Chapter 148: Reciprocity (1/2)

Chapter One Hundred Forty Eight

Wangyue Peak, the main peak of the Luoxia Mountains, ushered in the most lively ceremony today. Venerable Zilou personally presided over the ceremony for the inaugural honorary elder Yang Teng.

This was the most lively celebration in the history of the Zilou first line. All three generations of disciples and elders and deacons attended. Twenty second generation disciples came. Among them, Su Zhiyi didn't participate on the excuse of being unwell, and all the other disciples in the Luoxia Mountains were present.

Disciples from the four generations down and those outside disciples are naturally not eligible to participate in such a grand ceremony, and Mochizuki Peak does not have such a wide space to accommodate so many people, so it is limited to three generations of disciples.

When the auspicious hour arrived, Venerable Zilou announced the start of the ceremony, ”Please Yang Teng come on stage and take up the post of honorary elder!”

Yang Teng came to the ceremonial stand and gave a deep gift to the Venerable Zilou, ”The disciple Yang Teng has seen the Venerable.”

Without the gift of mentoring and apprenticeship, Yang Teng's inner respect for Venerable Zilou does not need to be expressed in these forms.

”Yang Teng, you are willing to join me in the purple building line, to contribute to the Luoxia Mountains, to maintain the dignity of the purple building line, even if you give your life for this, you will not hesitate!” Venerable Zilou asked loudly.

Yang Teng replied loudly: ”The disciple must abide by the rules of the Zilou line. If there is any betrayal, five thunderstorms will blow!”

Venerable Zilou created the Zilou line until now, no matter whether he is accepting disciples or preaching, he does not pay attention to the cumbersome process. As long as he can abide by the rules and is willing to pay for the Zilou line, he is a qualified student.

”The old man announced that from now on, Yang Teng will be a member of the Luoxia Mountain Range, and he will be granted the title of honorary elder. He has the same status and status as Liang Dongyun and others. You must not deceive him because Yang Teng is young!” The voice of the disciples was heard in the audience.

The disciples had already received the news in advance, so they were not surprised at this time.

Zhu Yiping looked at Yang Teng on the stage, feeling very strange in his heart. A few days ago, he took Yang Teng to the Luoxia Mountains. At that time, he just marveled at Yang Teng’s ability to comprehend alchemy and felt that Yang Teng had entered. After the line of Zilou, he is willing to work hard, and if he gets the favor of an elder, he will definitely do something in the future.

Unexpectedly, Yang Teng soared into the sky, and in a blink of an eye he became the honorary elder of the Zilou family. He would now call Yang Teng the uncle.

Is it luck or power?

Zhu Yiping shook his head secretly. The world of genius is not comparable to that of ordinary people like himself. It is said that Yang Teng's alchemy is far above the meaning of the fifth master, Bo Su. Yesterday, the fifth master proposed to compete for alchemy, but Yang Teng was finally caught Vomiting blood.

How can such a powerful strength be compared to a little disciple of oneself? If you can get Yang Teng's advice or two, maybe your alchemy will be upgraded to a level from now on.

Zhu Yiping didn't have any jealousy or dissatisfaction in his heart. What he thought was that he could also be regarded as Yang Teng's guide. By relying on this relationship to get closer to Yang Teng, his own benefits would be indispensable in the future.

He thought so, but other disciples didn't think so.

There are many gray-haired elderly people watching the ceremony.

Venerable Zilou received thirty-five disciples throughout his life, and these disciples of his had also accepted many disciples, some of whom were older.

Now seeing a sixteen-year-old boy standing on the stage, becoming an honorary elder, and later his uncle, most people are not convinced.

But no one dared to stand up and question the decision of Venerable Zilou. Didn't you see Su Zhiyi's face today?

The ceremony was very simple, and soon came to the last item. Venerable Zilou handed a purple jade medal to Yang Teng.

This is the status symbol of the Zilou disciple.

The branch of the purple building spreads its branches and leaves. The disciples' sphere of influence is not only in the Luoxia Mountains, but also not limited to the Izumo Empire. There are purple building disciples throughout Dongzhou.

In order to identify the identity and prevent the same kind of cannibalism from happening, every disciple has a jade card that symbolizes his identity.

Yang Teng took the jade medal in both hands and held it respectfully.

The jade plate is dark purple, on one side is a towering tall building, and on the other side is depicted with four characters: Honorary Elder. In the lower left corner is a character Yang.

Yang Teng knows that the dark purple jade plate represents that he has the same status as Liang Dongyun and others, and the honorary elder expresses his identity.

The entire Luoxia Mountain Range originally had thirty-five deep purple jade medals, and the thirty-sixth in his hand. He is a second-generation disciple of the first line of Zilou.

The jade plates of the three generations of disciples are slightly lighter in color, lavender. The front is also a tall building, and the back shows the identity and name of the purple building and which Dongfu belonged to.

Zhu Yiping holds a lavender jade medal.

The four generations of disciples are Baise Pan Ziyu brand, and the fifth generation of disciples are pure white jade.

There is no sixth-generation disciple in the Zilou family yet, so it has not yet produced a jade medal of this level.

Afterwards, Venerable Zilou announced that the appraisal of his disciples was about to begin, and he asked all disciples to treat it correctly.

”Congratulations, Junior Brother Yang!” Yi Hua and others came to the stage, congratulating Yang Teng one after another, and Yang Teng responded one by one.

Yang Xin was very dissatisfied, and mumbled: ”Dignified Zilou, the honorary elder inauguration ceremony, this is too shabby.”

In her opinion, this was not as grand as Fenglei Town's scene of welcoming the messenger back then, and it was completely unworthy of the status of the third brother.

However, Yang Teng knew that this was already the largest ceremony held in the Luoxia Mountains. Venerable Zilou was indifferent to fame and fortune by nature, and he had never been keen on high and meaningless things.

If it weren't for the three generations of disciples to get to know this honorary elder, Venerable Zilou wouldn't even hold a ceremony of this level. He would gather a few second generation disciples and announce that it would be over.

At the end of the ceremony, Yang Teng greeted the seniors, and then returned to his cave with Yang Xin and Ximenye.

Since the peaks around the main peak already had their owners, Yang Teng's cave had to be arranged farther away, and it seemed very remote.

In terms of location, it is not even as good as the Dongfu of some three-generation disciples.
