Chapter 44: After Abandoning My Poor Little Apprentice 4 Are You Finally Coming to Pick Me Up?
"If you're dissatisfied, come forward and attack us together. We can solve this together."
In the main hall of Shangqing Immortal Sect, there was panic and the people were in a state of panic.
The seven peak masters and twelve elders of the Shangqing Immortal Sect were silent as a cicada.
With a rustling sound, Fu Wei, dressed in red, casually dragged the Immortal Demon Sword to the seat that should have belonged to the Lord of Silence Light Sword, which was also the main seat of the head of the Shangqing Immortal Sect.
If it had been an hour ago, everyone would have made Fu Wei realize his limitations and made him get out immediately.
But it’s not possible now. It only took Fu Wei half an hour to kill his way here from the mountain gate.
The four peak masters and six elders tried their best and used all their skills to block the enemy outside the Shangqing Hall, but they were all seriously injured by Fu Wei's move. They are now unconscious and their lives are in danger.
Everyone lowered their heads and didn't even dare to look at Fu Wei.
Seeing this, Fu Wei raised the corners of his lips, and his mood gradually became cheerful: "Wouldn't it be better if you did this earlier? You must let me beat you up."
Seeing Fu Wei being so arrogant, the Beast Taming Peak Master stood up pretentiously, pointing at Fu Wei and cursing:
"Fuwei, the body of the Sword Master Jiguang is still warm, and you, his natal spirit sword, refused to sacrifice your life for your master, and are still here harming the sect left behind by the Sword Master. You simply deserve to die!"
Fu Wei scoffed, "So what?!"
The Beast Taming Peak Master said: "I think the death of the Sword Master Jiguang in the Demon Realm is not a coincidence at all. You must have betrayed him. Otherwise, how could you, as the Sword Master's sword spirit, return safely? You are a spy, a villain with ulterior motives."
Help smile.
Her face was as pretty as peach and plum, stunning and charming. In the past, when she had a stern face, people were afraid of her. But now when she smiled, she was so gorgeous and beautiful that it bewitched people. The disciples of Shangqing Xianzong who were watching the show couldn't help but gasp.
Putting aside other things, if the leader of the Shangqing Immortal Sect relies on his looks, Fu Wei definitely deserves the title.
"So what? Now that Jiguang is dead, who else can you, the Shangqing Immortal Sect, rely on besides me?"
The Beast Taming Peak Master said proudly, "Our Shangqing Immortal Sect is the number one sect in the world. We are renowned throughout the three realms. We don't need to rely on a mere sword spirit like you."
Fu Wei: "Really? Xie Qingling, you tell me."
The corners of Xie Qingling's lips twitched slightly, and he came out with a long and unspeakable expression. He rubbed his brows and said, "Brother, please stop talking."
The Master of Beast Taming Peak said, "Junior Sister, could it be that you have also been bewitched by him?"
Xie Qingling said helplessly, "It's not bewitching, but since the death of Sword Master, our sect no longer has a Spiritualization Stage cultivator to lead it. The hundreds of immortal sects are eyeing us covetously, wishing to skin us alive and divide us up completely. It's only been three months, and our sect has already lost three blessed plots and nine spiritual veins."
"So it's not that Fu Wei Jianjun can't leave Shangqing Xianzong, but that Shangqing Xianzong can't leave him. Brother, wake up!"
The master of Beast Taming Peak is a otaku who stays in Beast Taming Peak all year round, so he doesn't know much about this.
Hearing Xie Qingling say this, he smacked his lips, trying to save the Immortal Sect's face: "Junior Sister, don't lie to me, is it really that bad?"
Xie Qingling nodded: "It's very miserable."
Finally, he added, "The spiritual herbs you eat at the Beast Taming Peak now were all snatched back by the Sword Lord. Otherwise, the spiritual beasts in your peak would have been grazing on the grass long ago."
Upon hearing this, the Beast Taming Peak Master immediately lifted up his clothes. Just as everyone gasped, thinking he was finally going to face Fu Wei, he dropped to his knees with a plop and began to cry, "Master, you can't leave! If you leave, what will our entire sect eat?"
"How are those hungry little beasts on our Beast Control Peak supposed to survive?"
As she spoke, she moved forward while crying, and finally squeezed out a few crocodile tears, and pretended to wipe her tears with Fu Wei's clothes.
Xie Qingling: "..."
The disciples watching the fun: "..."
