I’m Writing a Diary in a Fantasy World — I Really Am Not a 'Cao Thief'! Chapter 13.1 : Taihuang Hall (Part 1)

Personally chosen by the Holy Lord, a candidate for the Holy Son!

Such an honor could truly be called a step straight into the heavens!

Yet when they thought of Chu Ge's profound fortune, his monstrous natural aptitude, and the many benefits he had already brought to Taihuang before even formally entering the sect, they suddenly felt that all of this was only natural.

Without daring to hesitate, the gathered great powers imdiately cupped their hands in response.

"We obey the Holy Lord's decree!"

The attitudes of the many great powers toward Chu Ge grew even more amicable, their gazes warm and gentle. The group of rookie disciples also revealed expressions of envy and reverence.

One step into the heavens—though all were new disciples, Chu Ge had already left them far behind. His current status was a height they would never reach in their entire lives!

Only Ye Chen was different, nearly grinding his teeth to dust.

'Personally chosen by the Holy Lord, candidate for the Holy Son! All of this… should have belonged to ! Chu Ge! You stole my destined opportunity, you stole everything that should have been mine!'

Countless vicious thoughts surged in Ye Chen's heart, and even his eyes were stained with a trace of crimson.

[Ding! The Child of Destiny's ntal state is damaged. His fortune has leaked. The host has gained 6000 Villain Points.]

A smile appeared on Chu Ge's face. His already handso features now seed to shine even more brilliantly, causing Su Lingyuan—who was speaking with him—to feel her heart tremble, nearly losing herself in that smile.

...

Night fell.

Taihuang Sacred Land, Taihuang Hall.

This was the Holy Lord's usual residence, located at the very center of the Taihuang mountain range. As the Holy Lord's personal disciple, Chu Ge naturally had the qualifications to reside here.

Not only him—Su Lingyuan also had a residence within another section of Taihuang Hall.

After sending away the few attendant maids, Chu Ge lay back on the bed, his mind drifting.

His mood was far from as calm as he had appeared during the day.

'So just like that, I took a single step into the heavens and beca the Holy Lord's personal disciple… and even one of the candidates for Taihuang's Holy Son?'

Chu Ge still felt a sense of unreality.

But the comfortable bed, the magnificent and luxurious residence, and the dense spiritual energy that perated the entire Taihuang Hall all told him clearly—this was real.

Now, the entire Taihuang Sacred Land already knew that a disciple nad Chu Ge had beco the third personally chosen disciple of the Taihuang Holy Lord, Luo Huangjun!

And this news was still spreading at a furious pace, along with everything that had happened at the Spirit-Testing Platform today.

Myriad Laws Sacred Body, Heavenly Dao Derivation, the Radiant Dragon Seal (Huanglong Seal), and the Holy Lord and the Grand Elder clashing in a ferocious battle that left heaven and earth pale in comparison!

It could be said that by tomorrow morning, Chu Ge's na would resound throughout the entire continent!

His na would also enter the key watchlists of all major powers.

So renowned geniuses from powerful factions would likewise regard him as a future competitor!

Not only had Chu Ge's status within Taihuang risen straight into the heavens, he had also stepped in a single stride onto the central stage of the entire cultivation world!

It was just that he had only now formally embarked upon the path of cultivation and still needed ti to grow; for the ti being, he would not yet stand upon that stage.

With such attention and such status, it was only natural that Chu Ge would face many challenges in the near future!

"Overthinking is useless."

Chu Ge murmured softly, casting aside the many chaotic thoughts in his mind.

Perhaps many challenges awaited him in the future, but at present, he bore the Myriad Laws Sacred Body, and his status was also exceedingly high.

Talent, resources, status, backing—he had them all. Even his network of connections had beco extraordinarily profound thanks to the Heavenly Dao's derivation!

Everything the other prodigies possessed, he now lacked none!

What he needed was rely a little ti!

Just a little ti, and he would catch up—perhaps even surpass them!

What was more, he possessed sothing that no one else had—his greatest support of all!

The System!

With so many aids at his disposal, Chu Ge feared no challenge or danger!

'If soldiers co, I'll block them; if water rises, I'll build a dam. With such a perfect opening and the System at my side, what is there for to worry about?'

With this thought, Chu Ge stopped thinking further.

The sudden sense of disorientation and the inexplicable anxiety he felt were nothing more than the result of not yet fully adjusting his old mindset.

If he truly lacked confidence, then worry might be justified—but his confidence was more than sufficient!

Those who should be worried were his future opponents—not Chu Ge.
