Chapter 65: The Target
The reason why Ji Luoluo had the idea of accepting Ye Chong as a disciple of the temple was because he had comprehended the sword intent of the Ancient Xuanyue.
People who can comprehend the primeval artistic conception are very rare, but for the temple, it is not too unusual. With their influence, they can recruit the world's most outstanding disciples, many of whom comprehend various primeval moods.
But at Ye Chong's age, when he was in this cultivation realm, there were really not many people who comprehended the primeval artistic conception. And the person who comprehended the sword intent of the Ancient Xuanyue happened to have never appeared among the disciples of the temple.
Since Ji Luoluo had the heavy responsibility of selecting disciples for the temple on this trip, he naturally took Ye Chong's qualifications in his eyes.
She quietly left the cave on the cliff wall and let Ye Chong climb the cliff alone, which was actually testing him.
Now that he had passed the test, it was only natural that Ji Luoluo announced the news in front of everyone.
In the hundreds of years of Wei Guo, there has never been a disciple who has been selected by the temple. This news is tantamount to a thunderclap, which surprised many people.
At first, when Ye Chong rolled off the white horse, there were still many people who didn't know this ragged kid.
But when Ji Luoluo said that name, all the princes and ministers shook in their hearts.
Ye Chong!
Ye Chonglou's son!
In recent times, they have been thunderous about this name.
Even King Wei was slightly stunned, and then the look on his face was not very good.
Many of the princes and ministers present were like this, just one Ye Chong was not enough for them to take it to heart, and people's impression of him was the identity of Ye Chonglou's son.
Now it's different.
If Ye Chong became a disciple of the temple, then the events of the year, what happened to his father Ye Chonglou, would not be rediscovered.
And the people who played a disgraceful role in that matter, what kind of attitude should they take to face Ye Chong, who is a disciple of the temple, again.
Or, how would Ye Chong deal with them at that time?
It wasn't until this moment that King Wei felt a hint of threat, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, staring at the young man who had become the focus of the audience for a while, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.
Similarly, Wei Yang and Wang Donglin's faces were even more ugly.
They would never have thought that not only did Ye Chong not die, but he actually won the favor of the Holy Maiden and was about to become a disciple of the temple.
If all this came true, then in the near future, when Ye Chong, who had become a disciple of the temple, had enough influence to settle his previous grievances with them, it would cause immeasurable serious consequences to them.
So a cold fire burned in their eyes, as if they wanted to use their eyes to burn Ye Chong into ashes.
At this moment, Qin Wuyue and Shen Qing'er also looked at Ye Chong, which was also extremely shocking to them, they only felt that this young man was really going to soar into the sky?
Ye Chong's face was not good-looking, especially when he felt the gazes cast from all directions, he actually had a feeling that it was difficult to ride a tiger.
He didn't like it.
Because from beginning to end, Ji Luoluo didn't tell himself, he was completely passive and called the focus of the audience.
Just like before Ji Luoluo quietly left, he had to climb the steep cliff face alone, and now, he had to face the current scene.
He was a little hesitant at first, after all, Ji Luoluo did not have the brilliance of a saint to him, but was more like she said before, a friend. And Ji Luoluo also saved his life.
But the hot or cold eyes around him reminded Ye Chong that if he didn't make a decision at this time, then there would be no chance in the future.
So he had to bite the bullet and say to Ji Luoluo, "I don't want to go to the temple. ”
His voice was also not loud, but the difference was that it fell into the ears of many people, who thought they had misheard, and their first reaction was to show a look of confusion.
Even Ji Luoluo, who was closest to Ye Chong, felt that he had heard it wrong, and couldn't help but ask again, "You...... What do you say?"
Ye Chong sighed secretly in his heart, knowing that he was afraid that he would become the target of the public again, but he still had to raise his voice slightly again and said, "I don't want to go to the temple." ”
Wow!
Like a pebble, it broke through the calm water surface and caused countless ripples. It was like a bomb, bursting in everyone's hearts, setting off a huge wave of emotions.
This time, no one doubted their ears anymore.
Shocked, puzzled, puzzled, laughing...... A variety of rich expressions appeared on everyone's faces.
Even Ji Luoluo's face couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and he looked at Ye Chong in a daze, not knowing how to pick up his words for a while.
Don't want to go to the temple?
Is there anyone in this world who doesn't want to go to the temple?
He actually refused the invitation of the Holy Maiden!
He declined the invitation to become a disciple of the temple!
Many people thought that Ye Chong was crazy because he had lost his mind, or if he didn't know what the temple meant at all.