There were also those elders and peak masters who had fought hard against Fu Wei and were finally severely injured. Upon seeing this, they vomited blood and fainted.
You are so courageous.
Fu Wei's eyebrows jumped: "Get out of here?"
The Beast Taming Peak Master said pitifully, "Are you still leaving?"
You've played it too hard.
"I'm not leaving." Fu Wei glared at the Beast Taming Peak Master and warned him.
The Beast Taming Peak Master quickly got up, straightened his clothes, and assumed the posture of a peak master again. He stood there and acted like a loyal lackey of Fu Wei: "From now on, Fu Wei Jianjun will be the head of our Shangqing Immortal Sect. Is there still any significance for you to wait here?"
Xie Qingling was the first to kneel down: "Xie Qingling from Baicao Peak congratulates the Sect Master."
The other disciples felt they might have been set up, but couldn't figure out how. They all began to kneel down and shouted with Xie Qingling, "Congratulations, Sect Leader..."
In a short time, the news that Fu Wei took over the Shangqing Xianzong spread throughout the entire cultivation world, and those immortal sects and families who were originally ready to make a move did not care at first.
But they forgot that before Fu Wei met Jiguang Jianzun, he was a well-known devil in the world of cultivation. From the hundreds of immortal families to the demon clan, no one had not been beaten by him.
It was not until Fu Wei, alone with a sword, went to each of the sects one by one and beat the sects that were trying to steal the blessed land's spiritual veins until they cried out in pain and knelt down to beg for mercy that all the sects and factions immediately quieted down and began to think about whether they had committed any crime against the Shangqing Immortal Sect. They immediately came to apologize, and those who had not committed any crime sent congratulatory letters and prepared gifts.
When Jiguang was in power, the Shangqing Immortal Sect was a very reasonable sect, but now that Fuwei has come to power, the entire Three Realms have begun to tremble.
It's over. The reasonable ones are dead, and the unreasonable ones are in power.
The hundreds of immortal families have unprecedented telepathy, so why did Jiguang die?
Fu Wei became the head of the sect. Apart from the other immortal sects who were unhappy, the happiest people were the disciples of the Shangqing Immortal Sect.
After Jiguang's death, they went out to gain experience and were often targeted by disciples from other sects and were often robbed. Now that the news has spread from Fuwei, those disciples are frightened and immediately apologized and pleaded guilty.
After being depressed for so long, I finally stood up.
Now the sect is filled with joy.
After being busy for so long, Fu Wei finally remembered that she had a child, so she immediately summoned the Water Spirit Mirror to check on Rong Jiao's recent situation.
"Is this your son?"
Xie Qingling looked at the porcelain doll-like child in the mirror in surprise.
Fu Wei shook her head: "...No, I picked up the child."
Xie Qingling was a little surprised: "You are not the type to meddle in other people's business. It seems that you like him very much."
Fu Wei didn't comment, but looked at the dirty little dumpling seriously, feeling a little bit of blame in her heart. She had only been away for a few days, so how did this little dumpling take care of itself? How did it end up like this?
Xie Qingling also saw Fu Wei's thoughts and asked him with a smile: "Since you like him so much and care so much about him, why don't you bring him directly to the sect and keep him by your side?"
Fu Wei shook her head: "He's not a bird, and I'm not really raising a child."
Xie Qingling: "What do you mean?"
Fu Wei: "He is my apprentice."
Xie Qingling was a little confused: "Nowadays, the entire cultivation world is full of people who want to become your disciples. I heard that the young master of the Anling Sect will also participate in this Ascension Conference. Are you really not going to be picky?"
"He looks ordinary, nothing special. If you like him, you can keep him by your side."
Fu Wei smiled happily: "Even if the person I like is useless, I can still make him soar to the sky."
Xie Qingling sighed, "As expected of you, so why did you leave him outside?"
Fu Wei: "I never want a useless person who relies on elixirs and spiritual treasures. What I want to do is to cultivate him into a shining pearl that is unparalleled in the world."
"I want to watch him climb up little by little, stand shoulder to shoulder with me on the top of the mountain, and look down at everyone."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qingling jokingly said, "You don't look like you're training a disciple, but rather training your own rival."
Fu smiled and hummed, "That's not bad. After all, after Jiguang died, I really became invincible."
At the mention of Jiguang, Xie Qingling seemed to be hesitant to speak. He asked cryptically, "Fuwei, what exactly happened that day? Can you tell me a little bit?"
