Fan Xiao naturally had no idea what Ancestor You Chen was thinking. Xiao Zhen wouldn't bother him with such trivial matters by collecting information.
If he knew, he would probably say to him, speechless, "You think Nana doesn't know?"
Given Tina's little hobby of spying on her students, she must have been fully aware of what had happened to Yu Xuezhao.
Yu Xuezhao thought that as long as she didn't ask her teacher for help, she wouldn't be ridiculed by her teacher for her "annulment of the engagement" story. In reality... Tina was watching her play the whole time.
The arrogant apprentice gets his comeuppance for refusing to ask his teacher for help... it's quite entertaining to watch.
Of course, watching the show is one thing, but if Yu Xuezhao were really in danger, Tina would probably send a clone of herself to her right then and there.
As for the so-called calamity of the extermination of the sect... that's just blatant slander!
Although Nana isn't exactly a respectable person, she still has basic morals.
“Mr. Fan, these are the two most talented inner disciples among the younger generation of our sect.”
Ancestor Youchen delivered the two beautiful young girls to Fan Xiao's villa-style cave dwelling.
She has a very sweet appearance, with crescent-shaped eyes that seem to be smiling, and she looks very lively.
She was dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, carrying a long sword on her back. Her expression was slightly cold. Although she was young, she already gave off the reliable air of a heroic female knight-errant, and she was also a beauty in the making.
Ancestor Youchen glanced at the sweet-looking girl, then said to Fan Xiao, "Her name is Fang Jialuo."
He then glanced at the young female warrior: "Her name is Fang Naining."
After introducing the two women, he began to provide more details: "Mr. Fan, these two disciples are sisters, and they are among the best of this year's inner disciples. In the annual inner sect competition not long ago, they won second and third place respectively..."
Are you trying to introduce me to an apprentice?
Fan Xiao asked in a slightly strange tone.
He thought that Patriarch Youchen was playing the game of giving him a Daoist partner...
I never expected him to be my apprentice.
I wouldn't say I was disappointed; he wasn't the kind of person who was impatient with lust.
It just feels like the routine isn't quite right.
On the other side, Elder Youchen, upon hearing Fan Xiao's words, mistakenly assumed that Fan Xiao was somewhat dissatisfied with the second and third place results. He immediately explained, "Mr. Fan, the first place winner of the previous Inner Sect Competition was a male disciple who suppressed his cultivation level and prepared many methods in the combat field. In order to win the first place reward, he suppressed his cultivation level and did not advance to the Nascent Soul stage. He has been suppressing it for three years and has won the first place in the Inner Sect Competition three times..."
"You guys can keep getting the top spot in the inner sect?" Fan Xiao asked curiously.
"No more than three times."
Ancestor Youchen replied, "This is his third time. He has already condensed his Nascent Soul and advanced to the True Disciple level. He is not young anymore."
"As for Jialuo and Naining, their aptitude for immortality is too good. They reached the late stage of Core Formation at the age of fifteen. In terms of immortality aptitude alone, they can even rival Elder Yu. It was a fortunate coincidence that my sect leader Ji Xingjian was able to recruit them into my Heavenly Sword Sect."
"With their talent, they would usually be directly accepted as disciples by the Tribulation Transcending cultivators in the sect. However... the Tribulation Transcending cultivators in our sect are all in seclusion and cannot be disturbed unless it is a major event. So, for the time being, Xingjian is taking care of them."
"Now that they are close to forming their Nascent Souls, the matter of them becoming disciples can no longer be delayed, so..."
"So you came to me?" Fan Xiao said speechlessly, "Do I look like I have a lot of free time?"
Although he is indeed very free.
But he didn't want to waste his energy teaching apprentices.
His cultivation level increased out of thin air, so what can he teach? How can he teach people to cheat?
"Mr. Fan, given your relationship with Elder Yu, you are the most esteemed guest elder of our Heavenly Sword Sect... no, the most honored guest patriarch!"
Old Ancestor Youchen seized the opportunity to establish a connection.
Actually, according to his original intention, he planned to send Fan Xiao a few Daoist partners... Although the Heavenly Sword Sect does not do this, he can't stop young and beautiful female disciples and elders from falling in love with strong people, right?
However, he did not make a hasty decision on this matter, but discussed it privately with the other three elders.
Finally, the only female ancestor among the four, Ancestor Mingyue, offered advice: with Elder Yu present, it's best not to introduce her junior brother to any romantic relationships. Who knows, Elder Yu and her junior brother might actually be a perfect couple. Elder Yu is already a super player, on par with them, and has incredible future potential… Introducing her junior brother to any relationship without proper guidance could easily backfire; wouldn't that be pure suicide?
But we can't do nothing; we still need to win them over.
So... as a compromise, I'll introduce a female apprentice.
