407 Taking In A Disciple (2)
“It’s ridiculous!”
“What happened after that?” Jiang Beiran asked.
” Later, I used this Red Flame Stronghold as a base and arranged for my brothers to go to various counties to do basic investigations. Although many accidents happened during this period, we did not lose any men. On the contrary, we got to know many local elites.”
“So you guys have successfully rooted in the Country of Liang?”
“I can’t say that I succeeded, but I managed to establish some connections.”
‘Three months to lead the organization to gain a foothold in a completely unfamiliar country…This is probably the main character.
Jiang Beiran sighed in his heart and said calmly,””Very outstanding. I was not wrong about you.”
“Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. I will definitely continue to work hard.”
“Hmm, since you’re doing well in the Liang Country, let’s talk about tomorrow.”
After hearing this, Li Fucheng could not help but look a little confused. He still could not figure out what that Mystique Venerable wanted to do. He suddenly appeared and disappeared, and even made an inexplicable agreement in the meantime. He was simply confused.
“Who do you think that Mystique Venerable made the agreement for?”Jiang Beiran suddenly threw out a question.
“Naturally, I’m here for the emperor.” Li Fucheng answered without hesitation.
“No.” Jiang Beiran shook his head.” That Mystique Venerable must have come for you.””
“Me?” Li Fucheng was a little surprised.
In Lifu City’s heart, he was completely different from the Emperor. As the saying went, a firefly’s light could compete with the bright moon. Of course, only a dragon among men like the Emperor could attract the interest of a Mystique Venerable One. It would never be his turn.
“That’s right. It’s very likely that Sect Master Yan has taken a fancy to your Four Symbols Physique. I believe that he wants to take you as his disciple.”
“Xuan Zun…You want to take me as your disciple?” Li Fucheng’s eyes widened in shock.
One had to know that Mystique Venerable Rank was one of the top combat forces on this mainland and had the qualifications to fight for the Central Plains. Each of them was a figure who could make a country tremble with a stomp of their feet.
For such a big shot, the requirements for taking in disciples were naturally very high. Every one of them was a peerless genius that was one in ten thousand.
However, Li Fu City didn’t feel that he had the qualifications to do so.
Seemingly noticing Lifucheng’s confusion, Jiang Beiran continued,””The teacher who taught you is not only in cultivation. That Mystique Venerable naturally took a fancy to your Four Symbols Physique and naturally wanted to teach you the study of array formations.”
“Formation…” Li Fucheng nodded, then turned to Jiang Beiran and said,””If possible…I hope that the emperor will teach me.”
“Yes.” Li Fucheng cupped his hands.
After the conversation, Jiang Beiran asked Wang Shougui to arrange a place for him to stay in Lifu City before returning to his bedroom to rest.
Early the next morning, the six-tailed fox, who had been sleeping on its stomach, suddenly heard something and jumped up immediately. It ran happily to the edge of the array wall and looked into the distance with a face full of anticipation. The moment Jiang Beiran appeared, the six-tailed fox wagged its tail excitedly. However, when it realized that Lifucheng was following behind Jiang Beiran, it suddenly exploded.
“Howl! Roar! Roar!”
Listening to the angry Six-Tailed Fox shouting ” get lost ” in the beast language, Jiang Beiran gestured for it to keep quiet.””Shh, you should be happy to see him.”
The six-tailed fox’s six tails immediately drooped down after hearing that. It said aggrievedly,”Master… Is that old man coming…”
“Yes, the agreement has been reached. No matter what the outcome is, you don’t have to be locked in there anymore.”
” Waah!!!” The six-tailed fox cried out after hearing that. It rolled on the ground and said,”I don’t want to, I don’t want to. Then it’s better to keep me locked up. Master, don’t let that stinky old man come over, okay? I’m willing to stay here and be your pet.”
Just as the Six-Tailed Fox finished speaking, a figure descended from the sky and landed in front of the little fox with a smile.”Who did you say you didn’t want to come?”