Fu Wei said calmly, "There's nothing much to say. It's just that Jiguang and the Demon God perished together."
Xie Qingling stared into Fu Wei's eyes and asked, "You and Jiguang have been together for a thousand years. Now that he's dead, the Shangqing Immortal Sect is on the verge of collapse, yet you single-handedly held the sect together. Was it for him?"
For the sake of silence and light?
This is simply ridiculous.
"Where did you hear that?"
"I didn't hear it, I made it up myself." Xie Qingling took out a stack of storybooks, and then flipped through them in front of Fu Wei, and finally took out a storybook called "The Gentle Sword Master and His Domineering Sword Spirit".
Xie Qingling said seriously, "What do you think? I'll write it in the latest chapter right now. You and Jiguang were deeply in love, but the devil appeared and wanted to take you away by force. Jiguang fought the devil for three hundred rounds for you, and finally died together with the devil. Before he died, in order to spare you, he terminated the contract and sent you to the human world."
"What do you think of the whole plot?"
Fu Wei's hand creaked as he held the notebook. He said with a forced smile, "You're amazing! You even dare to write in my notebook."
Xie Qingling sighed: "Everyone has a hobby, right? If you don't like it, I have other things..."
Before he finished speaking, Fu Wei set the sketchbook on fire.
Xie Qingling's face turned pale and she was almost crying: "You are such a ruthless sword spirit..."
"Enough of the nonsense. How is the Ascension Meeting going?"
Xie Qingling mourned for a moment, then immediately switched to normal mode and said, "Now that Jiguang Sword Master has fallen, you have just ascended to the position of Sect Leader. This is your first Ascension Ceremony. To show off your support for the Shangqing Immortal Sect, it must be grand. But don't worry, everything is ready."
Fu Wei: "The key point."
Xie Qingling said, "It's all settled. But there are a few peak masters and elders in our sect who are against you. What are you going to do?"
Fu Wei: "Those who are obedient will be released, and those who are disobedient will be sent to guard the grave of Jiguang."
Xie Qingling: "Good idea!"
Fu Wei: "Then go."
Xie Qingling looked at Rong Jiao in the Shuiling Mirror again and said hesitantly, "What about your little disciple? Do you need a backdoor?"
Fu Wei said: "Don't worry about him, I trust him."
Seeing that Fu Wei was confident about this, Xie Qingling nodded: "Okay."
Before she could ask Fu Wei why she was so confident, she heard Fu Wei say silently, "I have been teaching him for so long. If he can't top the list of the Ascension Conference, I will send him to sweep the floors in the outer sect."
Xie Qingling: "..."
Fu Wei asked, "Why don't you leave?"
Xie Qingling: "Oh, seeing that you are so confident, I wanted to ask him what his name is. I want Lianqi Peak to make his natal jade token first, and then hang it in your room so that you can know his situation."
This question left Fu Weiwen silent.
Xie Qingling: "Why, is it inconvenient to say it out loud?"
Fu Wei hesitated, which was unusual for him, and said, "I don't know his name."
After all, he called him "Little Tuanzi" every day. He only knew his last name was Rong and knew nothing else.
Xie Qingling: "..."
Xie Qingling: "Are you still making jade plaques?"
Fu Wei: "Okay, just write the three words 'little dumpling' on it."
Xie Qingling: "That's fine."
…
By the time Rong Jiao arrived at the foot of the mountain of Shangqing Xianzong, half a month had passed. It happened to be the last day of the Ascension Conference, so there were not many people at the foot of the mountain.
No matter if one is from a family of immortal cultivators or an ordinary mortal, if one wants to join the Shangqing Immortal Sect, one has to climb the Three Thousand Realms Immortal Ladder, then test one's spiritual roots, and finally come to the Shangqing Palace to become a disciple.
But he arrived too late, there were still three hours before the Stairway to Immortality disappeared.
It is simply impossible for a five or six-year-old child to climb the ladder to immortality in three hours.
What's more, the three thousand steps are not ordinary steps. The higher you go, the harder it is to climb. Moreover, to become an immortal, you need to cut off everything in the secular world. Up there, you will see your dead parents, your beloved children and wife, and you may even see the money, wealth, and power you have always dreamed of.
If you are not careful, you will be confused, stop climbing the ladder, and eventually be eliminated.
But Rong Jiao still climbed up.
