Su Feng nodded.
The two left the mansion together and headed to the paper-making shop.
Soon, Su Feng saw his second great-uncle sitting in the living room waiting.
"Second Uncle!"
Su Feng greeted him with a smile!
"You're here! Come, sit down and let's talk!" Second Uncle smiled happily when he saw that it was Su Feng.
Zhu Dachang wanted to sit down with them, but his second uncle glared at him, causing him to pout and reluctantly go about his business.
"Did Second Uncle call me here today for something?"
Su Feng asked directly.
After all, he had just given them a silver dollar the day before yesterday, and the paper shop had been doing alright these past two days, so there was no reason for them to be having any difficulties.
Second Uncle took a sip of tea before speaking, albeit somewhat hesitantly.
"Actually, there's nothing special about calling you here today. You handled Ma Linxiang's matter very well yesterday; I couldn't have done it this way either. However, when you made your move last night, were you using lightning magic?"
The second uncle's words were tinged with probing and suspicion.
Su Feng immediately understood and nodded, saying, "Yes, it uses lightning magic, but I only learned it recently, so its power is not great!"
"Su Feng, even in a major sect like Maoshan, only true disciples can learn thunder magic. Tell me honestly, which sect did you follow?"
The second uncle's cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp gaze as he stared intently at Su Feng.
Su Feng was somewhat puzzled, but he still honestly explained, "I have no sect or school; I figured all of this out on my own!"
"Really not?"
Second Uncle tilted his head and looked at Su Feng with a sidelong glance.
"No, Second Uncle, I swear!"
Su Feng immediately said.
He was able to do all these things entirely thanks to Tianyan's help; he had no connection with any sect.
Second Uncle looked at Su Feng for a while, and finally sighed: "Actually, I called you here to make sure you're not from another sect. After all, I gave you two Maoshan manuals a couple of days ago, which could easily violate Maoshan's rules. If you learned them on your own, then it's fine."
Su Feng nodded seriously.
Suddenly, the second uncle opened his eyes wide, stood up in shock, and stared at Su Feng.
"you you you!"
Second Uncle pointed at Su Feng as if he couldn't catch his breath.
"Second Uncle!"
Su Feng was also somewhat taken aback by this scene, but he quickly recovered and hurriedly helped his second uncle up.
The second uncle took several breaths to calm down, then tightly grasped Su Feng's hand, his voice trembling slightly.
"Su Feng, did you really learn all of this on your own?"
Second Uncle stared at Su Feng, as if trying to see through him.
"Yes, I just figured these things out by myself. What's wrong, Second Uncle? Is there a problem?" Su Feng was also puzzled by the look he was getting.
"Good good!"
The second uncle suddenly showed surprise and delight, and his hand holding Su Feng trembled even more.
Su Feng was terrified that the old man might not catch his breath and would die right away!
"A genius, an unparalleled genius!"
Second Uncle grabbed Su Feng tightly and shouted eagerly.
"Second Uncle, what's wrong?"
Su Feng was somewhat bewildered.
"You little rascal, I can't believe I didn't notice sooner! Sigh!" Second Uncle said with a face full of regret.
"What happened?"
Su Feng was left speechless, both amused and exasperated.
Second Uncle seemed to have thought of something, sighed, and calmed down, saying, "What a pity, what a pity, I am just a lay disciple, otherwise I would definitely accept you as my disciple on behalf of Maoshan!"
"why?"
Su Feng poured his second uncle a cup of tea, his mind filled with doubts.
“You rascal, you don’t know this. Do you know why most people who want to learn Taoism must be led in by a master?” Second Uncle said patiently.
Su Feng shook his head.
Second Uncle sighed.
“Su Feng, there are countless people who study the Dao, but most of them are mediocre. Only a few can be considered geniuses or people with special opportunities, but even they need a master to guide them in. But you are different. Do you know why?”
"why?"

