The Flute Groaning From Mount Han.
Chapter 7.
If Zhaolong's closeness to the water element is described as a pair of lovers who are drunk with romance, then the closeness of the Gui elders with wooden elements like a couple who understand each other without hiding the slightest secret.
The entire hair of the originally white Gui elder now blackened slowly, even though it was only a few strands.
The wrinkles on his face also surprisingly started to fade slowly.
"The pure Qi of the wood element becomes a symbol of vitality, if your body is baptized by the energy of the wood qi for some time then your appearance will be slowly full of vitality, Elder Gui.".
"Yes, you're right, son. The pure qi energy of this wood element did indeed have a rejuvenating effect although it was slow.".
Zhaolong whose facial expression was calm with a blank look looked towards the elder Gui who had a calm temperament with a firm smile on his face, the glaring eyes of elder Gui added the impression of a man who was very dependable.
The two people who were enveloped in pure qi energy in white and green looked at each other face to face.
Hong Yan who looked at the two could not hide the envious expression on his face.
'Ah! Even a man over 500 years old now looks handsome after learning this technique!.
Whatever happens, I will ask junior Zhao for guidance until I can learn the basic breathing of my own elemental branch.'.
The three inner court female disciples also had envious eyes, the three of them simultaneously decided inwardly to learn the basic breathing techniques of their respective elemental branches.
They long for what kind of posture they will show after entering the basic respiratory condition, they hope that their temperament will become very beautiful.
"Alright son, now you are an inner disciple of the Eternal Bamboo sect. The inner court sect disciples had some special rights.
The inner sect disciple had the right to worship an elder as a teacher to guide his cultivation as well as his martial practice, unlike the outer sect disciple who could only learn techniques through scrolls and fumbled at his own palpation.
The inner sect disciples were also entitled to have a private hill as a residence close to his master mountain.
The inner sect disciples were also entitled to bring 5 outer disciples to stay on the hill and take care of their daily needs.".
"Chairman Gui, if possible.
I would like to exchange basic breathing techniques for a private mountain to live in.
I don't need any sect contribution points.".
Elder Gui did not expect Zhaolong's request to be so disgraceful.
What is the difference between a mountain and a hill except its size and size? Exchanging a new technique that had the potential to evolve with a mountain was not a disadvantage to the sect.
Did the little man in front of him dislike the small size of the hill?
Looks like this little guy likes big things like mountains.
Keep in mind that only core disciples have the privilege of choosing a mountain as a residence.
That was because all the core disciples were substitutes for the elders, they were nurtured by their teachers and took over the position of the teacher later.
So the mountain they occupy will be their residence until they die later.
The core disciples of the Eternal Bamboo sect now had a number of approximately 20 people.
Their ages were average between 40 to 50 years old and 1 main elder should only have 1 core disciple.
Such as sect master, law hall elder, medicine pavilion elder, library elder, treasure room elder, weapon forging master elder, gate guard elder, outer court elder, sect guard elder, the guardian elders of medicinal plants, the rune master elders and many more.
While the court disciples in the immortal bamboo sect had a number of approximately 50 disciples.
With a stern face that had a smile, elder Gui answered Zhaolong's request without hesitation.
"Alright, your request for this old man to convey to the sect master.
About who will be your master, we will decide after the elders have a meeting to negotiate.
Now let Hong Yan escort you to the sect disciple pavilion to retrieve the identity of the disciple along with the inner court disciple robe.".
"Thank you elder, then junior please resign.".
The inner sect disciples started to say their greetings before leaving the gate guard pavilion.
Originally Zhaolong wanted to go alone towards the sect disciple pavilion, but Hong Yan followed him even though Zhaolong had already rejected it as there was no need to trouble others.
It was just that Hong Yan had always forced to come along on the grounds of wanting to ask for basic breathing technique advice.
While the three girls from the inner court also followed the two from behind.
For the three Zhaolong was an unreal figure like a character coming out of a novel, the three of them were certainly very curious to know which mountain Zhaolong would choose to occupy from the hundreds of mountains that were around the sect.
If the mountain that Zhaolong chose was close to the hill they lived on, then it was not impossible to establish a closer relationship.
Which girl is not interested in having a relationship with a popular man, moreover the three watched with their own eyes the genius of Zhaolong.
If they could bring Zhaolong home as a royal son-in-law, wouldn't their kingdom prosper?.
After the five revolved around the sect, they finally stopped at a foot of the mountain that was to the east of the sect.
"Brother Hong Yan, what is the name of this mountain?.".
Hong Yan saw that the mountain pointed by Zhaolong had peach trees with pink leaves that distinguished it from other mountains.
"This mountain, commonly called Mount Han. Thousands of years ago, a familiar elder called elder Han lived on this mountain.
The reason for the large number of peach trees planted on this mountain is because after the death of his wife, elder Han planted dozens of peach trees in memory of his wife who was very fond of peaches.
It was said that every time he woke up, elder Han would call his wife's name.
Hoping to see his dead wife come back to life and play under the peach tree he planted.".
Zhaolong who heard the story that Hong Yan told could only sigh and shake his head.
"This elder Han, it's really sad.".
Hearing Zhaolong's speaking tone that seemed to be mocking elder Han, the four of them nearly toppled over as they walked.
Moreover Hong Yan who had seen the pitiful appearance of Zhaolong one year ago.
"Mitha!?.".
Hearing Hong Yan summon the name of the most important person in his heart, Zhaolong's originally calm expression instantly changed in an instant with an expression full of sadness.
Even Zhaolong looked around like he was looking for someone.
"Mitha's? Where is Mitha!!!?.".
