On the top of Purple Gold Mountain in Jiuyang Mountain, there were only twenty-four young people who passed. Among them, Xiao Yuanzi, who had the lowest qualifications for cultivating immortals, turned out to be the best.
"Hahaha! Not bad, your little brother is very capable!"
Li Wu patted Xiao Yuanzi on the shoulder and smiled.
"What? You want to accept him as a disciple?"
Bai Ran asked.
"Although this kid has poor qualifications, he is very perseverant and can be made into a talented person. If he is willing, it would be great to be my disciple."
Li Wu raised his chin and answered.
"He does have a bit of what Junior Brother Bai Wan looked like back then. Why not give it to Junior Brother Bai Wan."
Qingzong, who was standing in the middle, said.
"Elder brother, I don't want to accept a disciple, so Xiao Yuanzi, it's up to you to make the decision."
Bai Ran shook his head and refused.
"Then I want it." Li Wu patted his chest generously and smiled at Xiao Yuanzi: "Child, tell me, what is your name?"
"Disciple He Yuan."
Xiao Yuanzi replied respectfully.
"Okay, from now on, you are my disciple."
After saying that, Li Wu handed He Yuan a copy of "Fire Control" that he had collected on his body. The other children looked at it, not expecting that the apprenticeship ceremony was so generous.
The remaining twenty-three disciples were slowly selected by Qingzong, Yuqiong, and Fengya. Bai Ran stood alone and looked happily at He Yuan, whom he regarded as his younger brother. He hadn't gone back to see his old friend in so many years, and he couldn't help but recall his life before he went up the mountain to cultivate immortality.
After working for a long time, the sky gradually dimmed, and the new disciples all settled in the Luoyue Courtyard on the hillside of Jiuyang Mountain.
Although Li Wu only accepted one disciple, He Yuan, he had to live and eat with other disciples, and his requirements were the most lenient among all the disciples.
"Hey! What kind of thing is that? Your master gave you something good, why don't you show it to us?"
"Yes, we are all from the same sect, so it is natural for us to learn about the immortal way from each other."
"You're right."
Three of them came over deliberately.
"I can't take it out without the master's permission."
He Yuan shook his head and said.
"Haha! He's just a lucky little beggar. I advise you to hand it over. Otherwise, don't blame us three for being rude to you."
One of the three said angrily.
"What? Can't you rob it?"
He Yuan subconsciously ran towards the door. Two of them immediately grabbed He Yuan's limbs, and the last one covered his mouth. The others watched like this, and no one stepped forward to help the helpless He Yuan.
"Don't think that since you are the only disciple of your master, we don't dare to touch you. You were bullied down the mountain because you were a useless beggar. Now on the mountain, you are still a waste. Take it out for me."
One person snatched "Fire Control Technique" from He Yuan's arms and threw it on the bed. Everyone stepped forward to read it.
He Yuan stood up tremblingly, his face covered with a layer of dust on the ground, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. With tears in his eyes, he stared aggrievedly at the group of disciples in front of him like hungry wolves.
At this moment, a scorching gas came from outside the house, and Li Wu and Bai Wang stared at the disciples on the bed.
"You bunch of bastards, your qualifications are all right, but you didn't expect your character to be so despicable. Hand over the Fire Control Technique."
Li Wu said angrily.
"After handing over the Fire Control Technique, except for He Yuan, all of you in this room can go back. We, the Jiuyang Sect, will not breed bad embryos."
Qing Zong, who came up from behind the two of them, pointed at the group of disciples with a fierce look in his eyes and said angrily.
"Why? We just borrowed Brother He Yuan's book to read, what about that? Do you know who my father is? He is the Lord of Fengtian City. It is your blessing that I can come to your Jiuyang Sect."
The leader among the three people had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Oh? The city lord's son? He almost died in Fengtian City last time. We haven't settled the accounts with your father yet, so you came here to cause trouble first."
After Qingzong finished speaking, he threw the young man out, and the other people also left. The disciples who lived in other rooms all poked their heads out to see what he was doing.