Who wouldn't love a sweet, adorable, well-behaved, sensible, and filial female apprentice?
Even if filial piety changes, that's a matter for the future.
Patriarch Youchen immediately decided to adopt this suggestion.
For no other reason than... When the Old Ancestor Mingyue entered the mortal world in his early years to experience the mortal realm, he disguised himself and joined the Hehuan Sect, and thus had extremely rich experience with men and women.
Listen to the Old Ancestor Mingyue, you can't go wrong!
Then, Elder Youchen continued, "Mr. Fan, as a guest elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the most outstanding disciples in the sect should naturally be selected by you, who have not yet accepted any disciples."
"You're mistaken. I do have apprentices."
"He's just a bit rebellious," Fan Xiao added to himself.
Seeing that Fan Xiao didn't seem very interested, Elder Youchen immediately changed his tune: "Mr. Fan, given your relationship with Elder Yu, even if you don't plan to stay in Node C for a long time, you'll probably spend quite a bit of time here."
"In that case, you will need a place to stay here. Our Heavenly Sword Sect is happy to provide you with such a place. Your Immortal Peak is already under construction, personally overseen by our four patriarchs, and will be completed within the next few days."
"However, this vast immortal peak seems rather desolate if you, Mr. Fan, are the only one here. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Xiao gave Xiao Zhen a look.
Xiao Zhen immediately understood and began to reprimand Ancestor You Chen: "Hmph... Little You, you're not being honest. You're still playing such low tricks in front of your master. What, does your master have to be tied to your Heavenly Sword Sect?"
“Senior Zhen, I had no such intention at all.” Ancestor Youchen quickly replied, “I only wanted to provide Mr. Fan with a temporary place to stay, to repay Mr. Fan for adding a super player to our sect. I hope Senior Zhen will understand.”
I bet you wouldn't dare!
Xiao Zhen gave a soft rebuke and continued to nag, "The master's will is not something a small sect like yours can influence. Don't harbor any improper thoughts, otherwise..."
"Senior, I know, I know."
Ancestor Youchen stated frankly, "I do have the intention of winning over Mr. Fan, but I do not need Mr. Fan to do anything for the Heavenly Sword Sect. Mr. Fan can simply use this place as a place to stay."
He wasn't lying about that.
What happened today can no longer be kept secret.
Many disciples within the sect have powerful family backgrounds outside the sect, and they have probably already sent the news back home, allowing the intelligence to spread.
In addition, Yu Xuezhao will follow tradition and hold her own super player celebration banquet... The Heavenly Sword Sect will be very, very lively afterwards.
He didn't need Fan Xiao to do anything for the Heavenly Sword Sect, nor did he have the guts.
The mere fact that "Fan Xiao used the Heavenly Sword Sect as a base" naturally spread and brought immeasurable benefits to the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Now, the top forces at node C, following the orders of the immortals of the celestial realm, are leading the charge to declare independence. Game companies and other forces have dispatched powerful figures to intervene, and a silent war broke out more than half a month ago, with the opening of the celestial realm's secret realm... In such turbulent times, the Heavenly Sword Sect, seemingly prosperous, is actually walking a tightrope.
He needs to win over powerful allies like Fan Xiao for the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Fan Xiao is already so strong that he can protect the Heavenly Sword Sect from the raging storm simply by relying on his reputation, so he doesn't need to put in any other tricks... People should know how to be content.
"Hmph... All information related to the master will be automatically updated to me by the world. If I find out that you are using the master's name to bully others and commit evil deeds... Little You, you should know the consequences, right?"
The knowledgeable loli gave a final warning to the old ancestor Youchen.
"I know, I know," Elder Youchen said with a fawning smile. "Mr. Fan and Senior Zhen, please rest assured, our Heavenly Sword Sect is a reputable and righteous sect, and we would never do such a thing. As for any unforeseen circumstances... I will keep an eye on things, and anyone who dares to bully others will be killed!"
At this point, he looked at Fan Xiao again and asked, "Mr. Fan, what do you... think of these two disciples?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Xiao observed Jia Luo and Nai Ning for a few moments, feeling rather... curious.
In a fantasy world, being an ancestor who takes on disciples... to be honest, it's quite a novel experience.
He originally intended to refuse.
However, Ancestor Youchen said something that served as a reminder to him—he would most likely come to Node C to play often in the future, because the world here was indeed quite interesting, and the plot of the Xianxia world he imagined was almost all here.
He really wanted to experience all these things as a cultivator, such as alchemy and array formation, immortal battles, recruiting disciples, leaving behind the legacy of his cave dwelling, and so on... Well, one can't just think about becoming stronger; one must balance work and rest, and having fun is also important.
With this in mind, his desire to refuse diminished.
Xiao Zhen noticed this.
