Chapter 596

Seeing Lu Lihong's reaction, Vice Hall Master Xu was not surprised and whispered, "What's wrong?

This is just the first thing and you're already making excuses. Then, what you said just now, can this old man treat it as a fart? "

Lu Lihong's face turned green and red as he said awkwardly, "But … the rules of the Incense Order …"

"Bullshit rules. According to the rules, why would an outer disciple like you stay in my White Mountain Peak and obediently be a disciple of the Grass Division?

But the reality is, aren't you still carefree in the Outer Sect and working hard to enter the Inner Sect? "

"This …" Lu Lihong's face turned pale as he sat back in his chair in a daze.

Seeing this, Vice Hall Master Xu struck while the iron was hot and said, "Everyone thinks that you're a person with good fortune. Of course, this is true. Others enter the Youlan Grand Canyon to pick herbs that are decades old. You, on the other hand, pick ginseng that is hundreds of years old. Everyone says that you're a genius. En, this old man doesn't deny that you're really a genius. Just by relying on the Inner Sect's Cultivation Method, you were able to cultivate to a very high level.

Unfortunately, how could the threshold of an Inner Sect disciple be so easy to cross?

If it was easy, then there's no need to talk about others. Even Chen Fengxiao and Wu Zhouxu were not much worse than you. How could they fail?

I don't need to say these words anymore. "

Lu Lihong's face was now ashen. In this short period of time, the expression on his face changed very quickly. It could be seen that deep in his heart, there were a lot of emotions.

Vice Hall Master Xu squinted his eyes and said, "As long as there are people, there will be Jianghu. Although the Incense Order is a paradise, it is not a pure land. Don't forget, you yourself are an example. If I hadn't warned Vice Hall Master Peng in advance to be merciful, how could you have passed the Outer Sect's test so easily?

Hehe, I know you were not convinced at that time, and you also spent a lot of effort to pass the assessment. But later on, when you entered the outer sect, did you realize that the martial arts of those senior brothers who assessed you back then was much higher than yours? "

Lu Lihong's face was slightly bloodshot. He said in a hoarse voice, "I know. At that time, Vice Hall Master Peng had already explained it to me. Those senior brothers didn't say anything."

"Heh heh, that's true. Our Fragrant Order has strict rules. Occasionally doing such a thing would make people tremble with fear. Of course, it's also because you've worked hard and your martial arts are really good. That's why others can't see through you. All these years, those senior brothers who tested you didn't cause you any trouble, did they?"

"No, everything seems to be real. If Vice Hall Master Peng had not pointed it out, I wouldn't have known that it was Vice Hall Master Xu's grace."

Then, Vice Hall Master Xu said, "Do you know why I chose you back then?"

"I don't know. I've always wanted to ask. Let's not talk about the others. Chen Fengxiao and Wu Zhouxu are both good at martial arts. They are stronger than me. Why didn't you choose them?"

"It's very simple. Because you took out the hundred-year-old ginseng and received the Internal Strength cultivation method from the Inner Sect. If you took the Internal Strength cultivation method from the Inner Sect and passed the test of the Outer Sect and became an Outer Sect disciple, even if others felt that your martial arts were a little weak or doubted the process of the test, wouldn't they have to consider the influence of the Inner Sect?

Besides, even if the people in the Inner Sect knew about it, wouldn't your hundred-year-old ginseng be enough to protect you? "

"You!"

Lu Lihong was a little angry. He struggled and said, "But … if you didn't intervene … I could still … enter the Outer Sect after a few more years of practice …"

"Heh heh …" Vice Hall Master Xu chuckled and said, "Well, let me ask you first. You've practiced in the Wuming Hall for so many years. Why do you still feel that you can't pass the test of the Outer Sect?"

"The Wuming Hall only takes care of its own disciples since childhood. They don't care about me, a disciple who joined halfway. They treat me unfairly. How can I be better than them?"

"Of course, there is unfairness. But can you deny that the Wuming Hall didn't give you any guidance when you practiced your Internal Strength and other martial arts?"

"This …" Lu Lihong was a little tongue-tied. After thinking for a while, he said frankly, "They didn't. If I had any questions, Senior Brother Chuan Gong would tell me everything he knew."

Vice Hall Master Xu clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Although I can't give you all the fairness, in terms of martial arts, you are not worse than other disciples in the Wuming Hall."

"This …" Lu Lihong really didn't expect that Vice Hall Master Xu would take care of him when he practiced in the Wuming Hall. Could it be true?

Vice Hall Master Xu ignored Lu Lihong and continued, "Since you have practiced in the Wuming Hall for so many years, your martial arts cultivation is just so-so. What if you didn't join the Outer Sect and just stayed in the Pill-Expanding Hall?

Are you sure you can pass the Outer Sect Test and enter the Wuming Hall? "

"This …" Lu Lihong was speechless again. It was true. After all, the Outer Sect Test was complicated. Not only did the Wuming Hall test the disciples' martial arts, but there were also some strange places to test their temperament and aptitude. If he hadn't been warned by some Outer Sect disciples in advance, he wouldn't be sure that he could pass the test even now.

