"I haven't been to Chen Xing for a long time, but I know something about it. If there is a super genius like you, how could we not have received any news?" The First Elder looked into Jiang Fei's eyes and said. His eyes were like lightning, as if he wanted to see through Jiang Fei's mind.
"Hehe …" Jiang Fei smiled. At the same time, he let out a sigh of relief. He really thought that he had given himself away. Now, it seemed that the Great Elder was just trying to trick him.
"Why are you laughing?" The First Elder frowned and asked. The Martial Hero Palace wanted to have a young master like Jiang Fei, but Jiang Fei's origin was too strange, so he had to be more cautious.
"I'm laughing at the impermanence of the world …" Jiang Fei pretended to sigh. Then, the lie came out of his mouth.
"First Elder, you don't know me. Not only you and the Martial Hero Palace don't know me, I'm afraid there are very few people in Chen Xing who know me. If you went to Chen Xing three years ago, I was just an outer disciple of the Green Wood Cliff, and I was not even qualified to enter the library …" Jiang Fei said, deliberately showing an unwilling look.
Then he continued, "But who would have thought that the world is unpredictable? I unexpectedly found a treasure in the Greenwood Forest. This thing seemed to be the remains of some kind of fierce beast. It was more than a hundred meters long and looked like a python. However, it had horns on its head and legs under its abdomen. Its whole body was covered with silver scales. Although it was already dead, its eyes were shining with emerald light!"
"It's impossible!" The First Elder suddenly rushed to Jiang Fei, with his eyes shining with excitement.
"Yes, I also thought it was impossible at that time. How could there be such a strange ferocious beast in this world? But that thing did appear in front of me." Jiang Fei ignored the First Elder's excitement and continued to say, "The body of the ferocious beast was too big. I wanted to go back and report it to the elders, but I was afraid that the treasure would be taken by others. So I wanted to cut off its head and take it away."
"You chopped off its head?" the Great Elder asked excitedly.
"No, I was just a small fry in the Heart Stage. Even if the Direbeast was dead, I wouldn't be able to break its scales …" Jiang Fei shook his head.
"That's right … If you can cut off its head, you'll be seeing a ghost!" The Great Elder had clearly been brought into Jiang Fei's story.
"However, I found a Flying Sword next to the Direbeast's carcass. This Flying Sword is extremely sharp. It's definitely not an ordinary item," Jiang Fei added.
"Flying sword?" The First Elder was clearly a little entranced at this moment. Not only him, even Zhou Tong beside him was listening attentively.
"Yeah. When I looked at the flying sword, I saw an arm on the hilt of the flying sword. However, there's only one arm left. As for the owner of the arm, I don't know if he's dead or alive," Jiang Fei said.
"It's really hard to believe. Even if that person is dead, he's definitely a Divine Transcendence expert!" The Great Elder sighed.
"Then, I got that Flying Sword. I wanted to use it to cut off the Direbeast's head. Unfortunately, I'm still too weak. After trying for a long time, I still couldn't do it." Jiang Fei shook his head as if he was very regretful.
"What happened next?" Zhou Tong asked subconsciously.
"After that, I got angry and stabbed the Direbeast's left eye with the sword. Although I couldn't break through the Direbeast's defense, the jade-like eye didn't have much defense. Blood suddenly gushed out and drenched me." Jiang Fei said.
"What happened next?" Zhou Tong asked again.
"Then I fainted. When I woke up, the Direbeast's carcass had already disappeared. However, my body also underwent a strange change. Since then, when I cultivated, it was as if I had divine help. My cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. In just two to three years, I've reached my current strength!" Jiang Fei said.
"Isn't this too exaggerated? In just two to three years, he went from the Heart Stage to the Crossing Calamity Stage? "Zhou Tong was so surprised that his eyeballs almost fell out.
"That's not surprising. He obtained the power of the Blue Eyes White Dragon. If it wasn't heaven-defying, the dragon would have died a terrible death!" The Great Elder sighed. He could not help but feel a burst of envy in his heart.
"It's settled!" Seeing the Great Elder's expression, Jiang Fei knew that he had deceived him. After all, he did not make up the story just now. It was based on the ancient records that he had read on Mars.
When Jiang Fei and the others had first arrived in the Five Worlds, they urgently needed to supplement their relevant knowledge. Therefore, they had read a lot of historical documents and myths and legends. Many of the records were too ancient, so people like Zhou Tong who were not knowledgeable enough had never heard of them.
For example, the Blue Eyes White Dragon that Jiang Fei had just described was the Holy Beast that guarded the Chen Star in the ancient legends of the Five Worlds. Its strength was also at the peak of the True Immortal Stage. In Jiang Fei's words, it was the most powerful kind of Hermit.
Therefore, according to Jiang Fei's description, the Great Elder naturally believed that Jiang Fei had obtained the power of the Blue Eyes White Dragon by chance. Then, it was easy to explain how he could have such a cultivation at such a young age.
Moreover, this way, an expert like Jiang Fei, who had a clean background and did not have too many connections with any organizations or sects, was even rarer for the Martial Heroic Palace. After all, Jiang Fei did not have any worries. Therefore, he had a stronger sense of belonging to the Martial Heroic Palace and was wholeheartedly loyal to the Martial Heroic Palace.
"Great Elder, do you have any other questions?" Jiang Fei asked the Great Elder with a smile.
"That's all!" The Great Elder waved his hand. Ever since he knew that Jiang Fei had obtained the power of the Blue Eyes White Dragon, he had already made up his mind to keep Jiang Fei. Even if he had to take some risks, he would not hesitate.
Although the Martial Heroic Palace was known as the leader of the upright sects, they were also currently in danger. Otherwise, why would the dignified Martial Heroic Palace hide underground? However, if an expert like Jiang Fei joined them, the future of the Martial Heroic Palace would be bright. Once this expert who had grasped the power of the Blue Eyes White Dragon really grew up, under his protection, the Martial Heroic Palace would be able to openly appear in Zhenxing. The Heart Moon Sect and the Four Great Families would no longer pose a threat to them.
"Then, can we join the Martial Heroic Palace?" Jiang Fei asked.
"Of course!" The Great Elder nodded. Then, he pondered for a moment and continued to speak to Jiang Fei, "However, with your strength, I'm afraid that no one in the Martial Heroic Palace would dare to teach you. If you want to be apprenticed to a master, I'm afraid you will have to wait until next spring. At that time, the True Immortal Elders would also come out of seclusion. Only they are qualified to teach a genius like you."
"Really? I can get the guidance of a True Immortal? That's great! Thank you, Great Elder! " Jiang Fei pretended to be excited. In fact, he was not interested in those so-called True Immortals at all. After the brain development, he already had his own path of advancement. He did not need anyone's guidance at all. Jiang Fei only cared about staying in the Martial Heroic Palace and completing his own tasks.
