Chapter 1580: Wilde’s Transformation
The celebration was just a simple one. After all, celebrating now wasn’t very suitable because the Xuantian Dao Sect had no walls. Other than the main peak, the surroundings were desolate, and it wasn’t very comfortable.
Long Chen also only intended to do this as a formality. After all, many of the disciples that had joined had joined because of him. He drank a bowl of wine with every disciple, agreeing to have a proper celebration once the sect was rebuilt.
To be able to drink wine and even personally touch bowls to Long Chen made these disciples extremely moved. After drinking a bowl with every disciple, he had Guo Ran take his place.
Guo Ran liked showing off and being the center of attention the most. Fortunately, this wine was ordinary wine, or Guo Ran would have collapsed from drinking all of it.
Long Chen returned to the Xuantian Tower and could see the other Elders busily working. The Tower Department Head was in the midst of designing the rebuilding plan of the Xuantian Dao Sect.
As for the old Xuan Master and Li Tianxuan, they were sitting in front of the Xuantian Tower, drinking some tea. Looking at the disciples celebrating down below, they were filled with emotion.
After recruiting a large batch of disciples, any sect would have trouble managing them. That was because each genius thought highly of themselves. That resulted in a compet.i.tion between them once they joined the sect to see who was really the strongest. They all wanted that position.
Practically, all sects would let them fight amongst themselves. That made it easier for them to see the potential and specialties of their disciples. Some sects would even encourage this fighting.
However, in a fight against tigers, there would have to be injuries. If there were too many, things would grow out of control. If this many geniuses joined any other sect, they would definitely fight day and night.
However, they were all obedient upon joining the Xuantian Dao Sect. They were even humble and amicable. That wasn’t because their characters were simply like that, but because the Xuantian Dao Sect had a monster like Long Chen.
Any genius would lose their qualifications to be arrogant in front of Long Chen, so seeing Long Chen personally welcoming them, taking the initiative to drink with them without the slightest arrogance or airs, they would be idiots if they dared to be arrogant. If even such a figure wasn’t arrogant, then they couldn’t be.
So even though this many geniuses had joined at once, the Xuantian Dao Sect wasn’t thrown into chaos at all. Everything was being done peacefully.
“Come and sit. You must be tired. Have some tea.” Li Tianxuan indicated for Long Chen to sit, grabbing the teapot.
However, Long Chen was one step faster, taking the teapot and filling the old Xuan Master and Li Tianxuan’s cups first before pouring his own.
The tea was emerald green and a bit thick, but it had no fragrance. It was a top grade tea, with all its flavor concentrated within.
Long Chen drank a mouthful, but he didn’t know anything about tea, so he didn’t feel anything in particular.
“I feel like an unlucky star. Wherever I go, things get thrown into chaos. It was the same in the Eastern Wasteland’s branch sect.” Long Chen bitterly smiled.
Back then, the Eastern Wasteland’s branch sect had also been destroyed because of him. He had spent a huge sum to rebuild it.
Now that he had come to the Central Plains, it was just a few years before he caused even the main sect to be destroyed. This bad luck seemed to strike everyone around him.
“You can’t put it that way. Until the end, no one can tell whether something is good or bad. All you see is part of the process, not necessarily the result,” comforted Li Tianxuan.
He knew more about Long Chen’s situation than anyone else. However, there were some things that he definitely couldn’t tell Long Chen.
However, every time he thought of the final ending of all Heaven-Defiers, Li Tianxuan felt pain. There was nothing he could do about that. People cultivated to do as they pleased. They would rather be a firework exploding with light than a sad speck of dust.
“Xuan Master, has Wilde awoken?” asked Long Chen suddenly. He was very curious why he didn’t see Wilde anywhere.
“Ah, that’s right! Come with me!” Li Tianxuan led Long Chen and the old Xuan Master into the Xuantian Tower. Wilde was sleeping inside a pool.
This pool was originally composed of the Alldevil monster’s essence blood, but it had now been fully absorbed by Wilde. Wilde had grown even larger now. He had surpa.s.sed six meters in height and was even larger than Hu Xiaolin.
His entire body was now covered in silver lines. They looked like thousands of silver serpents swimming across his body. Those lines seemed to be alive.
What shocked Long Chen the most was that Wilde now had two horns on his head that were bent slightly like a bull’s. Rather than pointing outward, they pointed upward.
Wilde’s mouth was bulging slightly, and two fangs were protruding out of it. Wilde no longer looked simple and pure like before. He looked like a giant monster.
“What’s going on?” Long Chen was shocked, almost unable to believe that this was Wilde.
The old Xuan Master said, “The Barbarian race exists only in legend. They have many sub-races, but there aren’t any detailed records of what those are. No one can say for sure what’s going on with Wilde. However, Long Chen, you have to be careful. If you can’t control Wilde, he will…”
