C303 Returning to the Seven Star Gate
C303 Returning to the Seven Star Gate
The Red-crested Eagle immediately called out twice, then spread its wings and flew away. Wu Di calmed his emotions and walked straight to the foot of the mountain.
The first thing he did when he returned to the Seven Star Sect was not to see the Sect Master, but to go to Zhang Lin's grave. When Wu Di entered the Spirit Medicine Garden in a black robe, the servants did not recognize Wu Di at all, nor did they dare to look at him. When Wu Di passed by, they all avoided him and lowered their heads.
Wu Di didn't care about this kind of respectful behavior. He had been training outside for nearly three years and many things had happened. Now, Wu Di had become indifferent and indifferent. His deep eyes carried the vicissitudes of life. He was no longer the silly boy who was full of hot blood and impulse.
Manager Chen, who was checking the account book, was suddenly interrupted by a servant who had barged into the house. He said discontentedly, "Before coming in, you have to report first. Is this your first day here?"
"Manager, outside... there is a first-generation disciple coming from outside. He is... walking around in Spirit Medicine Garden."
"A disciple of the first generation? He is wearing a black robe?" Manager Chen was shocked.
"Yes, he is wearing black disciple clothes. He is outside right now."
Manager Chen immediately dropped the brush in his hand and walked outside. When he saw that there was really a person in black disciple clothes not far away, his face was filled with fear and trepidation. Manager Chen quickly walked towards that direction. During this period of time, he almost fell down several times. He looked very funny.
"May I know which senior has come to Spirit Medicine Garden all of a sudden? May I know if there is anything I can help you with?" Manager Chen was very careful when he spoke. He even cupped his hands and bowed 90 degrees to Wu Di.
Wu Di put his hand behind his back. When he heard Manager Chen's voice, he turned his head to look at him and said, "Manager Chen, long time no see."
Manager Chen felt that this voice was very familiar. He couldn't help but secretly look up. When he realized that the person standing in front of him was Wu Di, he was shocked. He immediately took a step back and said, "It's you."
"That's right, it's me. Don't be so nervous. I'm just here to see Zhang Lin's grave. I won't do anything else." Wu Di had to say something when he saw his old friend. Besides, Manager Chen had treated him well, so he wouldn't make things difficult for him.
Manager Chen didn't know what to say, but Wu Di had already walked far away. With his current cultivation base, the Visionary Immortal Track was naturally enhanced by him. In the blink of an eye, he had already walked a few feet away. His speed was so fast that it left one speechless.
"Manager, who is this?" Someone who had good news came forward and asked.
Manager Chen turned around and glared at him. "Don't meddle in other people's business. Go do something for me. If you don't do your things well, I'll punish you today."
Those people were afraid that Manager Chen would really punish them, so they scattered like birds and beasts. Manager Chen just turned around and looked in the direction where Wu Di disappeared, then he walked away without looking back.
Wu Di came to Zhang Lin's grave. He thought that since no one had paid attention to this place for three years, it would be full of weeds. He didn't expect to see a clean grave here. There were even burning paper money ashes and some dried up offerings in front of the grave.
He walked to the grave and stared at it for a while. Then he said, "Zhang Lin. I can't believe there's someone else here besides me to help you with your grave. It seems like I have to thank this person. Brother, in the blink of an eye, three years have passed. Now that I've become even stronger, you won't laugh at my wishful thinking anymore, will you? I can do the oaths I made in front of your grave. "It's a pity that you're not here. Otherwise, I'll definitely let you live a glorious life with me."
Zhang Lin was dead. After so many years, he was probably only left with a pile of white bones. Wu Di only stayed here for a while before leaving. He did not go back to the mountain gate immediately. Instead, he went to Manager Chen's residence. He was very curious about who took care of Zhang Lin's grave while he was away for the past three years. He also wanted to repay this person.
When Manager Chen opened the door and saw Wu Di standing outside, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. The current Wu Di was no longer the same as before. With his disciple attire, no one dared to disrespect him.
