[Ding!]

{...}
{This is not what I think it is, right?}
Rong Yuan asked as he smiled wryly.
[...]
[...Yes, in a sense...]
[...Your thoughts are really weird, if it were another man in your place, they would be drooling over right now after seeing this...]
The system spoke about Rong Yuan's way of thinking. He was too innocent for his age.
{...}
{Eh, why though?}
Rong Yuan asked confused, he didn't get the meaning of the system's words.
[...Sigh...]
[Sometimes, I wonder why your mental age is unknown... But now I know why...]
The system finally realized why it was unable to measure Rong Yuan's mental age. It's because he was both mature and childish at the same time.
{...Ok. I don't understand a few your words...}
Rong Yuan thought as he spoke to the system.
{-But can this effect be undone?}
[...No, unfortunately for you... It would be best to take it off to disable the effect!]
{Oh! Great idea!}
{But... I can't do it now...}
Rong Yuan was helpless as he was in a crowded place.
[You just need to be patient and remain calm as you always do.]
{Ok.}
Then Rong Yuan came before the reception area which was designed only for elders of the sect.
"Welcome, Elder! What can I do for you?"
Then a voice was heard along with a female disciple who was in the receptionist's clothes appeared.
"Hello, I would like to meet with the Hall Master, Here is my Elder Token."
"Yes. Please, wait for a moment!"
The receptionist asked for a moment, as she took out some papers, then read them before finally stopping.
"Elder Rong Yuan, you can enter the Hall Master's Room, He is waiting for you inside."
"Thanks. Have a good day."
"Thanks, Elder!"
The female receptionist bowed her head a little, hiding her expression...
Then Rong Yuan passed through the reception area and entered a room behind it.
{It seems the effect only affected the weak cultivators, considering the receptionist's reactions. She didn't seem to be affected by it. This is a good discovery!}
Rong Yuan thought after his little interaction with the female disciple.
[...]
The system was left speechless by Yuan's strange discovery and dumbness...
When the system was observing, the whole time just now, the female receptionist was nervous and barely controlling her emotions. It even sensed the blushing disciple's loud heartbeats.
After Rong Yuan left, the female disciple sighed in relief.
"Good thing, he left. Or else I wouldn't be able to control myself."
She spoke as she accepted that she was able to hold on before the handsome Elder.
In fact, she was trained to meet with powerful figures for this job. And she was ready to meet a lot of powerful cultivators.
But... not with this handsome and charming elder. His charm seemed off-chart for her. Besides, most of the elders were past 30, while this elder was only 18 according to the rumors...
"I wonder if he has a partner?"
She muttered as she imagined...
Hmmm... Poor disciple... There was no place left inside Rong Yuan right now.

Inside the Hall Master's room.
A man was sitting in a circle meditating.
"Knock! Knock!"
As someone knocked on his room, he slightly opened his eyes, and his eyes shone in golden color for a moment, filled with spirit power.
Then he spoke, golden light disappearing from his eyes.
"You may enter, Elder Yuan."
The door opened and Rong Yuan entered, bowing his head he greeted the Hall Master.
"Greetings, Hall Master Dong!"
Hall Master Jing Dong nodded his head and gestured for Yuan to take a sit.
Rong Yuan looked at the Hall Master of the Resources Hall.
He remembered him, his interactions, and his betrayal too...
Yes, this old man was one of the traitors who leaked out the Sect's secret information to their enemies.
He was one of the people who were responsible for the destruction of the previous sect, in his last life.
However, he had built the sect by himself again, regaining its glory, strength, and fame.
But, one thing that made Yuan think was the old man always helped him whenever he was in trouble before the betrayal. His intentions were genuine and sincere too.
Therefore, Rong Yuan didn't believe that Hall Master Jing Dong was a traitor.
In fact, there was another reason he didn't think he was a traitor.

He clearly remembered what happened at that time.
Their sect was being attacked from all directions, the enemy had outnumbered them by at least ten times.
They were trying to do their best to defend the sect, but, the enemy knew exactly what were their strength, tactics, and locations.
Even their sect's famous Thousand Swords Protection Formation was broken or disabled by the traitors leaving them no time to prepare for the surprise attack.
The situation was very dire, so the Sect Master gave his position to Rong Yuan and told him to run while defending the disciples of the sect.
He reluctantly agreed, but he decided to come back after delivering the disciples to a safe place.
When Rong Yuan was defending the disciples from the attackers, he was at the Spirit Grandmaster Stage at that time.
Suddenly, three attackers with Spirit King Stage cultivation level appeared and blocked their way.
He could fight with one of them and hold his ground but three of them could easily defeat him and massacre the survivors.
He didn't know what to do at that time, and also he couldn't just directly attack the pursuers. He had to buy time for the surviving disciples, and there were his two disciples among them too.
Then, it happened!
Two of the pursuers attacked him and started to fight, leaving others defenseless. Even though there were disciples who were at the peak of the Spirit User Stage, it was futile against a mighty Spirit King Stage cultivator.
Thus, the third pursuer attacked the running disciples, he started to kill them one by one, ruthlessly.
It was a scary scene to see. Rong Yuan could only watch helplessly, as the other two pursuers always would block his path whenever he tried to pass them and defend the disciples.
Suddenly, someone screamed in a loud voice. Sure, others were screaming too... They were screaming from feeling fear, despair, and helplessness.
But the one who screamed this time was very familiar to Rong Yuan. Hearing the despairing voice, his eyes looked in that direction instantly, and when he saw who it was, his eyes opened in shock and disbelief. Then his expression changed into pure rage.
His entire demeanor changed and his power level skyrocketed. He started to use the forbidden essence, the life essence to be more exact.
His eyes turned red and his killing intent rose drastically. He looked at the two pursuers directing his killing intent, and that left the two in stunning motion.
Then, using the chance, he dashed out, breaking free from the two pursuers, and came before the figure who was in a pool of red blood.
