Chapter 931: Heavenly Secret Pupil
"Lu Chen, this is the Yuhua Sect." Lan Caiyi said softly, with a hint of warmth in her tone.
"The Yuhua Sect is indeed extraordinary."
Lu Chen nodded, glanced around, and sighed in his heart.
The scene before him shocked him, and at the same time he felt an invisible pressure.
This is not only because of the magnificent buildings of Yuhua Sect, but also because of the strong atmosphere of cultivating immortals here.
When Lan Caiyi heard this, a look of pride emerged on her face. After all, no one could refuse someone praising her sect.
Then, Lan Caiyi looked at Aunt Liu and said with a smile:
"Aunt Liu! Go and do your work. I'll take Lu Chen to the inner gate to settle him down first, and then I'll come back to find you."
Liu Piaoxu nodded when he heard this, and without further ado, turned and left.
Lan Caiyi took Lu Chen through a series of exquisite corridors and came to a quiet courtyard.
The courtyard is filled with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance.
There is an exquisite small building in the center of the courtyard, which is decorated simply and elegantly.
"Lu Chen, you will live here for the time being. This is the residence that our Yuhua Sect specially prepared for distinguished guests. I hope you can live comfortably." Lan Caiyi said gently.
Lu Chen took a look at the surrounding environment, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and then he said:
"Miss Lan, I have a question in my mind. I wonder if Miss Lan can help me solve it?"
"You want to know why I was able to recognize you, why I saved you, and why I brought you back to the sect, right?"
Lan Caiyi smiled slightly, with a bright look in her beautiful eyes. She did not answer, but asked back. After seeing Lu Chen nodded slightly,
Then he said:
"The reason I was able to recognize you was because of a secret, and I saved you because I happened to meet you.
As for bringing you back, it is because I hope you can join us and become a disciple of Yuhua Sect."
Lu Chen was slightly stunned. He didn't expect the other party to be so direct. Then he couldn't help but ask:
"Why? My qualifications are just average, it's not worth it for you to do this."
"It's not worth it. Don't forget that you owe me a favor. Don't think too much about it. You will take the test in a few days. I am looking forward to your performance."
Hearing this, Lan Caiyi blinked at Lu Chen and gave him a mischievous smile.
Seeing that the other party was unwilling to answer, Lu Chen was silent for a moment, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
Although he had heard of the reputation of the Yuhua Sect, joining an unfamiliar sect meant facing many trivial matters.
But when he thought about it, it seemed that there would be no harm in having an additional identity as a disciple of the Yuhua Sect. If he got into trouble, he might be able to get the sect's protection.
Anyway, it will take nearly two years for the void ship to reach the Central Thirty-three Heavens Realm. I just don’t know if Lan Caiyi will regret bringing me into the sect.
When he thought of this, a look of pride appeared on Lu Chen's face.
"You are smiling so cunningly, are you planning something bad again?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Lan Caiyi's smart eyes. She looked at Lu Chen, who was a little embarrassed, and asked softly. The voice was like a clear spring flowing in the mountains, crisp and pleasant but with a little temptation.
Seeing that his thoughts were easily exposed, Lu Chen panicked a little, but he still pretended to be calm on his face and quickly denied it:
"No, Miss Lan, you misunderstood. I just felt an irrepressible joy at the thought of becoming a disciple of Yuhua Sect. I really didn't have any other thoughts."
As he spoke, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and tried to make himself look less guilty.
Lan Caiyi glanced at Lu Chen suspiciously, with a gleam of suspicion in her eyes, as if she could see through the secrets in his heart.
After a moment, she said, "Have a good rest. Tomorrow I will take you on a tour of our sect so that you can have a more comprehensive understanding of the Yuhua Sect."
After she finished speaking, she moved like a light butterfly and flew away into the air, leaving Lu Chen standing there with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
Watching Lan Caiyi leave, Lu Chen couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking: "This woman is really smart."
Then he entered the room, set up the formation as usual, and began to practice.
As for Lan Caiyi, she had just returned to her boudoir when Liu Piaoxu broke in.
"Aunt Liu, why are you here? Is there something urgent?"
Lan Caiyi nodded slightly and asked in confusion.
Normally, apart from going out, Liu Piaoxu usually has his own things to do. If he has nothing to do, he seldom comes to see me.
Liu Piaoxu heard this and looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. After sitting down, he said earnestly:
"Cai Yi, I'm not being nosy, but I want to remind you that if you want to become a sect saint, you can't leave a bad impression because of an irrelevant person.
Besides, that kid is so ordinary that it is not worth you to bring him back to the sect."
Lan Caiyi heard this, her beautiful eyes turned, and then she revealed a mysterious smile, and then explained:
"Aunt Liu, you don't know something. Let me ask you, a cultivator who has just ascended to heaven for less than a year, not only has he converted all his true essence into immortal essence, but he has also broken through to the early stage of earthly immortality.
He is also a fifth-grade immortal pill master and fifth-grade immortal formation master. Don't you think we should find a way to recruit such a person into the sect?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Piaoxu immediately revealed an expression of disbelief, and asked in surprise:
"What? It only took a year? How is that possible? Are you talking about Lu Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Lan Caiyi did not answer immediately, but nodded slightly, confirming Liu Piaoxu's guess.
Then, he continued, "Aunt Liu, you also know that my Tianji pupil will not make mistakes, and this person's fate is very strange, even Tianji pupil can't see clearly, which is why I deliberately investigated him."
After hearing this, Liu Piaoxu was even more surprised. She stood up and paced back and forth in the room, obviously thinking about something.
After a moment, she stopped and stared at Lan Caiyi, her tone becoming serious:
"Cai Yi, are you sure he really has such great potential? If so, then he is indeed extraordinary.
However, we must also act with caution, after all, such a person will inevitably attract the covetousness of other sects."
Lan Caiyi smiled slightly, looking confident:
“Aunt Liu, I have already considered this. Although Lu Chen has great potential, he currently does not have any sect background, and his personality is relatively independent and not easily disturbed by the outside world.
It was fate that I was able to successfully bring him back this time."
Liu Piaoxu nodded, seeming satisfied with Lan Caiyi's analysis:
"In that case, how do you plan to deal with him? You know, the elders in the sect are all old foxes, and their vision is very vicious."
"I have already thought about this,"
Lan Caiyi said confidently, “I will first let him serve as an ordinary disciple in the sect and observe for a period of time.
If his performance is indeed outstanding, his status will be gradually promoted. This way, we can avoid arousing suspicion from others and help him gradually adapt to the life of the sect. "
Liu Piaoxu smiled slightly when she heard this: "It seems that you have considered everything carefully. In this case, I will not say any more.
However, Caiyi, you must always be vigilant. After all, the competition within the sect is very fierce, and any wrong step may bring unpredictable consequences. "
"Thank you Aunt Liu for your reminder. I will pay attention to it." Lan Caiyi said solemnly, "I will be personally responsible for Lu Chen's affairs and make sure everything goes well."
Seeing Lan Caiyi's firm attitude, Liu Piaoxu was relieved and patted her shoulder gently: "Caiyi, you are becoming more and more mature. I believe you can handle everything. If you need anything, just come to me."
"I certainly will, Aunt Liu." Lan Caiyi nodded gratefully.
The two talked for a while, and then Liu Piaoxu said goodbye and left.
Lan Caiyi looked at Liu Piaoxu's receding back and became more resolute in her decision...
