After Chen Shaotian helped Su Meixian wash her body, the two put on their clothes again and prepared to walk to the meeting hall at the mountain gate. Before leaving the practice room, Chen Shaotian whispered in Mei's ear, "I'll continue to fuck you when I come back." Hearing this, Mei's face blushed and she nodded gently.
"Oh, Master's Wife, no matter who asks me, I will say that my cultivation level was improved by Master's help. Please help me smooth things over." Although he had said it many times, Master's Wife had completely surrendered to him at this moment, but he still told her with some worry, "Don't worry, Master's Wife knows what to say." Su Meixian certainly knew that her lover must have a physical problem. He couldn't break through for so many years, but he broke through after fucking her once, and broke through to the sixth level. Not only that, he also broke through a major level with her.
In order to avoid suspicion, the two returned to their respective rooms and then went to the meeting hall of the meeting peak.
The conference hall is unusually large, with 72 chairs forming the conference chair. 70 of the 72 chairs are arranged in two rows in a circle around the two seats in the middle.
The 70 seats represent the masters of the other 35 peaks, as well as the previous masters and the current members of the Grand Elders, in addition to the headmaster.
The two seats in the middle represent the head of the sect and the head of the supreme elders.
The 72 seats are located in the most prominent position of the meeting hall, and there is a sound amplification stone next to each seat to ensure that other disciples can hear the content of the meeting.
Opposite the chairman's seat, there were several rows of small stools for the elders of each peak to use, while the disciples could only stand to attend the meeting.
The Thirty-Six Peaks Conference is a very important conference in Tianjian Mountain. It is held only once every many years. In most cases, it is held for the future development of the sect. But this time is different.
After all the chairpersons arrived, the meeting began, and the current head's seat was left vacant.
Su Meixian stood behind the headmaster's seat. Although she was the headmaster's wife, she was not qualified to sit above the headmaster now that the headmaster was away.
"My fellow disciples, I believe you are all very clear about the purpose of today's meeting, so I won't keep you in suspense. There are two purposes for our meeting today. One is to mourn for Sect Leader Lin Yize, and the other is to elect a new Sect Leader. The sect cannot be without a leader for a day." Ling Fengyun, the current head of the Supreme Elders, who was sitting in the middle, spoke. At this moment, he had no expression on his face and stroked his beard.
The supreme elders present had their own thoughts in mind.
Lin Xuan, Lin Yizhe's grandfather, lowered his head and thought to himself, "What a Ling Fengyun, Yizhe just died, and he is so anxious to fight for the position of the head. Humph, our Tianjian Mountain Lin family will never let you succeed." Zhang Xuan, Lin Yizhe's teacher, also lowered his head and thought, "My disciple's death was weird. Although he has many enemies, they will never treat a corpse like this... But it's okay. When Zhe'er was here, I had more concerns. Now that you are dead, your beautiful wife, hahahaha." The peak masters were secretly harboring evil intentions, and many of them coveted the position of the head.
Each of their eyes seemed to be shining brightly.
Although the head of the sect has no real power, the treatment is absolutely generous. Not to mention the training resources, he can also ask for benefits from the group of supreme elders in secret. It is a lucrative job. What's more, the head of the sect holds the right to vote on the sect's major events. This vote also has many benefits for the supreme elders behind them.
"Everything will be arranged by Elder Ling." At this time, an old man in a green robe expressed his opinion. This old man was thin, had a hooked nose, and his eyes were a bit cold.
"Everything will be subject to the arrangements of the Grand Elders." Several Grand Elders or Peak Masters expressed their opinions.
Just when Ling Fengyun was about to smile, a voice of "wait a minute" rang out in everyone's ears.
The speaker was Lin Xuan.
"I have something to say. Yi Zhe has just met with an accident, and the selection of a leader is a big deal. I think we should discuss it later. But today, we should first mourn for Yi Zhe, and the key is to gather the strength of the sect to find the murderer."
"Elder Lin's words are very reasonable." Zhang Xuan, who was watching from the side, heard Lin Xuan's statement and quickly agreed, regardless of what Lin Xuan said.
