The Heavens: Falling Ink From Douluo

Chapter 1549: Entering the Inner Gate and Junior Master

"Old Sect Master..."

Hearing Yunshan's words, the great elder Yun Leng couldn't help but scream out.

Although the old sect leader Yunshan's evaluation of him was very pertinent.

It pointed out that he was indeed considering this matter from the perspective of the sect.

But the order for him to apologize was also true.

How could this make him feel so embarrassed?
But to Yunshan, being beaten for making mistakes and standing at attention for being beaten was a matter of course. He was able to speak up and give an unbiased conclusion to Yunling's actions in this matter because Yunling was one of his own and respected the rules and regulations of the Yunlan Sect. He did not consider how Yunling felt. At the very least, he did not want these two geniuses who could become the future pillars of the Yunlan Sect to leave in anger or become dissatisfied because of Yunling's attitude.

Therefore, seeing Yunshan did not answer.

He didn't even bother to look away.

Yun Leng also understood the specific position of this matter in Yunshan's mind.

He gave a wry smile.

I was going to apologize.

However, he was stopped by Lin Chaoci's words.

Because the path Lin Chaoci took was completely unexpected by him and everyone else present, even Yunshan was stunned for a moment.

"Senior misunderstood."

"The boy is indeed here to join the Yunlan Sect."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have participated in the assessment... Although part of the reason was that I was worried that Xiaodie would not pass and be rejected, so I participated in the assessment to be on the safe side... Otherwise, I would have been exempted from the examination and entered the sect a long time ago."

"But I don't dare to ask for a disciple."

"One reason is that...what the great elder said is true."

“Compare your heart to your heart.”

“Put yourself in their shoes.”

"I can understand and appreciate the concerns that the great elder just mentioned."

"The other reason is: I want to find a master who is suitable for me, preferably one who can give me guidance on swordsmanship."

"If not, forget it."

“The road ahead is long, and we must keep searching.”

"Learn a set of exercises."

"Practice some fighting skills."

"We can't just stop moving forward because of fear, right?"

"But since there is... Moreover, Senior, you just said that it's okay if I don't want to take Sister Yunyun as my master. There are so many seniors in the Yunlan Sect, there must be one who is suitable for both of us... So, I dare to take you as my master!"

"I wonder if you are willing to agree to this, Senior?"

Lin Chaoci's wording is rigorous and well-organized.

At last, he bowed.

The novel idea made many people present look bright.

Even Yunshan was somewhat tempted.

However, he still had to consider the opinion of his disciple Yun Yun.

It’s not that he has to consider the disciple’s mood before accepting one.

Rather, he didn't want to compete with his apprentice for a disciple.

Yun Yun, the disciple, invited Lin Chaoci.

Then, Lin Chaoci wanted to worship him as his master.

What is this thing called?
But Yun Yun really had no objection to this, and even got inspiration from it, agreeing: "That's right, the teacher has mastered a kind of sword intent, and he is also the only one in our Yunlan Sect who has sword intent. Having him guide you can be said to be the right medicine for your condition... Great Elder, if this is the case, you should not stop me, right?"

"of course not!"

Yun Leng breathed a sigh of relief and responded quickly.

The tone was firm.

It's not an act.

But it comes from the heart.

To put it bluntly, if Lin Chaoci becomes Yun Shan's disciple, he will be Yun Yun's junior brother. Now that Yun Yun has become the sect master, it will not affect the inheritance of the Yunlan Sect. There is no need to worry that Lin Chaoci is the kind of person with ulterior motives who may steal the foundation of the Yunlan Sect. Moreover, Lin Chaoci can also become one of the high-level leaders of the Yunlan Sect, which is beneficial to the stability of the inheritance of the sect master's lineage.

Of course.

There are two other factors involved.

The first factor is that Yunshan came forward. Unlike Yunyun, the new sect leader, Yunshan has been in charge of the Yunlan Sect for more than two hundred and forty years. He was appointed at the age of twenty-nine and led the Yunlan Sect to establish a foothold in the Jiama Empire with the strength of a five-star Dou Wang. Along the way, there have been countless ups and downs. Not to mention that Yunling is a junior in seniority, equivalent to Yunshan's nephew, and in the Yunlan Sect, which is still the orthodox one, he has no right to deny Yunshan. Even if he has this qualification, he has no way to speak in front of Yunshan's glorious resume and more than two hundred and forty years of accumulated prestige, and can only let it go.

