Chapter 648: What is the identity of our headmaster’s second wife?
"I see that you are all practicing fire-based Taoism, so I will introduce you to one of my teachers. If he is willing to accept you, you will become my junior brothers and sisters in the future." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"How can this be possible? You are flattering us too much!" Shi Mian and his wife were shocked when they heard this.
"You don't have to underestimate yourselves. You are not lacking in talent, your cultivation is not low, and you and your wife have faced life-and-death dangers without leaving each other and your love is deep. My teacher is a man who values friendship the most, and he accepted me as his student because of this. Besides, we have a debt of gratitude to each other, and I can't let you start from being outer disciples step by step. I am willing, but she is not!" Qin Ziling said, pointing at Yin Ranyue with a smile.
"Thank you, sir, and thank you, madam!" Upon hearing this, Shi Mian and his wife expressed their gratitude repeatedly.
Qin Ziling smiled, then told Long Wu to invite Lai Yi Nuan over.
Qin Ziling has three teachers. Zuo Le is mainly in charge of the Internal Affairs Hall, Jian Bailou is in charge of the School Hall, and Lai Yinuan is in charge of the Criminal Hall.
Soon, Lai Yiran arrived at the Wuji Palace.
Lai Yinuan is now a second-grade true immortal.
"Meet the headmaster and the second lady."
Because there were outsiders present, Lai Yi Nuan didn't want to be impolite, so he bowed after entering the hall.
"Thank you for your courtesy, teacher. Please take a seat." Qin Ziling and Yin Ranyue quickly returned the greeting and humbly invited him to take a seat.
After the due courtesy, Lai Yinuan no longer needed to be polite and sat down as he was told.
After Qin Ziling and Lai Yi Nuan sat down, he called Shi Mian and his wife up and said, "Teacher, these two are Shi Mian and Yu Juan that I mentioned to you. They have come from afar to seek refuge with me. They both practice fire-based Taoism. Do you think it would be okay for them to become your disciples?"
"So you are Shi Mian and Yu Juan!" Lai Yinuan did not answer Qin Ziling immediately, but looked at Shi Mian and his wife intently.
Shi Mian and his wife hurried forward to pay their respects.
"That's right!" Lai Yi Nuan nodded quickly and said, "In fact, the headmaster mentioned you to me after he came back. This time, the headmaster and the second wife were able to reunite thanks to you. I also heard that you two have been inseparable. How about this, you two become my disciples."
“Greetings, Master!” Upon hearing this, Shi Mian and his wife were overjoyed and immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"Get up." Lai Yinuan helped Shi Mian and his wife up.
"Congratulations, teacher!" Qin Ziling and Yin Ranyue hurried forward to congratulate.
After the congratulations, Qin Ziling, as the head teacher, generously gave a lot of gifts.
There are immortal infant-level Wuchen immortal pills, mid-grade immortal artifacts, top-grade immortal stones, and some miscellaneous immortal pills.
Anyway, every gift they received was something that Shi Mian and his wife would never have dared to hope for in the past, and they were so scared that they were a little hesitant to accept them.
"Take it. Your master brother has many good things, so this is not a big deal. Besides, I haven't accepted any disciples for a long time. You have to grow up as soon as possible, otherwise you will not be able to compare with others." Lai Yinuan said bluntly upon seeing this.
As he spoke, Lai Yinuan also gave Qin Ziling a meaningful look.
Qin Ziling couldn't help but laugh and cry when he saw this.
He naturally knew that Mr. Lai's words were directed at Jian Bailou.
Feng Ziluo is Jian Bailou's direct disciple. Now he is one of the leaders of the military hall and is very powerful. Not only that, Qin Ziling's chief disciple Zuo Cong also has a deep relationship with Jian Bailou and can be considered a direct disciple.
So when Lai Yinuan and Jian Bailou got together, given Jian Bailou's personality, he had to be very "modest" in mentioning his disciples and grandchildren.
Lai Yi Nuan must have felt a little jealous every time she was compared to others, but there was nothing she could do.
It's his fault that he didn't receive such an outstanding disciple as Feng Ziluo, and of course Zuo Cong.
"Teacher is right, right. Don't be polite to me. Here are two 'Dragon Blood Creation Pills'. After you absorb and refine the 'Dustless Immortal Pills' I gave you, you can take these 'Dragon Blood Creation Pills'. With your foundation, it is estimated that you will be able to overcome the heavenly tribulation and become a true immortal in a year or so.
And with the help of this "Dragon Blood Creation Pill", you will be able to comprehend the Heavenly Dao more easily before you become a fourth-grade True Immortal." Qin Ziling secretly felt at a loss for words, but since the teacher had already spoken, what else could he say? He had no choice but to take out two more "Dragon Blood Creation Pills" and stuff them into Shi Mian and his wife's mouth.
