Hua Guangcan's voice echoed among the disciples, causing a commotion.
"I've long heard that Elder Qiu will choose one of the new disciples to be his disciple this time. I didn't expect that it would be Zhao Xing!"
"It's not surprising that it's Zhao Xing. When Elder Qiu personally checked for hidden dangers for us, didn't he praise Zhao Xing in public? When I heard the news that Elder Qiu was going to personally recruit disciples, I thought of this person.
.”
"That's Elder Qiu. A congenital warrior, it's really enviable to be able to join his sect."
"."
All the disciples looked at Zhao Xuanqi, their eyes full of envy and even jealousy.
Hidden in the team, the inconspicuous Sun Jiajin looked at Zhao Xuanqi's back in front of him, a complicated look flashed across his eyes, including joy, loneliness, and luck.
Zhao Xing, who was in the same situation as him at the beginning, or even worse than him, has now become a being that he looks up to.
He recalled what Zhao Xuanqi said to him back then.
From now on, if someone in the faction bullies you, come to me.
Now it seems that this may not really be a lie.
Some people are happy and some are worried.
When Zuo Dongrui and his party heard the news, their faces instantly turned pale, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble slightly.
They knew that once Zhao Xuanqi became powerful, they would be the unlucky ones.
Even their entire family will suffer.
Innate warriors, among the people, are existences that can dominate an area with one person's strength. How can they provoke them?
"Congratulations, Brother Zhao."
Peng Lin, who was standing next to Zhao Xuanqi, had a simple and honest smile on his face, and he cupped his hands towards Zhao Xuanqi. There was no sign of envy or jealousy, but he seemed to be really happy for Zhao Xuanqi.
"Brother Zhao, congratulations."
On the other side, the expression on Shen Hong's face changed uncertainly. In the end, he sighed and cupped his hands to congratulate him. However, he seemed a little unconvinced after he finished speaking. He continued to say: "This time you conquer the city first, and I will be stronger than you in the future."
.”
However, facing the different looks from everyone around him and the congratulations from Peng Lin and Shen Hong, Zhao Xuanqi's expression looked a little strange.
He did not want to be selected by Qiu Qing to become his disciple, mainly because this person was very strong, and he could not guarantee whether he would be exposed if he had close contact with such masters for a long time.
Perhaps, it might have been exposed now. Otherwise, why did Qiu Qing choose him to become his disciple?
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, and Zhao Xuanqi quickly calmed down his thoughts, accurately controlled his facial muscles, and created a joyful smile in response to everyone's congratulations.
Hua Guangcan paused for a moment, giving everyone time to whisper, and then continued to read out the distribution results of each disciple.
About half an hour later, Hua Guangcan finished reading, issued corresponding tokens to each disciple, and then let everyone disperse. They continued with their homework today, and there was no need to gather here early tomorrow morning to go find their respective teachers.
Just report it.
There was no words for a day, and soon night fell. Zhao Xuanqi finished his duty and returned to his room. Along the way, he concentrated his energy and carefully sensed the surrounding situation. He did not find that anyone was monitoring him, nor did he sense any subtle changes.
danger and malice.
Sitting on the bed, he closed his eyes slightly and carefully sensed it again. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he began to think about today's assignment by the teacher.
During the investigation that day, did Qiu Qing find out the details about himself? Was his behavior that day intentional? Did he have an ulterior motive in accepting him as his disciple now?
Zhao Xuanqi couldn't be sure, but he didn't feel like it. At least the opponent's Yuan Qi probe at that time did not penetrate deep into his acupoints.
As for why he was chosen to be a disciple, there are traces to follow. On the one hand, the Scarlet Heart Sect now needs fresh blood. As an elder, it is normal for Qiu Qing to lead by example and recruit disciples. On the other hand, his performance in all aspects is indeed remarkable.
Even if his strength is hidden, Yuan Qi's level is still one level higher than other disciples.
And if the other party really has a plot against him, they should send someone to monitor him during this period to prevent him from leaving the True Heart Sect.
"Maybe there is some suspicion, or maybe it's just a coincidence."
Zhao Xuanqi was deep in thought, feeling that although there was a risk of exposure if he joined Qiu Qing's sect, it was also an opportunity.
After all, with this level of identity, he can more easily access the core secrets of the Red Heart Sect and obtain skills and other intelligence information, which can save him a lot of merit points.
When it's time to behave, you really need to behave appropriately and don't need to be too formal.
"After meeting this elder Qiu tomorrow, we will find out."
