Chu Nan looked at Li Xian who was being supported, and felt happy.
[If I were to fight you seriously, I wouldn't necessarily lose, but I'd certainly win, so I'd change the concept.]
"If you want to fight me, you must first resist my sleeping talismans. As for these two sleeping talismans, even someone as powerful as me or Qin Keqing, who is at the Golden Core stage, would inevitably fall asleep, let alone a sword cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage."
Originally, Qin Keqing was worried that Chu Nan would really lose the duel with Li Xian, thus making his position as the direct disciple unstable, and the authority of the direct disciple would be damaged, and the senior management would be questioned.
Now that Chu Nan had cleverly established his authority, Qin Keqing's beautiful eyes showed satisfaction. She glanced at Chu Nan and thought to herself, I never realized that this guy had so many complicated thoughts.
To be honest, the dean was also surprised by the immediate effect of Chu Nan's sleeping talisman.
What made him appreciate Chu Nan even more was his three-part strategy: first, leveraging the situation; second, brainwashing; and third, establishing authority.
In this way, his position as direct disciple was completely secured.
The dean said nothing from beginning to end and just watched as a bystander. The more he looked at Chu Nan, who looked ordinary, the more he felt that he was not simple.
I'm afraid that this girl named Chu Nan is more scheming than the senior sister in front of him who is only responsible for being beautiful but has a simple mind, and she will play a greater role in the future of the sect.
Chu Nan was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and ordered, "Tear off the sleeping charm on Li Xian."
As soon as the sleeping talisman on Li Xian's body was torn off, Li Xian jumped up and his eyes opened instantly, as sharp as a sword. When he saw Chu Nan looking at him disdainfully, he remembered that he was subdued in an instant by the two talismans.
Although I don't want to admit it, I have to accept the reality.
His eyes changed several times, and finally the sharp sword energy and the resentment of dissatisfaction disappeared. He bowed to Chu Nan and said, "Disciple Li Xian, greetings to Senior Brother Chu Nan."
This time he spoke clearly and concisely, and was convinced from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Nan stopped when he saw that things were going well. His arrogant expression changed and was replaced with a gentle smile. He personally helped Li Xian, who was bowing, to his feet and said, "Junior Brother Li Xian, there's no need to be so polite."
The two of them acted like brothers, and everyone was moved by what they saw.
The dean then took two steps forward and said, "This time, the secret realm will be opened. The teams will be led by our direct disciples Long Aotian and Chu Nan. Each team will have 25 people. Now everyone can freely choose. Those who choose Long Aotian will stand on the left, and those who choose Chu Nan will stand on the right."
This time no one had any objections. After all, one of them had an innate sword body. Even though he was only in the Qi Refining Stage now, even though his sword body was damaged and his spiritual roots were defective, he was still someone they looked up to.
As for Chu Nan, even Li Xian, who ranked first in the inner sect, was convinced. What else could they not be convinced of?
As soon as the dean finished speaking, Li Xian walked to the right without hesitation and chose to follow Chu Nan.
Yang Yongdong and Hu Xianxu, who ranked second and third, looked at Li Xian, then looked at Long Aotian, who was holding his head high, with a slightly raised corner of his mouth, as if he looked down on the heroes of the world. After a little hesitation, they both chose Long Aotian.
After the top three in the inner sect took sides, the other disciples considered and made their choices one after another.
Among these fifty people, there are only two outer disciples, one is called Qian Duoduo and the other is called Cheng Chen.
There is no need to say much about Qian Duoduo. Yes, that's right, he is Chu Nan's big client, the one who is stupid but has a lot of money.
As for Cheng Chen, she is Ye Chen’s little fan girl in the outer sect.
[It's really pitiful for this little fangirl. She is devoted to Ye Chen, but she is always in a corner where Ye Chen can't see her, watching him from afar but never disturbing him.]
[Even Ye Chen didn't know that there was such a girl with no sense of existence, who was secretly in love with him.]
Many readers like this little fangirl and feel bad for her.
After hearing Chu Nan's thoughts, Qin Keqing's impression of Ye Chen became even worse. Although the little fangirl's infatuation with Ye Chen had nothing to do with Ye Chen, as a woman, seeing how pitiful she was, she naturally sympathized with her and blamed Ye Chen.
Qian Duoduo has a good relationship with Chu Nan, so naturally he chooses to stand on Chu Nan's side.
Little fan girl Cheng Chen really dislikes Long Aotian, because Long Aotian's looks are actually comparable to her brother Ye Chen. This is the original sin.
So the little fan girl Cheng Chen naturally chose Chu Nan.
In the end, everyone had chosen their sides, and two or three more people chose Long Aotian. After adjustments by the dean, each side led twenty-five people.
After the team is divided, it is time to go to the sword tomb to choose the spiritual sword that is destined for you.
For a sword cultivator, the most important thing besides the sword techniques is the spirit sword itself. Sometimes the spirit sword is even more powerful than the sword techniques.
It is said that there was once a cowherd boy who accidentally obtained a magic sword. Under the guidance of the magic sword, the cowherd boy actually became a top swordsman, looking down on the world and his contemporaries, and had many wives and concubines.
Since then, cattle herding has become a popular profession.
Many people wanted to replicate that legendary swordsman, but unfortunately, no one could succeed. They just left it alone,
Just let it go for a lifetime.
For sword practitioners in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, a natal spirit sword is often hard to come by, and the sword tombs with thousands of swords hidden in them are the most likely to be encountered.
Of course, even if you enter the sword tomb, there is a high chance that you will not encounter your natal spirit sword.
There are currently fifty disciples, plus Long Aotian and Chu Nan, a total of fifty-two people. Among them, it would be good if five of them could encounter their natal spirit sword in the sword tomb.
Led by Qin Keqing, everyone went to the sword tomb.
An hour later, the sword tomb was in sight.
Although the sword tomb was blocked by a high wall and isolated by a huge formation, the sharp sword energy still leaked out, making people feel palpitations.
On the left side of the gate is a stone lion with a stone sword in its mouth.
On the right is the guardian of the sword tomb, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, a magic sword placed across his legs. Although his hair and beard are white and his face is full of wrinkles, his waist is straight and there is no trace of old age on his face. His spirit and energy cannot be underestimated.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but everyone felt that he was not an old man, but a sword, an extremely sharp sword.
[As expected, the strongest person in Shaolin Temple is the humble Sweeping Monk. This sword tomb guardian doesn't look simple either, and is probably ridiculously strong.]
Qin Keqing, Chu Nan and Long Aotian stood side by side.
Qin Keqing glanced at Chu Nan after hearing his inner voice and whispered, "Master said this guardian has been here since he joined the Qingxuan Sect. Even though Master doesn't know his age or his level of cultivation, he is the pillar of our Qingxuan Sect."
Chu Nan understood. This was like the ancestor of a sect in a fantasy novel about cultivating immortals, or a nuclear weapon in the modern world. It was a strategic-level force.
But Chu Nan was a little confused. In the original novel, the Qingxuan Sect was destroyed by Ye Chen’s sword, but the guardian did not take action?
Or was he also reduced to ashes by Ye Chen's sword?
