Chapter 197: The Legend (1/2)

”Legendary spiritual root?”

Everyone held a confused expression as they stared at Kong Yusheng for an explanation.

”Do you all remember that legendary cultivator that split the sky open?” Kong Yusheng held a solemn expression as he spoke in a deep tone.

”It was said that his spiritual root was an unprecedented one and had the power to comprehend anything in an instant. It was a fearsome talent because as long as the person is given enough time to study, no one would be able to challenge him.” He then added.

”D-Don't tell me?”

”Yes, Elder Tan, I have confirmed it with my eyes when I secretly spied on him.” Kong Yusheng nodded his head.

Everyone in the meeting turned silent as they realized a monster had just joined their sect as a disciple.

”M-May I ask for that disciple name?” Elder Tan raised his hand as he asked nervously.

Kong Yusheng gave him a glare and shrugged his shoulders.

”You should be asking Elder Jing and not me. After all, that disciple is going to boost our sect to new heights because of Elder Jing.”

Elder Tan shuddered as he slowly tilted his head to face Elder Jing.

Meanwhile, Elder Jing was the most shocked in the meeting room as she had never noticed Yang Wei being this special.

'I-Impossible, Yang Wei had that kind of spiritual root?' Elder Jing exclaimed inwardly.

She was so distracted that Elder Tan thought she was ignoring him on purpose after he tried to put the blame on her.

”E-Elder Jing, I apologize for my offense but can you at least not outright ignore me?” Elder Tan stuttered.

However, Elder Jing remained in a daze and Elder Shan giggled at this scenario.

She decided to elbow Elder Jing and whispered, ”Stop thinking now and look at Elder Tan's expression.”

Elder Jing snapped out of her daze as she glanced around. She then noticed everyone was staring at her.

”Why are you all looking at me?” Elder Jing asked in confusion. ”I'm not interested in any old fogeys so you can stop thinking about being in a relationship with me.”

Elder Tan almost vomited a mouthful of blood at Elder Jing's remark.

He was genuinely asking for the disciple's information yet Elder Jing accused him of trying to chase after her.

”Haha, Elder Jing, you are really a muddlehead sometimes,” Elder Shan couldn't help but tease Elder Jing. ”Elder Tan wished to know about your lovely medicine boy and not your affection.”

Elder Jing's expression darkened as she glared at Elder Tan. ”Are you trying to harm my disciple?”

Her tone was threatening and Elder Tan felt like collapsing into a coma.

”Why are you doing this to me?” Elder Tan screamed. ”I'm only asking for the disciple's information and wished to protect him at all cost.”
