As the voice traveled over, the figure of the speaker approached rapidly and appeared in front of Wang Baole and the old bull in an instant. It was a young man who looked to be only 14 or 15 years old. His body was thin, but his head was very big. He looked as if he was severely malnourished, like a bean sprout. It was as if the wind would pull his body down if his head tilted …
It would have been fine if that was all there was to it. However, the youth had a shifty look in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was up to no good. After arriving, a strange glow appeared in his eyes as he looked at Wang Baole, who was on the old bull's back.
"This must be the Sixteenth Junior Brother Wang Baole that Master mentioned some time ago. Haha, hello, Sixteenth Junior Brother. I'm your Fifteenth Senior Brother."
Wang Baole quickly got up and left the old bull's back. He cupped his fists and bowed to the young man in front of him. Although the other party did not look old, Wang Baole knew very well that age could not be judged by appearance. There were too many old monsters who liked to pretend to be young …
In particular, the Planet realm fluctuations coming from the young man's body proved Wang Baole's judgment. Therefore, when he greeted him, he also greeted him respectfully.
"Greetings, Fifteenth Senior Brother!"
"Sixteenth Senior Brother, you don't have to be so polite. We will be family from now on." He was clearly speaking with a smile, and his tone was very gentle, but under Fifteen's shifty-eyed appearance, the words he said always gave people a feeling that he was harboring malicious intentions.
That made Wang Baole wary. The old bull, who was beside him, yawned.
"Alright, I've brought him here. I'll take my leave first." With that, the old bull's body swayed, and it galloped up into the sky. The moment it was about to leave, Wang Baole hurriedly turned around to bid farewell. Just as he was about to speak, Fifteenth Senior Brother lay down in midair and shouted loudly.
"Farewell, Senior Brother Bull, who is invincible in the world and can fight in all the galaxies and win every battle!"
His voice was so loud that it spread in all directions. Even Wang Baole was shocked. When he first heard Fifteen's respect for the old ox, he didn't pay much attention to it. However, looking at it now, this Fifteen was clearly bootlicking and flattering.
This seemed to be slightly different from what the old bull had told him before … As Wang Baole hesitated in his heart, the old bull let out a snort, then disappeared into the sky without a trace.
Even after the old bull left, Fifteenth remained sprawled on the ground. After seven to eight breaths, Wang Baole could no longer hold back his urge to speak. Only then did Fifteenth slowly stand up and look at Wang Baole with his hands behind his back.
"Sixteen, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you have to learn from me. You should know that Senior Ox is the Guardian Divine Beast of the Raging Flame Galaxy. He was born in the sea of fire and blended into the starry sky to protect all directions … Even Master is very polite to Senior Ox."
"So, you know … When you see Senior Ox in the future, you have to be respectful and polite. If you bow like you did just now, you won't be able to show your sincerity. It's a little inappropriate."
Wang Baole was stunned when he heard this. He wanted to say that he did not understand, but he could not bring himself to say it. So, he raised his head and looked at the place where Old Bull had disappeared, then looked at Bean Sprout Fifteen, who had a serious expression on his face. After hesitating for a while, he replied.
"Senior Brother Fifteen … Do you really want to do this? I'm young, don't lie to me … "
"Child, I'm old enough to be your grandfather. Why would I lie to you?" As Bean Sprout Fifteen spoke, he looked around, then moved closer to Wang Baole and whispered mysteriously beside him.
"Let me tell you, Sixteen, listen to me. That Senior Ox … You know … You can't provoke him. This ox is very petty, and it's definitely rare in the world. One look from him can make him angry. Sometimes, Master is not only polite to him, but also tolerates him. I've always suspected …"
"This Old Bull is the boss of our Raging Flame Galaxy!" Fifteen spoke seriously, which made Wang Baole even more confused. He thought to himself, What is this … Is there something wrong with Senior Brother Fifteen's head?
But no matter what, in this Raging Flame Galaxy, whether it was Old Bull or this Senior Brother Fifteen in front of him, they both gave him a very strange feeling. So, Wang Baole followed his advice and nodded in agreement.
"Thank you for your reminder, Senior Brother!"
