History’s Number 1 Founder

Li Xingfei’s parents looked at their daughter in front of them, but their expressions turned serious. They weren’t just conversing leisurely. It was now a conversation between Great Void Sect cultivators and a Celestial Sect of Wonders’ cultivator.

When the Great Void Sect completed the two set of mantras, the Celestial Sect of Wonders would also be feedbacked. They would benefit at the same time.

However, it was very difficult to gauge who would benefit more.

To Li Xingfei’s parents as well as the majority of the people, the Great Void Sect was bound to benefit more.

As they thought till here, Li Xingfei’s parents hesitated in the face of such a huge gift.

Li Xingfei shook her head as she listened to her father’s question, “Master only said that he can bring all these to the both of you. He didn’t explicitly say how you should deal with them. If the both of you are doubtful, you can contact your sect’s elders and tell them the situation.”

Li Xingfei’s father said, “Alright. For such a serious matter, it’s better for the higher-ups to interact with one another.”

Since this wasn’t an underhand transaction that Li Xingfei was making, such a matter wasn’t meant to be dealt with by people of their level.

Li Xingfei didn’t have much authority either. Her role was just a messenger.

She became the messenger because of her special identity. After realizing that they had been exposed by the Celestial Sect of Wonders, Li Xingfei’s parents were also slightly embarrassed in front of their own daughter.

Although they didn’t say it out or exchanged their views about the matter, Li Xingfei’s parents were getting increasingly uneasy and doubtful as the Celestial Sect of Wonders grew stronger and stronger over the years.

To them, their recognition of the Great Void Sect never once wavered.

However, they were starting to doubt whether the Great Void Sect was still the best choice for their own daughter’s future.

After learning about everything and hearing of Li Xingfei’s stance, the both of them weren’t angry or frustrated. Rather, they were relieved.

However, the both of them were stunned by this feeling that they experienced.

They were once descendant disciples of the Great Void Sect, but their confidence in the sect had wavered to such a standard.

The both of them looked at each other and were silent. Li Xingfei’s mother was speechless as she sat beside Li Xingfei. Li Xingfei’s father walked out of the house. As he walked, he sighed, “We can’t directly contact our sect. We need to proceed towards somewhere to leave a mark. After that, they will contact us.”

Li Xingfei nodded her head. This was expected. If they possessed a spiritual treasure that enabled them to contact their sect, Zhu Yi wouldn’t have been tricked when he came to investigate many years back even if Li Xingfei could be kept out of the loop.

Li Xingfei’s mother looked at Li Xingfei and asked, “Chen Jun, do you blame us?”

“I don’t blame the both of you. It’s just that it sounded very unbelievable when I heard about it in the beginning.” Li Xingfei said calmly. “Although your own self-interests were involved, I know that the both of you were just following the most stable direction that the both of you know about. The both of you were just carving out a path for me and hope that my life will be smooth-sailing.”

“However, I have my own thinking too. It’s not because the sect is prospering and Grandmaster is dominating the Grand Celestial World. Even if the sect is weaker than the Great Void Sect, I won’t leave the Celestial Sect of Wonders.”

Li Xingfei grabbed hold onto her mother’s palms and said calmly, “Let’s say, let’s just say that the Great Void Sect and my sect enter a war with each other and my sect perishes, I will perish alongside my sect. I just hope that I won’t have to fight the both of you.”

Although she put it in this way, Li Xingfei’s expression didn’t even change slightly. She was confident in her own sect and didn’t think that such a day would come.”

Li Xingfei’s mother laughed bitterly as she heard her words, “Silly girl. If it’s just like what you say, that such a day comes, why will your father and I let you walk that path?”

Li Xingfei said after remaining silent for a while, “Mommy, my master allowed me to bring the mantra for the both of you to take a look. The both of you can actually try to reverse the effects of the Mantra of the Great Oblivion and heal your Dao hearts. After the Karmic Theory Debate then, the Virtuous Zen Master managed to do so successfully.”

“The both of you don’t have to pass the Mantra of the Great Oblivion that the both of you have cultivated to my sect either. You just need to refer to it. There may be hope.”

Li Xingfei’s mother watched her silently. Li Xingfei continued, “The both of you don’t seem to be part of the Great Void Sect now either…”

“If your father and I managed to recover with the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ mantra, we’ll owe a debt to the Celestial Sect of Wonders. Moreover, even if such a matter didn’t exist, your heart still belongs with the Celestial Sect of Wonders. We don’t want to put you in a spot either.” Li Xingfei’s mother shook her head and seemed slightly out of sorts, “But I’m a Great Void Sect disciples since I accepted discipleship on Mount Baiyun. When my Dao heart was crushed, it has as much to do with me as the sect’s mantra. I wasn’t forced to leave the sect to lead an ordinary life either. I just hope to reform my Dao heart again.”

