Following that, Zhao Hede and Su Can brought Fang Yuan to get to know the third senior Wang Chen.
However, Wang Chen was a taciturn person, he did not speak much. He only nodded slightly to show that he understood when he saw them, before continuing to cultivate behind closed doors.
“Don’t mind him, your third senior is like this, you will get used to it. He is not a bad person.”
Zhao Hede patted his shoulder and said, “It’s getting late. Hurry up and go back and rest. Maybe Master will call you over tomorrow morning.”
Fang Yuan nodded. “Thank you for taking care of me, seniors. I will leave first.”
“Go on.”
Zhao Hede and Su Can waved goodbye at the same time.
That night, after Fang Yuan returned to the small inner court courtyard, he placed the gains from today on the table.
Just as he was about to count them, he heard someone knocking on the door outside the courtyard.
When he went out to take a look, it was the examiner again.
“Master is looking for me?” Fang Yuan guessed.
The examiner smiled slightly. “That’s right. The sect master has summoned you to the side hall.”
“Martial Uncle, I’m not familiar with the main peak. Please lead the way.”
“You’re still calling me Martial Uncle? You’re already a personal disciple.”
“It’s easy to say. I’m too lazy to change it.”
The examiner couldn’t help but laugh and made a gesture of invitation, walking side by side with Fang Yuan.
With the help of the teleportation array, they arrived at their destination in a few minutes.
“The sect master is probably going to teach you a secret technique. It’s not convenient for me to be here, so I won’t send you in.”
“Thank you.”
Fang Yuan watched the other party leave and turned to walk into the hall.
This time, Gu Zhenren was watering some flowers and plants.
Fang Yuan strode forward, “Master, you were looking for me?”
“You’re here, sit by the side and wait.”
Gu Zhenren’s hands didn’t stop moving.
Fang Yuan wasn’t in a hurry and waited patiently.
Seeing Gu Zhenren watering the flowers and plants, a sense of leisure and comfort spread from the bottom of his heart.
After about ten minutes, Gu Zhenren put down the hose and walked into the hall steadily.
“Come with me.”
Fang Yuan followed behind him without saying anything.
Gu Zhenren then sat down on the main seat and looked at Fang Yuan with a gentle gaze. “Fang Yuan, you were watching from the side for a long time just now. Do you have any questions?”
Was he testing him?
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment and began to think.
This was definitely not a boring question like ‘how could Master have the leisure to nurture mortal flowers and plants’. There must be a deeper meaning behind it.
Recalling that Gu Zhenren’s every move was extremely natural, Fang Yuan suddenly had some understanding.
“Master, can you cultivate by watering plants?”
Gu Zhenren laughed heartily. “Of course.”
It seemed that he had asked the right question.
Gu Zhenren’s eyes revealed an expression of admiration. “I didn’t expect that out of you four disciples, you would be the only one to ask this question.”
“Ah?” Fang Yuan was a little curious. “What did the other three ask?”
“Ask?”
Gu Zhenren smiled helplessly. “Your first senior said that he would water for me in the future, so I won’t have to do it myself. Your second senior said that he would ask the servant disciples to do such a small thing, so he gave the same answer as your eldest senior.”
“What about third senior?”
Gu Zhenren shook his head. “You should have gotten to know him today. What do you think his response was?”
Fang Yuan recalled his third senior’s indifferent expression and said directly, “I think there’s a high chance that Third Senior said that he had no questions.”
“That’s his response.”
Gu Zhenren sighed softly. “In the words of the mortal world, Your third senior is a martial arts fanatic. He only knows how to cultivate and doesn’t care about anything else. However, this has also formed his dustless mind. Even though he became my disciple, his cultivation realm is the highest among your three seniors. I also think highly of him.”
The so-called dustless mind meant that a person could only do one thing without any distractions. Day after day, year after year, there wouldn’t be any other distracting thoughts.
It was just a saying, there was no substance to it.
“Third Senior is indeed amazing.”
Fang Yuan agreed very much. It was very rare for someone to be able to completely devote themselves to cultivation. As long as their talent wasn’t bad, their realm would definitely be able to pull apart a great distance from their peers.
“However, the person I think the most highly of now is you.”
Gu Zhenren changed his tone, “Not to mention talent and cultivation, just based on the answers on your answer sheet, your state of mind is not inferior to your third senior.”
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment. He had written himself so selfishly in the answer sheet, how could he be compared to his third senior who had the dustless mind?
Gu Zhenren seemed to see Fang Yuan’s confusion and smiled. “Selfishness is a Gu master’s way of settling down, who can be not selfish? If you and I can’t, then your third senior can’t either.”
“It is rare that you are selfless in your selfishness, giving to your family, being kind to your friends, and caring for your lover.”
“There are very few people in the entire Gu Immortal Sect who have such a clear distinction between love and hate.”
Fang Yuan was embarrassed by his praise. “Master is too kind.”
Gu Zhenren let out a long sigh. He waved his sleeves, using the majestic spiritual essence as a medium to send a box to Fang Yuan.
“After Wan Qian’s incident, you were the only one in the entire sect who was willing to help her. I can see the shadow of the past in you.”
It sounded like Gu Zhenren was a person with a story, but he had never heard of the existence of the sect master’s wife. He must have missed it for some reason.
“Cultivate well, the Scarlet Flame Mystic Realm is not a simple place. Even I do not dare to enter it easily. Remember, you can only wander around outside, do not enter any ruins, it will be good if you can find Yang type Gu worms, but if you cannot find them, we will think of another way.”
“I understand.”
Gu Zhenren smiled and pointed at the box. “Your foundation is pretty good, and you do not need me to give you any more pointers. I can only give you a Vegetation Three Stars Cave Gu to help you cultivate.”
Fang Yuan opened it and saw that there was indeed a Gu worm inside, and it was the type that had already hatched.
[Vegetation Three Stars Cave Gu]
Level: Tier 1
Type: Support
Quality: Platinum
Skill: [Cave Dwelling]
[Cave Dwelling] : Can be placed on the ground to form a building, cultivating inside will result in a large increase in efficiency.
…
Just as Gu Zhenren had said, it was just a Gu worm to support cultivation.
Gu Zhenren’s voice rang out, “After choosing your new place, directly use Cave Dwelling.”
Fang Yuan nodded. Remembering that his Cloud Moon Gu needed to absorb the delicate fragrance of a virgin to cultivate, he asked, “Master, may I ask where in the sect are there the most female disciples who don’t have Dao Partners?”
The Gu Zhenren was stunned, not expecting Fang Yuan to ask such a question.
Could it be that this little disciple of his was lecherous?
Having Wan Qian was not enough, and he wanted a few more?
He answered a little awkwardly, “The sect disciples all chose their own residence on the mountain top. I’m not sure either.”
“Alright then.”
Fang Yuan felt that it was true. The sect disciples had chosen their own residence to begin with. Asking the high and mighty sect master would definitely not yield any results.
It was better to have the cave dwelling near Senior Wan.. The cold poison in her body was much more delicious than an ordinary virgin’s delicate fragrance.
