Eternal Heart Chapter 1246: Chen Yu’s Choice

At the highest point of Martial God Mountain, in a grand hall, Chen Yu t his master.

The Sky Martial Sect Master lightly scrutinized Chen Yu, revealing a look of gratified satisfaction.

Initially reluctant to accept Chen Yu as a disciple, he hadn’t expected that now, Chen Yu would beco his most outstanding disciple.

Thinking back, he had to thank the Supre Elder for suddenly speaking up back then, which led him to accept Chen Yu.

"You are still too hasty; you can accumulate for a while longer."

The Sky Martial Sect Master felt so regret.

Chen Yu was still young; he could completely remain in the Condensed Star Realm for another forty to fifty years, striving to break through to the eight-star king, and then reach the Xuanming Realm.

Moreover, Chen Yu had broken through to the Xuanming Realm outside; if disturbed, there was a high possibility of failure.

The Sky Martial Sect Master did not perceive Chen Yu’s true cultivation.

Because he never doubted the authenticity of Chen Yu’s cultivation, he only slightly sensed it and then shifted his focus.

"..."

Chen Yu did not know what to say.

He had reached the nine-star king before breaking through to the Xuanming Realm.

Chen Yu decided to keep the matter of the nine-star king as hidden as possible.

Even from his master, he deed it best not to reveal it.

After all, having broken through to the nine stars in such a short ti definitely required a reason and explanation, which involved revealing everything related to the Blood Race.

Ultimately, it could possibly allow the Sky Martial Sect Master to see through his true cultivation.

Chen Yu thought it best not to expose too many shocking truths at once.

"However, this is a path you chose yourself; as your master, I believe you have made a thoughtful decision."

The Sky Martial Sect Master continued.

Perhaps back then, Chen Yu, while in the Dead Spirit Desert, faced a crisis where only breaking through could avert disaster.

The Sky Martial Sect Master had not reached the seven-star king either, so perhaps Chen Yu felt his cultivation had reached its limit with no further progress, leading him to choose to break through.

"When I went to the Dead Spirit Desert, I did indeed encounter opportunities, among other reasons. I believe I made the right choice."

Seeing his master’s consideration, Chen Yu spoke up.

"This ti I wanted to ask about your future plans."

"In the Heavenly Martial Sect, once your cultivation breaks through to the Xuanming Realm, there are three paths."

The Sky Martial Sect Master returned to the main topic.

In the Heavenly Martial Sect, once cultivation breaks through to the Xuanming Realm, it is no longer appropriate to remain a disciple.

"The first path is to leave the Heavenly Martial Sect."

Chen Yu temporarily didn’t plan to do this.

When he first arrived in the main world, his identity from a lower interface led to exclusion.

Entering the Heavenly Martial Sect was a major turning point, allowing Chen Yu to soar and beco a renowned genius of the Human Race.

If he hadn’t entered the Heavenly Martial Sect at that ti, it might have been hard to achieve his current success.

"The second path is to beco the ’young sect master’ of the Heavenly Martial Sect."

Among the talented disciples of the Heavenly Martial Sect, only a few qualify to beco the ’young sect master’.

For the young sect master, the sect invests all resources in nurturing them, and the future Sect Master is born from the young sect masters.

"After Guan Hongri broke through to the Xuanming Realm, he chose to beco the young sect master, being grood as the future heir of the sect."

The Sky Martial Sect Master said an additional sentence.

He hoped Chen Yu would take this path and in the future, take over the position of Sky Martial Sect Master from him.

"The third path is to beco a high-ranking elder of the Heavenly Martial Sect."

After narrating the three paths, the Sky Martial Sect Master finished speaking.

"I choose the third path."

After a brief thought, Chen Yu made his decision.

"Are you sure?"

The Sky Martial Sect Master appeared slightly surprised, not expecting Chen Yu to make a decision so quickly, and the choice was beyond his expectation.

The young sect master holds a very high status in the sect, enjoying a wealth of resources for cultivation; it is undoubtedly the best path.

Currently, the Heavenly Martial Sect has four young sect masters, but in terms of talent and potential, none surpass Chen Yu.

As long as Chen Yu becos a young sect master, there’s more than a seventy percent chance he’ll beco the Sect Master in the future, leading one of the three great divine sects of the Human Race.

But Chen Yu chose to beco a sect elder instead.

"I am sure."

Once again, Chen Yu affird his thought.

If he had focused solely on cultivation, becoming a young sect master would be a good choice.

However, he carried too many secrets, and in the future, he might still need to pursue other Divine Demon Parts’ clues, as well as his biological father’s whereabouts.

Moreover, Chen Yu was already the Blood Clan Master. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he still abandoned the second path.

"Alright, since you’re not interested in this, your master will not impede you. But at the ti, don’t obstruct others from making choices."

The Sky Martial Sect Master only felt slightly regretful.

Regarding the next Sect Master’s heir, he had two other disciples eligible to compete: Qin Wentian and Ye Luofeng.

Qin Wentian now holds the fifth place on the Heavenly Martial List, with a cultivation of five and a half stars, and has the potential to reach the six-star king, or even higher levels.

And Ye Luofeng, as the top disciple of this year’s new disciples, currently holds a cultivation of four and a half stars.

Her cultivation advanced so quickly, partly due to the Sky Martial Sect Master’s influence.

When Chen Yu had gone missing in the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest, the Sky Martial Sect Master feared the worst for him, and when having Hong Xiuyuan heal Ye Luofeng, he also bestowed her a boon, as compensation for Chen Yu.

Within Ye Luofeng’s body resides the Sky Martial Sect Master’s divine power, dramatically enhancing her physical aptitude through the cleansing of the divine power. Simultaneously, the divine power also accelerates her absorption of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

Chen Yu understood his master’s intention.

