The deputy owner of Aoxue Villa is a middle-aged man in his forties, named Ao Tianhen, who is the younger brother of the owner of the Villa, Ao Wuji.
This man is tall, with a short beard and thick eyebrows. Judging from his face, he is definitely a rugged man.
Of course, this is just looking at the face.
Whether it is his behavior, actions, or words, he has a refined temperament that is completely inconsistent with his appearance.
No one could imagine that such a middle-aged man with a rough face could be so Confucian.
Obviously, it was influenced by the founder of Aojian Villa, Ancestor Aoxue.
In fact, it is more than just Aotianhen.
Almost all the disciples in Aoxue Villa are like this.
There were more than thirty people at the reception dinner.
According to what Ao Tianhen said, the thirty disciples who attended the dinner were the candidates to go to Hanling Valley this time.
Among the thirty people, only five are inner disciples, and the others are inner disciples except Gu Chen.
As for Gu Chen, as a newcomer to Aoxue Villa, it can be said that he is half the protagonist of this reception banquet.
As soon as the banquet started, Gu Chen was signaled by Elder Hua to stand up and introduced himself in front of everyone: "Hello fellow seniors, I am Li Xingyun. I was originally practicing at Huanggu Academy. I was invited by Senior Brother Hanfeng, and to I have always longed for Aoxue Villa, so I chose to join Aoxue Villa!"
"From now on, I will be grateful to all of you senior brothers for your guidance in Aoxue Villa."
After saying that, Gu Chen bowed to everyone.
"Haha, what are you saying, Junior Brother Li? Now that we have joined our Aoxue Villa, we will be a family from now on. I dare not say anything else. If anyone dares to bully Junior Brother Li in the future, just tell me and I promise to make him regret it." !”
A young man stood up first, patted his chest and promised.
But soon, the young man saw the confusion on Gu Chen's face, and instantly patted his forehead: "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, Junior Brother Li, my name is Qing Luo Feng!"
"Senior Brother Qing!" Gu Chen nodded slightly.
Then others began to introduce themselves.
"I'm Lin Changrui!"
"I'm at Baiyang Ridge!"
"The leeward force is sharp!"
…
Soon, Gu Chen wrote down the names of these people one by one.
Especially the five core disciples, the auras of these five people are extremely powerful.
Those with the lowest cultivation level are probably at the peak of the ninth level of the Xuan Realm.
The strongest one was Qingluo Feng, who was the first to speak. His strength definitely reached the Saint level or above.
The aura on his body was so strong that even Gu Chen felt an extremely strong sense of oppression.
And this is just the aura that was revealed inadvertently when he just spoke. It is not difficult to imagine how strong it is.
The banquet was in progress, and no one questioned Gu Chen's identity as Li Xingyun.
Naturally, it is impossible to doubt the person recommended by Hanfeng.
Hanfeng has now become a core disciple, and is also the direct disciple of Elder Qinghe, one of the six enshrined elders of the sect!
In time, he will definitely be a candidate for the elder of the sect!
"By the way, Junior Brother Li, I heard that you have very high attainments in the Dao of Swords, but your cultivation is only at the eighth level of the Mysterious Realm..."
After drinking for three rounds, Qing Luo Feng looked at Gu Chen. As soon as he spoke, he seemed to notice something strange.
As he squatted down, he looked at Gu Chen with some surprise: "Junior Brother Li, how come the aura I can feel on your body is only at the second level of the Mysterious Realm?"
"Could it be that I drank too much and even the induction was wrong?"
After saying that, he looked at Lin Changrui on the side: "Junior brother Lin, try sensing it."
Lin Changrui smiled and shook his head: "Junior Brother Li did not reveal his presence. Senior Brother Qing has a strange treasure on his body, so naturally he can detect it, but I cannot."
Exploring rare treasures!
When Gu Chen heard these four words, his heart shrank. He never thought that there was such a rare treasure.
However, Gu Chen had naturally thought of a way to deal with this kind of thing.
Then he smiled and said: "Senior Brother Qing is right, I am indeed only at the second level of Xuan Realm."
"Wow!"
As soon as Gu Chen said these words, there was a low voice at the Jie Feng Banquet.
The eyes of the thirty disciples present and Elder Hua all fell on Gu Chen at the same time.
Only Ao Tianhen seemed to have known about it for a long time and had no reaction.
"Second level of Xuanjing? Junior brother Li is joking, right?"
When Qingluo Feng and other disciples heard this, their eyes were full of suspicion and surprise.
Obviously, everyone does not understand this cultivation level.
The cultivation of the second level of Xuanjing is really too low for them.
Even though Gu Chen was only seventeen years old, most of the people present were over nineteen years old.
The age gap naturally represents the gap in cultivation.
However, to be able to be recruited into the inner disciples of Aoxue Villa, and to be a candidate for the core disciples, this level of cultivation is obviously not enough.
The most important thing is that the news from Han Feng had already stated that Li Xingyun’s cultivation had reached the eighth level of the Mysterious Realm!
"To be honest, my senior fellow apprentices are not as good at skills as others. When fighting with others, I was accidentally injured, which caused my realm to fall. My cultivation level has not been restored to this day..."
Gu Chen shook his head gently and sighed: "Fortunately, I am still an amateur body practitioner, so I survived by luck."
Fighting falls!
A reason that I had thought up a long time ago.
When martial arts practitioners are fighting, it will indeed happen that they are seriously injured and their cultivation level drops.
This situation will also recover as the injury improves, but if the foundation is seriously injured, it may be difficult to recover.
As for physical training...
Gu Chen didn't want to be exposed, but he had no choice. Now that others were exploring the rare treasure, he might not be able to escape their eyes.
And the most important thing is Ao Tianhen, the deputy owner of Aoxue Villa!
The other party's terrifying strength has probably reached the level of a god. I am afraid that the other party has already seen through this matter of his own body cultivation, but he just didn't say much about it.
But if Gu Chen deliberately concealed it, I'm afraid things would be even more troublesome.
Instead of doing this, it is better to take the initiative to say it.
The fact was just as Gu Chen thought. When Gu Chen revealed his identity as a physical cultivator, Ao Tianhen raised his eyelids slightly, apparently satisfied with Gu Chen's approach.
"Who is it that actually caused Junior Brother Li to be seriously injured to the point where he fell into disgrace?"
Qingluo Feng couldn't help but scolded, and his eyes instantly looked at Liu Yihua beside him.
Liu Yihua glanced at Gu Chen, and Gu Chen said directly: "This matter has nothing to do with Senior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Liu and the others were not present!"
"The name of the person who hurt me is Gu Chen. When I recover, I will definitely go to him personally to avenge him!"
"Gu Chen?"
Upon hearing this name, many people present had doubts in their eyes.
But then, someone's eyes lit up: "Is the Gu Chen you are talking about the new student of Huanggu College?"
"Huh? Senior Brother Bai actually knows about him?" The other party's answer made Gu Chen's heart tremble slightly.
I just used it as an excuse casually, but I didn't expect that someone here actually knew his name.
Misstep.
