On the Sealed Sword Sect's transmission formation, a white light flashed. Then a person appeared. It was a monk, but his skin was as dark as iron. He looked very intimidating. However, the Sealed Sword Sect's disciple was stunned when he saw the monk. Then he quickly took two steps forward and bowed, "Grandmaster, may I ask if Grandmaster is a monk from the Iron Buddha Temple?"
Zhao Hai looked at the Sealed Sword Sect's disciple and smiled, "Fellow Daoist, I'm Jing Hai from the Iron Buddha Temple. Nice to meet you."
The Sealed Sword Sect's disciple quickly said, "So it really is a monk from the Iron Buddha Temple. Please follow me."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Amitabha. Fellow Daoist, please." Then he followed the Sealed Sword Sect's disciple to a room next to the transmission formation. There were several other Sealed Sword Sect's disciples in the room. When they saw Zhao Hai, they immediately recognized Zhao Hai's identity. Because of his skin color, they quickly stood up and bowed to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai also returned the gesture.
At this time, the disciple who led Zhao Hai to the room turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Monk, I'm an outer disciple of the Sealed Sword Sect. My name is Yu Hai. Please show me your identity medallion."
Zhao Hai didn't refuse. He took out his identity medallion and handed it over to the disciple. When the disciple saw Zhao Hai's identity medallion, his eyes went wide. He quickly handed the medallion back to Zhao Hai and said, "I didn't know that Senior Brother Jing Hai would come. Please forgive me."
Zhao Hai received the identity medallion and smiled, "There's no need to be so polite. You can just call me Jing Hai."
Yu Hai quickly said, "Senior Brother Jing Hai is too polite. Senior Brother is a Core Disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. I should call you Senior Brother. May I know why Senior Brother came to the Sealed Sword Sect? Is there anything important? "
When the other disciples of the Sealed Sword Sect heard that Zhao Hai was a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. They were all too clear about what a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple represented. It absolutely represented the same status as a core disciple of their sect. This was really too shocking. They didn't think that this tall and sturdy monk would actually be a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple.
The relationship between the Iron Buddha Temple and the Sealed Sword Sect had always been good. Otherwise, Zhao Hai wouldn't have joined the Iron Buddha Temple. Therefore, the core disciples of the Iron Buddha Temple would also receive preferential treatment in the Sealed Sword Sect.
When Zhao Hai heard the disciples of the Sealed Sword Sect, he couldn't help but smile faintly and said, "Oh, it's nothing. This time, I came for a private matter. Right, I want to ask you, is the Gathering of Monks in the city still around?"
These words made the people of the Sealed Sword Sect stare blankly. They didn't understand why the Iron Buddha Temple would ask about the Gathering of Monks. Yu Hai quickly replied, "They're still around. The Gathering of Monks has some relations with our Sealed Sword Sect. Because of the previous beast attack, they made a great contribution. Therefore, they can be considered as an outer circle of our Sealed Sword Sect. May I ask why Senior Brother is looking for them? "
Zhao Hai shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing. Haha, speaking of which, my relationship with the Gathering of Monks isn't ordinary. During the beast attack, I was a member of the Gathering of Monks. Because of my good performance, I was accepted as a disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. Now that I think about it, I haven't been back for several years."
When Yu Hai heard Zhao Hai, he stared blankly for a moment. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Senior Brother, you're actually a disciple of the Gathering of Monks? You're a legend among the Rogue Cultivators of our Sealed Sword City."
When Zhao Hai heard this, he stared blankly for a moment. Then he asked, "Oh? I'm a legend? I really didn't know about this. Can you tell me more? "
Yu Hai quickly replied, "Of course you can. Senior Brother, you're a rogue cultivator who was accepted as a disciple by a great sect. Now, whenever the rogue cultivators in the city talk about you, they would all look at you with admiration. They all want to be like you and perform well so that they can be accepted by a great sect in the future." Yu Hai quickly replied, "Of course you can.
When Zhao Hai heard Yu Haiyi, he couldn't help but smile and said, "That's good. Hehe, I really need to thank the Sealed Sword Sect. If it weren't for them, then I wouldn't have been able to join the Iron Buddha Temple, let alone become a core disciple." Yu Haiyi smiled and said, "You're right.