Bai Ran didn't say anything else. He silently took the "Fire Control Technique" off the bed and handed it to He Yuan. He helped him make the bed and comforted him: "In the future, there will be a master. Master Qing will be with you." Master will not let you be bullied, so you must keep this secret method away. When your original energy and spiritual consciousness reach the standard of cultivating immortals and enter the realm of refining energy, you can develop towards fire-attribute spells."
"Yes, Brother Bai."
He Yuan nodded.
Qingzong and Li Wu could tell that Bai Han was pretending to be something. He had been distracted all day long. The sect had just been rebuilt, and even Li Wu had become an elder of Jiuyang Sect, but Bai Han didn't even have a position. He didn't want to accept a disciple, and he didn't seem to want to stay in Jiuyang Sect.
"Junior Brother Bai Fan, what's wrong with you?" Qingzong stepped forward and asked, "Why do you think you are so worried?"
"Ever since the death of Mo Yang Xiongjian, I have been afraid that Fang Kun will come to visit me again. I want to go to Beijing to meet the Thunder King on the pretext of Jiuyang Sect recruiting disciples."
Bai Ran replied.
"I heard that Su Zhengdao, the head of the Xu Dao Sect, has finished his retreat today and is punishing some minors within the sect. If Fang Kun still wants to attack, he will not be able to stir up trouble with Su here."
Qingzong told.
"Isn't Fang Kun in the late Nascent Soul stage and about to enter the realm of divine transformation? Why is he still afraid of Su Zheng?"
Bai Ran said in confusion.
"Su Zhengnai is the only master of swordsmanship in the Xudao Sect for thousands of years who has mastered the Blue and White Sword Technique to the ultimate level. Even though he has just reached the Nascent Soul Realm now, the Blue and White Sword Technique is a top-notch secret technique that has the power to cross realms. Fang Kun is also the same I was afraid of this blue and white sword technique, so I didn't dare to break up with Su Zheng."
After Qingzong finished speaking patiently, it was already getting late. In order to prevent the bullying of He Yuan from happening again, Li Wu took He Yuan to his small courtyard to rest.
Lei Guo went to Beijing and was in the palace.
"The envoy from the Tianshu Kingdom will arrive in Shangjing tomorrow. I heard that he has brought a lot of rare spiritual minerals that are not found in the Lei Kingdom, and they are all top grade. But... they came all the way this time because they want to marry into an alliance with the Lei Kingdom. There must be something fishy about the meaning."
In the study, King Lei sat in the center, carefully reviewing the memorial, while the eldest prince Nie Ke, standing in front of him, listened carefully to the three ministers in front of him.
"Marriage? Another marriage. The year before last it was the Kingdom of Li, and this year it's the Kingdom of Tianshang. Do you think our Lei Kingdom is easy to bully? Honestly let us marry our daughter out. Father, we can't allow your only daughter to be married this time. Got married."
Nie Ke is still a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old and not very sensible. Although he is a prince and should be involved in political matters, he is inexperienced. He only knows that the strength of the Lei Kingdom is not weak. Although the marriage seems to promote good relations between the two countries, , but there is a sign of weakness.
That's right, two princesses were married in less than three years. Even Chen Guo and Feng Guo, who were of moderate strength, were not in this situation.
"Your Highness, the Great Prince, the Tianshu Kingdom is the strongest among the seven countries. There are two masters of the Divine Transformation Realm sitting in it. They also have the support of the Canglan Immortal Kingdom and the Ancient Fu Immortal Kingdom. We can only admit defeat."
One of the ministers advised.
"Don't we still have the owner of the Qiankun Escort Agency in Penglai Immortal Kingdom?"
Nie Ke asked.
"The Penglai envoy is unfathomable. Even the king has little communication with him. How can he help us?"
At this point, the pen in King Lei's hand suddenly stopped and he looked at a token held in the other hand, which was given to him by the Penglai envoy a few years ago.
"Ke'er, what you said makes sense. The three beloved ministers will be well entertained when the envoys from the Kingdom of Tianshan arrive tomorrow. As for the marriage, our Lei Kingdom will never agree to it. Also, any good things they bring , the Kingdom of Lei will not accept it, and if anyone dares to be bribed by him privately, don’t blame me for being ruthless in law."
"Yes! Your Majesty."