Even Wang Donglin and Wei Yang, who were unwilling to accept the fact that Ye Chong was chosen by the Holy Maiden, including King Wei, their reaction at this moment was only shock.
Because since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the thousand-year history, there has never been a person who has refused the invitation of the temple.
Because the temple is the dream of all warriors, it is the most sacred and desirable place in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Becoming a disciple of the temple means that no matter which country or land you walk in the future, you will become a person with great appeal and great influence.
This is enough to subvert a small country like Weiguo.
But Ye Chong ...... but refused.
"Why?" Ji Luoluo took a deep breath, his beautiful face calmed down, looked at Ye Chong, and said, "Give me a reason." ”
As a saintess of the temple, she has accepted the truth since she was a child that the temple is supreme, and it is the dream of all warriors to become a disciple of the temple, and it is a great honor for the person they fancy to become the guardian of the gods.
Not only her, but the vast majority of people present also think so.
But Ye Chong is different. His attitude towards the temple has always been firm, and his attitude towards himself has never changed.
So he said, "I have my own path to follow, my own things I want to do." I can't be the guardian of the gods you call them. ”
Ye Chong's words were tactful enough, but they still aroused cynicism from many people.
"This guy has such a big mouth, I don't believe it, what can be more important than being a guardian of God!"
"At first, I just thought he was crazy, but I didn't expect that he was actually stupid, becoming a disciple of the temple is the path that a martial artist wants to take the most!"
"You can't be the guardian of God, I don't think he takes God into account at all!"
“......”
Those people finally couldn't suppress the turmoil in their hearts anymore, and you talked about it word by word.
Especially those disciples of the two academies who were jealous of Ye Chong.
Ye Chong listened to those cold words, and his eyes were unimpressed. He said in his heart, I really don't take your so-called gods in my eyes, and I won't sell myself to be the high theocracy dog.
However, he naturally did not say these words, otherwise, he would not be the focus of the field at this time, but the center of the storm. Xiang Dongting, who had been looking at him coldly, might kill him on the spot.
The vanity of God is both high and narrow-minded and cruel.
Even so, Ye Chong had already felt the cold gaze of the East Pavilion who came to this place.
And he is just looking at Ji Luoluo at the moment, looking at this woman who has saved herself, but has made her heart ups and downs one after another and become the target of everyone.
His gaze was resolute.
Ji Luoluo could read his gaze, and she could see that he really didn't want to go to the temple to become the guardian of the gods, and her face showed a trace of regret.
"Well, since you are so persistent, then I will not force it anymore. I just hope that you can do what you want to do and walk on the path you envisioned for yourself, as you say. ”
Fortunately, Ji Luoluo was not narrow-minded, she did not continue to embarrass Ye Chong, but her expression told everyone that she was actually not satisfied with Ye Chong's reason.
"I will stay in Weiguo for another two days, and if you regret it within these two days, you can come to me at any time. Ji Luoluo thought about it for a while, and then added this sentence.
She was thinking that if Ye Chong's refusal was due to his rebellion against him who teased him three times and twice without notifying him in advance, then these two days were enough time for Ye Chong to distinguish what a precious opportunity he had in front of him.
Ye Chong smiled and nodded, "Thank you." ”
Their conversation made the guy who had started to sneer at Ye Chong shut his mouth in amusement.
On the one hand, because Ji Luoluo valued Ye Chong, he openly refused, and actually gave him a chance. On the other hand, they were worried that if Ye Chong repented, wouldn't his cynicism fall into the hands of others? They could afford to offend Ye Chong, who refused to become a disciple of the temple, but they would never dare to offend Ye Chong, who had the opportunity to become a disciple of the temple.
People are all snobbish.
Only Xiang Dongting, the holy envoy of the temple, snorted coldly at this time.
He felt that the saint's actions were detrimental to the majesty of the temple, and he didn't have the slightest good impression of Ye Chong, who dared to refuse the saint's invitation.
It was as if his most precious thing was actually worthless in front of Ye Chong, a kid, which annoyed him.
But he could only be annoyed, because on such occasions the Holy Maiden was the only and supreme representative of the Temple, and he could not disobey it.
It wasn't until a long time later, when he faced Ye Chong again, that the surprised annoyance really broke out.
At this time, the evaluation of the two academies ended quietly after the holy woman gave a few encouraging words to the disciples of the two academies. With the mood of many people who find it difficult to calm down.
Just because of the refusal of the saint's invitation, the name Ye Chong will once again resound in Chaoge City.
