Chapter 410 Fake News
Chapter 410 Fake News
There are countless people with high talents in the world. How could Fairy Mei deserve the favor of Elder Zhang?
Elder Mei was not a fool, he knew that this might have his reasons - after all, he was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and Elder Zhang accepting Fairy Mei as his true disciple was the same as making friends with himself.
But apart from this, Tang Zhi’s mediation is absolutely indispensable.
But Elder Mei was not in a hurry to thank him. Instead, he pushed forward and said, "Mei has another matter to ask you - except for my granddaughter, Fairy Mei, young friend Tian Lin has not yet been determined in rank;
Unknown, what does Elder Tang think? "
Tian Lin was delayed in Chenxiantang for more than half a year and had not participated in the sect's assessment.
Although he returned to the sect later, he entered the secret realm again. After leaving the secret realm, he went on the stage of life and death again.
This has been delayed again and again, and it is still unclear whether Tian Lin is an inner disciple or an outer disciple.
"Tian Lin?"
When Tang Zhi heard the name, he frowned, not knowing that Elder Mei had already shown murderous intent in his heart.
"Tian Lin was able to defeat my wife. His strength is beyond doubt. In my opinion, he is qualified to be a true disciple."
His words surprised Elder Mei again, and Elder Mei couldn't help but ask, "Can Tian Lin really become a true disciple?"
It’s not that Elder Mei doesn’t believe in Tian Lin’s talent, but that Tian Lin’s foundation is too shallow.
In the entire Daoist sect, Tian Lin did not have any support from any noble family. Not only that, he had made quite a few enemies.
Elder Mei meant that it was enough for Tian Lin to be an inner disciple. But from what Tang Zhi said, it seemed that Tian Lin had a chance to become a true disciple.
"This matter is a bit difficult, but Tang is willing to help!"
Elder Mei felt that Tang Zhi was just trying to get by with him, but was only trying to get the best out of him.
Tang Zhi said that he could run errands for Tian Lin and do the work of a true disciple. Even though this was just a perfunctory remark, it also meant that Tian Lin's becoming an inner disciple was a foregone conclusion.
His purpose of this trip was to test whether Tang Zhi had any intention of revenge on Tian Lin, but he still couldn't find any flaws in Tang Zhi.
"As for Tian Lin's role as a true disciple, young friend Tang should just do what he can!"
After saying this, Elder Mei continued, "My daughter can become a true disciple, all thanks to the help of Young Friend Tang. I am not a conscienceless person. To express my gratitude, I am willing to offer the clues to the Dharma Real Pill!"
The Dharma Real Pill can help a Jindan cultivator achieve the Nascent Soul stage, so its preciousness needs no further explanation.
Sure enough, Tang Zhi looked at Elder Mei with emotion after hearing his words.
He opened his mouth, but finally shook his head: "The Dharma Real Pill is too precious. What Tang has done is not worth such a pill. This pill should be left to little friend Mei!"
How could Elder Mei really give the Dharma Pill to Tang Zhi?
The clue about the Dharma Pill he mentioned was actually a false clue that would lead to death.
If Tang Zhi was really greedy and followed the clues he gave to get the elixir, he would surely die even if he had the cultivation level of Nascent Soul.
But I don’t know whether Tang Zhi saw through Elder Mei’s intention, or whether he was truly selfless - in any case, Tang Zhi finally refused.
"In this case, I owe you a favor. As long as you don't let me down, if you need my help in the future, just write a letter to the Goddess Sect, and I will never refuse."
After Elder Mei finished speaking, he placed a piece of contract paper in front of Tang Zhi.
This deed paper is not an ordinary deed paper, but a deed paper with the inscription of Hou Tu.
It can be said that Elder Mei's words were absolutely true. As long as Tang Zhi did not become an enemy of Elder Mei in the future, Elder Mei was willing to help Tang Zhi. This time Tang Zhi did not refuse. He took Elder Mei's contract paper, bowed to Elder Mei and said, "Then I will be disrespectful to refuse! But whether Tian Lin can become a true disciple, I can't guarantee it now."
