As soon as Fan Lan said this, the Hall of Affairs fell into silence.
Xiang Chun stared blankly for a long time before he finally realized something. He couldn't help but stand up from behind the table with a look of surprise and uncertainty. "Really?"
Wang Gong narrowed his eyes. He looked at Xiang Chun and then at Fan Lan. "Junior Brother Fan, are you talking about Junior Brother Zhang Yu, the one who killed the God of Plague?
Fan Lan nodded vigorously. "Yes, it's Junior Brother Zhang!"
"Impossible!"
Xu Ying suddenly burst out with a shout, his eyes were bloodshot, "How many days has it been since Senior Apprentice Brother Xiang gave the secret seal to Zhang Yu? How could he have read the second chapter? How is that possible? Could he have gone to study the chapter? "
"Junior Brother Xu, be careful with your words!"
Xiang Chun looked at Xu Ying and said sternly, "How can you say such things?"
Xu Ying's face was red, and his emotions seemed to be unstable. He said, "Senior Brother, I'm not talking nonsense, but how long has Zhang Yu been cultivating? How long has it been since you gave him the secret chapter? How could he have read the second chapter so quickly? He's not … he's not a peerless talent! There are many people like him in Xuanfu! "
He pointed outside and said loudly, "That Bai Qingqing, Junior Brother Bai! He and Zhang Yu entered the Xuanfu to cultivate at the same time. Their talents are average, and Junior Brother Bai is even better. But how could this Zhang Yu's cultivation progress so quickly? There must be a problem here, a problem! "
That last sentence, he almost shouted it out. Although the servants outside the corridor couldn't hear what they were saying, they were also frightened. They thought that the people inside were quarreling.
Wang Gong looked at the two of them, and a faint sneer appeared on his face.
Xiang Chun pondered for a moment and said, "Although this seems a little unbelievable, who can say for sure when it comes to cultivation? As long as I have enough divine essence in Xuanxiu, it won't be difficult to find the profound principles. As for the rumor that he's a chaotic cultivator, don't mention it again. "
Xu Ying gritted his teeth. "I don't believe it! There must be something wrong here! I request to take a look at Zhang Yu's Daoist book! "
Xiang Chun frowned.
Wang Gong leisurely said, "Junior Brother Xu, if what Junior Brother Fan said is true, then Junior Brother Zhang is the same as you, a Xuanxiu who has seen the second chapter of the book. What right do you have to flip through his book? This involves the fundamental secrets of a cultivator. Even if you want to flip through it, only Xuan Shou has the qualifications to do so. It's not your turn yet, right? What's more, even if I give it to you, what can you tell? "
What kind of seal each Xuanxiu used, what kind of progress they made, when they obtained the seal, approximately how long it took them to study, everything was clearly recorded in the Taoist books. Just by checking, one would be able to roughly know your foundation.
However, there was one good thing about Xuanxiu, and that was that the amount of divine essence one could gather was sometimes uncertain. This was completely known only by oneself, and there was no reason for others to interfere. Therefore, no matter how unreasonable it was, as long as you did it, it was reasonable.
Fan Lan bowed to Xiang Chun and said, "Senior Brother Xiang, I didn't want to talk about this at first, but since Senior Brother Xu has doubts, I have to say it."
He paused for a moment, and when the three people looked over, he met their gaze and said, "Junior Brother Zhang is not what we know. At first, he only saw three seals. He saw … all six seals!"
"All six seals?"
Xiang Chun's expression was shocked. After a moment, he said, "Junior Brother Zhang, but that day, why did he …" He paused slightly, as if thinking of something, nodded and said, "I understand. In that case, it's not strange that Junior Brother Zhang has today's achievements."
Previously, he did have some doubts about Zhang Yu's rapid progress, but if it was as Fan Lan said, then it could be explained.
And this was also very easy to verify. When all six seals were seen, cultivators would see some strange phenomena. Only those who had experienced it would know. They only needed to ask, so it could not be faked.
Xu Ying wanted to say something, but Xiang Chun reached out to stop him and said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Xu, no need to say anything. I believe in Junior Brother Zhang. If you have anything to say, we can discuss it in private."
Xu Ying could only swallow his words.
At this time, Fan Lan took the opportunity to suggest, "Senior Brother Xiang, Senior Brother Wang, according to the rules of Xuanfu, Junior Brother Zhang can participate in the decisions of Xuanfu!"
