Chapter 5: Taking Xiao Yan as a Disciple, Xiao Xun Er Insists on Following?
"I am Yan Xiao from Wutan City."
"May I ask who Your Excellency is?"
Xiao Yan asked with a mix of doubt and panic.
"I am the Hall Master of Ye Emperor Hall."
"I see that your skeletal structure is extraordinary and you have exceptional talent. Are you interested in joining my Ye Emperor Hall?"
Looking at the "Yan Xiao" before him, Ye Changge said with a hint of amusement.
"Ye Emperor Hall?"
"Inviting me to join?"
"Your Excellency, are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan still asked cautiously.
What he didn't understand was that his Aptitude of 3rd stage Dou Zhi Qi had just been the center of attention. Was this person out of their mind to invite him to join their Sect?
Moreover, Ye Emperor Hall?
Does the Jia Ma Empire have such a Sect or power?
"What, are you questioning me?"
Looking at the hesitating Xiao Yan, Ye Changge couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and speak.
At the same time, an aura of Peak Dou Zong instantly enveloped Xiao Yan!
"No, I wouldn't dare..."
"Since the Hall Master thinks highly of me, this junior is willing to join Ye Emperor Hall."
Enveloped by this aura that could make him vanish in an instant, Xiao Yan felt his soul tremble with fear and hurriedly spoke.
"Very well."
"Xiao Yan, you will feel fortunate for the decision you made today in the future."
"Teacher, how did you know..."
Hearing Ye Changge call out his real name, Xiao Yan had a look of shock on his face!
"Peak Dou Zong!"
"The Jia Ma Empire doesn't have an expert like Your Excellency. Who exactly are you!"
"What is your purpose in approaching Brother Xiao Yan!"
"Interesting. Little girl, I have no ill will toward Xiao Yan!"
"I am simply eager to take a Disciple!"
Ye Changge ignored Xiao Xun Er's wary gaze and instead stared with great interest at the Bone Chilling Flame Ring in Xiao Yan's hand!
"In that case, wherever Brother Xiao Yan goes, I go!"
"I'm going to your Ye Emperor Hall too!"
"What!"
"Teacher is actually a Dou Zong!"
Xiao Yan exclaimed!
...[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully recruiting the Son of the Plane. Mission accomplished.]
[Mission rewards are being distributed... Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Silver Summoning Card.]
[Silver Summoning Card: Can summon experts from the Dou Zong Realm to the Dou Sheng Realm.]
With the sound of the rewards arriving, Ye Changge also opened Xiao Yan's panel.
[Xiao Yan: 3rd stage Dou Zhi Qi, descendant of the ancient Xiao Clan, Parasitic Body: Yao Chen.]
"Heh, Venerable Yao, Yao Chen?"
"Interesting. Why don't I take him in too, specifically to refine Medicinal Pills for my Sect."
"Let's go, back to the Sect."
"Teacher, please give me a few days so I can return to the Family and tell my father..."
Just as Xiao Yan was about to speak, several people approached and interrupted him.
"Yo? Isn't this the Third Young Master of the Xiao Family?"
"What, our great Genius Xiao has come to the Cloud Mist Sect to join the fun?"
"With just your 3rd stage Dou Zhi Qi?"
"Xiao Yan, you're not worthy!"
"Jia Lie Ao!!"
Seeing the newcomer, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth in anger.
This guy really is like a lingering ghost!
"Haha, it's exactly this young master!"
"This young master has come to visit you, you Trash."
Jia Lie Ao was Xiao Yan's arch-rival. Their families were both major powers in Wutan City and had been engaged in constant open and secret struggles.
One day, when Xiao Yan was out with Xun'er, Jia Lie Ao was attracted by Xun'er's beauty.
Therefore, he often humiliated Xiao Yan, wanting to make him look foolish.
"Yo, are these three next to you the friends of the Xiao Family's Third Young Master?"
Jia Lie Ao's cultivation was relatively low, so he couldn't see the cultivation levels of Ye Changge's group and thought they were ordinary people.
"Truly, birds of a feather flock together."
"As expected, those who hang out with the Xiao Family's Third Young Master are all Trash."
Jia Lie Ao spoke with an arrogant and overbearing expression.
