Chapter 157 An Inexplicable Sharp Pain in the Heart. (1/2)

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Chen. Since this young man came into sight, numerous rumors appeared. People held different judgments on Xiao Chen, but at this moment, all the people turned their focus on him.

He was going to deal with Patriarch Guanshan. Not to mention the fact that the majority of the people didn't have the ability, but who among them could have the courage and responsibility to proceed without hesitation?

Xiaoyue paced toward him and smiled tenderly. ”Welcome to become one of the Orthodox Path, Brother Xiao. It is a blessing to the world.”

Xiao Chen smiled slightly. ”You overpraised, Fairy Xiaoyue.” This matter was no longer his own business. It was now related to the safety of the entire East Continent. The eyes of Perfected Immortal Qing Chen reminded him of his grandmaster, Perfected Immortal Qingxuan.

At that time, in order to get him back from death, Perfected Immortal Qingxuan didn't hesitate to defy the laws of nature by using his cultivation. His grandmaster rebuilt his Immortal Body and reunited his soul. But in the end, he failed his grandmaster.

At this time, hearty laughter came from the head of the hall. Shaking a folding fan gently, Moxuan Zi looked unrestrained. He instantly won the hearts of many female disciples outside the hall. He smiled gently and said, ”In that case, Xiao Chen, do you want to become my disciple?”

”Acknowledge, acknowledge my master?” Xiao Chen stunned for a long time before he could react. Others in the hall also realized that if Jade Qing Seven were going to pass on their strength to him, he must first become a disciple of the Jade Qing Sect.

It was a great chance to become a disciple of the Jade Qing Seven! In addition, Moxuan Zi had a high level of cultivation to use and he was only half a step away from the Nascent Soul Realm. Moreover, he also managed to achieve bodily immortality in his early years. Thus, he would achieve the Immortal Realm in the future.

Moxuan Zi asked with a gentle smile, ”Why? Don't you know that before you receive the strength of the seven of us, you should first become a disciple of the Jade Qing Sect?”

Lots of female disciples outside the hall envied him very much. There were so many people would rather acknowledge Martial Uncle Moxuan than Perfected Immortal Qing Chen who was the Sect Leader as their master. It was a pity that this Martial Uncle Moxuan was too free and easy, so he was not willing to accept any disciple in his life.

However, under the eager expectations of everyone, Xiao Chen shook his head slightly. ”I'm sorry, this... I absolutely can't do this.” He understood that though Moxuan Zi looked like only a few years older than him, Moxuan Zi was actually far more than 100 years old. He should call him Senior if they only considered the age in this life.

But he couldn't take Moxuan Zi as his master. No matter how much time had passed, he would have only one master for all time. His master was Ling Yin. The things with Huangfu Xin'er and Liu Yunzheng were only matters of expediency, which didn't count at all. However, this time, in such a solemn situation, things were different. Therefore, he couldn't do it.

Everyone cast a doubtful look on Xiao Chen. It was the first time that Moxuan Zi tried to take a disciple, but he was refused in front of so many people. However, Mo Xuanzi was always so big-hearted that he would never hold a grudge against Xiao Chen because of this. He then smiled gently. ”Why? You can just tell us.”

Xiao Chen was always modest. He shook his head and sighed. ”To tell you the truth, I have already had a master. Although my master's current whereabouts were unknown, I will find her whatever happens. So... I'm really sorry.”

Moxuan Zi shook his head and smiled. ”I see. I did this without careful consideration.”

The rest of the people now also understood what had happened. Acknowledging another master without informing was a major disrespect to his current master, which was also a big taboo in the Immortals' sect. This person remained unaffected by the outside world and his loyalty to his master was really plausible. Many people nodded and praised him secretly.

Yu Yifeng frowned. He thought to himself, ”I've never heard Lil Chen mention that he has a master. He lived in the Xiao family since childhood. How can he have a master? But his cultivation methods seem to be handed down from ancient times. Could it be...”

He suddenly remembered the moment when they encountered the Ancient Immortal Clan ruin on their way to the Widespread Wintriness Sect, Xiao Chen's acts and expressions all suddenly became extremely abnormal. At that time, he also said some ravings, for example, Xiao Chen even asked him to bury him there after he died. Could it be that... Could it be that... Yu Yifeng's back was full of cold sweat and he didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
