Chapter 16: A passing visitor, how can we talk about cause and effect

"Master." Xu Chen bowed.

"No need to be so polite. I asked you to come here to discuss something."

"Some time ago, I found a child with spiritual talent in a small town in Leizhou. He has a good relationship with me."

"So I want to take him in as a registered disciple and keep him by my side to teach him, but the sect stipulates that an elder can have a maximum of five registered disciples."

"So our relationship as master and disciple ends here. From now on, you will be an ordinary disciple of Daxi Sect."

"But if you have any difficulties, I will help you as appropriate."

He was quite unhappy with the indifferent words of his cheap master. The relationship between master and apprentice has been broken up, so you should at least give me some compensation.

Is this the result?

"Then I will call you Master for the last time." Xu Chen bowed slightly.

In the distance, a wind spirit bird flew through the clouds and landed in the small square.

Xu Chen understood what this meant, and directly boarded the Wind Spirit Bird and flew towards the earth below.

From beginning to end, You Xian never looked back at Xu Chen.

"With just ordinary talent, it's no big deal if you were born in a wealthy family. It'll only take three to five hundred years."

"As a passing traveler, how can we talk about cause and effect?"

You Xian raised his head and looked through the clouds, and saw the Floating Palace located high in the sky.

"With the talent of a Saint, and a favorite of Heaven, I wonder to what heights he can bring the sect."

After Xu Chen came back, he sat on a rock by the small river outside his home, staring blankly at the flowing river, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.

After staying there for an hour, Xu Chen finally smiled with relief.

"My mentality is still not good after crossing over. The beatings I suffered in society in my previous life were much more serious than this."

"The only pity is that the secret realm that registered disciples can enjoy is gone."

Xu Chen picked up a small stone beside him and threw it into the stream.

The next day, outside the sect, Xu Chen stood outside the square welcoming guests wearing a brand new Daxi Sect Taoist robe.

There are special people to welcome the important people, while people like Xu Chen only need to welcome the disciples from other sects and guide them.

"Three brothers, please follow me."

Xu Chen brought three disciples from the Holy Word Palace on a special spirit boat and went to the sect to find a place to live that was specially prepared for these outer sect disciples.

As for the Floating Sky Palace, only the great men who have embarked on the path to immortality can go there.

The spirit boat shuttled quickly within the sect, and the three Holy Word Palace disciples behind Xu Chen looked disappointed.

"Doesn't your sect have many disciples from the Three-Colored Fox Clan and the Spirit Flower Clan? Why don't they come out to greet us?" asked the disciple from the Holy Word Sect disappointedly.

"This kind of grand event belongs to our Leizhou human race. Outsiders are not qualified." Xu Chen said in a kind manner. This was the unified statement between him and those disciples before the welcoming ceremony.

"If we let those beautiful female disciples from other races come out to greet us, wouldn't that be treating people based on their looks?" These were the original words of an elder in the sect.

"It's a pity. Rumor has it that all those female disciples are stunningly beautiful. Although they are not very powerful, they can still be taken home as concubines."

"I heard that among the tri-colored foxes, the ones with red tails are the most coquettish."

"Is this true, little brother?"

At this moment, the spirit boat landed exactly where they lived.

"Three senior brothers, please note that accommodation has been arranged for you." Xu Chen took this opportunity to change the subject.

After seeing off this wave, Xu Chen went to the gate to prepare to welcome the next batch.

Just as they were waiting in line to welcome the outer sect disciples, a huge white boat suddenly appeared in the distant sky, just like the giant spaceship seen in science fiction movies in their previous life.

A big flag stands above the residence.

"This is the Cangmu Divine Sect of Shenmu Continent, the strongest sect in Shenmu Continent."

Before Xu Chen was puzzled for long, someone told him the answer.

A mysterious voice sounded from the Floating Heaven Palace. "Daoist Mu Yuan, we haven't seen each other for 3000 years."

"That small town is closest to my Shenmu Continent. I didn't expect that you would take advantage of it in the end." An unhappy voice came from the huge boat.

"Haha, for the sake of the human race and the human emperor, we will do everything we can to discover the geniuses with holy qualities."

"I believe that Daoist Fellow Mu Yuan will also find a suitable disciple."

The thousand-foot-long giant boat slowly descended. On the Floating Sky Palace, the Grand Elder of the Daxi Sect and a group of sect leaders personally walked down the steps to greet them.

Xu Chen, who had been a member of the sect for half a year, had the honor of meeting the top leader of the Daxi Sect.

"I've broadened my horizons. These are all grand scenes." Xu Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The Daxi Sect’s Grand Elder’s disciple-accepting ceremony lasts for three days, and the last day is the final day before one is officially considered to be a disciple.

In the past two days, arrangements were made for the elders and disciples of each sect to exchange and learn from each other. Each sect took turns sending its own geniuses to compete with the geniuses of other sects.

But these were all arranged in the Futian Palace, and Xu Chen was not qualified to enter.

"I feel like I've become an NPC."

At the banquet to entertain guests, Xu Chen became a waiter and went around serving dishes at each table.

The rest of the time is spent solving various problems for these outer sect disciples.

In three days, the long-lost feeling of working like a dog at work came back to me.

Even at the last moment of the ceremony, he was unable to see what the genius with saintly talent looked like.

After the apprenticeship ceremony ended, Xu Chen also received his remuneration for the three days.

"200 spirit coins, the sect is quite conscientious."

Xu Chen, riding on the skylark, looked at the small bag of spirit coins in his hand, weighed it, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"No, last time I met a crane who talked to me, this kind of mission like other big sects almost always gives 200 spirit coins a day."

The flying skylark shook its head.

"To satisfy, give as much as you can."

Xu Chen discovered that these flying beasts all had their own characteristics. Some were silent, while others were chatty. Most of them were chatty and could occasionally share useful information.

As soon as he returned home, Xu Chen suddenly felt tired.

I looked at the time and it was just past noon.

"No more repairs today, take a half-day break."

Xu Chen was fishing alone by the creek with a fishing rod.

"People like me who have cheats should be the worst off."

Seeing that no fish had been caught yet, Xu Chen couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"Junior brother, I just settled the mission reward, do you want to go out and have some fun?"

"Recently, the Three-Colored Fox Clan is holding a market at Chunfeng Pavilion. Do you want to go and experience it?" Huang Kaishan approached Xu Chen with a lewd look on his face.

At this moment, Xu Chen suddenly regretted provoking this guy.

Huang Kaishan lives less than three miles away from Xu Chen and is his closest disciple.

"Brother Huang, I am not yet an adult."

"If you take me to that kind of place, no matter it is the laws of the Human Emperor or the rules of the sect, you will go in and be whipped." Xu Chen said lightly, holding the fishing rod.

"I'm just taking you for a massage, don't hurt me!"

Huang Kaishan immediately took three steps back.

"Forget it, if you don't go, I'll go. The massage technique of that fox girl is very ecstatic."

"Combined with the art of illusion, it is truly unforgettable." Huang Kaishan said as he raised the token, and a flying spirit beast landed on the edge of the stream.
