Lei Qianmo, Mu Rong and the Lu family's Lu Hong had become the foil. At the very least, Xuanyuan Potian and the sword could still go to the City Lord's Mansion.
However, the person who reaped the most benefits this time was undoubtedly the white-clothed youth from the Moon Region, Qin Xuan.
Assembling three types of power into one, with extraordinary talent, he had acknowledged Ximen Guyan as his master in front of everyone, which was something no one dared to think about, yet he did it.
Right now, he was following Ximen Guyan to the City Lord's Mansion, and he believed that there would be a change, his strength would increase again, and he would soon be walking the world as Ximen Guyan's successor.
Thinking to this point, many people couldn't help but reveal a trace of yearning on their faces. They could even foresee what kind of brilliant future Qin Xuan would have.
If it was said that they were walking in front of Qin Xuan before this, then from this moment on, Qin Xuan was as good as them, and had even surpassed them.
The stage was set up not far away from City Lord's Mansion, and with their speed, they arrived in the blink of an eye.
Ximen Guyan was at the very front, and didn't bother to introduce anything as he directly entered the City Lord's Mansion, while Ximen Bingyue, Qin Xuan and the rest stayed outside.
Looking at the building in front of him, Qin Xuan couldn't help but have a strange expression flash past his eyes, as if he couldn't believe it.
The building in front of him gave Qin Xuan a simple and crude impression.
Not only was it not as brilliant and magnificent as he had imagined, it was filled with halls and halls, and was even inferior to the palaces of ordinary Emperor Stage powerhouses s. He had been to the Stellar Lord of the Northern Dipper s before, and they were all luxurious and magnificent.
On the other hand, Xuanyuan Potian, Yan Qing and the rest were not surprised, as though they had already understood it, and was only somewhat surprised at first glance, but quickly calmed down.
Seemingly sensing the disbelief in Qin Xuan's eyes, Ximen Bingyue said lightly: "It's good to get used to it, but actually the environment inside is still not bad."
"Do all the Rankers in Tianxuan Nine Domains like this kind of arrangement?" Qin Xuan asked with a wry smile.
"What, you don't want to live here? If you don't want to, you don't have to. Ximen Bingyue said casually, with an expression like he couldn't take it anymore.
"Of course, only by living in a place like this can I truly forget everything and return to my heart. I am extremely happy." Qin Xuan said in all seriousness, as if he had completely forgotten what he had just said.
"Truly fickle." Yan Qing said coldly, he did not even look at Qin Xuan, and directly walked forward.
Qin Xuan's expression was stupefied as he stared at Yan Qing's back figure. He muttered to himself, "What's wrong with him?
With that, Qin Xuan instantly felt three peculiar gazes landing on his body, he could not help but turn his head, and saw Ximen Bingyue, Xuanyuan Potian and even the sword looking at him strangely.
"Did I say something wrong?" Qin Xuan asked, a little confused.
Ximen Bingyue sighed lightly. Xuanyuan Potian patted Qin Xuan's shoulder and said somewhat sympathetically: "Take care, brother. No one can avoid such a thing.
After that, Ximen Bingyue and Xuanyuan Potian left together, leaving Qin Xuan and the sword standing on the spot awkwardly.
"What are you trying to say?" Qin Xuan was still confused, he looked at the sword and laughed: "It seems like only you and I are people with pure hearts, they think too much, no wonder cultivation is not enough."
The sword shook its head. After a moment of silence, it asked, "You really don't know anything?"
"Know what?" Qin Xuan blinked his eyes. Had he forgotten something?
Seeing that Qin Xuan's expression did not seem to be fake, the sword also looked at Qin Xuan with sympathy, this fellow's Inherent Skill is so good, can't you see that he really did not see anything?
Taking a deep breath, the sword slowly spoke. "Prepare yourself mentally. This matter might have a great impact on you."
Qin Xuan was completely speechless. What do you want to say?
"He might like you a little." The sword finally said it out loud as a sense of relief rose in his heart. After living for so many years, this was also the first time he had encountered such a thing.
When he said that, Qin Xuan's expression immediately became stiff, the him at the sword mouth, was obviously referring to Yan Qing.
However, how was this possible?
"Impossible." Qin Xuan continuously shook his head, denying the possibility in his heart. How could there be such a thing?
If the sword knew what Qin Xuan was thinking at the moment, it would be shocked. There was actually such a narcissistic person in this world.
"It sounds ridiculous, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell what's going on. You should prepare yourself." The sword comforted Qin Xuan, and then walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
Now, only Qin Xuan was left standing there alone. A gentle breeze blew and his hair floated up.
"Did I really underestimate my looks? I shouldn't …" Qin Xuan said to himself. His expression was extremely serious, as if he was considering an important question.
Even he himself did not know that after interacting with the Fen Old Master, the Nether Demon Emperor and Feng Qing, he had gradually been assimilated.