“We received instructions to send you to the Celestial Sect of Wonders, but we were also willing to do so. Even when we became ordinary, we still wanted to contribute to the sect.”

“Our sect doesn’t owe us anything. Why will we want to betray it?” Li Xingfei’s mother looked with a benevolent look. “The Mantra of the Great Oblivion isn’t heartless. Chen Jun, you’re loyal to your sect. But aren’t we just the same as you?”

Li Xingfei nodded her head and answered, “Yes, mommy. My words were too harsh just now.”

She finally came to realize as she spoke. After all, they were her parents and they were just concerned about her.

Li Xingfei’s mother extended her palms and caressed Li Xingfei’s hair. She helped Li Xingfei to neaten her hair and smiled, “Although we are from different paths, I’ve to admit that your sect is indeed very magnanimous. They’re very nice to the disciples and allowed you to come find us first before anything else.”

She laughed bitterly as she said till here, “However, your master and the rest are indeed extraordinary. If they really just deduced the Mantra of the Great Oblivion from thin air and actually achieved something practical, I must say that I find it very unbelievable.”

Li Xingfei smirked, “Didn’t you find it unbelievable too when I cultivated my Cosmic Form and reached the Advanced Nascent Soul Stage?”

Li Xingfei’s mother laughed and shook her head, “That’s true. There are even others from your sect whose speed of cultivation is so fast that your father and I can’t believe it. After all, when we were on Mount Baiyun…”

As she spoke, she shook her head.

The Great Void Sect was once touted as a talent-gathering ground and had many talented youths. Not only were their cultivators extraordinary, their speed of cultivation was also very rapid. They were much superior to most other sects and powers in the Divine Lands.

Although they didn’t have many disciples, their disciples were all the best of the best. Anyone of them could be a revelation in the outside world.

Right now, the Great Void Sect was still superior to most other sects and powers in this aspect. However, their reputation wasn’t as great as before.

That’s because the Celestial Sect of Wonders completely trounced them in this area.

Li Xingfei’s mother held onto her daughter’s palms and lifted her head to look at the ceiling. She muttered, “Let’s leave it to the elders. We can’t interfere with the rest of the matter.”

Li Xingfei nodded her head silently. She sat with her mother and the entire place seemed to regain peace once again.

Lin Daohan had also contacted Li Xingfei’s father. After a momentary silence, Lin Daohan only simply said, “Since they have already uncovered your identities and your daughter is determined, let’s cut all our arrangements. The both of you shall just continue to leave in peace.”

“The sect will make its decision on the mantra at a later time. If it can really help the both of you to recover your masteries, we won’t make it difficult for you. After the both of you recover, you can return to Mount Baiyun or follow your daughter to Mount Kunlun. It’s up to the both of you. We won’t put the both of you in a spot even if you choose to go to Mount Kunlun.”

After cutting the connection, Lin Daohan lifted his head to look into the sky, “It’s really the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ doing when we sensed someone meddling with the Mantra of the Great Oblivion and Yin-yang Mantra of the Void…”

Whatever that was about to happen wasn’t made known to the Li family. It became a matter between the Great Void Sect and Celestial Sect of Wonders.

Both parties kept their correspondence a secret and no outsiders knew about anything. However, the top cultivators in the Grand Celestial World could sense changes in the Great Dao of the Heavens and Earth.

In the Tripitaka Block on Mount Kunlun, Zhu Yi, Wang Lin, Yang Qing and Li Yuanfang sat and faced each other.

Li Yuanfang said gently, “Lin Daohan can’t be underestimated.

Zhu Yi tapped his finger with a special rhythm, “His thinking is along the same line as Yan Nanlai and the Tai Yi Holy Man, as they conform to the mindset of the Conservative Party. It’s not really a surprise for him to have such a reaction.”

Yang Qing looked at Wang Lin, “Let Tian Chi remain with her family for a while longer?”

Wang Lin answered, “It depends on her. This obstacle has been overcome. It shouldn’t be too difficult for her in the future.”

Yang Qing nodded his head and said, “That sounds fine to me. Come to think about it, has Fourth Senior and Little Junior exited their retreat?”

Li Yuanfang replied, “Fourth Senior has succeeded but she’s nurturing her magic treasure. Little Junior is still slightly off.”

He creased his brows, “It’s been longer than expected, but we don’t know what’s the reason.”

Yang Qing replied, “She knows what she’s doing. Rather than the both of them, I’m more worried than Tianhao can’t return in time. There’s also eldest senior.”

“It’s fine if the rest are not around. But if eldest senior’s not there, it’ll be too…”

Zhu Yi and Wang Lin shook their head in laughter as they heard his words. Li Yuanfang was serious as he answered, “It’s still two days to the deadline that eldest senior set.”
