Chapter 15: Fame Becomes Great, Elders Accept Disciples

Lu Chengfeng practiced swordsmanship for ten years but no one recognized him. But once he drew his sword, everyone knew about it. As the news of the sword-fighting arena spread, almost all the disciples of the sect knew of his existence.

At the age of only twenty, he had mastered the tenth level of swordsmanship. With one sword, he killed Xue Dulong, a master of the previous generation who had practiced hard for decades. The two sides fought on the stage, and it took no more than ten moves before he beheaded the enemy with one sword.

Such a young genius is already comparable to the evildoers in the inner peak's true teachings and has attracted everyone's attention.

"Lu Chengfeng is really a well-hidden person. No one had ever heard of his name in the past, but now he has become famous overnight, and his reputation has spread throughout the entire sect."

"Sooner or later, this kind of evildoer will enter the inner peak and become a true disciple. As long as he survives in the future, he will become another powerful existence that suppresses the foundation of our Yuncang Sword Sect."

"Hurry up and get in touch with this person to see if he is a good match for marriage. This person is definitely a potential dragon and will surely soar to the sky one day."

There were all kinds of people in the outer peaks, and I don't know how many of them had their own thoughts. After hearing the news, they all sent people to Bixiao Peak.

While the outside world was in turmoil, Lu Chengfeng had already returned to the mountain with the disciples of Bixiao Peak.

However, someone was already waiting for him on the mountain. After seeing Lu Chengfeng, the inner peak deacon who had met him once during the previous assessment smiled and said from a distance: "Junior Brother Lu, do you still remember me?"

Lu Chengfeng hurriedly took two quick steps, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Lu Chengfeng greets the steward."

"Why call me Steward? Just call me Senior Brother." He stopped Lu Chengfeng's movements while speaking. "Senior Brother, I came here to tell you the good news."

"You have passed all the sect's assessments, and your birth background has also been carefully investigated. The sect has determined that you have a clean background and outstanding qualifications, and you can enter the inner peak."

Lu Chengfeng was overjoyed when he heard this. Although he had expected this scene to happen, when the good news really came, he still couldn't help but feel excited.

Although the Yuncang Sword Sect has more than a hundred outer peaks, the sect's true teachings are all in the inner five peaks. Only the true disciples of the inner five peaks can be considered the direct descendants of the Yuncang Sword Sect.

"Thank you for telling me, Senior Brother. I'm sorry to trouble you to make an extra trip. Come in quickly. I'll ask my wife to make some tea." Lu Chengfeng said, and then asked a little embarrassedly, "It's my fault. I still don't know your name. What's your full name?"

"My surname is Zhou and my given name is Tong. I am also a disciple of the inner peak, but I am assigned to the Transmission Hall." Zhou Tong shook his head and said, "I made a special trip today. In addition to telling my junior brother the good news, I have another thing to do."

"Junior brother, I have already conveyed your performance in the assessment to the sect's top leaders in great detail. Two elders believe that your practice is in line with their inheritance, so they want to accept you as a disciple."

"This is a great joyous event. You should know that most of the inner peak disciples do not have a disciple. If the elders of the sect step into the martial arts world, each of them is a martial arts giant who can stir up a storm. Such people will not easily accept disciples."

"Junior brother, you have just passed the assessment, and two elders are already vying to accept you as a disciple. This is truly an enviable opportunity!"

When Lu Chengfeng heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. What Zhou Tong said was absolutely right. The elders of the inner peak were different from those of the outer peak. They were truly white jade pillars supporting the sky and purple gold beams spanning the sea.

Every inner peak elder is a peerless warrior who practices top-notch martial arts or even unique skills and has developed his own martial arts will. There are even elders who can control flying swords and kill people from a hundred steps away.

These elders were usually hard to find. Lu Chengfeng had been in the sect for so many years, but he had only heard of the existence of the inner peak elders, but had never seen them once.

He couldn't help but get a little excited. He was now involved in a dangerous and unpredictable feud because of Zhao Changzhen, and it even involved the treasure house and magical skills left by the powerful Black Shark Sanren who roamed the world hundreds of years ago. Lu Chengfeng's martial arts improved the fastest, but he felt a chill whenever he thought of Zhao Changzhen being killed alive by three or five swords that night.

The person in the dark was ruthless and acted without any scruples. He even dared to kill an outer peak elder in the sect. One can imagine how arrogant and confident he was.

Lu Chengfeng didn't dare to guarantee that he could survive a few moves at the hands of the man, not to mention that he was already married and had to be responsible for the beautiful wife at home.

The heavy responsibility weighing on him made him feel a little breathless.

Now, when he suddenly heard the great news that the elder was accepting a disciple, he suddenly felt that most of the pressure on his shoulders had dissipated.

As long as one can become a disciple of an inner peak elder, he will have a backer in the sect, and those people will have to think twice before taking action.

Anyone who dares to kill a disciple of an inner peak elder is doomed to die, no matter who he is. Even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, he will be hunted down.

In the past, the Yuncang Sword Sect had an incident where an elder and disciple were assassinated by a rival sect lurking in the sect. In the end, all those involved in the incident were killed without a single one being spared.

It is said that in order to avenge his disciple, the elder personally went to the martial arts world and captured 17 strongholds of the sect where the traitor was located. Countless people died at his hands.

Until finally, he cut off the mountain gate with a single sword, completely destroying the sect called Tieshan Sect and turning it into a legend.

As long as he had the protection of the sect's elders, Lu Chengfeng could practice in the sect with dignity and no longer have to worry about those messy people and things.

"Thank you, senior brother." Lu Chengfeng couldn't suppress a smile on his face.

"Hahaha, let's go. The two elders are waiting to summon you." Seeing his appearance, Zhou Tong also remembered the scene when he first became my disciple. He smiled and said, "One of the two elders is my master. Let's see if we have the fate to become my brothers and sisters under the same master."

At this time, Lu Chengfeng waved to Su Wanqing and Li Mo and said, "You go back first. I will return to the mountain immediately after I finish dealing with things here."

"Yes, senior brother!"

Su Wanqing and the others heard the conversation between Lu Chengfeng and Zhou Tong just now. The expressions on everyone's faces were full of shock and envy, and there was also a hint of fear.

Once they enter the inner peak, they are already people from two different worlds, not to mention that they have to worship the sect elders as their teachers. They are still destined to have a bright future, and the gap between them will become bigger and bigger from now on.

Looking at the departing backs of Lu Chengfeng and Zhou Tong from afar, Su Wanqing's goose yellow dress fluttered in the wind, with a strand of hair falling.

"I didn't expect that my senior brother would be such a monster. Could it be that there is really..."

She thought of her family's instructions and tasks, and her eyes became complicated.
