Vol.2-Chapter 181 – News About Bo Re

Hearing Jian Wuxian’s words, Zhao Jiuge’s expression became tense. He quickly followed his teacher and soon arrived before the portrait of the ancestor.

“Kneel,” Jian Wuxian commanded. He looked at Zhao Jiuge with a serious expression. historical

Zhao Jiuge looked at the giant portrait. The person in the portrait was a scholarly-looking man. He looked ordinary but had an extraordinary aura while he gazed into the distance. Zhao Jiuge knelt down before the portrait.

“Kowtow three times. From now on, you are my disciple. From now on, your every action will reflect the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect. You can no longer act carelessly. Entering my branch means you will face much harsher requirements than others. This is the ancestor of our sect, and he can be considered the teacher of our branch.”

Jian Wuxian's voice was serious. “I don’t have too many rules. After you kowtow, you will become part of the family. I’ll let you meet your senior brothers and sisters, then tomorrow I’ll begin properly teaching you.”

Jian Wuxian had a complicated expression, like he had many things he wanted to say. Wu Tianshan didn’t follow and watched from the door. It seemed the process had become a lot simpler compared to before.

After seeing Zhao Jiuge respectfully kowtow three times, Jian Wuxian’s gaze became more gentle. He was very satisfied with his youngest disciple. After all, he had observed Zhao Jiuge for a long time. Although Zhao Jiuge’s talent was lacking, his heart and character were exellect. His observations of Zhao Jiuge and the result of the test the day before were proof of this.

Lacking talent was not bad; what was bad was a bad character. If one’s character was bad, what was the use in them being powerful?

“Get up,” Jian Wuxian said after he saw Zhao Jiuge finish kowtowing. His words were no longer as harsh as before.

Zhao Jiuge slowly got up. Initially, he felt fear, but now he was just nervous. However, just as he relaxed a little, a sense of danger shrouded his body.

Jian Wuxian suddenly moved and his spirit force surged, but his aura wasn’t violent. He grabbed Zhao Jiuge’s arm and then a drop of spirit force appeared. It was the same method Bai Zhanfeng had used, meaning he was at least at the Spirit Sea Realm.

This drop of spirit force suddenly entered Zhao Jiuge’s fingertip and sent pain up his arm. Then a few drops of essence blood flew out.

There was a flash of light and an ordinary jade bottle and a jade disc appeared before them.

Jian Wuxian wrapped his spirit force around the drops of essence blood and shot them toward the two items. The lights from the jade bottle and jade disc dimmed until they disappeared completely.

Zhao Jiuge burst out in cold sweat. He thought Jian Wuxian held ill intent, but after he saw the two items that appeared, he calmed down.

“Hold on to this jade plate. When you head out, I’ll be able to sense your position. As for this jade bottle, I’ll go to the Sword Pavilion and make a Life Lamp for you. All inner sect disciples have a Life Lamp made so we can know if a disciple is dead or not. Cultivation has always been the abnormal path. Although you are my disciple, I can’t completely shelter you while you grow. I hope I won’t see the day where your Life Lamp goes out.” He had seen too much death and had to put away his sentimental feelings. This made him think of his second disciple, Ceng Qingnu.

After the initial scare, Zhao Jiuge seriously nodded. “Disciple will remember.”

Jian Wuxian nodded and said, “That’s good. You have just entered the sect and have to learn too many things. After your fellow senior brothers and sisters arrive, I’ll introduce you. First, I’ll let your eldest senior sister explain things to you, then I’ll personally teach you the second layer of the Mysterious Heaven Sword Art.” Zhao Jiuge wondered who his eldest senior sister was.

“This, Teac.. Teacher, can I ask you something?” Zhao Jiuge secretly glanced at Jian Wuxian. He was still getting accustomed to being a disciple.

“If you have anything to say, just say it.” Jian Wuxian didn’t mind. After all, this was just the start; there were many things Zhao Jiuge had to adapt to.

“This.. Teacher, do you know which sect the Hundred Flower Sword Art belongs to?” Zhao Jiuge’s eyes were filled with expectation. He had waited for a long time for this day. He believed that with his teacher’s knowledge, his teacher would certainly know something. He was finally qualified to learn something new about that noble and cold woman. This was why he hadn’t asked any of the instructors before.

“Hundred Flower Sword Art? Why are you asking this? That is the sword art of the Hundred Flower Valley. Do you have some entanglement with the disciples of the Hundred Flower Valley?” Jian Wuxian was somewhat surprised. He didn’t expect his new disciple to ask something like this. The Hundred Flower Valley was also one of the seven holy lands and was not much weaker than the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect.

Hearing the name “Hundred Flower Valley,” Wu Tianshan became interested and walked over with a curious expression.

“No, I just want to find the whereabouts of someone I’ve met before.” Then Zhao Jiuge explained what happened, but he didn’t say that he had a one-sided love toward the person he had met.

“Bo Re? I have never heard about her. The Hundred Flower Valley only has female disciples, and there are so many. Even though your teacher is powerful, I can’t know them all.” Jian Wuxian then revealed a mischievous smile while he looked at Zhao Jiuge and continued, “You are my disciple now. If you like a female disciple, I can personally go match-make for you.”

Zhao Jiuge suddenly became shy, but he was very happy in his heart.

“Teacher, this matter is not so simple. This Bo Re is not ordinary—she is in the same generation as me and is the most talented among the Hundred Flower Valley disciples. She has no small prestige, and many talents of the younger generation all lover her. She is an ice-cold beauty. I say that Junior Brother here has his work cut out for him, but she is very beautiful.” Wu Tianshan fanned the flames on the side with a smile.

Jian Wuxian didn’t look like a teacher at all at this moment and smiled. “What’s difficult? Are you not my disciple? If you want something, you need to bravely reach for it. This is the same with cultivating the sword.”

“Hehe, Teacher, you still haven’t found anyone after all these years. I feel like you’re saying this to yourself.” Wu Tianshan poked at Jian Wuxian’s history.

Hearing this, Jian Wuxian’s expression suddenly changed and he scolded, “You little brat, you think your wings are tough now? Seems like you’re asking for a beating.”

Wu Tianshan quickly dodged, leaving only Zhao Jiuge standing there on the side with a silly smile. Zhao Jiuge felt a sense of satisfaction while looking at the different Jian Wuxian. Now not only did he have a teacher, but also some senior brothers and sisters. He just didn’t know who would come.

He no longer feared his teacher. Looking at his teacher’s angry expression, Zhao Jiuge felt a sense of warmth.

“Haha, Junior Brother, you’re not properly cultivating at your age. Instead, you’re already obsessing over a woman.” A sudden voice caused the three of them to look over.
