Gu Yunzheng knew that this letter had to be written, so he could only grit his teeth and do as told.

After he finished writing the letter.

After filling in the address and handing it to Wu Yuekong, Gu Yunzheng left dejectedly.

"Heh, Young Master Wu... I didn't expect He Tingfeng, that dog, to have such a rich cousin. A newly initiated disciple actually has three thousand taels on him!"

"Plus, once this letter is sent out, it will quickly be another three thousand taels, adding up to six thousand taels!"

"We've hit the jackpot this time!"

Zhao Lefu leaned over and said with a fawning expression.

"Shut up!"

"What do you mean 'earned'? We're just collecting a debt. It's only right to pay back what you owe, understand?"

"Yes, yes, yes..."

"But Young Master Wu, are you really going to take in this idiot Gu Yunzheng and even stand up for him?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Am I that stupid?"

"He Tingfeng and Xu Youwu, those two guys, both disappeared after teaching that newcomer named Li Yun a lesson. There's definitely something fishy about this."

"You two, secretly investigate the background of that Li Yun over the next couple of days, then send someone to keep an eye on him... If that Li Yun shows up, let me know. Maybe we can make another windfall!"

"Haha, Young Master Wu's insight is profound!"

...

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

Zhao Lefu, who was responsible for gathering information, excitedly ran up to Wu Yuekong.

"Haha, Young Master Wu, there's news."

"About that Li Yun, you wouldn't know unless you asked, haha, but once I asked, it turned out to be quite interesting."

Wu Yuekong was drinking a bit of wine at the moment and immediately became interested.

"What is it?"

"Could it be that this Li Yun is someone's illegitimate son?"

"Illegitimate son? Heh, Young Master Wu, you're really amusing. That kid... how should I put it? At first, when I inquired, I was really startled. According to some disciples from Courtyard 95 of the Ren Branch, that Li Yun seems to have an Inner Sect background. Not long ago, he even went to the Inner Sect to drink with another disciple from Courtyard 95 of the Ren Branch, Zhang Chu."

"An Inner Sect background, huh? At the time, I thought, this kind of person is hard to gauge, better not to provoke them if possible."

"But who knew, I then heard another piece of news, saying that this kid Li Yun originally had a fiancée named Huang Yiyi, who is also an Outer Sect Disciple who just joined this year, in Geng 38 Courtyard."

"But she was actually snatched away... And this kid Li Yun didn't dare to say a word, never mentioning Huang Yiyi at all, as if it never happened."

Wu Yuekong's mouth dropped open wide, a little incredulous: "That cowardly?"

"Exactly, I felt something was off."

"If he really had an Inner Sect background, how could his fiancée be snatched away? Who would be so blind as to provoke someone with an Inner Sect background?"

"So, I found a way to contact Huang Yiyi from Geng 38 Courtyard."

"Haha, well, well..."

"That woman is also quite something. She has some looks, but she's incredibly arrogant, looking down on people completely. But later, as soon as she heard I was looking for trouble with Li Yun, she very unceremoniously spilled all the details about Li Yun."

"Only then did I realize that Li Yun has no Inner Sect background at all."

"The one who truly has an Inner Sect background is Zhang Chu from Courtyard 95 of the Ren Branch. He is the younger brother of Senior Sister Zhang Ruohan from the Vermilion Bird Courtyard's Inner Sect. Li Yun probably just happened to have a good relationship with Zhang Chu and went to the Inner Sect thanks to Zhang Chu. Just because he went to the Inner Sect that one time, haha, he even offended Senior Brother Zhao Chuanfeng from the Azure Dragon Courtyard!"

"Offended Zhao Chuanfeng?"

"Not only that. According to Huang Yiyi, Senior Brother Liu Ningkong from the White Tiger Courtyard's Inner Sect also dislikes Li Yun and only hasn't personally attacked Li Yun out of concern for his reputation..."

"And another one, Liu Ningkong?"

"Damn..."

Wu Yuekong's expression was incredibly complex.

In reality, he also had an Inner Sect background. His older brother Wu Yuetian was also an Inner Sect Disciple, cultivating in the Xuanwu Courtyard, but his background was not as prominent as those like Zhao Chuanfeng and Liu Ningkong.

He knew better than anyone how miserable an Outer Sect Disciple would be if they offended both Zhao Chuanfeng and Liu Ningkong at the same time.

It could be said that there was no hope for the Inner Sect in this life.

"I really can't understand it, how could someone's luck be this bad?"

"Alright!"

"Since this Li Yun is so unlucky, I'd feel bad if I didn't do something to him. This is a good opportunity to do a favor for Zhao Chuanfeng and Liu Ningkong and gain a small favor in return."

"Go..."

"Starting today, keep a close eye on Courtyard 95 of the Ren Branch. As soon as Li Yun appears, capture him and bring him to me!"

...

In the Valley, Li Yun had no idea that he was being targeted again because of Gu Yunzheng.

At this moment, he was staring blankly at the System panel.

【Host: Li Yun】

【Age: 16】

【Aptitude: Fifth Grade Middle】

【Identity: Heavenly Martial Sect, Courtyard 95 of the Ren Branch Outer Sect Disciple】

【Realm: Houtian, Body Tempering Fourth Layer】

【Martial Arts: Sorrowful Wind Sword Technique (Beginner), Basic Stance (Stance Intent, Can Be Sublimated+), Coiling Silk Force (Perfected), Reversing Fate Art (Initial Success), Thunderclap Fist (Fist Intent), Flying Star Step (Perfected)... Can Expand.】

【Martial Dao Comprehension Points: 1.5 million】

In two days, he had already sublimated the remaining five stances of the 【Basic Stance Training】 to produce True Intent, and even squeezed out some time to observe the wind at the Valley entrance, raising his Martial Dao Comprehension Points to 1.5 million.

But he didn't expect that after all twelve types of Stance Training had been sublimated to produce True Intent, the 【Basic Stance Training】 on the panel actually showed the "Can Be Sublimated" prompt again.

He had already comprehended True Intent for all of them, how could they still be sublimated?

What would it be after further sublimation?

Originally, Li Yun was preparing to take advantage of the ample Martial Dao Comprehension Points to upgrade the 【Reversing Fate Art】 further, but upon seeing this prompt, he couldn't help but hesitate slightly.

"Damn it, anyway, in this Valley, I'm not afraid of lacking Comprehension Points."

"Let's just sublimate it again and see!"

Li Yun didn't think too much about it and directly started consuming Comprehension Points on the 【Basic Stance Training】.

The result was—

In an instant, only 500,000 Comprehension Points remained on the panel!

This meant that this sublimation of the 【Basic Stance Training】 actually used up a full 1 million Comprehension Points. This consumption was simply terrifying.

It was even more consumption than sublimating all twelve Stances to comprehend True Intent combined.

It made Li Yun's teeth ache slightly.

But soon.

He was deeply attracted by what the System manifested in his mind.

It was still that figure, starting from the first Stance and performing the 【Basic Stance Training】. Each one flowed smoothly and naturally, and each Stance exuded its own unique True Intent.

But as it was performed.

The twelve types of Stance Training performed by the figure, along with the twelve kinds of True Intent they exuded, were actually gradually merging.

Gradually, they became eleven Stances, ten Stances... seven Stances... five Stances...

When it finally settled into stillness, only a simple Standing Stance remained, along with an incredibly profound True Intent enveloping it like a mass, almost forming a ring-shaped halo covering the entire body!

Profound information surged into his mind.

Li Yun instantly understood what this Stance was. It was called the Primordial Chaos Stance!
