"The nine bells ring today are three important things to announce to you. ”

"The first thing is the message from the spirit talisman in the Baige Hall, your Xiao Saint Ancestor is about to leave the level. ”

"Wow~~~" As soon as Yuan Zidao's words came out, the entire hall was in an uproar.

After all, Xiao Bai has been in retreat for nearly thirty years, and many people have never seen the real head of the Sword Pool. Xiao Bai is respected as Xiao Sheng, also known as the West Sage, is the loudest name in the land of the Western Earth, he is the symbol of Jilei Mountain, and it is a permanent legend.

Those disciples who had never seen Xiao Sheng were even more excited, and even Dan Luoxia's heart was shaking and excited at the moment.

"It's great that the old man is going to be out of the customs. Several other elders above the main hall seemed to have only learned the news at this moment, and said in surprise.

"Yes, the master has sent a message from the Talisman that this retreat has reached its final moment, and it will be completed at any time. Yuan Zidao said with a smile.

"Alright, everyone, be quiet, I'm going to announce the second big thing now!"

The Thunder Light Hall suddenly fell silent, and there was no more noise.

"Today, in my capacity as the head of the Sword Pool, I announce that the ceremony of accepting disciples every twenty years has been shortened to ten years, but the age of acceptance of disciples has been changed to under twenty years old. ”

There was another uproar, and His Highness's disciples immediately talked about it.

"Senior brother, do you hear? The head of the sect said that the apprenticeship time is shortened to once every ten years, so it seems that my nephew is also expected to worship in the sect. ”

"Yes, Senior Brother, this is a great thing for our Sword Pool, the interval between recruiting disciples is shortened, and more qualified talents can be absorbed into our faction, which will be of great benefit to the development of our faction. ”

"Alas, it's a pity that the age of the apprenticeship ceremony has been changed to twenty years old, and my second brother originally planned to come to Yinjianchi to apprentice at the next apprenticeship ceremony, but it seems that it is hopeless. ”

"The age of this apprentice has been changed to twenty, and I don't know how many people in the world will cry with hatred. ”

"Isn't it......"

Yuan Zidao waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then said: "It has been nine years since the last apprenticeship ceremony, and the new rules of the apprenticeship ceremony will be implemented from next year." ”

After that, he turned his head to the fifth elder Shangguan Yun and said: "Senior Brother Yun, next year's apprenticeship ceremony happens to be your turn to preside, you have to prepare well, and you must collect all the good talents at that time, and you would rather have a shortage than an abundance." ”

"Yes, Senior Brother Chief. Shangguan Yun nodded in response.

At this time, Chen Ruyan, who had been expressionless, frowned and asked, "Second Senior Brother, the rules of the Apprentice Acceptance Ceremony sent by me have been implemented for hundreds of years, why should they be changed suddenly, is it a bit hasty to do so?"

Yuan Zidao said with a smile: "Senior sister, senior brother's move was not made hastily, the recent hexagram shows that there is a catastrophe in the world, and I can't lead the sword pool alone, so I need to prepare early." ”

Chen Ruyan's face changed when he heard this: "It's for this reason, no wonder the senior brother will decide like this, the senior brother can take precautions, it is really a great blessing for me, what does it mean to change the age of the apprentice to twenty, the senior sister is puzzled, and I ask the senior brother to solve the doubt." ”

Yuan Zidao laughed: "Senior sister, you are still so careful, everything has to be asked clearly before it can be counted, as for the age of accepting apprentices to be changed to twenty, it is because the senior brother is afraid of mixing with the spies of other factions during the apprenticeship ceremony, after all, the younger the age, the lower the likelihood, even so, we also need to strictly review the identity, so as not to be mixed into our faction by people with ulterior intentions during this special period, which will pose a threat to our faction." ”

When Chen Ruyan heard this, he suddenly nodded in realization and stopped speaking.

Yuan Zidao once again motioned for everyone to be quiet, and continued to say loudly: "Next, I announce the third thing, from today onwards, I, Yuan Zidao, will accept Ye Hao as my closed disciple. After that, he nodded his hand and motioned for Ye Hao to step forward.

The eyes of all the disciples in the Thunder Light Hall suddenly focused on Ye Hao's body, and they kept talking to each other, their faces full of envy.

Ye Hao was suddenly a little flustered, after all, he was still young, and it was the first time in his life that he was paid attention to by so many people at the same time, and his heart suddenly drummed non-stop.

Ye Hao walked to the center of the hall and bowed to the ground: "Disciple Ye Hao, meet the master, meet the elders." ”

Yuan Zidao smiled and said: "Okay, Ye Hao, there are two other disciples for the teacher, one is your senior brother Tang Yilou, who inherited the sword path of the teacher, and the other is your second senior brother who is fateless and inherited the way of yin and yang for the teacher, and now the two of them are not in the sect, and they will see each other in the future." From today on, you are the third disciple of my Yuan Zidao, and in the future, you must abide by the rules of the sect, not overstep, and always take the safety of the sect as your own responsibility, remember. ”

"The disciple obeys the teacher's orders. Ye Hao bowed again.

