Li Tian,
I was shocked. Looking at Liu Feng, seeing him create a movement skill of his own within just a few minutes of dangling in the air, trying to hold on to life, it brought back memories.
I looked down upon Liu Feng. He could not see me looking at him. He was not strong enough. The way he muttered weird words every few seconds confused me. He probably thought that I couldn't hear him, but if I couldn't even after growing so strong, was spending years of my life really worth it?
The way that he was trying to learn this new art was interesting. The pathways that he was sending his Qi through seemed predestined. It was not like he was trying new things out. It was like he knew exactly what he was doing.
"Did he actually learn this art somewhere else, and mistake it and thought that he created it on his own? He can't be that stupid. No one can forget learning an art." I thought as I kept watching.
Soon, the Qi started forming a pair of wings on his back. They were translucent, and anyone could mistakenly assume that they were just seeing things. But once they flapped, I could feel that they were generating an immense force.
These wings seemed frail, but they had some punch in them. He actually struck gold with this art. With this, not just moving up and down, he could move like an actual bird, and he could take a fight to the skies. That was an advantage that could cripple sword users.
I shook my head.
"I should just leave him here and let him figure out what he should do. I did enough. If I feed him everything in a spoon, then it will be pretty useless. And that man would probably waste me for doing that.
"Yeah. I should make sure that he turns out properly." I told myself.
"Sect Master! You have a message!" Someone was at my quarters. I sighed as I got up. Within seconds, I reappeared in front of the disciple who came here.
"The first elder's disciple? Why did he send you here? I saw that he was trying to get another disciple. Was he able to get to that boy?" I chuckled.
"Junior Brother Riyal is still thinking about it. But I am confident that he will realize that becoming master's disciple is the best thing that can happen for him. He will be able to further his sword dao." the disciple said.
"Well then. What happened? Why did your master send you here?"
"Master wishes to know why you brought that man's son here. He said that you know who I am talking about. He told me to ask you to meet him."
"Of course he does. Tell him that I am a bit busy. Tell him that I am just clearing a years old debt, and that after three years, the sect can just cut all ties with the boy. I am taking care of this, and I will clean up the mess that I made." I said.
"But master insisted that you meet him right now. He at least asked that you talk to him." saying this, the disciple handed a jade token to me.
I took it, and injected Qi into it.
"How serious do you think the problem is, First Elder, for you to waste a perfectly good transmission token on a simple conversation?" I said out loud.
The jade token buzzed.
"I knew that you would be adamant about this boy, so I had to talk to you. Are you an idiot? After so long, the Sect is finally growing. Do you want to destroy us?" a grainy voice came from the token.
"Do I want to destroy the sect? I have been respectful to you for so long. But do not cross a line. I have done more for this sect than all the elders combines. You should know that. We are ranked fifth of them all! We used to be dead last. And in the next meet, we might even grow one more. I suggest that you mind your words, First Elder." I snarled.
"But sheltering the son of that man! That is a crime that cannot be tolerated! There will be retaliation." the old man said.
"What will they do until the new king is chosen? They will have to wait. And until then, he will be under my protection. I told your disciple this. I will say this again. I am going to pay back the debt I owe him. For three years, Liu Feng will be under my protection." I said, crushing the jade token immediately after.
With this, I looked at the horizon.
"What kind of mess did you bring to me, Liu Qian? You should have stayed here. You just had to go get your foundation damaged, and lose your cultivation. Now, I have to fend for this all on my own." I shook my head, muttering.
The disciple left, with the message that I gave him. Now, I had a few things to do. As a sect master, there were many, many things that I had to do. Why people actually fought for this role escaped me. If it weren't for that old fogey forcing me, I would have stepped down ages ago.
I stepped out of my quarters. As the sect leader, obviously, I was in the tallest of the twelve peaks that surrounded the sect. And I could see the whole sect just from where I stood.
I glanced at the inner circle. This was the inner sect, where that interesting girl was going. She was a peculiar one. According to Liu Qian, she was also going to be marrying Liu Feng. He is a lucky one, that's for sure.
"I shouldn't have these thoughts now. Let me just go check on Huan'er." I thought to myself. With the snap of my fingers, my face and body started morphing. Instantly, I changed my form to look like Liu Feng.
My clothes also changed, and I descended from the Peak.
It was time to go have some fun.
