The Protagonist Is in the Right Position to Get Along With the Villain

Chapter 66

Seeing Li Jinzhi shake his head without a trace, Ye Cheng understood and said, "I wonder if I can refuse?"

Elder Bai was stunned when he heard this, and a stunned expression appeared on his face. "Why?

So many people want to be this Patriarch Lei's disciple, but he rejected them all! "

Li Jinzhi frowned and said with a worried expression, "Elder Bai, please don't laugh at me for the reason. How can the two of us reach the Soul Formation realm? The Ten Thousand Cloud Sect is the number one sect in Green Blaze Country, and there are countless geniuses in Yuanying. Celestial spirit roots can be found everywhere. Although the two of us also have celestial spirit roots, we know that our comprehension is not outstanding. If we find that Soul Formation realm patriarch to be our master …"

Elder Bai stroked his beard and was stunned. His initial excitement also cooled down a little. After thinking carefully, he also felt that the other party's words made sense. However, he said, "Haha, the two of you better not belittle yourselves. This old man dares to guarantee that based on the attributes of your spirit roots, that Patriarch Lei will also accept the two of you."

Li Jinzhi was stunned. "Could it be that Patriarch Lei is also one of them?"

"That's right. Patriarch Lei is a cultivator who cultivates ice-type Dharma spells. In his early years, he was unparalleled in Green Blaze Country."

Elder Bai looked at the shock in the eyes of the two people opposite him with satisfaction and said slowly, "That's right. Because ice-type spirit roots are mutated spirit roots, they are rare to begin with. In addition, it's even more difficult to find a celestial spirit root. That's why that Patriarch has never been able to accept a disciple."

Elder Bai advised, "If I could have a Soul Formation realm patriarch as my master, why would I bother to stay in this realm for a hundred years? You still want to refuse?"

The two of them looked at each other. They both understood their current situation very well. To ordinary cultivators, this might indeed be a fortuitous opportunity. However, the two of them were not ordinary cultivators at all. They might not even be Human Cultivators.

Although their strength was comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, the path that Li Jinzhi took was the path that no one had ever dabbled in before. Although it was much faster than other cultivators, even he himself did not know what side effects there would be in the future.

If one's state of mind was not good enough, they might become half-human and half-demon.

Therefore, they absolutely could not meet this Divine Transformation Realm old ancestor. According to the two of them, they didn't even need a master. They just needed to find a place with abundant spiritual Qi to cultivate in seclusion.

Li Jinzhi pulled Ye Cheng behind him and pretended to be worried. "Elder, don't worry. It's not that the two of us don't know what's good for us, but Elder Bai, think about it. There are many talented disciples in the sect, and we only have the advantage of having spiritual roots. If we use this advantage to become the old ancestor's disciples, I'm afraid we will become the target of public criticism. This is not what the two of us want. On the path of cultivation, the most important thing is the state of mind. The two of us only want to become ordinary disciples of the sect and climb up step by step with our own efforts. We don't want to spoil things through excessive enthusiasm.

Elder Bai pondered for a while and shook his head after a long while. "Sigh, in today's Cultivation World, it's really rare to see young people with states of mind like the two of you. You don't know how many young cultivators in the entire Wanxia Sect are fighting to become Ancestor Lei's disciples. Not only can they reach the sky in one step, they also have an endless supply of magic tools and spirit stones. You actually rejected such a good thing. Well, since you're unwilling, I'm afraid you're not fated to be. I'll hide the aptitude of your spiritual roots, but …" Elder Bai paused. "But there's no such thing as an airtight wall in the world. If the two of you want to go to the main hall to look for other masters, once the news reaches Ancestor Lei, he will definitely intercept you."

Li Jinzhi saw that the other party had relented and felt relieved. He smiled and said, "It's fine if the two of us don't look for other masters. Anyway, we'll just advance a little slower. This way, we can just become ordinary disciples of the inner sect."

Elder Bai didn't speak and seemed to be weighing something. Li Jinzhi didn't interrupt. After all, they were two celestial spiritual roots. If the higher-ups knew that the other party had discovered two celestial spiritual roots but didn't report it, it might implicate the other party.

"Elder, the two of us are willing to hide our spiritual roots." Ye Cheng stood behind Li Jinzhi and added with a flat expression.

When Elder Bai heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He shook his head and said, "According to the sect rules, disciples with celestial spiritual roots should be handed over to the higher-ups of the sect for further arrangements. I stopped the two of you just now because I wanted to take you directly to Ancestor Lei, but your words reminded me of a friend of mine."

Ye Cheng and Li Jinzhi looked at each other and understood that the other party was probably going to relent on this matter. However, the other party seemed to be a little too easy to talk to. "Ah, that was a long time ago.

At that time, the two of us also entered the sect together. Unlike me, who has dual spiritual roots, he has a single heavenly fire spiritual root. As soon as he entered the sect, he was valued and was directly accepted as a disciple by the sect leader. He thought that he would have a meteoric rise and that his path of cultivation would be smooth and open. However, he didn't expect that because he was too dazzling, it caused jealousy among his fellow disciples. He was actually assassinated during an experience and never returned. Instead, it was me, who has dual spiritual roots, who safely reached Yuanying. "

Elder Bai seemed to be immersed in his memories, and his expression was sorrowful. As soon as he finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and seemed to have made a decision. "Well, what the two of you said makes sense. What happens in the future will depend on your luck."

