Chapter 2240 - 2243: Chief Elder's Disciple?

As the elder walked slowly into the great hall, everyone's gaze instantly focused on him.

The twelve elders seated above, some frowned slightly with displeasure.

Some showed a hint of joy.

However, Mo Ziyang's expression was quite unpleasant at this moment.

Because the newcomer was Wang Tianqing, one of the three Great Elders of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, and even ranked first among all the elders in the sect!

Ranked before Mo Ziyang!

Qin Tian watched this elder, with long hair, a mix of black and white, and a face full of stubble, as he approached gracefully.

He also saw the change in expressions among the other elders.

Without a doubt, the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect seemed far from peaceful on the surface.

Just from the elders' eyes and expressions, Qin Tian could instantly discern their open and hidden conflicts!

"Elder Wang, hehe, weren't you in seclusion? Why have you come out?" Mo Ziyang asked.

"Indeed, didn't you suffer severe internal injuries before, Elder Wang? Coming out prematurely might significantly impact your health."

"Oh, Elder Wang, did you come out at this moment, perhaps also for the Inner Sect disciple selection?"

The elders siding with Mo Ziyang naturally spoke in his defense.

Clearly, this Mo Ziyang and Wang Tianqing didn't get along well.

"Since Elder Wang is here, may I ask, is this young man at the Flying Immortal Realm's Peak your chosen one?"

"Hehe, Elder Wang, as the honorary chief elder of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, you actually chose a disciple at the Flying Immortal Realm's Peak. Are you giving up on yourself?"

"Hmph..."

The group immediately mocked as soon as Wang Tianqing entered the hall.

Wang Tianqing ignored them, his gaze fixed entirely on Qin Tian.

Qin Tian looked back at him and saw a touch of depth in Wang Tianqing's eyes; it seemed he was considering something.

"You, come with me. From now on, you are my disciple," Wang Tianqing suddenly said, leaving Qin Tian momentarily stunned.

Not only Qin Tian was stunned.

Even Mo Ziyang and the others in the hall were all stunned!

Despite his injuries and loss of power in the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, Wang Tianqing was still highly respected and influential in the sect!

Even among the Seven Great Immortal Sects, Wang Tianqing was a well-known figure.

He had taken many disciples before, but in recent years, he hardly accepted any, especially after being injured and humiliated.

Why did he suddenly come out this time to accept this ordinary individual as a disciple?

The Silver Token in Qin Tian's hand was given by Wang Tianqing?

Why did he favor him?

Everyone was extremely shocked inside.

They truly couldn't understand why Wang Tianqing, who was nearly retired and reclusive from the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, suddenly stepped forward to take on a disciple.

"What, I take you as a disciple, and you have no words of gratitude? Boy, am I fit to be your master?"

Seeing Qin Tian's inaction, Wang Tianqing laughed.

Qin Tian came to his senses and hurriedly paid respects: "Disciple Qin Tian, thank you, Master! I will not disappoint your reputation in the future!"

"Get up, hahaha, reputation? Your master doesn't have much reputation."

Wang Tianqing helped Qin Tian up.

Mo Ziyang, sitting above, sneered: "Elder Wang, you actually gave him your Silver Token? Hmph, I didn't realize, being secluded, you still secretly contacted people outside..."

Wang Tianqing glared at Mo Ziyang: "Elder Mo, my affairs aren't for you to meddle in."

With these words, Mo Ziyang's expression instantly stiffened.

Then, Wang Tianqing took out a Silver Token from his possession: "My Silver Token is here. Hmph, I originally came just to observe you taking disciples, but I arrived late, and you guys finished selecting disciples, leaving only him... hehe, since you all rejected him, then I, Wang Tianqing, will accept him. It's rare for me to come out, meeting him is fate."

Finishing his sentence, Wang Tianqing gave Qin Tian a look and said: "Let's go."

"Take care, Elder Wang."

As Wang Tianqing left, several elders respectfully bade farewell.

Mo Ziyang naturally remained seated, his face filled with more surprise and doubt.

Watching Qin Tian and Wang Tianqing strutting out together, Mo Ziyang was curious, wondering what this lunatic was up to?

Qin Tian followed Wang Tianqing out.

Walking ahead, Wang Tianqing said nothing.

Following behind, Qin Tian was speculating internally.

This Elder Wang Tianqing, appearing to hold a high status in the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, why did he choose me as a disciple?

The reasonable explanation might be a plan from Shenyue.

However, Wang Tianqing's Silver Token is still with him, so where did my Silver Token come from?

"Master, why did you choose me?"

Filled with doubt, Qin Tian asked nonetheless.

"Hehe, fate." Wang Tianqing didn't wish to say much.

Qin Tian curiously asked: "Did someone suggest you choose me?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Tianqing stopped and turned to look at Qin Tian, smiling: "Who? Who would make me choose you? I doubt anyone in the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect can force me to do anything, right?"

"Ah?"

Qin Tian was stunned; wasn't he sent by Shenyue to select him?

"Why are you surprised?"

Wang Tianqing looked at Qin Tian and said: "While your cultivation isn't high, I see you have good potential."

"For over a decade, I, Wang Tianqing, haven't accepted any disciples. Now accepting you as my disciple, an Inner Sect disciple, there will surely be countless eyes on you, watching me as well."

He smiled at Qin Tian: "Being a disciple of the chief elder carries immense pressure. Can you bear it?"

"I can."

Qin Tian replied without hesitation.

"That's good. My cultivation grounds are over at Wang Tianqing's Blessed Land. You're not formally a disciple yet, so you can't go there. Rest well, prepare for hard cultivation. After the disciple selection tomorrow, come see me again."

After saying this, Wang Tianqing left directly.

Qin Tian was stunned for half a day before replying "Yes."

Only after Wang Tianqing left did Qin Tian finally head down the mountain, full of doubts.

"Qin Tian?!"

As he was about to exit the Inner Sect, unexpectedly a familiar voice called out to him.

Looking back, Qin Tian saw that it was Shenyue, dressed in fine robes!

Seeing Shenyue reveal himself, Qin Tian was overjoyed and hurriedly went over, saying: "Mr. Shenyue, you finally appeared. I'm completely confused right now; I have so many questions to ask you."

Seeing Qin Tian approach, Shenyue was cautious, looking around, saying: "Keep your voice down; come with me."
