The Formless Blade Sect Hall. This was the place where the sect discussed matters, and was also the most majestic hall in the Formless Blade Sect. Only those with status in the sect could enter. Previously, Mo Wuji had only seen it from afar, but had never been to the hall.
This time, after he had refined the five Water Velvet Vines into a medicinal liquid, he had rushed here as soon as possible. Luckily, Pill Master Shi's jade token worked, or else he would not even be able to get close to the entrance of the hall.
"Service disciple Mo Wuji greets the elders of the sect." Mo Wuji stood at the entrance of the hall and greeted loudly. The people sitting here were the most authoritative elders of the sect. Each of them were powerful immortal masters, and as a service disciple, he did not dare to be disrespectful.
"Sect head, elders, this service disciple is called Mo Wuji, and he is my ingredient boy. He helps me concoct the ingredients, and it's very easy for me to concoct pills." Shi Jun, who had been waiting anxiously, hurriedly stood up when he saw Mo Wuji.
Sitting at the head of the table was a middle-aged man with a thin face and a short beard. He sat upright, like a sharp sword that could not be hidden in its sheath.
Mo Wuji guessed that this man was the sect head of the Formless Blade Sect. Indeed, after Shi Jun finished speaking, the middle-aged man nodded, "Since you are Pill Master Shi's ingredient boy, and also a disciple of the Formless Blade Sect, please come in."
Mo Wuji noticed the wording of the sect head's words. Firstly, he did not call him a service disciple, and secondly, he used the word 'please' when inviting him in.
"Thank you sect head." Mo Wuji did not wait for Pill Master Shi to thank him, and had already entered the hall.
The elders and pill masters in the hall sized up Mo Wuji suspiciously. Looking at his age, Mo Wuji was at most in his twenties. For a service disciple like him to enter such a solemn hall, and face so many immortal masters, he would definitely be trembling in fear. Who would be like Mo Wuji, taking big strides in, and calmly thanking the sect head?
To Mo Wuji, he had attended many international drug conferences on Earth, and every time, he would be with the leaders of various countries, so he was already used to it.
"Wuji, come sit beside me." Shi Jun patted the seat beside him and called out to Mo Wuji.
In front of Mo Wuji, he really could not put on airs. Even though Mo Wuji was a service disciple, he had no desires. Back then, he had wanted to ask the other party to become a medicine boy, but the other party had refused. So, even though he was a pill refiner and Mo Wuji was just a servant, he still needed Mo Wuji's help.
"Thank you, Master Shi." Mo Wuji clasped his fists and thanked Shi Jun. He walked over and sat beside Shi Jun. At the same time, he whispered, "Pill Master Shi, if your pill concoction is successful, I want to enter the Formless Blade Mountain to take a look."
Shi Jun waved his hand, "No problem. Every pill refiner that enters the Formless Blade Mountain has the right to bring an ingredient boy in. As long as you can help me refine pills successfully, you can go in with me. "
"This doesn't make sense, does it? How could a service disciple sit in such a place? It's a disgrace to the dignity of the Sect Hall. "A voice suddenly sounded, and there was even some anger in it.
Mo Wuji immediately looked over. It was a young man. This young man was dressed in a brocade robe, and his entire body exuded the aura of a superior.
Mo Wuji was extremely unhappy. Who was this fella? What's wrong with him sitting here? Why did he have to stand when everyone else was sitting?
Even though he was unhappy, Mo Wuji knew that he did not have the power to change anything. He could only look towards Shi Jun. If Shi Jun did not have the ability to speak, then he would be out of luck.
Shi Jun laughed dryly and said, "Pill Master Ju, everyone is sitting here. It's not good to let Wuji stand alone."
The brocade robed man called Pill Master Ju said coldly, "None of the pill refiners here want an ingredient boy. You're the only one who needs an ingredient boy. That's right, Pill Master Shi's pill concoction skills are so high that it would be inappropriate for you to not have an ingredient boy. "
Even though Shi Jun knew that his status was not as high as the brocade robed youth, he was still enraged by his words.