He had received great favors from the Lin family of Tianjian Mountain, which gave him his current cultivation and status. The deceased Lin Yizhe was his disciple, so he had long been tied to the Lin family.
"Yes, we clearly agreed to hold a meeting of thirty-six peaks the day after tomorrow to mourn the headmaster. Holding it in advance today is already an exception. Besides, according to the ancient law, if the headmaster leaves unexpectedly, the successor should be the deputy head of the peak where the headmaster is located. It is impossible to change something that has already been settled." Among the great elders, a man who looked like a young man spoke up.
He doesn't care about any party disputes or conflicts of interest. He is the law enforcement elder of the law enforcement hall who is in charge of and supervises the implementation of the sect's rules. He is upright and unyielding, and would rather break than bend. He is very rigid.
Lin Xuan, who was standing by, narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.
Who is the deputy leader of Jianshen Peak?
Su Meixian, although she is a married woman from Xuanjian Peak, she has no relationship with Xuanjian Peak at all. She still holds the title of the deputy peak master of Jianshen Peak in name, and she is also my granddaughter-in-law. Isn't she still "my family"? Then I can do whatever I want.
Zhang Xuan, who was standing by, bowed his head and said nothing. What? Let her be the head of the sect? Then how can I do it in the future?
Although the headmaster has no real power, if this matter is exposed, not only will I be accused of bullying the headmaster, but I may also become enemies with the Lin family... Damn it, someone please say something... Don't let her take the position.
Ling Fengyun calmly said, "Indeed, according to the sect rules, Meixian should take over the position of the sect leader. But she is a woman, how can a woman be the sect leader of Tianjian Mountain? This seems to be against the ancient rules, right?"
"What's against the ancient rules? I remember there was no example of a woman being the head of a sect before. May I ask which rule in the sect rules states that a woman cannot be the head of a sect? Elder Ling, please tell me," Lin Xuan argued in his heart, "Humph, Ling Fengyun, Ling Fengyun, I don't think you can beat me in this matter. With Elder Liu, this old and rigid man here, the position of the head of the sect still belongs to my Lin family, hahahaha."
"May I ask what the elders and peak masters think of this matter?" Ling Fengyun immediately sought support from his allies in an attempt to change the situation.
"What do you mean by how you look at it? Why do you still worry about something that is clearly stipulated in the sect rules? Don't you think so, Elder Liu?" Although Elder Liu is not the head of the Supreme Elders, he is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall of all generations because he is the supervisor and protector of the sect. His cultivation is the "highest" among the elders of the same generation and is superior to other elders.
Lin Xuan's move to bring up Elder Liu at this time was a brilliant one. He even thought that this old man was too rigid and would definitely push Su Meixian to the top.
"Well, both of you have your own reasons. I have a compromise here, I wonder if you can accept it?" Although he strongly advocated the ancient method, he was not a person who did not know how to adapt. The two factions were fighting fiercely at the moment. If he insisted on pushing Su Meixian to the top, it would inevitably lead to dissatisfaction from Ling Fengyun's faction. The power of Ling Fengyun's faction was indeed not to be underestimated. If his faction really started to make trouble, it would definitely do more harm than good to the sect, but he could not completely ignore the sect rules.
So I came up with a compromise idea.
"Please speak." Lin Xuan had already guessed what Elder Liu meant by a compromise. Although he was a little unwilling, the position of the head of the sect was still in his own hands, so he silently accepted it. "It is true that there has never been an example of a woman succeeding to the throne in the sect, but the sect rules cannot be broken. I have thought of a compromise, that is, let Deputy Peak Master Su temporarily take over the position of the head of the sect, and we will re-select the head of the sect in two or three years. As for the head of the sect, it is natural to implement the training system in full accordance with the ancient method. The winner will succeed the head of the sect. What do you think?" Elder Liu said slowly.
"What Elder Liu said makes a lot of sense. Lin Xuan is willing to accept it." As soon as Elder Liu finished speaking, Liu Xuan interrupted.
