In the blink of an eye, he had two half-sage bodyguards. Xiao Chen thoroughly felt the benefits of becoming a Quasi-Holy Son.
According to Elder Hei and Elder Master Bai, a Quasi-Holy Son could have two half-sage bodyguards, while a Holy Son could have four. In addition, a Holy Son could also have a Holy Servant, but a Quasi-Holy Son couldn't. This was the difference between a Quasi-Holy Son and a Holy Son.
After chatting with the two elders for a long time, Xiao Chen finally accepted them. In fact, Xiao Chen didn't dislike Elder Hei and Elder Master Bai. In fact, Xiao Chen sincerely welcomed their arrival.
Xiao Chen wasn't a hypocrite. Having two half-sage bodyguards by his side was absolutely beneficial to him. What reason did Xiao Chen have to refuse?
Xiao Chen quickly accepted the two elders. He stood up and bowed to the two elders. "Junior Xiao Chen would like to thank the two elders in advance. I'm afraid there will be many things that I'll need to trouble the two elders in the future."
Although Elder Hei and Elder Master Bai were nominally his bodyguards, Xiao Chen didn't treat them as servants. This was also Xiao Chen's character.
Xiao Chen didn't like too many rules. As long as he and the people around him did their job well, Xiao Chen hoped that they could be more casual with the rest of the time. Just like with Fei Mei and the other three girls, Xiao Chen never treated them as maids, let alone looked down on them.
Seeing Xiao Chen's attitude, Elder Master Bai smiled slightly. Obviously, he also had a preliminary impression of Xiao Chen and Elder Master Bai. They were talented and approachable. He was very satisfied with Xiao Chen as his master.
Elder Hei personally helped Xiao Chen up and said with a smile, "Quasi-Holy Son is too polite. From now on, we two old men will follow Young Master's lead."
"Elder Hei, you're too polite. However, don't call me Prospective Saint anymore. Just call me Young Master," said Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen preferred to be addressed as' Young Master 'by the two elders. Naturally, the two elders would not refuse and immediately addressed Xiao Chen as' Young Master 'instead.
With Elder Master Bai by his side, Xiao Chen was saved from a lot of trouble. The two elders were extremely familiar with the situation of the Ancient Sacred Sect. Hence, with the two elders' introduction, Xiao Chen quickly understood the basic situation of the Ancient Sacred Sect.
As of now, Xiao Chen could be considered as the fifth candidate Holy Son of the Ancient Sacred Sect. However, there was still one last thing that Xiao Chen needed to do, and that was to choose a Holy Palace.
According to the two elders' explanation, there were a total of four Holy Palaces in the Ancient Sacred Sect. All the disciples of the Ancient Sacred Sect would be divided into the four Holy Palaces, and the masters of the four Holy Palaces would be the four Holy Sons of the Ancient Sacred Sect.
In other words, the four Holy Palaces were like countries within countries to the Ancient Sacred Sect. Every Holy Palace was led by a Holy Son, and all the disciples who joined the Holy Palaces had to follow the rules of the Holy Palaces.
As for the four Holy Palaces, the rules of each Holy Palace were different, and the four Holy Sons were free to decide.
To the Ancient Sacred Sect, the Gate of Life was only a framework. As for the other details, the four Holy Sons would decide on their own.
It was exactly because of this that the four Holy Sons possessed endless authority. It was no exaggeration to say that basically all the Saints in the Ancient Sacred Sect did not care about anything. The four Holy Sons were the ones who truly held the power of life and death.
Xiao Chen was now the fifth Holy Son candidate, so he had to choose a Holy Palace to join and become a Holy Son's right-hand man.
Currently, the four Holy Sons each had a Holy Son as their assistant. No matter which Holy Palace Xiao Chen chose to join, it would mean that there would be two Holy Sons in that Holy Palace.
After listening to the two elders' explanation, Xiao Chen sighed softly in the end. "The four Holy Palaces, countries within countries? The Ancient Sacred Sect really is unique. "
The management of the Ancient Sacred Sect could be said to be the most unique that Xiao Chen had come into contact with so far. It was no exaggeration to say that the existence of the four Holy Palaces meant that all the disciples of the Ancient Sacred Sect had been forcefully divided into four factions.
They seemed to belong to the same sect, but there was actually a huge difference. This was because the rules of each Holy Palace were different. Some were strict, while others were lax. It all depended on the personality of the Holy Son who controlled the Holy Palace.
Normally, the Saints of the Ancient Sacred Sect would not ask about the matters of the four Holy Palaces. It was precisely because of this that the relationship between the four Holy Palaces was not harmonious. There would be conflicts from time to time.
Perhaps this was the Saints' objective. After all, there would only be pressure when there was competition, and only with pressure would there be motivation. Competition between the disciples of the sect was not a bad thing. It was just that the Ancient Sacred Sect had used the most direct method to show this.
Next, he needed to choose a Holy Palace. As Xiao Chen murmured, Elder Master Bai also spoke up.
"You're right, young master. The four Holy Palaces are countries within countries to the Ancient Sacred Sect, so you need to be careful when choosing a Holy Palace. As a Holy Son candidate, once you choose a Holy Palace, you'll be second only to one person. Things will become very troublesome if you encounter a Holy Son who doesn't suit you."
"That's right. The four Holy Palaces of the Ancient Sacred Sect are currently controlled by the four Holy Sons. The four Holy Sons all have different personalities. If you choose a Holy Palace, the result will be different. You need to be careful, young master." Elder Hei also spoke up.
After understanding the situation of the four Holy Palaces, Xiao Chen had already made a decision in his heart. If Xiao Chen had to choose one of the four Holy Sons, there was no need to hesitate too much. It was naturally Chen Yu.
Putting aside the fact that Xiao Chen knew Chen Yu, most importantly, he knew Chen Yu's personality very well. This guy could be said to be lazy to an extremely high level. Xiao Chen believed that there would not be any conflicts if he were to be with such a Holy Son. Therefore, Xiao Chen had already made up his mind to choose the Holy Palace that Chen Yu was in.
Even though he had already made up his mind, Xiao Chen still looked at Elder Hei and Elder Master Bai and asked, "I'm currently ranked fifth among the five Holy Sons of the Ancient Sacred Sect. The Holy Sons have a ranking. Do the two elders know how the four Holy Sons are ranked?"
The Holy Sons had a ranking. Xiao Chen was currently ranked last, but Xiao Chen had no idea how strong or weak the four Holy Sons were. Therefore, he asked.
Elder Master Bai did not hide anything and replied truthfully after hearing Xiao Chen's question.
"The four Holy Sons rarely fight, so it's very difficult for outsiders to know how strong they are now. However, according to the previous ranking, the weakest among the four Holy Sons should be Holy Son Jiang Yue, followed by Holy Son Hu Fei, Holy Son Qing Di, and as for first place, it should be Holy Son Chen Yu."
Chen Yu, Qing Di, Hu Fei, and Jiang Yue were the four Holy Sons of the Ancient Sacred Sect. However, Xiao Chen was momentarily stunned by Elder Master Bai's words. He looked at Elder Master Bai and asked in disbelief.
"Elder Master Bai, are you sure? Chen Yu is the first Holy Son of the Ancient Sacred Sect? "
