No cheat code, right? I'll make one myself.

A few days after Yunlin left with the old man, a catastrophe befell this small village.

A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage walked into the small mountain village without concealing his aura, and then killed everyone he saw with the sword in his hand.

"Damn Zhou Feng, isn't he gifted? Will he definitely reach the Nascent Soul stage within a hundred years? I killed your beloved, I wonder if you will develop a demon in your heart?"

This cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage is from the same sect as Yunlin's current sect, called the Siyue Sword Sect.

At this moment, Zhou Feng, as he mentioned, had only reached the initial stage of Qi training. However, he broke through to the initial stage of Qi training in just four days. This kind of talent was unique in the entire Siyue Sword Sect.

Originally, Zhou Feng's good talent was a good thing for the entire Siyue Sword Sect, but unfortunately, the Siyue Sword Sect now has two factions, and the faction that Zhou Feng belongs to has fewer people. However, due to the appearance of Zhou Feng, it has a tendency to occupy the upper hand.

If we ignore him, Zhou Feng's faction will surely succeed in suppressing his faction in a hundred years.

So how could they just let Zhou Feng continue to practice? Although the sect stipulated that killing each other was not allowed, there were still many ways to interfere with a person's practice.

When the elders of this faction heard that Zhou Feng had a childhood sweetheart waiting for him, they immediately set their sights on the small mountain village where he lived.

A person who still misses his childhood sweetheart after becoming a cultivator must be a sentimental person. After hearing that the person he loves has met with an accident, such a person will inevitably develop a demon in his heart, and his cultivation will not be smooth sailing.

In this way, the elders of this sect arranged their own disciples to go to the small mountain village in Zhoufeng to carry out this task.

In just one day, this disciple massacred the entire small mountain village, leaving no one alive. Even the corpses were burned to ashes, completely disappearing from this world.

When he completed his mission and left, he left a stone tablet at the entrance of the village, which read: "Zhou Feng, if you still want to practice, then hurry back to the sect, otherwise, your small mountain village will be your fate."

Yunlin didn't know that the small mountain village where he lived had suffered a devastating blow. He followed the old man to a sect called Siyue Sword Sect.

After some tests, the Siyue Sword Sect discovered that Weekend’s talent was indeed very good, and he soon became an inner disciple of the Siyue Sword Sect.

What shocked the Siyue Sword Sect even more was that this disciple named Zhou Feng was not only very talented, but also very hardworking in his training. After entering the sect, it seemed that the only thing left in his world was training. Everything else became irrelevant.

It was precisely because of his hard work and the cultivation resources provided by Si Yueyang that he achieved an achievement that shocked the elders of Si Yue Sword Sect: he completed the foundation building in one year.

Moreover, his foundation did not show any signs of instability due to the rapid improvement of his cultivation. Therefore, he was treated more solemnly, directly promoted to a core disciple, and had a mountain of his own.

After he had his own sofa in the sect, he would be able to go back and bring the girl to the Si Yue Sword Sect.

However, when he returned to the small mountain village he had left, he was surprised to find that it was like a deserted place. Except for the crabapple tree at the entrance of the village, there was nothing else around that resembled what he remembered.

After a great fire, only ruins were left of the houses, and the fields became barren because no one cared for them.

Looking at all this unfamiliarity, Zhou Feng closed his eyes in pain, but he heard something in the darkness, as if someone was crying. However, after searching for a while, he was surprised to find that the person crying was himself, and his tears could not stop dripping to the ground.

Groping in the darkness, Zhou Feng took a branch from the crabapple tree that had pushed the girl away, and returned to the April Sword Sect with his eyes closed.

Afterwards, the people of Siyue Sword Sect discovered that this disciple with amazing talent had disappeared, and in his place was an old blind man who only knew how to close his eyes and wander around the sect with a crabapple branch in his hand.

The disciple who had massacred the small mountain village at the beginning, after seeing Zhou Feng's changes, easily guessed that Zhou Feng had returned to the small mountain village, and had discovered that the people in the village had already been massacred. He found a suitable opportunity and left the Siyue Sword Sect alone.

"It looks like we have lost a sword genius. I admit that I made a mistake in my judgment." The old man from the Siyue Sword Sect thought with some regret when he brought Zhou Feng back.

