“Master, you know my strength. That’s why I want to go to the secret place of the Sword Sect to cultivate spiritual secret techniques. That way I can become even stronger and surpass you as soon as possible. I really want to fight you.”
"A secret place?"
"It's not impossible, after all, you are a disciple of the Sword Sect. But you must be careful of your tracks when you go, so that no one finds out. Be careful when you go to cultivate!"
Unexpectedly, the Sword Sect Master granted her request. She quickly got up and headed towards that place. With the Sword Sect Master's permission, she could naturally get the key to that place. She smiled and waved goodbye to the Sword Sect Master, her face beaming with joy.
"Goodbye, Master! Your disciple will certainly live up to your expectations and cultivate diligently. I'm leaving now..."
Seeing her carefree demeanor, the Sword Sect Master shook his head helplessly. When would this girl ever grow up? He then went to cultivate his own techniques.
Xie Zhou successfully entered the Sword Sect's secret area and found that it was indeed hidden in the city, with a beautiful surrounding environment.
Xie Zhou was in a great mood, so much so that he was practically strutting around. Upon seeing the pavilion in front of him, he couldn't wait to go inside.
Xie Zhou repeated his previous actions and began practicing his spiritual techniques.
She stayed there for a whole month. When she finally came out, she looked at the blazing sun outside and instinctively shielded her eyes with her hand—it was too dazzling.
There have also been some changes within the Sword Sect.
Xie Zhou successfully digested his gains and emerged from seclusion!
After she came out, Luo Fentian and Song Wu also came to check on her, fearing that she might go into a state of demonic possession and do something outrageous. Fortunately, Xie Zhou successfully emerged from seclusion, his strength had greatly increased, and even his appearance was different.
"Junior sister..."
"Everyone's been saying you've been in seclusion for a while now, and that's been quite a long time."
Just as Xie Zhou was about to speak, a disciple hurriedly ran over, bowed slightly, and said, "Senior Sister Xie, the sect leader is calling for you."
"good!"
"My two senior brothers, you can go about your business. I also have some things to take care of."
Song Wu was about to say something when Xie Zhou left with that disciple.
"You mean the sect leader also wants to say something to Junior Sister Xie?"
"I'm not sure, but I guess I need to report on how many people have joined the sect recently..."
Upon receiving this news, the Sword Sect Master immediately summoned Xie Zhou to discuss matters.
Xie Zhou hadn't even had a proper rest when he was summoned by the sect leader, let alone exchange a few words with anyone else.
Sword Sect told Xie Zhou, "Disciple, congratulations on your completion of seclusion. However, during your absence, Sword Sect has recruited many new disciples, so we would like to ask you, as our senior sister, to help lead the new disciples of Sword Sect to the outer reaches of the Monster Mountain Range for training."
The mere mention of the Warcraft Mountains brought back unpleasant memories for Xie Zhou.
She did see many new faces on her way here. Xie Zhou was their senior sister, not to mention that the sect leader had spoken to her, so of course she had to go.
However, she still asked a question.
"Master, is that place still safe? I hope there won't be any more strange riots?"
"The situation on the outskirts of the monster camp is alright, otherwise I wouldn't have sent them out for training. With my disciple's guidance, I'm at ease with you all..."
Xie Zhou agreed.
"Alright, Master, your disciple will guide them through the training!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Xie Zhou then went to the Sword Sect's cultivation technique pavilion.
Xie Zhou arrived at the gate with ease, only to find it wide open and without any gatekeepers. What was going on?
Is this how open the cultivation technique pavilion is now? There isn't even a doorman, which is quite surprising. Xie Zhou went inside and looked around. He noticed that the kind old man was no longer there. Xie Zhou used to ask the old man about cultivation techniques every now and then. He had borrowed and read almost all the books in the cultivation technique pavilion, so he naturally became familiar with the old man.
"Uncle? Are you there? Uncle Shu? Is anyone home?"
Xie Zhou called out tentatively a few times, but no one responded. Looking at the empty cultivation technique pavilion, only the books were still there.
She was a little puzzled. Where did all these people go?
The old man was no longer around, but the two were like relatives. The old man would tell Xie Zhou about the more powerful martial arts techniques, and Xie Zhou would often bring the old man some good food.
After Xie Zhou went inside, he looked around but didn't see anyone. So he went in to return the cultivation manuals he had borrowed and took out the books one by one. Suddenly, a rustling sound came from inside.
"Cough cough cough... Miss, what's wrong?"
An elder got up from the ground, and Xie Zhou was almost scared to death.
She gently patted her chest and said, "Hello, where are the people in this cultivation technique pavilion? Elder, are you the new manager?"
Xie Zhou noticed that the elder was wearing a medal from the Cultivation Techniques Pavilion on his chest, and realized that the elder of the Cultivation Techniques Pavilion had actually changed.
The elder chuckled and picked up the books one by one from the table, saying with a smile, "You should choose Miss Xie. The sect leader and the previous administrator have both been talking about you. Xie Zhou, you are quite famous!"
"But wasn't the old man who managed things very well before? Elder, I'm not doubting your abilities, but there needs to be a reason for suddenly changing people!"
The elder didn't mind, he simply placed the books on his own bookshelf, climbed the ladder, and Xie Zhou followed behind to help him.
"Actually, because someone frequently visits our cultivation technique pavilion, the sect leader plans to upgrade its security to prevent it from being discovered by other unscrupulous individuals or stolen from. That old man is over seventy years old, so the sect leader plans to arrange an easy job for him. Don't worry, he won't be abandoned by the sect!"
"Okay, that's good."
To be precise, the reason why the Technique Pavilion was used so extensively was because Xie Zhou brought many techniques to the sect, and the Sword Sect's leader raised the level of security for the Technique Pavilion several times.
Xie Zhou, standing behind the elder, finished processing all the cultivation techniques and secret manuals.
The elder smiled and asked, "Miss Xie, thank you for your help. Where are you going to find the secret manual?"
"I want to see the secret techniques acquired by the successive leaders of the Sword Sect, and see which one suits me best?"
"The belongings of the past Sword Sect Masters should all be on the seventh floor. Go and go find them."
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Elder."
"Hahaha... What are you saying, girl? I'm the one in charge of managing this place, and I'm also the one who helped you find the secret method. It's my duty. Go!"
"good……"
The elder pressed the mechanism, and soon several staircases appeared on the ceiling of the cultivation technique pavilion.
