeed, a Dragon and Phoenix among people."

Zhuge Qing nodded in appreciation. With his seasoned gaze, he could naturally tell that this woman was truly extraordinary. He then spoke directly, "Since that's the case, I will test you."

"I will now set up a small Spirit Gathering Formation in front of you. If you can set up the same Formation after watching me, then I will agree to your Revered Master's request."

"Alright, Sect Leader Zhuge, please begin," Murong Xue said with confidence.

Zhuge Qing nodded, took out three gold coins from his Storage Ring, arranged them in a triangular Formation, and then formed a series of hand seals. Soon, a small Spirit Gathering Formation was set up by him.

This kind of assessment seemed casual.

But it was the most practical way to test whether a person had any attainment in Formations.

"How about it, little girl, can you do it?" Zhuge Qing asked.

"What's so difficult about this?"

Murong Xue smiled confidently, also took out three gold coins, and imitated him.

Although her movements were a bit unfamiliar and the effect was not as good as Zhuge Qing's, she did manage to set up a small Spirit Gathering Formation.

"Hahahahaha."

Seeing this, Wu Yun, who was in the main seat, laughed loudly, "How about it, Brother Zhuge, is my Disciple alright?"

"Golden talent, truly lives up to its reputation!"

Zhuge Qing was truly surprised. This kind of talent was only slightly inferior to Tian Nan's back then.

He even felt a bit envious and wanted to poach her, bringing Murong Xue to his Wan Dao Mountain.

"Then, Brother Zhuge, why don't you accept my Disciple as a Named Disciple?" At this moment, Wu Tian, who was in the main seat, said with a smile.

And Murong Xue also looked at Zhuge Qing with anticipation.

With her talent, her achievements on the path of cultivation would definitely not be low.

If she were to further receive the true inheritance of Wan Dao Mountain step by step, wouldn't her Murong Xue become famous throughout the Eastern Domain?

No.

She might even become the first person in the Eastern Domain, unprecedented!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but proudly lift her chin.

Zhuge Qing almost agreed without much hesitation.

This matter was also beneficial to his Wan Dao Mountain. After all, Murong Xue had golden talent, and her future achievements would surely be limitless.

Not to mention, he was also very envious of Murong Xue's talent.

He even thought at that moment that it wasn't impossible to pass on his true inheritance to Murong Xue in the future.

However.

He was just about to nod.

The Grand Elder, who was sitting next to him, glanced at the flickering Jade Slip, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

Ignoring Wu Yun's gaze, the Grand Elder leaned closer to Zhuge Qing's ear and anxiously transmitted his voice.

"What?"

"Such a thing happened?"

After listening to the Grand Elder's voice transmission, Zhuge Qing's brows furrowed tightly.

And his gaze towards Murong Xue also changed instantly.

Because the message the Grand Elder had just transmitted to him was precisely the news Wan Dao Mountain had just obtained from Fengtian City.

In the message.

It included the grievances between the Murong Family and the Lin Family, as well as the marriage between Murong Xue and Lin Feng.

Of course, he also knew that Lin Feng was Zhong Qing's Personal Disciple.

He also knew that Lin Feng would soon come to Heaven Cloud Sect to challenge Murong Xue.

And through this series of connections, it was naturally not difficult to guess that Zhong Qing's arrival in Fengtian City was probably for the matter between his Disciple and Murong Xue.

He absolutely never expected that this Murong Xue in front of him could actually be linked to Zhong Qing, who had just saved his Wan Dao Mountain.

"Brother Zhuge, did something happen to your Wan Dao Mountain?"

Seeing Zhuge Qing's suddenly changed expression, Wu Yun couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Wu, you worry too much. Nothing happened to my Wan Dao Mountain. It's just that this Disciple, I'm afraid I'm not blessed enough to accept her," Zhuge Qing said, glancing at Murong Xue.

"What do you mean by this?"

Hearing Zhuge Qing's words, Wu Yun frowned, "Didn't you just say that as long as Xue'er passed the assessment, you would be willing to teach her?"

"Her talent is good, but as for her character..."

Zhuge Qing didn't say anything more, but instead directly stood up and walked outside.

"As for repairing the Formations, let's talk about it another time."

With that, Zhuge Qing left directly with the Grand Elder.

"Revered Master, what does he mean?" Murong Xue said with displeasure, "What airs is his small Wan Dao Mountain putting on in our Heaven Cloud Sect? Isn't it just knowing some Formations? I disdain to learn it."

"Alas."

"Xue'er, you go back first. I always feel that Zhuge Qing has a hidden meaning in his words."

Standing in the hall, Wu Yun hesitated for a moment, then thought about it and still chased after Zhuge Qing and the Grand Elder who had left.

Finally, he caught up with the two at the mountain gate.

"Brother Zhuge, can you tell me what exactly happened?" Wu Yun asked with a solemn face, "And I always feel that there's a hidden meaning in your words."

Seeing Wu Yun chasing after him, Zhuge Qing sighed and said, "Brother Wu, our friendship is not that great, but we have known each other for several hundred years. For the sake of this friendship, I will remind you of one thing."

"What is it? Tell me."

"As for your Disciple, you had best draw a clear line with her, or directly expel her from Heaven Cloud Sect, lest you invite disaster upon yourself," Zhuge Qing said with a solemn expression.

"What did you say?"

But upon hearing Zhuge Qing's words, Wu Yun directly exclaimed in shock.

"Zhuge Qing, are you out of your mind?"

"You want me to expel Xue'er from the Sect?"

"Do you not know that she has golden talent? Do you not know how much manpower and resources our Heaven Cloud Sect used to cultivate her? You actually told me to expel her, who has golden talent, from the Sect?"

"Are you sure you're not joking with me?"

Wu Yun stared at Zhuge Qing, his face full of anger. Wasn't this making fun of him?

But Zhuge Qing's expression remained solemn.

"I'm not joking with you, I'm serious!"

In Zhuge Qing's view, his reminder was not excessive at all.

What about golden talent?

If a golden talent has poor Luck, at best they will reach the Sun Profound Realm in the future. Among the outstanding ones, there might be a slight possibility of achieving the Earth Profound Realm!

But Zhong Qing took down a Sun Profound Realm expert with just a wooden sculpture.

If such a super expert were to truly get angry for his Disciple's sake, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to flatten your Heaven Cloud Sect?