Xiao Zhen immediately reminded Fan Xiao, "Master, these two female disciples are not from aristocratic families. Their parents were two high-level cultivators who perished in a conflict between righteous and demonic forces thirteen years ago. They have no other relatives left, their backgrounds are very simple, and their ties to the secular world are minimal, so minimal that they can be ignored. Their character is also very upright, so there is no problem."
"A descendant of a hero... In that case, you shall look after my Immortal Peak Cave from now on."
Fan Xiao nodded.
He was very satisfied with the clean background and the negligible entanglements with worldly affairs.
If someone has a bunch of distant relatives who keep trying to curry favor with them, or if they're a troublemaker, or if their personality has gone astray, then they can be passed over immediately.
Taking on apprentices is for personal enjoyment; if it brings a lot of trouble, it's pointless... Yes, he's the type who likes to be unconventional and abstract like a husky, but would never raise one himself.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up... cough, Jialuo, Naining, come here quickly and perform the apprenticeship ceremony."
When Patriarch Youchen saw that Jialuo and Naining were somewhat stunned, he was about to scold them on the spot... but halfway through, he suddenly realized that the two of them were now Mr. Fan's disciples, so he quickly stopped talking and changed his tone.
Very risky.
"Meet the Master!"
Jialuo and Naining knelt down at the same time and kowtowed three times.
Because of her nervousness and overly formal movements, the contrast actually made her seem quite adorable.
"Ah."
Fan Xiao nodded slightly and began to put on airs: "Now that you've entered my tutelage, you must have the right mindset, strive to cultivate yourself, be kind to others, and do good deeds. Do you understand?"
"I understand, Master."
The two nodded in unison.
Fan Xiao was very satisfied; it gave him the feeling of being a high-level cultivator in a fantasy world.
Although the rebellious Melissa is quite amusing, having two obedient, sensible, and filial apprentices is also a wonderful thing... Once his Fairy Peak is built, he will have a place to live at Node C, and these two apprentices can help him guard the gate.
Fan Xiao activated "Quantum Immortality" to transform luck, creating two sword techniques that were more suitable for the two of them on the spot.
A set called "The Secret Record of the Imperial Sword" has the signature function of bestowing a divine title upon a sword, granting it intelligence and different slashing abilities. It focuses on a nurturing training method and is more suitable for the lively Jia Luo.
A set of skills called "Azure Lotus Sword Manual" can be cultivated to refine the merits accumulated from chivalrous deeds into Azure Lotus Sword Intent. Its power is similar to a low-end version of "Immortal Slaying Sword Intent". It can penetrate time and space and can cut through most concepts.
These two sets of techniques are far inferior to the "Taoist scriptures," so they did not consume much of his mental energy.
Of course, placing it at node C is also considered a celestial-grade cultivation technique that directly targets the Golden Immortal realm.
Creating cultivation techniques is not difficult. The rules of the immortal path are there; what needs to be created is simply a method to communicate with and utilize the corresponding immortal path rules.
Fan Xiao used his divine sense to envelop the information of the two cultivation techniques and transmitted it to the foreheads of his two disciples, instructing them, "This is a gift from your master to you. Remember, these techniques should not be passed on lightly. Alright, go down now, and remember to clean up my immortal peak."
"Yes! Master!"
After Jialuo and Naining sensed the contents of the cultivation technique in their minds, they almost fainted from happiness.
However, their respect for Fan Xiao allowed them to force themselves to maintain their composure.
"By the way, which of you two is the older sister? Which one is the younger sister?" Fan Xiao suddenly asked.
“Reporting to Master, I am the elder sister,” the lively and adorable Fang Jialuo replied.
“Master, I am your younger sister.” The calm and collected Fang Naining followed closely behind.
"..."
Fan Xiao glanced at Old Ancestor You Chen, somewhat suspecting that the old man's motives were impure.
Why is the contrast so strong...? This old man disappeared for most of the day, could it be just to find him these two sisters?
……
Perhaps it was because he was too excited after achieving his goal, but after leaving Fan Xiao's cave, Ancestor Youchen worked overtime, cooperating with the other three ancestors, to build the Immortal Peak for Fan Xiao.
The Xianfeng Mountain, which originally required three days to build, was completed in just one day.
The supporting facilities, such as buildings, formations, and spiritual energy, are naturally fully equipped.
Even Fan Xiao, after just one glance, felt it was an extravagant amount of money.
How big is his home on Earth?
This celestial peak is located right next to the main peak of the Law Enforcement Peak... Why was this location chosen? Those who know, know.
Immediately after the completion of Xianfeng, Yu Xue Zhao took a break from her busy schedule to come over, named it "Yu Xiao Feng," and then rushed back to prepare for the celebratory banquet.
The tedious details were naturally taken care of by others; all she needed to do was give her choices in all the arrangements and decide which forces, families, and individuals to send the invitations to.
