Legend of Sword King

0The scholar turned his head and sized up the red-haired girl, as if he did not recognize her. "At this time, shouldn't you be so angry that you would pick a place to fight with her?"    0

    

The red-haired girl rolled her eyes at the scholar. "Why would I do that?"    

    

The scholar said unhappily, "Haven't you always treated me like this?"    

    

The red-haired woman squinted at him. "You deserve a beating."    

    

The scholar was very angry, but he did not dare to be angry. He could only turn around and sulk. Although he was angry, he still stared at Cheng Qing.    

    

This scene was rather strange to Chen Qing. He put down his chopsticks and asked the scholar, "If you had said that you were not here to find me, I would have thought it impossible."    

    

"Of course we're here for you." The scholar nodded emphatically.    

    

"I hope that's a good thing," Chen Qing said with a smile.    

    

"It's better than a pie falling from the sky." The scholar was serious.    

    

Chen Qing said, "If you say so, I don't have any confidence."    

    

The scholar chuckled, "I want to bring you back to my sect and make you my sect's disciple."    

    

Cheng Qing asked knowingly, "What kind of sect?"    

    

"You should have heard of the White Deer Sect."    

    

I've lived in the White Deer Sect for thirty years, and you said I've never heard of it.    

    

The White Deer Sect was one of the largest sects in the entire Western Lion Empire, and it had a long history. In terms of inheritances and history, it was the largest sect in the entire Western Lion Empire.    

    

Cheng Qing nodded with a look of reminiscence in his eyes. "Penetrating Thunderclap."    

    

Seeing the expression on Cheng Qing's face, the scholar smiled. Since Cheng Qing had heard of the White Deer Sect before, and was so fascinated by them as well, then the mission of bringing Cheng Qing back to the sect would be a piece of cake.    

    

The scholar asked with a smile, "Are you willing to join my sect?"    

    

After the scholar asked this question, the smile on his face became even more amiable. He confidently waited for Cheng Qing to agree. In the scholar's opinion, Cheng Qing had no reason to refuse.    

    

The White Deer Sect was one of the top sects in the Western Lion Empire. Every year, there would be countless young elites from aristocratic clans that tried their best to push their way into the White Deer Sect. The Western Lion Empire had hundreds of millions of citizens, but the White Deer Sect only had a few thousand. One could only imagine how difficult it was to enter the White Deer Sect.    

    

A puny youngster from a small market would naturally worship a sacred place like the White Deer Sect. If he had the chance to join, that would have been the best he could do. From this perspective, the scholar's description of 'even better than a pie falling from the sky' wasn't exaggerated in the slightest.    

    

However, contrary to the scholar's expectations, Chen Qing shook his head and said seriously, without a hint of a joking tone in his tone, "I don't want to."    

    

The scholar was stunned.    

    

The red-haired woman also turned her head in shock and looked at Cheng Qing in disbelief.    

    

"Young man, did you not hear me clearly? I'm asking you about your willingness to join the White Deer Sect, the kind that exempts you from examinations." The scholar was confused by Cheng Qing's unexpected answer.    

    

Cheng Qing sighed. "I don't want to join any sect."    

    

This was the truth. Becoming a disciple of a sect allows him to cultivate high level techniques, allows him to receive the guidance of an expert, and increases his cultivation level rapidly. But Cheng Qing didn't lack these since he was reborn, and as for cultivation resources, he didn't need to rely on a sect to earn them himself.    

    

Since this was the case, there was no need for Cheng Qing to join the sect. He could go under the sect's strict rules for no reason.