"It's the only way." Humph, it's just a two-year buffer period. Who of the remaining members of your Lin family's main line can pass the training?
We in the Ling family have several good candidates. We will let you enjoy yourself for two years. After two years, the name of Tianjian Mountain will be Ling.
This was also the main purpose of his convening the Thirty-Six Peaks Conference today. He knew that the main line of the Lin family had always been passed down from one generation to another, and they did not trust the people of the branch bloodline. Now the main lineage heir was Lin Ke'er, a little girl with only the fourth level of cultivation, which was not enough evidence.
I wanted to take the position of the head of the sect today and mobilize all my forces to force him to take the position, but I didn't expect that this old and rigid man would actually let a widow take the position.
snort.
Should we inform the ancestors to abolish the power of the law enforcement lineage and weaken their strength?
Ling Fengyun thought to himself.
Seeing this, the other supreme elders, peak masters and others could only accept the fact before them.
Zhang Chu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "It's only two years. Humph, after two years, I don't think you can escape from my grasp. When you lose your position as acting head, I don't believe that the Lin family will lose me for a widow." He was inexplicably excited at this moment. Although he was a little sad when he learned about the death of his apprentice Lin Yizhe, the surprise outweighed the sadness.
A filial but powerless disciple of a master is not as good as a beautiful lady.
Hehe, Su Meixian, Su Meixian, I'll see how you can escape from my grasp.
Zhang Chu continued to think in his mind, "Okay, now that everything has been settled, please let the headmaster take the position." Elder Liu pointed at Su Meixian's seat and towards the headmaster's seat.
Su Meixian was speechless. These big shots did not even ask for her opinion in their competition. She did not want to be a leader at all. It would be fine if she had power, but being a puppet was meaningless... But she had no right to speak, so she could only slowly sit on the leader's seat.
"Let's start the mourning ceremony for the outgoing head. Everyone stand up." Ling Fengyun stood up first, followed by the supreme elders, peak masters, and ordinary elders.
The disciples had never sat down, let alone stood up and just said.
"Next, we will observe a moment of silence to bid farewell to the former leader." Ling Fengyun was the first to bow his head, and everyone followed suit.
When everyone lowered their heads, Ling Fengyun revealed a faint smile.
"I don't know who killed you, but you died a good death. If you hadn't died, our Ling family would never be able to take over. Hahahaha, God help our Ling family. You can go with peace of mind. I will arrange for your daughter to marry into our Ling family. Hahaha, I will control your Lin family forever..."
He was extremely excited at this moment. To be more precise, he was so excited the moment he received the news of Lin Yize's death.
On the other side, "Go without worry, hahahaha, I will take good care of your wife. Your daughter seems to be very cute, we will pick them together when the time comes, hahahaha." Zhang Chu continued to YY, "You dead ghost, you left such a big mess after your death, and you still need me to help you take over, ah... Go without worry, I have found happiness. I am your dead ghost's apprentice. Don't reincarnate into the wrong person in the next life, don't reincarnate into an impotent and dead silkworm baby again." This is what Su Meixian thought in her heart.
"Master, even though you didn't treat me well when you were alive, and even hunted down my real master in an attempt to wipe out our Yin Yang Holy Sect, I won't let you down. Go with peace of mind. I will take good care of your wife and sisters. Hahahahahahaha"
Chen Shaotian was happy in his heart, but his face was filled with grief and anger, and he even squeezed out a few tears... He could really switch on and off the actor mode at will.
"Please raise your heads, the mourning is over. Today's Thirty-Six Peaks Meeting ends here. Please leave now."
"By the way, the disciples and the acting head of Jianshen Peak will stay for now. I have something to ask the great elder Lin Xuan," Ling Fengyun said.
After the departure of all the peak masters, supreme elders and disciples, there were only less than 30 people from the Sword God Peak and two supreme elders left.
Lin Xuan was the first to ask, "Meixian, what happened? Who killed Yizhe? What did Yizhe do when he went out? Do you know?"
