Chen Yan has been in the Xutian Sect for more than ten years and has always been a registered disciple. In recent years, because his cultivation has broken through to the sixth level of Qi training, his life has been a little better. But what really changed his destiny was
, the innovation started after the new leader came to power.
The headmaster has greatly improved the treatment and promotion channels for registered disciples, so that the outer and inner sect disciples no longer dare to bully them arbitrarily, thus gaining some status. Although Chen Yan is not familiar with the new headmaster at all,
But I am very grateful. It should be said that all the current registered disciples of Xutian Sect have the highest loyalty to the trusted leader.
Especially after learning that the leader was also a registered disciple, Chen Yan was almost too excited to fall asleep. Like many of his fellow disciples, he even dared to dream that he would become the next leader of the Xutian Sect in the future.
However, he knew that it was almost impossible for him to replicate the miracle of the leader. The leader was the most miraculous registered disciple in the history of the world of immortality, and a true legend.
This year, as the registered disciple received the attention of the sect, he also won the opportunity through a series of competitions and relied on his own strength. He was selected as the temporary foreign affairs disciple of the sect and was responsible for picking up and dropping off disciples during the one month period when the sect opened its doors.
The loser goes down the mountain.
Although this task is relatively trivial, it is not easy either. Those who are unsuccessful are generally in a bad mood, and some may even collapse. Sometimes they need comfort, coercion, enlightenment, intimidation, etc. In short, we must ensure that these unsuccessful candidates
The candidates must be sent down the mountain safely and securely, and then handed over to their relatives, teachers, fellow disciples and others. It must be ensured that these losers cannot commit suicide on the mountain.
There were very few losers who left a deep impression on Chen Yan. Most of them were crying or full of resentment. Although they did not dare to scold Xu Tianzong, it could be seen in their eyes.
There were three people who impressed him the most. They seemed to be a brother and sister and a very strong boy. Although those three people were disappointed after losing the election, they were still very courageous. Moreover, they were also chased by their enemies, and they almost died at the foot of the mountain.
This scene happened.
Although Chen Yan considers himself not a warm-hearted person, he is still willing to help those who gain his approval.
The one month of recruiting disciples came to an end soon, and Chen Yan returned to his old life. With this month of hard work, he was rewarded with a medium-grade spiritual stone, which made him excited for a long time.
One day half a month later, when Chen Yan returned to the yard where he was resting after completing all the chores for the month, he found that other people were looking at him with surprise, confusion, and envy, which made him a little nervous.
Know what terrible thing happened.
"Are you Chen Yan?" A man's voice sounded, and Chen Yan realized that there was an extra person in the yard.
"It's me, I wonder who your senior brother is?" After a little probing, Chen Yan felt that the other person's aura was much stronger than his. He immediately felt a shiver in his heart, knowing that the other person was at least a foundation-building disciple.
"I am Li Hongji. I have come to summon you on the order of the master. Is there anything else at hand?" the senior brother asked.
Chen Yan's whole head was roaring, and he fell into a blank. Fortunately, there were people around him to remind him, and Li Hongji didn't seem to blame him. It's strange, when did the foundation-building brothers become so easy to talk to, Chen Yan thought.
"Nothing." Chen Yan replied honestly. Now the registered disciple is much more relaxed. As long as he works for half a month and completes the chores, he can freely spend the rest of his time. He plans to use it to practice the exercises, but now
…
Li Hongji nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong, so just let me go. The boss is still waiting."
"Yes, senior brother." Chen Yan followed Li Hongji in a daze and was about to leave.
However, Li Hongji still looked at him with a half-smile, glanced at his bed, and said, "Take away all your personal belongings. I don't think you will come back here."
hiss……
Hearing Li Hongji's clear words, there was a sudden intake of breath around him, and Chen Yan looked at him in disbelief.
When Chen Yan drowsily packed up his things and put them into his junior storage bag, his roommates who had been with him for several to ten years also gave him some things. These things were basically everyone's gifts.
Collections and the like, anyway, the meaning is the same. When brothers become successful in the future, don’t forget the brothers who once got along with each other in a pothole.
Chen Yan had no choice but to accept all these things, not daring to offend anyone. Now he was not qualified to offend anyone else, although it seemed that he was really going to become famous...
It was carried by Li Hongji's living fairy bird, which was a huge flying horse with a pair of wings. It was rare to see a horse with a pair of wings.
Chen Yan's mind was still dazed until this moment. He didn't know why he was suddenly summoned by the leader. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? But at the moment, it seems... not a bad thing.
The flying speed of the Pegasus Fairy Bird was very fast, much faster than his iron silver plate. After about half an hour, it arrived at the main palace area of Xutian Sect, and finally landed in the square in front of an extraordinary palace.
