Chapter 276 Retrieving Honor
At Zhe Liang's words, a smile graced his lips.
A glint reappeared in his eyes as he glanced toward the direction of the imperial city, bowing respectfully.
"Master, I will not disappoint you."
Zhe Liang murmured softly, then turned to Zhongren beside him, and to Gu Xiaoqi, who feigned an air of maturity.
"Both of you, too, must cultivate diligently."
"As we venture to the Underworld, our paths shall cross again at the pinnacle!"
Leaving behind a promise of reunion at the peak.
After embracing them briefly, Zhe Liang descended the teahouse alone.
Seeing this, Black Abyss followed suit.

"We bid farewell."
Fierce Fire cast a glance at Gu Xiaoqi, brimming with reverence and reluctance.
If he could escort a descendant of the ancient gods to ascend to the Demon Realm, the rewards would be beyond imagination!
But even if he were beaten to death, he wouldn't dare to broach the subject.
The people around Gu Lan had learned about it from other dynasties before coming to the Jing Nation.
That descendant of the ancient gods was named Gu Xiaoqi.
Whether it was in terms of bloodline purity or relations, she was closely linked to Gu Lan.
So, in the end, he left with a sense of self-awareness.
"I always feel those two envoys' gazes are rather peculiar."
"But just now, Zhe Liang's words suddenly gained such elegance, did he learn from the master? ...We shall see if he becomes more formidable when we meet at the pinnacle."
Gu Xiaoqi raised a small fist toward the direction Zhe Liang departed, punching with determination.
She lifted her chin, her eyes showing a rare longing.
Zhongren remained silent, only gazing resolutely in the direction Zhe Liang had left.
...
"At this moment, I am in the courtyard of Gu Mansion."
In the evening, as he emerged from the Meditation Hall, Gu Lan silently recited.
In an instant, his figure vanished from the spot.
"The sun is shining, the scenery is beautiful, Old Yang I rise early and sleep well, my body grows stronger with each passing day..."
In the evening breeze, Old Yang had just finished a set of Eight Section Brocade, and his spirit instantly rejuvenated.
Every morning and evening, without fail, Old Yang practiced the Eight Section Brocade.
Turning around, a figure caught his eye.
Old Yang's face lit up instantly, stepping forward to greet.
"Young Master, you've returned!"
"Old Yang, you seem to grow younger with each passing day!"
Gu Lan approached familiarly, patting Old Yang's shoulder.
At the same time, with this pat, he infused Old Yang with a stream of true qi.
Chen Feng raised his head and glanced lightly at Gu Lan.
In an instant, there was a sense of illusion... It seemed as if all the opportunities that had slipped away from him were returning!
The senior was indeed his great opportunity, something he should have realized long ago... Chen Feng was ecstatic.
With just that fleeting glance earlier, Gu Lan's transcendent and ethereal demeanor had already won him over.
On the rooftop, Shangguan Yuyang sensed the situation inside the room.
Although Chen Feng exuded a powerful and mysterious Destiny, not weakening even in front of the envoys of the Three Realms.
But in front of Gu Lan, Chen Feng seemed like nothing more than an ordinary loser, even quite humble and eager to please... The gap was too wide; perhaps Destiny was just about having good luck!
Gu Lan looked up at the rooftop but didn't expose Shangguan's perception.
He turned to Chen Feng and began to ask questions.
"Are you Chen Feng?"
"Yes, senior."
"You were born in a small fishing village in the East Sea, orphaned at a young age, raised by the kindness of others, and looked down upon by your peers from a young age, is that correct?"
"Yes!"
"Your parents also left you a few things to turn misfortune into fortune, did they not?"
"Um... Yes!"
With each affirmation from Chen Feng, his surprise grew!
Even knowing such hidden matters...
It showed how much the senior valued him!
Even delving into his past experiences with such precision!
Chen Feng's eyes sparkled with conviction; the senior was indeed the great opportunity destined for him!
"Very well, you've done well."
"From the East Sea village to the capital of the Jing Nation, you must have endured a lot of hardships along the way, haven't you?" Gu Lan asked lightly.
At this question, Chen Feng instantly felt bitter, immediately recounting the tragic encounters and strokes of luck he had experienced along the way.
Many of them were small details not mentioned in the original text, but each was more absurd than the last.
Even Gu Lan couldn't help but sigh upon hearing them; if it weren't for being the protagonist, anyone experiencing such trials along the way would have died a hundred deaths by now, right?
Only with such Destiny could one thrive in the Six Realms even with mediocre talent.
Gu Lan recalled the timeline...
Forget it, the timeline had long been messed up.
By the timeline, Chen Feng should have ascended to the Immortal Realm by now, suffering in the Blissful Immortal Palace... Well, fortunately, he had indirectly rescued him.
"Senior, please accept me as your disciple!"
Chen Feng suddenly performed a grand ceremony for the apprentice.
This sudden move caught Gu Lan off guard.
Even the woman on the eaves was stunned!
Wasn't this guy just tearfully recounting his painful experiences a moment ago? How did the narrative suddenly switch to wanting to apprentice and learn?
And he even wanted to apprentice under the prestigious Tianji Pavilion's honored master right off the bat.
Destiny Boy, could you please retrieve your dignity?