Yu Hai looked at Zhao Hai with a face full of respect and said, "This is also what I didn't expect. I really didn't expect Senior Brother to be a Core Disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. I remember that it hasn't been three years since you joined the Iron Buddha Temple. I really didn't expect Senior Brother's talent to be this good. "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "The Iron Buddha Temple is a Body Cultivator Sect. They don't really care about talent. What the Iron Buddha Temple cares about is perseverance. Haha, let's not talk about this. I'm relieved to know that the monks are fine. I want to see them, is that alright?"
Yu Hai hurriedly said, "Of course, that's not a problem. But Senior Brother, you should wait a bit. You should know that with your status, we can't not report it to the Sealing Sword Sect. Therefore, the sect already knows about this matter. Senior Brother, you should know that with your status, there's no way the sect wouldn't pay attention to you. I think you should wait a bit before meeting the monks."
When Zhao Hai heard Yu Hai, he could only nod. He knew that Yu Hai was telling the truth. He was a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. How could the Sealing Sword Sect not pay attention to him? One must know that a core disciple of a sect would become a Sect Master or an Elder in the future. Such a status couldn't be ignored.
Sure enough, as soon as Yuhai's voice fell, footsteps were heard outside the door. Then a 40 year old Cultivator came in. This Cultivator wore a scholar's robe and looked very handsome. However, because of his age, his handsomeness was different from the average Cultivator. His handsomeness wasn't the kind of handsomeness that looked threatening. Instead, it was a wise and farsighted handsomeness that came with the passage of time.
Upon seeing this Cultivator, the disciples of the Sealed Sword Sect immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Martial Uncle."
The Cultivator nodded. Then he turned to Zhao Hai and smiled, "Calm Sea Zen Master, this old Duan Shuxin greets you."
Zhao Hai hastily said, "So it turns out to be Martial Uncle Tie Suo Heng. Jing Hai pays his respects. I don't deserve to be called Martial Uncle or Zen Master. Just call me Jing Hai.
Duan Shuxin was very happy to hear Zhao Hai call him by his nickname. He smiled and said, "I didn't think that my name would spread to the Iron Buddha Temple. I'm ashamed. Martial Nephew Jing Hai, there's no need to be so polite. I've also heard of your great name. Speaking of which, our Sealed Sword Sect owes you a great debt."
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Martial Uncle is too kind. I don't deserve such praise."
Duan Shuxin smiled and said, "You deserve it, you deserve it. Alright, this isn't the place to talk. It won't be too late to talk about it in the sect. Listen up, you're not allowed to speak of Jing Hai's visit to the Sealed Sword Sect. Just pretend that nothing happened today.
Do you understand? "Yu Hai and the others were puzzled by Duan Shuxin's words. However, they still nodded. It wasn't a big deal if they weren't allowed to talk about it.
Duan Shuxin led Zhao Hai out of the room. Outside the room was a beast carriage. The beast pulling the carriage was a white tiger. The tiger was about three meters tall and five meters long. It was very majestic, one could see that its strength wasn't ordinary. But now, it could only pull the carriage for the Sealed Sword Sect. This showed how strong the Sealed Sword Sect was.
Duan Shuxin led Zhao Hai into the carriage. The interior of the carriage was very spacious. Not only could the two of them sit facing each other, there was also a table in the middle. On the table was a tea set and a pot of hot water beside it.
Duan Shuxin poured hot water into the teapot before pouring a cup of hot tea for Zhao Hai. Then he said in a deep voice, "It wasn't convenient for me to tell the other disciples when we were inside. Jing Hai, our Sealed Sword Sect is indebted to you. You were the one who solved Ren Long's problem, right? I've heard about it. To be honest, you really helped us vent our anger. "
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Martial Uncle is too polite. I saw the mission and felt that it was very suitable for me, so I did it. I don't deserve such praise."
Duan Shuxin smiled and said, "No matter what your purpose was, you were the one who did it. Therefore, we still have to thank you. May I know why you came to the Sealed Sword Sect this time?"
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Oh, there's really nothing to do this time. I just came out of seclusion, so I wanted to take a walk. I was born in Sealed Sword City, and I have a lot of connections with the Monks. Therefore, I wanted to come back and take a look, nothing else."
