Chapter 68 The Cult Leader Has Arrived
Yiqin and Yiqing started helping to throw things away, and soon the room was a mess.
On Liu Ruxuan's side, Xi Yue also conceded defeat, and Shu Yuwei was not challenged, so the competition was declared over. It turned out that simply having an empty character meant one could avoid a fight, which was extremely fortunate. All the losers stood to one side, while all the winners stood on the Five Immortals Platform, a total of 32 people waiting to be selected.
"This competition has concluded. Please, the three elders, select your disciples." Song Fan bowed respectfully to Zhiyuan and the other two, and gestured for them to proceed.
Zhiyuan came down from the platform first, followed by Yunhan and Yin Hongxue. Zhiyuan looked at Yunhan and Yin Hongxue, intending to let them choose first.
"Senior brother, you go first," Yun Han said with a smile, very generously.
Zhiyuan nodded and began to choose. He looked at this one and then that one, thinking that everyone in this batch was quite good. He couldn't possibly choose them all; he had to pick a couple. Just as Zhiyuan was about to make his move, he felt a familiar, slight pressure spreading from the sky. He looked up and, sure enough, saw a familiar figure.
Dugu Juechen arrived on the wind, like an immortal, and slowly landed on the high platform not far away.
"Master!" The three elders, including Zhiyuan, paid their respects to Dugu Juechen first, and many disciples hurriedly followed suit, including those who had just succeeded and those who had not. They had never seen the Master's true face before, so since the elders had all paid their respects, it must be true.
"Get up, all of you." Dugu Juechen spoke slowly, his voice cold and sharp, like a thousand-year-old ice. Liu Ruxuan shivered involuntarily, raised her head, and looked in Dugu Juechen's direction.
It's him!
How could it be him? !
When Liu Ruxuan saw Dugu Juechen, her eyes widened and her mouth gaped open: "He...he...he...he...Gong Yunxuan!"
Dugu Juechen also saw Liu Ruxuan, a smile flashed across his lips, and then he turned his gaze to the many new disciples.
'The world is vast and full of wonders. I never imagined he would be the leader of the Heavenly Spirit Sect.' Liu Wenhao remained calm, but his heart was far from at peace.
"This time, I will take on a disciple." Dugu Juechen's voice was still cold.
The new disciples were all eager and excited, wondering if they were the sect leader's disciple.
Amidst everyone's suspicions, Dugu Juechen slowly extended his hand, which made everyone even more excited, but no one moved, hoping that they would be the lucky one.
With a slight movement of Dugu Juechen's hand, Liu Wenhao stood out from the crowd and, under the control of Dugu Juechen's spiritual power, flew to the high platform.
"You..." Liu Wenhao frowned, about to say something, but was interrupted by Dugu Juechen: "You are my disciple now, is there anything else you want to say?"
Liu Wenhao glanced at Liu Ruxuan below the stage, only to see her shake her head. Then Liu Wenhao turned to Dugu Juechen and said, "No."
"Kneel down," Dugu Juechen said coldly.
Liu Wenhao's purpose in coming was to become the sect leader's disciple. They had met once before, and given how wary Liu Wenhao had been then, it was fortunate that the sect leader didn't mind. After thinking for a while, Liu Wenhao knelt on the ground. Dugu Juechen began to instruct on the ritual, but Liu Ruxuan was far from calm!
She shook her head because she didn't want Liu Wenhao to become Dugu Juechen's disciple!
Unexpectedly, Gong Yunxuan was actually Dugu Juechen, the leader of the Tianling Sect. This meant Liu Ruxuan had suffered a crushing defeat in their previous bet. However, Liu Ruxuan still wanted her elder brother to become the sect leader's disciple, a position of immense power and prestige.
I'm so conflicted~
