Elder Nan Gong understood that Exalted Immortal Xiao must have an incomparably powerful backer. Otherwise, who would be willing to become a disciple of a yellow-haired brat?
"Pfft …" Hong Zhu had just drunk a mouthful of water, but upon hearing Elder Nan Gong's words, he spat it all out. He couldn't help but look at Elder Nan Gong with a strange expression. He couldn't figure out how this old man could have the face to say such shameless words.
"Cough, cough, alright then!" Xiao Chen had already guessed Elder Nan Gong's intentions, so he wasn't too surprised. Clearing his throat, he said, "This Exalted Immortal will temporarily accept you as an in-name disciple!"
"Ah? In-name … in-name disciple? " Elder Nan Gong was about to rejoice when he heard the first half of Xiao Chen's sentence, but when he heard that Xiao Chen would only accept him as an in-name disciple, his excitement was immediately extinguished.
One had to know that in-name disciple was just a title. It wasn't a true disciple of the sect. Instead, one could be kicked out of the sect at any time!
"En, from now on, it will depend on your performance! If you can satisfy me, I will turn you into an official disciple. At that time, I might even be able to guide you on the path of cultivation. "Xiao Chen nodded very naturally.
In any case, he had already accepted two disciples, so it didn't matter if he accepted one more. Moreover, Elder Nan Gong had the backing of the Profound Cloud Sect, so it would be much more convenient to do things!
As for accepting Elder Nan Gong as an in-name disciple, it was because Xiao Chen was afraid that if he directly accepted him as a disciple, Elder Nan Gong wouldn't be attentive enough when taking care of the Burning Sky Sect. If he left a thought for him, perhaps it would have a miraculous effect!
"Hahahahaha! Thank you, Exalted Immortal Xiao … No, thank you, Master, for your kindness! " Hearing Xiao Chen's promise, Elder Nan Gong's mood immediately brightened up. Beaming with joy, he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, from today onwards, Burning Sky Sect will be left to me. As long as I am alive, I will not allow anyone to touch even a single hair of their sect!"
Hong Zhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he rolled his eyes at Elder Nan Gong. This guy was really crazy with joy. Who would use "a single hair" to describe a sect? Wasn't he afraid of making others laugh their heads off?
Elder Nangong did not notice at all. He solemnly bowed to Xiao Chen to acknowledge him as his master. Then, he said respectfully, "Then I'll take my leave first. I'll go back and brew the medicine. I won't disturb your rest!"
After receiving Xiao Chen's acknowledgement, Elder Nan Gong went back to his room happily. His master was really too powerful. Not only could he heal old wounds, he could even completely heal broken meridians, but his own strength was also frighteningly high. This time, Master was had Nan Yang Gong had thought. of.
As he thought about it, Elder Nangong's thoughts floated even more. He thought that if he could get to know that hidden master through his master, as long as there was a little bit of connection, the status of the Profound Cloud Sect would definitely rise. It wouldn't be long before they could suppress the Huan Chen Pavilion and become the number one sect in the cultivation world!
Elder Nan Gong seemed to be able to see the blueprint of the future. He was laughing so hard in his room that his eyebrows could barely be seen. As he prepared the medicine, he hummed a little tune, as happy as a child.
Xiao Chen didn't think as much as Elder Nan Gong. After sending off Elder Nan Gong, he and Hong Zhu began to pack up their belongings, preparing to leave Yao Xian Province and head east. They planned to inquire about the location of the Dark Green Demonic Valley as they traveled.
Although the Elder Heaven Ancestor hadn't said what treasures he had hidden in there, Xiao Chen still wanted to obtain those things as soon as possible under the great temptation of treasures. That way, he would be able to increase his own strength. Fortunately, he would have a stronger support in the process of searching for people.
After two days of recuperation, Elder Nan Gong was surprised to find that he had completely recovered. Not only did all the meridians in his body that had been broken by Xiao Chen completely recover, even the small injuries and pains that he had suffered when he was cultivating in the past were completely healed. His strength had also returned to its previous level!
Although he was happy, Elder Nan Gong still had some doubts. According to his disciple's feedback, Gong Ruitong seemed to have spent half a month from the beginning of his treatment to the point where he could walk. Why did it only take him two days?
After thinking about it, Elder Nan Gong could only think that it was because his injuries were new and not old wounds like Gong Ruitong's. Therefore, his recovery would be faster!
No matter what, he had already fully recovered. Feeling the abundant vitality in his body, Elder Nan Gong was filled with even more admiration towards Exalted Immortal Xiao. There was no longer a trace of doubt, and he was dead set on becoming Exalted Immortal Xiao's disciple!
However, when he thought of this, Elder Nan Gong felt a little guilty. He felt that he was only a nominal disciple now. It was really not very safe. What if Xiao Chen returned and refused to acknowledge him? Wouldn't it be like drawing water with a sieve?
After pondering for a long time, Elder Nan Gong decided to go to Burning Sky Faction personally and think of a way to build a good relationship with Big Senior Brother Gong Shaoxi and Second Senior Brother Gong Ruitong!
In this way, when Xiao Chen returned, he could ask his two Senior Brothers to put in a few good words for him. Maybe Xiao Chen would agree to let him become an official disciple!
After making up his mind, Elder Nan Gong could no longer sit still. He rushed back to the faction overnight and picked a few of his close subordinates. He ordered them to prepare all kinds of treasures, as well as a number of Spiritual Crystals and magical equipment as a greeting gift. Then, he rushed towards Liuxian County without stopping.
Early the next morning, in the plaza of the Burning Sky Faction, Gong Shaoxi and Gong Ruitong were teaching the sect's disciples how to cultivate. The two of them would occasionally whisper to each other, discussing how to quickly increase their strength.
When the group of people was in full swing, they heard footsteps coming from afar. A guard who was guarding the door ran over in a panic.
"Grand Elder, Deacon Elder! Not … not good! " The guard was out of breath from running. His face looked a little pale. It was obvious that he was quite frightened. When he spoke, he was panting.
"What's going on? Why are you so impatient? Let's talk this out! "Gong Ruitong frowned and reprimanded with some dissatisfaction.
"It's … it's Elder Nan Gong from Xuan Yun Sect again!" The guard's voice was a little shaky. "This time, he brought a group of people with him. He specially … specially asked for the two of you. He said that he has something important to discuss with you!"
"Nan Gong? Why is he here again … "Gong Shaoxi and Gong Ruitong looked at each other and muttered in confusion.