Therefore, Lu Lihong had to say in a low voice, "If so, I have to thank Vice Hall Master Xu for giving me a fair environment to practice martial arts."

"Well, good."

Vice Hall Master Xu was very satisfied and said with a smile, "In fact, I chose you because you have these very coincidental conditions. What I value more is your character of being grateful.

Do you still remember the conflict between you and Chen Fengxiao? "

"I remember. I just couldn't stand Chen Fengxiao teaching the disciples of the Rejuvenation Valley a lesson. That's why I had a conflict with him."

"Well, that's right. The other disciples of the Rejuvenation Valley avoided Chen Fengxiao. Only you stood up. Although you didn't fight, it's enough to show that you are grateful to the Rejuvenation Valley. You are a rare good boy."

"I don't dare. I was young and frivolous. If Vice Hall Master Xu didn't happen to pass by, I would have been beaten up by Chen Fengxiao."

"Hahaha, isn't this fate between you and me?

If I didn't know you, how could I be an Outer Sect disciple today? "

"Alas ~"

"Nephew, you don't have to sigh. Think about it. With Chen Fengxiao's fiery temper and ungrateful character, how could I let him enter the Outer Sect?

Maybe after he enters the Outer Sect today, he will forget about me tomorrow. Maybe he will even make mistakes for me. Although I'm not afraid of this, it's still troublesome! "

"Actually, Senior Brother Chen is also a hot-blooded man …"

Vice Hall Master Xu waved his hand: "What hot-blooded man, it's all nonsense. What I want is a disciple who is loyal to me, not someone like him. There are plenty of people like him in the Pill Tower Hall.

As for Wu Zhouxu, with his image, he can only stay on Tianmu Peak and face off against Chen Fengxiao. If he is sent to Wuming Hall, I will lose face for no reason! "

Lu Lihong was dumbfounded. He didn't know if he should be thankful for his good looks or blame his good looks. Although Wu Zhouxu wasn't tall, his looks were average. Looking at him standing on Tian Mu Peak, his leadership skills weren't bad either. But all of this was nothing in the eyes of Vice Hall Master Xu. Just because his image wasn't good, his future was ruined. How sad!

"I've already answered your question. I think you know the pros and cons. My request just now isn't too complicated. Have you thought about it?"

Hearing Vice Hall Master Xu's questioning, Lu Lihong still hesitated. "Vice Hall Master Xu, if you have any orders, I won't dare to slack off. But we will spread the rules of the Incense Sect …"

Before Lu Lihong finished, Vice Hall Master Xu waved his hand. "Rules?

After talking for so long, you're still thinking about that broken rule. This old man can guarantee that there's absolutely no problem with this matter. Why don't you think about it? Even if you complete this matter, who would know that it was you who did it?

Are you the head disciple of Wuming Hall or an Inner Sect disciple? "

"Don't forget that you are now under my care. In the future, I don't need to use any tricks. I only need to make it clear to Vice Hall Master Peng so that he will no longer treat you differently. I don't need to tell you about your situation. I believe you know it yourself."

After he finished speaking, he took out a jade bottle from his bosom and placed it on the table, saying, "This is a Jade Rejuvenation Pill. Consider it your reward for helping me for the first time. In the future, whenever this old man has something to trouble you with, I will give you an appropriate reward according to the difficulty of the matter. This Jade Rejuvenation Pill is just a new pill that this old man can take out. I believe that nephew already has an idea of how many pills there are in the Inner Sect. This old man has all of these pills. If you help this old man in the future, I will not treat you unfairly."

Hearing Deputy Hall Chief Xu's words, Lu Lihong looked at the jade bottle on the table with greedy eyes. He closed his eyes and pondered for a long time. Then, he secretly gritted his teeth, "What this old man wants to do is not too difficult. He even wants to give me a Jade Elixir as a reward. He must be testing me. But if I take this as an example, I will definitely be rewarded handsomely if I work for him in the future. Forget it, forget it. A man's ambition is limited by his poverty. I still have to live under his roof.

After thinking about it, he lowered his head and said, "Vice Hall Master Xu is so generous and has treated me so well. How can I not agree?"

"Good, good. That's good."

As he said that, he waved his hand and the jade bottle floated to Lu Lihong. Seeing this, Lu Lihong's eyes revealed a look of admiration. This kind of pure internal strength was not something that he could compete with.

Lu Lihong took the jade bottle and said, "I don't deserve it. Vice Hall Master Xu, this matter hasn't been settled yet. I don't deserve this pill."

Vice Hall Master Xu waved his hand in a magnanimous manner and said, "It's fine. I'm not worried about you. Just take it. I believe you can handle it well."

"Alright, thank you for your trust, Vice Hall Master Xu. I can only accept it, but …"

Vice Hall Master Xu smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about anything else. I will take care of it. Once you do it, I will naturally know."

Lu Lihong nodded and smiled apologetically. "I understand. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

"Alright, go ahead. Go and prepare for the trial."

Lu Lihong was overjoyed …
