Li Yuanba had never taken on a disciple before, and even his true self, Li Shiming, was without disciples, so Lou Wu was truly his first disciple in the real sense.
However, accepting a disciple isn’t that simple, and an initiation ceremony must be held upon returning to Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
These matters will be handled by Great Cultivator Lou, so Li Yuanba doesn’t need to expend much effort.
"Lou Wu, how did you get injured?" Li Yuanba asked curiously.
Although Lou Wu was at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, he was the son of Great Cultivator Lou, so he likely carried valuable items.
Moreover, the tasks Lou Wu undertook couldn’t possibly exceed his own stage, and even if he wanted, Great Cultivator Lou wouldn’t agree to him taking on tasks beyond his capacity.
For soone to injure Lou Wu this badly, it wasn’t sothing a regular Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioner could achieve.
"Master, my task was at a resource point guarded by three Nascent Soul Early Stage practitioners. But when I attacked the site, I encountered a group of cultivators who ambushed . If not for my father’s life-saving Jade Talisman, I wouldn’t have returned!" Lou Wu replied helplessly.
Li Yuanba nodded; dealing with three Nascent Soul Early Stage practitioners was an appropriate task for Lou Wu, not overly difficult, yet providing sufficient pressure—an excellent test for Lou Wu.
"Was it White Emperor Sect’s reinforcents that ambushed you?" Li Yuanba asked.
"Probably not; their robes didn’t bear White Emperor Sect’s insignia!" Lou Wu shook his head and responded.
"Master Li, based on his description of the robe insignia, the Intelligence Departnt investigated and found the sect that ambushed him was Qianren Sect, a large sect allied with White Emperor Sect!" Great Cultivator Lou answered.
His own son was injured so severely, yet due to his identity, Great Cultivator Lou couldn’t directly intervene in battle, but he had thoroughly investigated the situation.
He initially planned to issue a task for the Sword Cultivators of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion to eliminate Qianren Sect, willing to personally fund the mission rewards.
Moreover, if Qianren Sect wasn’t dealt with before departing the West Yan Continent, he would secretly obliterate the sect.
If done discreetly, White Emperor Sect wouldn’t have ti to react.
"Do we have information on Qianren Sect?" Li Yuanba asked Great Cultivator Lou.
The relationship between him and Great Cultivator Lou was complex; from Lou Wu’s stance, they could be considered equals, but in terms of cultivation and Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, he was a generation below Great Cultivator Lou.
However, as an Alchemy Master capable of concocting Fourth Grade High-level Spirit Pills for a Great Cultivator, he commanded equal treatnt from any Great Cultivator.
Currently, Great Cultivator Lou regarded Li Yuanba as an equal, whether for his son’s sake or because of Li Yuanba’s status as an Alchemy Master, showing sufficient respect to Li Yuanba.
"Here is the intelligence gathered; Qianren Sect isn’t simple. If you intend to act against them, bring along several Sword Cultivators!" Great Cultivator Lou thought for a mont, handed a Jade Scroll to Li Yuanba, and advised.
Li Yuanba didn’t say much; since Lou Wu was his disciple, naturally, as a master, he had to avenge his disciple.
As for inviting Sword Cultivators to join, that depended on Qianren Sect’s combat power.
However, considering it a large sect, Qianren Sect housed Great Cultivators.
His Divine Sense penetrated the Jade Scroll; the intelligence provided by Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Intelligence Departnt was comprehensive, indicating a potential intelligence network long established in the West Yan Continent.
Qianren Sect, five thousand years ago, was a superpower, but due to the fall of mighty individuals, the sect never regained its forr glory, dropping from its superpower status.
This situation sowhat resembled the Fuliu Sect, but unlike Fuliu Sect, Qianren Sect no longer held aspirations of regaining its superpower status, with only three Great Cultivators remaining.
Inside Qianren Sect, the Jade Scroll’s records were exceedingly clear, detailing the number of Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioners and Nascent Soul Early Stage practitioners.
Additionally, it included Qianren Sect’s territorial map, marking their resource points and assets.
"Lou Wu, recover well; I’ll return now!" Li Yuanba secured the Jade Scroll, smiling at Lou Wu, then turned to bid farewell with a bow to Great Cultivator Lou, who escorted Li Yuanba out of the cave dwelling.
"Father, please don’t let Master venture into danger; Qianren Sect’s Nascent Soul Cultivator’s combat power is formidable, on par with superpower heritage!" Lou Wu spoke to Great Cultivator Lou after Li Yuanba left.
Li Yuanba saved his life, pulling him back from the brink of death and ensuring no harm lingered in his body, tantamount to being reborn.
Not to ntion Lou Wu had beco Li Yuanba’s disciple; in the Cultivation World, this was considered the closest relationship.
If not for the short ti spent with Li Yuanba, he might have equated him with his father, Great Cultivator Lou.
"Never underestimate your master; Xue Huan from White Emperor Sect fell by your master’s hand. His combat prowess far exceeds what appears on the surface!" Great Cultivator Lou shook his head and said calmly.
He wouldn’t prevent Li Yuanba from avenging Lou Wu—this was what a master should do.
Just as he would destroy Qianren Sect for Lou Wu when necessary.
This is a conflict between Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion and White Emperor Sect; with the ongoing nature of this conflict, he didn’t believe Qianren Sect was unaware of the matter.