Elder Mei said bluntly: "It is too difficult for Tian Lin to become a true disciple. Whether he can succeed or not, I will appreciate Young Friend Tang's kindness!"
Elder Mei couldn't find out anything more, so he simply bowed and said goodbye to Tang Zhi.
He finally returned to Tianlin's cave. Mei Xiangu, who had been waiting for a long time, was already impatient. Without waiting for her grandfather to sit down, she ran to Elder Mei, hugged Elder Mei's arm and said, "Grandpa, was it really Tang Zhi who killed his wife?"
Elder Mei shook his head and said, "I can't tell whether Tang Zhi is loyal or treacherous. The only thing I'm sure of is that he is quite capable."
He said, "Elder Zhang of the Daoist Sect has no friendship with anyone, but in the end he was willing to preside over the life-and-death duel between Tian Lin and Elder Wu. This honor is probably not for Sect Master Tang or Elder Wu, but for Tang Zhi."
After saying this, he said to Mei Xiangu: "Come with me to Wanzhang Peak in a while. From now on, you will be the disciple of Elder Zhang."
Mei Xiangu knew that the identity of a true disciple was very important to her.
Apart from anything else, with the status of a true disciple, she would no longer have to rely on Tian Lin to enter and exit the secret realm in the future.
"As for Tian Lin - after a while, even if he can't become a true disciple, it shouldn't be difficult for him to become an inner disciple."
Tian Lin, who had been silent at the side, raised his head and asked in surprise: "Is this what Tang Zhi meant?"
Elder Mei nodded and said, "So I said that Tang Zhi is quite capable. Not only can he help Fairy Mei plan for the position of a true disciple, but he also seems to have a certain grasp of you."
The position of a true disciple is not so easy to obtain. After all, the position of a true disciple can be said to be an internal quota for children from aristocratic families.
There are so many young men from aristocratic families eyeing one position, and these young men from aristocratic families are intermarrying with each other.
How could anyone possibly give Tian Lin, an outsider with no background, the position of a true disciple?
He doesn't have a Nascent Soul grandfather who can come from the Goddess Sect at any time to stand up for him.
Not to mention the true disciples, even the inner disciples are the quotas for the children of those aristocratic families. In addition to his ability, Tang Zhi's broad mind can also be seen in helping Tian Lin plan for the position of inner disciples.
But Tian Lin didn't believe that there was anyone in the world with such courage and breadth of mind!
Let’s not talk about the revenge for the murder of his wife, let’s just talk about the revenge for the murder of his son - although it was not Tian Lin who killed his eldest son, the person who killed his eldest son was Tian Lin’s Bao Jian. How could Tang Zhi not hate Tian Lin for killing his son?
"Could it be that I really am judging others by my own standards?"
Tian Lin frowned, and Elder Mei said, "Your worry is not unnecessary. In the world of cultivation, you must be on guard against others."
Elder Mei didn't believe in human hearts, so he always carried a thick piece of paper with him. He believed more in the oath he made before Hou Tu than in human hearts.
"If Fairy Mei becomes my true disciple, it will be inconvenient for her to live with me in the future."
Tian Lin smiled and bowed to Mei Xiangu, saying, "I would like to congratulate Senior Sister Mei."
He once again addressed Mei Xiangu as "senior sister", which greatly touched Mei Xiangu.
She said, "I'm going to the Wanzhang Peak, and I need a sword. So forget about other gifts. How about you give Cui'er to me?"
Tian Lin had congratulated her verbally before, but now he shook his head.
Mei Xiangu said, "As expected, you only know how to talk big. When it comes to the substantive things, you are stingy."
Tian Lin said: "Other things are easy to talk about. Even if Senior Sister Mei asks me for the Goddess Tree seeds, I can find a way to help you find them. But you want Cui'er - Cui'er is my sword, but her stay or departure is always decided by her. How can I make my own decision?"
"Well, let Cui'er decide for herself."
