Is the First Stage Finally Here

"Zhong Qing, pays respects to Master."

In the courtyard.

Zhong Qing respectfully knelt beside Yi Feng.

"What are you doing, disciple? Get up quickly," Yi Feng said, helping his beloved disciple who had been through so much with him over the past two years. "We're family, no need for such formality."

"Master, it was you who bestowed upon me this peerless cultivation!"

"This is something I never dared to imagine."

Zhong Qing's face was filled with gratitude, his hand tightening around the hilt of his great sword: "Now that I have this strength, I can finally start my plan for revenge."

"Ah!"

"It's been tough on you."

Yi Feng patted Zhong Qing's head; he knew all too well the hatred in the boy's heart.

"I suppose, with your Earth Immortal strength, you should be able to take your revenge now!"

Yi Feng said.

"I can, but they were originally an ancient family from the Immortal River Continent, and it seems they have roots in the Immortal Realm as well," Zhong Qing said. "And the one who killed my parents seems to have ascended to the Immortal Realm."

"I recall Master once mentioned that Earth Immortals are quite weak in the Immortal Realm," Zhong Qing timidly looked up and said, "So, may I make another request to Master?"

"Speak."

"May I borrow the help of my fellow disciples and sisters to go with me to take revenge?" Zhong Qing earnestly said, "Because I, as an Earth Immortal, might not be enough, but a hundred Earth Immortals should be possible."

"Silly child."

"You are already the senior brother of those layabouts; if you need their help, just tell them directly. There's no need for borrowing."

"But I feel you're overthinking it. How about I just take care of them for you?" Yi Feng smirked, clenching his fist.

"No, I still want to personally avenge my parents; it's my heart's knot."

"If Master were to intervene, it might be easy for me to take revenge, but that's not what I want," Zhong Qing said firmly, gritting his teeth.

Yi Feng was left speechless.

This kid.

Why is he so stubborn?

"Alright then!"

Yi Feng reluctantly agreed.

"Thank you, Master," Zhong Qing kowtowed, "But I have one more question for Master."

"Speak."

Yi Feng said.

"Master is so powerful, why didn't I know about it all this time?"

"And before Master started writing books to make money, why did we have to eat coarse grain and vegetables for two months?"

Zhong Qing looked up timidly, asking seriously.

"Uh..."

This question left Yi Feng feeling quite awkward.

It wasn't like he wanted to eat coarse grain and vegetables back then.

It's just that he was weak at the time.

But how could he explain this to his disciple?

He couldn't very well say he became an immortal overnight thanks to the system, could he?

That would make him seem like a nouveau riche, so undignified!

"Ahem, disciple," after a moment of silence, Yi Feng coughed and said earnestly, "To be honest, your Master is revealing his true self now. I am actually a supreme expert hidden in the mortal world, unconcerned with worldly affairs!"

"A supreme expert must have that mindset, that demeanor. Since I chose to immerse myself in mundane life, I cannot rely on my cultivation to achieve my goals!"

"Why?"

Zhong Qing looked up and asked.

"Uh, it affects cultivation!"

Yi Feng casually brushed it off.

"I see, Master is wise." Zhong Qing seemed to understand.

In the distance.

Chen Kunpeng, who was sweeping the ground, walked over.

"Ah, curiosity kills the cat!"

"When we first met, I felt there was a secret hidden within Yi Shizhu, definitely not the supreme expert everyone talked about. So, to uncover what Yi Shizhu really is, I deliberately stayed on the island for so long."

"After staying for so long, judging from various behaviors, it seems my guess was correct. Yi Shizhu was never a supreme expert before, and his cultivation was only recently acquired."

"But now it's just a guess. I still need to confirm with Yi Shizhu."

"And ask him what his secret is."

Chen Kunpeng walked towards Yi Feng's courtyard with a smile.

However.

Just as he reached the courtyard entrance, he overheard Yi Feng's conversation with his disciple, Zhong Qing.

His eyes widened instantly.

"It seems I was too hasty!"