If he had brought back the girl that Zhou Feng was carrying on his back, this talented disciple Zhou Feng would not have been in such a situation. Moreover, with the deep affection that Zhou Feng now showed for the girl, if he practiced the Sword of Affection, the power he unleashed would definitely be able to achieve cross-level combat. Then the day of the rise of the Four Mountains Sword Sect would have arrived.

Unfortunately, there is no if. As a cultivator, his arrogance made him look down on a girl who had no talent for cultivation. It also made him not care so much about the feelings between mortals. After all, how could there be true love between two people whose lifespans differ by hundreds of years?

But there is no if, what is missed is missed.

The Siyue Sword Sect soon noticed Zhou Fang's situation. Not only did they stop supplying him with the cultivation resources they had originally provided him, but the mountain that they had originally promised to give him was also completely deserted.

Zhou Feng seemed to be unconcerned about all this. He just closed his eyes tightly, holding the branch he had broken off from the crabapple tree tightly in his hand. He used his spiritual power to keep the branch warm so that it would not wither.

Several decades passed, and during this period, what Zhou Feng did remained unchanged, and his disciple status continued to decline, becoming a menial disciple. However, judging from his blindness, the sect did not arrange any tasks for him, which made his life even worse.

Ou Fang still had no complaints about such an arrangement, but he protected the crabapple branch in his hand even tighter. Sometimes, if a blind disciple damaged that branch, Zhou Feng would ravage him madly without any regard for his own safety.

Although Zhou Feng had never practiced cultivation, his foundation-building cultivation was perfect and no one among the menial disciples could be higher than him. As time went by, no one dared to cross him anymore. Most of the menial disciples would stay away from Zhou Feng, fearing that he would punch them the next moment.

Many menial disciples left the central gate to live in the outside world, or changed from menial disciples to outer disciples. The group of menial disciples changed countless times.

However, there was no change in what Zhou Feng did. He still used his spiritual power to nourish the branch of the crabapple tree, and then wandered around the sect casually. Even his cultivation level had gradually slipped from the perfect foundation to the middle stage of foundation building because he had not practiced for a long time.

After losing the halo of Zhou Feng, a talented disciple, the faction he originally belonged to began to be suppressed and was eventually squeezed out of the sect. However, Zhou Feng stayed in the sect because of his decadent attitude and his indifference to anything in the outside world.

"Did you see that? The old blind man in front was the brilliant and talented disciple of the Four Mountains Sword Sect 50 years ago. However, he seemed to have suffered a major blow later and became decadent. Then he lost his genius aura and became a menial disciple."

The newly arrived batch of errand disciples, led by the older batch of errand disciples, visited the place where the Zhoufeng Great Wall was standing in a daze, and gave these errand disciples some advice.

"You can attack him, even insult him, he won't change anything. But if you touch the branch he's holding, no one can save you. Because among the menial disciples, his cultivation at the initial stage of foundation building is unmatched by any of us. Before you, the sect elder, you were beaten to death by him."

"Brother, he has reached the initial stage of foundation building, why is he still doing menial work? Can't disciples be promoted to outer disciples after reaching the middle stage of weapon refining?"

A newly arrived errand disciple asked in confusion after hearing what the old errand disciple said.

"Because his heart is dead. A genius who will never make any progress, a disciple who does not contribute to the sect, and a cultivator who does not worry about his own cultivation is of no use to the April Sword Sect.

"Then why is he still allowed to stay in the sect? Shouldn't he be expelled long ago if he is of no use to the sect?"

After hearing the explanation, the new errand disciple became even more confused.

"This can be considered as a kind of compensation from the sect. It seems that he said goodbye to his beloved girl after the elders brought him back. When he succeeded in his cultivation and returned, he found that his beloved had already been killed. Even the body had been burned and could not be found."

"More importantly, his condition has become more serious. He only seemed to be blind before, but recently he seems to have become deaf as well. He has no reaction when others talk to him, but has an extremely strong reaction to the branch in his hand."

"The sect doesn't have any way to deal with a person who can neither see nor hear. So they just let him hang out there and not affect the sect, so they just let it go and accepted it."
