"Uh… I guess I was right!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.
He hopped down from the platform, returned the token, and respectfully bowed to Elder Kurong.
"Do you know who I am?" Elder Kurong took the initiative to ask Ye Liuyun.
"I do. You are Elder Kurong!" Ye Liuyun answered.
"You seed to have thoroughly investigated the Northsky Sect before coming here!" Elder Kurong started to probe.
Ye Liuyun sensed that Elder Kurong was probably suspicious of him after hearing these statents.
"I don't need to investigate for it. The na of the elders is known to all!" Instead of answering Elder Kurong's probe, Ye Liuyun changed the topic.
"I have seen your performance in the secret realm. How did you find those treasures?" Elder Kurong continued to probe.
"Inspecting with Divine Soul, then based on experience and so details, reacted according to the situation…" Ye Liuyun explained his prepared speech, which was indeed flawlessly believable.
Elder Kurong then asked Ye Liuyun about his background and identity.
The more Ye Liuyun's responses seed perfect, the more suspicious Elder Kurong was.
"With such a strong ability, why did you co to Northsky Sect?" Elder Kurong relentlessly asked.
"Compared to others at my level, my ability is stronger. I am not a match for you, at least! My goal in coming to Northsky Sect is to level up my strength!" Said Ye Liuyun with composure.
Elder Kurong shook his head, still not trusting Ye Liuyun. He felt that Ye Liuyun's explanation were just too perfect.
In the end, he decided to probe Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul, to confirm his true motive.
"I still found it hard to believe what you're saying because it's too perfect. There's only one way for to trust you, and that's soul searching!"
"But don't worry. Your Divine Soul is quite strong. If you cooperate with , and being careful, it won't do any harm to you."
"If you're found to be what you claid, I will compensate you. All these will be for you!" Elder Kurong said as he tossed an Interspatial Ring to Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun scanned it with his Divine Sense and found it was packed full of resources for cultivating the Divine Soul.
"Isn't there any other way to do it?" Ye Liuyun asked.
He was discreetly thinking about whether to strike Elder Kurong while he had the chance.
Elder Kurong shook his head, "I'm afraid there's no other way, nor do I have ti to always keep an eye on you."
Ye Liuyun pretended to ponder before he replied, "Alright, I agree!"
He decided to seize this chance when no one else was around to strike Elder Kurong.
This was an opportunity delivered right to him, rare indeed!
After hearing Ye Liuyun's agreent, Elder Kurong's tone eased, "I hope you can understand and not bla us! Currently, Northsky Sect is facing internal and external troubles. You are the perfect disciple in everyone's eyes, so I have to be extra cautious."
"I understand!" Ye Liuyun courteously replied, "I won't bla you. I just hope you can be as careful as possible when you do the soul searching!"
"I promise," Elder Kurong nodded in satisfaction and released his Divine Soul, which streaked into Ye Liuyun's Ocean of Consciousness.
He was also aware of Ye Liuyun's powerful Divine Soul, so he didn't dare to take it lightly. He released both his Divine Souls together.
But as soon as his Divine Souls rushed into Ye Liuyun's Ocean of Consciousness, it was instantly trapped by the golden ray of Ye Liuyun's Universal God Token and stamped with the Slaving Seal.
Both of Ye Liuyun's Divine Souls imdiately rushed into his Ocean of Consciousness. Just in case he had a backup divine soul like the Great Expert, Jiang Yuan.
However, Ye Liuyun overestimated him. Elder Kurong was not as cunning as Jiang Yuan and had only two divine souls, both of which Ye Liuyun had imprinted with the Slaving Seal.
Only then did Ye Liuyun's divine soul return to his Ocean of Consciousness at ease and began to search Elder Kurong's soul.
Only then did he know that Northsky Sect is indeed in a state of internal and external troubles.
The external trouble he referred to included not just his Dark Legion but also major powers like the Fairy Clan, who relentlessly pursued the Northsky Sect.
The internal trouble referred to the first sacred disciple had been monopolizing the disciples of the sect for the Alliance of rchants. He tried to turn the Northsky Sect into a pawn for the Alliance of rchants.
Typically, Elder Kurong stayed out of sect business. Besides Yao Donglai, there was a vice-sect leader responsible for external affairs nad Lu Yi, who was in the primary of the eighth level and had a clone of the sa tier.
There were two powerful elders in Northsky Sect, a man, Qiao Yun, and a woman, Bai Feng. Both were in the interdiate eighth level. They were considered the martial pillars of the Northsky Sect.
Besides Yao Donglai, other important elders are Jin Qingsong and Wu Kun. As for the rest of them, Ye Liuyun did not need to control them.
Elder Kurong's unique thods were inappropriate for Ye Liuyun to learn about. It was only an easily comprehensible Yin-Yang cycle fundantal principle.
After Ye Liuyun returned Elder Kurong's divine soul, he found that he had suicidal thoughts.
"You can't die without my consent!" Ye Liuyun coldly ordered Elder Kurong.
"I can't bear to see Northsky Sect fall into the hands of outsiders, let alone ruin Northsky Sect because of !" Elder Kurong replied honestly.
"Just live well! I will not harm Northsky Sect, on the contrary, I plan to make Northsky Sect better!" Ye Liuyun told Elder Kurong.
Elder Kurong was rather surprised. Because he had seen Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul and knew that it was Ye Liuyun.
He couldn't understand what Ye Liuyun ant by that.
"I ca to Northsky Sect mostly for self-protection. But the Dark Legion and Northsky Sect do not necessarily have to be in opposition. They can also cooperate deeply. You have to live because Northsky Sect needs you. You can die after you've confird that I intended to harm the Northsky Sect!"
Ye Liuyun didn't bother to explain in detail, he just walked out of the cave, leaving him to figure out his aning slowly.
Even if he refused to agree, Elder Kurong wouldn't be able to die.
At this mont, Mao Hongyin had already arrived at the cave's entrance to fetch Ye Liuyun.
"Congratulations on passing the test and becoming an inner disciple of the Northsky Sect. Let's go and handle the formalities, and verify your identity!"
Mao Hongyin was excited to et Ye Liuyun. After all, he had witnessed the entire test of this promising disciple.
He knew the Northsky Sect particularly needed an excellent disciple who could withstand the first sacred disciple's blackmail.
Mao Hongyin led Ye Liuyun to the registration office to complete the procedures. There, he was given the entrance and exit token of the inner door. He was then told to change into the clothing of an inner door disciple and brought to the Grand hall.
He had already used a soul search to find out who the elders were in the hall. So he decided to choose Jin Qingsong. Jin Qingsong was an eight-level alchemist, a level higher than Lin Luoyi.
This way, he not only had a higher chance to et more people but also learned more alchemy techniques.
Even though Bai Feng and Qiao Yun were in the hall as well, both of them were martial arts fanatics and didn't mingle with outsiders. It wouldn't et Ye Liuyun's objectives.
But since he was being so sought after, Ye Liuyun intended to make the best deal out of his incoming teacher, Jin Qingsong
