"What, this... is too ridiculous. Hey, what do you think Master is doing?"
"Who knows, but no matter what, there must be someone who comes first, first served. Why can this kid be regarded as the future successor by the master when he first arrives?"
"Hmph, why should I tell you that this kid must be Master's illegitimate son?"
"Hush, little monkey, be careful of trouble coming from your mouth."
"I don't care, I just feel aggrieved for Senior Brother. Everyone can see how difficult it is for Senior Brother to work hard for so many years. Anyway, in my heart, Senior Brother is the future successor."
Just as everyone was talking about it, the second senior brother finally couldn't sit still.
"Why are you making such a fuss? Just be quiet. It's still time for the morning meeting." The second senior brother shouted loudly, feeling very excited. He himself didn't know why. It stands to reason that the senior brother should be more aggrieved than him. How come the senior brother is more depressed than him?
He was still calm and didn't say anything.
"Ximen Yu, I don't care why master favors you so much, but now you are the latest to get started and the lowest level of cultivation, so you must have enough respect for us senior brothers and obey our arrangements." The second senior brother said to him.
Ximen Yu said coldly.
"Okay, Second Senior Brother." Ximen Yu responded, thinking what kind of stupid thing the old Taoist priest wanted me to do. Now he has become the target of public criticism, and everyone is unhappy with him.
"Senior brother, look, we have a meeting this morning..." The second senior brother turned to look at the senior brother and asked.
"Leave it to you." After saying that, the senior brother left without looking back. Anyone with a discerning eye could see how disappointed and depressed he felt.
"Everyone has seen that our senior brother is not feeling well, so I will host today's morning meeting. Ximen Yu, you two sit at the back. Now everyone recite with me: 'The ancient goodness is the way'
"It is a subtle and mysterious thing that cannot be recognized. I cannot recognize it, so I force myself to show it." I don't know why, looking at the decadent side of the senior brother, the second senior brother becomes less depressed. For example, try it now
The feeling of satisfaction that one person is less than ten thousand people has never been experienced before. It seems that Ximen Yu's arrival is not without some benefits.
"Those who were good at Taoism in ancient times had subtle mystical powers that could not be discerned. They were incomprehensible, so they were forced to show their appearance." All the disciples suppressed the mixed feelings in their hearts and followed the second senior brother in reciting the Taoist scriptures carelessly.
After the morning meeting, the second senior brother hurriedly went to find the senior brother.
"Senior Brother, Master announced Ximen Yu's special identity in front of everyone today. All the junior brothers feel sorry for Senior Brother. They don't know if this boy is what the junior brothers said, because he is Master's illegitimate son.
, that’s why I’m so lucky.”
"Humph, they have no brains and are just talking nonsense. We have been following Master for the longest time. Don't you know what kind of person he is?"
"Of course I don't believe it. I met this kid by chance in Jueyuan Valley yesterday. If I hadn't promised to bring them back to see Master, Master wouldn't have known this kid. Now that I think about it, I really regret it."
"Oh, no matter how much you say, it's useless. Master has decided the matter and no one can change it." The senior brother sighed.
"Then what's your next plan, Senior Brother?"
"Leave this place of right and wrong." Even though the eldest brother was reluctant to leave, there was nothing he could do.
"Well, Senior Brother, didn't you already enter the Immortal Realm more than ten years ago? If it weren't for the position of the next Immortal Sect Master, you would have left the mountain a long time ago. If you just gave up, what would happen?
It’s worthy of more than ten years of hard work.”
"You are right. A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. I have been waiting for a promise from Master for more than ten years. It was not until today that I realized how stupid I am. If Master trusts me, I can rest assured that I will make a promise to the Immortal Sect."
If it was handed over to me, this would have been done more than ten years ago."
"Then you are willing to just walk away like this. If there is always an unfinished plot in your heart that cannot be removed, it will not be conducive to the improvement of your realm.
"Then what solution do you have? I think if this problem is not solved, it will also cause a lot of trouble for you to advance to the realm of immortality."
"Indeed, I am also very unwilling in my heart. It's not that I value the position of the sect leader so much, but that I am also a disciple of the Immortal Sect. Why can master help Ximen Yu ascend to the realm of immortals within three years, but he has to
We spend dozens or hundreds of times more time here wasting away time, so I have a suggestion, why don't we catch Ximen Yu tonight after the junior brothers are asleep and ask questions to see what Master values about him." Second Senior Brother
He suggested that this was actually a doubt in his mind. He didn't believe that it was just as simple as Ximen Yu's opportunity.
"Well, let me think about it." Eldest brother was embarrassed.
"What are you still struggling with, Senior Brother? If we don't figure out what happened, our state of mind will be greatly affected." Second Senior Brother advised, if Ximenyu's formation hadn't been solid, he would have gone alone.
He did it, but now among the many senior brothers, only the eldest brother has reached the realm of immortality, so with his strength, Ximenyu's formation cannot stop him.
"Do you think if we ask Ximenyu like this, he will tell the truth?"
"It's difficult unless we use coercion and inducement."
"But... if Master finds out, we will be left with nothing to eat."
"I'm not even afraid. Senior brother, what are you afraid of? The worst thing you can do is to be kicked off the mountain. Anyway, the position of the leader of the sect has nothing to do with you."
"Well, that's right, let's play it by ear tonight." The senior brother made up his mind to find out.
"Well, see you at midnight. I'll take my leave first."
In the dead of night, the second senior brother woke up Ximenyu and brought him to the senior brother's residence.
"I've met senior brother," Ximen Yu said.
"Ximen Yu, I heard that your formation skills are so superb that even the master couldn't help but accept you as a closed disciple." The senior brother asked tentatively.
"Yes, it is Master's misplaced love. However, Junior Brother, I am self-aware, and I will ask for more guidance from Senior Brothers in the future."
"In this case, why does Master believe that you have the ability to take over our Immortal Sect? Based on seniority, when will it be your turn." The second senior brother said coldly.
"I don't understand this. I only know that I must respect my teacher and do whatever the master tells me to do."
"Then you should tell us what Master said to you after he kicked me out of Yingfeng Teahouse." The second senior brother asked curiously.
"Sorry, I promised Master and I will never break my promise." Ximenyu said apologetically.
