Generally, the story revolved around the Devil Lord——Chu Wuyong; betrayed by his trusted aide which he regarded as his own younger brother, Chu Wuyong was killed and reborn into a boy’s body . After that, the story continued with him reaching the summit and take his revenge .
The identity of the body that Li Luo was now occupying was precisely one of the elders of the Clear Sky Sect; the sect that cultivated in the immortal path, and the body’s name was Gu Qingchen .
At the moment, Gu Qingchen’s rank was of someone who recently entered the Nascent Soul stage for approximately five to six years; and two years ago, he was promoted as a sect elder by the Sect Master .
Although he became an elder for two years, the other elders did not dare to neglect him .
With regards to his aptitude, Gu Qingchen was one of the geniuses in Clear Sky Sect for the past thousand years . After only more than two hundred years, he entered the Nascent Soul stage and squeezed into the list of expert rank in Tianyun Continent .
When he entered the Nascent Soul stage, his life span increased by another thousand years, and who knows at what stage he could climb in this span of thousand years? As a result, if Gu Qingchen wanted something in the Clear Sky Sect, the majority of practitioners in the sect flocked to give it to him . After all, he was powerful and also an elder of Clear Sky Sect, and even more, to consolidate the position of Clear Sky Sect in the eyes of other cultivator .
Opposite to Gu Qingchen where the entire sect favored him and couldn’t wait to designate all high-grade resources to him; the situation of the male protagonist was undoubtedly much worse .
After Chu Wuyong secretly plotted behind his back by his best friend, his soul almost scattered . His spirit floated around between heaven and earth for more than ten years, when he woke up, he found himself inside the body of a twelve year old boy who just died .
The name of this body was also Chu Wuyong but was completely different from the Devil Lord Chu Wuyong’s situation as his spirit completely vanished .
This Chu Wuyong was only a mere labor disciple with a rather low status in Clear Sky Sect . He was a coward, often bullied by others and would not refute . The three disciples who lived in the same room as he saw his weak character right away, so whenever something unhappy happened, they would beat him . If he had a resource for cultivation, he would be robbed by the three of them, not leaving a bit of chance to cultivate .
The end of this body’s life was also because he received a high-grade cultivation material . When the three knew about it, they tried to take it from him, he resisted and was pushed into the water by the three . With the three’s cooperation, he suffocated and drowned .
In such a large sect, the death of a mere labor disciple was nothing . Even if it was several people, it would not attract the attention of others .
It was precisely at this time that Chu Wuyong transmigrated in this unfortunate child’s body .
After Chu Wuyong transmigrated, he immediately explored the child’s memory . He found that he was in Clear Sky Sect, which ranked third in the Tianyun continent, because of that, he dared not openly practiced his Devil path cultivation method .
After cultivating for a while, he discovered a peculiarity in his current body .
The cultivator can only choose one path to cultivate, Immortal or Devil path; if both were to be cultivated at the same time, the body would explode and die .
But he found out that the spiritual energy inside his current body resembled like yin and yang; they did not blend and influence the other rather they interacted harmoniously in the body, this means that he can cultivate both Immortal path and the Devil path .
After this discovery, Chu Wuyong did not hurry to leave Clear Sky Sect; he stayed in ease . He was resolute to become stronger before he collects the debts of his previous life . He would collect each and every one of them without exception .
Because he occupied this body, Chu Wuyong silently handled the three people who caused the original owner’s death . This act was regarded as his payment to the original owner for giving up his body, making way for his resurrection .
Although the three did not die, their lifespan was gradually consumed and by the time when it’s exhausted, that is when they will die .

Not long after Li Luo roughly skimmed at the synopsis in his mind, the small emerald jade boat with a shape of a leaf stopped in front of the main hall’s entrance .
The main hall was constructed at the peak of a large mountain, and this moment the sun had risen at its highest altitude in the day . The mist above the peak blocked most of the blazing sunlight, allowing a few strands to pass through .
Li Luo landed at the ground first, followed by the disciple in blue garments . He stood behind Li Luo, respectfully .
The public square in front of the main hall was filled by a crowd of people wearing black clothes . When they noticed a slender figure with a cold expression on his face came down from a small emerald boat, almost all of them looked at the individual with bright rays of light in their eyes .
In the entire Clear Sky Sect, no one didn’t know who Gu Qingchen was . He was like a star that attracted everyone’s attention, making them look up to him .
If Gu Qingchen would pick them and become his succeeding disciple, they will have a bright future ahead; not to mention the treasure that the sect had given to the genius, especially the cultivation method that they will get, it will surely be the best .
In an instant, the slender and tall figure became the focus of attention among the crowd .
Li Luo obviously felt the scorching gaze of everyone on his back, which almost burnt a layer of his skin .
Li Luo: “......” In such an impatient manner, he nearly was unable to stand it .
Li Luo tried to ignore the gazes projected at his body, and as before he maintained the cold expression on his face as he looked at the entrance of the main hall .
Shortly after Li Luo’s arrival, the door of the main hall, whose height was more than two persons, opened . After that, more than twenty people came out from the inside .
The person who led that group of people was a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe . When the man saw Li Luo, he smiled at him, “Elder Gu, you are here . ”
This seemingly gentle and courteous middle-aged man was the Sect Master of Clear Sky Sect——Ye Tianqi .
Li Luo nodded his head to Ye Tianqi, not saying a thing and stood to one side .
