At this moment, the conflict between Li Bijiang and Chen Yuantong had reached its breaking point. Seeing that a huge battle was about to break out, Jiang Qing finally could not stand it anymore. She said coldly, "Aren't the two of you just letting the new disciples laugh at you? The palace master does not wish for the two vice palace masters to lose the reputation of the Evil Dragon Palace. Since you both want this disciple, then let him decide. What's the point of fighting to see who is stronger?"
Jiang Qing's words were intimidating enough. The two of them were very confident in themselves. Thinking of this, they also felt that it was not suitable to fight in public. However, when they saw Chen Yuantong's face, they really wanted to beat him up …
"Since that's the case, little brother Long Chen, you decide for yourself. Follow me, Chen Yuantong. As long as it's a Body Tempering Battle Skill, I can get it for you. Let's not talk about anything else. In any case, becoming my disciple is much better than being a woman." Chen Yuantong guided Long Chen patiently.
Li Bijiang coldly snorted and said, "It would be strange if I'm willing to follow someone as fierce as you. Which one of my disciples isn't handsome, confident, and beautiful? Moreover, I, Li Bijiang, am not any weaker than you."
Now, it was up to Long Chen to make his own choice. Jiang Qing glanced at him and asked, "Do you want to join one of them?"
Chen Yuantong and Li Bijiang looked at Long Chen in anticipation. They tried their best to put on friendly smiles. The current Long Chen was like a delicious cake.
What made them despair was that Long Chen actually shook his head and said, "I don't want any of them."
Everyone was stunned. Long Chen actually rejected the good intentions of the two vice palace masters.
"Then which elder's disciple do you want to become, or an ordinary disciple?" Jiang Qing continued to ask.
He felt that with Long Chen's arrogance, he would choose to become an ordinary disciple and slowly climb up. However, what surprised him was that Long Chen shook his head again.
"Then what do you want?" Jiang Qing asked.
Long Chen said bluntly, "Could it be that I can't take you as my master?"
The tone of this sentence was very arrogant, but only Long Chen could speak in such a tone. After listening, Li Bijiang and Chen Yuantong were stunned. It turned out that all this trouble was for them. The most difficult thing was that this was Long Chen's own choice, and they couldn't refute it even if they wanted to. At this time, they also doubted Jiang Qing's intention of letting Long Chen choose by himself. In fact, he had long valued Long Chen, but he didn't participate in the quarrel between Chen Yuantong and Li Bijiang. When they quarreled, Long Chen's image in Long Chen's heart would be lowered, thus highlighting Jiang Qing. In fact, Long Chen finally chose Jiang Qing, which was actually very reasonable, but they couldn't understand it for a while.
Not everyone understood Jiang Qing's thoughts.
However, what Jiang Qing didn't know was that Long Chen truly chose him purely because of his name.
Everyone was waiting for Jiang Qing's answer. The two vice palace masters at the side were so angry that their faces turned red. Today, they had lost a lot of face. Regardless of whether Jiang Qing agreed or not, the two of them snorted coldly, flicked their sleeves and left.
Jiang Qing didn't even look at Li Bijiang and Chen Yuantong leaving, and said to Long Chen with a slight smile, "Since that's the case, then you are my seventh disciple. These two are your sixth senior brother and fifth senior brother."
The other elders and hall masters exchanged glances. They knew that Jiang Qing was the one with deep foresight, subduing Long Chen without batting an eyelid. They admired this Hall Master Jiang a lot. It could be said that the most famous person in the Evil Dragon Palace was the Evil Dragon Palace Master, and Jiang Qing was the person closest to the Evil Dragon Palace Master. He could be said to be the brains of the Evil Dragon Palace Master, and he was the number two person in the Evil Dragon Palace. Even if the other vice palace masters were as strong as him, their positions might not be higher.
If he wanted Long Chen to be his disciple, the others would not be able to compete with him. Hence, Chen Yuantong and Li Bijiang swallowed their anger and left without saying a word.
"Congratulations, Hall Master Jiang, for taking in a genius."
"In the future, Long Chen will definitely become a pillar of support for our Evil Dragon Palace. At that time, it will all be Hall Master Jiang's credit."
"Little Brother Long Chen will definitely bring glory to our Evil Dragon Palace. I believe that in the future, you will definitely be a rising star of our Evil Dragon Palace."
The others quickly sucked up to Jiang Qing.
Jiang Qing waved his hand and said, "Alright, that's all. If any of your halls lack people, bring these youths over and teach them well. Let everyone have a chance to grow."
"Yes."
The others were very tactful. Now that Jiang Qing was in a good mood, no one would waste this opportunity to curry favor with her. One by one, they brought away the dozen or so young martial artists who had come with Long Chen. There were even one or two elders who publicly accepted them as disciples. These people could be considered to have benefited from Long Chen's light and had a good place to go.
Those elders and hall masters understood that Long Chen had great potential. If he became amazing in the future, these people would definitely take care of each other since they had spent a lot of time with Long Chen and were from the same batch. With this relationship, they would be able to build a bridge between them and Jiang Qing, which would be very beneficial to them.
Thanks to Long Chen, everyone was in a good mood.
After everything was settled, everyone bid farewell to Jiang Qing and left one by one. Only Jiang Qing, his two disciples, Long Chen, and Liu Qingfeng were left.