Fortunately, just as Lai Yi Nuan said, he did have a lot of good things on hand recently, so he wouldn't feel bad if he gave him two more "Dragon Blood Creation Pills".
When they heard that by taking this pill, one could overcome the heavenly tribulation and become a true immortal in a year or two, and that before becoming a fourth-grade true immortal, one could also comprehend the way of heaven more easily, Shi Mian and his wife were completely shocked on the spot. They held the pill bottle that Qin Ziling stuffed in their hands with shaking hands, and had no idea what to do.
They really didn't dare to accept such an expensive gift!
"Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Why don't you thank your head brother for the gift!" Upon seeing this, Lai Yinuan stroked his goatee with satisfaction, then yelled at Shi Mian and his wife.
The disciples of Wuji Sect, especially the veteran disciples, have been able to make such rapid breakthroughs in recent years, and even catch up with the earth immortals who came to join them later and were originally at a higher level than them. In addition to the fact that these veteran disciples have good talents, foundations, and willpower, the biggest reason is that they have taken the "Dragon Blood Creation Pill" and enough "Wuchen Immortal Pill" and "Wuchen Yuan Pill".
“Master, this, this, this is not…” Shi Mian and his wife were relatively honest and kind , and said with a guilty conscience.
"You don't have to refuse. I was planning to give you this 'Dragon Blood Creation Pill' when the time was right. Now I'm just giving it to you in advance." Qin Ziling interrupted with a smile.
Only then did Shi Mian and his wife nervously put away the "Dragon Blood Creation Pill".
"I will hold a disciple-recruiting ceremony at the Elders' Mansion tomorrow. You all come." Seeing Shi Mian and his wife put away the "Dragon Blood Creation Pill", Lai Yiranuan said to Qin Ziling and Yin Ranyue.
"Of course. Since the teacher is accepting disciples, how can we not go?" Qin Ziling and Yin Ranyue said with a smile.
Lai Yinuan laughed, then took Shi Mian and his wife out of the Wuji Palace.
"Master, I have taken so many precious things from the head teacher all at once. I feel like I am asking for repayment for something in return. In fact, it was the head teacher who saved us two disciples first. If it weren't for him, not only would we have lost our lives long ago, but Yu Juan would have suffered great humiliation before his death." On the way back to the Elders' Mansion with Lai Yi Nuan, Shi Mian thought of the things collected in the storage ring and felt uneasy.
"I am very pleased that you have this idea. But you don't have to feel too psychologically burdened. Just practice well in the future and contribute more to the master and Wuji Sect." Lai Yi Nuan said.
"Of course! The master has done us a great favor, and we will certainly go through fire and water for him without hesitation." Shi Mian and his wife said seriously when they heard this.
"You two were able to stay together and never abandon each other before death. I believe you will be the same towards the master and Wuji Sect." Lai Yi Nuan nodded.
Shi Mian and his wife accepted Lai Yi Nuan's comment calmly, and silently followed Lai Yi Nuan to land at the Elders' Mansion.
"Master, what is the identity of our headmaster's second wife? Why would the head master be with her..." Yu Juan was a woman after all, and she was more curious. After entering the Elders' Mansion, she couldn't help but ask.
"Logically speaking, their relationship as husband and wife should be kept secret, and very few people in the sect know about it. But you are my disciples and junior brothers of the master, so there is nothing to hide from you. But you must not spread this matter." Lai Yi Nuan said.
"Then we'd better not know." The two were shocked when they heard this and waved their hands quickly.
"It's okay. You have me as your master, and you will soon be able to break through and become a true immortal, and be considered the core disciple of Wuji Sect. Moreover, since the headmaster has stated their relationship in front of you and told you the name of the second wife, it is obvious that he has no intention of hiding it from you." Lai Yi Nuan waved his hand and said.
"Is the Second Madam very famous?" Yu Juan was a woman with a sharp mind, and she asked immediately after hearing the words.
"She isn't very famous now, but she will be very famous soon, because she is the new leader of Xuanting Peak of Jiuxuan Sect!" Lai Yinuan said with a smile.
"Ah!" Shi Mian and his wife screamed in surprise when they heard the words. Their mouths were wide open for a long time and their heads were rumbling.
Back then, they risked their lives to enter the Fire Abyss Forbidden Land in search of a thousand-year-old red-flame fire silkworm, all for the purpose of becoming disciples of the Jiuxuan Sect, and only outer disciples at that.
As a result, the wife of their current head teacher is actually the master of Xuanting Peak!
In front of the master of Xuanting Peak, what are outer disciples? Even the true disciples are far from being good enough!
And between the outer disciples and the true disciples there are inner disciples!
