3542: C3542 Rejected

C3542 Rejected

"Disciple Ning Qi greets Elder Yao."

Ning Qi saw a middle-aged man with a gloomy expression walking into the hall with Dongfang Qingyang and maidservant. He immediately stood up from his seat and respectfully saluted.

"Take a seat."

Yao Mu's face revealed a trace of a smile, but that smile was unable to wipe away the gloominess on his face.

After Ning Qi sat down, Yao Mu looked at Ning Qi for a while, then said, "I heard that your Immemorial Astral Body has already been tempered to the Seventh Rank?"

"That's right."

Ning Qi nodded his head.

"Seventh Rank Ancient Star Body... This has already reached the most basic requirement of being a true disciple, and you were only an inner circle disciple at that time. You're not even a core disciple. It seems like you were indeed underestimated when you entered the sect. A good talent has been buried."

Yao Mu smiled with a sigh.

"Elder Yao, you flatter me."

Ning Qi said with a smile.

"Don't be modest. I have been in Ancient Stellar Pavilion for many years. I have been in the sect for more than 500 years like you. I have only seen a few people who have formed the Primeval Astral Body. Back in Chiang Tianshu's era, there were many talented people, but their talent was at most on par with yours. However, luck is not as good as yours. "

Yao Mu looked at Ning Qi with a smile that was not a smile.

"What does Elder Yao mean by this? This disciple does not understand."

Ning Qi said with a smile.

"Don't you understand? Five hundred years ago, he had a Seventh Rank Ancient Star Body. If it wasn't for the fact that he had obtained a certain fortune... This is simply impossible, but you don't have to worry about it. I won't ask about your luck. Today, I called you here. I just want to ask you if you're interested in joining my sect."

Yao Mu looked at Ning Qi and smiled grimly.

Ning Qi wasn't surprised, but he didn't nod his head in agreement. Instead, he smiled and declined. "Disciple is used to being free and unfettered..."

"How dare you!"

A trace of anger emerged in Dongfang Qingyang's eyes.

Yao Mu had personally requested to take in a disciple, yet the other party dared to reject him?

If it was Ning Qi who was still in the Dao Seeking realm, with the Fifth Step Cultivator asking him to accept a disciple, Ning Qi would naturally agree to it. Even if he had any thoughts, he would put them at the back of his mind.

But now, his combat strength was not any weaker than an ordinary Early Period of Reincarnation Stage. The distance between him and the fifth step was not as far as he had imagined. If he were to acknowledge Yao Mu as his master and establish a connection with the Primeval Ancient Star... It wouldn't be worth it to be discovered by him. Ning Qi didn't think that Yao Mu was the same as Pavilion Elder Duan. He wanted to help him hide this matter!

"Qing Yang, don't scare this junior."

Yao Mu cast a glance at Dongfang Qing Yang. Upon seeing this, Dongfang Qing Yang hurriedly lowered his head. However, the corner of his eye that he was looking at Ning Qi still revealed a trace of coldness.

Yao Mu smiled and looked at Ning Qi, "Has someone already said that they want to take you as their disciple?"

"No."

Ning Qi smiled.

"Since you don't want to, then let's drop this matter. You can leave now."

Yao Mu smiled and waved his hand.

"Then disciple will take his leave first."

Ning Qi stood up and bowed, then turned around and left.

After a while.

Dongfang Qingyang mustered his courage and said in a low voice, "Elder Yao, this child is so insensible. Are you going to let him go just like that?"

"Do you think he's just an inner sect disciple who can be kneaded as he pleases? Do you know why inner sect, outer sect, and service disciples are called ordinary disciples? "

Yao Mu said with a cold smile.

Dongfang Qingyang probed: "Because their cultivation levels are low?"

"Because those below the Inner Sanctum are known as ordinary disciples and are not worthy of Qi Tianran's attention. That old man is in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall, although he is in charge of official business. The Deacon Chief elders are in charge of the matters of the inner sect, but the situation of every core disciple... It was impossible for Qi Tianran not to know that this kid had killed Bai Shaoqiu. Since he didn't make a move and didn't make a sound, it meant that this old man was secretly observing this kid. If something happens to this kid here, wouldn't that give Qi Tianran an excuse to attack us?"

Yao Mu snorted coldly.

"Elder Yao, you have a long-term vision. I'm too shallow."

Dongfang Qingyang said with a look of admiration.

"However, you still have to keep an eye on this kid for me."

Yao Mu smiled.

Dongfang Qingyang immediately nodded his head when he heard this. He understood that given Yao Mu's character, he would find a chance to teach a lesson to a mere Heavenly Fate Stage cultivator when he was rejected.

...

After leaving Yao Mu's place, Ning Qi returned to the core courtyard and prepared to enter secluded cultivation for a period of time. He would wait for the system to complete its advancement before considering his next move.

At the same time, a wounded inner sect disciple returned to the Ancient Stellar Pavilion. He dragged his severely injured body and sped all the way to the ninety-third outer sect courtyard.

"Senior brother Ning is here!"

After the inner circle disciple landed on the ground, he let out a loud scream.

"Senior brother, are you looking for Ning Qi and senior brother Ning?"

The outer circle disciple of the ninety-third courtyard saw that the disciple's face was covered in blood, and he didn't even have the time to wipe it off. There were still a few wounds on his body that were bleeding continuously. There seemed to be a special force that prevented his body from healing itself.

"That's right! Where is senior brother Ning? I'm the inner court disciple of Megrez Palace, Fong Yin. I have an urgent matter to discuss with him!"

Fong Yin said with a pale face.

"Senior brother Ning has already been promoted to an inner circle disciple. If senior disciple Feng went to the inner circle, he should be able to find him."

An outer circle disciple from the 93rd courtyard said.

The news of Ning Qi advancing to the core hadn't spread to the Outer Sect Academy yet. Therefore, they only knew that Ning Qi was now an inner circle disciple, but they didn't know that he had already advanced to the core.

When Fong Yin heard this, he didn't waste any time and flew straight to the inner circle. When he arrived at the inner circle and asked a few inner circle disciples about Ning Qi's whereabouts, Zhang Jingtao, Filo, and Xiong Lie heard the news and came over.

"Is there something that senior brother is looking for senior brother Ning for?"

The three of them sized up Fong Yin and asked.

"Do you know which mountain range senior brother Ning's cave is located in?"

Fong Yin asked anxiously.0

"Yes, I do, but you have to tell us why you are looking for senior brother Ning. Not everyone can see a great figure like him."

Filo's eyes moved and he said with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"I was heading to Taicang Mountain Range with junior disciple Mo Xie for a mission, but I was surrounded and attacked. Now junior disciple Mo Xie is surrounded and trapped in the Taicang Mountain Range. As for me... It was because of his help that I was able to escape. Junior disciple Mo Xie asked me to invite senior brother Ning to help him. Therefore, senior brothers, please lead the way as soon as possible! "

Fong Yin hesitated for a moment before speaking the truth. Mo Xie had told him the truth. He should not speak the truth in Jade Light Star Palace, lest some people who did not get along with him secretly cause trouble. But in this situation, if he didn't tell the truth, these three people obviously wouldn't bring him to see Ning Qi. Every minute that passed... Mo Xie would be in danger!

"Oh, so that's what happened."

The three of them looked at each other, then Xiong Lie smiled and said, "How about this, your injuries are quite serious. Go to my side and treat your injuries. I will help you inform senior brother Ning."

"Is that okay? Then I'll have to thank the three of you!"

Fong Yin heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
