As soon as these two words came out, the scene fell silent for an instant.
The sect leader hesitated for a few seconds, stood a few steps forward, and said to Lang Dong, "Lang Dong, take the casual cultivators down first and arrange them properly."
Lang Dong took a step sideways from behind Master Xuan Dan, bent down and said, "Disciple accepts the order."
After Lang Dong finished speaking, he turned around and led several Wanfo Sect disciples, taking the two hundred new casual cultivators with him first.
Yu Shu stood behind Emperor Zun and turned around to follow Lang Dong and the others.
She had just taken a few steps when a sudden force came from her hand, pulling her tightly.
Yu Shu followed the force and looked up, and when she met the man's gaze, she was startled.
Why is this Emperor pulling her?
Just when Yu Shu was in shock and doubt, a voice came over, breaking the deadlock.
The sect leader looked at Emperor Zun and said, "Emperor, please think twice."
"This is not only for yourself, but also for the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, and for the entire Cultivation Continent!"
"Emperor, since that war between good and evil, no monk has ascended in nearly a thousand years."
There are only light wrinkles on the sect leader's face, but his hair and beard are all gray.
There were a few waves in his eyes, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at the Emperor solemnly.
Having said this, several other elders, as if they had agreed, bent down slightly, cupped their hands and said.
"Emperor..."
"I hope you will think twice!!"
Emperor Zun frowned and looked at the elders with an expression of uncontrollable surprise and an indescribable depression in his heart.
"My ascension has nothing to do with any of this." Emperor Zun explained in a deep voice.
But the sect leader and the elders only regarded the Emperor as shirk.
"Emperor, why don't you take her into your sect first?" The sect leader looked at Emperor and advised politely.
Even if this female cultivator does not allow the emperor to ascend in the end, considering the fate of this female cultivator as a son of heaven, she should be vigorously cultivated.
"That's right, Emperor Zun." "That's right."
Yu Shu blinked, not interested in the scene in front of her of forcing a good girl into prostitution, and even felt a little bored.
Her eyes couldn't help but drift to Wen Xuezui, who was standing aside silently.
I don't know if it was because the emperor refused too simply just now, but now Wen Xuezhen's face was red, with embarrassment on her face.
Yu Shu's dark eyes were a bit colder, she twisted her arm a few times and freed her hand from Emperor Zun's grasp.
Yu Shu looked at the elders in front of her talking to each other, and quietly took a few steps back.
I was planning to sneak out secretly.
Suddenly, Emperor Zun's voice suddenly rose in pitch, frightening Yu Shu who was about to sneak away.
"I said my ascension has nothing to do with her. If you want to keep her, you can teach her yourself. I don't welcome her at Red Feather Peak."
Emperor Zun was really anxious now. He had ten mouths and he couldn't speak clearly.
He couldn't clearly say that Wen Xuezhen had nothing to do with his love disaster, and he couldn't even explain why he hadn't ascended yet.
Emperor Zun's eyebrows were serious and his lips were pursed tightly. He raised his eyes and looked at Yu Shu who was about to sneak away, feeling even more depressed in his heart.
At this time, Wen Xuezui suddenly spoke up.
The water in her eyes was flowing, and her voice was a little soft, "Dear elders, sect masters, Lord Emperor."
She bowed very politely, "Xue Yu is just a casual cultivator. He dare not climb up to the emperor, let alone bear this honor."
As Wen Xuezhen spoke, she raised her eyes and looked at Emperor Zun without speaking.
"Since the Emperor is not willing to do so, Xue Yu dares to invite all the elders, so it's better not to force it."
As soon as these words came out, several elders paused and looked at each other, wondering what to do.
Emperor Zun glanced at Wen Xuezhen coldly, his eyes obscure and complicated.
Then Emperor Zun suddenly shook his sleeves and said sternly, "I have made up my mind, there is no need to discuss this matter again!"
As he spoke, Emperor Zun's eyes seemed to have a hint of anger, and he turned around and walked out without mercy.
Don't forget to take Yu Shu with you when you leave.
Master Xuandan looked at the backs of the two people and said, "Sect Master, what should we do?"
The sect leader frowned, and he didn't know what to do for a moment. Who dared to force Emperor Zun? If Emperor Zun wanted to, he could take his position as the sect leader.
However... the sect leader looked at the female cultivator behind Emperor Zun and muttered.
"Who is the female cultivator behind Emperor Zun?"
Master Xuandan sighed, "Hey, this is a newly recruited casual cultivator. The Emperor said he would accept her as his disciple!"
"Oh." The sect master responded with sudden realization, and then immediately noticed something was wrong, "What?! Emperor Zun wants to accept a disciple?"
Master Xuandan nodded, stroking his beard, "I said I wanted to take it, but the female cultivator didn't want to."
