"Hmph …"

Yin Xian would not be angry, but he would also not let Tian Ci continue to mess things up. After all, he was the Acting Sect Master, and represented the entire sect. If Tian Ci continued to mess around with him, it would affect Yin Xian's reputation with the sect.

"Does this kid really not understand the rules of the cultivation world?"

"This kid said that he wanted to enter the Hollow Jade Sect, but he still had to offend Yin Xian. What the hell is he doing?"

"This little guy looks very smart. How did he get into such a mess!"

"… …"

"Hahaha, that kid from the mountains is really bad, offending an old fool like Yin Xian and not being able to enter the Hollow Jade Sect, that's great!"

"Haha, this kid really doesn't know his place. Once he is kicked out of the Hollow Jade Sect, I will have a chance!"

Ha ha, now that you've offended this Yin Xian, you won't be far from the Hollow Jade Sect. It doesn't matter if you're Shentu Shun or not.

"Haha, old fool Yin Xian, it's good that you're angry. Hurry up and chase this child out of the sect. Do you need my help?"

"… …"

Yin Xian's face darkened. Everyone thought that he was angry. Those people that admired the gift didn't understand what it did and were a bit worried about it.

As for those who were paranoid and believed that it was Shentu Shun, they were very happy. They were waiting for Yin Xian to kick him out of the sect.

"What is the little guy trying to do?"

"This doesn't make sense. No matter what, we can't let him continue to mess around like this. Otherwise, this Senior Brother really won't be happy!" Su Liang was also slightly puzzled when he saw that Tian Ci was purposely doing this for Senior Brother.

His innate talent was indeed very poor, but his physique was also very good. Not only did he pass this disciple recruitment ceremony, it also proved that his mind was not ordinary. This was only him.

Beside him was Chi Dan, who was half a foot into the Demonic Lord realm. There was also a guard who could protect him for ten years. He had quite a good relationship with Huo Luan, and there was even an old man behind him whose cultivation was unknown.

A person like Tian Ci was indeed just as Duo Ling said. If the Cracking Sky Sect didn't come out and take the initiative to invite them, the other sects would also invite them. Su Liang knew about the other sects, including the Hollow Jade Sect.

He understood that his Senior Brother was no longer suitable to come forward and recruit his Junior Brother. Junior Sister Wenshu never cared about these things, and Junior Brother Zhang's thoughts were all on Junior Sister Wenshu. Thus, this task of recruiting his Senior Brother had to be done by him.

"Alright, Tian Ci, stop messing around. Hurry up and apologize to Senior Apprentice Brother!"

"Junior brother, I thought you were going to keep on laughing at me!" When Yin Xian saw that Su Liang had finally stepped in to resolve the issue, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Eh? What's Uncle Su doing? Could it be?"

"No, absolutely not! I still have to go down the mountain and look for senior!"

Uncle Su suddenly got him to apologize to Yin Xian. He was a bit confused and quickly guessed at something. He frowned and quickly calmed down, but he did not immediately apologize.

"What's with that expression? Apologize to me. Why is it so difficult? Or is it that I've always refused to accept him as a disciple? Does he really not want to join the sect?" Seeing that Tian Ci wasn't willing to apologize to him, Yin Xian couldn't ask for the reason in front of everyone. He couldn't compromise, so he started to worry again.

Seeing that Tian Ci was unwilling to apologize, Yin Xian's expression became even more gloomy. Those who admired him were even more confused, and those who harbored ill intentions were even more expectant.

"Yi, could it be that this little fellow really doesn't want to join a sect, or is it that he doesn't want to apologize to Senior Brother?" Seeing the unwilling expression on Tian Ci's face, Su Xin guessed that since Tian Ci was unwilling to apologize, he could only let go of the matter of apologizing and take her into the sect.

"Senior Brother, actually, Junior Brother had already accepted the Heavenly Gift into the sect a month ago!"

"Junior brother, you should have done this a long time ago!" Hearing Su Liang's words, not only did Yin Xian not object, he even agreed.

"What? Is that true?"

"How can the Hollow Jade Sect be like this?"

"Could this be the explanation given to us by the Hollow Jade Sect?"

Those who were surprised were basically all people who did not care about their status, and those who were angry were still people who did not want to let go of their status. Not everyone was the same, there were still some people who had seen through it.

"Haha, interesting, really interesting!"

"If Su Liang really did take you in as his disciple, why did you have to painstakingly enter the sect just now!"

"If little friend Tian Ci had already joined the Hollow Jade Sect, why did he have to offend Yin Xian? Does he not know the consequences of offending Yin Xian? Is he that smart to do such a foolish thing?"

