The next day, Zhang Yan came to the Floating Heavenly Palace again. The child had already received his orders, so when he saw him, he led him to the side hall from yesterday.
Zhang Yan walked into the inner room and saw Sect Leader Qin sitting on the jade platform with his eyes closed and a horsetail whisk in his hand. He immediately went forward to greet him.
Sect Leader Qin opened his eyes and looked at him. He asked gently, "Zhang Yan, have you seen what's written in that jade scroll?"
Zhang Yan replied, "Disciple has already seen it. Many of the doubts in my heart have been resolved."
Sect Leader Qin smiled and said, "I believe you already know what to do, so I won't say much. I've called you here today for another matter. Now that you've reached the third stage of Yuanying cultivation, you can ask a powerful practitioner in the sect to build an Essence Hut to protect your physical body. Do you have anyone you like?"
Zhang Yan pondered for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "Can the disciple choose?"
Sect Leader Qin nodded and said, "Of course."
Zhang Yan raised his hand and bowed. He asked, "Then can disciple trouble Sect Leader Zhenren to do it?"
Sect Leader Qin looked at him deeply and smiled. "It's not impossible, but have you really made up your mind?"
When a powerful practitioner forged a Host Artifact for their disciple, it was sowing good karma between them. Compared to becoming a disciple, it was only slightly inferior.
If Zhang Yan could ask Meng Zhen or Sun Zhenren to build an Essence Hut for him, they would definitely treat him like a nephew.
However, as the sect leader, Qin Mobai had to be impartial in his actions. It was not convenient for him to show himself for some matters, so it would be more beneficial for him to choose a disciple.
Zhang Yan's attitude was firm. He said, "Disciple has already made up my mind."
Sect Leader Qin nodded slowly and said, "This item can be forged in about half a year's time. You just need to go back and wait for news."
Zhang Yan said, "Disciple has a matter that I would like to seek Sect Leader's approval on."
Sect Leader Qin said amiably, "Go ahead."
"When I was in Dongsheng Continent, I accepted a disciple who is now guarding the lower house of the sect. Because I can't teach him all the time, I want to ask Sect Leader to grant me the Cloud Thousand Snatches Sword Manual and pass it on to him."
Sect Leader Qin thought for a while. He said, "I know a thing or two about Dongsheng's situation. Your disciple is guarding the outer continent alone. He doesn't have anyone from the same sect to help him, nor does he have a master to rely on. It's really not easy. I can approve your proposal. Bestow him with the title of a true disciple and let him cultivate in peace in the Dong Sheng Continent. Just take good care of the Lower House. "
I will bestow him a true disciple title and let him cultivate in peace in Dongsheng Dongsheng Continent.
Yincang Pai's' Five Gong Three Scriptures', if you don't have the guidance of the seniors in the school, even if you take the scripture, it will be useless; most likely you won't be able to master it. However, he only needed Sect Leader Qin's approval. As for how to cultivate, he could ask Ning Chongxuan for it.
Sect Leader Qin waved his horsetail whisk, and a letter flew down. He said, "This is my handwriting. With this, you will be able to see Sect Leader Yue."
Zhang Yan took the letter. He bowed and left the Floating Celestial Palace, returning to Zhao You Heavenly Lake.
When he returned, Mirror Spirit Zhang Jing came to report, "Master, Sect Leader Yan from Blue Feather Pavilion has come to visit. He is waiting in front of the hall. Do you want to see him?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "News travels fast. He is after all a sect leader. Since he is here, I should meet him. "
He flicked his sleeves and opened the array door. He stepped in and when he came out, he was already in the main hall.
The three of them had actually arrived at Zhao You Heavenly Lake three days ago. However, when they heard that there seemed to be a competition for the ten first seats in Qincang, they were shocked. As they didn't know what was going on, they were afraid that they would be involved. Thus, they just watched from the outside.
When the sect heard that Zhang Yan had already become one of the top ten disciples in the sect, he was pleasantly surprised. He immediately decided to take advantage of the fact that the news had not yet spread to pay a visit.
