[The previous chapter has been updated, don't forget to refresh, my darlings!]
Zhu Haohao was completely stunned by Rong Zi's words.
"Wh...what?" He blinked blankly, thinking he had misheard.
Rong Zi pointed to his seven apprentices and continued speaking.
“It’s not just the two of them, all seven of them are actually my apprentices. We didn’t want to attract attention before, so we concealed the true relationship between us.”
The reason she concealed the fact that she was the sect leader of Rongling Sect was mainly because her strength was not enough to protect her disciples.
After all, her apprentices are all incredibly talented.
What if someone sets their sights on her and tries to steal her away?
Another point is that the master-disciple duo of their Rongling Sect does indeed look a little comical.
But now they have to participate in the sect competition.
Her identity as the sect leader of Rongling Sect was impossible to hide, no matter how hard she tried.
Since that's the case.
Then I won't pretend.
The truth has come out.
She, Rong Zi, is the sect leader of Rongling Sect.
He is the master of seven geniuses.
Zhu Haohao was stunned for a while before waving at Rong Zi with a smile.
"Miss Rong, you really know how to joke."
Are all seven of them her apprentices?
He's not stupid.
How could he possibly take such a clumsy joke seriously?
Don't they even know who these people are?
Leaving aside Qi Yufei, the young master of Lingyi Valley, let's talk about Ling Mo.
How could a Nascent Soul stage expert possibly become a disciple of a Qi Refining stage cultivator...?
No, we're already at the Foundation Establishment stage.
Ling Mo, a powerful cultivator at the late Nascent Soul stage, would only be crazy if he were to become Rong Zi's disciple, a mere Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.
What Zhu Haohao didn't know was that Ling Mo was already at the Nascent Soul stage.
After all, his current cultivation level is only Golden Core, so he cannot discern Ling Mo's cultivation level.
Rong Zi spread his hands, looking completely innocent, and asked in return, "Do I look like I'm joking with you?"
"Isn't that right?" Zhu Haohao pointed at Xi Ling'er and said, "I remember, back when we were in the Demon Extermination Squad, that was probably the first time you met Miss Xi, wasn't it?"
He couldn't guarantee anything about others, but Miss Xi definitely had no connection whatsoever with Rongling Sect.
He was certain of that.
Rong Zi nodded. "That's right."
That was indeed the first time she had met Xi Ling'er.
Zhu Haohao smiled. "Then why do you still say you're not joking?"
It's riddled with flaws.
Rong Zi calmly replied, "That's when she became my disciple. You can ask her if you don't believe me."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Haohao subconsciously looked at Xi Ling'er again.
Xi Ling'er met his gaze and nodded seriously.
"That's when I became your disciple."
This is the truth.
Absolutely no falsehood.
only……
Judging from Zhu Haohao's expression, he clearly still didn't believe it.
Zhu Haohao nodded perfunctorily, smiling as he did so, "Okay, okay, I believe you, alright?"
Rong Zi: "..."
Xi Ling'er: "..."
Ning Lingling tilted her head and leaned closer, "Big brother, why don't you believe she's our master?"
"Is that even a question?" Zhu Haohao pointed at her and Xu Chi. "Besides the two of you, look at the cultivation levels of the other five. Even Yun Jing is almost at the Golden Core stage, right?"
This group consists of genius cultivators.
If they wish, any one of them could be exceptionally appointed as a personal disciple in one of the five major sects.
The fact that they would join Rongling Sect is already shocking and puzzling enough.
If your master is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, then that's simply...
Ning Lingling straightened her face and said, "So what? Who decided that people with higher cultivation levels can't take people with lower cultivation levels as their masters?"
Zhu Haohao scratched the back of his head.
"There's no such provision in the regulations, but..."
"But what?" Ning Lingling pressed on.
Zhu Haohao hesitated for a moment before saying, "The reason why cultivators take on masters is all for their own future and cultivation level, isn't it? Who would be so foolish as to take someone with a lower cultivation level than themselves as their master?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that what he said might not have been a good idea.
Zhu Haohao quickly explained to Rong Zi, "I'm sorry, Miss Rong, I didn't mean your cultivation level was low, I just..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ning Lingling interrupted him.
"You're clearly saying my master's cultivation level is low!"
Zhu Haohao choked for a moment, "Uh..."
This has completely baffled him.
Although he was saying that Miss Rong's cultivation level was low, he absolutely did not mean to say anything bad about her.
After all, he was very clear about Rong Zi's abilities, aside from his cultivation level.
Seeing that he was speechless, Ning Lingling snorted and said, "Although my master's cultivation level is low, my master is powerful. She is definitely more powerful than your master. She is our master. Even if you don't believe it, she is still our master."
Zhu Haohao: "..."
Even more powerful than his master?
Isn't this joke a little too fake?
His master was a Mahayana practitioner.
In the end, Zhu Haohao still didn't believe Rong Zi's words.
Rong Zi didn't explain further to him.
If you don't believe it, then don't believe it.
When the facts are presented to him later, he will naturally believe it.