"Don't be so nervous. I just came here to ask who was helping me tidy up Zhang Lin's grave during my absence." Wu Di knew what Manager Chen was afraid of.
Although he was only an Early Heavenly Strong Stage warrior, his cultivation base had already created a strong pressure on Qi Condensation cultivators. It was already a good thing that Manager Chen could still stand and talk to him.
Manager Chen wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and said, "Yes... It's a few inner sect disciples who come here often."
A few inner sect disciples? Wu Di thought for a moment and knew it should be Mu Lee and the others. He had told Mu Lee and the others about Zhang Lin, but he didn't expect them to be so considerate. Wu Di felt warm in his heart. He couldn't wait to see them.
Wu Di turned around and was about to leave. At this time, Manager Chen said, "Oh. Also, Fairy Meng often stops in front of the grave."
"Fairy Meng?" Wu Di stopped in his tracks. The only person who could be called Fairy Meng was Meng Bingyao.
"Yes, yes." Manager Chen was terrified.
Wu Di didn't say anything else. He just threw a Middle-grade Spirit Stone to Manager Chen and left.
After leaving Spirit Medicine Garden, Wu Di directly went up the stairs. When he arrived at Soaring Peak, he saw the Seven Star Sect's mountain gate that he had not seen for a long time. Everything here was the same as before. Although he had only been a disciple of the Seven Star Sect for a short period of time, he had developed some attachment to this place.
When the disciple guarding the door saw the black robe Wu Di was wearing, he subconsciously cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Uncle-Master."
It was normal for a first-generation disciple to be called Uncle-Master. However, due to Wu Di's young age and Wu Di's current cultivation base, he was only at the Heavenly Strong Stage realm. Therefore, it wasn't strange that they addressed Wu Di as Martial Uncle.
Wu Di directly took out the medicinal Sect Leaders given to him by the Sect Leader that came down from the mountain. When these two disciples checked the medicinal jade tablets, they immediately made way for Wu Di to enter the mountain gate.
Wu Di didn't stand on ceremony and entered the sect openly. There were many new disciples in the outer sect of the Seven Star Sect, many of whom were unfamiliar to Wu Di. However, when he was an outer circle disciple at that time, he didn't know many people.
However, no matter if they knew Wu Di or not, when they saw the black disciple uniform he was wearing, no one dared to step forward anymore, unless they were not afraid of death.
Wu Di didn't stay here for long. He summoned Silverdust and flew towards Alkaid Peak on his sword. The Alkaid Peak was the main peak of the Seven Star Sect. There were naturally many people who knew Wu Di here. However, three years had changed Wu Di's appearance. In particular, Wu Di did not intentionally decorate his clothes. There were some stubble on his face. He looked much more mature than before.
However, some people still recognized him from Wu Di's clothes and his appearance, especially the two inner circle disciples who were guarding the main hall. Back then, Wu Di had used the Seven Star Spirit Hall to obtain a lot of precious resources for the Seven Star Sect. It was very difficult for others not to have an impression of him.
Just as Wu Di was about to take out his jade tablet and request to see the Sect Master, one of the disciples cupped his hands and said, "Martial Uncle, please wait a moment. We will immediately go in and report to the Sect Master."
Wu Di looked at the sky. Was the Sect Master still in the main hall?
However, the person who went in to report soon came back. He said, "Martial Uncle, please. The Sect Master is waiting inside."
"Thank you." Wu Di said and walked in.
When he entered the spacious and majestic main hall, he saw the Sect Master Ming Yuan sitting on the pavilion.
Ming Yuan raised his head to look at the person who came. When he saw that Wu Di was already at the peak of the Early Period of the Heavenly Strong Stage realm, he was not surprised, but rather a little disappointed.
After all, Wu Di was only at the Early Period of the Heavenly Strong Stage realm when he left. Now, he was only at the peak of the Early Period of the Heavenly Strong Stage realm. However, such an outcome was quite normal. Even the geniuses among the cultivators could only have such a huge gap.
