Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect Chapter 158: Actually, I Am a Good Person
Although the master of nding Heaven Peak had already fallen due to a failed breakthrough, the gossip about his wife and children remained hot in the Primordial Saint Sect for several months.
Not to ntion the True Persons, even the ordinary disciples were secretly discussing the rumors.
Especially when they saw Lü Yang visiting nding Heaven Peak every few days, sotis greeted personally by Madam Ruo Xiang or Chen Shuqian.
Because of this, most of the True Persons in the sect would curse under their breath, "Dog man and woman."
At the Sky-reaching Sea of Clouds, within nding Heaven Peak.
"The appointnt from Sacred Fire Cliff has already been issued." Lü Yang placed a decree on the table and sighed, "I was not appointed as the master of nding Heaven Peak."
The status of the Four Inner Peaks in the sect was extrely high.
Even with Madam Ruo Xiang personally vouching for him, the sect could not possibly appoint a True Person who had never cultivated the nding Heaven True Scripture as the peak master.
In the end, Madam Ruo Xiang beca the peak master, while Lü Yang was given the position of guest elder.
In other words, Madam Ruo Xiang's previous promise had not been fulfilled.
At this thought, Lü Yang's anger imdiately flared up, until a sensation like an electric current surged through his body, extinguishing his fury.
"Hu."
He lowered his eyelids, and his gaze happened to et a pair of beautiful eyes like autumn water.
Even at this point, her dignified deanor remained unchanged, and the slightly ssy cloud-like hair only highlighted her charm even more.
"I'm sorry."
Madam Ruo Xiang apologized obediently.
A day later.
Lü Yang tidied his robes and ended his Dao discussion with Madam Ruo Xiang.
Although he was not fond of won, the cultivation techniques of nding Heaven Peak could directly transmit knowledge and insights through dual cultivation.
For the sake of efficiency, he had no choice.
Right after, he saw Madam Ruo Xiang stretching her flawless, jade-like figure with satisfaction, while taking out a black-and-white decree and handing it to Lü Yang.
"This is called the nding Heaven Decree, considered the token of the peak masters through the generations." Madam Ruo Xiang leaned on Lü Yang and said softly, "With this decree and my guarantee, you are fully qualified to act as the peak master. This way, I am not considered to have gone back on my word, and you have just punished as well."
Lü Yang looked at Madam Ruo Xiang with a half-smile.
No matter how much she said, it was only acting on behalf, not truly controlling nding Heaven Peak.
If Madam Ruo Xiang ever changed her mind, she could take back the decree at any ti.
This woman wanted to control him, afraid that he might really usurp her position?
But this was normal.
Where in the sect could true feelings be found?
Without holding so leverage over others, gaining trust was simply impossible.
Therefore, Lü Yang did not mind, letting himself fall into Madam Ruo Xiang's grasp.
As long as the benefits were his, it was enough.
Just then, a graceful figure suddenly appeared outside the door.
Though not as dignified and noble as Madam Ruo Xiang, she carried the unique vitality of youth.
"Senior Yuan Tu.!"
Chen Shuqian entered with a smile on her face.
But the mont she saw Madam Ruo Xiang beside Lü Yang, her smile quickly faded.
".It’s you."
Although Lü Yang was present, the mother and daughter finally spoke openly.
Chen Shuqian had also realized that Madam Ruo Xiang did not intend to take her life.
That said, Madam Ruo Xiang had indeed treated her as a rival.
So the two still looked at each other with mutual disdain.
At this mont, looking at Madam Ruo Xiang, Chen Shuqian grew even more resentful.
Wasn’t it just by relying on her looks that she latched onto Senior Yuan Tu?
We still have a long road ahead!
You are the peak master now, but who knows what the future holds!
A few days later, Lü Yang left nding Heaven Peak.
As for most of the things in nding Heaven Peak, he was actually not interested.
After all, he lacked neither spiritual treasures, nor pills, nor cultivation thods and divine abilities.
What truly caught his attention was only one thing.
"The successive peak masters of the Four Inner Peaks could carry the decree to Sacred Fire Cliff and read a Dao book written by a True Lord concerning seeking the Golden Core."
This was the true benefit!
Which Foundation Establishnt True Person had not thought of seeking the Golden Core?
Who had not dreamt of ascending to that supre position, becoming an unparalleled mighty figure who governed heaven and earth?
One must know, only in a place like the Primordial Saint Sect did thods for seeking the Golden Core exist.
If it were in the outside world, those sects and immortal clans that stopped at the Foundation Establishnt Realm would truly have no path forward.
Seeking the Golden Core would be like a blind man groping an elephant, forcing generation after generation of cultivators to risk their lives in pursuit.
With these thoughts, Lü Yang flew straight toward Sacred Fire Cliff.
Along the way, he keenly noticed the gazes of many True Persons—so curious, so admiring, and so filled with fear—showing how high his popularity was now.
To this, Lü Yang could only sigh helplessly.
'The world has misunderstood too deeply!'
Clearly, it was the peak master of nding Heaven Peak who had acted against the people’s will, losing their hearts.
That was why Madam Ruo Xiang, Chen Shuqian, and Chen Xin'an chose to side with .
I rely accepted their plea for help and offered a little assistance.
Strictly speaking, I helped them escape from the clutches of the peak master.
As the saying goes, saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda; this should actually count as a good deed!
Thinking of this, even Lü Yang himself was a little moved.
Although on the surface, I appear to be a lawless, usurping, peerless demon.
I believe I am actually a good person!
At the Sky-reaching Sea of Clouds, Sacred Fire Cliff.
True Person Chong Guang sat cross-legged on a ditation cushion, looking at Lü Yang, who sat upright with a dignified and righteous appearance, with a strange expression in his eyes.
".You handled this matter well."
True Person Chong Guang spoke slowly, "With Madam Ruo Xiang personally vouching for you, the matter of Chen Taihe can be considered the internal affair of nding Heaven Peak."
Lü Yang respectfully cupped his hands, "Thank you for your magnanimity, Martial Uncle."
"No need to be modest, your abilities are outstanding."
At this point, True Person Chong Guang looked at Lü Yang and, after a mont of thought, spoke in a low voice, "But you must rember, strength is the foundation of our sect."
"Do not neglect your cultivation by focusing too much on sches."
"Disciple understands. This visit is precisely for that purpose."
Lü Yang nodded in agreent, then took out the decree given by Madam Ruo Xiang and handed it to True Person Chong Guang.
"Ruo Xiang knows her cultivation is lacking, so she specially entrusted with this decree, allowing to temporarily exercise the authority of the peak master. I wish to use this to read the Dao book of the True Lord, and I must trouble Martial Uncle."
"A trivial matter."
True Person Chong Guang smiled and nodded.
Although strictly speaking, Lü Yang was not the true peak master.
The so-called temporary authority was not entirely compliant.
However, who in the entire sect did not know about Lü Yang’s relationship with Madam Ruo Xiang?
The two were so close they practically wore the sa pair of pants.
So True Person Chong Guang did not bother to pursue this minor issue.
He imdiately took the nding Heaven Decree from Lü Yang’s hand, then pointed with his finger, manifesting a beam of golden light.
Lü Yang stretched out his hand, and the golden light instantly condensed into a book in his palm.
Four large characters like dragon seals and phoenix scripts appeared on the cover:
『Observations on the Golden Core』.