Duan Shuxin nodded and said, "So that's it. Then there's nothing else. I'll arrange a place for you to stay in the Sealed Sword Sect. If you need anything, just tell me. But I won't arrange any banquets or anything like that. Otherwise, you would be exposed, which wouldn't do you any good. The Eight Sword Sect is now preparing to take revenge on you. Although they don't know that you were the one who did it, we still have to be careful."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I should do. Thank you, Martial Uncle."
Duan Shuxin waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be so polite. With the relationship between our two sects, this is what I should do. Not to mention that you've helped the Sealed Sword Sect. Strictly speaking, you're someone who came out of the Sealed Sword City. No matter how you look at it, I should help you."
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Thank you, Martial Uncle. This time, I came to the Sealing Sword Sect because of another matter. When I was in Sealing Sword City, I recognized an adopted son. His parents are still in Sealing Sword City, but they are Rogue Cultivators. Moreover, they don't live in Sealing Sword City. They are in a small town near the Martial King Mountain where they opened a tavern to make a living. However, my adopted son was sent to another place to study, so he isn't at home right now. This time, I want to see the couple and then see my adopted son." Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "
I want to see my foster son. "Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Duan Shuxin nodded and said," So there's such a thing. That's easy. How about you let the couple come back to the city? I'll find a place for them to run a tavern there. Living in the city is safer than living outside. What do you think? "
Zhao Hai thought for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Thank you, Martial Uncle. Then I'll take them to see you after they move back to the city."
Duan Shuxin nodded and said in a deep voice, "It's just a piece of cake. The Sect Master knows that you're here. He wanted to see you at first, but it would be too noisy if he made a move. Therefore, he said that he had sensed your presence this time and that it wouldn't be too late to meet you in the future. It wouldn't be worth it if you were to be in danger because of this meeting."
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "I've troubled the Sect Master. Martial Uncle, please send my regards to the Sect Master. I just came to Sealed Sword City to see some old friends. I'm sorry to disturb you."
Duan Shuxin smiled and said, "It's fine, we've arrived. Let's go down." Zhao Hai nodded, then he followed Duan Shuxin out of the carriage. They were in a separate courtyard inside the Sealing Sword Sect. In front of the courtyard were two servants. Duan Shuxin pointed at the two servants and said, "These two are your servants. If you have any problems, just tell them. If they can't solve it, then they will inform me. Go back and rest. If you have any requests, just tell them. I won't be accompanying you for dinner, just tell them what you want to eat."
Zhao Hai thanked Duan Shuxin. Then Duan Shuxin turned around and left. Zhao Hai followed the two servants into the courtyard. The courtyard wasn't small. In the middle of the courtyard was a large training ground. There were many tall and straight trees planted all around the courtyard. These trees were all Spear Trees, tall and straight. This made the courtyard look lively.
Inside the courtyard was a row of houses, about ten of them. Moreover, one could see that these houses were quite old. They looked very simple, but they didn't look shabby at all. On the contrary, these houses gave off a sense of history. One can see that this courtyard was used by the Sealed Sword Sect to entertain distinguished guests.
The two servants led Zhao Hai around the house. Sure enough, this house was used to entertain distinguished guests. Behind this row of houses was another row of houses. The front row of houses seemed to be occupied by people of high status. Of the ten houses, only three were bedrooms. The others were study rooms, living rooms, and meditation rooms. As for the rooms at the back, they were prepared for the attendants. The courtyard could accommodate about 50 people. But now, only Zhao Hai lived here. This kind of hospitality was really surprising.
From this, one could see how much importance the Sealed Sword Sect placed on him. It also showed how much power Zhao Hai had right now. In the Iron Buddha Temple, Zhao Hai was just an ordinary Core Disciple. But outside the Iron Buddha Temple, his status as a Core Disciple represented the entire Iron Buddha Temple. No Sect would dare to look down on him. Looking down on him was the same as looking down on the Iron Buddha Temple. Therefore, even if the relationship between the Sealed Sword Sect and the Iron Buddha Temple was ordinary, Zhao Hai could still enjoy this kind of treatment.
