Tit for tat
Gu Xuan had over a thousand Flame Condensing Pills on him, so he didn't care about the pills. He directly swallowed a dozen Flame Condensing Pills, allowing his speed to remain at its peak. A day later, Gu Xuan once again arrived at the mountain gate of Ying Tian Sect.
"Who are you? This is Ying Tian Sect."
When Gu Xuan arrived at the sect, the few disciples guarding the sect became nervous. Gu Xuan's aura was not weak, but he was not someone they could deal with.
"I am a disciple of Ying Tian Sect." Gu Xuan showed the token that proved his identity. Only then did the few disciples relax. One of them asked, "Senior brother, your name has never been recorded here. Why are you outside the sect?"
"My name is Gu Xuan. I have just returned from the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion. You can report this to the Elder." Gu Xuan said casually.
The few of them did not know much about Gu Xuan's name. However, when they heard that Gu Xuan had returned from the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion, they could not help but gasp.
Although their status was low, they knew that three of them had survived the trip to the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion and had returned to the sect. The other two were naturally dead.
However, now that a senior brother from the same sect who did not seem weak had appeared and said that he had returned from the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion, this matter was not simple.
"Senior brother, please wait for a moment. We will go and report this!" One of the disciples bowed to Gu Xuan and quickly rushed into the sect.
Regardless of whether Gu Xuan was telling the truth or not, this was not a small matter. Even if it was fake, the Elder would be furious. Gu Xuan would be the unlucky one, not them.
Swoosh!
After Gu Xuan waited for a moment, a tearing sound suddenly came from the sky. In the sky, a white light flashed and instantly landed on the ground, revealing a figure.
This person was the Elder.
When the disciple came to report, the Elder did not have time to confirm the authenticity of the matter and directly flew over.
"Gu Xuan, you are actually still alive?" The Elder's eyes were filled with joy. He quickly sized up Gu Xuan and was shocked speechless.
He could see that Gu Xuan was not only unharmed, but his strength had also improved greatly. Three months ago, when Gu Xuan had entered the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion, he was only a Two Star Honorable. However, three months had passed and he was already close to the peak of Five Star Honorable.
"Your cultivation …" The Elder stared at Gu Xuan in disbelief.
Gu Xuan smiled and did not hide his Five Star Honorable's Aura......... of the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion.
Right now, Gu Xuan was still trying his best to show off his talent. Only by showing off his amazing talent would he be able to attract the attention of the Imparting Elder and have a higher chance of meeting Mo Jingyun.
"Hahaha, good, I really didn't misjudge you!" Elder Technique Imparting laughed wildly.
The few nominal disciples all looked at each other. At the level of the Elder of Imparting Techniques, they were all high and mighty immortals in their eyes. Although they could occasionally see them, these existences were all calm and emotionless, and no one could tell whether they were happy or angry.
Yet, the Elder was laughing so wildly, not caring about his image. What was Gu Xuan's background for the Elder to do this?
Gu Xuan took out the life-saving item that the elder had given him before and returned it to the elder. He said, "I haven't used this treasure even once in the Flame Demon Ancient Manor. I should have passed the test, right?"
"Naturally, you succeeded!" The Elder said nonchalantly. Gu Xuan had already proven himself by breaking through three cultivation realms. Even if Gu Xuan had used this life-saving item, the Elder would still give Gu Xuan the same treatment.
"From now on, you will receive the same treatment as Yang Yu. You will have a treasure exchange point. You will be given three Flame Condensing Pills every month. Furthermore, you can seek me for guidance at any time." The Elder waved his hand.
Gu Xuan did not care much about these things. He asked with a grave expression, "Then, what about meeting the Sect Master?"
"The Sect Master will summon me one month later. At that time, I will introduce you to the Sect Master. Of course, we do not know if the Sect Master wants to meet you. However, with your talent, you should have an eighty percent chance!" the Elder said.
"Eighty percent … That's enough." Gu Xuan nodded. There was nothing absolute in this world. An eighty percent chance was already very high.
"Let's go. I will bring you to meet the many Elders of the Sect. You are now being groomed by the Sect. You will have to meet these Elders."
The Elder wrapped Gu Xuan with his Yuan Power and soared into the sky. They landed in front of a dark red hall.
"Gu Xuan, this is the most important place in the Ying Tian Sect, other than the Seven Story Pagoda where the Sect Master lives. Basically, all the Elders of the Ying Tian Sect live here."
Chuan Gong Elder led Gu Xuan into the palace.
When they arrived at the main hall, the Elder sat down on the second seat. He used his Yuan Power to knock on the ancient bell at the main hall's entrance. A melodious sound spread out.
Not long after, the Ancestor level warriors heard the call of the bell and walked into the main hall. Soon, more than half of the seats were filled.
The people who came in could not help but size Gu Xuan up. After checking Gu Xuan's cultivation level, they could not help but frown. They had heard of Gu Xuan from the Elder. However, they thought that Gu Xuan was a genius. They did not expect Gu Xuan to be a mere Five Star Honorable.
A seventeen-year-old Five Star Honorable. How could he be worthy of the title of genius?
Many people could not help but have doubts in their hearts. However, the Elder's status was very high among the Elders. Hence, no one dared to say anything.
After a quarter of an hour, all twenty-nine seats had been filled. However, the most important seat at the head was still empty.
The Elder could not help but frown. The first seat belonged to the Great Elder of the Sect. How could the Great Elder, who had the highest status among the Elders, be left out when grooming a genius like Gu Xuan?
The Elder frowned. He and the Great Elder were the two people with the highest status in the Elder Compound. They were only second to the Sect Leader and the powerful Sect Elders.
Hence, the Great Elder had always been at odds with him. This time, it would not be easy for him to support Gu Xuan.
"Hahaha. Sorry to keep everyone waiting."
After another quarter of an hour, a hearty laugh came from outside the main hall of the Elder Compound. An old man who looked mighty walked into the main hall with a majestic gait.
Behind him, there were four young men.
The four young men were similar in age to Gu Xuan. However, they were all at the Peak Honorable level!
Looking at the four people behind the mighty old man, Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed. The Great Elder had brought people of the same age as him.
