Hearing A Chitong's inquiry, Ye Xiaochuan's calm cheek showed a hint of sadness.
He nodded and said, "Yes, I have been in seclusion alone in that small cave for fifteen years.
During those fifteen years, I practiced crazily every day and never dared to slack off.
When I walked out of the cave fifteen years later and saw the outside world, I felt like I had been reborn."
Everyone was silent.
But everyone's eyes were shining with awe at this moment.
A person spends fifteen years in seclusion alone in a closed cave... Fifteen years is not a long time for a cultivator who is often four or five hundred years old.
However, there are very few people in the world who can do this.
One person and one sword.
A world of one person... loneliness, loneliness, will torture anyone crazy.
What's more, Ye Xiaochuan has been a lively person since he was a child.
No one can imagine how much psychological torture Ye Xiaochuan endured during those fifteen years.
Achitong has always claimed to be the best martial artist in the world, but the longest time he has been in solitary seclusion is only two years.
Almost none of the other demon sect masters here have been in solitary seclusion for more than three months.
But Ye Xiaochuan has been in seclusion alone for more than fifteen years.
No wonder that when Ye Xiaochuan reappeared in the world after so many years, he seemed completely changed from before.
He spoke less and the smile disappeared from his face.
The whole person looks young, but in fact the vicissitudes of life are a mess.
It turned out that he had experienced fifteen years of painful torture here.
Apart from admiration and awe, these people really feel nothing else.
He saw everyone looking at him with awe.
Ye Xiaochuan struck while the iron was hot and said: "A Chitong, Hong Bo, Bowen Gu, Shang Yongye, Lu Haiya, Qu Xian'er, Qin Shuang'er, supposedly you are all dozens of years older than me, and you are my senior brothers.
Senior sister, look, there are some things I shouldn't say.
But today, I have to say it.
A huge change will occur in the Three Realms in the future, which involves a game between the top executives of the Three Realms. I, Ye Xiaochuan, do not want to be a pawn of the Lord of Heaven and the Evil God. I want to find my own way, a brand new road to conquer the sky.
.
But my strength is not enough to fight against the Lord of Heaven. I need you to join me, not to join the Ghost Xuan Sect, but to join my camp.
The road to defeat the sky is extremely difficult, and many, many people will die on this road, even all of us will die.
Those who are willing to follow me, Ye Xiaochuan, let us point our swords at the sky together and declare war on the Lord of Heaven and those who try to control our destiny.
I won't force anyone who doesn't want to follow me. When we meet in the future, we will still be good brothers and we will still drink and eat meat."
Everyone looked at each other.
Ye Xiaochuan brought them too many shocks and surprises today.
They are willing to follow Ye Xiaochuan to explore the Sea of Forgetfulness, but it does not mean that these people are willing to follow Ye Xiaochuan on the road to conquer the sky.
They were all smart people and understood why Ye Xiaochuan told them the secret of the Ten Thousand Fox Ancient Cave in Qilin Mountain.
This is the first and last time that Ye Xiaochuan recruits them. If someone refuses, Ye Xiaochuan will not kill him, but he will never recruit that person again in the future.
This is a choice, a choice that affects the fate of each of them.
There was silence in the cave, a deathly silence.
Ye Xiaochuan knew that this decision was difficult for everyone present.
Once they decided to follow themselves, these people separated from those of the Demon Sect and no longer obeyed Tuoba Yu's orders.
It's really tough.
Just when everyone was thinking about how to make a choice, A Chitong slowly stood up.
He looked at Ye Xiaochuan and said word by word: "I, Achitong, have been unruly throughout my life and have never admired anyone.
But Mr. Ye is the only person I admire.
Although Mr. Ye is decades younger than me, I admire Mr. Ye from the bottom of my heart."
As he spoke, Achitong knelt on one knee, crossed his hands, and said slowly: "I, Achitong, swear by the Holy Mother Demon God, I am willing to serve Ye Xiaochuan as my master. I will follow the young master to the death to fight against the unkindness of heaven."
, if you violate today’s oath, you will be burned to death by the fire of karma!”
Everyone did not expect that among them, A Chitong, who had the best moral character, the highest vision, and the most arrogant temper, would be the first to stand up and make the most vicious oath to follow Ye Xiaochuan.
These people didn't know that A Chitong had already regarded Ye Xiaochuan as his young master. At this moment, when A Chitong saw no reaction from everyone, he jumped out first to help his young master subdue these people.
Everyone started to look at each other again.
They admire Ye Xiaochuan's character, otherwise they would not have followed Ye Xiaochuan's instructions and risked their lives to go to the Snowy Mountains to rescue Baili Yuan and others.
Not to mention that he would not risk his life to rescue Ye Xiaochuan in the recent battle on the sacred mountain.
Bowengu stood up.
Now Ye Xiaochuan has become his junior master uncle, and his master has clearly told him that he will join the Ghost Xuan Sect lineage.
Bowen Gu has nothing to hesitate about.
He also knelt down.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Haiya, Qu Xianer, and Qin Shuang also knelt on one knee in front of Ye Xiaochuan with their hands crossed.
Shang Yongye's eyes began to light up.
He knew Ye Xiaochuan for a short time and only got along with him for a few days. Unlike the people around him, he had known Ye Xiaochuan for many years and had been through life and death.
But with a close friend, a thousand cups are too short, and Ye Xiaochuan was the first close friend Shang Yongye met in his life.
Seeing those rebellious people like A Chitong willingly follow Ye Xiaochuan to death, Shang Yongye knew that this moment was the turning point of his destiny.
Or, vigorously embark on the road to conquer the sky and fight for destiny.
Or, continue to live in seclusion and live in obscurity.
Shang Yongye chose the former.
Like everyone else, he knelt down on one knee and shouted his vows.
The most important thing for the people of the Demon Cult is their faith. Since these people have sworn to follow them on the road to conquer heaven, they will not break their faith.
Ye Cha sighed and said: "Congratulations, the qualifications of these people are not as good as those of Long Tianshan. If you take them under your account today, you will be even more powerful.
Those who are recruited through force are just outsiders. Only those who follow willingly and to the death are the ones who truly belong to them.
Hey, if the people around me back then had the loyalty of these young people, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
Ye Tianci hummed: "I really don't understand, given Ye Xiaochuan's indecisive character, why these masters of cultivation like to be friends with him, even if they are willing to die for him."
Ye Cha said calmly: "Be truthful and treat others with sincerity. These eight words are something you, the inner demon, will never understand."
Ye Tianci said: "Of course I understand, it's just that I don't have the chance to use it.
If I were allowed to occupy this body for three to five years, I would definitely be able to defeat all enemies and trample all sentient beings in the three realms under my feet!"
