Realizing this, Qin Mountain and the others all wore expressions as if they were constipated.
Eventually, it was a woman dressed in a colorful gown with a gold bracelet on her wrists and ankles, and a rather beautiful appearance, who looked at Qin Mountain and said:
"Senior Brother Qin, in my humble opinion, the urgent matter at hand is for us to quickly eliminate the misunderstanding with Junior Brother Ji.
You must be well aware of our master's temperament.
If we've made every effort now, then it is fine, but if we do nothing and he personally intervenes and knows all the details, I'm afraid..."
She didn't continue, but both Qin Mountain and Feng Zitao evidently understood her meaning.
Considering that possibility, a tinge of apprehension flashed in Qin Mountain and Feng Zitao's eyes.
Alongside a deep sense of—helplessness.
After a while.
Qin Mountain began to nod with a wry smile.
"Forget it, forget it. Junior Feng, Junior Sister Tang, you will accompany me to meet them this time."
"Wait a moment."
However, Junior Sister Tang suddenly stopped Qin Mountain.
"Senior Brother Qin, before that, there's a matter we must first explain to Junior Brother Ji."
"Oh? You mean?"
Hearing Junior Sister Tang's words, both Qin Mountain and Feng Zitao's expressions suddenly became tense.
Evidently, they realized what Junior Sister Tang was referring to.
Qin Mountain then turned to Feng Zitao beside him and said indifferently:
"Junior Feng, I'll trouble you to handle this matter.
Remember, you must ensure that Junior Brother Ji is satisfied."
"Yes, Senior Brother Qin, I understand."
Feng Zitao responded with an indifferent nod.
Without further hesitation, the three left the palace they were in.
A short while later.
Ji Haoyuan and Nangong Jin, located on Thunder Forest Peak, suddenly saw a sky full of rainbow-colored clouds and numerous floral showers drifting down.
Both of their expressions slightly changed.
In the next moment, amid the endless radiance, two figures appeared before them.
They were Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang.
Upon seeing these two, Nangong Jin's expression shook.
Without a word, he immediately stepped forward to greet them.
"Junior greets the two elders!"
Saying this, Nangong Jin quickly transmitted a message to Ji Haoyuan, informing him of their identities.
Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan was slightly surprised.
It turned out that these two were the ones who had been supporting him from behind.
Unexpectedly, they had come personally this time.
Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan did not act arrogantly and went forward to pay his respects as well.
"Junior Ji Haoyuan greets the two seniors."
However, both Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang smiled and shook their heads after hearing his words.
"Now you are a True Inheritor of our Holy Land, and your status is equivalent to ours, so you don't need to address us as seniors. You may call us equals."
After a pause, Lu Yuanshan smiled and said:
"You are called Ji Haoyuan, right? So, my Junior Sister Dai and I will presumptuously call you Junior Brother Ji from now on, okay?"
Of course, Ji Haoyuan would not refuse and immediately responded with "Senior Brother Lu, Senior Sister Dai."
"Good!"
Both Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang smiled and nodded.
After a while.
Lu Yuanshan continued: "Junior Brother Ji, although we are meeting for the first time, we should not be unfamiliar with each other.
Therefore, some things I'll say directly without beating around the bush."
"Well, feel free to speak, Senior Brother Lu."
Ji Haoyuan also nodded with a smile.
In fact, he was already very clear about the purpose of Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang's visit.
The only matter that would prompt two Refining Void Divine Monarchs to visit personally and in such haste would be an invitation for him to become a disciple, among other things.
Indeed, Ji Haoyuan was not mistaken.
Lu Yuanshan proceeded: "As you might already know, any True Inheritor of our Holy Land must choose a Celestial Monarch Elder or a Supreme Elder as their mentor.
My master, Master Tianxu, though not a Mahayana Supreme Elder, excels at mentoring disciples.
You see, myself, Junior Sister Dai, and another who is unable to join us today, Junior Brother Pei, are all his disciples.
The most crucial factor is that my master had a very good relationship with Master Tianyuan in the past.
Even I received assistance from Master Tianyuan in my early years.
So, Junior Brother Ji, if you choose to have my master as your mentor, I promise you a direct disciple's position first.
Secondly.
A six-tier Daoist Field Spirit Peak and accompanying and Guardian Warriors, ranging from tier five to tier six, can be arranged for you immediately.
Beside all this, those who came with you to our Central Earth Divine Continent can also cultivate in our Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land's Inner Sect.
I can offer you three Core Disciple positions, ten elite Inner Sect disciple positions, and a hundred ordinary Inner Sect disciple positions.
Additional Outer Sect disciple positions are unlimited.