Zhao Xuanqi thought to himself, and soon stopped worrying about this matter, and began to mobilize the life energy in the Jade of Reincarnation for practice.
Even though he is currently busy with many affairs every day, in three days at most, he will be able to complete the transformation of the heart using the Five Evils' method and officially enter the realm of the Five Qi Tongxuan.
If there are no accidents or disturbances, and if he continues to practice so calmly, in about two months, he will be able to complete the transformation of the five internal organs and reach the state of the five qi. By then, the second level of the Dragon Gate will be opened, and his strength will enter a new realm.
.
Only by regaining his strength as soon as possible can he take some initiative in this world.
Early the next morning, Zhao Xuanqi packed up, took the token that Hua Guangcan sent to him yesterday, and prepared to report to Qiu Qing.
With the token in his hand clearing the way, he arrived at the mansion where Qiu Qing temporarily lived without any hindrance. After the disciple guarding the door verified the authenticity of the token, he was introduced to the backyard study of the two-entry house.
Before Zhao Xuanqi came to the study, he cupped his hands and said softly: "Disciple Zhao Xing, please see the teacher!"
"come in."
Qiu Qing's gentle but plain voice sounded, and Zhao Xuanqi opened the study door, crossed the high threshold, and walked into the room.
The study room was simply decorated, with a red table in the middle and a thick stack of papers on it. Qiu Qing was sitting behind the desk, holding the papers in his hand and flipping through the pages.
Beside him, there was a woman standing beside him, making tea.
This woman is at least about 1.8 meters tall. Even the loose plain robe of the True Heart Sect cannot conceal her excellent body proportions. Her vigorous heroic spirit and delicate face form a different kind of temperament. An ordinary man standing here
It's easy to feel ashamed in front of women and unable to hold your head up.
It was He Xijun who had fought alongside him in the ghost town.
Seeing Zhao Xuanqi walking in, He Xijun stopped what he was doing, raised his face, and looked Zhao Xuanqi up and down with a look of interest in his eyes.
Zhao Xuanqi didn't look at her, he just bowed his hands in a respectful manner.
But in fact, he already knew it.
If someone else is present, even if this person is He Xijun, it means that Qiu Qing will most likely not have any plot against him.
Qiu Qing, after flipping through the documents in his hand, raised his head, looked at Zhao Xuanqi, put a warm smile on his face, and said: "Zhao Xing, right? From today on, you are
You are now my disciple, and when I saw the profound energy in your body that day, I felt that you were a malleable talent."
"Now here I want to explain in advance that you must abide by two rules when you join my sect. One is that you cannot rely on my reputation to be domineering in the sect or do anything wrong. Otherwise, I will clean up the sect myself without others taking action; secondly, you must not
If you slack off in your practice, I will assess your practice progress every quarter. If I find that you are slacking off in your practice, you will have to suffer. Are you willing to abide by it?"
Qiu Qing looked at Zhao Xuanqi and asked.
"Disciple is willing."
Zhao Xuanqi cupped his hands and said.
"Well, I heard that your parents and relatives all died in the hands of evil spirits. That incident in Guming County also caused heavy losses to our True Heart Sect. Now in this world, evil evil spirits are rampant and disasters continue. When we wait for the warriors to develop their skills, we will
I hope you can remember the sufferings of the past and slay the demons, so that you can be worthy of your dead relatives."
Qiu Qing said.
"Disciples will definitely live up to Master's expectations!"
Zhao Xuanqi expressed his stance again.
"There is one more thing I want to explain to you. Although you have joined my sect, there are many affairs in Guming County now. I need to take charge of the overall situation and cannot be distracted. Therefore, your senior sister will take care of teaching you how to practice."
"Come, let me introduce you to He Xijun. The disciple I took in two years ago is now one of the strongest among the disciples in the Zhuangxue Realm in my sect. It is more than enough for her to teach you how to practice. You really have doubts.
Please come and ask me again."
Qiu Qing pointed to He Xijun on the side and said to Zhao Xuanqi.
"Senior Sister He, this is the first time we meet, but Junior Brother, I have admired Senior Sister for a long time. Please take care of me in the future."
Zhao Xuanqi raised his hands to He Xijun and said.
He Xijun also bowed his hand to Zhao Xuanqi, but did not say much and looked very cold.
"Okay, I still have things to deal with here. Xijun, please take Zhao Xing and start practicing."
After saying this, Qiu Qing waved his hand casually, picked up a copy of the document and started reading it. It seemed that he only accepted Zhao Xuanqi as a disciple because the situation required it.
