Qi Yu hurriedly helped Liu Xing up, speechless, "The sect leader was just saying it casually, why did you take it seriously? I'm only at the Foundation Establishment stage, how can I be your master?"

Meteor's eyes trembled as she looked at Qi Yu, biting her lower lip and remaining silent.

Yun Gui, always eager for drama, continued, "I think he really wants to be your apprentice."

Qi Yu coughed lightly and began to make empty promises, "My current cultivation level isn't high enough to take on disciples. How about I wait until my cultivation level is higher?"

Meteor then gave a slight smile.

Xu Canglang, with a sour face, said, "Alright, you guys go to the back mountain to cultivate first. Poyue suddenly went out, so don't go to the Crimson Flame Tempering Chamber for the time being. I'll pick some tasks for you to do in a few days."

Qi Yu glanced at his expression and chuckled inwardly.

Xu Canglang seemed to admire Liuxing from the beginning, but whether it was because Liuxing's spiritual root aptitude was too poor at that time or for other reasons, Xu Canglang did not take Liuxing as his disciple.

Now that Meteor is eager to become her apprentice, Xu Canglang is definitely unhappy.

She smiled and said, "Okay, senior brother."

Xu Canglang snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Yun Gui jumped off the bed, stretched, and said, "It's not proper for you to be wandering around with your lover like this. I'll announce later that the Flying Star Sect has invited a new elder, so you won't be running around with someone like that."

Qi Yu raised an eyebrow, knowing that Yun Gui had allowed Feng Xiao to move freely within the sect, and said, "Thank you, Master. His name is Xiao Feng, don't get it wrong."

Yun Gui said lazily, "I know. You'd better tell him to change his eyeballs and hair color, or he'll scare the other disciples."

Qi Yu smiled and said, "No problem, no problem."

Feng Xiao, who inexplicably acquired a new identity: "?"

After Yun Gui left, Qi Yu pulled Feng Xiao aside and said, "Did you hear that? Change the color of your eyes and hair to black."

Feng Xiao gave a perfunctory "oh," closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes had turned pure black, and her hair had changed to long, fluffy black hair with a glossy sheen.

Qi Yu looked at the drastically changed Feng Xiao with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Alright, you're free now!"

Feng Xiao: "..."

...

After cutting down the tree with Meteor, Qi Yu dragged the exhausted Meteor towards the Spirit Food Hall.

Along the way, they encountered many disciples holding a piece of paper that looked like a portrait. The disciples gathered in twos and threes and whispered among themselves. Some of the female disciples were so excited that their faces turned red.

But Qi Yu was too tired to pay attention to the outside world; all those words went in her left ear and slipped out her right.

All she could see were the delicious food at Ling Shan Tang, and she rushed there with her head down.

It wasn't until Bai Huan gossiped and shoved a portrait in her face that she realized what good thing Yun Gui had done.

"Little Yan'er, look! Our sect leader has suddenly gained a new immortal named Xiao Feng. He looks like a fairy, almost more beautiful than our sect's most beautiful fairy, Nuan Yan."

"Immortal Venerable! Only cultivators at the Integration Stage and above can be called Immortal Venerable!"

Bai Huan mimicked Xi Shi clutching her heart, her face beaming with gossip, "I can't help but start fantasizing about which fairy could be worthy of him!"

With her mouth full of food, Qi Yu slowly narrowed her eyes, looking at the portrait of Feng Xiao, whose face was cold and aloof.

?

Is this how you announce Feng Xiao's identity?

Seriously?

Meteor coughed, his face turning red from the shock.

Bai Huan had never met Feng Xiao, so she was unaware of the bond between Qi Yu and Feng Xiao. She even started to apply the various stories she had read before to Feng Xiao with a dreamy expression.

Qi Yu wiped away his sweat, but didn't interrupt Bai Huan's fantasy.

She finally understood why the disciples dining at the Spirit Dining Hall were so excited today; it seemed this was indeed a world that judged by appearances.

No, it should be said that Feng Xiao is the kind of person who has both looks and strength, no wonder others flock to him.

"Xiao Feng Immortal Venerable looks so ethereal and otherworldly, he must be the cold and domineering type of male lead!"

Seeing that Qi Yu looked uninterested, Bai Huan exclaimed, "Hey, Xiao Yan'er, don't you also like reading storybooks? Come and discuss with me what kind of personality Xiao Feng Immortal Venerable really has!"

Qi Yu continued eating without looking up, casually remarking, "This guy looks like a fool; he doesn't seem very smart."

The Ling Shan Tang suddenly fell silent, and even Bai Huan stopped making a fuss.

Qi Yu looked up, puzzled, and met the eyes of the person all the disciples in the Spirit Food Hall were talking about.

Feng Xiao, who had come looking for him through the symbiotic contract, frowned and went straight to sit down next to Qi Yu.

Everyone in Ling Shan Tang held their breath, not daring to make a sound, as they watched Xiao Feng, the Immortal Venerable who appeared in the portrait and was said to be at the Mahayana stage, appear.

Cultivators are sharp-witted and perceptive, and many people heard Qi Yu's words just now.

"She said Immortal Venerable Xiao Feng looked like a fool, and the person in question overheard it. Who can tolerate this? Immortal Venerable, quickly give her a beating!"

"Hey, hey, she's the sect leader's personal disciple, she should be able to hold back for the sect leader's sake, right?"

"To be honest, Yu Shengyan is really too arrogant. First, she beat up the prince of the Vermilion Bird Kingdom, and now she openly says that a Mahayana Immortal Venerable is stupid. I don't think she'll go far in the future!"

"Sect Master has misjudged her! She's only a five-elemental-root person."

"Hmph. Yu Shengyan has ordinary talent and looks, yet she dares to slander Immortal Venerable Xiao Feng. It's disgusting."

...

The whispers of those people naturally reached Qi Yu's ears. She turned her head to look at Feng Xiao, who was frowning, wondering why he had suddenly come over.

Feng Xiao stared intently at the dishes on the table, his gaze lingering on something that resembled a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).

It seems I've eaten something that looks very similar to this somewhere before.

Why do I find this thing so special...?

Feng Xiao finally looked away, looked at Qi Yu, pointed to the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), and said seriously, "I want to eat that."

Qi Yu: "?" Have you been looking at this for so long just to inspect which dish to eat?

Everyone: "...?"

They couldn't hear what Immortal Venerable Xiao Feng had just said because the wind was too strong.

Qi Yu, his face numb, said irritably, "Do it yourself, and you'll have plenty to eat and wear."

Everyone: "..." She actually rejected Xiao Feng, who looks like an immortal?!

"Oh." Feng Xiao wasn't annoyed by the rejection. He actually reached out and grabbed the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) himself, and started eating it without any instruction.

He frowned and put the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) down again.

It doesn't taste like that.

Qi Yu didn't care why Feng Xiao took a bite and then stopped eating, assuming that it was because he was a phoenix and couldn't get used to the food, and continued to eat as usual.

Sitting opposite Qi Yu and Feng Xiao, Bai Huan stared at them with wide eyes, her blinking gaze shifting between Qi Yu, who seemed completely unaffected, and Feng Xiao, who appeared to have done this countless times.

Isn't something wrong with this?!

They seem to know each other quite well!