Moreover, besides all these, the Scripture Pavilion below the sixth floor will be entirely open to you unconditionally.
Even the sixth level grants you three opportunities for entry, allowing you to select three suitable Dharma Gates.
Of course.
The specifics of this can be discussed with your mentor after apprenticeship, listening to his elderly advice.
I wonder, Junior Brother Ji, what do you think?"
At this point in the conversation, both Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang were staring at Ji Haoyuan without blinking.
Even Nangong Jin, standing to the side, couldn't hide the envy on his face at the moment.
Indeed.
Becoming a True Disciple changes everything.
Such treatment, even a relatively ordinary Refining Void Divine Monarch would inevitably feel envy, perhaps even jealousy upon seeing it.
This is the greatest difference between a Holy Land and non-Holy Land.
Ask yourself, which non-Holy Land forces would provide such generous treatment to their True Disciples?
It's not a question of willingness but of capability to provide.
Ji Haoyuan felt a slight sense of gratitude deep down as well.
Remembering how he used to struggle to become an elite Inner Sect disciple.
Facing constant obstacles.
Yet now, speaking of Inner Sect elite disciples, he can effortlessly give that away as if it's a trifling matter.
Even the Inner Sect core disciple, he could easily secure three positions.
Should he nod and agree now, everything Lu Yuanshan mentioned could be easily attained, without lifting a finger.
His status would elevate further.
From a Holy Land True Disciple with no sect background to a True Disciple under a Celestial Monarch Elder.
With such roots, origins, and identity, there's nowhere in the Central Earth Divine Continent he wouldn't be able to go.
However, apprenticeship is no small matter.
It's unlike the so-called student-teacher relationship he knew in his previous life.
Here, the master-disciple relationship truly binds fortunes and misfortunes together.
The master is responsible for the disciple, even bearing consequences for the disciple's faults, involving himself in the disciple's troubles.
Likewise.
Disciples must sincerely respect their master.
As it's said, when the disciple has challenges, the disciple helps the master with his burdens.
Just like Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang right now.
If the master falls out of favor, faces danger, or becomes a victim of an enemy's plot, this peril and consequence would also fall onto the direct disciples.
So.
Even though Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang have indeed secretly helped him.
Regarding this matter, he still dares not leave a trace of carelessness, nor make an easy decision.
But the two personally coming to him in such a short time shows that their intent is extremely clear.
Refusing right now would be inappropriate both sentimentally and logically.
Just as Ji Haoyuan was pondering what excuse to use to temporarily delay, two immensely powerful presences suddenly appeared outside Thunder Forest Peak.
Before the people arrived, a laugh was heard first.
"Haha!
Senior Brother Lu, Junior Sister Dai, your offer is quite good, but compared to my Guangxuan Cave Heaven, it's still a bit lacking."
As the voice faded, the figures of Qin Mountain and Tang Luoyan emerged in front of Ji Haoyuan and the others.
Seeing these two appear, Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang's eyebrows immediately furrowed.
Nangong Jin, standing by, was startled.
Clearly, he hadn't expected these two to come here as well, no matter what.
At once, he discreetly transmitted his voice to Ji Haoyuan, informing him of the identities of the two.
Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan narrowed his eyes.
Qin Mountain and Tang Luoyan suddenly raised their gaze, simultaneously glancing at Nangong Jin.
This sent a chill through Nangong Jin's heart, causing cold sweat to break out on his back unconsciously.
Ji Haoyuan, Lu Yuanshan, and Dai Yunfang all furrowed their brows slightly.
Just as they were about to step forward to shield Nangong Jin, Qin Mountain's face suddenly brightened with a radiant smile, then he turned to Ji Haoyuan with a sincere tone and said:
"Junior Brother Ji, I suppose you've already been informed of both our identities.
Here, I cannot deny that there were indeed some misunderstandings between us before.
I first offer you an apology."
As his words ended, Qin Mountain and Tang Luoyan beside him both bowed deeply toward Ji Haoyuan to express their regret.
Which made Lu Yuanshan and Dai Yunfang beside them furrow their brows even tighter.
They instinctively felt that Qin Mountain's visit had a significant purpose.
To reach their level of identity and cultivation, it's extremely hard to bow to anyone.
Even if the person was the Holy Land True Disciple.
After all, strictly speaking, no one's status is lower than another's.
Under normal circumstances, Qin Mountain and Tang Luoyan had no need to go to such lengths.
Sure enough.
Then Qin Mountain continued: "Rest assured, since it was a misunderstanding and our mistake before, we will definitely give you an explanation."
Buzz!
As his words faded, a void suddenly opened before them.
Immediately after, Feng Zitao was seen arriving directly in front of Ji Haoyuan, carrying two people.
