"Oh?" Subiezhi was intrigued by his words and smacked his lips playfully.
Since the old man in charge is so confident in his words, it seems that this young man can indeed excel.
The young man also stood up, cupped his fists and said to the leader: "Long Tao will definitely live up to the leader's high expectations this time!"
The leader looked at him, his eyes full of kindness and hope.
He quickly turned his attention to the two young men behind Subiezhi: "Seeing as you are coming with these two young men this time, you are probably the young hero you recognize, right?"
"Oh, no." Subiezhi waved his hands repeatedly, "It's just a drop in, they are doing it for fun. It's like buying shoes and getting socks for free."
Fu Yunge and Fu Yunge's eyes immediately turned full of resentment. The leader knew his temper well, so he naturally didn't take it seriously. He laughed twice and nodded kindly to the two of them.
"Master, it's time for martial arts class. Disciple, can you leave your seat and go to practice?" Suddenly, the young man named Long Tao interrupted from the side.
Subiezhi looked outside the door. It was the hottest time in the afternoon. He couldn't help but sip his tea and said with a smile: "If you work so hard, you will become something great in the future."
The leader also smiled. He waved his sleeves and said to Long Tao: "Since there are distinguished guests coming, you can go shopping with the two young heroes. Cancel today's martial arts class for the time being."
Long Tao was still a young man after all, and he was obviously very happy to hear this. Fu Yunge and two others immediately left their seats and followed Long Tao's footsteps and walked out.
Watching them leave, Subiezhi showed a smile: "It's great to be young."
The leader shrugged lightly. He turned to look at him and said, "There are some other things. Maybe it would be more safe to discuss them with you."
"You can feel at ease when you come to me?" Subiezhi squeezed her cheeks, "I'm really touched. After all, there are not many of my friends who are as discerning as you."
Outside the main hall of Longji, young Long Tao and Fu Yunge were wandering around.
Dongfang Shiming looked at the young man in front of him with a little curiosity in his eyes.
Apparently, this Long Tao was about the same age as them, or even a little younger. At such an age, he can be recognized by the leader of Dragon Halberd. It seems that he is indeed young and promising.
The Longji Sect is on a cliff, with a stretch of mountains and rivers behind it. The buildings of Longji extend to the bottom of the mountain, and they do seem to have a commendable sect's majesty.
Long Tao took the two of them for a while and took a general look around the sect. He seemed to like talking very much. Although he seemed a bit reserved at first, he soon relaxed and kept introducing the two of them warmly.
The Longji Sect has a long history, but it is relatively mediocre and has no great achievements. The scenery inside the door was not beautiful either. Soon Long Tao began to run out of words and wanted to ramble on.
In fact, Fu Yunge and I didn't have much interest in the history and architecture of Dragon Halberd, so they only had a general understanding of it. The two of them were more concerned about the upcoming Jinji Fengjian and Long Tao.
"Have you been practicing martial arts with the master since you were a child?" Finally, Dongfang Shiming asked first.
"Ah, yes." Long Tao was slightly startled, "Actually, I am an orphan. The master adopted me and has kept me until today."
"This, that's it." Dongfang Shiming felt that he had touched someone's pain point, and showed a look of pity to express relief.
Long Tao noticed his expression. He raised his arms and smiled proudly: "It's okay, it's okay. I have never met my parents. To me, the leader is my father."
"Hmm." Dongfang Shiming nodded.
"You are also very important in his mind." Fu Yunge thought of the leader's eyes of great trust in him and said again.
Long Tao's expression was very solemn: "Yes. Now, since the leader has decided to place the hope of Dragon Halberd on me, then I can't be ashamed of my teacher, both emotionally and rationally. For this Golden Halberd Fengjian, I have been preparing for this for a long time.”
He lowered his head and looked at the palm of his hand: "Without the leader, I wouldn't be where I am today. I am a member of the Dragon Halberd, and I must hand over all my wealth and life to the sect."
Dongfang Shiming saw that his palms had thick cocoons formed by martial arts, and could feel his determination, and nodded slightly.
Fu Yunge was even more curious about where the master's confidence in him came from, and asked, "Do you seem confident about this Golden Halberd Fengjian?"
Long Tao led the two of them through a long corridor. He turned around and said seriously: "I will never let the master down."
"But..." Fu Yunge went a step further, "I'm afraid it's still difficult to do it with will alone, right?"
Dongfang Shiming tilted his head, thinking that these words were somewhat aggressive. But considering Long Tao's character, he probably wouldn't care.
As expected, Long Tao was not unhappy. He turned his head and bared his teeth, and said to Fu Yunge: "So, do you want to compete with me?"
The three of them took another step forward, and suddenly, the golden glow of the setting sun came into their eyes.
At the end of the corridor is an extremely empty sandy land.