The lips of the four men twitched.
'Dude, what do you mean to say elder Han is pathetic with a tone full of sarcasm?
Your fate is even thousands of times more miserable than elder Han! What makes you think elder Han's life is more miserable than yours? Where did you get that arrogance?! The joke!.'.
Hong Yan could only curse inwardly, he would not curse Zhaolong blatantly or he would not be able to learn such a handsome technique that Zhaolong created.
The five started towards the top of Han mountain and found an ancient 3-story villa that stood firmly on top of the mountain range.
The villa yard has been filled with thickets, even the pool that should be a place to relax has been grown by many wild plants.
Hong Yan and the three girls who were following Zhaolong began to summon outer sect disciples who became caretakers of their daily necessities.
With so many people helping out, cleaning up the old villa only took a few hours.
When Zhaolong and the others were cleaning the Villa, the Gui elder was now in a large room that had many chairs.
An old man with a beard and long white hair stroked his beard as he looked at elder Gui.
"So you mean, the kid just wants the mountain as a place to live?.".
"True sect master, that was the only request of Zhao boy.".
"Which mountain did the boy choose the elder Gui?.".
Elder Gui began to circulate his spiritual awareness and catch the breath of Zhaolong who was at the top of Han mountain.
The Gui elder who knew of Zhaolong's choice could only smile wryly.
"Like it was Mount Han, the sect master.".
The elders who heard the Gui elders reply looked at each other with a wry look.
The reason why Han Mountain had not been in residence for the past thousand years was because before the Han elder had occupied the mountain, it had already changed masters several times.
And all the elders who occupy the mountain will lose their loved ones.
All the mountains and hills that were in the Eternal Bamboo sect region came from different places.
The first generation Immortal Bamboo sect master along with the elders who were the same era as him moved mountains and hills to build the Eternal Bamboo sect.
And within the sect scrolls that descended from generation to generation, the first generation sect master declared carrying the mountain from the ruins of the immortal sect that had dispersed after the outbreak of civil war within the sect.
Within the sect scrolls there were also some records that recorded every tragedy of the elders occupying Mount Han.
There was no difference about the calamity that the sect elders suffered, all of them experienced the same calamity of losing their most loved ones.
"But didn't this little man have lost the person he loved the most? Wouldn't the curse be invalid?.".
Elder Gui asked the elders who were in the room, the elders started to think and nod one by one.
"Considerably, maybe this little guy can change the fate of Mount Han.".
"Well, I hope. After all, Mount Han is a silent witness to the history of our sect.".
The sect master who felt what they were discussing had finished started to tap his finger on the chair to attract the attention of the elders.
"Because what needs to be discussed has been discussed and got a way out, now this meeting has been completed.
The elders were invited to return to their respective mountains and to work on their responsibilities.".
"Please retreat, Sect Master.".
The elders spoke in unison
before turning over and leaving quickly.
The sect master of the Eternal Bamboo could only let out a long sigh.
'The Old goats hate trouble the most, they love to be lazy.'.
Among the elders of the sect, a girl who looked to be in her 25s flew towards Mount Han.
This girl was Yu XianEr, the youngest sect elder within the Eternal Bamboo sect at this period.
Yu Xian Er was able to become a sect elder at an age before stepping on the head of three and her cultivation base had reached the realm of condensing dao.
His cultivation stage was the same as that of a 500-year-old old monster like elder Gui, although Yu Xianer was at the initial level whereas elder Gui was at the final level and only took a step to ascend to the rebirth realm.
Whereas the sect master of the Eternal Bamboo was at the domain lord stage, the realm above rebirth.
Getting the order to nurture 1 more disciples in made Yu XianEr a little unhappy.
Yu XianEr had already guided the 7 girl disciples from the inner court.
Previously he had vehemently refused to become a Zhaolong master because Zhaolong was a man.
As a genius who successfully entered the realm of dao development before the age of 30, The famous genius and beautiful Yu Xian Er was not very fond of interacting with the opposite sex after being proposed by thousands of men who gave her a headache.
Because the man's gaze when looking at him will only produce 2 expressions, amazed expressions that culminate in a request to ask him or a lewd look that looks like he will want to chew his body.
It made Yu XianEr distrustful of men, for her all men were the same looking at beauty and body shape.
There were no sincere men according to Yu XianEr.
The old goats who had been elders for hundreds of years began to lazily work on their responsibilities.
Finally under the pretext of Yu XianEr being a genius in this era then he had to take a genius as well, moreover both of them were the same using a long sword.
Framed by dozens of old goats who lost their working spirit, Yu XianEr ended up losing a landslide.
After flying using the sword for some time, Yu XianEr finally reached the top of Han mountain.
Han mountain villa now looks clean after being rearranged by the students, the pool which was originally full of wild plants now looks beautiful with a peach tree that surrounds the pond.
Although Yu XianEr was an elder, all this time he had never visited Han Mountain because he had never felt that bored to randomly go down the mountain.
After entering the villa, Yu XianEr saw a young man sitting in a lotus position in the middle room of the villa.
The young man seemed to close his eyes and his entire body was covered in pure qi energy, a storm of water that slowly formed a white-colored mist.
"Is there anything I can help you with, senior?.".
Seeing the young man before him already finding himself and asking unceremoniously made Yu XianEr so angry that the young man asked without even opening his eyelids! The young man still closed his eyes as if he did not care about his arrival.
He was Yu XianEr, a genius who entered the realm of condensing dao when he was 30 years old!
It had been a long time since he had become an elder and there were disciples who were so presumptuous to him.
The heart of Yu XianEr who had the title of a genius could not accept it.