Seeing that Wang Baole approved of him, the bean-sprout-like Fifteen was very happy. He coughed and spoke.
"Sixteen, Master went out yesterday for some matters. Before he left, he arranged for me to come and welcome you. You know, when Master returns, he will summon you. How about this, I'll bring you to familiarize yourself with the environment here. At the same time, I'll introduce you to the other Senior Brothers and Sisters."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Fifteen." Wang Baole was no longer in the mood to complain about the other party's "you know" every few sentences. He hurriedly thanked him and had no objections. It was his first time here, so he naturally had to familiarize himself with the environment and meet his fellow disciples.
And through his Senior Brothers and Sisters, Wang Baole felt that he could make a clearer judgment about the Raging Flame Laozu. After all, this place … would be his second home for some time in the future.
So, he really wanted to get along well with his Senior Brothers and Sisters. As for this Senior Brother Fifteen in front of him, although there seemed to be something wrong with his head and his appearance was strange, Wang Baole still had a faint intuition that the other party had no ill intentions.
Just like this, after Wang Baole agreed, Fifteen swaggered down with Wang Baole. At the same time, he began to introduce the buildings in this area.
"Our Raging Flame Sect, you know … It's actually very simple. There's nothing much to introduce. You just need to know that the largest tower is where Master goes into seclusion, stays, and summons us."
"As for the sixteen surrounding towers, they are our residences. The sixteenth tower that has just been built over there will be your place of cultivation in the future." Fifteen pointed at the tower in the distance. Wang Baole looked over and memorized the location. Soon, he was brought to the fourteenth tower by Fifteen.
"I'll bring you to meet Senior Brother Fourteen first. Senior Brother Fourteen is a very good person. His temper is also very stable. Basically, he doesn't fight back when you hit him, he doesn't talk back when you scold him. You know … he's our role model." Fifteen shook his head and sighed.
Wang Baole had already gotten used to the way he spoke. Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, he followed Fifteen to the fourteenth tower. He saw that the door to the fourteenth tower was closed. Other than a rock garden for decoration, there was nothing else. At the same time, the waves within the tower were blocked, so he couldn't sense them. Hence, he was about to bow to the tower in front of him …
However, before he could do so, Fifteen quickly took a few steps forward and bowed deeply to the decorative rockery in front of the fourteenth pagoda. He even called out loudly.
"Fifteen greets Senior Brother Fourteen!" When he bowed, Fifteen even winked at Wang Baole.
Wang Baole was stunned again. He looked at the rock garden, then at Fifteen who was winking at him. He braced himself and bowed deeply.
"Sixteen greets Senior Brother Fourteen!"
Their greetings didn't elicit any response from the rock garden. After waiting for a while, Fifteen sighed softly and stood up. He whispered to Wang Baole.
"I was right, wasn't I? Senior Brother Fourteen is our role model. Not only did he not fight back when we hit him, he didn't even care about our greetings."
Wang Baole didn't know whether to laugh or cry. At the same time, he looked carefully at the rock garden. After hesitating for a while, he asked in a low voice.
"Senior Brother Fifteen, is Senior Brother Fourteen a life form made of stone?"
"Life form made of stone?" Fifteen looked at Wang Baole in surprise.
"Sixteen, I want to criticize you. How can you say that about Senior Brother Fourteen? Let me tell you, Senior Brother Fourteen has amazing talent. Just like us, he's made of flesh and blood!"
"It's just that …" At this point, Fifteen paused. After looking around, he pulled the stunned Wang Baole aside and whispered mysteriously.
"It's just that he's too obedient. One day 137 years ago, he listened to his master's instructions and practiced a transformation technique that his master obtained from who knows where. He transformed himself into a stubborn rock … In the end, there was an accident and he couldn't change back … And he's stubborn, you know … He refused his master's help and wanted to change back with his own efforts …"
"It's been 137 years …" As Wang Baole was dumbfounded, Fifteen let out a long sigh.
"According to my judgment, Senior Brother Fourteen should be able to succeed in another five hundred years."
Listening to Fifteen's words, recalling Fifteen's behavior after he arrived, and looking at the rock garden again, Wang Baole's face couldn't help but be at a loss. A question arose in his mind.
"Where … have I come to …"