Xu Ying could not hold back and immediately objected, "No! Absolutely not! "
Fan Lan looked at him and said, "Why?"
Xu Ying said emotionally: "Zhang Yu has only been in the Profound Palace for less than a year. The time he has spent in the Profound Palace is truly too short. We still need to observe him more. Junior Brother Fan, don't forget that traitor from that day. He was also overflowing with talent, but what happened in the end?"
Fan Lan said unhappily, "Senior Brother Xu, what you're saying is inappropriate. Do outstanding talents always betray the Xuanfu?"
Xu Ying said, "That's not what I meant."
Fan Lan looked him up and down and said, "Senior Brother Xu, I've long realized that you have a prejudice against Junior Brother Zhang! I think you have some selfish motives, don't you? "
Xu Ying said angrily, "I don't! I don't!"
"You dare say you don't?"
Fan Lan had long accumulated a bellyful of dissatisfaction with Xuanfu's many abnormal behaviors. Today, he took the opportunity to speak out!
"Then let me ask you, after Junior Brother Zhang found Xinguang, why didn't you let him see Xuan Shou?
Junior Brother Zhang cultivated the Seal of the True Embryo, so he should have been given the secret manual. Why didn't you give it to him?
It wasn't easy for Junior Brother Zhang to read the second chapter, but you doubted this and that, and even used Senior Brother Ying as an excuse. I think Senior Brother Ying betrayed the Xuanfu because you forced him! "
Xu Ying said angrily, "Fan Lan, you actually dare to speak up for this traitor?"
Fan Lan said fearlessly, "I told you! What? You want to use me as an example? "
Xu Ying's eyes were red, and the light on his body flickered. He said, "Fan Lan, you dare to say such things? Have you forgotten how Senior Martial Brother Chen died? "
Fan Lan heard this and couldn't help but fall silent.
Wang Gong suddenly said, "Actually, I think what Junior Brother Fan said was very good."
Xu Ying looked at him in disbelief and said, "Senior Brother Wang, you …"
Xiang Chun also looked up.
Wang Gong looked at him with burning eyes and said, "Junior Brother Xu, Senior Brother Xiang, I just want to ask, are you hiding something from us?"
Xu Ying subconsciously avoided his eyes and said angrily, "What do I have to hide from you?! What do I, Xu Ying, not do for Xuanfu? "
Wang Gong glanced at Xiang Chun and said with a nod, "Is that so? That's good. "
"That's enough! Don't talk so much! "
Xiang Chun said in a low voice, "Junior Brothers, you are all thinking for Xuanfu. There is no right or wrong in this."
He looked at Fan Lan and said slowly, "Junior Brother Fan, it was my idea not to bring Junior Brother Zhang to see Xuan Shou because Xuan Shou has been in seclusion since February, so I couldn't see him. As for not imparting the secret manual last time, it was also my idea. I was afraid that Junior Brother Zhang would be greedy and want to improve. I've explained this to Junior Brother Zhang, you can ask him."
Fan Lan thought for a moment and said, "Then Junior Brother Zhang's participation in this matter …"
Xiang Chun pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Junior Brother Fan's suggestion is very reasonable … However, the time that Junior Brother Zhang has spent in the Profound Palace is indeed a little short, and even though he has read the second book, the seals that he has learned are still the same as those in the first book, so he still needs to accumulate some experience. It's not appropriate to let him learn the secrets now, so I think it's better for him to cultivate in peace for a few more days. "
Fan Lan could reluctantly accept this. He said, "Junior Brother Zhang has seen Lingming, so the residence should follow the rules set by Xuan Shou and give him the secret manual …"
Xiang Chun said solemnly, "Of course, Junior Martial Brother Zhang should be given to him. Since he has seen all six seals, let's show him the Book of Six Seals. If he needs any seals, let him choose them himself."
Fan Lan cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I thank Senior Brother Xiang on behalf of Junior Brother Zhang."
Wang Gong thought for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Xiang, according to past rules, Xuanxiu needs to perform a meritorious service before entering the residence to decide matters. I think it's better to let Junior Brother Zhang handle this matter."
Xiang Chun thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Junior Brother Zhang was the one who brought this matter, so it's appropriate to let him handle it now." He picked up a booklet from the table and walked to Fan Lan. He handed it to the latter and said, "Junior Brother Fan, when you return later, bring this booklet to Junior Brother Zhang."
