After explaining Xiao Qiandong's mission, Liu Nian did not go directly to Haoqi Mountain, but went to Bai Xingqie's residence.
Since Liu Nian went to the Zhengyang Realm to perform the mission, he was assigned by Bai Xingke by name rather than receiving it on his own initiative. Therefore, after completing the mission, it needs to be judged by Bai Xingke himself.
There are huge palaces standing neatly in rows. The building materials are the most common stone, and there are no flowers, plants and trees around for decoration. Simplicity and regularity are the only characteristics of this place.
In the stone house, Bai Xingqie was sitting on a wooden chair, eyes slightly narrowed, twirling his white beard, listening to Liu Nian's report.
"Master, the above is the specific experience I encountered during this trip.
Although there are some twists and turns in the process, it can be regarded as the completion of the task you gave me. I also ask the leader to judge the shortcomings. "
Bai Xingqie opened his eyes and smiled, nodded to Liu Nian, and said loudly: "Zhengyang Realm is the largest gathering point of practicing families in the world of cultivation. There are always monks from sects who go to recruit disciples. Unfortunately, the local The family monks hated the sect monks from the bottom of their hearts.
No matter how humble and courteous the monks of the sect are, it is difficult to eliminate the barriers with them. Very few sects can gain a good reputation after acting there.
But my nephew, you are able to talk harmoniously with the locals, and even made the Huang family, the most powerful in the Zhengyang realm, owe you a favor. I believe that when the enrollment ceremony is held next spring, there will definitely be many family monks coming to our Haoqi Immortal Sect. .
Nephew, you have done an excellent job in your propaganda mission this time. It can be said that it is impeccable. If it were another person, it would be impossible to achieve the results you did. I really saw you right! "
"Master, you don't need to praise me so much. I will be worthy of it. For the Haoqi Immortal Sect and for our common home, this is what I should do." Liu Nian looked at Bai Xingqie affectionately and said : "Just give me more reward."
"Don't worry, the reward I promise to give you will only be more, not less."
Bai Xingqie looked at Liu Nian with a faint look, and said seriously: "However, there is something I want to confirm. I hope that you, my nephew, can tell me the truth."
Liu Nian stood up straight and looked at Bai Xingqie without any sign of weakness. Because although the content of his report this time was concealed, everything he said was true.
Whether it was Gui Yi or the Ling Bao Soul Bead, they had all been told to Bai Xingqie. There was only one thing Liu Nian was hiding, and that was the existence of the inner demon Liu Nian.
"Master!" Liu Nian said seriously: "You can ask whatever you want, I will never lie to you!"
At most, don't tell... After all, no one has a little secret.
Moreover, the rules of the Haoqi Immortal Sect clearly state that no matter whether they are elders, deacons or disciples, they have the right to maintain privacy.
"Nephew, when you were talking to that old lady Qin Wuyin, you called me 'godfather', were you serious?
If not, I have no intention of going to Yunxuanzong to discuss the marriage for you.
If so, then call your godfather twice first and let me hear it! "
Bai Xingqie raised his chin, stroking his beard, with a proud smile on his face, waiting for Liu Nian's reply.
Both Da Nian and Er Nian saw that Bai Xing wanted to recognize him as his son.
Although calling him daddy is indispensable, it is not Liu Danian's character to find a daddy for no reason and let others take over his seniority.
In the consciousness space, Liu Dayan sneered slightly.
He knew that Bai Xingqie was very kind to Liu Nian. Ever since he used that brick to win his admiration, Bai Xingqie had been treating Liu Nian as his son. Whether he called him daddy or not, it actually didn't make any difference. .
Old guy, you want to take advantage of me, how can you succeed?
"Second thought, give me control of your mouth."
"Okay Da Nian, just scream!"
…
Liu Danian, who had just taken over control of his mouth, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth after hearing Liu Ernian's words.
After some emotional adjustment, Liu Danian controlled his facial expression, raised his head and sighed, and said with an aggrieved face: "Master, since you don't plan to take care of me, then I have no choice but to marry far away...
