"Chamber disciple?" Back then, she seemed to have heard that from the person who guided them here, however, she wasn't too clear about these details.
Seeing that she did not understand, Little Wang explained to her with a serious look. "I heard eldest senior-martial brother say that only chamber disciples are personally taught divine arts by their master. The rest of the Inner Sect disciples are taught by senior-martial brothers."
There's even such details! But, it was understandable. There were so many disciples in Ancient Hill Sect, other than the Outer Sect's Odd Job Disciples, the rest were split into the Six Mountains. The disciples in the Mountains were all under the tutelage of the Mountain Lord, and the number of disciples in each Mountain ranged from thousands to tens of thousands. If they were all taught by the Mountain Lord alone, wouldn't they be exhausted to death? If that was the case, his status as a chamber disciple was obvious.
"Not bad, little wimp, you're doing pretty well." As Zhu Yao praised him, she stroked his little head.
Little Wang became even more complacent, as he gave her a "I'll protect you in the future" look. His head was held high, like a proud little rooster. As he dodged her hand, he proudly continued to flaunt. "Let me tell you, I'm already at the third level of Essence. Even eldest senior-martial brother isn't as fast as me. Tell me, I'm amazing, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes. You're amazing, the most amazing little fellow." As expected, he was still a child. How could she reject his little eyes that were begging for attention and praise? After all, she was the one who brought him here. She suddenly felt as though she had a child who had just grown up.
Wang Xuzhi, however, felt a little embarrassed from her praises. With a red face, he scratched his head. "Then what about you? What level are you at?"
Zhu Yao was stuffed, and the corner of her lips twitched. She recalled that she had been in Jade Forest Mountain for almost a month. Forget about stepping into Essence, she did not even know what spiritual energy was! She could not even sense the spiritual energy her master had mentioned about guiding it into her body.
Could it be that she had really aged, and could not even compare to a little turnip? A deep sense of helplessness instantly filled her entire body, and she could not help but let out a long sigh.
Wang Xuzhi sensed her instantly depressed mood, and his sparkling eyes were instantly filled with worry. Pulling onto her hand, he hesitantly spoke up. "You … Don't be sad. Even if you haven't stepped into Essence, it's not a big deal. Hao Kai, who came in with us, had just sensed spiritual energy as well."
Uh, comparing her to a little wimp, was he really consoling her? Zhu Yao's mood became even worse.
Seeing that she wasn't happy at all, Wang Xuzhi scratched her head in annoyance. She spun around on the spot and continued, "Anyway … Anyway, you'll be very powerful very soon. If you really can't reach Qi Refinement, at worst … at worst, I … I'll support you! "
Puff ~ ~
This was the first time in Zhu Yao's twenty-odd years of life that a little radish head was saying that he would support her in such a righteous manner. Though this little wimp had always insisted that she was his wife because of the matter of her spanking his buttocks, she simply treated it as a joke. She was just pretending to be depressed to tease him. She didn't expect him to say that he wanted to support her in such a serious manner. She couldn't help but laugh at that serious little face.
"Don't laugh. I'm telling the truth. Don't you believe me?" Seeing her laugh getting louder and louder, Wang Xuzhi anxiously stomped her feet.
Zhu Yao squatted down, pulled the flustered and exasperated little radish into her embrace, and stroked his little head. This little wimp, he really made people laugh, and moved at the same time. Following his words, she heavily nodded her head. "I believe you, I believe you. Then I will wait for you to grow up and support me."
Little friend Wang heavily snorted, and only then did he calm down, obediently allowing her to hug him.
"Little junior-martial brother." Not far away, a person walked over. He looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, and his face was filled with smiles, looking rather amiable. Seeing the person in the courtyard, a hint of doubt surfaced in his heart. However, his feet did not stop as he walked in.
"Senior-martial brother Du." Wang Xuzhi fiercely squeezed out from Zhu Yao's embrace, and looked at the person with a pleasantly surprised expression. It seemed like this person was one of the Sect Master's chamber disciples as well.
"Little junior-martial brother, this junior-martial sister is?" The person lightly glanced at Zhu Yao.
"This is my wife …" Seeing that Little Wang had once again blurted out, Zhu Yao hurriedly covered his mouth with her sharp eyes and nimble hands. This little wimp's big mouth, she did not want the entire sect to have a rumor of her eating cradle grass spreading the next day.
"Hoho, I'm his elder sister. Blood sister! "
"So it's my elder sister." The person politely smiled. After sizing her up for a moment, she realized she was unable to see through her cultivation level. In a situation like this, either the other party had yet to learn how to absorb energy into her body, or her cultivation level was much higher than her own, hence, she was unable to see through her cultivation level. However, looking at her age, it seemed like she had entered the sect a long time ago. It seemed like it was the latter. Thick fog.
"This humble one is Du Yuanchen, a disciple of Reverend Zi Mo. I wonder which Reverend is this senior-martial sister's disciple?"
"My name is Zhu Yao, and I'm … a disciple of Talisman Mountain." In order to prevent others from calling her ancestor, she made up a small lie.
Du Yuanchen nodded, and did not pursue the matter any further. Turning his head, he said to Wang Xuzhi. "Little junior martial brother, it's almost time. Let's head over to master's place together."
Wang Xuzhi was startled for a moment. Master's place was unavoidable, but it had been a long time since she saw Zhu Yao as well. Feeling a little reluctant, she glanced at Zhu Yao with a troubled expression.
"Go on, it's about time for me to return as well. Let's head out together."
Only then did Little Wang feel satisfied, as he followed behind Du Yuanchen. From time to time, he would even sneak a glance at Zhu Yao, as though he was afraid that she would be lost. Occasionally, he would chat idly with her, and Du Yuanchen would interject a few sentences as well.
From their conversation, Zhu Yao understood that the number of chamber disciples in every Mountain was extremely rare. Only those with especially good aptitudes, would be taken in as chamber disciples by the Mountain Lord. Taking Sect Master Reverend Zi Mo for example, currently, there were only five disciples. Du Yuanchen was the fourth disciple, and had entered the sect for fifteen years. Currently, he was an Essence Paragon, and Little Wang was naturally the youngest junior-martial brother. Looking at Du Yuanchen's expression, it seemed like he really liked this junior-martial brother of his. With him protecting her, Zhu Yao felt a little more at ease.
Along the way, she met many Sword Mountain disciples, and they all bowed towards the two of them. It seemed like the status of chamber disciples was extremely high in the Sect. While Du Yuanchen and Little Wang seemed to have already gotten used to it, as they walked forward without looking sideways.
Little Wang, who had the heart of a child, had an extremely arrogant look on his face. He held a hundred and twenty percent admiration towards his own master, and along the way, he had been instilling in him the central idea of "master is very awesome, master is number one under the heavens".
Zhu Yao curled her lips, she could not bear to shatter his passion for chasing after his idol. She just did not know what kind of expression he would have if he knew that even his own master had to call her senior-martial aunt.
"So, it must be your master's fault, that's why you're not as amazing as me!" As though he had finally thought of a reasonable reason, Little Wang solemnly vowed to her. "Why don't you take my master as your master as well!? Master dotes on me a lot, he will definitely agree to it. "
The more Little Wang thought about it, the more he felt that what he said made sense. With a grab of his little hand, he was about to pull Zhu Yao towards his master's cave residence.
Just as Zhu Yao was about to stop him, a loud sound suddenly resounded. A black figure flashed past, and with a 'pa' sound, it fell in front of them, splattering blood all over the ground.
