Chapter 35

The inner sect disciples of the Great Mystery Sect all had their own small courtyards. Although they were not that big, compared to those of the outer sect disciples, they were like heaven and earth.

Su Chen pushed open the door and saw the quaint decoration.

There was a small pond, a fake mountain, and two rooms.

One was the bedroom, and the other was a cultivation room. They were extremely clean.

The entire courtyard was spotless. Clearly, someone had already helped him clean it.

Su Chen glanced around and nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he walked straight toward the cultivation room.

The layout of the cultivation room was very simple. There was only one futon.

He casually glanced around and sat down on the futon, starting to immerse himself in cultivation.

…

Time flew by.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

In Su Chen’s small courtyard, a tall and straight figure holding a three-foot-long sword was waving in the courtyard.

The sword swept out, and an ear-piercing sound could be heard as the vacant space was shattered by the sword.

After practicing for a long time, Su Chen slowly stopped and put away the sword in his hand. A layer of faint purple light surrounded him, making him look like a god.

“Five days, I have finally converted all the spiritual energy in my body into the attributes of Purple Radiance Heavenly Net Sutra… I’ve improved greatly in Star Shattering Sword Art and already cultivated it to small attainment.”

During the five days, he had been cultivating in the small courtyard.

He had converted his cultivation methods into the Purple Radiance Heavenly Net Sutra, and he had also cultivated Star Shattering Sword Art to small attainment.

Then he began to cultivate other martial arts.

He understood that if he ran after two hares, he would catch neither.

He didn’t know if he was fast or slow in cultivation.

After all, he had no reference.

However, he estimated that this cultivation speed should be considered above the average of the inner sect.

“The Star Shattering Sword Art and the Star Shattering Slash have the same effect. I reckon that I’ll be able to cultivate it to grand attainment after a while, and then I’ll be able to start cultivating other martial arts.”

Su Chen muttered.

The Star Shattering Sword Art and the Star Shattering Slash were both martial arts known for their explosive power.

He had the cultivation insights of Star Shattering Slash, so he could get twice the result with half the effort and have rapid progress in cultivating Star Shattering Sword Art.

Just as Su Chen was about to continue cultivating, there was suddenly a rattling on the door.

“Senior Brother Su Chen, are you in?”

Su Chen frowned slightly.

“Yes, you are?”

“Senior Brother Su Chen, there’s an old man outside the mountain gate who claims to be the butler of the Su family in Tianyang City. He says he’s looking for you.”

“Hmm?”

Su Chen froze when hearing that.

The Su family was his family in this world. They were in actual control of Tianyang City.

Ever since he joined the Great Mystery Sect, the Su Family rarely disturbed his cultivation.

Every new year, the Su family would send servants to invite him back.

However, there was still a long time before the new year. Why would the Su family send someone over today?

Did something happen to the family?

For a moment, Su Chen was also a little confused, but he still replied, “Let him in!”

“Yes, Senior Brother!”

The disciple outside the door quickly agreed and then turned around to leave.

Listening to the footsteps getting further and further away, Su Chen lowered his head and looked at his clothes.

He had been cultivating for the past five days, and his clothes had long been wetted by sweat.

“There’s still some time before the butler arrives. I’ll take this opportunity to take a bath first.”

As he spoke, Su Chen put away his sword and walked toward the bedroom.

…

Not long after.

Outside Su Chen’s small courtyard, a disciple dressed in the outer sect uniform brought a white-haired, hunchbacked old man to the courtyard.

“This is Senior Brother Su Chen’s residence.”

The outer sect disciple stopped and pointed at the small courtyard in front of him as he said kindly.

“Thank you, young man.”

The old man cupped his hands slightly at the outer sect disciple.

“This is what I should do. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”

The outer sect disciple hurriedly returned the bow when he saw this, taking no chance.

After all, this old man was a member of Senior Brother Su Chen’s family, so he dared not neglect him.

He had personally witnessed Su Chen’s performance in the outer sect trial that day.

He respected Su Chen very much, and naturally, he also respected the people in his family a lot.

“Alright, take care.”

The old man chuckled.

After sending off the outer sect disciple, the old man came to the front of the courtyard and sized it up. His old eyes were filled with gratification.

“I didn’t expect that the last time I saw Eldest Young Master, he was only in the sixth level of the Qi Gathering Realm. When I see him again, he has become an inner disciple of the Great Mystery Sect.”

Su Chen was only in the sixth level of the Qi Gathering Realm during the last New Year, but he had become an inner disciple in just three months.

What an amazing progress!

“Eldest Young Master has become an inner sect disciple. Why didn’t he inform the family?”

The old man stroked his beard with one hand and hammered his hunched back with the other, shaking his head slightly.

However, at this moment.

A crisp voice rang out.

“Creak…”

The door of the small courtyard in front of the old man opened itself without any wind.

Before the old man could react, his vision blurred. Suddenly, a handsome young man in a white robe appeared.

Then, an urbane voice said, “Uncle Fu, long time no see.”

“Eldest… Eldest Young Master?”

After not seeing him for three months, the old man sized up the young man in front of him with some bewilderment.

At first glance, he felt the young man in front of him was very handsome!

At second glance, he felt that the young man was exuding an unparalleled charm.

In the outside world, there would probably be a large number of female cultivators who would fall in love with him.

But then, he realized that something was wrong.

To be able to become the Su family’s butler, the old man was naturally not an ordinary person. His strength had already reached the ninth level of the Qi Sea Realm.

However, even with his strength, he did not notice when Su Chen appeared.

“We haven’t seen each other for three months, and you could barely recognize me?”

Su Chen said with a smile as he looked at the old man in front of him.

“Well… Eldest Young Master, you’ve changed so much!”

Uncle Fu sighed.

If he didn’t listen to the voice, he would have thought that he had mistaken the person for someone else.

Uncle Fu raised his head and looked at Su Chen. His eyes were filled with gratification as he said with a smile, “If I’m not wrong, you are already at the first level of the Qi Sea Realm, right?”

“Uncle Fu, you have a good eye!”

Su Chen nodded with a smile.

He didn’t cultivate any secret technique that could conceal his aura, so he couldn’t hide his cultivation and aura either.

Usually, those who were stronger than him could easily see through his cultivation.

This brought mixed results. At the very least, there were fewer hidden dangers that people would mock him.

Anyone who wasn’t a fool would know that Su Chen was a young person of outstanding talent just by looking at his cultivation.

If possible, he would try not to provoke them.

Of course, no one in the Great Mystery Sect dared to mock Su Chen.

After all, his name had already been well known throughout the Great Mystery Sect.