"Boy, don't think too much. No matter how handsome you are, you are still several thousand miles away from me." Feng Qing's voice transmitted over, and he was never about to give up any opportunity to strike at Qin Xuan.
A strange look flashed across Qin Xuan's eyes, and he said: "Big Brother Feng, you have also seen him, do you think that is possible?"
Feng Qing was silent for a while, and only replied after a long while: "I don't know. You want to go yourself."
After saying these words, Feng Qing seemed to have disappeared. No matter how Qin Xuan called out to him, he was unwilling to say another word.
In the end, Qin Xuan walked into the City Lord's Mansion with a helpless attitude. When he walked into this simple building, Qin Xuan immediately felt something was wrong.
Scanning the surroundings, Qin Xuan saw that there was a thin layer of light curtain on top of the City Lord's Mansion's walls that was emitting extremely weak fluctuations. If one did not carefully observe, it would be extremely difficult to discover that the light curtain was like a formation that enveloped the entire City Lord's Mansion.
Not only that, the City Lord's Mansion seemed to be separated from the outside world, forming its own world. The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was more than ten times as thick as the outside world, and was practically the densest out of all the places Qin Xuan had been to.
Qin Xuan's eyes immediately flashed with a look of wild joy, this City Lord's Mansion looked normal and nothing special, but he never thought that he would actually be hiding something, if he was not experiencing it for himself, he would not be able to understand the difference.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Xuan had thought it through.
"Come to the Inner Academy. I have something to tell you." At this time, a calm voice came from the void, and clearly entered Qin Xuan's ears.
Qin Xuan's expression congealed, and looked towards the depths of the courtyard. It should be the inner courtyard, his figure flashed, and immediately he flew deeper into the courtyard.
The size of City Lord's Mansion did not differ much from the outside world's, and was indeed not that big. The inner and outer courtyard were very close, with only a lake separating them.
The inner courtyard was very small. It was on the other side of the lake, and with a glance, he could see everything except for the flowers, plants, trees, and a few pavilions, a stone seat, and four stone stools.
At this time, there were already five people waiting inside the pavilion. They were Ximen Guyan and her daughter, Yan Qing and her sword, as well as Xuanyuan Potian.
Qin Xuan flew in the air, the tip of his foot lightly tapped on the water surface from time to time.
Seeing Qin Xuan coming over, a tinge of pleasant surprise flashed across Yan Qing's eyes, but they disappeared in an instant. He became expressionless again, as if he did not care about Qin Xuan.
"Master." Qin Xuan steadily landed on the ground and shouted at Ximen Guyan.
Ximen Guyan, however, did not look at him, and only said lightly: "Tell me, why have you taken me as your master?"
Qin Xuan's expression froze, he did not expect Ximen Guyan to suddenly ask about this, but he still answered honestly: "Disciple hopes to learn zither technique."
"Cultivating the zither technique is not something that can be done in a day and a night. You have no sound foundation, and to cultivate to the Master Realm, you will need at least several thousand years. Are you willing to wait?"
"Thousands of years!" Qin Xuan's heart trembled, he looked at Ximen Guyan in disbelief, and asked: "Why is it so long?"
Ximen Guyan rolled his eyes at Qin Xuan, and said: "Do you think the zither technique is so easy to learn? A thousand years of time is already enough with a talent like yours, if your talent was ordinary, you might not even be able to master it even after ten thousand years."
Qin Xuan's heart was in a mess. Although he thirsted to cultivate the zither technique, he could not possibly spend thousands of years to learn it. He could not wait, there were still more important things that he needed to accomplish.
Qin Xuan suddenly thought of something, glanced at Ximen Bingyue, and said: "There's no need to cultivate to the realm of Master, you just need to have Senior Sister's level of zither technique."
When Ximen Bingyue heard Qin Xuan calling her senior sister, her face immediately lit up with happiness, but before the smile could bloom on her face, a cold voice sounded, completely froze her smile.
"Do you think that her zither technique is very high? It's fine to play with it, but if you want to become my disciple, I won't let you walk around in the world without meeting my requirements. It's too embarrassing."
Qin Xuan said with a serious expression, and didn't seem to be joking in the slightest. Qin Xuan completely believed Ximen Guyan's words;
Seeing that Qin Xuan was silent, Ximen Guyan opened his mouth once again: "Right now, there are two paths ahead of you. The first path, is to truly acknowledge me as your teacher and learn the zither technique.
With that said, Qin Xuan's heart trembled. Was he going to make his own choice?
Ximen Bingyue and Yan Qing looked at this scene calmly, as if they had already predicted this would happen, while Xuanyuan Potian and Sword became even more confused. Since Ximen Guyan had agreed to it in public, why did he go back on his words?
With so many people witnessing Qin Xuan taking in a master, everyone knew that Qin Xuan was Ximen Guyan's disciple.
