It seems that Teacher Wang Li doesn't know what happened just now, but it is obvious that she must be a member of this faction.
Because Zheng Hao was equivalent to Li Feng who invited her in person, and they did not have the same factional stance, it was impossible for Zheng Hao to do this.
Zheng Hao's positions in the sect and in this faction are both very interesting.
He is the gatekeeper in the sect and the liaison in the faction. The two positions combined are a perfect match.
"We're here, Heritage Island."
The initiation ceremony was very simple. It only involved handing over the Life Sword and the Palace Master's certificate to prove the identity tokens of Teacher Wang Li and Li Feng. Then, Li Feng's Swordsman Academy's black iron student identity token was taken away and replaced with an outer disciple's green paulownia-made outer disciple token.
"Which department do you want to join? The Inspection Office, the Demon Exorcist Palace, or the Caifeng Hall?"
"Demon Exorcist Hall." He Lin did not hesitate. He thought about the pros and cons and chose the position of Demon Exorcist.
Teacher Wang Li, Zheng Hao, and the old man in charge of registration were all stunned.
"Demon Exorcist Temple? Are you sure?"
"Yes, sir." The old man's aura was obscure, but majestic. He was obviously a swordsman who was more powerful than a swordsman. So He Lin was very respectful to the old man.
"Okay, here are your job tokens and your Demon Slayer suit. Keep them safe. I've made backup copies for you, just for your records. You'll need to find the person in charge of the Demon Slayer Hall to arrange your specific job. Xiaohao, take care of him. Xiaoli, you can't go later. You'll need to wait on Shanmen Island. Xiaofeng, once you've arranged your job, come over. You need to choose the sword technique you want to inherit."
"Yes." The three people nodded in agreement.
This old man's arrangement was flawless, and his observation skills were astonishing! He only took a glance to see that Zheng Hao and I had formed an alliance. He's truly a formidable figure! No wonder he became the head of the Heritage Pavilion.
The head of the Demon Exorcist Hall was a burly, fierce old man with scars all over his face. He lacked the good temper and professionalism of the head of the Heritage Pavilion. He simply glanced at He Lin and waved his hand, leaving the matter to a down-and-out middle-aged man beside him.
This down-and-out middle-aged man seemed to have a good relationship with Zheng Hao. He even flattered Zheng Hao and always responded to Zheng Hao's requests.
He Lin was assigned to Bishui City as a demon slayer. Bishui City was one of the four famous cities. Although the city was large and had many affairs, the demon slayer was an exception.
The Exorcists were only responsible for exorcising demons, and few demon cultivators dared to cause trouble in the Four Great Cities. So, the most dangerous position had become an easy one.
This is the trick. Without Zheng Hao's help, He Lin would probably be exiled to a faraway place. In fact, the distance of the place and the complexity of the affairs are of no concern to He Lin, but He Lin needs Zheng Hao to do these things for him, so that he owes Zheng Hao a favor.
This is the easiest and most direct way to join this faction.
Furthermore, Bishui City was adjacent to the Swordsman Academy, where his connections were concentrated. Furthermore, Bishui City was the capital of the Bishui Sword Sect, where the sect had the greatest influence, and his sister's name was most useful.
Bishui City has the advantages of a large population, great power, and few things to do. It is indeed the most helpful place for one's own cultivation and accumulation of personal connections.
Moreover, more than ten months had passed. Although Bishui City was thousands of miles away from Qingshan Town, the few people I had arranged should have arrived by now. These few idle people of mine could be used just in time.
Returning to the Heritage Island, I met the head of the Heritage Pavilion again, the kind and wise old man.
"What inheritance do you choose?"
He Lin had already made his choice and answered without hesitation: "The Green Water Sword Technique."
"'Green Water Sword Technique'? It's indeed a good choice. It's the most orthodox sword technique of the Green Water Sword Sect. It can be said that it doesn't require the foundation of the Green Water Sword Sect. Unfortunately, its training speed is not the fastest, nor is its power the greatest. The sword technique is mediocre and easily restrained. Few people actively learn it anymore, and most people learn it out of necessity. Because it's the cheapest. You're a student exempt from the entrance exam, so you should have a strong backing in the sect. You could choose other sword techniques, so why did you choose this cheapest one?"
Zheng Hao glanced at Li Feng and the old man in surprise. He was surprised at Li Feng's choice and also surprised that the old man would ask such a question. It was a very strange scene.
"Because I learned from the books in the library that the four existing inheritances that can be cultivated to the level of Sword God are Bishui, Qingyun, Tianshan, and Huohai. They have become the names of the Sword Sects and have been passed down. The Bishui inheritance is the only method in the Bishui Sword Sect that can be cultivated to the level of Sword God. I want to practice the most complete method, and I will cultivate to the highest level of the sword cultivation system - Sword God." He Lin answered seriously.
After hearing Li Feng's answer, Sun Hao was stunned. The old man was silent for a moment and said, "Sword God?! That's such a distant name. Although I don't think you can cultivate to the legendary Sword God realm, I respect your choice and hope you won't forget your choice today. Come with me, I will personally take you to Sword Tomb Island to receive the most authentic Bishui inheritance."
"Thank you, Master."
Zheng Hao was left behind. Looking at the two people who had vanished, he muttered to himself, "Sword God! It's really... like seeing my innocent self from childhood."
The more I practiced, the more I realized my own mediocrity, and how many geniuses there were in this world. I also realized how difficult it was to advance to the next level! Gradually, my childhood ambitions faded, leaving only practical concerns.
When choosing a technique, one no longer chooses the one that can be cultivated to the highest level, but rather the one that is fastest or most powerful, gradually becoming a swordsman who works for profit, rather than a pure swordsman who works hard to become a Sword God.
"Naive!" Zheng Hao said this to Li Feng with disdain. However, his tone also contained deep envy. Envy of Li Feng's innocent heart.
"I hope that reality will not make him become a person who works hard for desires and interests." Zheng Hao sincerely hopes that Li Feng can continue to practice in such an innocent and pure way, although he knows that it is a fairy tale and something that is impossible to happen in reality.
Let’s talk about Jianmu Island. It is an important place for the inheritance of swordsmanship. It is the most heavily defended part of the formation and the last of the seven islands.
The inherited swords were enshrined in tall and magnificent stone halls.
"This is the Bishui inheritance. You can choose to accept it."
This hall was the grandest, housing the most inherited swords. Based on his main consciousness, He Lin could tell that waves of varying strengths were emanating from above.
