Sword cultivator, Zhou Hong.
The voice of the boy sounded a little hoarse.
Jun Changxiao raised his head.
It was a boy with upwards slanting eyebrows and sharp eyes, seeming about 13 or 14 in age. However, his face gave off a sense of vicissitude, which was obviously incompatible with his true age.
He donned a black robe, stained with soil.
He seed a little like a wandering prodigy, a hint of expertise.
Ma Yongning also had such traces left by ti.
A sabre user, a swordsman.
They both had this standard appearance.
Because they had been ti-tested in Jianghu, they had developed a personality of I wield my blade and laugh at the Heavens, a heroic spirit as great as two Kunlun Mountains.
Just imagine it.
A bright moon hung in the air, on the roof of the Ironbone Sects main hall.
On the left stood the recovered sabre user Ma Yongning, on the right stood Zhou Hong, holding the sword.
Perhaps the two would have the following conversation:
You are here.
Yes, I am here.
You should not have co here.
But, I have already co here.
Why did you co here?
I also do not know why, but I still ca here.
Take out your sword.
Take out your sabre.
Rock-paper-sword-sabre! [1]
This type of philosophical and impassive dialogue could only be displayed between two genuine cultivators of the blade.
Zhou Hongs eyes twinkled like sharp rays of a sword, making Jun Changxiao seem to hear the boy say I am here once more.
Since you are here, I shall receive you! Jun Changxiao filled out the na on the form, then stamped the seal.
Quick and simple, no wasted ink or ti.
This was the greatest respect for a swordsman!
Rumble (gu-long)!
Zhou Hongs stomach rumbled and he collapsed onto the table, weakly admitting, Hungry
How the fuck is this guy an expert? Jun Changxiao face-pald, dumbfounded. Qingyang, carry him to the dining hall.
Yes.
Li Qingyang walked over and picked Zhou Hong up with one arm, using the other to take his sword.
But just as he touched the sword, Zhou Hong suddenly burst out with strength, grasping the sword first. He solemnly stated, A sword cultivators blade never leaves his body.
Li Qingyang shook his head, dragging the boy into the sect.
Registration continued.
The fifth entrant was 17, looked average, and seed to have no special skills. However, his na was striking, as he was called Sima Zhongda.
Jun Changxiao joked, You certainly have a rival nad Zhuge Kongming. [2]
Zhuge Kongming? Sima Zhongda was bewildered.
Accepted.
After Jun Changxiao asked a few questions, he stamped the seal.
In his opinion, those with compound surnas like Ouyang, Murong, Dongfang, Lanxiang were all from great and respected families.
What was the standard Jun Changxiao used to accept disciples?
Spirit root and cultivation were not very important, as he only looked at the registrants gaze if he found the gaze to be acceptable, then he would accept the disciple into the sect wholeheartedly.
The system mocked, [Isnt it just because not enough people register, so the host cannot be picky?]
Jun Changxiao was disinclined to respond, saying, Next.
There was no sound.
Looking up, he discovered there was no one there only a total of five people had registered.
Hu-hu!
A cool breeze blew past, flooding the entrance with a bleak aura.
Hah
Jun Changxiao sighed to himself, picked up his chair and walked into the sect. His back seed a little lonely, like he was an old person late in life.
After the new disciples joined, the number of disciples increased from 148 to 153 and he obtained 5 contribution points.
Li Qingyang led them to pick up the sect uniforms, handed them the sect handbook, and so on.
Jun Changxiao cultivated in the training room for two hours, then arrived at the cell where the Drizzle Pavilion Master had been detained, unlocking the chains with a ka ka ka.
Has your stay been satisfying?
After walking in, he smiled like a gentleman.
The pavilion master said, Sect Head Jun, we reached an agreent about chatting, detaining seems a bit improper.
Jun Changxiao leaned against the door, clasping his hands. If you comply with sothing this lord wants, the Ironbone Sect will imdiately honor you as a guest.
The pavilion master twirled her hair, smiling, Its definitely nothing good.
This woman seed barely over twenty, still looking beautiful. Her physique was also pretty good; even her nonchalant movents were filled with seductiveness.
My senior disciple, if she was like her.
Jun Changxiao imdiately stopped that train of thought. That would be too scary!
Jun Changxiao said, What is the ladys fine na?
Li Luoqiu, the pavilion master answered.
Jun Changxiao said, Good na.
