Chapter 1561: Conferment (1/2)

Wolong Xuan smiled at Wenren Huaiyu and said: “Not bad.”

Truth be told, there were far too many people with similar talents as Huaiyu in Crouching Dragon, so the a.s.sessment of not bad was already quite generous.

“Good.” Li Qiye smiled back. “I’m not taking any disciples, so let her join your sect and revere you as her master.”

Wolong Xuan was taken aback. Even if she wanted a disciple, how could someone like Huaiyu possibly be a candidate? She could only be a disciple of the cliff at best.

“Alright, if you think she can be my disciple, I’ll take her in.” Wolong Xuan solemnly nodded after returning from her thoughts.

Putting aside Li Qiye’s current status, just the fact that he was her savior in the past was enough for her to take in Huaiyu.

“Brat, go greet your master already.” Li Qiye ordered.

Huaiyu was quite sharp. It didn’t take long for her to understand the situation. She immediately kneeled before Wolong Xuan. “Master, allow me to bow my head!”

Wolong Xuan smiled after seeing the clever girl. She took out a treasure and tied it around the girl’s neck. “This is master’s greeting gift for you.”

She was too young, so the value of this gift naturally eluded her. Nevertheless, she was still very happy and bowed again before standing to the side like a well-behaved child.

Such a development left everyone dazed. The Wenren Clan Master and the ancestors didn’t expect this at all. It was something they didn’t even dare to think about.

Becoming a disciple of the cliff meant soaring to the sky and bringing honor to the family. Such an achievement was already incredible. But now, Huaiyu had just become Wolong Xuan’s first and only direct disciple.

But it was indeed reality. To the Wenren Clan, this wasn’t just bringing honor to the family; it was a carp crossing the dragon gate to become a true dragon!

Huaiyu’s position at the clan has changed dramatically. She was no longer a b.a.s.t.a.r.d and no one would dare to point their finger at her. She was now the jewel and pride of the family!

All the leaders watched in shock with naked envy glimmering in their eyes. They would be wild with joy if any of their disciples were to enter the Crouching Dragon Cliff. Becoming the Sky Dragon King’s disciple was a lifetime of glory!

“Dongfang Cong, come forward.” Li Qiye took another sip and said slowly.

Cong came forward without slight and slowly kneeled there without uttering a single word.

“You are a victim in this storm but I like your heart and consider you a talent. Because of this, compensation shall be made. I will bestow you a Heaven’s Will Secret Law from the Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom.”

Dongfang Cong’s eyes widened in shock since he could hardly believe his own ears. Everyone from the Dongfang Clan was stunned as well.

They wouldn’t dare to dream of a Heaven’s Will Secret Law. However, such a good matter had just fallen down from the sky and landed on them.

“I…” Cong couldn’t express his feelings.

“What are you waiting for, thank Young n.o.ble Li already,” Wolong Xuan spoke in his stead.

“Thank you, Young n.o.ble.” Cong bowed his head repeatedly.

After bestowing the merit law, Li Qiye spoke again: “Wenren Jians.h.i.+, come forward.”

Jians.h.i.+ followed Cong’s footsteps and didn’t dare to say anything while Li Qiye grinned at him.

Being stared like this by Li Qiye left Jians.h.i.+ frightened. He didn’t know whether it was a blessing or a disaster.

The rest of the Wenren Clan held their breath as well.
