"From now on, you are a member of the Burning Fire Sect."
The children who saw this from the side were surprised, they did not expect that lady to agree, but then they only ignored Abel, for them, his decision was the most foolish he could make.
Even the crowd of villagers who had not yet retreated were shocked, for them, the lightning sword sect's offer was the best as they had also observed that Abel was a swordsman with an affinity for thunder, so without much thought, it should be the ideal sect for him.
This caused many who cheered Abel and cheered for him to undergo a great 180 ° turn in their attitude, although they had not heard much about the Burning Blood sect, they did know that, in terms of martial skill, they were at the end, being Outgunned by the other two sects, so in the future, it was more likely that both Drake and Lyan would end up surpassing him, all because he wasted a good opportunity.
"I didn't think that boy was that blind, forget it, when I see that in a couple of years both Drake and Lyan have gotten over him, he will regret his decision today."
"Yes, let's go guys, there is nothing more to see here, although today we lost a genius, with the support of the two sects towards Lyan and Drake, in a couple of years we will have 2 great cultivators who left our village."
"*Sigh*, why did Abel make that decision? Even the envoy told him that he would not receive any special treatment, but still he wanted to join that sect..."
"Come sister, let's go, there is nothing more to see here."
As the crowd left dejectedly, the village chief also gave Abel a meaningful look, before retreating too, in his mind, Abel's decision could not have been more foolish, besides from what he saw of Fred, it seemed that they were going to support their son to recover as quickly as possible.
"If things continue like this, it will be quite easy for my son to free himself from the mental shadow that Abel caused him, after all, the burning fire sect is more dedicated to creating pills and artifacts than to polishing their martial strength."
Thinking this far, the village chief exhibited a subtle smile of happiness as he headed to the mansion to take care of his son.
Likewise, Clark and Fred had grim expressions on their faces, clearly they did not expect this turn of events, although they were upset by the fact that the lady of the Burning Blood sect in the end managed to obtain a new disciple, on top of it a genius at it, they couldn't do anything but snort angrily, as it was Abel who requested to join that sect.
Thinking up to this point, both envoys said nothing more and withdrew with the children, each one, on the one hand, thus leaving the lady and Abel alone, who, seeing that they had all left, said to Abel:
"I have something to discuss with you, do you know a place to talk quietly without interruptions?"
Hearing this, Abel was shocked, but it didn't take long for him to reply:
"Let's go to my house then, it is a few minutes from here, it is also in a fairly quiet and remote area, so no one should bother us."
Hearing this, the lady just nodded and she gestured for Abel to lead the way.
As they walked to Abel's hut in the eastern part of the village, Abel couldn't help but think:
"I wonder what she wants to discuss with me, although well, she comes in quite handy, after all she also wanted to ask her a few questions about the Burning Blood sect."
Although Abel had decided to join the Burning Blood Sect because he was interested in becoming a Forgemaster, he still did not know the exact details of this sect, since unlike the Azure Cloud Sect or the Lightning Sword Sect, the village did not have much information. about its internal functioning.
Thus, while Abel was choosing his questions properly, they soon arrived at the cabin in which Abel had lived these weeks.
The lady took one look at her, which made her frown, before looking back at Abel, but she decided still to say nothing and wait to enter her.
Abel didn't notice this, as he walked to the door and opened it, then, with a wave of her hand, he motioned for her to come in.
Upon entering, the lady frowned again, in addition to some basic things that Abel had brought from the village, the hut was still empty, it did not seem like the place where a child should live.
Abel approached the small room he had created and motioned for the lady to sit on one of her cushions, before saying:
"I'm going upstairs to change my clothes, for now, please wait here, it won't be long."
It was at that moment that the lady noticed that Abel's clothes were quite worn and tattered, so she nodded towards Abel as she watched him climb the stairs to the upper floor.
It should be noted that these cushions and some other things were bought by Abel on his trips to the village, at that time, he still did not know that the tests for the selection of disciples were so close, and he thought it would be good to have a couple of things already that he would live in this cabin for two more years.
Abel did not take long, he took out the last set of clothes he had presentable and changed quickly, then calmly went downstairs and sat on the other cushion in front of the lady, calmly waiting for the questions she would ask.
The lady for her part said nothing, but she took out a small bag from her waist, and with a gesture of her hand, she made a small silver sphere appear, which she placed in front of Abel.
