Chapter 327: Heading to the Dao Sect
"Can we start choosing a sect now, Brother Lin Yan?" Liu Tong said with a light smile.
"I recommend you join our Yuan Gate. We are the strongest sect right now. With you on board, we will surpass the superpowers!"
The representatives of other sects shook their heads upon hearing this. One of them said, "Could you show some respect? Let the young ones choose for themselves. Besides, you said earlier that if he chose, we wouldn't attack each other, right?"
Hearing this, Liu Tong laughed coldly, "What does it matter if I said that? I'm just recommending our sect, not forcing them to join. Besides, he will learn much more in our sect."
An old man smiled slightly and said, "That's what you said. If you regret it, we won't take it lightly."
The speaker was the old man Lin Yan and the others had met in the Four Profound Sect.
"The Dao Sect, equal to us? What a joke," Liu Tong said disdainfully.
"Did you forget what happened years ago? One of your disciples killed three of our elders in Yuan Gate, did you forget?" said the old man.
Hearing this, Liu Tong was enraged, "How dare you mention that? If it weren't for your disciple, Yuan Gate would already be at the top of the superpowers."
The old man smiled ironically, "Top? Besides brainwashing, what else do you know how to do?"
"You..." Liu Tong glared at the Dao Sect, his hands beginning to glow with a golden light.
At that moment, a woman intervened, "That's enough, Liu Tong. You are a superpower, and you behave like this in this professional setting?"
"Don't forget that these young ones have not yet chosen a sect."
The woman speaking was the leader of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace.
Hearing this, Liu Tong snorted and said, "When I accept this young man, the Dao Sect won't be able to do anything."
The old man from the Dao Sect paid no attention to Liu Tong. Instead, he smiled and said, "Lin Yan, I suppose you don't know what the seven sects teach, right?"
Lin Yan smiled and said, "I have an idea."
"It would be strange if you didn't know. How many times have you seen 'Wudong' with Lin Yan, and you still don't know?"
Then, Lin Yan continued, "To be honest, Yuan Gate is the strongest sect in terms of power right now, but it's a pity..."
He then turned to those behind him and said, "I will let you choose a sect. Listen to what I say; you won't go wrong."
Hearing this, Lin Dong and the others nodded. After all, directly choosing a sect was something Lin Yan had secured for them.
Seeing that Lin Dong and the others agreed, Lin Yan continued, "Sukui, join the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace. Not only will it be of great help to you, but you will also be protected when you first enter."
With that, Lin Yan looked at the leader of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace and said, "I suppose you have felt the mysterious energy in this girl. I'm sure she will receive excellent education with you."
Hearing this, the leader of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace smiled and said, "Yes, I have felt that energy in this girl. I cannot thank you enough for sending her to us."
Lin Yan nodded with a smile and then led Sukui and the others to them.
Then, Lin Yan continued, "Xiaoyan, go to the Honghuang Hall. It is the most terrifying sect in terms of physical prowess among the eight great sects."
"You also have some knowledge about body forging."
Hearing Lin Yan's words, Xiaoyan nodded. She then approached the burly man and stood by his side.
Now, only Lin Yan, Lin Dong, and Little Diao were left.
At that moment, Lin Yan said, "Lin Yan, Diao, go to the Dao Sect. That is the best choice for you."
Hearing this, the old man from the Dao Sect nodded with a smile.
Just then, Liu Tong laughed loudly, "It seems Lin Yan wants to join our sect!"
But Lin Yan simply smiled and, looking at Liu Tong with an indifferent expression, said, "I have decided to join the Dao Sect."
Hearing this, the old man from the Dao Sect burst into laughter. He had thought Lin Yan would join Yuan Gate, but it turned out he just wanted to see Liu Tong make a fool of himself.
When Liu Tong heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then, incredulously, asked, "Lin Yan, what did you say? You want to join which sect?"
Lin Yan smiled slightly and responded, "I said I want to join the Dao Sect."
After that, Lin Yan approached the old man from the Dao Sect and said respectfully, "I am Lin Yan, pleased to meet you, elder."
The old man from the Dao Sect smiled broadly and responded, "Very good! Lin Yan, good name, good person, and good choice of sect."
"I am Wudao, the head of the Dao Sect. You can call me by my name."
Lin Yan smiled politely and said, "Hello, Master Wudao."
Wudao laughed again and said, "Very good, very good! You are a very polite child. Now that you have chosen a sect, let's return to the sect and I will find you a place to stay."
With that, Wudao nodded to the representatives of the other sects and prepared to take Lin Yan and the others away.
When Liu Tong saw Lin Yan heading towards the Dao Sect, he felt like his world was falling apart. He had worked hard to bring Lin Dong and the others, and now, after treating them so well, he would become a laughingstock?
The other seven great sects laughed upon hearing Lin Yan's words. Who would have thought? Yuan Gate would also have a day like this. How ridiculous.
When Liu Tong recovered from the shock, he glared furiously at the Dao Sect and asked, "Tell me, did you brainwash Lin Yan while I was busy bringing his friends?!"
Lin Yan frowned and responded coldly, "No one brainwashed me. I just didn't want to join your sect."
Hearing this, Liu Tong was furious.
"Are you mocking me? If I can't have you, then I will destroy you!"
With that, he tried to punch Lin Yan, but Wudao stepped between them. However, Lin Yan signaled with his hand for Wudao not to bother.
Then, a powerful energy began to radiate from Lin Yan's body, and he stopped Liu Tong's fist with one hand.
After blocking the blow, Lin Yan said calmly, "Judging by your aura, you have just reached the Xuan Realm. If I face you, it will be you who loses your life."
Hearing this, Liu Tong was stunned. He tried to resist but found he couldn't move his hand, which was being held by Lin Yan.
Moreover, he felt a mysterious and terrifying energy mixed in Lin Yan's aura.
He tried to throw another punch, but it was just a feint. He then took the opportunity to withdraw his other hand.
The elders of the other sects nodded in approval at Lin Yan's performance. It was truly satisfying!
After that, Wudao said, laughing, "I didn't expect this boy to be so strong! It seems we must escort him back to the sect first. See you later, elders."
Lin Yan politely bid farewell to the representatives of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace and the Honghuang Hall, saying, "I entrust my companions to you."
The two elders nodded with a smile. After all, the companions chosen by Lin Yan were undoubtedly the best for them.
Especially the elder from Honghuang Hall, who showed great interest in Xiaoyan after seeing her.
After saying goodbye, Lin Yan smiled slightly at Wudao and followed him back to the Dao Sect.
