Chapter 23 Wait, this dog is the eldest brother?

Before coming, Xiao Huo and Xuan Lao had never expected that the sect Lu Yuan belonged to would be so abstract.

And from this perspective, Lu Yuan doesn't seem like someone with a background. After all, who with a background would practice in a sect like this?

Old Xuan felt a little regretful now. Maybe he had thought too much. This Lu Yuan might not have any background at all.

But now he followed them to the foot of the sect's mountain, and asked Xiao Huo to go there to learn how to make fire.

Now if he changes his mind and rushes up the mountain to steal someone else's strange fire, it would be a bit strange and might be suspected of robbery.

Mr. Xuan was very disgusted with this kind of behavior, which was changing orders every day and going back on one's word.

If Master Xuan took Xiao Huo to do this today, what would be the difference between that and the evil disciple who wanted to kill him when he saw Bao? To accept a disciple and preach is not only to teach skills, but more importantly to teach how to be a good person.

Master Xuan asked Xiao Huo to go up the mountain to become his disciple.

Even if Lu Yuan doesn't have any special abilities, it would still be valuable if I could pass on the strange fire to him.

Xiao Huo climbed up Mount Daluo, and at the top of the mountain, he finally saw the entire picture of Daluo Sect.

"This Daluo Sect is too broken."

It was the first time in Xiao Huo's life that he had seen such a small sect. It even felt like it was not as big as the mansion of the Xiao family, a ninth-rate family in Heitan City.

And from the outside it looked shabby and dilapidated. If Shangguan Yanran knew that she had joined such a sect, wouldn't she laugh her teeth off? She would say that she had made the right decision to cancel the engagement.

Xiao Huo couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

In such an environment, it would be difficult to beg others to join the sect, so only I, a sucker, would take the initiative to come and become a disciple.

But for the sake of the strange fire, it’s not shabby.

Xiao Huo then knocked on the door.

"Anyone there?"

…

In Daluo Sect, a reminder sound rang in Lu Yuan's ears.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host. There is a new disciple outside the door who comes to pay homage to the master. The host should quickly go and recruit the third disciple of Daluo Sect!"

Lu Yuan opened his eyes upon hearing this.

"Oh? There's actually a resentful person coming to my door? I want to see who it is."

Lu Yuan never expected that, given the current situation of Daluo Sect, there would be a grudge that would rush to him to become his disciple? He just happened to be in need of disciples, because only when he had more disciples would the system issue more tasks, and the more tasks his disciples completed, the stronger he would be.

Now there is only one dog, Xiao Huang, supporting the entire sect, and there is also a burden like Chen Nanxuan who is dragging down the sect that is already struggling. It is too difficult.

It’s great to have a new disciple!

Lu Yuan quickly stood up and rushed towards the sect’s gate.

Lu Yuan came to the main gate wearing the sect leader's robe. Xiao Huo, who was outside the gate, saw Lu Yuan coming and bowed down.

"My disciple Xiao Huo was born in the Xiao family of Daqian Heitan City. I came here to learn from you. Please accept me as your disciple!"

Before Lu Yuan came over, he saw Xiao Huo already kneeling down.

Hearing his words, Lu Yuan was suddenly shocked.

Because the more I hear this, the more familiar it sounds.

Coming here because of his reputation? To become a disciple and learn from him? These two words were also what that bastard Chen Nanxuan said when he came to become a disciple.

At that time, he was short of an apprentice to complete the mission, so he accepted him as his apprentice. As a result, he regrets it very much now.

Now there is another person who came here because of his reputation. Lu Yuan couldn't tell for a moment whether he was really here to become a disciple or to play a role in a reverse role.

Lu Yuan asked Xiao Huo: "Let me ask you, why do you want to become my disciple? You have seen the current situation of my Daluo Sect. What do you want from becoming my disciple?"

Lu Yuan could see that Xiao Huo had a foundation in cultivation, and his own cultivation had already reached the foundation-building stage.

To be honest, it is extremely strange that such a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage wants to join the Daluo Sect!

It’s hard to say that he has no other purpose, but Lu Yuan really couldn’t think of what he was trying to do for a moment?

Is Tu Daluo Sect just a desolate mountain? Or is Tu Daluo Sect lacking in resources?

You can say that he has other intentions, but the key point is that there is nothing to gain in the sect now.

But Lu Yuan must ask about this matter clearly.

Xiao Huo then gave a reason that sounded quite reasonable and logical.

Xiao Huo said: "Master, I come from the Xiao family of Heitan City. Although the Xiao family is also a family of cultivators, it is just a third-rate family in the unknown small city of Daqian.

Although my disciple has some talent, he had some health problems a few years ago. His cultivation level has not improved but regressed in the past three years. He has a bad reputation outside. Later, his fiancée came to my house to break off the engagement because of this.

Even though my cultivation has recovered and I have broken through to the foundation-building stage, given my current situation, if I go to other sects, those big sects may not accept me.

Moreover, even if I were to join a large sect, as a disciple with no background and not very high talent, those large sects might not necessarily invest any resources in me.

So the disciple thought carefully. Although the Daluo Sect is now in decline, it was once glorious. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. The resources of the Daluo Sect must be more than our Xiao family.

I still understand the principle of being the head of a chicken rather than the tail of a phoenix. "

Xiao Huo had very good reasons.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

He had a health problem a few years ago, his cultivation level declined instead of improved, and his fiancée broke off the engagement, making him famous throughout Daqian.

Although his cultivation has recovered now, those big sects may not trust him, and they are unlikely to invest resources in him. What if his old illness recurs? Moreover, with so many disciples outside, those big sects may not accept Xiao Huo, whose reputation outside is quite controversial.

Xiao Huo also understood the principle that it is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

He said that instead of joining a big sect and becoming a nobody without any resources, it would be better to join Daluo Sect and enjoy all the resources of the sect.

Lu Yuan heard this and pondered in his heart.

This logic makes sense. From this perspective, this guy is quite good at calculating accounts.

However, he probably never expected that this time, he would be betting on a treasure by joining the Daluo Sect.

As the sect leader, I am cheating.

As long as you practice well after getting started, you will achieve something in the future!

Lu Yuan: "Okay, in that case, I will accept you. From today on, you are the third disciple of my Daluo Sect, and also my third disciple."

"The third disciple?"

When Xiao Huo heard this number, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He originally thought that since the Daluo Sect was in such a mess, no one else would come to become its disciple except him. He didn't expect that there would be a master?

There is always someone stronger than the strong, right? Xiao Huo followed Lu Yuan into the Daluo Sect and asked him what was going on with the two brothers in front of him. Lu Yuan said, "Your eldest brother, Xiao Huang, is this one."

Lu Yuan pointed at the little yellow dog following him.

The little yellow dog woofed and wagged its tail at Xiao Huo.

Little Yellow Dog: He is right, I am your senior brother.

Xiao Huo was stunned.

Wait a minute, a dog is the sect’s eldest senior brother?

Xiao Huo was sweating profusely in an instant.

What the hell, what kind of sect is this? Is it too late for me to quit the sect now?

Xiao Huo regretted it instantly. He originally thought he was on a pirate ship, but he never expected that after entering, he found out that this was not a pirate ship at all.

This is Zootopia, right? Could it be that the two senior brothers before him were animals? Why did a clown like him become their apprentice?
