The Great Sage of Humanity
Chapter 21 - Opening a Book the Wrong Way

...Inside the room on the Flying Dragon Boat, Lu Ye continued to look around. When he came to his senses, he realized that Elder Tang was already sitting on the bed. Therefore, he immediately walked over and sat down in front of her....

Sometimes, fate is really interesting. When Lu Ye met Elder Tang at the mine, he could not hope that he would join the latter Sect one day. Whatever the case, he finally had a place to stay from now on. Thinking of this, he felt warm in his heart. He had no choice when he decided to join the Crimson Blood Sect. However, if Elder Tang was also in the same Sect, it would be unacceptable.

"I am Tang Yi Feng," elder Tang uttered. "The tenth Master Sect of the Red Blood Sect."

Hearing that, Lu Ye was surprised. Although he did not know much about the cultivation world, he understood what a Sect Master was. Previously, he had speculated that Elder Tang held an important position in the Red Blood Sect, but he never expected that Elder Tang was actually the Sect Master. Therefore, he immediately saluted her. “Sect Master.”

Elder Tang nodded. “Although I have accepted you as a disciple, we have some rules in our Sect. Right now, you are just a disciple on paper, yet to become a formal disciple. You have to go through some tests first. I'm not going to talk about the test now because you'll find out after you join our Sect. Moreover, considering your cultivation now, you are still far from being able to take part in the.” exam

Lu Ye listened carefully and nodded. "I understand."

Previously, the mining slaves had to go through several tests if they wanted to join the Evil Moon Valley, so Lu Ye was not surprised to hear it from Elder Tang. Other than him, those chosen by the various Sects had also not become formal disciples. Each Sect had its own tests to check the temperament, morality, and other aspects of the disciples. Only by passing the examination can they be considered as formal disciples.

“The Red Blood Sect is located on Mount Ao in Bing Zhou. The sect has been around for a thousand years, and we have nurtured a number of 63,662 disciples. As for the Divine Sea Realm Master, there is. ”.

As Lu Ye listened to Elder Tang's narrative, the history of the Sect seemed to unfold like a scroll right in front of him, allowing him to grasp the Sect's basic information. Currently, he still did not understand what those numbers meant. When he realized how incredible those numbers would be in the future, he would be amazed.

A moment later, Elder Tang looked at him and said, "If there's anything you want to know, just ask me directly."

Lu Ye randomly asked a question that made him curious. “Secte Master, why didn't I see the other Big Brother and Senior Sister of our Sect during the raid on the Valley of the Evil Moon?”

He did not notice when Elder Tang went to pick him up. However, after learning that Elder Tang was the Sect Master of the Red Blood Sect, he immediately realized something. Elder Tang seemed to be the only one who came to this place. Otherwise, he would not have been the one to pick up Lu Ye. Each disciple could do the job of welcoming a novice, thus not requiring the Sect Master to appear personally.

“Alright..” Elder Tang coughed. The thing is, we don't have many people in the Sect.

After hearing his explanation, Lu Ye replied, "That means not many people are joining our Sect, and it is currently on the decline."

It seemed that was the case because the Ninth Level Sect was already at the bottom of the cultivation world in Jiu Zhou, so it was difficult for them to recruit any disciples. For example, out of the over a hundred mining slaves that were saved, only Lu Ye had chosen the Red Blood Sect, and the reason he did that was because of Pang Da Hai's advice.

“Yah... you are not wrong to say it.” Elder Tang looked helpless.

“Then, how many disciples are in the Sect now?”

Elder Tang said, “Change topic.”

"Huh?"

“Do you have no questions about cultivation?”

"Yes!" Lu Ye nodded in haste. “Currently, my first Spiritual Points are already full, but I cannot find a second Spiritual Point to unlock them. Please give me a hint.”

"I have a manual." As Lu Ye spoke, he began to take off his clothes, and under the shocked attention of Elder Tang, he took out his second Storage Bag from his inner sweatshirt.

This is the Manager Storage Bag That. Before Lu Ye decided to leave the secret passageway, he hid it behind a t-shirt inside. There were many precious items inside the bag, so he was worried that others would notice him. Since he had joined the Red Blood Sect, there was no longer any need to hide it from the Sect Master.

After looking at the Storage Bag on Lu Ye's waist and the bag that the young man had just picked up, the, Elder Tang immediately understood that Lu Ye had killed more than one person from the Evil Moon Valley in the mine. "You're a really sneaky guy!" he commented.

Smiling, Lu Ye took out a book from Manager Yang's bag and gave it to Elder Tang. “I have obtained the Gold Liberation Technique from an Evil Moon Valley cultivator, so I am not sure if I should cultivate it.”

“Since this is a cultivation technique, you can definitely cultivate it. What are you worried about?" Elder Tang took the book and opened it.

“This is a technique from an Evil Moon Valley cultivator, so I'm afraid it might be some kind of evil technique…” Lu Ye was unable to finish his words because he suddenly heard some strange sounds coming from Elder Tang. In this quiet room, voices sounded uneasy in the ears.

While the corner of Lu Ye's eyes twitched, Elder Tang looked excited.

The sounds became louder as some rhythmic moans were heard. There were also some strange conversations. If anyone outside the room heard it, they would think that the people inside the room were engaged in some sort of fraudulent activity.

Unable to hold it in anymore, Lu Ye approached to look at the book in Elder Tang's hands. As Elder Tang put his Inner Strength into the book, the characters on his page seemed to come alive. The voices Lu Ye heard came from this book.

It was only then that he finally realized that he had picked up the wrong book.

In total there are three books in Manager Yang's bag. One of them was the 'Biography of Sword Saints', and the other was the 'Golden Liberation Technique'. The last book was the one in Elder Tang's hands. Lu Ye randomly picked up a book, but he did not expect that this was the book he had picked up.

When he read the book in the past, he realized that the picture was perfect and the characters on his page were clear. However, it never crossed his mind that the book turned out to be so amazing. [Have I opened it the wrong way before?] That awareness made him stupefied.

As he was in a daze, Elder Tang suddenly closed his book. At that very instant, all the images and sounds disappeared.

As their eyes met, Lu Ye said, "Master Sect, this book ..."

Elder Tang seriously replied, “This is a double cultivation technique guide, which is very useful. However, you are still too young to learn it.”

“No, Sect Master. This is not my book. I obtained it from an Evil Moon Valley cultivator,” Lu Ye hurriedly explained.

Elder Tang nodded. "alright. You're still very young, so I'll keep it for you now. I'll give it back to you when you get older.

For some reason, Lu Ye considered Elder Tang's words to be no stranger.

Elder Tang had kept the incredible book, but there didn't seem to be any Storage Bags around his body, so Lu Ye wasn't sure where the old man kept the book.
