In the Rising Sun City's' Morning Sun 'hotel, a group of Mythical Flame Palace disciples came in pairs to pay their respects, directly exposing Yi Tian's identity. The surrounding low-level cultivators on the top floor of the hotel were so frightened that they were cowering on the ground, not daring to move. As for the Xunyang Qiu family's Qiu Lu, who had previously mocked Xia Minyu, his face was ashen as he bit his lips. Two streams of blood seeped out from the corners of his mouth.
The rise of the Xunyang Xia family was unstoppable. For example, Xia Minyu had become a personal disciple of the Li Fire Sect's Sect Master. His future cultivation level was naturally limitless. At the very least, reaching the Spirit Severing stage would not be a problem. If his talent and temperament were compatible, it would not be difficult for him to cultivate to the Body Fusion stage under the guidance of the Li Fire Sect's Sect Master.
And in the entire Xunyang region, the person with the highest cultivation level was not even comparable to the Rising Sun City's Patrol Inspector Niu Renjie. At this moment, Qiu Lu could not help but turn his gaze to his two siblings. The most direct way to befriend Xia Minyu was to marry him. However, it was impossible for Xia Minyu to do so, but the other peers in his family were excellent candidates. It seemed like Xia Minyu was rather well-liked in his family. He still had a few siblings who were on good terms with him.
Of course, Xia Minyu naturally did not know the plans of his fellow countrymen behind him. At this moment, after his ecstasy, he had gradually calmed down. After paying his respects, he stood up and stood beside Yi Tian to serve him. When he paid his respects to his master, he had done it in front of everyone in the hotel. They could all be used as witnesses. Furthermore, it seemed like his master was deliberately suppressing him. If not, why would someone like Niu Renjie personally remove him from the list of candidates?
Xia Minyu turned his head and his gaze met with Niu Renjie's. At this moment, Niu Renjie was smiling obsequiously as he sent a voice transmission, "Young Martial Uncle, you are a magnanimous person. Don't hold a grudge. Everything was arranged by the Sect Master. I was just following orders."
Although Niu Renjie's cultivation level was higher than Xia Minyu's by two levels, he knew that someone favored by the Sect Master was not simple. He believed that it wouldn't be long before Xia Minyu's cultivation would skyrocket. In less than three to five hundred years, Xia Minyu would surpass him. After a thousand years, he could only look up to Xia Minyu.
As for the leader, Jiang Shaobai, a glint flashed across his eyes. Since the Sect Master had graced Sunrise City with his presence and accepted a new disciple, as the City Lord, he had to come and bask in the glory. In the future, when his junior apprentice brother ascended to the Lifire Palace, Jiang Shaobai would surely remember the segment where he took Jiang Shaobai as his master back then. As long as Jiang Shaobai was slightly biased towards him, he believed that his position in the Lifire Palace would be even more stable. Right now, although Xia Minyu's wings weren't fully grown yet, his future accomplishments were boundless.
Yi Tian naturally took note of the reactions of these people in front of him, and he found it funny. However, this was also human nature. Everyone had their own selfish motives.
After three breaths, he said faintly, "This time, Sunrise City's selection is short of a quota. Bring up the 101st candidate and give him the qualification to enter the city."
Duan Weiqi hurriedly took a step forward and said, "Yes, Sect Master. The 101st candidate is none other than Qiu Lu of the Qiu Clan from Xunyang City."
So it was him. Xia Minyu's gaze swept over and he turned his head to look at Qiu Lu who was kneeling on the ground. He didn't know what to feel in his heart.
Duan Weiqi spoke again, "Disciple followed Sect Master's orders and increased the difficulty of the test by three times. I didn't expect that he would still be unable to be eliminated. Sect Master, please punish disciple for dereliction of duty."
As the sound of his voice faded, the faces of everyone present were filled with fear. This was especially so for Xia Minyu who had an aggrieved expression on his face. He turned his head to look at his master but he didn't dare to casually ask.
After three breaths, Yi Tian waved his hand and said, "Enough, there's no need to punish you for dereliction of duty. It's my fault for not planning it properly. Originally, I wanted to test the stability of Xia Minyu's Dao Heart after he suffered from depression. However, it was a wonderful move for you to eliminate him. Only after experiencing great ups and downs can one's Dao Heart be tested for its true essence. "
Hearing this, everyone's face lit up, especially Niu Renjie. At this moment, he seemed to have let out a sigh of relief. After all, he was the one playing the role of the good guy.
After saying that, Yi Tian waved his hand. Suddenly, a seven-colored light appeared and enveloped him and Xia Minyu's figure before disappearing into thin air.
How could everyone not know that the Sect Master had already left? As the person in charge, Jiang Shaobai adjusted his expression and said to everyone behind him, "Don't spread what happened today. I know the Sect Master's temper the best. Don't reveal Junior Brother's background. Also, the replacement candidates will be handled according to the Sect Master's instructions. I'll leave this matter to you all. "
Duan Weiqi hurriedly cupped his hands and replied, "Disciple understands. City Lord, please rest assured that Martial Uncle's matter will be handled properly."
Jiang Shaobai nodded, then he directly used an escape technique and flew toward the City Lord's Mansion. After he left, Duan Weiqi let out a sigh of relief. He then lowered his head and secretly transmitted his voice to Niu Renjie and the others. The latter received the order and exchanged glances with the people behind him. They already knew how to deal with the aftermath.
Half a day later, Yi Tian brought Xia Minyu to the Ancestral Hall in the Lihuo Palace to pay respects to the ancestors of the sect. After that, they returned to the main hall. After opening a soundproof barrier, Yi Tian slowly sat down on the main seat, then gestured for Xia Minyu to sit on the futon in front of him.
After sizing up Xia Minyu, Yi Tian faintly opened his mouth and said, "Minyu, I wonder how you feel about joining my sect today?"
"Many thanks for Master's guidance." Xia Minyu hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands.
"Sit down and talk." Yi Tian gestured.
Only then did Xia Minyu slowly sit down. Then, he said with a serious expression, "Today is really a day of ups and downs. For a moment, my mood fell to the bottom, but the next moment, it exploded again."
"You're still too young, but this kind of cultivation of the Dao Heart is a little too much for you. Fortunately, you didn't let me down and successfully passed," Yi Tian said with a smile.
"Many thanks for Master's guidance. In the future, Minyu will cultivate diligently. I will definitely not shame Master," Xia Minyu replied respectfully.
"That's good. You also drank a lot of immortal peach wine. Do you know how much that thing is worth?" Yi Tian joked.
Xia Minyu's expression suddenly changed. He replied embarrassedly, "Forgive me for being ignorant. I don't know how valuable the immortal peach wine is, but I think this immortal peach wine must be very valuable. Moreover, for a cultivator like me to drink it without any worries, it must be very rare."
"Well said." Yi Tian said angrily, "You're lucky. The raw materials used for this immortal peach wine are the remnants of the Immortal World. It's just that I mixed it with 100 portions of spring water. After drinking this wine, it has quietly cleansed your meridians and raised your aptitude by more than two levels. I think as long as you cultivate diligently, you will be able to form your core in less than 50 years. Moreover, your core will definitely be among the top three grades. "
Hearing this, Xia Minyu hurriedly stood up and bowed to him again. He said, "Many thanks for Master's guidance."
