Gu Qingfeng returned to his residence at the Demon Suppression Bureau. It was already dawn.
As soon as he closed the door, he eagerly began experimenting with the Black Dragon Immortal Body.
He took out the Cicada Wing Sword and swung it fiercely. The sword trembled violently, its cutting frequency reaching at least a thousand times per second.
Then, he slashed the violently trembling sword against his own hand.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A series of sparks flew in all directions.
When he looked at his hand, not even a scratch was left on his skin.
Gu Qingfeng was overjoyed. Even a Dark-rank Spirit Weapon, known for its sharpness, couldn't leave a mark. The defense was incredibly strong.
The only regret was that he didn’t have an Earth-rank Spirit Weapon to test whether it could break through his defense.
And this was just his defense in a normal state—he hadn’t even fully activated his power yet.
Gu Qingfeng thought for a moment, then suddenly clenched his fist, his muscles tensing as he fully activated the Black Dragon Immortal Body.
In the next moment, a pitch-black light emanated from his body, and faint black patterns appeared on his skin.
Upon closer inspection, the black patterns were actually tiny, dense scales of a black dragon. The scales were faint, almost invisible unless one looked closely.
Though they appeared thin, only Gu Qingfeng could sense the immense defensive power contained within those delicate scales.
"System, if Blood Rebirth, Dragon Vein, and the advanced version of the Indestructible Golden Body are fused together, can they still be used?"
"They can. They are fused, not gone," the system replied succinctly as always.
This put Gu Qingfeng at ease. This time, he had struck gold!
He couldn’t help but look forward to three days from now. Even if Pu Yao were a stone, she would definitely be furious. Just thinking about it was thrilling!
If he could do this every three days, it would be absolutely amazing!
"Hahaha..." Gu Qingfeng began to laugh maniacally. He had been holding back for so long that he was almost suffocating. Now, he could finally let it all out.
At that moment, not far from Gu Qingfeng's residence, Li Qianren was walking slowly with an elderly man with white hair.
"Master Dan, I originally thought it would take you some time to arrive. I didn’t expect you to come today. In that case, Gu Qingfeng will be in your hands," Li Qianren said politely.
The white-haired man, referred to as Master Dan, replied respectfully, "Master Li, you’re too kind. If it weren’t for your help back then, this old man’s life would have been lost long ago. I am a man who repays kindness. After receiving your letter, I didn’t dare delay and came immediately. As for the small matter of taking on a disciple, please rest assured, Master Li. I will teach him everything I know. Moreover, if Gu Qingfeng is truly as talented as you say, I would be more than happy to have such a disciple. I should be the one thanking you for finding me such a promising student."
The two exchanged pleasantries as they walked toward Gu Qingfeng's residence.
Both of them were powerful martial artists, and before they even got close, they heard a strange, maniacal laughter coming from Gu Qingfeng's residence.
The laughter seemed to have been suppressed for a long time, erupting like a volcano, continuous and unrelenting.
The two men’s expressions turned slightly odd.
Master Dan couldn’t help but ask with a strange look, "Master Li, is this the Gu Qingfeng you mentioned?"
Even Li Qianren, who was usually expressionless and reserved, couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
He immediately recognized the laughter as Gu Qingfeng’s.
"Yes... that should be him," Li Qianren replied.
The two fell silent as they approached Gu Qingfeng’s door.
"Gu Qingfeng," Li Qianren called from outside the door.
From inside, Gu Qingfeng’s cheerful voice replied, "Hahaha... Who is it? It’s so early in the morning."
"Li Qianren," Li Qianren said, his voice cold, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Oh, it’s you, Old Li! Coming, coming!" Gu Qingfeng quickly ran to open the door.
Ever since he had gained strength comparable to a grandmaster, "Master Li" had successfully been promoted to "Old Li" in his mind. Such was the reality of life.
Old Li!?
Hearing this, both Li Qianren and Master Dan were stunned.
Master Dan gave a strange look at Li Qianren, whose face had turned as dark as coal, and suddenly felt that this disciple-taking mission might not be as simple as he had thought.
Click.
The door opened, revealing Gu Qingfeng’s sunny and handsome face.
"What’s up, Old Li? Why are you looking for me so early? And who’s this old man?" Gu Qingfeng asked in a familiar tone.
If there was a way to offend two people with one sentence, Gu Qingfeng had just succeeded.
Li Qianren’s face darkened. "What did you call me?"
"Old Li," Gu Qingfeng said naturally, as if he had been calling him that for over a decade.
"Don’t be so stiff. You may be my boss, but it’s not work hours yet. During work hours, we’ll stick to our official roles, but outside of work, we’re just buddies. That’s what makes a good boss."
Li Qianren’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. He suppressed his anger, reminding himself not to make a scene in front of an outsider. So, he didn’t dwell on the name issue and quickly changed the subject.
"Gu Qingfeng, this is Dan Qiusheng, the sect master of the Danhe Sect and a master alchemist at the grandmaster level. He is also the teacher I’ve found for you. For the next year, you will follow Master Dan to the Danhe Sect to study alchemy and prepare for the Jade Dragon Secret Realm a year from now."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingfeng didn’t even have time to comment on Dan Qiusheng’s name. He was immediately shocked. "Go to the Danhe Sect for a year? No way."
He refused without hesitation. What a joke! What kind of place was the Danhe Sect? If he went there, what would happen to his dear little corpse demon waiting alone at home? What if his dear Pu Yao couldn’t find him?
Make him leave the Demon Suppression Bureau? Dream on!
Li Qianren was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Gu Qingfeng to dare refuse him to his face. But then again, this was the same person who had just called him "Old Li." What couldn’t he do?
Li Qianren was now somewhat confused. He vaguely remembered how, just a few days ago, Gu Qingfeng had been polite and respectful, calling him "Master Li." Why, in just a few days, had he not only started calling him "Old Li" but also dared to refuse him directly? What on earth had happened during these few days?
Beside him, Dan Qiusheng was also fuming. As a master alchemist and the sect master of the Danhe Sect, he was a renowned figure. Countless people begged to become his disciple, and he often refused. Yet today, someone had the audacity to reject him?
"This is an order. You must go," Li Qianren said coldly.
"Orders don’t work on me. I said I’m not going, and that’s final," Gu Qingfeng shot back. He had always been one to bully the weak and fear the strong. Now that he was strong, he naturally chose to bully the weak.
Li Qianren’s breathing hitched. It had been years since anyone dared to refuse him to his face, let alone twice!
"Gu Qingfeng, do you know the consequences of disobeying an order?" Li Qianren’s tone grew even harsher.
Gu Qingfeng smirked. "Old Li, don’t try to scare me with that official nonsense. I’m telling you now, I’m not going to the Danhe Sect. If you force me, you’ll have to find someone else for the Jade Dragon Secret Realm a year from now."
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both.

Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