Li Luoqiu smiled as she asked, Sect Head Jun, that wouldnt be the matter you wanted to discuss?
Of course not, Jun Changxiao said. Pavilion Master Li, are you interested in becoming my subordinate and joining my Ironbone Sect?
Kekeke, Li Luoqiu covered her mouth as she chuckled, smiling beautiful enough for flowers to blossom.
Jun Changxiao said, Is it funny?
Li Luoqiu stopped laughing and said, Sect Head Jun, I, Li Luoqiu, am an assassin and will not join your so-called sect.
Why? Jun Changxiao asked.
Li Luoqiu answered, Would a bird used to freedom enjoy being caged?
Jun Changxiao shook his head. An assassins only partner is the darkness and does not dare appear in the open. Is that freedom?
Li Luoqiu lightly said, If you wish to recruit , you should not waste your words.
Jun Changxiao naturally did not give up. He said, Miss Li, this lord can exterminate the Spirit Spring Sect, does not fear the Holy Spring Sect, and has also welcod all those of your honorable sect here. Shouldnt our strength be clear?
Silent for a mont, Li Luoqiu eventually responded, Sect Head Jun is not simple.
Last night she had wondered how such an obscure sect to Jianghu had suddenly beco so domineering.
And this guy.
During the Hundred Sect Recruitnt, he had been ridian Opening stage five or six.
After several months, he entered the high levels of Martial Apprentice. Hed even defeated herself, which was inconceivable.
Jun Changxiao said, My Ironbone Sect has only just started and lacks virtuous and capable people. If Miss Li brings her subordinates to join, she will soday beco a founding elder of the major sect that dominates the continent!
Li Luoqius apricot eyes were wide.
If he had said sothing brave like dominates Qingyang Commandery, perhaps she would have believed him.
Dominate the continent? The best major sect? Saying sothing like that could only an two things: (1) he was joking or (2) he was insane.
Jun Changxiao was not joking and his brain was very normal.
He sincerely said, Miss Li, if you are willing to assist this lord, you will beco Drizzle Halls hall master.
Li Luoqiu teased, The Ironbone Sect even has hall masters?
Not before, but we do now. Jun Changxiao continued, Miss Li, if you join, you will be my Ironbone Sects first hall master. This will certainly go down in the annals of history, forever revered by the world!
Li Luoqiu:
Shua!
Jun Changxiao pulled out the Desert Eagle, spinning it around his finger. He turned the guns handle towards her, adding, If you beco my Ironbone Sects hall master, this Invincible Might Cannon, Miss Li can casually use.
Of course, he added. Not only can Miss Li use the various martial way resources, her subordinates will also have access.
Are you done? Li Luoqiu asked.
Jun Changxiao seriously concluded, Miss Li, this lord has invited you for the first ti today, but it is also the last ti. Please seriously consider, because opportunities not taken disappear forever.
Hehe, Li Luoqiu covered her mouth as she tittered. You say it like if I do not agree, I will regret it for a lifeti.
Jun Changxiao said, I will give you three days to consider.
Saying this, he turned around to leave.
Li Luoqiu called out, Halt.
Jun Changxiao stopped, asking, Did Miss Li carefully consider?
Li Luoqiu folded her hands together, curious. If I beco your Ironbone Sects hall master, what privileges will I have?
Jun Changxiao answered, You and your subordinates will not have limits on your freedom; you can co and go freely.
Mhm, an intelligence agent definitely had to leave the sect. If they stayed in the sect drinking tea and reading newspapers like old n, what use would they have?
Li Luoqiu smiled. Sect Head Jun invites with such sincerity, is it just because the sect lacks a hall master?
Of course not.
Jun Changxiao said, This lord will provide all martial way resources for Miss Li, you just have to maintain the corresponding value.
Help you kill people? Li Luoqiu suggested.
Jun Changxiao responded, Such a tiring and dirty job like killing people can be done by the male disciples. Miss Lis only responsibility is helping this lord collect information.
It is but information collection? So simple? Li Luoqiu was surprised.
Jun Changxiao asked, Do you want to also do other things?
Li Luoqiu tapped her chin. Give so ti to consider.
Three days later, this lord will co to visit again. I hope that Miss Li
His words hadnt even been finished when he was interrupted by her.
I have considered it. I am willing to accept your offer, becoming the Ironbone Sects hall master.
Jun Changxiao felt his lips twitch.
The speed of this womans careful consideration was really fast!
