Several sword-cultivating disciples were sitting together in amazement, when suddenly a shadow appeared behind them.
Several people were stunned.
"Jiang, Senior Sister Jiang? What's wrong?"
"No problem, you guys continue chatting."
The woman stood up gracefully, a gentle smile on her lips.
A few people nodded blankly, looking at her leaving back, and looked at each other in confusion.
Just now, why did they feel that Senior Sister Jiang was a little scary...
And when Jiang Zhisi left, just as they said, the smile on his lips disappeared completely when he turned around.
He suppressed his inner anxiety.
She tiptoed and came to Li Lian's side.
"Fourth Elder." She regained her composure and saluted politely.
Li Lian saw her and waved his hand, "What's the matter?"
"What does the Fourth Elder think of Senior Brother Ji Xiao's cultivation at the Golden Core stage?"
Li Lian touched the whisk, pondered for a moment, and said: "Ji Xiao is only twenty years old, but he has already formed a pill. Looking at the entire cultivation world, there are very few people like him. He is extremely talented and can be considered an amazing talent."
A dark trace flashed across Jiang Zhisi's eyes, and he said calmly: "What the Fourth Elder said is very true. Senior Brother Ji Xiao is indeed hard to find someone who can rival him."
Li Lian nodded, his brows relaxed, and he was in a very happy mood.
Any sect that has a young person with such amazing talent will be proud of it without exception.
"What do you think about the fact that the Fourth Elder concealed Senior Brother Ji Xiao's cultivation level?" Jiang Zhisi asked.
"Hmm?" Li Lian paused while stroking the whisk, then raised his eyes to look at him. The joy on his face faded and his brows furrowed slightly. "What do you mean? Just tell me directly."
Jiang Zhisi smiled, his gentle face as calm and indifferent as ever.
"Fourth Elder, Zhisi's point is that since Senior Brother Ji Xiao is already a Jindan-stage cultivator, he should not participate in the sect competition. This will not help Senior Brother Ji Xiao improve his cultivation, and it will also be unfair to other participating disciples."
Li Lian's brows relaxed slightly, "That's true."
He turned his head and looked at the young man with a stern face and an arrogant demeanor in the Bagua mirror, and said leisurely:
"But now that Ji Xiao is already on the ladder, it seems inappropriate to suddenly call him down."
"Why not have Zhisi invite Master here and find an excuse to take Senior Brother Ji Xiao away? This way, it won't hurt Senior Brother Ji Xiao's reputation, and it won't break the rules. By the way... Master can also ask Senior Brother Ji Xiao why he concealed his cultivation level."
Li Lian narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "Your master doesn't know about this, too?"
Jiang Zhisi smiled and shook his head, "I don't know."
"Well..." Li Lian touched the whisk again, "Go ahead, I'll do as you say."
Jiang Zhisi bowed his head and saluted, "Yes."
......
Avoiding everyone, Jiang Zhisi sent a sound transmission note to the second elder Jian Xiu with a cold face.
At this time, Hong Taiyong, who was sleeping in the bushes, immediately sat up from the bushes after receiving the sound transmission note from his beloved disciple.
Without saying anything, he shouted at the top of his voice: "What happened? Did that girl Gu Yangyang bother you again? Or did she bother Ji Xiao again!"
"I told you long ago that you shouldn't spoil her like this! You keep saying she's still young! Is she still young? If you don't discipline her, she'll go to heaven! She'll definitely expose the Chongming Immortal Sect!"
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi is dissatisfied +100]
The sound transmission note in his hand did not make any sound for a long time. Hong Taiyong frowned and shook the sound transmission note in his hand in confusion.
Jiang Zhisi, who was standing under the tree, was silent for a moment. After a while, he said, "Master, the Fourth Elder asked you to come to the Cliff of Repentance."
"Brother...he concealed his cultivation level. Now he has reached the Golden Core Stage..."
"What?! Wait! The master will be here soon!"
The sound transmission note was interrupted. Jiang Zhisi looked at a small piece of black ash on the ground. He glanced at the Bagua mirror with his eyes becoming colder and colder.
......
The second elder arrived very quickly.
Everyone saw a streak of light passing through the sky, and a broad sword stuck straight into the ground!
A gray figure walked towards this side quickly.
The man who came looked middle-aged like Li Lian, but he was more bloated and fat than Li Lian, with a round waist and a protruding belly. He didn't look heavy when he walked, but instead walked very briskly.
In the middle of his bald head, there was a small braid that swayed as he walked.
Hong Taiyong ignored the disciple who stood up to salute, his mind was only on his eldest disciple who had reached the Jindan stage!
He waved perfunctorily to the disciples who were bowing to him, then climbed up the tree and came to Li Lian's side.
His fat hands grabbed the whisk in Li Lian's arms, "Ji Xiao is really a golden elixir?!"
Seeing him trying to open his squinting eyes wide, Li Lian hummed, then glanced at his hand holding his whisk, humphed, and pulled the whisk back.
"Is the news reliable? Are you sure you are not mistaken?"
"Mr. Hong, are you questioning my ability?" Li Lian said unhappily.
"How could that be! I believe in you! In the entire Chongming Immortal Sect, I trust you the most!" Hong Taiyong patted his big belly and shouted. Now he didn't even mind Li Lian calling him by his nickname.
Li Lian glanced at him, knowing that he valued his two talented disciples the most, so he didn't keep him in suspense and pointed directly at the Bagua mirror and said, "Ji Xiao forcibly broke the illusion. Only those who have reached the Jindan stage or above can break the illusion with one sword. More importantly, he concealed such an important matter as the formation of the elixir. If he hadn't broken the illusion with one sword today, Chongming Xianzong would have lost a Jindan cultivator!"
"Oh - so that's what's going on!" Hong Taiyong shook his head with a smile, and the little braid on his head swung back and forth.
Seeing his expression, Li Lian knew that he didn't hear everything he said, so he turned his head away with a sour face, thinking that if he didn't see it, he wouldn't be annoyed.
He snorted coldly, "Let me tell you, Chongming Immortal Sect has always been very strict about rules! If you conceal your cultivation level, the serious consequences could be considered as betrayal!"
When Hong Taiyong heard this, he was not very happy.
"I know Ji Xiao. He must have his reasons for hiding this. He definitely has no bad intentions! How could my apprentice have bad intentions!" He bumped Li Lian's arm with his belly and winked, "So, Old Li! Let's just forget about this! I'll take him back and interrogate him! Once I find out the reason, I'll definitely give you an explanation!"
After saying this, he carefully observed Li Lian's expression and added, "I only have two disciples like this. I finally managed to get one of them to the Golden Core stage, and you grabbed him and whipped him. What if he got hurt?"
Li Lian was so angry at his shameless words that he fumed.
And you broke it? He's already a golden elixir, what can a few whips do to him?
Besides, was it him who wanted to fight last time?
The other person admitted that he wanted to be beaten and came here willingly, so how could he refuse?