Abel, for her part, was surprised at this, unconsciously saying:
"A storage bag."
Hearing this, the lady nodded, before saying to Abel:
"I see that you already know what a storage bag is, well that saves me from the hassle of explaining, well then, before starting, place your hand on this sphere."
Although with some curiosity, Abel did as the lady in front of him told him and placed his hand on the small sphere, immediately after, the sphere glowed with a faint white glow before numbers appeared on its surface.
The lady seeing this only sighed and put the sphere in her storage bag before turning to Abel.
"You really are only 5 years old, besides it seems that you only fulfilled them a few months ago, for a genius like you to appear around here, and even have a sword technique that reaches the upper earth level and an excellent concealment technique that even I I can't glimpse ... then tell me Abel, who are you?"
Hearing the words of the lady in front of him, Abel couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he didn't expect the lady to be able to see through him to that point, but he forced himself to calm down, as his head went into overdrive.
"Although I already knew at the time I used the art of the double sword that this would occur, I did not think that she was also aware of the divine concealment of the void technique that I use, this is a problem."
The cultivation level that everyone visualized in Abel was the first martial disciple stage, although this was clearly not true, his cultivation level was still at the fourth peak level of the body refinement stage, it's just that Abel had discovered that the second level of cultivation technique allowed not only to hide her heavenly qi, but also to simulate her cultivation stage, albeit with a certain limit.
Because of this, Abel decided to use this to his advantage, first completely hiding his cultivation level, and it was only when he faced Drake that Abel decided to pretend that he was in the martial disciple stage, since, if they realized that He was only at the 4th level of body refinement, it would be too flashy and only get him in trouble.
But Abel never thought that, even with his great concealment technique, the lady in front of him would still realize that there was something strange about him, leaving him without much choice to excuse himself.
The lady, who was staring at him, noticed that Abel seemed worried and not knowing what to answer, so she finally let out a deep sigh and said to Abel:
"If you can't answer then forget about it, I guess every cultivator has their own secrets and I'm not so mean as to force a brat like you to spit them out, but at least, I want to know how you ended up in the village, from what they told me, they brought you here, right?"
Hearing that the lady would no longer pursue the matter, Abel breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly thought of something, so soon after, with a somewhat helpless smile, he said:
"It's not that I can't tell you, but it's that my situation is quite peculiar, so much so that, if I told you about it, chances are you wouldn't believe me."
Hearing this, the lady was surprised and stared at Abel, noting that she was not lying, so, with a trace of interest in her voice, she said: "Now if you piqued my curiosity, go ahead and tell me your story."
At this, Abel just shook his head helplessly and began to tell him about how old Ben found him and rescued Couvet from the forest, and what it was he who brought him to the village, how he had lost his memory and did not remember anything about him. his past before the incident in the forest.
"Also something quite strange happened when I cultivated for the first time, in my mind, a cultivation manual appeared that in the end I ended up using to cultivate, also shortly after both the double sword technique and the concealment technique appeared, I know it sounds quite crazy. , but that's what happened to me."
While Abel made his face as piteous and sincere as possible, he finished telling the whole story, on the other hand, the lady remained silent, saying nothing, apparently reflecting on Abel's story.
Soon after, she heaved a deep sigh, before saying:
"If the one who rescued you is the same Ben I know, then there is nothing wrong with you, as for your memories, if he couldn't do much, then I won't be able to either, in the end, we go back to where we started."
Hearing this, Abel was surprised, it seemed that old Ben was more important than he thought at one point, so he was about to ask about it when the lady, guessed his thoughts, said to him: "If old Ben since you know him he didn't tell you anything, he did it for something, so, at least on my part, I won't say anything more about him."
Although apparently the lady didn't say anything else, Abel noticed that when he mentioned old Ben, some respect could be heard in her voice, surprising him quite a bit.
"It seems that that old man who saved me is more than he seems..., *sigh*, although it makes sense, only the map that he left me is quite detailed, it may not even be sold in the cities as I thought at first."
As Abel pondered this, the lady's voice brought him out of his thoughts.
"Anyway, now that that matter is partially resolved, now comes the matter of your joining the Burning Blood sect."
Hearing this, Abel immediately became serious, paying attention to every word the lady was about to say.