The second factor was that Yun Yun agreed. Compared with the idea of ​​poking a hole in the roof, the proposal of opening the skylight would undoubtedly be more likely to be approved. With the precedent of Yun Yun wanting to accept a disciple and even having a high probability of wanting to help Lin Chaoci become the young master of the Yunlan Sect, it would not be a big deal for Yun Shan to come forward and accept a disciple.

"That's fine."

"Since you have no objection."

"Plus...I'm also quite optimistic about this kid."

"Moreover, the above proposal was made by the child himself."

"Then I will accept a little disciple!"

"Give you Yunyun a little junior brother!"

Yunshan clapped his hands and laughed, and settled the matter in no time.

Small matters can be dealt with in a big way.

Hold small meetings for big events.

No meetings for important matters.

As the old leader of the Yunlan Sect, although he had no intention of continuing to hold power, all matters of the sect, big or small, were decided by Yun Yun, because Yun Yun was the current leader. However, he still had the power to accept disciples and did not need to ask others for advice.

However, although Lin Chaoci is a dazzling figure in front of him, Yunshan has not forgotten Xiaodie, a genius who also possesses sword skills.

The conversation turned.

Throw the question to Xiaodie.

"So...what about you, little girl?"

"Are you also going to take me as your master?"

"Or do you have other plans?"

Lin Chaoci did clearly express Xiaodie's identity in his words, but this identity of a maid was not enough to make Yunshan worry.

In fact, it’s not just Yunshan.

Yun Yun, Yun Leng, Yun Sheng and others.

Including the many inner disciples of the Yunlan Sect present.

No one thinks that Xiaodie's identity as a maid will restrict her.

Because Xiaodie has already understood the meaning of sword.

Have the power to decide where to go.

On the contrary, if she was just an ordinary person, even if she was Lin Chaoci's maid, even if Lin Chaoci was accepted as a disciple by Yunshan, no one would care about her stay or departure, and no one would care about her thoughts. This is a manifestation of the law of the jungle in the cultivation world.

And speculation ensued.

Including Yunshan.

They also prefer Xiaodie to go her own way.

Because the status of a slave is limited to when one has no power. Once one has power, no one would be willing to continue to be a dog instead of becoming a human being again. This is human nature and has nothing to do with a person's good or evil.

Therefore, in everyone's eyes, it was almost inevitable that Xiaodie would regain her freedom.

The Yunlan Sect will not prevent this operation.

As for whether Xiaodie’s behavior is considered betrayal?

Will it affect Lin Chaoci's mentality?
But if this happens, won't we end up losing both the wife and the army?

What a joke!
If Lin Chaoci's mentality is so fragile, he is not worthy of possessing sword intent!

Yunshan's personal time is limited.

The same is true for his personal energy.

Because he is over 270 years old, he is expected to live only 30 years. If he is unlucky, he may not even live that long.

It is inevitable to seek higher realms.

If it can succeed.

Become a Dou Zong.

Instantly add two hundred years to your lifespan.

If it fails.

Then you can only accept the result of slowly dying of old age.

Therefore, the joy I felt when I found Yun Yun that year was not fake.

Because Yunshan was worried about the issue of inheritance at that time.

I am afraid that after my death, there will be no one to succeed me.

Because considering the size of the Yunlan Sect, having only a Dou Wang is actually useless.

The life span of Dou Wang is too short.

About one hundred and fifty years.

Compared to ordinary people, it must be very long.

But if they compete with the Gama Empire and surrounding forces, such as the Izumo Empire, the Poison Sect, the Golden Goose Sect, etc., they will decline within a few generations.

But if there is a Douhuang in charge.

Those are two different concepts.

A Dou Huang with a lifespan of three hundred years is enough to ensure that the Yunlan Sect will have no worries in the short term. As for what will happen three hundred years later, that will be up to his descendants. Anyway, there will be no problem with the handover of his generation.

Therefore, even if it was just to teach Lin Chaoci, he would need to spare some time.

He accepted two apprentices at once.

Yunshan really can't muster that kind of effort.