"Jia Lie Ao, shut your mouth!"
Seeing Jia Lie Ao insult his teacher, Xiao Yan hurriedly stepped forward.
"Young master, I just heard them mention they seem to be from the Ye Emperor Hall."
"Could it be that this useless Third Young Master has joined the Ye Emperor Hall?"
"Ye Emperor Hall? Which Sect is that?"
While Jia Lie Ao was still wondering why any Sect would want a piece of Trash like Xiao Yan...
"Haha, young master might not know, but the Ye Emperor Hall is an insignificant power. Its headquarters is in Blackrock City, and I heard its Disciples have all run away."
"Haha, so it's true! A trashy Sect taking in a piece of Trash is only natural!"
"Audacious!"
"Those who insult my Ye Emperor Hall shall be killed without mercy!!"
Outer Gate Steward Ye Cheng struck out with a palm, instantly turning the still-laughing Jia Lie Ao into a mist of blood.
And from beginning to end, Ye Changge watched these people like he was watching monkeys.
"Without the monkeys' howling, my ears are finally at peace."
After saying that, Ye Changge symbolically scratched his ear.
These clowns really are taking a rocket to the underworld, thinking they aren't dying fast enough.
Of all the people to provoke, they had to provoke him.
"Another Dou Zong!"
Xiao Xun Er exclaimed.
"What, another Dou Zong!"
Xiao Yan, at the side, didn't have time to wonder how Xun'er could see through their strength.
Ye Cheng, the Outer Gate Steward, was originally the most inconspicuous of the three, but the powerful Dou Qi fluctuations when he struck once again shocked Xiao Yan.
"Just who is Teacher..."
"You, you, you..."
Jia Lie Ao's lackeys still hadn't reacted.
They only felt a strong surge of cultivation power, their vision went dark as they were blown away, and then they saw their young master turned into blood mist, vanishing from the face of the earth.
"You killed the young master!"
"Just you wait, wait... and face the wrath of my Jiale Family!"
Jia Lie Ao's lackey was so scared he could barely speak, but he still mustered the courage to shout threats.
"There's no need for the Jiale Family to exist anymore."
"Let's go."
Ye Changge spoke those words casually and then turned to leave.
The commotion here also attracted many people.
Especially the upper echelons of the Cloud Mist Sect on the viewing platform!
"Wait a moment, it's a bit inappropriate for Your Excellency to leave just like this."
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am the Grand Elder of the Cloud Mist Sect, Yun Ling, and also the person in charge of this Disciple Recruitment Convention."
"Are you here to stand up for that kid?"
"No, Your Excellency has misunderstood. Such a small power isn't worth making the Cloud Mist Sect face the wrath of a Dou Zong."
"I simply wish to invite your noble Sect to participate in the upcoming Exchange Convention."
He was also somewhat puzzled as to why the Ye Emperor Hall, which had fallen to an insignificant power, still had an expert like a Dou Zong. Could it be that the descendants of the Ye Emperor Hall had obtained some Sect Legacy?
Seeing this, looking at the white-haired, youthful-faced old man before him, Ye Changge hesitated for a moment.
[Ding, as the future number one Sect in the world, how can you not have fame?]
[Issuing an open-ended mission: Become Famous Throughout the Northwest Continent. There is no time limit; rewards will be granted based on the degree of completion.]
"Become famous throughout the Northwest Continent? Fine, the first step of my Ye Emperor Hall's entry into the world will start with this Exchange Convention."
"I'm bored anyway, I'll play along with you."
"This way, Your Excellency!"
Afterward, the four of them were invited to wait in the central pavilion.
On the way, Ye Changge introduced Ye Cheng and Shi Hao to Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, this is your Senior Brother, Shi Hao."
"This is our Ye Emperor Hall's Outer Gate Steward, Ye Cheng."
"Greetings, Senior Brother, and Senior Ye Cheng."
What Xiao Yan didn't expect was that Senior Ye, who was so powerful in his eyes, was only an Outer Gate Steward in the Sect. And this Senior Brother didn't look simple either; his talent should be even stronger than Xun'er's... "I've really found a powerful backer this time. Let's see who dares to look down on me, Xiao Yan, now!"