"Okay, get up. Now that the major event has been announced, except for a few elders and Ye Hao, the other disciples can disperse. ”

"Yes, sir. The disciples of the Thunder Light Hall then dispersed one after another, leaving only Ye Hao alone in the main hall.

"Ye Hao, you come forward. ”

Ye Hao walked in front of Yuan Zidao as he said.

Yuan Zidao pointed to the sloppy old man sitting on the left hand side with his hand, and said: "Ye Hao, this is your third uncle Jiao Wuyan, he is proficient in the art of alchemy, whatever elixir you need in the future, you can go to your third uncle." ”

"Ye Hao paid a visit to the third uncle. Ye Hao walked in front of Jiao Wuyan and bowed.

"Hmm......" The sloppy old man didn't speak, as if he didn't look at Ye Hao, but just snorted, indicating that he understood.

Yuan Zidao was afraid that Ye Hao would be embarrassed, and said, "Ye Hao, your third uncle is immersed in Dan Dao, and he has never asked about the world, and this time he also heard that I want to accept apprentices, so he came to see you, his temper has always been like this, you don't have to mind." ”

"The disciple didn't dare. ”

"Okay" Yuan Zidao pointed to Chen Ruyan on his right hand again: "This is your fourth uncle Chen Ruyan, her flying technique is the best in this sect, in the future, you have to humbly ask the fourth uncle for advice." ”

"Disciple Ye Hao, meet the fourth uncle. ”

"Good boy, get up. Chen Ruyan showed a rare smile, held up Ye Hao, looked at him carefully for a long time, and nodded incessantly.

Yuan Zidao pointed at the long-bearded old man again and said, "This is your fifth senior uncle Shangguan Yun, he is in charge of the ordinary affairs of the sect, and you will inevitably have to meet your fifth senior uncle often in the future." ”

"Disciple Ye Hao, meet the fifth uncle. Ye Hao hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Excuse me, excuse me. Ye Hao, you are already a disciple of my Sword Pool, and you must obey the arrangements of the sect in the future, and you must not trespass, understand?" Shangguan Yun said solemnly.

Ye Hao is at the disposal of his uncle at any time. ”

Yuan Zidao once again pointed to the red-faced old man and the red-eyed old man sitting below, and said, "These two are your sixth senior uncle Guan Changdong and seventh senior uncle Chu Mad, and the crisis in your Lin family village this time was resolved by the two of them. ”

When Ye Hao heard this, he was excited in his heart, and immediately knelt on the ground and thanked the two: "Disciple, thank you two uncles for solving problems for my Linjia Village, please accept the disciple's worship." ”

Guan Changdong laughed: "Ye Hao, if you didn't risk your life to lure Jianchi to report the news, we wouldn't know about it, the crisis in Linjia Village was really resolved by yourself, we just raised our hands." ”

Chu Madness also said: "It is the purpose of our faction to hoe the strong and help the weak, not to mention that this matter involves the Demon Sect, we will not sit idly by, and you don't have to take it to heart." ”

Ye Hao didn't get up, he still knelt on the ground and said: "Uncle Shi, having said that, but without the help of the two of you, Linjia Village would have ceased to exist. ”

Guan Changdong and Chu Crazy listened to it and nodded with a smile.

Ye Hao raised his head and asked, "I don't know if the two uncles have seen my mother, she ...... Are you okay?"

"This ......" Chu Mad and Guan Changdong had not actually seen Ye Rou, and Guan Changdong heard the news of Ye Rou's death from Lin Long's mouth, but he didn't know whether it was true or not, and he didn't dare to assert it, at that time, it was also to let Ye Hao stay on the mountain with peace of mind, so he said that he had seen it, at this time Ye Hao asked, and the two were speechless for a while.

Guan Changdong secretly thought that if this son wanted to stay in the Sword Drawing Pool with peace of mind, he couldn't tell the truth, so he said: "You can relax, everything is fine with your mother, she wants you to cultivate in the Sword Drawing Pool with peace of mind, don't worry about her too much, Patriarch Lin Deshou will take good care of your mother." ”

"Then the disciple is relieved, thank you Sixth Uncle. Ye Hao was happy in his heart, what he was most concerned about at this time was the situation in Linjia Village and the safety of his mother, knowing that his mother was fine, his heart suddenly felt a lot more steady.

"It doesn't matter. Ye Hao, your master is not only the head of our sword pool, but also the most admired person in our sect, he can accept you as an apprentice, it is the greatest creation in your life, you need to cultivate hard, don't let down your master's good intentions. ”

"The disciple understands and obeys the teachings of his uncle. ”

Guan Changdong nodded, stopped talking, and finally thought about it and gave up, and said no more.