"Reporting to Elder Lin, I don't know at this moment, and I'm even a little confused. Yi Zhe came back yesterday, but who knew he would be found dead this afternoon? Uh-huh, what are we, an orphan and a widow, going to do?" Jiang is indeed old and experienced, and the master's wife's acting skills are flawless.
Everyone was speechless. How come you don't even know what your husband is doing outside... You two are usually so loving... Is this what it means to be a husband-disciplined person?
"Yes, yes, Yi Zhe discussed with me a few days ago, saying that he didn't want the sect to lose a talented disciple like Chen Shaotian, and said he wanted to help him with the initiation. I know this is what he wants to do the most."
"Hmm?" Everyone was stunned. Not only the two great elders were stunned, but also the disciples of Sword God Peak were stunned.
Don't want the sect to lose such a talented disciple?
Initiation?
Is this what Lin Yize is like?
How could he do such a stupid thing?
You know, although the initiation can help the person who receives it to improve his breakthrough by one or two levels, it will also seriously deplete his own strength... Lin Yizhe usually tries his best to improve his cultivation and become a powerful leader, so how could he do such a thing?
The two supreme elders first looked at Chen Shaotian and found that he had indeed broken through to the early stage of the sixth level. Moreover, the water droplets contained in his body were definitely not something that an ordinary person in the early stage of the sixth level could possess.
I couldn't help but be surprised. This kid is really a genius..."Shaotian, let me ask you, is what your master's wife said true? Did your master really give you the initiation?" Ling Fengyun asked first. At this time, he had a faint guess, but he didn't quite believe it. He hoped to get Chen Shaotian's confirmation.
"That's right. A few days ago, my master talked to me and said that if I failed to break through again, the elders in the sect would most likely give up on me and expel me from the mountain. He couldn't bear to see me leave, and said that he wanted to give me an initiation. Shaotian didn't believe it at first... because my master has indeed been a little greedy for cultivation in recent years, and this is now known to everyone in Jianshen Peak."
"Today Shaotian wanted to say goodbye to Master and his wife, but Master insisted on giving me the initiation... He also said something like that, asking me not to forget him when I return to the Chen family... I don't really understand, how could I forget Master? Even if Master didn't give me the initiation, how could I forget him after so many years of master-disciple relationship... By the way, after the initiation, Master also said, "Well, not bad, not bad. You are so young and have reached the sixth level of cultivation. Since you have passed the heaven-human barrier, I believe that the strange thing that you cannot break through has been resolved, and the Chen family will definitely be satisfied." Chen Shaotian's expression was sincere, as if what he said was all true, and he also imitated the Master's tone of voice.
Su Meixian, who was standing by, had a calm expression but was horrified. She didn't know why he wanted to hide it, but since I had chosen him, I would help him keep it secret. I didn't expect him to be so smart...
"Then it was over. Master asked me to go to the training room to stabilize my cultivation, and then choose a few exercises. Then when I returned, I heard the bad news about Master... I was confused. What does my father's satisfaction have to do with Master? Are they good friends..." Chen Shaotian scratched his head and showed an honest look in front of everyone.
"It is indeed so." The two supreme elders present thought at the same time after hearing what Chen Shaotian said.
"Hmph, Lin Yize, Lin Yize, you are so scheming that you didn't hesitate to sacrifice your cultivation to curry favor with the Chen family. The Chen family paid great attention to this kid at that time, but this kid's cultivation was suddenly stuck for unknown reasons after he turned 13, and you wanted to restore his talent and make him a peerless genius of the same generation. At that time, the Chen family would definitely call him into the main family. With this kid's talent, although he is a side branch, he will definitely be valued. Maybe he will become the head of the next generation. And you took the opportunity to curry favor with the Chen family and took advantage of the situation to regain Tianjian Mountain. You are really scheming and have good means, but you never expected that you would be killed by someone else just when you completed the first step of your plan. Hahahaha, well done, well done... I am really grateful to that person. If it weren't for that person, wouldn't I have to obey you in the future?" Ling Fengyun thought to himself.
