On each of the seven peaks of the Inner Sect, there is an Inner Sect elder.
These seven elders are also called preaching elders. Inner disciples can come to them for advice on daily practice issues.
Therefore, these seven elders have the highest status among the inner sect.
Looking at the seven green mountains that were looming among the surrounding clouds and mist, Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and walked towards Leiyuan Peak.
According to what the eldest prince Yun Chen said, these seven elders all possess different types of martial arts seals, and their cultivation levels are all at the eighth or ninth level of foundation building. Among them, the elders of Leiyuan Peak possess the thunder attribute martial arts seals.
Not long after, Zhou Yuan followed the stairs and saw the towering buildings on Leiyuan Peak.
In Leiyuan Peak, each inner disciple has his own separate mansion. The mansion is not big, but the environment is much better than that of the outer sect and Miscellaneous Peak. There are gardens, roads, streams...
The mansion's architecture was magnificent, and Zhou Yuan felt as if he had entered another world when walking inside.
At the same time, Zhou Yuan noticed that there were auras of divine consciousness, like pairs of eyes, sweeping over and staring at him.
Some inner disciples even showed up directly, either on the wall, or opened the door, and watched from a distance. When they saw that there was nothing between Zhou Yuan's brows, and there was no martial arts seal, they all looked shocked.
You must know that those who can enter the inner gate without a martial arts seal are those with a rock-like heart.
However, what Zhou Yuan felt the most was the cold and cold gazes hidden in the dark. They were sneering. It was not that they looked down on Zhou Yuan because he did not have a martial arts seal. In fact, they were all members of the Third Prince Yun Zheng.
Who is Zhou Yuan? He is a thorn in Yun Zheng's side.
At this moment, Zhou Yuan and these people who are spying on him are in different camps, each serving his own master, so there is naturally a gap between them.
Not long after leaving, Zhou Yuan saw several familiar figures.
"Brother Yuan."
"Brother Zhou Yuan."
At the same time, those figures also saw Zhou Yuan and immediately waved to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan smiled slightly and walked over quickly.
Those were the eldest prince Yunchen, a few of his very close friends, including Nangong He and Su Ruobing.
Most of the eldest prince's friends are in the inner sect, but there are not many core disciples. Therefore, even though he is a direct disciple, the eldest prince still often hangs out in the inner sect.
Walking in front of Yun Chen, Zhou Yuan clasped his fists slightly and said, "Your Highness."
Next to him, Nangong He smiled playfully and said, "Brother Yuan, everyone is waiting for you, why did you come here?"
"Wait for me?" Zhou Yuan suddenly felt flattered.
Everyone knew that he broke into the Seven Star Tower today, so they didn't have any doubts. They all came to the inner mountain peak to wait.
The eldest prince Yun Chen immediately stretched out his hand and threw a key to Zhou Yuan, then pointed to a nearby mansion and said: "We are all friends, so we should stay together, so I will make the decision for you and choose for you.
Don't dislike this mansion, the surrounding mansions are all occupied by your own people, so you don't have to worry about being bullied in the future."
"Your Highness, please worry." Zhou Yuan was startled at first, then clasped his fists, how could he dislike it.
Nangong He pointed to the two mansions on the left and right, and said quickly: "Brother Yuan, I will live here, and Sister Ruobing will live over there. You won't have much trouble finding us in the future."
Zhou Yuan was stunned again, feeling that something was wrong, "Why do you want to put me between you two?"
Before Nangong He could explain, Yun Chen came over, patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother, you are so lucky. Others are still single, but you can hug each other and be surrounded by flowers..."
Before they finished speaking, Nangong He and Su Ruobing both had a blush on their faces.
Several black lines appeared on Zhou Yuan's forehead.
"Your Highness, how can you say that? It's not like that. Brother Yuan is just my brother." Nangong He quickly opened his mouth to defend.
Indeed, when Zhou Yuan brought back the news about her brother Nangong Yu and later guided her to open the martial arts seal, her gratitude to Zhou Yuan could no longer be expressed in words.
However, everyone looked at each other, raised their heads and laughed.
Yunchen even gave the two women a look that we all understand.
Zhou Yuan coughed dryly and quickly changed the subject: "Stop standing outside the door, let's go in and talk."
With that said, Zhou Yuan opened the door of the mansion and invited everyone to enter.
Su Ruobing was the last one to follow in. Zhou Yuan saw that she remained silent, so he joked: "Junior sister, we will all be neighbors from now on. What do you think?"
Su Ruobing immediately rolled her eyes at him, "Junior sister, you got started later than us. You are the junior brother, and I am the senior sister. Do you understand?"
"Okay junior sister." Zhou Yuan nodded solemnly.
Su Ruobing's face darkened, she stamped her feet angrily, turned her head and ignored him.
It wasn't until he walked into the mansion that Zhou Yuan discovered that the mansion was full of dust and had not been cleaned. He felt embarrassed for a moment because he wanted to hold a banquet to entertain everyone.
Unexpectedly, Yun Chen shouted, and everyone started to help Zhou Yuan clean up.
In less than an hour, the entire mansion was completely transformed.
Night falls.
Zhou Yuan lit candles and held a banquet in the main hall to entertain everyone.
"Everyone, I'm really in a hurry. Don't take it personally. Eat well and drink well." Zhou Yuan toasted to everyone.
The wine, meat and dishes on everyone's table were all bought from down the mountain.
The daily life of a cultivator is not just boring meditation practice. Some business-minded disciples will open restaurants at the foot of the mountain to earn spiritual stones from other disciples.
The wine is all brewed by them, the vegetables are grown by themselves, and the meat is low-level earth spirit beasts caught from the mountains.
Zhou Yuan finally toasted Yunchen with a glass of wine and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for taking care of me these days."
"Why are you so polite?" Yun Chen waved his hand, "This simple banquet should be to celebrate your promotion to the inner sect, brother. There is no need to thank me."
Yun Chen might not take the promotion of ordinary disciples seriously, but he valued Zhou Yuan very much, if not for anything else, just because Zhou Yuan was willing to stand up to him even though he was not familiar with him at the meeting of heroes.
Go out and help him out.
This resolute friendship cannot be replaced by anyone.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone talked about many topics. The eldest prince, Yunchen, also brought the topic to the current situation of Seven Star Academy.
"Nowadays, the phenomenon of cliques within Qixing Academy is very serious. On the one hand, it is my third brother Yun Zheng, and on the other hand, there are the children of the nine great families. Although the academy is very peaceful, in fact, secretly, even
Many elders are forming cliques for personal gain, and they all have their own positions."
Yunchen said these words to Zhou Yuan.
After all, everyone except Zhou Yuan basically knows many things.
Zhou Yuan had a look of astonishment on his face. He had just arrived and he didn't really know much.
In fact, from the two brothers Gu Lin and Gu Yuan, we can feel that there is still some gap between the Seven Stars Academy and the martial arts holy land that everyone aspires to in Zhou Yuan's imagination.
