In the Jie Jiao Patriarch's Hall, when Su Wanwan bowed respectfully three times, everyone present looked at Tang Hao again.
"Brother Xuan, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Tang Hao was still standing where he was, Ao Li's delicate face showed a hint of confusion.
"Junior Brother Xuan, what are you waiting for?"
Yun Xiao looked at Tang Hao with doubtful eyes at this time, feeling vaguely that something was wrong in his heart, and asked the same question.
On the other side, Su Wanwan and the female disciple also looked at Tang Hao curiously.
They didn't know what this senior brother who had reached the level of Xuanxian was hesitating.
"I......."
Looking at everyone's gaze, Tang Hao's mind was spinning rapidly.
To kneel or not to kneel?
After hesitating for a moment, Tang Hao finally chose not to kneel.
He can't afford to gamble.
If Master Tongtian recognizes his identity and kneels down, the image he has established for so long will completely collapse.
Let’s not talk about whether he can still be friends with the Tongtian Cult Leader in the future. If the news spreads, what will the human race think of him?
As he successfully entered the path of spiritual practice that day, Tang Hao clearly felt the changes brought about by the power of faith.
His spotless temperament is the best explanation.
There are so many practicing beings in the ancient world, but none of them has improved their temperament due to the improvement of their cultivation level.
Moreover, Tang Hao vaguely felt that the changes brought about by the power of faith were definitely not just an improvement in temperament.
Therefore, it is crucial to maintain the faith of the human race in himself. After weighing the pros and cons, Tang Hao decided to reveal his true identity.
Tang Hao sighed and opened his mouth. Just as he was about to speak, a slightly surprised voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Fellow Daoist God, why are you here?"
Tang Hao was stunned when he heard the familiar voice.
Looking around, his eyes soon settled on the mural in front of him.
I saw that the figure in the mural, which was still somewhat blurry, suddenly began to emit a faint light and became clear.
A somewhat doubtful look was projected from the mural.
Leader of Tongtian?
Tang Hao reacted and felt relieved.
As expected of a saint, he recognized himself after only a short time.
Fortunately, he didn't choose to kneel down, otherwise he would be completely embarrassed.
What Tang Hao didn't know was that he had revealed his true face to Qinghe when he was in the Kunlun Mountains.
But Tongtian didn't really leave at that time, so he happened to see Tang Hao remove the chaotic energy covering his face.
At this time, seeing Tang Hao actually staying with his disciples, Tongtian's mind was filled with doubts.
Tang Hao seemed to be the only one to notice the changes in the mural. At this time, the other four people in the hall were still focusing on Tang Hao.
Sensing that Yun Xiao's eyes were getting weirder and weirder, Tang Hao didn't think much and said directly to Tongtian in his heart: "Fellow Taoist Tongtian, because I have been outside the ancient world, I still don't know much about many things in the ancient world."
"Now I hide my identity specially and want to get a closer look at some things in the ancient world."
"What you see now is just a clone of my consciousness. I will kneel down to the portrait of fellow Taoist later and ask fellow Taoist to help protect my identity."
As he spoke, Tang Hao moved his steps and started walking towards the futon under the incense table.
Deep in Biyou Palace, when Tongtian heard Tang Hao's words, the dignified saint did not react for a moment.
Kneel before my portrait?
you?
The corners of his mouth twitched subconsciously, and Tongtian smiled bitterly and said, "Fellow Taoist God, are you trying to hurt me?"
In Tongtian's heart, Tang Hao was on the same level as himself.
This kind of existence kneels down to himself, and also to the portrait. What is it if it doesn't destroy him and reach the sky?
He didn't want to involve the great cause and effect of heaven.
In the Patriarch's Hall, Tang Hao was filled with helplessness when he heard Tongtian's words.
"There's nothing I can do. If I don't kneel down to your portrait, you, my disciple, will probably kick me out directly."
Yun Xiao looked at Tang Hao with a vaguely evil look.
After such a period of time, she finally reacted.
The guy named Xuan Fan in front of me was so dawdling. Could it be that he didn't want to kneel before the Master's portrait?
As a saint, Master, no matter how extraordinary your Xuanfan temperament is, even if you are in the Daluo realm, it is an honor to kneel down and worship Master.
At this time, Tongtian finally came to his senses and shook his head in confusion.
"Fellow Daoist God, if you don't want to expose your identity, just tell me. Why do you have to do this?"