"This Hollow Jade Sect has refused to accept this kid into their sect for such a long time, this kid is obviously angry. There's a high chance that he doesn't intend to join the Hollow Jade Sect anymore!"

Before proving his identity, this kid has repeatedly requested to join the Hollow Jade Sect to obtain its protection. The Hollow Jade Sect has been unwilling for a long time, but now that this kid's identity has been clearly investigated, it's obvious that they have other intentions. And the Hollow Jade Sect wants to accept this kid into their sect, so I'm very much looking forward to seeing what this kid will choose!

Because the bestowal of heaven had already proven their identity, it did not have anything to do with Shentu Shun. Thus, many people had already changed their attitude and were waiting to see the Hollow Jade Sect as a joke.

There were always some paranoid people who believed that the gift was Shentu Shun. Even if the gift had already proven their identity, they were still able to see through it. However, they did not wish for the Hollow Jade Sect to accept the gift, so they did not come out to stop it.

"Sigh, Uncle Su, Senior Yin Xian has always been unwilling to accept me into the sect. What's the point of you doing this, you probably don't know that you're forcing me!"

Shen Ci had already guessed Su Liang's intentions and refused to apologize to Yin Xian. She wanted Su Liang to give up on his intentions, but his wish failed.

If Su Liang didn't accept him into the sect, then he would have an excuse to go down the mountain and look for his senior brother. At that time, even if his senior brother would blame him, the Hollow Jade Sect wouldn't force him as a disciple.

But now, Su Liang wanted to recruit him into the sect. If he refused, then perhaps his senior brother would hide and not see him.

"Uncle Su, since you want to force me to enter the sect, then don't blame me!" He looked at Yin Xian, who had a gloomy expression, and then looked at Su Liang, who had a face full of anticipation.

"Master, you promised me that you wouldn't tell Martial Uncle about this without Martial Uncle's permission! I haven't even gotten a gift yet, so why did you say it, Master! "

That's right, since Su Liang wanted to force Tian Ci into the sect, then the first thing Tian Ci would do would be to find an extraordinary master for herself in the sect.

If it was two months ago, Tian Ci wouldn't have cared about finding his Master. After all, it was not his original intention for his senior to have arranged for him to join the Hollow Jade Sect.

However, when Little Dan sold him off for spirit stones, she gave him Shentu Shun's identity, allowing him to see the cruelty of the cultivation world and feel a sense of crisis.

He was cautious and prepared to fight with others. He did not do it out of his own free will, but because he was forced out by the crowd. This was because the crowd wanted Shentu Shentu so much that they did not have any good intentions towards him.

In the process of proving his identity, he had carefully observed everyone. The majority of people who had ill intentions towards him were not the only ones who came to watch the ceremony, they were the internal members of the Hollow Jade Sect.

When he had just asked to join the Hollow Jade Sect, he had been quietly observing Yin Xian, Su Liang, and Wen Shu. During the hour when he was crying, he observed the sect elders that had appeared on the stage once more.

Yin Xian was still hesitating and refused to accept him into the sect. As the substitute sect head, it was reasonable that he had to weigh the pros and cons. However, he still couldn't figure out if he also had the same goal as everyone else.

In the main hall of the sect, Su Liang reminded him not to admit Shentu Shun's identity; he also had to protect him when he left the main hall; he saw the praise in Su Liang's eyes when he wanted to enter the sect; and when he cried, he only saw anxiety in Su Liang's eyes, which showed that Su Liang truly cared for him.

When he begged to be accepted into the sect, Wen Shu had laughed twice; when he cried, she would look up at the sky, but from time to time, she was only curious.

As for the others, Elder Zhang didn't care about them at all. From the beginning till the end, he only cared about Wen Shu. He didn't care about his identity at all.

Most of the people standing behind the seven chairs looked at him with longing. Some of them had complicated looks in their eyes, but some of them seemed to be thinking about something.

Although today it was proven that he was not Shentu Shun, this was the first time he felt the cruelty of the cultivation world, so he did not dare to lower his guard. Because, he always felt that even if he had already been proven that he was not Shentu Shun, there would still be people who would stubbornly believe that he was Shentu Shun.

If choosing a master was a consideration for his own safety, then his master must have a very high cultivation level and very high status within the sect, so much so that they couldn't even covet him.

The second generation elders' cultivation and status were not as good as Yin Xian, Su Liang, and Wen Shu, nor as good as Elder Zhang. There were even many who held malicious intentions towards him.

After his observation, Yin Xian didn't have any ill intentions towards him, but he was still unable to guess Yin Xian's thoughts. He only wanted to be a simple and happy person, and really didn't like this kind of life where one could guess and guess and cheat. Even if Yin Xian was the Acting Sect Master, he still let Yin Xian become his Master.