But don’t worry, although I left Haoqi Immortal Sect, I will come back to my parents’ home every hundred years. "
"Nephew, there's no point in bluffing me. I can see that you are not interested in that girl named Qin Wan."
Bai Xingqie smiled slightly, stood up, walked to Liu Nian's side, pressed Liu Nian's shoulder, and said softly: "Besides, I know you are reluctant to leave the Haoqi Immortal Sect!"
As his shoulder came into contact with Bai Xingqie's palm, Liu Danian's special ability was activated and he could clearly feel the other person's inner emotions.
Just when Liu Danian was about to speak, he suddenly felt his body sink, and an incredibly powerful mana came from his shoulder. It soon invaded his body, trying to seal Liu Nian's mana.
This change happened so suddenly, Liu Nian did not expect that the leader who always smiled and was kind would do something like this.
Although Liu Danian quickly mobilized his magic power to counterattack, he was still directly defeated.
After this short competition, Liu Dayian also realized that whether it was the total amount of magic power or the quality of magic power, Bai Xingqie was far superior to Liu Ernian's body.
Bai Xingqie's face was still kind, like an old father who loves his children, and he said in a low tone: "Nephew, I know you are very good at grasping emotions, so I won't let you beat around the bush and make excuses.
If you don't scream again, I will pack you up and send you to Yunxuan Sect. When you have a baby with that little girl named Qin Wan, I will kidnap you back and continue to be the elder of the Haoqi Immortal Sect. "
By sensing the other person's inner emotions, Liu Danian believed that as long as he didn't call him dad these two times, Bai Xingqie would definitely keep his word.
"Er Nian, come and call me!"
"Da Nian, I think it's better for you to call daddy these two times! After all, it was you who controlled your mouth and made the promise to Qin Wuyin."
"Er Nian, you have changed. We used to be indistinguishable from each other."
There was a hint of sadness in Liu Danian's tone, which made Liu Ernian very flustered. He hurriedly said: "Da Nian, let's talk to each other!"
…
Shaoqing, Liu Nian faced Bai Xingqie, smiled and shouted softly: "Dad..."
"Hey~, that's a good attitude, there's still one more thing to do!" Bai Xingqie reminded with a smile.
Liu Nian's smiling expression turned into gritted teeth. Although his tone was still gentle, he said with a strong sense of unwillingness: "Turtle..."
The smile on Bai Xingqie's face did not change, and he said coldly: "I'll give you another chance."
A short time passed...
Bai Xingqie sat upright on the wooden chair again, with a leisurely expression and a proud smile.
Liu Nian stood there with a gloomy expression, his face full of unhappiness because he had an extra father.
"Master, do you have anything else to do?" Liu Nian said with a cold face, "I want to go back to Haoqi Mountain to see my apprentice."
Bai Xingqie looked at Liu Nian meaningfully. He originally wanted to call Liu Nian "godson", but he always felt a little uncomfortable. After thinking about it, he finally felt that it was better to call Liu Nian by his first name.
"Liu Nian, are you sure you want to accept Xiao Qiandong as a deacon? Although he is very smart, he seems not suitable to be a deacon."
According to the rules of the Haoqi Immortal Sect, the elders have the right to choose deacons independently, and they can even choose monks outside the Haoqi Immortal Sect, and they do not need the approval of the head at all.
However, if the deacon selected by the elders violates the sect rules, the elders will bear full responsibility.
Bai Xingqie asked this question because he was worried that Liu Nian's decision would harm him. After all, judging from Xiao Qiandong's actions, he was not a person who was willing to be taken advantage of by others.
Liu Nian sneered slightly and said in a deep tone: "Master, I cannot guarantee that Xiao Qiandong will not betray the Haoqi Immortal Sect. I can only guarantee that he will never betray me."
Bai Xingqie smiled and didn't say anything else on this topic. He stretched first, then got up and walked out of the house, telling Liu Nian: "Take good care of the house, I'll be back soon."
Liu Nian asked: "Master, where are you going?"
"Where else can we go? Yunxuanzong."