"I have just broken through, and my realm is not yet completely stable. I cannot bear your kneeling ceremony."
After saying that, Tongtian looked to the side of Yunxiao.
Seeing his named disciple staring covetously at Tang Hao, Tongtian was inexplicably dumbfounded.
This silly girl is really shrewd.
After thinking about it with a headache, Tongtian looked at the sky and suddenly had a plan in mind.
...
In the Patriarch's Hall, Tang Hao moved slowly for a while and finally reached the futon where countless people had knelt.
Turning around to look at Yun Xiao, who was staring straight at him, Tang Hao couldn't help but click his tongue.
This Yunxiao seems to be very protective of that guy Tongtian.
"Junior Brother Xuan, you..."
Seeing that Tang Hao walked to the futon but still had no intention of saluting, Yunxia couldn't help it anymore, she frowned and was ready to scold him.
But the next moment, a sudden voice in her head interrupted her.
"Yunxiao, bring everyone in the Patriarch's Palace to me."
"Master...Master?"
Yunxiao was stunned. This was the first time she received a message from Tongtian since she was accepted by Tongtian.
"It's me. Bring me here now. Remember, don't mention it to anyone, and don't let anyone know."
Tongtian's voice was unquestionable. Yunxiao did not dare to hesitate after hearing the words, and immediately raised his hands toward the sky and said: "Yunxiao understands!"
At this time, Yunxiao didn't care that Tang Hao had not performed the apprenticeship ceremony yet. He glanced at everyone present, focused his eyes on Su Wanwan, and said: "Everyone, the master just sent me a message and asked me to take you to Biji immediately. Tour the palace.”
"Perhaps, one of you has been noticed by Master."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes moved from Tang Hao to Yun Xiao, and excitement flashed in the eyes of Ao Li and Su Wanwan at the same time.
"Let's go, don't keep Master waiting."
Because of the unquestionable tone in Tongtian's tone, Yunxiao didn't dare to delay, turned around and walked straight out of the palace.
But the next moment, a timid voice stopped her.
"Senior Sister Yun, should I go too?"
The female disciple who led Su Wanwan before looked at Yunxiao and asked weakly.
She was a disciple who joined Jiejiao a month ago. Although her cultivation had reached the realm of immortals, it took hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation to reach it.
With such a talent, Saint Tongtian should look down on him, right?
Yun Xiao paused for a moment, then continued walking out of the hall the next moment.
"Master said that everyone in the Patriarch's Palace is going, so of course you are going too."
While walking, Yun Xiao sighed inwardly that Master's mind was still so broad.
Since the message has been transmitted to her, it proves that the master is already aware of the situation in the Patriarch's Palace, and it is natural that Tang Hao also knows about Tang Hao's failure to salute.
Yun Xiao thought Tong Tian didn't care about these etiquettes, but he didn't know that his master was exchanging messages with Tang Hao at this time.
"Fellow Daoist God, where did you go the last time we said goodbye?"
"Why can't I contact you?"
In the Biyou Palace, Tongtian stood up from the futon, and his breath instantly converged.
As he walked towards the outside of the Taoist temple, he asked with some doubts.
Because there is a trace of cause and effect, it stands to reason that he can contact Tang Hao at any time.
But in the past two months, he has tried several times, but the sound he sent out was like a fish entering the sea, without getting any response.
Outside the Patriarch's Hall, Tang Hao followed everyone with his hands behind his back. The calmness on his face was in sharp contrast to the excitement of everyone.
Hearing Tongtian's words, he replied directly without thinking: "I didn't go anywhere, I just retreated for a while."
Retreat?
After hearing Tang Hao's words, Tongtian raised his head, and the next moment he saw the crowd of people rising into the sky outside the Patriarch's Hall.
Looking at Tang Hao who was following the crowd leisurely, he suddenly smiled and said, "Fellow Taoist God is really low-key."
"Even if you want to hide, you still have to reach the Taiyi realm, right?"
"The realm of Xuanxian is somewhat unworthy of your temperament."
Tang Hao's current cultivation level is Xuanxian, but Tongtian knows that this is just a disguise.
When Tang Hao heard Tong Tian's words, the corner of his mouth twitched calmly.
Good guy, isn’t the Xuanxian realm worthy of my temperament?
You must know that your true cultivation level has just reached the stage of refining energy!