Ye Tianqi was already accustomed to Li Luo’s character and did not say anything . After all, the original Gu Qingchen was a cold man, he was not close with anyone and had his heart set on cultivation; however, it may be because he had indifferent nature that Gu Qingchen was not easily affected by foreign matters and stabilized his inner spirit .
After Ye Tiannqi exchanged greetings with Li Luo, he looked at the group of people in black clothes standing below . His gentle expression a moment ago was replaced with a stern look . His stern eyes were like a knife that could cut on everyone’s body; it made all the youth that stood below straighten their backs .
“Your aptitude has been tested before . Now, disciples with Single Spirit Vein or variation Spirit Vein, come fort and stand on my left . ”
After Ye Tianqi”s voice fell, a few dozen of individuals immediately came out from the crowd and stood at the area where Ye Tianqi had instructed .
Ye Tianqi waited until those young disciples settled down . He then turned his head and looked at the elders that stood behind his back and the owners of the five prominent peaks .
“How would you want to choose the disciples you fancy?”
“Let’s do the same as in the previous years . ” A gray-haired old man stated as he stroked his long beard; his pair of eyes narrowed forming a pair of slit, he casually glanced at the crowd .
“I agree with what Elder Yang said, anyway, after all these years of choosing a disciple in this manner; I have no opinion . ” A woman in a red dress with alluring features softly stated, she covered her lips and chuckled; the outer corner of her eyes also slightly picked .
The rest of the people nodded and said that they had not thought of another option .
Ye Tianqi saw their reactions, he nodded and glanced at the group of young disciples separated from the crowd .
“Since all the Elders and Mountain Lords have no opinions, then we will follow the same rules as before . ”
The so-called according to the same rules as before, that is, for the balance of each peak, the group will be divided evenly to five peaks according to the height of their aptitude .
Of course, before that, the elders had chosen their preferred disciple in advance .
However, if there were more than one elder who selected the same person, this required the elders to rely on their skills .
But they would also stop the competition at a certain point to avoid getting injured .
Li Luo had no interest in taking in disciples, plus in the original text, Gu Qingchen didn’t accept any disciples in this selection . Although two years later, Gu Qingchen chose the male protagonist as his disciple .
Li Luo’s gaze swept through the crowd with a dull look while asking information from Xiao Qi from time to time . Then, he noticed a small figure that stood behind the group; he struggled to sweep the ground because the broom was taller than him .
Xiao Qi prompted him in his mind: “Great Host, that is the protagonist . ”
When Li Luo heard what Xiao Qi had said, he immediately fixed his gaze to that thin figure that looked as if only had a few lumps of meat in his body .
This person, could he be the lover he was looking for?
Li Luo stared at the thin and small back; he felt his breathing slightly strained . In the last world, he already suspected that the male protagonist in every world was the same person, but who could completely guarantee that this person is the one he was looking for?
It was not until he heard the sound of a battle that Li Luo broke off from his trance; he swiftly looked at the sky in front of him .
He saw two elders, wearing black and blue robes respectively, had started fighting in the sky far from everyone . Finally, the blue-clothed elder on the left was defeated .
The elder who wore a black robe descended from the sky with a smile on his face, he reached out his hand and patted a young man in a white garment who stood with the remaining more than thirty youths, “Hahaha, child, come with me . ”
Ye Tianqi looked at the other elders who had already chosen a disciple . He pondered for a while and turned his head to look and question Li Luo: “Elder Gu, which disciple would you like to take?”
When Li Luo heard Ye Tianqi’s words, he couldn’t help but turn his gaze at the small figure in the distance .
Although in the original text, the original owner of the body selected Chu Wuyong two years later, when he revealed his talent and stood out from the crowd of labor disciples .
However, Li Luo did not want to wait for another two years . If he pondered for two years whether the protagonist of this book was lover he was looking for, then he definitely won’t be able to endure it . It was better to be sure as soon as possible than to torture his heart as he figures out whether he was wrong or right .
Bearing that in mind, Li Luo’s beautiful phoenix eyes immediately looked straight to the back of the crowd; at the small figure who was silently sweeping the ground . He slightly opened his light-colored lips and said: “En, I want that little boy . ” After he finished speaking, Li Luo stretched out his white jade-like finger and pointed at Chu Wuyong’s direction .
Others couldn’t help but look towards the direction that Li Luo pointed out . When they saw the person he was referring to, they couldn’t help but take a mouthful of cold air . Their eyes showed an unbelievable expression .
How was it possible that the most talented genius in Clear Sky Sect fancied this kind of person? To accept an unremarkable labor disciple to be his succeeding disciple, it was unthinkable .
Although they have long heard of this genius’ character for being eccentric, his vision was rather strange, right? Why didn’t he choose the promising seedlings in front of him? Instead, he fancied that kind of person, the type that even if he worked hard to cultivate, he wouldn’t be able to make much progress .
Ye Tianqi looked at Li Luo with an astonished expression, “Elder Gu, are you sure it’s that child over there? He is just an ordinary labor disciple . His talent for cultivation may not be very high . ”
“Yes, I want him . ” The expression on Li Luo’s face was still cold, but the meaning in his tone was clear, he was not joking .
“Alright . ” Ye Tianqi nodded, anyway, even if Gu Qingchen accepted that boy as his disciple, it would not affect his cultivation . He didn’t worry about the other things .
Although Chu Wuyong had his back facing everyone, he paid attention to the movements around him . So when other people were casting their gazes on him, he noticed that something was wrong, but he still lowered his head and continued sweeping the ground . Only those pair of eyes that looked like stars in the night sky quickly flashed a glimmer of a hardly detected light .