Chen Yan has almost no chance to come here. He is a small registered disciple and basically operates within the back mountain area.
"Follow me closely, don't look around." Li Hongji reminded, Chen Yan nodded quickly, lowered his head and followed him.
Walking on the square ground paved with polished bluestones made Chen Yan feel even more nervous and excited. Fortunately, his more than ten years of training had tempered his state of mind. He took a few deep breaths and managed to maintain his calm appearance.
.
Entering the temple and passing through the areas where daily affairs are handled, the people here are very busy and there is no time to pay attention to them.
Li Hongji seemed to have gotten used to it, but some people greeted him and called him "Elder Li" after seeing him.
Finally, the two of them came to a corridor at the back of the palace. The environment here suddenly became much cooler, which made Chen Yan feel better. The feeling before was like walking in the sun and sweating continuously.
However, as soon as he stepped into the corridor, he immediately felt more than a dozen eyes focused on him, and finally they all landed on Chen Yan.
At this moment, Chen Yan felt as if his heart was being grabbed, and he was very uncomfortable, just like when he was a mortal being stared at by several ferocious beasts, with murderous intent.
"Don't be afraid, these are the guardians of the guard master." Li Hongji explained, and Chen Yan nodded awkwardly.
Li Hongji also began to say hello to the protectors and explained. Suddenly, the murderous look in his eyes faded a lot, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Finally, we entered a greenhouse, which was completely different from the outside.
First, it is spacious, then it is quiet, with only the loud sound coming from writing, and finally, there is a vague and non-existent breath, as if overlooking the place.
"Master, Chen Yan is here." Li Hongji said with his fists clasped, then stood aside.
Chen Yan still didn't dare to raise his head, but he quickly stepped forward and saluted with clasped fists and said, "Named disciple Chen Yan pays homage to the master."
"Chen Yan, you may have many questions in your mind. Why did I come to you? Don't worry, it's not a bad thing. I intend to let you be my protector." A man with a pleasant-sounding voice said, which made Chen Yan unable to bear it.
Keep your head up.
What caught the eye was a man with long silver hair, wearing a purple robe. His facial features were not too outstanding, but there was a sense of aura and majesty between his brows.
"Thank you so much, Master, for your love. I will do my best, even if I die." Chen Yan quickly knelt down on one knee and said.
Wang Rui laughed loudly and said, "Don't be so nervous. After you get along with me for a long time, you will understand."
After that, Chen Yan became a trainee guardian. It happened that one of the guardians was injured and could no longer take on this responsibility, so he was substituted.
However, Chen Yan's cultivation level was still too low, so Wang Rui specifically asked Li Hongji to devote more resources to him, hoping to make him a foundation-building monk in about a year. Only by becoming a foundation-building monk can he truly serve as a protector.
, otherwise others will gossip about him, and Chen Yan doesn’t want that.
Li Hongji is the leader of the Dharma Protector and Wang Rui's personal Dharma Protector. It is more than enough for him to guide Chen Yan in his practice.
After getting along with each other for a period of time, Chen Yan finally understood that Wang Rui, the leader, did not have much arrogance, let alone show off his power as the leader, and relied more on his own personality charm to conquer others.
It was by chance that he had a drink with Li Hongji and others in private, and Chen Yan finally understood why he was scouted by the boss.
Li Hongji told him that the reason why the leader chose him was mainly because of the bravery and courage he showed when performing foreign affairs tasks some time ago. He was neither arrogant nor timid, and he handled the abnormal situation at the time very appropriately.
"It turned out to be the matter of those three boys." Chen Yan finally realized that he had just intervened unintentionally, but he fell into the eyes of the master. It was really unexpected.
Chen Yan's identity and status have undergone tremendous changes. Being able to become the protector of the sect leader has transformed from a registered disciple to an inner sect disciple. This makes his former registered disciple companions very envious. It is equivalent to directly crossing a level.
Fortunately, Chen Yan's mentality was very good, and under the situation of skewed resources, his cultivation speed began to explode. In half a year, he had already reached the peak of Qi training, and was only one step away from foundation building.
The responsibilities of the guardians are very heavy, but in fact they are very leisurely. They spend most of their time standing guard. They must pay special attention to the people who come to meet the leader. Once there is any change, these guards must risk their lives to protect the leader, even if the other party is a cultivator.
He would not hesitate to be higher than himself.
Although Chen Yan is not yet able to die for Wang Rui from the bottom of his heart, at least he can do it. Before he falls, as long as he has the strength to hold back the assassin, he should not think about crossing over.
Time flies very fast. In a blink of an eye, Chen Yan has been serving as a protector for a year. His cultivation level finally successfully broke through to the foundation building realm half a month ago, and he became a core disciple in the sect, with a status equal to that of an elder.