"Alas, Yi Zhe, that kid, has a really good plan. He actually kept the whole family in the dark. He must be afraid that the plan would be exposed and fail... But since you have already completed the first step, the next step will be completed by the family for you." Lin Xuan secretly made up his mind.
The disciples around were puzzled. They didn't know that Chen Shaotian was a branch of the Chen family, and most people didn't even know about the "Hidden Chen Family".
Some envied Chen Shaotian's good luck, while others complained that their master was unfair.
"Now that we have finished asking questions, should Elder Ling go back?" Lin Xuan said to Ling Fengyun. "Hmph, goodbye." Ling Fengyun stood up and left, thinking about the plan in his mind.
Should I win over this guy, or deal with him secretly?
He was somewhat undecided.
"Okay, it's all over, let's go back, Xiaoxian, you and I are family, you just do what Yi Tiansheng did in his lifetime, if there is anything you can't handle, you can come to me for advice, the Lin family will always be your home, Shaotian boy, come with me, I have something to say to you," Lin Xuan said to Su Meixian and then glanced at Chen Shaotian.
"Yes, granddaughter-in-law, remember this." Su Meixian bowed and said to Lin Xuan. But her words "granddaughter-in-law, remember this" made Chen Shaotian feel unhappy and a little jealous.
"You slut, you are my woman, and you still say you should remember this, granddaughter-in-law. Humph, wait and see how I punish you. I want to revive the husband's power, oh no, I want to revive the master's power," Chen Shaotian thought viciously.
After everyone left, Lin Xuan held Chen Shaotian's hand affectionately and walked side by side towards Jianshen Peak.
"Shaotian, do you know my identity now?" Lin Xuan said cordially, holding Chen Shaotian with one hand and stroking his beard with the other. Since he wanted to win over Chen Shaotian, he had to act like a family member.
Chen Shaotian looked at the amiable old man in front of him with disdain in his heart. "Hmph, you old immortal, you have good ideas, you want to win me over, but it's good this way, with these old immortals behind me, it will be more convenient in the sect in the future." But he said, "Could it be that the senior is the grandfather of the master?" He said with a very respectful look.
"Haha, you are a teachable kid. Yes, I am the grandfather of your late master. Your master often talked about you to me before he died. I always sighed that God is jealous of talented people. I didn't expect that he could help you so much before his early death. I admire his courage."
"..."
"Yizhe often said that he treats you as his own son or nephew. If your last name was not Chen, I would really like to adopt you as my Lin family's adopted son. But I heard that my great-granddaughter has an agreement with you, right?" Lin Xuan continued to sugar-coated bullets and said to Chen Shaotian step by step.
"Yes, that's true. Junior Sister Ke'er and I have been in love since childhood, but I was trapped by unknown reasons and gave up before. But I didn't expect Master... Master... Um, Um," Lin Xuan's tears seemed to be free, and they came as soon as he was called, showing that he was heartbroken.
Seeing that the young man in front of him was quite sensible, Lin Xuan was very pleased and stroked Chen Shaotian's head. "Alas, everything is fate. Don't be sad. You should turn your grief into motivation and practice hard to achieve something. I believe that your master's spirit in heaven will be deeply pleased by then."
"As for you and Ke'er, I will make the decision for you. When Ke'er fulfills your agreement, I will personally officiate your wedding. You will be considered half a member of the Lin family. Hahahaha, remember not to be proud and practice down to earth." Lin Xuan released his ultimate move.
"Really...really? Great-grandfather, please accept my great-grandson's greetings." Chen Shaotian took the opportunity to strike, but he didn't expect that the old man would be so kind to him.
"Zang Sunxu, get up quickly. We martial artists don't need such worldly etiquette." Lin Xuan was very happy to see the young man in front of him who seemed to be overwhelmed by happiness. This kid didn't seem to have any scheming. Well, he should be easy to use. It would not be a loss to take him as a great-grandson-in-law, and he could also get in touch with the "Hidden Chen Family".
