The Legend of the Sacred Sword Cultivator
Ch 16: Becoming Chang An's Disciple

'Duarr.' came a small explosive sound from Yang Jian's body.

"Arghhhh..uhuk uhuk" Fresh blood came out from Yang Jian's mouth, his face was pale and his entire body trembled.

"Jian'er what happened to you?" Chang An who was inside the room approached Yang Jian who was training in the backyard of his residence when he heard Yang Jian's shouting voice.

"It's okay, brother, I'm just pushing my body too hard." Yang Jian tried to get up on his feet but his body almost fell down.

Chang An helped Yang Jian stand up and carried him towards the residence.

"Are you stupid? Don't you know what the risks are when a cultivator forces his body?" Chang An snapped at Yang Jian he was completely infuriated by Yang Jian's stubborn nature.

It had been a month since Yang Jian's arrival in the Jade Sect, during which time he continued to practice the science of Xiao Ming's book, the events in Xemin city made him determined to be strong and strong, he was lucky enough in the last moments Chang An saved his life.

But that doesn't mean in the future he can be this lucky, his one-on-one path is to be strong to protect himself.

Yang Jian was not part of the sect therefore he was not trained by Chang An, Yang Jian only practiced the Xiao Ming teachings and perfected his swordsmanship.

Yet every science and book that Xiao Ming gave him was a rare high-level science and scripture that Yang Jian could only learn his initial level before his practice increased to study his later stages.

The moment Yang Jian had successfully mastered the second stage celestial dragon swordsmanship he was trying to learn stage three, he, however, one thing that passed by Yang Jian was that his body had not been able to receive the knowledge because the level of his practice was not yet high, because it was too imposing his body as a result of Yang Jian suffering internal injuries, if only Yang Jian had never practiced at the waterfall and consumed the herbs in the Valley of Hell might Yang Jian's body have already exploded.

"Inspect Jian'er brother." This was the first time Chang An was angry and yelled at Yang Jian, he became very guilty.

Chang An did not tell him to drain his qi into Yang Jian's body to help ease his pain, after which Chang An tried to treat Yang Jian in silence, it was fortunate that Yang Jian's internal injuries were only minor internal injuries.

~~

"As usual, we will still be taking part in the Young Cultivator Tournament held in five months, I hope you prepare the students who will participate later."

A man who still looked young and dashing was having an important meeting with all the elders of the sect including elder Chang An, he was the patriarch of the jade sect, Feng Yin.

"I will leave it to the elders to choose a talented disciple" he continued

" His wish at this tournament is one of our sect disciples in the top five." Feng Yin said expectantly.

" I'm sorry patriarch, don't you think it's rude to patriarch if we make our own decisions?" An elder spoke up, he was an elder Shing. Elder Shing is famous for sycophant elders, he always tries to get the patriarch's attention.

"There's no need to commend elder Shing, you're the one who knows more about the talents of the disciples than I do."

Feng Yin also realized the insincerity in elder Shing's words but she had to remain professional.

~~

It had been a week that Yang Jian had kept silent in the room to treat his internal injuries, with the help of the herbs from the Valley of Hell now he was completely healed.

During this week as well Yang Jian continued to ponder, he should not be selfish he should have a teacher to teach him a science that was in accordance with his current body abilities and practices.

He also could not issue the teaching of Xiao Ming just any or would endanger his life, because the high level of science is so in the interest of all cultivators. It could be Yang Jian's life that became his bet.

Chang An walked into Yang Jian's room and sat down on the edge of the bed

"How are you Jian 'er"

"It's fully recovered brother." Yang Jian took a slow breath, he then got up from his bed and kowtowed at Chang An's feet

"Please accept Jian'er to be brother's disciple"

Chang An spontaneously stood up in shock

" A what does this mean Jian'er?" Chang An was doubtful of what he saw at the moment

" Right big brother, Jian'er wants to be big brother's disciple."

"really? Are you not kidding" Chang An still refused to believe because Chang An had asked Yang Jian several times about his decision to enter the sect but was always rejected by Yang Jian.

Yang Jian did not answer Chang An's question

" Pupil saluted to teacher Chang An." he kowtowed three times as a sign that Yang Jian had raised Chang An to be his teacher.

Chang An smiled happily and ordered Yang Jian to stand up

"Arise Jian'er the teacher received your respect."

Today Yang Jian finally legitimately became part of the jade sect.

" Guru will enroll you as a special disciple of the teacher to the administration so that you can legally become part of the Jade Sect."

Chang An and Yang Jian went to the administration section, along the way they became the center of attention.

"Hail elder Chang." a young man of Yang Jian's age who was followed by three others greeted Chang An while on the way, he was Feng Yu the son of patriarch Feng Yin.

Patriarch Feng Yin was indeed married at an aged age therefore the age of his son was still very young. Feng Yu's mother died in childbirth due to an illness she suffered.

Feng Yu grew up in foster care by his father, all this time Feng Yu was so admiring the prowess of Chang An regardless at his young age. Feng Yu often asked Chang An to be his teacher but Chang An refused on the grounds that he was not yet capable enough to take a disciple.

Then Feng Yu asked for the father's help to help persuade Chang An to want to become his teacher but Chang An refused subtly on the same grounds, Feng Yin did not force it further, although he was offended by Chang An's refusal, he still respected Chang An's decision.

Feng Yu was not discouraged, he assumed that Chang An had refused him to become a disciple because he was not yet strong enough to be the disciple of the handsome elder, every day he trained to be strong in order to attract Chang An's attention.

"Yu'er, how are you?" chang An asked, while Yang Jian was just silent, he already knew about Feng Yu's obsession towards Chang An from the sect disciples who were talking and accidentally sounded Yang Jian.

Feng Yu continued to invite Chang An to speak regardless of Yang Jian, he was like even considering Yang Jian to be non-existent.

" We go first Yu'er there's something we have to do." Chang An ended their obrolah.

" Good elder, sorry to have taken the elder's time."
