"What exactly is happening here?" Chu Yan asked in confusion. "There's only one possibility - the Constitution Awakening Pill given by your Beast God happens to be exactly what's needed to awaken the Purple Heaven Thunder Body!" Medicine Elder explained. Chu Yan nodded silently. This was indeed the most reasonable explanation. "Beast God? What Beast God?" "Wait, where's Yannan? Is Yannan alright?" Chu Xiuran suddenly asked urgently, remembering how that bastard Ma Guanpeng had tried to harm his sister. "She's fine, Yannan is perfectly fine!" Chu Tianyang then recounted in detail everything that had happened after Chu Xiuran lost consciousness. "So you're saying the Beast God saved our Chu family... and helped awaken my special physique?" Chu Xiuran murmured. "Exactly! Without the Beast God's Constitution Awakening Pill, you'd likely have been lying here unconscious for years!" Chu Hongtu said seriously. "Where is the Beast God? I must go thank him personally!" Chu Xiuran said urgently. Just then, a family guard burst in. "Ancestor, Elder! There's someone outside claiming to be an elder from the six-star Thundercloud Sect, requesting to see the family head!" Since the family head was in seclusion, they had come to inform the elders instead. "What? A six-star sect?" Everyone was shocked. Chu Tianyang's expression changed slightly as he said urgently, "Quick, let's receive him!" He didn't know what six stars represented, but any organization that could be called a sect was extraordinary - their strength surely surpassed the Chu family's. Moreover, this was an elder-level figure, someone of exceptional status! "Xiuran, stay here for now!" Chu Tianyang instructed. "The timing of your physique awakening and his arrival can't be coincidence - he must have noticed the phenomenon when you awakened. You might be his target!" "So let's first see what he wants. Don't come out unless we call for you!" "Ancestor, is there danger?" "Don't worry. With the Beast God present, our Chu family faces no danger." Previously when mentioning the six-star Cangyan Sect that Ma family disciples had joined, the Beast God had said he feared them not. While Chu Tianyang had harbored doubts before, after witnessing Chu Xiuran's physique awakening, he no longer questioned the Beast God's words at all. If the Beast God said he feared not, then he truly feared not! With that, Chu Tianyang quickly led Chu Hongtu out to receive their guest. "Medicine Elder, should we go take a look?" Chu Yan asked inwardly. "You may observe from a distance. A mere six-star sect elder is nothing special - his strength likely peaks at fifth-rank Martial King realm. He couldn't detect my presence anyway." "Moreover, such low-level organizations aren't worthy of your joining!" Chu Tianyang and several elders ceremoniously welcomed Thundercloud Sect Elder Meng Wu into the Chu family compound. "Honored elder's visit brings immense honor to our humble Chu family!" Chu Tianyang said respectfully. He could now confirm this was indeed a fifth-rank Martial King expert - the aura he emitted was identical to the Beast God's. "Hah! What brings honor to your family isn't this old man, but that physique-awakening genius of yours!" Meng Wu's deep voice rumbled. "Why? Don't intend to let me meet him?" The towering elder wore cyan-purple robes with golden thunder emblems on his chest. His bronze-like skin gave an indestructible impression, while faint arcs of electricity danced through his jet-black hair - an extraordinary presence indeed! Just as Chu Tianyang feared - he had come for Xiuran. Still, he steeled himself to ask: "He's just a junior who knows no etiquette. We fear he might offend the elder with his rudeness!" "No matter! Geniuses should have their pride. You needn't worry - this elder means no harm. When passing by earlier, I saw the awakening phenomenon and guessed someone had awakened a King Body. Not wishing such a pearl to remain buried, I came to take him as my disciple!" "So bring him out! If he refuses to follow me, I won't force it," Meng Wu declared solemnly. "In that case, this junior shall have him meet the elder." Relieved by the lack of hostile intent, Chu Tianyang agreed. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novelFɪre.net Soon Chu Xiuran appeared, golden lightning still flickering across his body, not yet fully dissipated. "Purple Heaven Thunder Body!" Meng Wu's excitement was immediate. As he'd sensed - a thunder-attribute King Body! And a top-grade one at that! Among King Bodies, this was practically the strongest possible! Even within the Thundercloud Sect, such physiques were extremely rare. With this, the youth could potentially join the sect's elite sequence - a position second only to the sect master himself, surpassing even elders like Meng Wu! "No matter what, I must take him as my personal disciple!" Meng Wu resolved inwardly. "Chu Xiuran pays respects to the elder!" "Good, good! Truly an outstanding youth! Boy, would you be willing to become this old man's disciple?" Meng Wu asked directly. Actually, on his way here, others had already briefed Chu Xiuran about the situation. "This junior will follow his elders' arrangements." The suddenness left Chu Xiuran unprepared. "Tsk! We martial artists seek clarity of heart! Do what you truly wish - hesitating and holding back will only stagnate your martial path!" Meng Wu patted his shoulder. "I've heard from townsfolk about your family's recent near-destruction. Seeing clansmen fall before you... didn't you feel powerless?" "Don't you wish to grow stronger? To protect your family and loved ones in future?" Seeing the youth's pupils contract sharply, Meng Wu knew he'd struck a chord. "Our Thundercloud Sect is where you can grow strong quickly! Especially with your Purple Heaven Thunder Body - it perfectly matches our sect's techniques!" "There, you'll advance rapidly. When family crises come, your strength will see them through safely!" "Moreover, as our sect's disciple, your family gains powerful backing! Who would dare move against them then?" Meng Wu spoke until foam nearly formed at his mouth. Normally he couldn't be bothered - every year, hundreds of thousands sought to join the Thundercloud Sect. But for a Purple Heaven Thunder Body genius? He'd gladly expend the effort to recruit him willingly. "I'm willing to join the Thundercloud Sect!" Chu Xiuran clenched his fists, eyes firm with resolve. Memories flashed - clansmen fallen in blood, his beloved sister nearly violated. He would grow stronger! "But I still need to consult our ancestor and the Beast God!" he added.