Chapter Twenty-One: Second Uncle was extremely excited and wanted to recommend Su Feng to become his disciple.
"You are a peerless genius, one in a million, do you understand?"
The second uncle grabbed Su Feng excitedly and said, word by word.
"Second Uncle, this can't be that outrageous!"
Su Feng chuckled twice; naturally, he wouldn't tell anyone about Tianyan's affairs.
"You really don't understand, kid. Do you even know who the senior disciple of Maoshan is? He's a genius who's cultivated for several lifetimes. Even he needs a master to lead him into the sect. Do you know how amazing you are?"
My second uncle was somewhat disappointed in me.
Su Feng nodded quickly, somewhat surprised himself.
However, he was able to cultivate entirely because Tianyan changed his physique and aptitude. If he made a mistake during cultivation, Tianyan would remind him, otherwise it wouldn't have been so easy.
Seeing this, the second uncle knew he had wasted his breath and immediately said, "You don't understand, kid. No, Lin Jiu has gone out. In a few days, I will tell him about this and have him take you as a disciple on behalf of Maoshan!"
"Second Uncle, is that alright?"
Su Feng was immediately filled with helplessness.
Now that he has the Heavenly Evolution, as long as he has the secret manuals, he can easily learn any cultivation techniques, Taoist methods, or even other skills, so there is absolutely no need for him to seek a master.
"You little brat, do you even know how powerful Maoshan is!"
Second Uncle glared at Su Feng, looking somewhat angry.
"I know, but I really have no intention of becoming an apprentice!" Su Feng said helplessly, while placing the two manuals he had been carrying on the table.
"Second Uncle, thank you for your secret manual. I have other matters to attend to, but I'll come to visit you again next time!"
As Su Feng spoke, he took two steps in three and left the paper shop.
"Hey, did you learn it yet? You're already back?"
Second Uncle picked up the secret manual and prepared to catch up with Su Feng.
"I've learned it! I've learned it!"
Su Feng quickened his pace, leaving his second uncle behind.
"Oh dear, why is this old man so agitated?"
Su Feng quickly returned home, muttering to himself as he went back to his study.
After dealing with some business matters, Su Feng couldn't wait to take out the yellow talisman and prepare to cultivate.
He simply doesn't have enough time now; he hasn't really practiced the complete talisman encyclopedia and the Book of Changes that he finished before.
Seeing that there were not many yellow talismans left, Su Feng asked Uncle Fu to go out and buy a lot more.
"Sure enough, another few hundred silver dollars are gone. Cultivation really costs money!"
Su Feng sighed, "A few hundred silver dollars is equivalent to a family earning several years' worth of money."
Suddenly, Su Feng noticed the jade pendant he had bought from the market a few days earlier lying to the side, and his curiosity was piqued. He immediately picked it up to examine it.
He had wanted to study it before, but he never had the time.
The jade pendant was carved like a Pixiu, and in Su Feng's eyes, spiritual energy was being absorbed into it from time to time.
"Could this thing be an object that absorbs spiritual energy? It can't really be a Pixiu that only takes in and doesn't give out!"
Su Feng examined it curiously, then circulated his cultivation technique to try and absorb the spiritual energy inside the jade pendant.
Soon, a stream of pure spiritual energy was absorbed into his body.
This surprised Su Feng.
"This is really a good thing!"
Su Feng smiled and immediately began to fully circulate his cultivation technique to absorb the spiritual energy from the jade pendant.
Whoohoo!
I don't even know what's happened!
Su Feng's clothes fluttered without wind, and his aura rose.
dong dong!
It sounded like a heartbeat, and also like thunder.
The next moment, his aura exploded, and Su Feng suddenly opened his eyes, exhaling a breath of stale air.
"It really is a treasure! There's actually a pure spiritual energy inside, which allowed me to break through to the second level of Qi Transformation!" Su Feng looked at the jade pendant in his hand with surprise, his eyes full of delight.
