“It’s alright, Sect Leader. We won’t hold you back if we go in together,” Fu Hongming said. “Besides, Third Junior Sister’s meridians have already been repaired.”
"You found the Blazing Flame Fruit?" Sect Leader Xiao asked in surprise.
That's somewhat understandable. Shi Qinxin, that girl, could easily kill any disciple of the same level as long as she had a sword in her hand. Besides, two elders were also going in with her.
"That still won't work... All four of you going in? Forget about it!" He had already promised Qin Mingcheng.
Fu Hongming patted the coffin he was carrying: "There aren't four, there's also Master."
As a filial disciple, how could he possibly leave his master here alone?
Sect Leader Xiao: "..."
These guys from Sword Guard Mountain still can't understand human language, just like always.
"Master Uncle, please don't be so heartless. We can discuss this properly," Jiang Xi said, her back to the air.
Sect Leader Xiao: "..."
"Second Senior Brother, the Sect Leader is here." Shi Qinxin straightened him up.
"Thank you, Third Junior Sister," Jiang Xi smiled, revealing her bright white teeth. "I remember that the Sect Leader Uncle still owes Master ten favors. How about we consider this a way of repaying them?"
The other three realized they had almost forgotten about this; it was the second brother who was quick-witted.
When Sect Leader Xiao saw that Jiang Xi had actually brought up the favor left by Jing Shu for Tian Ning's sake, the other three hadn't even objected... That was something Jing Shu had specifically instructed him to do before his accident, to exchange for ten favors owed to him... If one day, his worthless disciples came to ask him for help, he should try his best to grant them ten requests.
For five whole years, the members of the Sword Guardian Mountain had never spoken, but now they've actually brought it up.
Sect Leader Xiao felt a pang of sadness. "Alright, I agree."
At the same time, as if remembering something, he hurriedly added, "Little Ningning is the disciple I have chosen. She will inherit the entire Ten Thousand Swords Sect in the future. You should all treat her well and not bully her."
The four people: "..."
Hehe, now that they've entered their Ten Thousand Swords Mountain, there's absolutely no way they'll let them out!
Having finally gotten the sect leader to agree, the four of them tacitly refrained from arguing.
During their conversation, almost all the disciples below arrived. Although only ten people could enter the Sword Tomb to choose a sword, the escorting elders would carry a recording stone with them, and the scenes inside the Sword Tomb would be played out to the outside world.
The disciples were all eager to see what kind of sword these ten people could forge.
It is said that a genius once emerged from the Sword Tomb with a divine sword possessing a sword spirit, while others returned empty-handed. As for the outcome, no one can say for sure.
Seeing that most of the people had arrived, Sect Leader Xiao confirmed the top ten contestants who would enter the Sword Tomb, and then began to call out the spots for those who would accompany these disciples into the Sword Tomb and protect their safety.
Typically, there are two elders and one distinguished senior disciple.
Wenren Xue had been waiting for this moment. The quota for accompanying the personal disciple not only represented the sect's high regard for her, but also enhanced her prestige among the disciples!
Her master has already assured her that she will be the one chosen this time!
After announcing the names of two elders, Sect Leader Xiao did indeed call out Wenren Xue's name, but... he didn't stop there, and called out another string of names: "Fu Hongming, Jiang Xi, Shi Qinxin, Long Aotian."
Wenren Xue: "???"
Now, the attention of those disciples who were originally envious of Wenren Xue for being accompanied by her personal disciple was diverted.
"So many protégés? Who are they?"
"I don't know him, I've never heard of him..."