At this moment, he seemed to see the future when the Lin family of Tianjian Mountain would be the only one in power and have the final say.
The more I think about it, the more excited I get.
"Well, don't rush to tell this kid about the hidden Chen family. It's not good to tell him too early. If possible, let this kid take the initiative to tell him. Then there will be no need to ask for favors. Just tell him that this kid will be more willing to work for the Lin family." At this moment, the two of them looked like a picture of a loving father and a filial son.
If someone who didn't know came here, they would probably be full of envy for the two people in front of them, but these two people actually had their own plans and were calculating against each other... Soon the two of them arrived at the Sword God Peak, and Lin Xuan reluctantly let go of his hand, "We have arrived at the Sword God Peak, Tian'er can go back, I sent you here and it's time to return to Jianlin Peak. Hahahaha, if you have any trouble in the future, you can go to your master's wife and tell her what I said today. She should be able to help you solve it. If she can't solve it, just come to Jianlin Peak to find me."
"Shaotian will remember this." Chen Shaotian bowed to Lin Xuan and walked towards the house where he lived.
He was not in a hurry to go find his master's wife. If he asked her for "guidance" on cultivation too frequently, it might make others suspicious. It would be better to go back to the house and see what other treasures were in the ring.
Either he would practice or go drink with Li Zhexian and Lin Bufan. Since he encountered obstacles in his cultivation, he hadn't met with the two of them for a long time.
When he approached his hut, he found that the other 29 disciples of Jianshen Peak were neatly lined up in two teams outside his house waiting for him.
The leaders of the two teams were the second apprentice brother Li Zhexian and the third apprentice brother Lin Bufan.
When he got closer, he asked, "Zhexian, Bufan, what's the name you two are trying to use to get yourself into? Why are you and other brothers blocking my door?"
"Hahahaha, that's what Senior Brother is saying," Li Zhexian said. It turned out that after the master passed away, there was no one to guide their cultivation. At this time, among all the disciples in the sect, Chen Shaotian had the highest cultivation level and was the most "loved" by the master. They wanted to come to Chen Shaotian often to ask him questions about cultivation in the future, and they also wanted Chen Shaotian to petition the master's wife on their behalf, so that they could become her disciples.
Although the master has passed away, the master's wife is still alive, and she is also a master of the eighth level of the mind method.
They don't want to live a life without anyone to guide them in their cultivation.
This idea came to them on their way back to the peak.
But because some of them had offended Chen Shaotian before, they begged Li Zhexian and Lin Bufan to let them speak. They knew that these two had a close personal relationship with Chen Shaotian, and they did not give up the "big brother" who was not worthy of the name during Chen Shaotian's darkest days. Now Chen Shaotian's cultivation has surpassed everyone present, and even some disciples who entered the sect earlier are not as good as him. Firstly, they did not dare to ask Chen Shaotian alone, and secondly, they knew that the chances of success were the highest if these two spoke up, so they respectfully invited the two to come out and ask them to petition Chen Shaotian.
"I see. I agree to your first request, but I will set a time. No one can come to see me outside of this time. As for the second request, I will also ask Master's wife for advice. As for whether it will succeed or not, I am undecided." Chen Shaotian said to everyone.
"Thank you, big brother." Everyone bowed together.
As for the second request, Chen Shaotian will definitely not agree. If Master-wife is instructing you all day long, how can I have "happy time"? Hehe, it shouldn't be difficult to find a reason for Xiannu to reject you... As for Zhexian and Bufan, with my personal guidance, the effect shouldn't be too bad.
Chen Shaotian thought to himself, "Okay, you guys go away, Zhexian and Bufan stay, we three brothers haven't talked together for a long time, let's practice some martial arts." The master had just died, if he asked for a good reunion, Li Zhexian and Lin Bufan wouldn't say anything, but the rest of the people would definitely argue.
Ah, the master just died, and you guys still want to have a drinking party?
Everyone will think so.
Then the negative reputation will spread.
Chen Shaotian was taught by his father since he was a child that when traveling in the martial arts world, strength is the first thing to look at, and face is the second. Even if one is not strong enough but is a kind person praised by everyone, it will also produce miraculous results.