When they saw Zhang Yan coming out, the three of them hurriedly stood up and bowed. Yan Qing lowered her head and said, "Sorry for disturbing your cultivation."
She had cultivated for close to six hundred years and barely passed the test to achieve Yuanying. She was originally a little happy, but compared to Zhang Yan, she felt inferior.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I already know why Sect Leader Yan is here. You can go back and tell the sects that you are on good terms with. Since I have taken the position of the ten first seats, I won't abandon the sects. The disciples who were stationed previously will still be stationed at the sects. I hope that all of you will work together to fight against the Devil Tribulation."
Yan Qing was delighted and thanked him repeatedly.
She had been the Sect Leader for so many years and was experienced in the ways of the world. Since she had received the confirmation and saw that Zhang Yan had no intention of accompanying the guests, she took her leave.
When she reached the door, Yan Xiaoyang saw that his mother was deep in thought, as if she was thinking about a difficult matter. He couldn't help but ask, "What is mother thinking about? Since Zhenren Zhang has already agreed, is there anything you are unhappy about? "
Yan Qing sighed, "I am thinking that since Zhenren Zhang has returned, it is good to send the disciples to guard again. However, the position of the first seat will be handed over to a fellow sect sooner or later. I am afraid that there will be a change of heart and it will not be very stable."
When Yan Xiaoyang heard this, he agreed. With Zhang Yan around, there should be no problems for the next hundred years. However, once he went to the Du Zhen Hall, the person who took over his position might not support their small sect. He also frowned and said, "This matter really has to be considered. What does mother think we should do?"
Yan Qing said, "I heard that Zhenren Zhang has a fifth disciple, Jiang Zheng, who is married to Dan Huizhen of Pengyuan Sect. The Devil's Doctrine has been wreaking havoc on the sea for many years. Pengyuan Sect is powerless to fight back and can only guard behind closed doors. However, after Zhenren Zhang returned from the foreign continent, the first thing he did was to go to Pengyuan Sect to help his disciple. If I betroth your sister to Zhenren Zhang's disciple …"
When Yan Xiaoyang heard this, he jumped up and shouted excitedly, "What? Betroth my sister to someone else?"
Yan Qing said unhappily, "What are you shouting for?"
Yan Xiaoyang's face turned red. There was an inexplicable feeling in his heart. It was as if he was humiliated and unwilling. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will never agree to betroth my sister to someone else."
Yan Qing frowned and said, "I will make the decisions in the pavilion. When is it your turn to speak?"
Yan Xiyue didn't object. She only said quietly, "Since Mother says so, does that mean you already have a suitable candidate?"
Yan Qing picked up her daughter's hand and patted it. "Zhenren Zhang's sixth disciple, Han Zuocheng, also has Core Transformation cultivation. If this matter succeeds, you won't be wronged."
Yan Xiyue thought carefully and said, "Mother's words are reasonable. I'm just afraid that the Clear Nether Sect will look down on us for coming from a small sect."
Yan Qing smiled and said, "If I didn't have confidence, why would I speak carelessly? I have long since inquired. Zhenren Zhang's sixth disciple likes to tame strange beasts and birds to fight. He has already reached the point of obsession and has raised many strange beasts in his cave abode. The founding ancestor of Blue Feather Pavilion was originally a disciple of the South Flower Sect. This beast taming and demon subduing art is authentic. We can present this art as a dowry. "
Yan Xiyue nodded lightly and said, "I will follow Mother's decision."
Yan Xiaoyang stared blankly and said with some disbelief, "Sister, are you really going to agree?"
Yan Xiyue said seriously, "Little brother, if Blue Feather Pavilion can form a relationship with Zhang Yan, it will be the same as forming a good relationship with the Clear Nether Sect. Do you understand?"
Yan Qing praised, "Yue 'er is still the most reasonable."