"Thank you, Elder Bai."

The two of them looked respectful and heaved a sigh of relief. Li Jinzhi held the Purple Bamboo Jade in his hand in front of the other party. "Then should the two of us report to the inner sect's Elder Ruan now?

Do we need to cover up our spiritual roots? "

Elder Bai shook his head. "No, there were too many people in the hall who saw that the two of you have heavenly spiritual roots. I'm afraid this matter can't be covered up. How about this?"

A smile appeared on the old man's face. He stroked his beard and looked at the two of them. "The two of you directly become my disciples. When the sect asks, I'll say that the two of you have a slender fire spiritual root beside your spiritual roots, which spoiled the excellent quality of your heavenly ice spiritual roots. I didn't check carefully during the examination, which resulted in a mistake. That's why I directly accepted you into my sect."

Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng were stunned when they heard this. Then, they smiled bitterly. No wonder this old man was so easy to talk to and didn't care about the two of them bargaining with him. It turned out that he was waiting for them.

It was true.

When Bai Jinxing saw the strange expressions on the two of their faces, he couldn't help but frown. "What, don't tell me you don't like me?

I'm a Yuanying cultivator after all. Am I not qualified to be your Master? "

Li Jinzhi looked at the other party. He wanted to refute but didn't know what to say. Now that he thought about it, the other party had stopped them and brought up Patriarch Lei. It was most likely a trap. If the two of them really agreed, the other party would take the two of them away. Patriarch Lei probably wouldn't really accept them. At that time, they would delay the matters in the main hall. This Elder Bai would probably reluctantly accept them as disciples.

This old man was really going all out in order to accept disciples.

Ye Cheng frowned and asked, "Elder Bai, what kind of Spirit Root does that Patriarch Lei have?"

Elder Bai stroked his beard and chuckled. His small eyes glowed slightly, and he looked exactly like an old fox. "Tsk, Patriarch Lei, of course he has the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Root. Sigh, I say, since the two of you don't want to stand out, how good would it be to be my disciples? My Jin Xingfeng is peaceful and quiet. I can go into seclusion for as long as I want. I also have a female disciple who is now going out to gain experience.

I won't treat her well. "Li Jinzhi raised his eyebrows. If that was the case, it didn't seem too bad. Just as he was hesitating, he heard the other party say," The two of you haven't become Dao companions yet, right?

When the two of you enter the Golden Elixir period, how about I host the Dual Cultivation Ceremony for the two of you? "

Li Jinzhi watched as Ye Cheng took a step forward and nodded quickly. His mouth opened and closed as he shouted, "Master!" But he didn't have time to stop him.

Elder Bai laughed and patted Ye Cheng's shoulder. He sighed and said, "Sigh, it's so hard to find a Dao companion whom you can be satisfied with these days."

Ye Cheng's expression was also full of emotions.

Li Jinzhi looked at the scene in front of him that looked like a benevolent master and filial disciple. He resisted the urge to turn around and leave. He asked, "Why is Elder Bai so insistent on taking the two of us as disciples?" One who was unaccountably solicitous was hiding evil intentions. He didn't believe that Elder Bai would rope them in for no reason.

When Elder Bai heard this, his eyebrows suddenly rose high. He gritted his teeth and said, "The last time we selected disciples was two hundred years ago. There was also a Heavenly Spirit Root, but it was snatched by Old Man Li. In the next few decades, every time his disciple advanced, he would come to me to show off. My poor Jin Xingfeng was ridiculed to the point of being unable to fight back.

This time, hmph! "Elder Bai's face looked like he had gotten his revenge.

It turned out that the reason was so simple. It was just a way for the elders to show off to each other. They had lived for too long and had too much free time, so they wanted to compete to see whose disciple was more outstanding, whose cultivation method was better.

Since they were at a disadvantage, they wanted to make a comeback. There didn't seem to be anything wrong with that.

Li Jinzhi went through the sequence of events, the pros and cons in his mind. When he found that there was nothing wrong, he nodded. "Then we'll have to trouble Master in the future."

When Elder Bai heard this, he smiled proudly. "Take out your Purple Bamboo Jade."

The two of them did as they were told. Bai Jinxing waved his sleeve, and a layer of faint golden light appeared on the originally glossy jade. The golden light slowly gathered and condensed into the three small characters of Jin Xingfeng under the surface of the jade.

"Alright, from now on, the two of you are Jin Xingfeng's disciples. Oh, you're the second disciple, and you're the third disciple."

The second disciple pointed at Ye Cheng, and the third disciple was Li Jinzhi. "This Purple Bamboo Jade is the sect's token, so it should be kept properly. After I inject my transcendence energy into this jade, your information will be registered in the sect's identity registration office. You will be directly registered under my sect. If you need any resources, just go and get them."

Li Jinzhi raised his eyebrows and argued, "He should be my Junior Brother."

"He called me Master first just now, so he should be the second disciple."

Elder Bai refused without any explanation and then urged, "Let's go, I'll take you to Jin Xingfeng." Then, he turned into a beam of light and flew towards the north.

Ye Cheng pulled Li Jinzhi, whose face was full of reluctance, and turned into a beam of light and followed closely behind.

Li Jinzhi first became the Junior Brother, but then he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He kept feeling that he had forgotten something, as if he wanted to refute Elder Bai. What was it?

After thinking hard for a long time in the beam of light, he still couldn't remember and could only give up.
