A Journey Against the World

A Journey Against the World
Chapter 140


Kunlun sect is one of the neutral schools, there are not many conflicts with the kingdom or conflicts between black and white sects. The Kunlun Sect was also quite famous as one of the great sects that gave birth to many talented Cultivators especially proficient in swordsmanship, although the Kunlun sect order is in the fifth position but quite a number of government parties and other universities recognize the Kunlun sect.


The training resources as well as the equipment of the Kunlun sect were also quite affected, usually once a month the Kunlun sect would hand out three items of profound energy-boosting pills to all disciples.


The condition of the Kunlun sect is also quite good, the buildings are still sturdy and strong, their land is also spacious, even the Kunlun sect also has one waterfall where the water is suitable to be used to practice.


Currently the Kunlun sect was led by an elder man named Yueliang, an elder of nearly three hundred years old, his cultivation level was also quite high, another level the sect leader was about to enter the Nirwana cultivation level.


***


After escorting the new disciples to their respective dormitories, Jiang Liang immediately went to the special residence of the Great Elder of the Kunlun sect's caretaker. She had promised Shua Xie that she would help him ask him how to become an inner disciple faster, even if the promise did not help quickly but at least informed Shua Xie's request might be considered a Great Elder.


The residence of the Great Elder was quite hidden and private, so not many disciples knew the residence of the Great Elder within the Kunlun sect. Moreover, the Great Elder deliberately covered his existence because he wanted to focus on increasing his cultivation to the next level.


Peach flowers fell when Jiang Liang entered a small but very beautiful courtyard. The garden that planted so many peach trees was so beautiful. The atmosphere of the yard was quite calm and comfortable, plus the air was quite cool with a gentle breeze blowing.


Jiang Liang continued to step his feet towards one small hut made of bamboo. Jiang Liang could see that an elder older than him was calmly ascending. When Jiang Liang was already in front of that elder figure, he immediately saluted.


"Big Chief, I came here with a little news," said Jiang Liang as he looked down.


The man that Jiang Liang called the Great Elder was still silent, not showing the slightest response. But a few seconds later the Great Elder named Yueliang spoke, "Then did anything interesting happen?"


"There's a Big Elder. A young girl had good talent, and now the girl had already entered the Kunlun sect. It was just that the young girl wanted to instantly become an inner disciple," Jiang Liang replied cautiously afraid that his words offended the huge figure in front of him, because for the first time he reported a case like this.


Yueliang opened her eyes looking at Jiang Liang before her still paying her respects, "Whatever talent he is, the Kunlun sect still holds strong rules no matter he's of noble descent or not." Yueliang greeted a peach petal that flew towards her, then stared at the petal deeply enough, "However, since you said the girl was very talented. Maybe I can consider it, bring him here and I'll test myself what the danger is. If it's like you said, I might be able to make him my inner disciple as well as my disciple." Yueliang.


Jiang Liang immediately raised his gaze, as his face was quite shocked. No Jiang Liang thought Yueliang was also interested in the girl, even intending to make her disciple directly if indeed the girl was as talented as Jiang Liang said. If it was like this, Jiang Liang also felt quite proud that someone he recommended could become a disciple of the Great Elder, wouldn't he boast of himself as a recommendation? Plus all this time Yueliang only had one disciple, if the girl could become the second ranked disciple the girl would be quite looked upon in the Kunlun sect.


"Great Chief, the girl had quite good speed and physical strength, even during the fight the girl did not take out a single move but she could win. I'm sure the girl is quite talented and indeed deserves to be a disciple of the Great Elder," Jiang Liang replied a little enthusiastically.


Yueliang closed his right palm with his left hand, a few seconds later Yueliang raised his left palm again and saw the previously intact peach petals had been split into pieces.


"Bakat or not someone is also seen from his attitude, attitude can also be a determinant of how the end of the self-defense." Yueliang gave a figurative word.


Jiang Liang lowered his head back, he understood the intent of Yueliang. Yueliang only reminded useless talented if it does not have good morals, if bringing up the moral, Jiang Liang could not say the girl's morale was good enough considering when the fight happened the girl slightly demeaned the opponent.


But Jiang Liang was sure, if brought Yueliang guidance surely the attitude of the girl could change for the better.


"Brought with the guidance of the Great Elder, the girl will definitely change for the better," Jiang Liang replied softly, "In addition, the Eternal Realm Mainland will soon be open just waiting for the day. I'm sure that girl can develop even more if she's with the other chosen student." Jiang Liang added again.


Something if the more polished and improved will surely get better, as the saying goes. The girl did have a slightly disrespectful temperament, but if she had known the cruel good of the world, Jiang Liang was sure that the attitude of the girl would slowly change. Like Jiang Liang himself, he used to have a bad attitude until finally his teacher taught him to be better, didn't that way the girl also have a chance to change because of someone's guidance?


