Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"What?"

Hearing this, Chen Tian stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Are you saying that the Sect Leader wants to see me?"

The one who ran up to him was a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old, who was panting heavily as he nodded and said, "Yes, Senior Brother Chen, the Sect Leader personally instructed me to ask you to go to him."

Upon hearing this, Chen Tian's eyes narrowed, then he raised his head and looked towards the terrace of the Ascending Immortal Pavilion, finding that Real Person Lan Yang was also looking at him with a smile.

Chen Tian frowned, then nodded to the boy and said, "Alright, I understand, please lead the way, Senior Brother."

"Yes, Senior Brother Chen, please come this way."

The boy didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly guided Chen Tian towards where Real Person Lan Yang was.

The other disciples of the Immortal Feather Sect, upon seeing this, also became curious, wondering what had happened.

In fact, not to mention them, even Chen Tian was puzzled, guessing nervously, "Could it be that the secret about me has been discovered by Real Person Lan Yang?"

However, after a second thought, Chen Tian denied it in his heart, because if the secret of him possessing the Immortal Clan bloodline had really been exposed, then Real Person Lan Yang wouldn't have sent his personal attendant to specially welcome him.

But if it wasn't this reason, then what could it be?

Chen Tian thought for a while, but couldn't come up with any ideas, so he simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He would deal with things as they came, and adapt to the circumstances.

Under the guidance of the boy, Chen Tian soon arrived in front of Real Person Lan Yang, and Lan Wu, Lan Xian, as well as the Yao-named woman from Hundred Flowers Valley, were all here.

Chen Tian didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly paid his respects respectfully, saying, "Disciple Chen Tian greets Sect Leader."

Faced with Chen Tian's humble attitude, Real Person Lan Yang stroked his beard, seemingly very satisfied, and said with a smile, "No need to be so polite, rise."

"Thank you, Master."

Chen Tian said his thanks, then raised his head again, stood in place, and waited silently.

Real Person Lan Yang sized up Chen Tian, then opened his mouth and said, "I ask you, what realm have you cultivated to now?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Tian's heart skipped a beat, but he still hurriedly replied, "Reporting to Sect Leader, this disciple is untalented and has only cultivated to the first layer of the Spiritual Awakening stage."

"Hmm?"

Real Person Lan Yang frowned upon hearing this and said, "Extend your hand."

Chen Tian didn't know what Real Person Lan Yang wanted to do, but he knew that he had no choice at this time, so with unease, Chen Tian slowly extended his hand.

Real Person Lan Yang grabbed Chen Tian's hand and closed his eyes to investigate.

Chen Tian suddenly felt a chilling coldness coming from Real Person Lan Yang's hand, this coldness was extremely overbearing, and as soon as it entered Chen Tian's body, it rampaged around recklessly, circulating a full cycle around Chen Tian's meridians.

At the same time, Real Person Lan Yang's expression was uncertain, sometimes frowning, sometimes pondering, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chen Tian was so nervous that he almost forgot to breathe, he was really worried that Real Person Lan Yang would see through the fact that he had merged with the Immortal Clan's bloodline.

And in this state of anxiety, the cold energy that had invaded Chen Tian's body finally disappeared, and Real Person Lan Yang reopened his eyes, took another curious look at Chen Tian, and slowly said, "Indeed, it is the first layer of the Spiritual Awakening stage."

Hearing Real Person Lan Yang's words, Chen Tian breathed a long sigh of relief, it seemed that he hadn't discovered the secret about him.

"Hmph, Senior Brother, I already said that he's just a piece of trash, what are you still doubting?"

At this time, Lan Wu, who was on the side, looked at Chen Tian and said with a cold snort.

After hearing these words, Chen Tian's heart turned cold, nominally, Lan Wu was Chen Tian's master, but this master had never looked at Chen Tian properly and had always called Chen Tian trash, how could this not make one's heart cold.

Real Person Lan Yang didn't seem to like Lan Wu's words either, and immediately reprimanded him, "Junior Brother, what is your definition of trash? To defeat the ninth layer of the Spiritual Awakening stage with the cultivation of the first layer, is such a person still trash? Or, have you ever seen such a talented piece of trash?"

"I...I...This...This..."

Lan Wu was always clumsy with words and was most afraid of his Sect Leader Senior Brother, so after being reprimanded like this, his neck turned red, but he couldn't say anything.

Seeming to notice the awkwardness at this time, the Yao-named woman from Hundred Flowers Valley suddenly chuckled and smoothed things over, "Alright, I think First Seat Lan Wu was just speaking too quickly, Chen Tian is a disciple of Ruo Song Courtyard, that is, First Seat Lan Wu's disciple, there's no master under the heavens who doesn't love his disciple, isn't that right?"

As she spoke, the Yao-named woman gave Lan Wu a look.

Although Lan Wu wasn't smart, he wasn't stupid, and after hearing these words, he hurriedly responded, "Yes, that's what I meant."

After saying that, Lan Wu gave the Yao-named woman a grateful look, seemingly thanking her for smoothing things over for him.

The Yao-named woman chuckled again and said, "Actually, I have a question I want to ask this little brother, I wonder if I may?"

Hearing that the topic had been directed to him, Chen Tian hurriedly bowed and said, "Ask away."

The Yao-named woman smiled and nodded, asking, "Since you were able to defeat Pan Xingyu of the ninth layer of the Spiritual Awakening stage, but why did you take the initiative to admit defeat when facing Hu Aniu, who was weaker than Pan Xingyu?"

Chen Tian smiled upon hearing this, he had already guessed that he would be asked this question, so he hurriedly replied, "The reason is very simple, in fact, when fighting Senior Brother Pan, I had already used up almost all of the spiritual power in my body, if it wasn't for those ten Spirit Enhancement Pills, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to defeat Senior Brother Pan, so when facing Senior Brother Hu, I didn't have any extra spiritual power to activate the spirit talisman, admitting defeat was the best choice."

Everyone nodded upon hearing Chen Tian's words, that's right, continuously releasing hundreds of spirit talismans, and even activating the powerful Beast Summoning Immortal Talisman, with just the first layer of the Spiritual Awakening stage, it really couldn't be endured.

"Good, courageous and resourceful, and knows when to advance and retreat, truly an eye-opener."

As soon as Lan Yang said this, everyone looked at Chen Tian, they were also very puzzled by this question.
