Everyone is Secretly in Love with Me

CH.4: Recruiting Disciples

With the formation of the chain, the surroundings of Chun Shen Mountain suddenly loomed, covered by an almighty spiritual power, indiscernible to the naked eye. Only if a genuine cultivator probed with their divine sense, would they be able to see Chun Shen Mountain.  

All the candidates present watched the chain in the air, and after half a minute, a youth in blue stepped forth and jumped up to the head of the chain, laughing loudly: “This time, I will be first place.” 

Then he proceeded, his silhouette gradually covered by drifting clouds until no longer seen. 

Lin Zhizhi took a glance, and recognized that this person was also another cultivation clan’s son, the Lan Clan’s Di son. He’s always been arrogant, but his qualifications weren’t as good as him and Su Yu, possessing the earth spiritual root, causing the Lan Clan plenty of worries. 

Following the Lan youth’s lead, many figures also passed through the chain, unwilling to fall behind. As the numbers increased, several blood-curdling shrieks flew in the air–sounds of people falling down to their deaths. 

Let the latecomers flinch. 

The solemn voice from before coldly snorted: “Entering my door and harboring evil intentions! Wretched!”

As time passed bit by bit, the people left on this side of Chun Shen Mountain gradually reduced. 

Su Yu lips twitched and said to Lin Zhizhi, “Shall we go too?”

Lin, Ice Chunk, Zhizhi faintly nodded, unspeaking, swept his sleeves and arrived in front of the chain, raising a foot and stepping up. 

At that instance, various people, including sect elders and spiritual masters, were all watching him. 

He was Lin Zhizhi, and his father hopes for him to become his namesake.1

Even in this Zhonglu, this land of immortals, it’s extremely rare to see a heavenly spirit root aptitude—-a heavenly spirit root!—-in the four remote continents, you won’t even be able to pick out  a single one within the whole land! When they’re able to find such a spirit root, sect elders would loudly sing thanks to the high heaven and sing thanks to the shining sun and sing thanks to the earth for allowing such an auspicious person to be born! Even among cultivators, it is scarce. 

Just with Lin Zhizhi’s qualifications, it would cause a sensation among his ancestors, appointing him as a young lord, from pallet medicine to spiritual tools, they’d all give him the green light to use. If no accidents happen, he’ll be the family’s prosperity for a thousand years, this sect exam was no more than a mere formality for him. 

—-From Lin Zhizhi, to Su Yu’s heavenly spirit root, to a few others’ once-in-a-millennium special physiques, it seems that an era of great talents will come soon. 

The black haired youth walked silently on the chain hanging high in the air, wind blowing through his clothes and hair, creating a whistling sound. Clearly it’s only a thin chain, yet he’s walking steadily. The sun, thousands of miles away and isolated in its almighty power, seemed to be close behind Lin Zhizhi, as if willing to bow down for him.

 Such a person, one wants to surrender, but wants even more to conquer. 

On this mountain peak, countless people watched him in envy and amazement. 

Behind Lin Zhizhi, Su Yu’s gaze was glued to his back.

Finally, just once, he was able to openly look at him like this. 

This person, this person whom he’s guarded for 16 years…… one day will be his. 

One day.