It can even be said that even if Yunshan accepted Lin Chaoci as his disciple, he would still give part of the work to Yun Yun, such as: daily supervision of Lin Chaoci's practice of martial arts, allocation of resources needed for practice, improving Lin Chaoci's practical experience through sparring, and arranging Lin Chaoci's subsequent position. In short, a series of trivial matters were all handled by Yun Yun, and he was only responsible for guiding the sword intent and martial arts fighting skills, because doing so could save a lot of time and energy. In addition, it could also cultivate the relationship between Lin Chaoci and Yun Yun as a senior and junior sister.

If I accept Xiaodie as my disciple.

Even Yun Yun, Yun Leng, Yun Du and others agreed.

Yunshan will also deny it.

He said that he had no such intention. He just said that there was no need to talk about the subsequent arrangements for Lin Chaoci and Xiaodie here. These were the matters for teachers and their disciples to follow.

Everything that can be arranged has been arranged.

There is little need for apprentices to exercise subjective initiative.

But although Yunshan and others thought so, Xiaodie did not act according to their ideas. It's not that her mind was completely tamed, like an elephant with brute strength, which would be obedient even when it grows up. If this were the case, Xiaodie would not have been able to develop the sword intent. It's just like what a certain saying in the movie said: After practicing boxing, he respects me as he respects God.

It’s because I’ve seen Lin Chaoci’s abilities.

I have seen Lin Chaoci's talents.

I have experienced the huge gap from the comparison.

Only then would Xiaodie follow Lin Chaoci wholeheartedly, and even be willing to serve Lin Chaoci as a maid.

This mentality is to have extreme confidence in one's own vision after realizing one's own shortcomings in talent, and to rise in an alternative way.

To put it bluntly, for some towering trees, you are lucky enough to be able to climb up them.

Therefore, after a moment of panic, Xiaodie still responded with a slightly nervous attitude: "I may disappoint all the seniors... Wherever the young master goes, I will go. I may not be a disciple, and I may not have an identity, but I will definitely follow the young master!"

The scene was quiet for a moment.

Yunshan did not express his opinion, but instead focused his attention on Lin Chaoci, because he knew very well that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it.

Yun Yun actually likes Xiaodie quite a bit.

Sighed.

Want to say something.

But I don’t know how to start.

Because what she wanted to say to Xiaodie, in summary, is nothing more than one meaning: you have to live for yourself. Maybe you were born in a family, but you don't have to give up your future for Lin Chaoci. With your aptitude for sword intent, let alone Yun Leng and those elders who have not arrived yet, even I would be willing to accept you as my disciple. Maybe I can't give you too high a salary, but starting from an inner disciple is still feasible.

However, then I thought about it.

Xiaodie's sword intent was originally inspired by Lin Chaoci.

If there was no Lin Chaoci.

Xiaodie is still that ordinary girl.

He will never be regarded as a good seedling by everyone, or even as a successor.

If Xiaodie really listened to her.

Give up Lin Chaoci.

Want to be on equal footing with Lin Chaoci.

Such a heartless person, let alone whether he can comprehend the sword intent, even if he does, such a genius is not worthy of Yunlan Sect's cultivation.

It was inevitable that Yun Leng and others got entangled.

I want Xiaodie to break free from her shackles and develop freely.

I don’t want Xiaodie to forget her roots, so I really want to remove the shackles and let her develop freely.

Because they all wanted to take in disciples.

Even if they are men, they have no master-disciple relationship with the girl Xiaodie.

There are also female deacons in the inner sect of Yunlan Sect.

Moreover, there are quite a few.

It’s just that their realm may be a little low. The strongest one is just a Dou Ling cultivator. If they want to become an elder, they still have a long way to go. If they want to guide Xiaodie, I’m afraid they are not capable of it.

But as a substitute, it is enough.

At worst, I can ask Yun Yun for some more advice.

The title is attached to this kind of female deacon.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if this were the case?

Many people have even considered having a Taoist partner.

Of course, they didn't want Xiaodie to be their Taoist partner, but they wanted their respective Taoist partners to come forward and accept Xiaodie as their disciple. Even though there was a layer of distance between them and they were not master and disciple, being able to have a relationship with such a genius was a hundred benefits with no harm and was indeed worth a try.

But if Xiaodie really chose this.

Instead, they have to guard against Xiaodie.

To put it bluntly, you can even abandon the noble person who taught you the meaning of sword. Who knows if you will abandon me in the future for a better future?