Even though Mo Wuji was unhappy, he did not want to implicate Shi Jun. Just as he was about to stand up and signal Shi Jun not to cause a ruckus over such a small matter, Pill Master Ju said coldly, "A mere ingredient boy like you dares to sit here?"
Mo Wuji, who originally wanted to stand up, did not move. If not for the fact that Yan 'Er was still here, he would have mocked him. So what if I'm an ingredient boy? It was Pill Master Shi's idea for him to sit down. Moreover, he was Pill Master Shi's ingredient boy, not Pill Master Ju. Pill Master Shi's status was not any lower than his. Did this fella eat the wrong medicine to make things difficult for him?
"Mo Wuji, as an ingredient boy, how dare you sit there while two pill refiners are arguing?" An elder sitting on the first seat on the left suddenly asked. His words seemed to be biased towards Pill Master Ju.
Mo Wuji knew that the person sitting on the first seat on the left was definitely not an ordinary person. He was most likely the number one elder. He stood up, cupped his fists towards the old man and said, "Senior, please understand. If this was any other time, I would have already stood up. I would not have allowed Pill Master Shi and Pill Master Ju to argue over my seat. But after the sect head's teachings, I understood something, so I sat there without moving. "
The sect head's teachings? Everyone looked towards Gu Ran, who was sitting at the highest seat. Gu Ran was the sect head of the Formless Blade Sect. He had never even accepted a disciple, so why would he teach a service disciple?
Even Gu Ran looked towards Mo Wuji. He did not know when he had taught Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji said calmly, "A service disciple naturally has no status in the eyes of an expert. For example, Pill Master Ju told me to stand up because I was a service disciple. But when I entered the hall, the sect head did not specifically call me a service disciple. This shows that in the sect head's eyes, no matter if you are a core disciple, an inner disciple, an outer disciple or a service disciple, as long as you are in the Formless Blade Sect, you are a disciple of the Formless Blade Sect. "
When Mo Wuji entered the hall, the sect head did not specifically call him a service disciple. No one expected Mo Wuji to use this as the sect head's teachings.
Without waiting for the crowd to speak, Mo Wuji continued, "The sect head even used the word 'please' for a lowly disciple like me. This shows that in the sect head's eyes, everyone is equal. "
"This is the sect head's teachings?" The elder sitting on the first seat on the left asked again.
Mo Wuji said solemnly, "Yes, in the sect head's eyes, there is no difference in status. This is the sect head's teachings for me."
"Good, there is no difference in status. I've learnt my lesson." The first seat on the right was a young lady. She actually stood up and applauded, clearly agreeing with Mo Wuji's words.
Mo Wuji then noticed this lady. She looked very young, probably only a few years older than him. Her looks were very average, and could even be described as slightly ugly. For such a young lady to sit so close to the sect head, she probably had a high position in the sect.
In reality, everyone could hear the hidden meaning behind Mo Wuji's words. The sect head's character was very high, while Pill Master Ju's character was ordinary.
The sect head nodded his head and said warmly to Mo Wuji, "Take a seat."
"Thank you sect head." Mo Wuji thanked him once again and sat down.
Shi Jun saw that Mo Wuji had single-handedly turned the situation around, and his admiration for Mo Wuji grew. He lowered his voice and whispered into Mo Wuji's ear, "The one who spoke up for you just now was our Formless Blade Sect's number one pill refiner, Tier 4 Earth Pill Refiner Yan Qianyin. This time, Pill Master Yan will be representing the Formless Blade Sect in the Five Elements Desolate Domain Pill Competition. "
Mo Wuji had long heard that Pill Master Yan was an Earth Pill Refiner from Fei Bingzhu. He did not expect that her name would have the word 'Yin' in it. Thinking about Xia Ruoyin, who plotted against him, Mo Wuji was very sensitive to this word.
"Alright, since all the pill refiners are ready, let's begin." Gu Ran did not want to waste any more time on Mo Wuji's words, and changed the topic.
Following Gu Ran's words, the five large pill furnaces were carried to the centre of the hall.
(That's all for today's update. Good night friends. Mo Wuji's portrait has received a lot of feedback, and Ol 'Five will send these feedback back to the artist, asking him to make some changes. Thank you, friends. Finally, please continue to ask for votes!)