"I don't want to!" When the sect leader heard this, his eyes almost popped out, "What is the background of this female cultivator?"
"What's the background?" Master Xuan Dan frowned and thought about it seriously, "It doesn't seem to have any background. He is an excellent alchemist and is more talented than Lang Dong."
The sect leader became more and more confused as he listened, "Alchemy? Do I think she is a swordsman?"
Master Xuandan raised his eyebrows and said, "He is a sword cultivator."
The sect leader's brows furrowed, and just when he was about to speak, Elder Xingji on the side interrupted him unbearably.
"Sect Master, don't worry about sword cultivators or alchemy cultivators, just deal with this matter first."
As Elder Xingji said this, he pulled Wen Xuezui and took a few steps forward.
Elder Xingji said anxiously, "The Emperor is so reluctant, what should we do now?"
The sect leader first glanced at Wen Xuezui, then patted Wen Xuezui on the shoulder as if unintentionally, "What is your little girl's name?"
Wen Xuezhen's eyebrows were lowered, and when she was about to answer, she was overtaken by Elder Xingji.
"Her name is Wen Xuezui. Sect Master, you should think of a way!"
The sect leader frowned and narrowed his eyes, "Oh, Xingji, why are you so anxious?"
Elder Xingji glared, "Can I not be in a hurry? If the emperor doesn't accept it, then I will arrange for it to be transferred to my Xingji Palace."
As soon as Elder Xingji finished speaking, Master Xuandan couldn't help but snarled.
"You are a mage and you are a swordsman. What can you teach me?!"
Elder Xingji immediately became unhappy and wanted to start a quarrel with Master Xuan Dan.
The sect leader sighed, hurriedly comforted Elder Xingji, and then said, "What Master Xuan Dan said is quite reasonable."
The sect leader looked at Wen Xuezui and said with a smile, "Ms. Xuezui, has she joined the sect and has a master?"
Wen Xuezhen's eyes paused for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. She pursed her lips and shook her head rather shyly.
"Xue Yu's talent is not high, she has never had a master, and she has never been admitted to a sect."
The sect leader smiled when he received the answer, "Then are you willing to stay in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect and worship Master Jianyue as your master?"
When Wen Xuezui heard this, her heart was lifted. She pinched herself fiercely to remind herself not to get too carried away.
She suddenly raised her head to look at the sect leader, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she felt a little embarrassed and turned her gaze to Master Jianyue, timidly asking, "Is Master Jianyue willing?"
Master Jianyue has a bold appearance and is tall and strong. When he was suddenly asked, he was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed loudly and said, "Why don't you want to do this!"
The sect leader chuckled lightly, "Then let's settle it like this. Xue Lei will go to Shanyue Peak first, and then hold the apprenticeship ceremony in a few days."
Hearing this, Wen Xuezui raised the corners of her lips and formed a smile. A few mist suddenly appeared in her eyes, and she actually cried with joy.
"Thank you, master! Thank you, real person!"
The sect leader patted Wen Xuezui on the shoulder encouragingly, and called out to several disciples to take Wen Xuezui down.
"Sect Master, what should I do with Emperor Zun?" Elder Xingji frowned and still asked.
The sect master glanced at Elder Xingji and let out a long sigh, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Xingji, we can't rush this kind of thing!"
The sect leader looked towards the direction where the emperor left just now, and said quietly, "Sometimes it is destined to be there, but there is no time in life. Don't force it. Leave everything to fate, Xingji."
"But..." Elder Xingji frowned and wanted to say something else, but Master Xuan Dan stole the topic.
Master Xuandan raised his voice and echoed, "What the sect master said makes sense!"
Elder Xingji was blocked for a moment and gave Master Xuan Dan a hard look.
Master Jianyue looked at the sect master and asked quickly, "Sect master, what are you thinking about?"
The sect leader's brows furrowed, his eyes heavy with thoughts, "I was thinking that the female cultivator next to Emperor Zun just now looked familiar."
"How did Emperor Zun know that female cultivator?" the sect leader asked in a deep voice.
But no one behind him could answer.
Emperor Zun has been in seclusion all year round, only staying in the Red Feather Peak and never asking about the affairs of the sect. Why did he suddenly come out of seclusion today?
Master Jianyue's eyes turned sharp, "Do you mean, the sect master, that there is something fishy about this matter?"
The sect leader's eyes darkened a bit and he did not speak. He withdrew his gaze and looked at Master Jian Yue, "Jian Yue, you need to pay more attention to the matter of the Son of Heaven."
"Arrange the apprenticeship ceremony as soon as possible, the bigger the better."
"Okay, elders, please leave as soon as possible."
After the sect leader said these few words, he was about to leave, as if there was something important. This chapter has been completed!