Therefore, the scene became quiet.

Everyone is stuck at this point.

Fortunately, the breakthrough point was found by Lin Chaoci.

And was used by Lin Chaoci.

"I know what you mean."

“But it’s not good to be a maverick.”

"I still remember that on the way here, I asked about the situation of Yunlan Sect... Among them, there are direct disciples, inner disciples, and outer disciples... But there are no slaves, let alone menial servants."

"Even though you know very well that there is little difference between outer disciples and slaves."

"But when in Rome, do as the Romans do."

"I said there are no maids, so there are no maids."

"Besides, I have never treated you as a slave or a servant."

"Compared to this, the identity of a follower sounds better."

"I hope you have thoughts."

"Rather than being a puppet who follows orders."

Lin Chaoci shook his head, which inspired Xiaodie's thinking.

Hear the words.

Yun Yun and others looked at Xiaodie again.

Waiting for Xiaodie's statement.

As for the candidate who had finally climbed to the top of the mountain with great effort and was ranked third in this assessment and qualified to enter the outer sect of Yunlan Sect, as well as the candidates after him, they were ignored by Shui Lingling and no one at the scene was paying attention to them.

this is the truth.

Geniuses are entitled to be picky.

Mediocrities don't even deserve to be chosen.

"I want to go in through the inner door."

“I want to continue following in your footsteps.”

"I know you're walking very fast... Let alone catching up with you, even keeping up with you would require a lot of effort for me... But I am willing to work hard for it, hoping to stand beside you and become your sword servant."

"As for becoming a disciple, I naturally want to become the strongest one!"

"My dear seniors... please forgive me."

Xiaodie revised her beliefs and bowed to Yunyun: "Sister Yunyun, would you be willing to accept me as your disciple?"

"Still calling me Sister Yunyun?"

Yun Yun smiled with satisfaction.

He asked back, imitating Yunshan's behavior back then.

Yunshan was in a trance for a moment.

It seemed as if he saw himself back then and the young Yun Yun back then.

What is inheritance?

This scene is happening right now!
"Master!"

Xiaodie’s EQ was not low to begin with, so she bowed down immediately.

But before her knees hit the ground.

Yun Yun then helped him up using her fighting spirit.

"Back then, I started out as an inner disciple, so if you want to become my disciple, you must also start out as an inner disciple."

"But if you take other elders as your teachers."

"I started out as a direct disciple."

"You have to think about it."

Yun Yun emphasized.

Seeing Xiaodie nod firmly, he finally felt relieved.

Pat Xiaodie's head.

He smiled contentedly.

However, compared with Yun Yun, Yun Shan was more stable, although he was also very happy. He gently patted Lin Chaoci on the shoulder and explained to Yun Yun and others: "The matter of becoming a disciple cannot be rushed. Whether it is your first disciple or your little junior brother, there should be a banquet for becoming a disciple. It should be announced to all and their identities should be clarified... But considering the overlap, I think the two banquets can be combined into one, which can be said to be a double happiness... If there is no problem, this matter will be settled. You will handle this matter in the sect, and let Yun Leng help you remember it. Invite those who should be invited. Although I am old, I am still tough and I am not afraid of some people making trouble. As for me, I will check it out and will be back soon... Chaoci, I will call you like this... You should not mind if I visit you?"

"Of course I don't mind."

Lin Chaoci said so with a smile.

Nodded to Yun Yun.

Yun Yun also understood what Lin Chaoci meant.

He sent out a stream of fighting spirit, entangled Xiaodie, and flew towards the inner gate with her: "Teacher, I will take her back first and talk later..."

"This girl...what is she in such a hurry for?"

Yunshan cursed with a laugh.

He also released a burst of fighting spirit.

Taking Lin Chaoci with him, he followed.

In the process of rising from the ground, he instructed the great elder Yun Leng who was stranded in the original place: "The rest of the matter is left to you, Yun Leng... There is no need to hide the news. My Yunlan Sect has always acted uprightly and in accordance with the rules and regulations. Do you understand?"

"clear."

"Disciple respectfully sends off the old master."

Yun Leng immediately understood the profound meaning of Yun Shan's words.

He bowed from a distance in the direction where Yunshan left.

The rest of the people present also saluted.

They said in unison, but with some uneven voices: "Disciples respectfully send off the old master!"