"Brother Long Chen, I hope you have a good time in the Evil Dragon Palace. If you have any problems that you can't solve, you can come and find me, Liu Qingfeng.
I will definitely help you, "Liu Qingfeng said with a smile. He was very satisfied with handing Long Chen to Jiang Qing. He did not let down Nangong Lie's last warning.
Liu Qingfeng exchanged glances with Jiang Qing and did not say anything. Everything was understood without words. After that, he also left. Behind Jiang Qing, his two disciples looked a little awkward. Previously, they could not bear to see how powerful Long Chen was. After fighting with Long Chen and experiencing Long Chen's true strength, they were filled with admiration. Now, Long Chen suddenly became their junior brother, and they would have to spend time with each other in the future …
Thinking about how they were defeated by their Junior Brother, the two of them felt their faces burning.
"Seventh Junior Brother, let's formally introduce ourselves. I am Jiang Lingwen, my master's fifth disciple. I am older than you. Although I am not as strong as you, in terms of seniority, you still have to call me Fifth Senior Brother," one of the twins said.
One of the twins said. After acknowledging Long Chen, he no longer had an overbearing attitude. That overbearing attitude was aimed at ordinary disciples, not his own junior brother.
At the side, Jiang Lingwu also said, "My brother and I were born at about the same time. It's just that he came out first. I am your Sixth Senior Brother, but I am also very impressed by Seventh Junior Brother's combat strength. It's even better if you can become my master's disciple. In the future, there will be more opportunities for you to exchange pointers."
Long Chen discovered that these two senior brothers weren't as annoying as he had imagined. He felt relieved. After coming to the True Martial Emperor Palace, Long Chen didn't want to have any life and death conflicts with others in the short term. As for Jiang Qing … Long Chen didn't have any feelings for him now, and he would try his best not to. When Long Chen's strength reached a certain level, he would definitely stab him in the back.
Jiang Qing was very satisfied with Long Chen. At this moment, he was sizing up Long Chen with a smile and nodded in satisfaction, "Neither arrogant nor rash. Good temperament. Both of you should learn from Junior Brother. In terms of mentality, you two are much more childish than him."
At this moment, Jiang Qing's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Long Chen and said, "Since you have become my disciple, you naturally have to shoulder the responsibility of being a role model for the other disciples of the Evil Dragon Palace. After we arrive at the River Heart Pavilion, I will teach you the sect rules of the True Martial Emperor Palace. At that time, you must memorize them and strictly enforce the sect rules. You will be the role model for the other disciples. If you commit any crimes, commit fratricide, deceive your superiors and subordinates, or invert right and wrong, even if you are my disciple, I will place righteousness before family. Do you understand?"
At this moment, Jiang Qing's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Long Chen and said, "Since you have become my disciple, you naturally have to shoulder the responsibility of being a role model for the other disciples of the Evil Dragon Palace. When we arrive at the River Heart Pavilion, I will teach you the sect rules of the True Martial Emperor Palace. At that time, you must memorize them and strictly follow the sect rules. You will be the role model for the other disciples. If you break the law, kill each other, deceive the superiors and subordinates, or invert right and wrong, even if you are my disciple, I will still put righteousness before family. Do you understand?"
Although Long Chen had acknowledged him as his master, he didn't acknowledge him as his master. It was just a formality. Long Chen wouldn't stay in a place like the Evil Dragon Palace for too long. He only had one goal, the Martial God Palace surrounded by the 99 Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars. Only by reaching there would he be able to match Lingxi's identity and status.
The strongest palace among the three thousand palaces was only at the level of the Eastern Emperor Palace. It was far from being comparable to the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace.
"Disciple understands." Long Chen lowered his head temporarily.
As for the sect rules, he could just close one eye. As long as he didn't let others find out, everything was fine. Long Chen was rebellious by nature. He understood this very well.
"Very good."
Jiang Qing nodded and said, "Alright, I will bring you to the River Heart Pavilion now. I will bring you to meet the other senior and junior brothers. You can recuperate in the River Heart Pavilion for a period of time. Your senior brothers and sisters will bring you to familiarize you with the Evil Dragon Palace. At the same time, they will give you cultivation tasks."
Long Chen didn't say much. He just nodded.
The huge Evil Dragon Palace was filled with mysteries. The dense monarch spiritual energy was hidden in the forest. Following Jiang Qing's imposing figure, the three disciples followed behind him. They headed towards the River Heart Pavilion where Jiang Qing was. The River Heart Pavilion was located on one of the main peaks in the True Dragon Mountain Range. The height and size of this peak were among the top five peaks in the True Dragon Mountain Range. Only Jiang Qing and his direct disciples could enter this place. The density of the spiritual energy here was incomparable to ordinary peaks.
At the peak of this peak was a vast lake. The lake was shrouded in mist, making it look like a fairyland. The lake water was snow-white, as if it was covered with a layer of snow. In the center of the lake was a huge palace, hidden in the mist. It had golden bricks and green tiles, birds chirping, and the fragrance of flowers. It was a very enjoyable place.
"Seventh Junior Brother, we won't get to know each other until we fight," Jiang Lingwen and Long Chen whispered behind Jiang Qing.