Chen Shaotian is well versed in this.
After everyone left, a few people still stayed. They knelt down in front of Chen Shaotian without caring about their image, and kowtowed like crazy.
"Please, please, Senior Brother Chen, please be magnanimous and don't be mean to us... We are all poor children. When we came to the sect, we thought everyone was equal. But when we saw that the sect paid too much attention to Senior Brother Chen, we became jealous. We regret humiliating Senior Brother Chen before... Please forgive me." Looking at the people in front of him who kept kowtowing, Chen Shaotian felt extremely disdainful. If these people could go against him to the end, he would still respect them as men.
Such a small-minded person who bullies the weak and fears the strong is really despicable.
"Forget it, the past is the past, you can go back," Chen Shaotian said, waving his hand to the crowd.
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother. We will definitely change our ways and start a new life in the future." Everyone said in unison, and then left one after another trembling.
Strength is really a good thing. When he had no strength, he could still remember clearly how everyone bullied him. But when they knew he had strength, they softened one by one, bowed and knelt down.
Heh, Chen Shaotian sneered disdainfully, and Li Zhexian and Lin Bufan understood and said, "They are just that kind of people, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. They will never change. Brother, don't be angry with such villains."
"Nothing, no, I'm not that angry. We three brothers haven't gathered for a long time, I think we can have a good gathering today, if you two have any questions about cultivation, you can ask me like you did in the past, although my strength is from the initiation, but my understanding of cultivation is not inferior to that of normal practitioners." Chen Shaotian said.
"Hahahaha, even if Senior Brother didn't say so, we would still shamelessly ask Senior Brother for advice. The scene when the three of us brothers practiced together is still vivid in my mind," Lin Bufan said with a smile.
"Yes, now it's good, the eldest brother has recovered, not only that, but he has also reached a higher level, leaving both of us behind, just like before." There was no falsehood in the two people's words. They didn't care at all that Chen Shaotian's cultivation was far ahead of their own, and they were not jealous, because they knew the eldest brother's character.
They were also happy for the elder brother.
When Lin Bufan heard the news that his senior brother had broken through to the sixth level, he was so excited that he shed tears. The brotherhood between them and Chen Shaotian was truly evident to all.
The three of them then went to the martial arts arena of Jianshen Peak, under the pretext of sparring, but in fact Chen Shaotian wanted to understand his own strength.
The two also wanted to know how big the gap was between themselves and the sixth level masters of the Heart Technique.
At that time, Chen Shaotian knocked both of them to the ground with just one palm, and both of them vomited blood and were unable to get up.
"Ouch, it hurts so much," they both groaned at the same time.
"Brother, how much strength did you use in this palm?" The two asked impatiently. "Less than half," Chen Shaotian answered.
"Ah??? Senior Brother must have used a more advanced palm technique?" The two asked disappointedly. "Are you two stupid? Have you never practiced martial arts? Don't you know what martial arts are like... I just casually hit them with my palm." Chen Shaotian said helplessly, feeling a bit embarrassed... "Senior Brother, you can just beat us to death... Although we were not your opponents at the beginning, it would not be so easy for you to defeat us together. Now it's great... Senior Brother hit us hard with a palm... It's really unfair." Lin Bufan said with a smile. Chen Shaotian originally planned to fight the two with half of his cultivation, and then defeat them. Unexpectedly, even with half of his cultivation, the two could not withstand it.
I couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder it's so hard for high-level martial artists to break through. This one level difference is like a world of difference."
"Yes, yes... Senior Brother is so powerful now, I wonder when we can cultivate to the sixth level..." Li Zhexian also laughed. The two of them felt helpless about the situation in front of them. They didn't expect that they were so far behind their senior brother..." Don't be discouraged, you two are also geniuses. I believe it won't take long for you to reach my current level. Your current means of attack is the true qi in the Dantian, and I have stepped into the gap between heaven and man. The strength of the raindrops in the Dantian is countless times that of the true qi. If I were at the fifth level of cultivation, it would be really difficult to defeat you." Chen Shaotian told a white lie. In fact, the fifth level of cultivation can easily defeat them..." Senior Brother was comforted. We know our own strengths and weaknesses. We just want to see the gap between us and the masters. But what is the gap between heaven and man?" Li Zhexian asked. "Yes, yes, what are raindrops?" Lin Bufan was also confused.
