The reason why Li Lin ascended the mountain this time, was to look for Zhu Yao to handle the entry procedures, and receive her identity tablet. Every single new disciple of Ancient Hill Sect, had to undergo a month's worth of Sect knowledge, which was equivalent to an induction training. Then, the various Mountains would choose a few disciples with good qualities to become Sect disciples. Those who were not chosen, would be assigned to the Outer Sect. After they built their Foundation, they would then enter the Inner Sect, but they might not be accepted as disciples by the Mountain Lord. Initially, Zhu Yao wanted to go as well, but her Spirit Vein was unique, so she did not have to go through this process, and was immediately accepted as a disciple, and a personal succeeding disciple at that.
Li Lin glanced at the divine imprint on Zhu Yao's forehead that only belonged to personal succeeding disciples, and could not help but feel envious in his heart. Usually, practitioners would only have a single personal succeeding disciple, unless the other party died, they would not accept another personal succeeding disciple. However, who asked her to have the Lightning Spirit Vein?
Because Zhu Yao did not know how to fly a sword, Li Lin had no choice but to take out that large leaf from before, and carried her all the way to the Main Mountain.
"Grand-martial aunt, this way please." Li Lin led Zhu Yao into a large hall, his attitude was so respectful that she felt a little embarrassed.
"You can just call me Zhu Yao." Being called grand-martial aunt by someone of the same age, she felt a little strange.
Li Lin simply smiled, and did not refute. However, he did not dare to directly agree either, and simply instructed a person who seemed to be the manager of the hall. The middle-aged man's expression instantly tensed up. From afar, he gave her a deep bow, and called out. "Grand-martial granduncle!"
Zhu Yao: "…"
"Grand-martial aunt, do not mind it. In the cultivation world, cultivation is respected. You becoming Sovereign Yu Yan's disciple, this sort of thing will become normal in the future." Li Lin comforted her a few words, and led her to a chair at the side to sit down. Then, he dismissed that uncle, and continued to explain to her. "The identity tablet of Jade Forest Mountain will require a period of time to be completed. Grand-martial aunt, please wait here for a moment."
Zhu Yao nodded. Sitting on the chair, she curiously sized up her surroundings. This should be the place where the sect's matters were handled, as there weren't many people here. Occasionally, one or two would enter, bow towards Li Lin, and then, walk towards a counter in the middle. Sometimes, they would take out something, hand it to the person at the counter, and then leave.
"This is where we hand in our missions." Seeing that she was interested, Li Lin pointed at the signboards hanging on the four walls and explained, "The sect will often give out some missions. As long as you have the ability, you can accept it. After completing the mission, you can exchange it for contribution points to exchange for the resources you need."
So this was a trade center. Zhu Yao was enlightened. She then saw people walking in and bowing towards Li Lin. Some called him senior-martial uncle, while others called him senior-martial granduncle. After calling out to her, he would curiously size up Zhu Yao at the side, yet, he did not question her.
Fortunately, Li Lin did not explain her identity to these people. Otherwise, it would be really incomprehensible to see a bunch of people of all ages calling her ancestor. However, Li Lin's status seemed to be quite high. He just didn't know which Perfected Being he was under. It would be best if he wasn't from Elixir Peak. Being blacklisted, he couldn't have fun with people from Elixir Peak. (--)!
"Martial Uncle Li!" Just as she was thinking, a person suddenly rushed in. He walked a little anxiously, as though he had rushed all the way here. Glancing at Zhu Yao, he leaned over and whispered a few words into Li Lin's ears. Li Lin, who was still calm earlier, had a solemn expression.
"Grand-martial uncle, something happened in Sword Mountain, do you think …"
"Go ahead, I will wait here." Zhu Yao waved her hands.
Li Lin hesitated for a moment, before instructing the disciples in the hall to have the manager bring me back later. Only then did he lead the youth who just came in out.
Zhu Yao waited for about half an hour, yet, she did not see the manager come out. It seemed like the identity jade tablet required a long time. Just as she was planning to walk around, the moment she stepped out of the door, a large group of familiar turnips walked towards her. Especially the round-faced little wimp who was walking at the very front with his little head lowered. Wasn't he Doctor Wang's son?
"It's you!" Little Wang Xuzhi saw Zhu Yao at the front as well. His eyes instantly shone, as he charged over like a cannonball. Zhu Yao opened her arms, intending to receive him. However, at the most crucial moment, the little turnip suddenly came to a halt. Staring at her with a burning gaze, his little lips flattened, and he began to reprimand aggressively. "Where did you run off to? I … I have been looking for you for a long time. I'm telling you, if you were lost, I … won't be looking for you! Hmph! "
Uh … Why did this child speak so incoherently? One moment, he said he had been looking for me for a long time, and the next, he said he wouldn't be looking for me. Zhu Yao awkwardly retracted her empty hands, and casually stroked little Wang Xuzhi's head. It seemed like this little wimp was still rather worried about me.
Looking at his little face which was about to turn into a steamed bun, and his eyes which looked as though they were about to tear up in the next second, Zhu Yao's heart instantly softened. Squatting down, she rubbed his little face. "Why are you crying? Aren't I back now? Why are you so worried about me? "
Wang Xuzhi was startled. In an instant, like a lit firecracker, he angrily said. "Who's worried about you? If not for the fact that you're going to marry me in the future, I wouldn't even care about you! My father said before, for you to suddenly leave like that, it's called not following the ways of a woman. "
Zhu Yao's hand paused, and then, she casually pinched his cheeks. Not following the ways of a woman your sister! As expected of a spoiled brat, he would tear the roof tiles if he was not beaten.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts …" Little wimp desperately tried to pull her hands down, but unfortunately, he did not succeed.
After Zhu Yao had her fill of pinching his cheeks, she then released his painfully red cheeks. Pointing to the little radishes who were currently lining up in front of the counter, she asked. "Why are you guys here?"
Little Wang held onto his own cheeks with both of his hands, and rubbed them. With a wronged expression, he replied. "Senior-martial brother Qin brought us here to collect our identity jade tablets."
He pointed to a youth who was currently directing the little children to line up.
So they were here to collect their identity cards as well. Zhu Yao was just about to ask them what they had been doing for the past two days. Just when Zhu Yao was about to ask them what they had been doing for the past two days, a commotion suddenly sounded among the little radishes.
A familiar-looking little radish was being pushed onto the ground, while another child with a slightly plump figure was currently riding on the little radish's body, waving his fists. Yet, the other children were anxiously watching at the side. Not a single one of them stepped forward to stop them. Even the youth who was leading the group earlier, had turned his face away as well, as though it was none of his business.
"What are you guys doing!?" Before Zhu Yao could even understand the situation, Little Wang, who was next to her, had already shouted out to stop them, successfully stopping the little fatty who was beating him up.
Little Wang angrily walked over, pointed to the little fatty, and asked. "Little fatty Zhao, why are you beating him up?"
The little fatty had an unconvinced look, yet, he still came down from the child who was beaten up. Pointing to the child who was already covered in dust, he said. "This brat dared to cut this old man's line, this old man is going to teach him a lesson!"
