Chapter 2 Climbing the Seven Peaks, You Dare to Refuse Me?
"I'm sorry, Master Jin, I... don't really want to go to the first peak."
Xu Taiping didn't hesitate much and directly rejected the leader of the first peak.
Upon hearing this, the corner of Na Jinyue's mouth twitched, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, but immediately he looked at Xu Taiping with a smile on his face and said:
"Which peak you choose is your freedom, Taiping, and it is also the rule of our Qingxuan Sect."
When he said this, he glanced at Uncle Jiu inadvertently.
If Uncle Jiu hadn't been there, he wouldn't have been so polite to Xu Taiping, and he would have probably thrown away his sleeves and left on the spot.
After seeing Xu Taiping reject the first peak, the other peaks became energetic again and looked at Xu Taiping expectantly.
Seeing this, Xu Taiping wanted to scratch his head again.
"I……"
"etc."
He was about to tell these people that he just wanted to go to the Seventh Peak, but he was interrupted by Uncle Jiu on the side.
"Little guy, I'll give you another choice."
Uncle Jiu drank all the wine in the gourd, then wiped his mouth and looked at Xu Taiping with a smile.
"Nine...Master-uncle, please tell me."
Xu Taiping was a little curious about what Uncle Jiu wanted to say.
"You boy, although you are a bit weak and your appearance is not as handsome as when I was young, but for the sake of your performance in today's sword-fighting, I can barely accept you as my closed disciple."
Uncle Jiu picked his ears with his little finger and pretended to be nonchalant.
But such an understatement caused an explosion both inside and outside the stadium.
"What, didn't I hear it wrong? Uncle Master wants to accept a disciple?"
"No way, my uncle hasn't had a disciple for more than a hundred years."
There was a lot of chatter on the field.
The leader of that week finally couldn't stand anymore.
"Uncle Junior Master, do you want to recruit a disciple here?"
He took a step forward and asked Uncle Jiu.
Although he was trying his best to stay calm while speaking, his eyes full of confusion and shock still betrayed him.
"no?"
Uncle Jiu gave the head of that week a cold look.
"This...isn't this a bit abrupt? You accept a disciple, but this is an important matter for our sect, and we can't play it off like this."
Head Zhou persuaded.
Over the years, he has sent many disciples with good skills to Uncle Jiu, and wanted them to pass on Uncle Jiu's sword skills, but none of them could be admired by Uncle Jiu.
Among them was Ye Xuan, who was being supported by Jin Hezhi at the moment.
"puff!"
When Uncle Jiu said that he wanted to accept Xu Taiping as his disciple, Ye Xuan, who was already filled with anger and anger, finally couldn't help but vomited blood in anger.
Jin He Zhi shook his head when he saw this and took him away from the ring.
"Are you calling me childish?"
After listening to Master Zhou's persuasion, Uncle Jiu put down his wine gourd and stared at Master Zhou quietly and asked.
Just one glance made the head of Zhou stay silent, break out in a cold sweat, and not dare to say another word.
"Little guy, you have become my apprentice. I can't guarantee anything else, but at least I will teach you everything I have learned in my life."
Uncle Jiu looked at Xu Taiping with a smile at this time.
These words once again made the hearts of all the peak masters tremble.
The four words "Teaching each other with all the money you have" would be fine if it were said by others, but when it comes from Uncle Jiu's mouth, its weight is enough to make these seven long-famous peak masters feel envious.
Who is Uncle Jiu?
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, he is just an extremely senior senior member of the sect.
But in the eyes of these seven people, Uncle Ninth was more than just his seniority.
Uncle Jiu, named Jianjiu and Daoxuan, was the only person among the nine immortal mansions in this world who dared to fight against the Demon Lord and seriously injured him.
Even though that was what Uncle Jiu did when he was young.
But the seven people who had witnessed this scene with their own eyes still believed that the sword in Uncle Jiu's sheath could still kill demons.
So one can imagine how heavy the meaning of Uncle Jiu's words "give everything to others" means.
Seeing this, all seven people took a step back and stopped talking.
In front of Uncle Jiu, they had no chance of winning.
Seeing the Master of the Seven Peaks retreating on his own initiative, the uproar in the audience suddenly stopped, and everyone's eyes turned to Xu Taiping again.
Including Uncle Nine.
Including Zhao Linglong in the Yunlou stands.
In fact, Zhao Linglong, like the seven peak leaders, felt that it was obvious who Xu Taiping would choose after Uncle Ninth came out, but she still had some hope in her heart.
"Um……"
Xu Taiping was indeed in a dilemma at this time.
But what he was troubled about was not how to choose, but how to reject Uncle Jiu.
That's right, for him, the answer to which peak to go to and who to worship as his teacher was already known when he went up the mountain.
"Uncle Master, I can stand here today thanks to Senior Brother Qingxiao and Senior Sister Linglong from Qifeng who led me up the mountain. Three years ago, I made an agreement with Senior Brother Qingxiao and Senior Sister Linglong from Qifeng, and I would Three years later, he became an official disciple through the Seven Peaks selection and climbed to the Seventh Peak.”
After Xu Taiping thought about it carefully, he solemnly replied to Uncle Jiu.
As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
No one expected that Xu Taiping would reject Uncle Jiu.
After Zhao Linglong heard this, she froze in disbelief, and then confirmed to Senior Sister Zi Yan beside her with a somewhat numb expression:
"Senior Sister Zi Yan, did I hear you correctly?"
Xu Ziyan was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile and said:
"You heard it right, Taiping said he was going to your Qifeng."
Qing Xiao, who was standing next to Xu Taiping, was also surprised at first, but then he reminded Xu Taiping in a low voice: "Taiping, don't be stupid, my uncle is willing to accept you as his disciple. This is What a great opportunity!”
Unlike Zhao Linglong, he is very aware of the importance of the successor of Uncle Ninth.
"I……"
"Hahaha!……"
Xu Taiping was about to explain to Qing Xiao, but was interrupted by a hearty laugh from Uncle Jiu.
"Little guy, this is just a test I gave you. Do you really think that I, Lu Daoxuan, want to accept a bone like you as my disciple?"
Uncle Jiu glared at Xu Taiping with an expression that said, "You think so", and then continued:
"However, your performance is quite good. You have not lost your true heart due to external temptations. From now on, you can practice well in Qifeng."
As he spoke, he patted Xu Taiping on the shoulder, then turned around and left.
But when he turned around, he suddenly bared his teeth and whispered in a voice that he could only hear:
"You stinky boy, you stinky boy, I finally tried to hide my face to ask for help, but you dare to refuse me? No, no, I can't disgrace this person. You wait, I must let you come and beg me to accept you as my disciple. !”