Yuan Zidao saw that Ye Hao was young, but he spoke and acted decently, and he was also very happy in his heart, and said with satisfaction: "Ye Hao, your master Bo Moxiao and Ninth Master Uncle Xiao Xiao are in retreat at the moment, and they can't meet you, and when they come out of the customs in the future, you will naturally see you." Okay, you go, I have something to discuss with your uncles. ”

"Yes, the disciple will retire for the time being. Ye Hao got up and left after bidding farewell to Yuan Zidao and the others.

After Ye Hao walked out of the Thunder Immortal Palace, Yuan Zidao said, "Senior brother and sister, what do you think of this son?"

Chen Ruyan replied: "This kid has clear eyebrows, a simple and kind personality, and can go up the mountain to ask for help regardless of his safety, which shows that he has a resolute and resolute personality, and he is indeed a good boy. ”

Shangguan Yun shook his head and said: "I think that he doesn't speak and act like a child of the same age, and his precocious mind is not necessarily a good thing, whether he is sincere or hypocritical and wronged, I can't judge it at the moment." Seeing that everything is fine at this time, how can you predict whether there will be dissenting thoughts in the future...... Senior brother, you have to teach strictly, and always be on guard. ”

When Yuan Zidao heard this, he smiled but did not answer.

"Sixth Senior Brother, Seventh Senior Brother, what do you think?"

Guan Changdong stroked his long beard and said: "I think this kid has a pure heart, if he is guided well, he will definitely become a pillar of talent like Yilou in the future." ”

Chu Mad also said: "I don't know what the future holds, but now I think this kid is good, maybe he can really inherit the mantle of the second senior brother." ”

"Third Senior Brother, what do you see?" Yuan Zidao asked again.

"Hmph...... I see, I think you're just asking too much. Jiao Wuyan said dissatisfiedly.

"Oh, why did you say that?"

Jiao Wuyan closed his eyes and said: "Hmph, our sword pool is a famous faction, and we still grind and chirp when we accept a disciple, and guess at will that it is my generation, although my eyes are not good, but my heart is very clear, and I am the most accurate in recognizing people, Ye Hao is a good boy, since you accept it, teach it well, don't accept it if you don't want to teach it well." ”

These words were so straightforward that Shangguan Yun seemed to hear the sound outside the strings, and immediately looked embarrassed.

Yuan Zidao laughed out loud when he heard this: "Third junior brother, what you said has reached my heart, that's right, since we accept him into the sword pool, we must treat each other with sincerity and teach seriously, even if he has a bad heart, we must be sincerely moved." I personally accepted him as a disciple, just because I want to be by his side all the time, to teach him face-to-face, to guide him seriously, even if he is a demon, I want to make him a Buddha!"

After that, he turned his head to Shangguan Yun and said, "Fifth Senior Brother, as for what you just said, don't mention it again in the future." ”

"Yes, senior brother," Shangguan Yun said yes with a red face and bowed his head.

Guan Changdong seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked, "Senior brother in charge, the child I brought up the mountain...... What should I do?"

Yuan Zidao was silent when he heard this, and thought for a moment before saying, "Place that kid in the Thunder Punishment Cave." ”

"What...... Senior brother means to destroy it with thunder?" Guan Changdong was taken aback.

"No, I don't want to take the baby's life, it's just that this child has demon blood, and it is very likely that it is the reincarnation of the demon ancestor, this matter is very important, and I have to make this decision, there are ninety-nine seals outside the thunder punishment cave, even if the demon ancestor wakes up one day, it can't be easily broken, so she will be placed in the thunder punishment cave, but you need to be kind to her, don't use the thunder punishment, and send more people to guard, and report any abnormalities at any time. ”

"Senior brother is benevolent, senior brother admires. Guan Changdong thought that Yuan Zidao was going to kill this baby, and he was worried in his heart, but when he heard this, he was relieved, after all, he had promised Lin Deshou before, and he really didn't want to hurt her life until he had to, after all, the child was brought to Jilei Mountain by himself.

"In addition, you inform the Eighth Senior Brother who is in charge of peripheral affairs, let him keep an eye on the affairs of the world, and report anything suspicious to me as soon as possible. ”

Everyone nodded yes.

"Okay, let's disperse today, although the catastrophe is coming, but the master is about to get out, maybe his old man can easily resolve this catastrophe. ”

Everyone nodded, but they couldn't help but be worried.

Ye Hao was alone, returning to Feiyan Peak along the way he came, along the way, many sect disciples pointed fingers at Ye Hao, most of them were jealous of Ye Hao's virtue and ability, and actually worshiped the head of the sect, and many disciples came to meet Ye Hao, but there were too many people, and Ye Hao didn't remember a few for a while.

At this moment, there was a burst of laughter behind him, this laughter was loud and powerful, deafening, and Ye Hao was so startled that he almost fell.

Ye Hao turned his head to look, only to see that the person who came was tall and strong, and even the purple clothes on his body were extremely tight, which looked quite ill-fitting, but when Ye Hao saw this person's face, he was surprised: "It turned out to be you!"