However, it is true that as an innate warrior, an elder in the sect, in charge of matters in Guming County, it is impossible for him to have time to personally teach Zhuangxue Realm cultivation. If Qiu Qing showed too much enthusiasm, Zhao Xuanqi would be more suspicious.
Now this casual look made Zhao Xuanqi feel more at ease.
It seems that this person did not find out his true identity, and it was just a coincidence that he was admitted.
"yes."
Zhao Xuanqi and He Xijun responded at the same time and exited the room.
"Come with me."
After walking out of the room, He Xijun glanced at Zhao Xuanqi and said, then turned and walked towards a side courtyard of the mansion.
"I heard from Master that you have been a disciple for more than a month, but you have accumulated a lot of Yuan Qi in your body, which is more than that of ordinary new disciples. Now you use the Blood Qi Talisman to attack with all your strength. Let me see how far your Blood Qi is."
He Xijun said to Zhao Xuanqi.
"Okay, senior sister."
Zhao Xuanqi nodded and took out a piece of cinnabar ink mud from his pocket. After staining the ink mud, he quickly carved the Blood Qi Talisman on his palm, then took a step forward, properly mobilized his blood and strength, and struck out a palm.
Instantly, the blood energy spread, turned into red light, and exploded a distance of one foot in radius.
"Can the released blood energy fill a one-foot radius? It's not bad."
He Xijun nodded and said.
"Thank you for the compliment, senior sister."
Zhao Xuanqi said with a smile.
"Don't be too proud. This is just an average level. Your senior sister and I have been here for more than a month, and my blood energy can fill a two-foot radius. You still have to work harder."
He Xijun glanced at Zhao Xuanqi and said calmly.
"How can I compare with my senior sister?"
Zhao Xuanqi said with a dry smile.
Seeing Zhao Xuanqi's reaction, He Xijun, who seemed to have satisfied some of the inherent needs of human social groups, nodded slightly and seemed to be very satisfied with Zhao Xuanqi's attitude.
Although she has good strength and is now among the best among Zhuangxue Realm disciples, her real age is only eighteen years old after all. Although she is usually called senior sister by other Zhuangxue Realm disciples because of her strength and needs to pretend to be cold, she is actually still
It was the first time for her to do this kind of thing as a teacher, and she felt a strange sense of accomplishment.
"Usually, you continue to practice Zhengyuan Gong by yourself. This technique is the foundation of all methods in my sect. The progress of practice depends on personal qualifications. Outsiders can't help much. What I teach you here is the Harmony Technique.
Something related.”
"At the stage of Zhuangxue Realm, blood energy is just the most low-end method of our Red Heart Sect. Going up, we need to further condense the blood energy and transform it into blood fire. The next step is red fire, and the next step is golden fire. This is
It’s the third transformation of blood energy.”
"With every change, the power released by Yuan Qi will further increase greatly. Your senior sister and I have condensed the red fire, and the senior brother Zhao who was involved in the ghost city incident used golden fire."
Speaking of Golden Fire, He Xijun was slightly absent-minded, as if he was recalling something.
"Off topic, for you, while practicing Zhengyuan Gong, you now need to start practicing the technique of condensing blood energy into blood fire."
"This technique requires the cooperation of various factors such as technique, energy generation, blood circulation, and spirit. Its core essence is 'burning'."
"It's like igniting a flame, causing the power in the body to burst suddenly, just like dry wood encountering a fierce fire, for example."
He Xijun said, then he forced out the blood from his fingertips, carved the Blood Qi Talisman spell on his palm, and struck out with a sudden palm.
The body shape changes from stillness to movement in an instant, just like a flame exploding, an explosion of energy and intention.
boom!!
The blood energy escaped from the technique, and the red light suddenly shook and expanded under the explosive force, vaguely taking on the shape of a flame.
"Use the Blood Qi Talisman to stimulate the blood Qi. If you can manifest the shape of flames, you have reached the threshold. At that time, I will teach you the content of the spell that can continuously stimulate the blood and fire. Now you exert your strength, and I will adjust the movements for you."
He Xijun said.
Zhao Xuanqi nodded, thought for a moment, and looked like he was mentally stimulated.
Then he circulated his energy and blood and struck out with one palm, imitating He Xijun's appearance just now.
Peng!!
The blood energy escaped and the blood light spread, but this time, the edge of the light trembled, and it seemed to have the shape of a trace of flame.
Seeing this scene, the expression on He Xijun's face froze slightly.