Chen Shaotian reluctantly told them about the story of Tian Ren Zhi Ge and Yu Di, and then said, "You two, read more books when you have nothing to do. You don't listen carefully when the master teaches you these knowledge. Remember to go to the sect's library every day to read more books. It will also be very beneficial." The three of them came to a tavern opened in the sect that they had not seen for a long time, booked a private room, and the three of them ate and drank a lot. At that time, the whole room was filled with the laughter of the three of them. When the three of them drank almost all the wine, Lin Bufan and Li Zhexian actually cried, crying for the eldest brother to be able to resume cultivation, and crying for the eldest brother's current cultivation.
Crying for the elder brother to stay.
Chen Shaotian's eyes were filled with tears and his heart was filled with emotion.
Since he left home, only these two brothers and Lin Ke'er were truly kind to him. He recalled the time when he was 16 years old and he failed to break through again and again. When his master was extremely disappointed with him and wanted to take back his training room, the two of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the master to ask him to take back his order.
Think about how whenever they were bullied by their fellow disciples, they would always stand up for themselves and fight with the bullies. At that time, the three brothers would always have big lumps on their heads and blood all over their bodies.
"Brothers, what are your plans for the future?" Chen Shaotian asked.
"What plans can I have? The third brother is from a wealthy family, and he is a member of the Lin family. I guess he will stay in the sect as an elder after his cultivation level improves. But I can't do that. My family is only a second-rate force in the secular world. When I succeed in cultivation, I plan to go home to guard the family and avoid invasion by foreign enemies. Eh? Why are you asking this, senior brother?"
"I want to do something after I have cultivated successfully. It will be boring to do it alone. You two are the only two people I trust in this sect. I wanted to bring you along. Alas, I didn't expect you have already made plans for the future," Chen Shaotian said helplessly.
"That's great, Senior Brother is a man who can do great things. Let's follow him and do it together. Hahahaha, by then the family will definitely be proud of me. Other families will definitely not dare to disturb me when they hear that I am the eldest brother." Li Zhexian said, as if he had seen the future. He believed that the eldest brother could definitely do it.
"Alas, I'm not sure. I don't know if I can stay with my senior brother at that time... I can't decide what to do in the family, but if the family agrees, I will definitely stay with my senior brother." Lin Bufan said helplessly, his eyes full of yearning and regret.
"Don't worry, they will definitely do it." Chen Shaotian said affirmatively.
"There's no rush for this. Now your senior brother is considered a master in the eyes of ordinary people at the sixth level of the Dim Sum Technique, but in the eyes of real masters, he is just a small shrimp. Hahahaha, I plan to go out and practice in a few days. I wonder if you two brothers can go with me." Chen Shaotian asked.
"No, Senior Brother, I'm going to go back home in a while. Mother often writes to urge me to go back, and I don't think I can come back for a while. If you don't mind, you can come to my house to find me. Our Li Mansion in Potian City welcomes you at any time." Li Zhexian said sadly. He also wanted to go with Senior Brother to practice together, but his family has been urging him to go back as soon as possible. If it weren't for the news of Master's death and the arrival of the Thirty-Six Peaks Conference, he might have already set off. "Okay, I will definitely go when the time comes. What about you, Third Brother?"
"Alas, I can't go either... The Lin family members will have their own training missions. Alas..." Lin Bufan also refused.
"It's okay, it's okay. After I finish my training, I'll go to the Li family to find the second brother first. Then we'll wait for your good news together. We'll train together again. Hahahaha." After saying that, Chen Shaotian drank the wine in the glass, and the two did the same.
The three returned to their own house drunk.