If Ye Luofeng were to face this step in the future, he would certainly not interfere.

Thinking of Ye Luofeng being taken as a disciple by the Sky Martial Sect Master, Chen Yu couldn’t help but recall his own experience of apprenticeship.

"Master, can you tell now, the real reason you changed your mind and took as a disciple back then?"

Chen Yu couldn’t help but ask.

Back then, he had also inquired, but the Sky Martial Sect Master had casually brushed it off, and Chen Yu dared not continue questioning.

But now, his status and position were different, and he raised the question again.

The Sky Martial Sect Master was slightly taken aback, and after pondering for a mont, he replied sowhat awkwardly, "In fact, taking you as a disciple was the idea of the Supre Elder."

He no longer concealed the truth.

The Sky Martial Sect Master had also personally asked the Supre Elder, but he didn’t get an answer.

"I know you have doubts; as your master, I will now take you to see the Supre Elder. You can ask him any questions."

The Sky Martial Sect Master planned to learn the truth through Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded and followed the Sky Martial Sect Master to the forbidden area in the rear valley of the Heavenly Martial Sect.

"Supre Elder, Wanli has sothing to ask."

Sikong Wanli stopped outside the valley.

A few breaths later, an old sigh echoed from within the valley: "Co in."

At the sa ti, a powerful aura that made all things tremble pervaded the area, as if everything in the void had solidified.

Following his master, Chen Yu, unaffected, entered the valley and walked to a simple courtyard.

"How has the Supre Elder been lately?"

The Sky Martial Sect Master inquired as a greeting.

"If you’re just here to catch up, you may leave now."

The voice from within the courtyard replied bluntly.

The Sky Martial Sect Master smiled wryly and got straight to the point: "Supre Elder, my disciple has so doubts that only you can resolve for him."

The door to the courtyard opened, and an elder dressed in plain clothes, with white hair, appeared.

He stood there calmly, like an ordinary elder, but at that mont, the Star Origin Holy Power within Chen Yu solidified, and he felt an invisible oppression, along with feelings of reverence and respect.

"Greetings, Supre Elder."

Chen Yu offered a respectful salute.

The elder in plain clothes was the Supre Elder of the sect, whose cultivation and strength surpassed even his master Sikong Wanli.

"I know why you have doubts. The reason I helped you back then was because your father was an old acquaintance of mine."

The Supre Elder did not hide the truth and was forthright, revealing it even before Chen Yu had asked.

The Sky Martial Sect Master was slightly shocked internally; the Supre Elder actually knew Chen Yu’s father.

"May I ask, Supre Elder, why did my father hide his identity, and where is he now?"

Chen Yu continued his inquiry. Now that he had broken through to the Xuanming Realm, his strength had greatly improved compared to before, and he felt he should be able to learn so truths.

"He has his reasons, but as for his current whereabouts, I do not know."

The Supre Elder’s gaze was deep as he spoke slowly.

Seeing the disappointnt on Chen Yu’s face, he continued, "However, I can confirm that ng Qingyun is currently not among the Human Race."

"Thank you, Supre Elder, for telling ."

Chen Yu did not receive the answer he wanted.

But one day, he would uncover all the mysteries, understand the truth behind ng Qingyun’s collusion with alien races, his hidden identity, and why he couldn’t et with Chen Yu...

Chen Yu even felt that regarding his biological mother, there were still so truths he did not know.

Suddenly, golden divine radiance blossod in front of the Supre Elder. At the mont when this forbidden divine power appeared, the surrounding void seed to solidify and all things lost their color.

"As long as ng Qingyun appears near you, it can guide you."

The Supre Elder waved his sleeve, and the golden divine radiance intertwined into an ancient rune, floating in front of Chen Yu, imprinting on the back of his hand.

The Supre Elder saw that Chen Yu would seek ng Qingyun, so he offered appropriate assistance.

After leaving the place, Chen Yu went to handle the relevant procedures to leave his disciple status and beco part of the Heavenly Martial Sect’s upper echelon.

"Nephew Chen, why not choose to beco the Junior Sect Leader?"

The high-ranking mber handling Chen Yu’s procedures sighed repeatedly.

During the previous celebration banquet for the Emperor, many upper echelon mbers had managed relationships with Chen Yu, believing he could beco the next Sect Master, with a good chance of becoming a god.

On that day, when the news spread, the entire Heavenly Martial Sect was shocked, thinking Chen Yu had made the wrong choice.

Guan Hongri, however, upon hearing the news, cleared away his previous gloom.

"Chen Yu chose to beco a Sect Elder?"

Guan Hongri was taken aback, and felt elated.

Previously, he was worried that Chen Yu would also beco a Junior Sect Leader and compete with him for the future position of Sect Master.

"Hahaha, a Sect Elder; the status isn’t even close to mine as a Junior Sect Leader."

Guan Hongri laughed heartily, regaining his confidence and imagining a day when he would wash away his disgrace: "When I beco the Sect Master in the future, I will surely trample you beneath my feet!"

Returning to his cave dwelling, Chen Yu paid no heed to the outside comnts.

He had already decided to search for ng Qingyun to discover the entire truth.

However, since ng Qingyun was not among the Human Race, and the main world was vast with countless races, Chen Yu had no direction on where to begin his search.

"Why did Father warn to be cautious of the Silver Soul Clan?"

Chen Yu pondered over the warning from the Qingyun Emperor’s split soul.

Perhaps he could find so leads from the Silver Soul Clan.

Through Ye Luofeng, Chen Yu learned that the reason the Silver Soul Clan successfully invaded Human Race territory was that they had secretly constructed a long-distance Transmission Array beneath the Dead Spirit Desert.
