Martial Cultivator-Chapter 916.1: This Destitute Monk Also Wants to Try Becoming Nation Teacher - Part 1

Chen Chao asked curiously, “Then what kind of person was the true founder of the martial path?”

The title Martial Dao Ancestor was something that, let alone having seen, was actually hard to even hear about.

The girl in white rolled her eyes. “I haven’t met him either. What the hell would I know?”

Chen Chao gave an oh and did not dwell on it. Although this girl in white was certainly a figure from a thousand years ago, how long a thousand years actually was was hard to say. As for what era that Martial Dao Ancestor belonged to, it was even harder to say.

“But one thing is certain. Whether it was that Martial Dao Ancestor or the ancestors of the Three Schools, they were all outstanding figures rarely seen in a thousand ages.”

The girl in white chose her words carefully, as if afraid that with one careless phrase she might make those great figures sound less impressive.

Chen Chao smiled and said, “Clearly, you just said a piece of nonsense.”

Anyone who opened up a path of cultivation, who was not a once-in-a-generation outstanding figure? Did that really need you to say?

The corners of her mouth twitched and she let out a cold laugh. This pair of uncle and nephew were both irritating to talk to. They really were of the same lineage, with the same blood flowing through them.

Chen Chao asked, “I’ve traveled to many places and seen a certain divine mountain, where there was a certain Divine Daughter trapped inside. She should also be from your time, right?”

"Divine Daughter?"

The girl in white raised an eyebrow and said bluntly, “Since I could survive using some kind of secret method, then there would certainly have been other sect remnants a thousand years ago. There’s definitely more than one such figure, and every single one of them is certainly far stronger than those overseas people.”

Chen Chao asked curiously, “It seems like you all are planning to collectively awaken in this lifetime?”

The girl in white glanced at Chen Chao and sneered. “Keep probing.”

Chen Chao waved his hand and laughed. “If you don’t want to say it, forget it. I thought you had a belly full of things you wanted to say to someone. I was willing to be that listener, and you don’t even appreciate it.”

“There are a lot of things, but you’re not qualified to hear them yet. And I’ve already said them to Chen Che.”

The girl in white looked calm and composed, not caring in the slightest about the kid in front of her.

Chen Chao thought for a moment and asked, “Is there another realm above Fuyun? What is that realm called, and is there anyone in that realm?”

This time, the girl in white could not even be bothered to speak.

Chen Chao let out a sigh.

Women were already hard to deal with to begin with, and this woman in front of him just happened to have quite a high cultivation realm, making her even harder to deal with.

He looked toward the sea surface, sighed, and said, “Looks like there’s a very big secret.”

The girl in white narrowed her eyes and smiled. “There is a very big secret, but if you’re qualified to know it, you definitely won’t be able to avoid it. If you’re not qualified, then even if the sky collapses, you’ll just get smashed to death along with everyone else. There’s no need to think too much about it.”

Chen Chao said, “I don’t want to die as a muddled ghost.”

“Then cultivate properly and hurry up and break through your realm.”

After saying that, the girl in white seemed unwilling to continue. Instead, Chen Chao remembered something. He reached into his robes and took out a sheet of paper. “Could you help me take a look?”

The girl in white reached out, took the page of paper that no longer carried any aura into her hand, glanced at it, then narrowed her eyes and said, “A relic of the Fuyun Sect.”

Chen Chao’s eyes lit up. “What does it say?”

This page had been obtained from the Sublime Bright Sect, and Chen Chao had carried it on him ever since. It had saved his life many times. But during the battle with the Demon Emperor, the aura on this page completely dissipated, and along with it, even the words on it had peeled away.

This made Chen Chao feel deeply frustrated. He had originally wanted to rely on this page to understand those hidden secrets he did not know. Who would have thought that before he could read much of it, it was now impossible to read at all?

“The text has all fallen off. What do you expect me to read?”

The girl in white frowned slightly. “But it should be the notes of some generation’s sect master. It wouldn’t be that final sect master’s, would it?”

Chen Chao frowned. He was hesitating over whether to take out the other sheet of paper in his possession and let the girl in white have a look, when the girl in white had already put away that page, clearly intending to keep it for herself.

Chen Chao felt helpless and gave up on the thought. Instead, he asked, “Can you tell me about the Fuyun Sect?”

This sect was named after that realm. No matter how one looked at it, it should not have been an ordinary sect.

The girl in white said, “The founding ancestor of the Fuyun Sect once participated in the establishment of the realms. On top of that, he was himself one of the strongest figures of that era. After founding the sect, he named it Fuyun. It’s not as mysterious as you’re thinking.”

She seemed to know what Chen Chao was thinking, and one sentence dispelled his doubts. “But the Fuyun Sect was indeed a major sect back then. It didn’t belong to the Three Schools, nor did it follow the martial path. It could be considered a path of its own, and that founding ancestor was also an outstanding figure.”

Chen Chao waited for more, but seeing that the girl in white had fallen silent after saying this much, he could not help asking, “That’s it?”

"It's gone?"“That’s it.”

The girl in white nodded seriously and said with a smiling squint, “A sect that has already collapsed, what’s there to talk about? No matter how much you talk about it, in the end doesn’t it just come down to the words ‘already collapsed’?”

Chen Chao felt that it was not that simple, but since the other party was unwilling to say more, he did not press the issue. After all, asking would be futile, and he understood that much.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Chao said, “Since my uncle is unharmed, there’s nothing more to worry about. Senior, please convey to my uncle that the matters here are all in hand, I’ll handle them properly.”

“Senior?”

The girl in white raised an eyebrow, seeming somewhat dissatisfied with the form of address.

Chen Chao said helplessly, “No matter how you look at it, calling you senior can’t be wrong.”

The girl in white grinned. “Alright, alright. ‘Senior’... really a polite and obedient child.”

Before the words had even finished falling, the girl in white suddenly dissipated, and Chen Chao also lost control and fell into the seawater.

When he finally stood up out of the seawater and looked around, not seeing the girl in white anywhere, Chen Chao could only give a bitter smile. This woman really did turn hostile at the drop of a hat.

Chen Chao let out a sigh and returned to the reef. In fact, being able to encounter that girl in white here had been within his expectations.

Since his uncle intended to stand up for him, the outcome would certainly be conveyed to him. As for who would appear to tell him in the end, that was another matter.

But the place would definitely be Ying Prefecture.

That was also one of the reasons Chen Chao had come to Ying Prefecture.

Having met the girl in white, he felt reassured. For the time being, there was no need to worry about matters overseas. What he truly needed to focus on was still the demon race in the north.

To face the Demon Emperor.