And now, the Clear Nether Heavenly Lake lineage. Not counting Zhang Yan, two of his disciples had achieved Yuanying. The second disciple had been in seclusion for decades and was rumored to have a chance of breaking through. It was hard to guarantee that another Spiritual Master would appear. If they didn't form a relationship before other sects could react … There might not be such an opportunity in the future.
At this moment, in the depths of the cave abode, the Clear Nether Sect disciple Jin Honglian was sitting cross-legged with his head propped up on his hand, dozing off on a prayer mat. When he heard the ringing of a bell, he couldn't help but shiver and look up. Seeing Han Zuocheng walk in with a white rhinoceros, his eyes widened and he said in shock, "Master, this white rhinoceros's cage and saddle are neat, it must have an original owner. Could it be that Master brought it here in passing?"
Han Zuocheng said unhappily, "Don't talk nonsense, how can Master be that kind of person? This white rhinoceros is Tao Zhenren's mount, temporarily left with your grandmaster. It's just that your grandmaster saw that I'm good at raising strange beasts, so he gave it to me to look after. "
Jin Honglian chuckled, revealing an expression of understanding.
Han Zuocheng was a casual person and usually didn't have the dignity of a teacher. He never forced his disciples to do anything, so the relationship between master and disciple was quite harmonious and they often joked around.
Han Zuocheng took off the white rhinoceros's bridle. Suddenly, he smelled alcohol and asked in surprise, "Do you like to drink?"
The white rhinoceros shook its body and shouted, "You have some knowledge, kid. Five vats of wine every day, not a drop less. Not a single drop less. Otherwise, your Immortal's Cave might not be safe! "
Han Zuocheng's expression was a little strange. He glanced at the pool in the cave and shook his head, "Another drunkard." He turned around and ordered Jin Honglian, "Go to my storehouse and bring five vats of fine wine over."
Jin Honglian had followed him for a long time and had seen all kinds of monsters with strange tempers, so he was already used to it. He agreed and went to the back of the cave.
At this time, a maidservant came in to report, "Master, Daoist Shen has come to visit."
Han Zuocheng's expression brightened and he said loudly, "Invite him in quickly."
Not long after, Shen Dong walked in and cupped his hands, "Daoist Brother Han greets me."
Han Zuocheng smiled, "No need to be so polite. Come, come, come, sit first. Yesterday, I was summoned by eldest senior sister to have my cultivation checked and couldn't enjoy myself to my heart's content. Today, you have to tell me about that demon-refining technique again."
Shen Dong smiled and sat down, saying, "I wouldn't dare to disobey."
Although he was arrogant, he also knew that in order to establish a foothold here, he had to build a good relationship with the Zhao You lineage.
And under Zhang Yan, Liu Yanyi and Wei Zihong were both Yuanying cultivators, so he felt it was difficult to interact with them. Tian Kun was always in seclusion and didn't go out at all, so he couldn't even see him. The Wang sisters were female cultivators, so he couldn't get too close to them.
But Han Zuocheng had the same level of cultivation as him, and he liked rare and strange things. Coincidentally, there were many records in the Spirit Returning Sect, and there was even a technique of using a pot to raise a demon. So he deliberately got close to him, and after a few days, he became familiar with him.
The two of them chatted for several hours, and Han Zuocheng was extremely excited, saying, "Senior doesn't have a cave abode yet, right? If you don't mind, you don't have to leave today. Stay in my cave abode and talk through the night, okay?"
Shen Dong didn't mind and agreed.
Han Zuocheng was even happier. He ordered his servants to prepare a banquet, and they chatted while drinking. After chatting for a while, Shen Dong found a chance and said, "I have a small matter that I need senior's help with."
Han Zuocheng had been in the sect for more than a hundred years, but there were very few people he was on good terms with. It was rare for him to meet someone he could talk to, so he said, "Junior, please speak. If I can help, I won't refuse!"
Shen Dong said in a deep voice, "The techniques and techniques that I practice require me to fight and kill with others in order to comprehend them. It's just that I don't know the geography of the Donghua Continent, so I want to ask senior for a map so that I can go out and slay demons!"