This question scared the six-tailed fox out of its wits. It fell to the ground with its limbs spread out and let out miserable cries.
“Greetings, Sect Leader Yan.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands at Yan Guangqing.
Li Fucheng quickly shouted after hearing this,”Greetings, Sect Leader Yan.”
Nodding at the two of them, Yan Guangqing said,””Yes, you guys have raised this little fox well. It’s still lively.”
Faced with Yan Guangqing’s praise, Jiang Beiran did not know how to respond. After all, this was not a test at all. It was just a daily feeding session. Anyone could take care of themselves.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and replied,””Fortunately, I didn’t fail you.”
Yan Guangqing laughed when he heard that. He turned around and looked into the distance.”You, little emperor, are indeed quite interesting. When I came here, I looked around and found that there were quite a few strange things in one of the counties. What are those buildings that look like city walls in the river?”
“Sect Master Yan, that building is called a dam. It is used to intercept the water flow in the canal to raise the water level. Not only could it prevent floods, but it could also form a reservoir to help farmers irrigate their farmland.”
” Flood control, irrigate farmland, it’s really wonderful, it’s a pity that there’s no cultivation, otherwise this old man still thinks that the country also understands the importance of imperial power, it’s necessary for this old man to say.”
As they were talking, Yan Guangqing suddenly waved the bell in his hand.
With a ” ding ” sound, Li Fucheng suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body. He looked towards the north with extreme fear.
“Hahahaha…Good! What a Four Symbols Physique! It’s indeed wonderful!”
Sensing Lifu City’s reaction, Yan Guangqing suddenly laughed wildly, feeling that Granny Lin’s divination was indeed amazing.
As Yan Guangqing laughed wildly, Lifucheng was still in a state of extreme fear, as if his soul had been sucked away.
Jiang Beiran, on the other hand, was silently observing the situation. The old man and the young man, one laughing hysterically while the other was scared out of his wits, had given Jiang Beiran a rare feeling.
“Inexplicable.”
He had no idea what Yan Guangqing was laughing about, nor did he know what Lifu City was afraid of. This feeling was unfamiliar to Jiang Beiran, who was used to having everything under his control.
Finally, Yan Guangqing, who had laughed to his heart’s content, waved the bell in his hand again. With a ” ding “, Li Fucheng sat on the ground, his entire body drenched in sweat as if he had just taken a saunas bath.
Seeing Jiang Beiran looking at Lifu City, Yan Guangqing smiled and said,””Don’t worry, I’m just testing him.”
Without waiting for Jiang Beiran’s question, he explained,””This old man set up a Langya Formation a hundred miles away and used a secret technique to hide it. Just now, this old man used the bell to cancel the secret technique, but this kid actually sensed the Langya Formation that was not activated at all.”
‘Langya Array…’
Jiang Beiran sighed in his heart. This was the legendary ancient formation. Even Jiang Beiran did not know what the effect of this formation was.
‘Such a large array…Mystique Venerable One was indeed terrifying.’
“So Fu Cheng felt the terror of the Lang Ya Formation and was so frightened?”
“That’s right. One of the ten deadly formations of Langya’s town is not something that a puny great mystic cultivator like him can touch. Thus, just sensing the Dao is enough to make his guts break.”
‘Your testing method is a little too ruthless…’
After explaining, Yan Guangqing walked over to Lifucheng, who was still in shock, and said,””Your name is Lifucheng, right?”
Although Li Fucheng’s breathing was still a little hurried, he still forced himself to stand up and said,””Yes.”
“Are you willing to follow this old man in cultivating formations?”
He recalled what Big Brother Wang said yesterday,”If he really wants to take you as his disciple, you must cherish this opportunity.””Moreover, Li Fucheng thought that if he really wanted to help Big Brother Wang, he was still too weak.
So he knelt on the ground with a thud and bowed, shouting,”Master, please accept Fu Cheng’s bow!”
