I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors? Chapter 672 672: Taking Office at the Sacred Court
Previously on I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors?...
"God King is wise."
With utmost respect, all those gathered in the grand hall declared this.
The Suppression God King spoke calmly: "Excellent. Proceed to proclaim this decision and spread the word to the remaining Sacred Grounds."
"Yes."
In unison, they acknowledged and left the hall one by one.
Excitement filled the Heavenly Dao Institute Saint, treating Bing Yan as though she were his own nurtured disciple.
Noticing his smug demeanor, the Cao Family Saint remarked in a peculiar voice: "Old Bai, remember this. Dean Bing once led the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, not as the head of your Heavenly Dao Institute."
"What difference does that make? She still hails from my Heavenly Dao Institute, right?"
The Heavenly Dao Institute Saint persisted obstinately.
Observing the scene, the others merely grinned and held their tongues, departing successively. The Heavenly Dao Institute Saint inwardly mused: All of you are simply envious of me.
Six months passed swiftly, and Bing Yan rose to become the Dean of the Wendao Academy. Suddenly, visitors from various factions arrived to offer congratulations. Though merely a fresh Saint, Bing Yan's marriage to a God King ensured no one dared slight her.
Following Bing Yan's ascension to Dean of the Wendao Academy, Chu Feng's household relocated from Miaomiao Mountain to the Dean's Courtyard.
On their initial day there, Chu Feng strolled through the grounds. Having surveyed the area, he whispered to himself: "I never imagined a time would come when I reside in the Dean's Courtyard."
Chu Yuzhi and Chu Yingjin queried simultaneously: "Father, if you desired this courtyard so much, why didn't you claim the role of Dean for the Wendao Academy in the past?"
Chu Feng gave a casual shrug: "Back then, your father sought greater power, so I chose not to pursue it."
"I understand."
Chu Yuzhi whispered thoughtfully and added: "So, does that mean I'm now the Holy Maiden of the Wendao Academy moving forward?"
"Not quite; you're the Divine Maiden of the Wendao Academy. Yet until you attain Sainthood, no more reckless wandering for you. Should you aim to grow stronger, I can dispatch you to the Hongyuan Continent for training."
With a serious expression, Chu Feng stated this. The young girl had reached Great Sage level now. Allowing her the same unchecked freedom as before might invite unforeseen chaos.
"Really?"
Chu Yuzhi gazed at her father with hopeful eyes and inquired. She had grown weary of adventures in the Xuan Continent. Her father forbade trips to the Heaven Continent or elsewhere, but exploring the Hongyuan Continent seemed appealing.
"Of course it's true."
Chu Feng replied softly. Better to have her train in the Hongyuan Continent than stir up issues among the Wendao Academy's students. Besides, humanity hadn't yet claimed dominance there.
"I want to go."
Without hesitation, Chu Yuzhi declared.
Overhearing, Chu Yingjin quickly chimed in: "Father, I'd like to join as well."
Chu Feng responded: "Very well. Tomorrow, once I've consulted with your mothers, I'll transport you both to the Hongyuan Continent. But heed this warning: avoid any acts that defy the heavens or defy justice. Should you stray, I'll handle the matter myself."
"Your daughter obeys."
The two young girls affirmed together.
Chu Feng wasted no time. After conversing with his cherished daughters and stunning wives, he arranged their journey to the Hongyuan Continent.
Upon landing in the Hongyuan Continent, the pair was captivated by the abundant spiritual energy. They scanned their surroundings, their attention soon locking onto Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian.
"First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother."
"Our two Junior Sisters, you've arrived at last."
A rare smile graced Xiao Chen's face as he beheld his junior sisters.
Ji Jiuwu and the rest advanced to offer greetings: "Salutations to the two Senior Sisters."
They had already been informed by their Master that his treasured daughters would soon join the Wendao Sect for cultivation. The prospect of these senior sisters thrilled them.
Turning toward the voices, Chu Yuzhi spotted the cluster of junior brothers and beamed: "Junior Brothers, stand. I look forward to your guidance ahead."
"We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare."
After the courteous exchanges, Chu Yuzhi and Chu Yingjin fully integrated into the Wendao Sect and commenced their cultivation.
Years passed in a flash. Chu Feng's sixty-year respite had elapsed. This day marked his return to the Sacred Court. Bidding goodbye to his lovely wives, he activated the teleportation array bound for the Sacred Court. Joining him were Chen Qianqian, Fang Mu, and Shi Xuan.
By now, every one of his disciples had advanced to the Half-Saint stage. With little left to teach, he could savor a peaceful existence.
Among them, only Bai Qian had ventured to the Hongyuan Continent for further growth after reaching Great Sage. Qin Qin, Wang Baole, Chu Caiyi, and the others stayed at the Wendao Academy, leading their designated institutes.
Apart from the leaders of the Heavenly Dao Institute and the Pill Dao Institute, every other institute head position belonged to Chu Feng's pupils. The Wendao Academy had essentially become his personal domain.
The Sacred Court raised no complaints about this. After all, Chu Feng's disciples shone brightest among the younger cultivators.
In these passing decades, Bing Yan and Princess Miaoyu each crafted a Dao Fruit Pill, surpassing one hundred Dao Traces and granting Chu Feng two additional Godheads.
Chu Feng now stood as a God King with eight Godheads, placing him among the elite powerhouses even in the Sacred Court. Within the Wendao Academy's God Kings, his prowess secured a spot in the top ten.
Traversing the teleportation array, the group swiftly reached the Sacred Court. As Chu Feng emerged, familiar figures greeted his eyes.
"God King Qiankun, your presence has been long anticipated."
The Pill Saints and Great Sage Alchemists of the Sacred Court expressed their thrill.
In truth, decades meant little to beings like Saints and Great Sages—a mere instant. Yet the promise of Chu Feng's alchemy guidance had them yearning endlessly for his return.
With his arrival today, the burden weighing on their minds lifted at last.
Noting their eager looks, Chu Feng grinned and saluted: "I've made you wait too long. Allow me to toast myself as penalty today."
"Hahaha..."
"Absolutely essential!"
The Saints knew well of Chu Feng's legendary winemaking prowess. Recently, each had sampled a sip of the fresh Supreme Saint Wine, its exquisite flavor leaving them enchanted and craving more. Tonight promised the full indulgence.
Sensing the lively mood, Chu Feng promptly presented his disciples to the assembly.
"Qianqian, Xiaomu, Xuan'er, step forward and honor the Wendao Academy's esteemed seniors."
"Yes."
The trio complied, advancing to share their names and bow to the group.
Every member of the Pill Court brimmed with riches. Spotting the newcomers, they showered gifts generously. Had the three been less worldly, the bounty might have stunned them.
That evening, the feast unfolded in Chu Feng's newly assigned courtyard. Midway through the drinks, Mysterious Wood Pill Saint inquired: "Fellow Daoist Qiankun, when will you commence pill refinement?"
Chu Feng chuckled: "That'll require another year or two. I possess just one set of ingredients for Dao Fruit Pills. Plus, I have two dedicated alchemy students. I'll hold off until they reach here, then ignite the furnace to impart the refining arts."
