Volume 4 Chapter 5 The One-Year Covenant
Volume 4, Chapter 5 [The Covenant of the Year]
Dou Hanshan stroked his beard and was silent after listening, judging from Wang Rui's description, although there is an exaggeration, the truth should not be too bad, after all, no fool wants to offend the Shadow Society inexplicably.
looked at the two of the Inner Gate Elders under him, so Yun Hezi, who was one of the Inner Gate Elders, coughed first, attracting everyone's attention, and asked Wang Rui: "Wang Rui, the Zhou royal family has always been friendly with our Xutian Sect, but it was invaded and divided by several major neighbors, and it was wiped out. We are not satisfied with the actions of the Jin Kingdom, the Wu Kingdom, and the Great Yan Kingdom, and we are ready to support the surviving princesses of the Zhou Kingdom to restore the country, how about it?"
Wang Rui also knows the position of his sect, the territory of Zhou produces spirit stones, there are spiritual veins, and it is not far from the Xutian Sect, which belongs to the sphere of influence. Previously, he was mainly involved in the battle of the sect, but he has always held the attitude of recovering the country.
"What the elder said is extremely true, the Zhou Kingdom has always admired my Xutian Sect, and now it is being divided by a powerful country, which is the time for my sect to show justice, but ......" Wang Rui's first few words made Yun Hezi and the others listen very comfortably, but as he came out, it suddenly made many people feel like they had swallowed flies.
Why does this kid look old-fashioned, not like a junior at all.
"But what?" Yun Hezi's expression is not very good-looking.
Wang Rui clenched his fists and said, "The elder is angry, the disciple just wants to explain two things, the princess of Zhou Guo, who is now known as Zhou Hua, is already a disciple of Dihua Villa, and she is the closed disciple of Dihua Immortal Gu, she has the body of Xuanyin, and she is the best heir of Xiangu Yin Xuangong. If I invite Zhou Hua to come out and restore the country, I don't know what Immortal Gu will think?"
"This ......" Yun Hezi suddenly understood, if he wanted to let the princess of Zhou return to the country, it would be tantamount to offending Dihua Immortal Gu, although the Xutian Sect was not necessarily afraid of a Yuanying monk, but Dihua Immortal Gu's ability was not ordinary, several disciples under the sect were serving in the four top sects, and it was at the elder level, offending her was equivalent to offending the four top sects, which was worse than offending the Shadow Society.
"In addition, the disciple returned from the battlefield of Zhou City before, and I remember that Zhou City was already a purgatory on earth at that time, and under the ravages of the Shadow Society, it is estimated that millions of mortals in the city have turned into the living dead. I got the latest news again, the three major countries have now completely blocked Zhou City, and the Xianmen forces behind it even plan to destroy it in one fell swoop and build a new city, in this situation, we propose to help the Zhou Kingdom restore the country, and it will inevitably conflict with the Xianmen forces behind the three mortal dynasties, the disciple doesn't know, in this way, will my Rui Tianzong be affected, and ask the elders for advice." Wang Rui's tone looked very respectful, but Yun Hezi heard that his beard was a little windless.
This guy, Tai Chi is really good, one move left and one move right, so that you have to retreat by yourself, but I have to admit that Wang Rui does have a point.
"Anyway, the old man is just giving advice, and everything is up to the head to decide." Yun Hezi arched his hand and pushed the choice back to Dou Hanshan, which made the elders a little unbearable, and Dou Hanshan couldn't help but touch his temples with his fingers.
At this time, another female elder stood up, giggled a few times, swept away the embarrassing atmosphere just now, and then walked up to Wang Rui and the three of them to look around, which made Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi panic, Wang Rui was not afraid, but he also felt that maybe this elder was not easy to deal with.
Elder Liuli pointed at Wang Rui and said with a satisfied smile, "How many years have you been waiting for the three of you to get started?"
"Tell the elders, it's been seven or eight years since the disciple started...... Wang Rui replied.
Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi reported one after another, both of them were the same time, but they were longer than Wang Rui, thirteen years.
"The two of them are both at the peak of the ninth layer of Qi cultivation, huh...... This girl seems to be about to build a foundation, not bad. As for you...... Hey...... It turned out to be the late stage of foundation building...... No...... No, are you already at the peak of foundation building?" Elder Liuli didn't expect that he couldn't see through Wang Rui's depth, which surprised him very much, which showed that Wang Rui was at least comparable to her cultivation.
At this time, the two elders on the left, the Daoist man with bulging temples, said angrily, "Liuli, you're right, this kid is already at the peak of foundation building, and I have a hunch that he will definitely be able to advance to the Jiedan."
"What?" This sentence immediately surprised the elders of the Heavenly Sect of the Dry Ruins including Dou Hanshan.
"Uncle Cao, is this true?" Dou Hanshan couldn't help but ask.
The Taoist suddenly looked dissatisfied, glared at Dou Hanshan, and said, "What, you are the head, can I question Cao Wuhen's words?"
"Uncle, what is this ......" Dou Hanshan was speechless, but fortunately, the female Jiedan monk next to him pulled Cao Wuhen, which made this grumpy old man restrain himself.
However, then something even more surprising happened, Cao Wuhen asked Wang Rui directly: "Wang Rui, does the exercises you are cultivating belong to the thunder system?"
"That's right, Uncle Taishi, the disciple is cultivating the Thunder System Exercises." Wang Rui's words suddenly made Cao Wuhen even more satisfied.
"Is there an apprentice?" Cao Wuhen continued to ask.
Wang Rui shook his head and said, "I have never apprenticed, so I taught myself to get started."
"Hmm...... Yes, yes, in that case, you will come to the Sky Thunder Bee tomorrow to find me, this is the token to open the enchantment." After speaking, he threw him a silver token, and Wang Rui caught it.
The meaning of this period is very obvious, Cao Wuhen intends to accept himself as a personal disciple, which is directly from the outer disciple to the personal disciple, compared to others, it is enough to save hundreds of years. At that time, Wang Rui struggled for more than 70 years in Yuantian Sect before he received the promise of an outer sect elder and promised to be promoted to an outer disciple when he was 100 years old.
Unexpectedly, in the Xutian Sect, he crossed over to the disciple of his own lineage, and it was simply a step to the sky. Of course, there will definitely be some temptation tomorrow, but Wang Rui is confident that he will pass.
Looking behind them, Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi were extremely envious, and at the same time showed sentimentality, Wang Rui quickly understood the intentions of the two.
"Uncle Taishi, the two sworn brothers and sisters of the disciple are not bad in talent, although the foundation has not yet been built, the disciple is confident that in a year, he will help the two of them build the foundation, and then rush to the Heavenly Thunder Bee to listen to the teachings of the Taishi Uncle, and implore the Taishi Bo to approve it." Wang Rui solemnly knelt down on one knee to greet him, and Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi behind him immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted.
Suddenly, many elders present, including the head Dou Hanshan, really saw Wang Rui's demeanor. In the case of Elder Cao Wuhen clearly expressing that he wanted to accept him as a personal disciple, he still refused to give up his fellow disciples and sworn brothers and sisters, this kind of affection is rare in the cultivation world, and it is also precious.
Cao Wuhen glanced at Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi, but he was not interested, because the exercises they practiced had nothing to do with him.
"Well, then we will make a one-year appointment, and the old man will wait for you in the Sky Thunder Bee." After Cao Wuhen finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to other mundane things, flicked the cuffs of his robe, and stepped out in a chic step, and suddenly a thunderclap sounded, and the person had disappeared, leaving only the laughter of the urn, which echoed for a long time.
The original caustic inquiries about Wang Rui and the three disappeared after Cao Wuhen revealed that he wanted to accept Wang Rui as his personal disciple.
