Chapter 53 Core Elders
The person who came was a core elder, who had worked hard to accept Wang Maocai as an apprentice, and he also attached great importance to this apprentice, because his meridians were heavenly veins.
Due to the shattering of Wang Maocai's badge, the soul mark on it will inform the elders as soon as possible, this person is Wang Maocai's master, found here through his soul mark, trying to avenge his disciple, when he saw the corpse on the martial arts platform, he instantly knew the cause of death, so he gave up the idea of revenge, and could only collect the body for his proud disciple, this is after all a disciple of Tianmai, and he was finally found by him, so he died, he also felt deeply sorry, and at the same time felt angry at the person who killed Wang Maocai.
"I've seen Senior Brother Deng," the elder who watched clasped his fists and saluted to the visitor, because they were both elders and had met several times at the elders' meeting, so they basically knew him, and knew that his name was Deng Mingxuan, and the cultivation of the person who came was extremely high.
Lu Qi looked at the person who came, and couldn't see through his cultivation, but from the analysis of his dress, this person must be a person with a status and dignity, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "Disciple greets the elder,"
Although the rule of the Xiuzhen Academy is that you must bow when you see the dean, as for seeing the elder, it doesn't matter if you bow or not, it only depends on your mood, and Lu Qi was polite for the first time, and the elder who wanted to be angry was slightly extinguished the anger in his heart.
Deng Mingxuan looked at Lu Qi carefully, and found that his skin was slightly dark, his facial features were quite exquisite, and his cultivation could only be regarded as average, but his identity was too ordinary, and he was just an outer disciple, which instantly increased his contempt for him, but then he thought that he was able to kill Wang Maocai in the late stage of foundation building by virtue of his cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, presumably this person must have some clever means and could not be treated as an ordinary outer disciple.
"Did you kill Wang Maocai?" from the same academy, why did you want to kill the killer?" Deng Gaozhuo asked.
"The disciple has nothing to do with Wang Maocai, it is entirely because I am with my fellow villagers and brothers to catch up with the past, but it has caused his dissatisfaction, so as to challenge me, and it is still a battle of life and death, because we are in the same realm, according to the rules, I can not refuse, I can only accept it unconditionally; Lu Qi looked at the unfathomable elder on the opposite side and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Is that really the case?" Deng Mingxuan asked, looking at the crowd watching.
The disciples were too frightened to speak, only the elder in the audience replied: "But this is the case, the fight between these two people, I also know a little bit about it, they are indeed caused by some verbal disputes, that core disciple is a little aggressive, this outer disciple is just out of self-preservation." He saw that this outer disciple had already won, and he would definitely speak for the person who won, besides, that person was already a dead man, so he could say whatever he wanted, after all, he was the only elder in the field who watched, and his cultivation was in the Jindan period, which was the highest in the field.
Lu Qi cast a grateful look at this elder, and saw that he was wearing a gray waist tag around his waist, knowing that he must be an elder of the outer sect, and his identity and cultivation were too different from that Deng Mingxuan, but he dared to stand up and say a fair word, and he could be regarded as a warm-hearted person;
When Deng Mingxuan heard such an answer, he didn't say anything, and with a slight move of his hand, the 'Jade Toad Rusty Cloud Pen' on the martial arts platform flew over and was put into the storage ring. turned to Lu Qi coldly and said: "Since it is a life-and-death fight, I will not embarrass you, but Wang Mao is my most proud disciple, and he died in your hands today, and the losses caused by this must be compensated by you." โ
When Xia Ying heard such a ridiculous request, she immediately said angrily in her heart, "Isn't this vexatious, if your disciple dies, let Senior Brother Lu compensate, how can you compensate? โ
Lu Qi was also asked by this strange reason, and was speechless for a moment, but he didn't dare to turn his face, the opposite was the core elder, and his cultivation should be at least above the Jindan period, it was a terrifying existence, and if he wanted to kill him, he raised his hand, although the academy stipulated that there was no infighting, but he was an elder, and his cultivation was extremely high, if he killed himself, the dean would only give him some slight punishment, prevaricating in the past, and he was really going to lose his life, so it was better to be patient for the time being.
Thinking of this, Lu Qi replied with a helpless expression on his face: "Senior...... How do you want your disciples to compensate?"
After all, this is a normal death in a life-and-death battle, and Deng Mingxuan is not good at embarrassing Lu Qi in person, but with his identity, it is impossible to forget it today, so he wants to take revenge on Lu Qi.
He originally wanted to accept Lu Qi as a disciple, but just now he used Tianmu to secretly check Lu Qi's meridians, but they were miscellaneous veins, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed in his heart, but then he thought again, even if it is a miscellaneous vein, I will accept you, disgust you, and avenge today's bereavement.
"You killed my disciple, then you can only fill this vacancy, are you willing to be my disciple? This is a core disciple, much more comfortable than your outer disciple, this is also an opportunity for you, although I know that you are a miscellaneous line, but if there is a letter of recommendation from me, you will be promoted to a core disciple by exception, which is a step to the sky for you," Deng Mingxuan threw out an olive branch and said step by step.
Deng Mingxuan said these temptations, and seeing that he was still hesitating, he couldn't help but ask, "This disciple, what's your name?"
"The disciple's name is Lu Qi," After Lu Qi answered, he was still thinking about whether to enter the core disciple academy and be a disciple of Deng Mingxuan, after all, happiness came too suddenly, although it had always been his dream to leave the outer gate, but he was still a little uneasy, afraid that this would be a trap, if he became a core disciple, and it was difficult to move, it was better not to go for the time being, besides, I heard that the core disciple courtyard was Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and when he got there, his cultivation would be deeply trampled underfoot; ๏ผ
After Deng Mingxuan heard this name, his face instantly froze, he couldn't imagine that such a mediocre disciple was Lu Qi, he also knew a little about some of the things that happened to Lu Qi these days, and he also knew that the dean still valued this child very much, and now he had accepted him as a disciple, which was really a very correct thing, mainly because after receiving Lu Qi, the dean would follow him to check, so it was indirectly pleasing the dean; every time Deng Mingxuan thought of the dean, his face would show a trace of awe, and he deeply admired his unfathomable cultivation and dominating the world from the bottom of his heartใ