With a determined and stubborn look in his eyes and a spirit of not giving up, he climbed up the stairs one step at a time.
In the end, his hands were covered in blood, his nails were broken, his clothes were torn, and he looked in a mess.
But even so, he still didn't stop.
The disciple guarding the Immortal Staircase saw the tiny child and said with some pity, "Child, even an adult can't climb these 3,000 steps in three hours. You're still so young, why don't you come back next year?"
"Yes, there are still three hours left, and the ladder will disappear soon. Why are you doing this?"
Rong Jiao lowered his eyebrows, his voice was hoarse, filled with sadness and pain: "I have to climb up, because there is someone very important to me, who is up there, I have to find him, I don't want to be left behind by him——"
The disciple guarding the stairs felt a pang of sadness: "If you just want to find someone, I can pass the message on for you. If he sees you like this, he will definitely feel sorry for you."
Rong Jiao shook her head stubbornly: "Thank you, sister, but I have to find him myself."
Then he stopped talking and climbed up step by step.
Seeing this, the people in the Shangqing Hall couldn't help but sigh: "This child is determined and this move is very touching."
"On his way up, he faced all kinds of challenges, including money, fame, power, and even his family. Except for a moment of hesitation when he saw his family, he didn't even glance at them."
"Who on earth is he looking for? Who is he going to meet? He's really taking his own life."
"Yeah, I don't know who is so cruel as to abandon a child and let him climb those three thousand steps alone."
"It's so hateful. Don't you from the Shangqing Immortal Sect do anything about it?" Seeing that Rong Jiao had no strength left and fell down exhausted, and there were only 300 steps left of the 3,000 steps, and there was still half an hour left, and the time was about to end, someone asked angrily.
Everyone didn't know the truth and subconsciously looked at Fu Wei who was sitting at the main seat.
But Fu Wei supported his chin and said slowly: "Yes, how can it be so hateful."
When everyone heard Fu Wei agree, they quickly followed up: "This matter must be thoroughly investigated!"
"Yes, yes, it's best to check now and see what has happened to such a good seedling!"
Regardless of Rong Jiao's talent, just relying on his persistence and perseverance, he will have a good result in the future cultivation of immortals, which has also caused people from other sects to be eager to make a move.
Xie Qingling's mouth twitched. She felt that these old guys were courting death, so she kindly reminded them, "Everyone, please be patient. Maybe they are not cruel, but just want to test this child."
"You can't joke about this child's life during training. If you, the Shangqing Immortal Sect, don't want him, I will take him away. I just happen to be in need of a closed disciple."
Xie Qingling: "Master Yinzong, please be careful with your words."
The leader of the Yin Sect said, "If you say so, this child is not your illegitimate child!"
Xie Qingling immediately shut up: "Nonsense!"
The leader of the Yin Sect said: "I don't know who that kid is looking for. He's a scumbag who abandons his lover after having sex with him!"
Everyone agreed.
Xie Qingling's brows twitched fiercely, and she subconsciously looked at Fu Wei, but saw that Fu Wei was slowly staring at the neck of the leader of the Yin Sect, as if he was looking for a suitable position to chop off his head.
Xie Qingling shuddered. She couldn’t carry him. She couldn’t carry him.
While everyone was arguing, someone exclaimed, "Look, he's climbing up!"
Rong Jiao gritted his teeth and climbed up. As he climbed the stairs, he left one bright red bloody handprint after another. In the end, only five steps were left.
There was only half an incense stick of time left. Rong Jiao was lying on the steps, half dead and exhausted. Everyone could not help but hold their breath and watch.
Can Rong Jiao climb up?
"You must climb up."
"As long as he climbs up, I will accept him as my last disciple! Let him inherit my legacy."
Xie Qingling chuckled: "You don't have a chance?"
Everyone was puzzled: "What does it mean?"
Xie Qingling gestured for them to look at the main seat.
Fu Wei, who was sitting there watching the fun just now, had disappeared. Just when everyone was puzzled, Fu Wei appeared at the end of the ladder to heaven, which was the immortal platform.
Dressed in red, Lielie stood in the afterglow of the setting sun, as hot as a flame.
He lowered his eyes and looked at Rong Jiao who was climbing the ladder to immortality.
Rong Jiao raised her head tremblingly, tilting her pale face upwards, revealing a sweet smile with a dimple. She looked at Fu Wei with dependence: "Are you finally here to pick me up?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.
