Early the next morning, Chen Xinzhu and his party left Jiyang County. After spending more than ten days, they traveled across Yangzhou and Yuzhou, and finally returned to Qinzhou where the Huashan Sect was located.
When we returned to the inner gate of the top of Huashan Mountain, it was getting late.
Yan Ding looked at Chen Xinzhu and Meng Huai, and said softly: "You guys have a good rest tonight, and come to Jian Qi Chongxiao Hall tomorrow at midnight."
Chen Xinzhu and the two nodded in response, and soon everyone separated.
Chen Xinzhu thought for a while and did not disturb his friends. He returned to his Qingzhu courtyard alone and meditated for the night.
Early the next morning, Chen Xinzhu washed himself, left the small courtyard and rushed to Jianqi Chongxiao Hall.
Not far away, Chen Xinzhu met many inner disciples, all of whom seemed to be heading towards the Jian Qi Chongxiao Hall.
Chen Xinzhu raised his eyebrows, what happened?
Before he could think about it, a familiar voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Junior Brother Chen? Have you been promoted to the inner sect too?"
After hearing this, Chen Xinzhu turned around and saw a tall young man walking towards him quickly. It was Yang Jianzhang whom he met at the Outer Sect Sword Discussion Conference.
Recognizing the person, Chen Xinzhu nodded in response.
"Senior Brother Yang."
Yang Jianzhang came closer and laughed.
"Zheng Ning and I were talking about you a few days ago. When will you be promoted to the inner sect? I didn't expect you to come so soon."
Chen Xinzhu nodded and did not answer the question. Instead, he asked his doubts.
"Senior Brother Yang, I saw many inner sect brothers rushing to Jianqi Chongxiao Hall. Did something happen?"
When Yang Jianzhang heard this, he glanced at Chen Xinzhu in surprise. "Junior brother Chen, didn't you receive the notice?"
Chen Xinzhu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and said: "I just returned to Huashan last night. If I want to inform you, an uncle asked me to go to Jianqi Chongxiao Hall today."
Yang Jianzhang nodded. "The same is true for Zheng Ning and I. We were informed by the elders seven days ago that we should go to Jian Qi Chongxiao Hall today."
Chen Xinzhu was thoughtful after hearing this. Could it be related to the ruins?
Without thinking much, the two of them quickly arrived in front of the main hall of Jianqi Chongxiao Hall.
Yang Jianzhang was a little surprised when he saw the inner disciples walking into the main hall one by one.
"Good guy, even the main hall has been opened. I'm afraid something big is going on."
Chen Xinzhu nodded and agreed with him. The main hall of Sword Qi Chongxiao Hall may not be opened once every few years, and it is also not a trivial matter to open it every time.
The two of them didn't stop for long, and soon came to the gate. Chen Xinzhu was a little surprised to find that Senior Brother Meng Huai was standing at the entrance of the main hall. Many inner disciples would say hello to him when they passed by.
Seeing this scene, Yang Jianzhang quickly reacted and said to Chen Xinzhu: "Junior brother Chen, that seems to be the inner sect senior brother Meng, let's go say hello too."
Chen Xinzhu nodded in response, and soon the two of them came to Meng Huai.
"Big brother."
"Senior Brother Meng."
Meng Huai nodded in response to Yang Jianzhang, turned to look at Chen Xinzhu, and said softly.
"Junior Brother Chen, all of you have been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me quickly."
Hearing this, Chen Xinzhu was a little surprised, but nodded without showing it on his face.
Chen Xinzhu turned to Yang Jianzhang beside him and said: "Brother Yang, I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
After saying that, Chen Xinzhu cupped his hands, turned around and followed Meng Huai out of the main hall gate.
Seeing the two people walking away, Yang Jianzhang still didn't react.
It seems that Senior Brother Meng knows Junior Brother Chen, but didn’t Junior Brother Chen just join the inner sect? How did they know each other?
Also, how long have you guys been waiting for Junior Brother Chen? What is going on?
For a long time, Yang Jianzhang, who became more and more confused as he thought about it, shook his head.
"Maybe I heard it wrong. Let's wait until Junior Brother Chen comes back and then question him carefully."
Without thinking any more, Yang Jianzhang walked into the main hall and quickly found Zheng Ning, Xue Jiang and others.
Yang Jianzhang walked over quickly, sat down next to Zheng Ning and others, and couldn't help but speak to Zheng Ning and others.
"Guess who I just met?"
…
On the other side, Chen Xinzhu followed Meng Huai to a side hall.
I saw seven people already sitting inside, among them Kong Tianhe, Yan Ding and Master Uncle Han who was seen when Chen Xinzhu ascended to the inner door were among them.
Sitting at the head of the group was a middle-aged man wearing a purple brocade robe. He looked gentle and elegant, not like a swordsman but more like a teacher.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xinzhu guessed the identity of this person and couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Sure enough, the next scene verified his guess.
Seeing the two people coming in, Yan Ding said loudly: "Two apprentice nephews, why don't you come over quickly to pay homage to the master and all the apprentice uncles."
Chen Xinzhu and Meng Huai quickly walked over and stood a few meters away from the crowd. Chen Xinzhu and Meng Huai bowed and clasped their fists and spoke at the same time.
"Inner disciple Meng Huai (Chen Xinzhu) pays homage to the master and all the master uncles."
After he finished speaking, Meng Huai bowed to a middle-aged man with white hair and saluted. "Disciple pays homage to the master."
Only then did Chen Xinzhu know that Meng Huai was originally a disciple of Elder Xiantian.
The senior uncles above also nodded in response.
After the salute, the elegant middle-aged man in purple robe at the head looked at Chen Xinzhu and asked gently: "Chen Xinzhu, the newly promoted inner disciple, I would like to ask you, how old are you? What is your cultivation level? What is your swordsmanship level?
"
Hearing this, Chen Xinzhu felt a little confused, and after a lot of thoughts, he decided to tell the truth. After all, the master's cultivation level might have revealed his level of cultivation.
Thinking of this, Chen Xinzhu bowed and clasped his fists again.
"Reporting to the leader, this disciple is seventeen this year and has just opened up the six extraordinary meridians and eight meridians, and has barely reached the perfection of the acquired realm.
As for the realm of swordsmanship, the second-rate level ‘Flying Eagle Sword Technique’ has barely reached perfection, while the first-rate level superior swordsmanship ‘Three Immortal Swords of Death’ has initially entered the threshold of the Dacheng realm.”
After the words fell, there was no response from the audience for a long time. Chen Xinzhu couldn't help but look up.
The headmaster was still looking at him with a gentle face. As for the other innate master uncles, they seemed a little stunned. The most exaggerated one was senior brother Meng Huai. In shock, he opened his mouth wide and could
A few eggs were stuffed in.
Seeing him, the leader smiled softly and looked to the left and right.
"Master nephews, does anyone still object?"
After hearing this, everyone came back to their senses. Yan Ding's face lit up and he said with some pride: "Uncle Master, I have always been supportive."
Kong Tianhe beside him nodded and said softly: "My nephew agrees."
Uncle Han, who was not far away, looked calm again and said calmly: "My nephew doesn't object either."
Several other people also spoke one after another, and no one objected.
Finally, Meng Huai's master sighed softly and said, "Since I have such talent, my nephew has no reason to object anymore."
Having said this, Master Meng Huai paused for a moment and then continued.