But it all depends on someone teaching it.


"The Land of the Eternal Realm is not a random land. Sending new disciples was also not a good choice, there was too danger for a new disciple like him. Remember, there have been many dead people there, and we send disciples there not to die in vain. We sent them to make them better in terms of attitude and strength" Yueliang replied.


Feeling guilty, Jiang Liang again saluted, "I'm sorry Big Elder, I was too enthusiastic about the young girl hearing the Great Elder could make her a personal disciple of the Great Elder."  Just now that Jiang Liang was feeling happy now he felt ashamed, before the Great Elder he noticed his naive nature. Expecting too much of man from himself.


Yueliang understood Jiang Liang's attitude considering that the man's temper was indeed too enthusiastic about something that caught his attention. After all Yueliang knew, if Jiang Liang was interested in something meant that something was indeed good as he said.


"Everything goes back to the girl you were referring to, if indeed she has good potential it might indeed be her destiny to go to the Eternal Realm Mainland." Yueliang did not want to discourage Jiang Liang, therefore he did not directly say no to Jiang Liang's expression.


"Both right. Then I'll tell the girl this news."


***


Half a day passed quite quickly, Shua Xie was still waiting for news from Elder Jiang Liang. Seeing Elder Jiang Liang for quite a while had not given him any news, Shua Xie could surmise, that his request would definitely be very hard to accept, if anyone accepted it not necessarily the other Elders would agree. There must have been a bit of a debate between the Elders.


'Could it be that my request is too fast?' Shua Xie sighed softly while thinking that indeed this request was a little excessive. Shua Xie was just a freshman entering, asking to become an inner disciple directly was certainly too much, no matter how talented Shua Xie still had to follow the procedures.


'If I can't, I can't force it. That way my journey to the eastern continent can also be accelerated. But, I am quite curious about the Eternal Realm Mainland, what kind of place it is.' Shua Xie got up from the bed he was sitting on, walking towards the door.


Staying quiet for quite a while in his residence also made Shua Xie bored, hearing Jiang Liang's explanation of the Kunlun sect made Shua Xie a little interested in wanting to tour the sect. At least he could get to know the Kunlun sect more closely before he left later.


When Shua Xie opened the door, he was surprised by the appearance of a girl at his age. The girl in clothes made of black leather scales with one large sword perched on her shoulder. The girl as tall as Shua Xie was smiling widely, very widely to Shua Xie.


"Hello! I'm Xingxing, your best friend." The girl introduced herself in such a cheerful tone as if she and Shua Xie were already so familiar.


Shua Xie was silent for a moment, recalling that Jiang Liang had once told him he had a housemate and had arrived quite late because that one disciple was a noble family, more precisely the Princess of Emperor Wexin.


Emperor Wexin was the leader of the Wind Nation. The Wind Nation was divided into several parts, including the Red Cloud city a part of the Wind country although the Red Cloud city was not a large city. The capital of the Wind country was named Haiyang where the Feng empire was located. Jiang Liang also said his housemate was the son of Emperor Wexin, the leader of the Wind Nation. Although this will be very difficult but Shua Xie also has no right to refuse the existing rules.


Shua Xie returned Xingxing's smile with a slightly stiff smile, either forgetting the way of a smile or how, seeing Xingxing as a cheerful figure appeared a bad premonition in Shua Xie's mind, "Hello is also Princess Xinxing, I'm Shua Xie," Shua Xie replied a little awkwardly while saluting. Although the standing of Shua Xie and Xingxing were both Princesses, but in the Underworld the status of Shua Xie was nothing.


Xingxing shook Shua Xie's hand and pulled her out, "You don't call me Princess, just call me Xingxing."


Hearing Xingxing's reply, Shua Xie was slightly surprised, 'How could I call the son of the Emperor the leader of this country by name alone. Isn't it the same as me looking for trouble?' shua Xie said inwardly, feeling more and more anxious about the girl's quite open nature, 'This hunch seems to be very familiar.'


Seeing that Shua Xie was not speaking anymore, Xingxing understood and returned to speaking, "No need to worry, my status is meaningless in my eyes. For me it is strength that deserves to be seen," Xinxing explained as she clenched her hands tightly.


Simply looking at Xinxing's attitude, Shua Xie could guess the girl wanted strength rather than standing, from her words alone everyone could digest her meaning, she said, the little girl with the status of Princess preferred to be viewed because it was strong rather than viewed as status. There must be a reason that made the little girl behave this way.


'So he came to the Kunlun sect just wanting to be strong?' Guess Shua Xie in her heart.
