C15 Accept invitation

"You must be little brother Xiao Yi Tian, right? I am the person in charge of this sea trip, Jiang Tingyu. Everyone calls me Old Jiang. If you don't think you're losing out, why don't you call me Brother Jiang?" The middle-aged man smiled as he patted Xiao Yi Tian's shoulder.

"Ok, Brother Jiang!"

"Haha, today I recognize you as my little brother! If anything happens in the future, just look for me! "Come, let's find a place nearby to drink. We brothers will have a good drink here!" Without any explanation, Jiang Tingyu started walking on crutches. Perhaps it was because she was in a good mood, but her steps were much steadier than before.

After sitting down, Jiang Tingyu carefully observed Xiao Yitian and found him to be unruly and unruly. The more she looked, the more she liked him. "Little brother Xiao Yitian, how did you end up in that sea? Why are you in such danger alone? "

Xiao Yi Tian's heart trembled as he thought to himself: "Although old brother Jiang is a straightforward person, he still needs to be careful." Thus, Xiao Yi Tian didn't show it. He slowly drank a cup of water and said, "Big brother Jiang, you don't know that this little brother was sent by the family to hone me." Oh? "I wonder what little brother Xiao Yitian's clan is like …"

Xiao Yitian revealed a troubled expression as he scratched his head. Jiang Tingyu laughed sloppily, "Haha, don't worry, little brother. I want to invite you to join our union. With your cultivation at such a young age, you will definitely become something great in the future! Why don't we rest for the night and report back to the union headquarters with our team tomorrow morning? "With me, Old Jiang, protecting you, I will definitely not mistreat you."

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yitian nodded and downed the next cup of wine. He thought, "Zi Yan, are you alright?" The night had always descended unconsciously, and within a few days, it would be completely dark. While everyone was sleeping, Xiao Yitian was sitting cross-legged on the bed operating his Qi. Even though he had his eyes closed, he could feel anything moving around him. Was this the Sea of Bitterness' ability to observe his surroundings?

...

The next day, Jiang Tingyu and her group arrived at the Xuanyuan Council headquarters. Before they even reached the main gate of the headquarters, they saw an old man wearing a purple robe standing in front of the crowd. When he got closer, the elder's serious face broke into a smile. He walked over enthusiastically, "Old Jiang, you're finally back! This old one has a bad premonition these days. I'm just worried that something might have happened to you. "

"Thank you for your concern, Guild Leader. This trip is indeed a narrow escape from death. Thank you for your help, little brother. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to return." Jiang Tingyu looked at Xiao Yi Tian with a smile and said, "President, I have a presumptuous request. I don't know if it's possible …"

"It's best that everyone returns safely. Speak." The president said with a beard on his hand.

"It's like this. I, Jiang, have already become brothers with Xiao Yitian on my way here. I hope that the president will approve Xiao Yitian's entry into the Association!"

The president looked at the arrogant Yi Xuan and smiled, "Fine, we've made such a great contribution. If I don't allow it, everyone will definitely object to me, won't they?"

"Hahahahaha …"

Just as the members of the association were laughing, a young man around the same age as Xiao Yitian revealed a look of hatred on his face.

This man was Huo Hai. Relying on the fact that his father was a high-ranked magic scholar from some second-rate union, he was domineering. He was very strict with himself, and he trained very hard, and he wanted to be a magician like his father. However, he was narrow-minded and could not bear to see others surpass him in strength. Therefore, he went around wearing small shoes for those rookies who had power. Most rookies chose to stay silent after knowing Huo Hai's identity, which also contributed to Huo Hai's character today.

Under the guidance of the disciples of the Association, Xiao Yitian visited the entire Association and settled down his luggage. However, on his way to the Cultivation Field, he met Huo Hai. To be exact, he was stopped by Huo Hai.

Xiao Yitian frowned, but he still stopped and asked, "May I ask, what may I do for you?"

"Hmph, so a rookie is indeed a rookie." "Don't think you can get up just because you have the president and old man Jiang supporting you. Do you know who my father is? My father is …" Just when Huo Hai was talking in high spirits, a sentence suddenly came out of nowhere.

"Who your father is has nothing to do with me." Xiao Yitian glanced at him coldly, then turned around and left.

"Yo yo yo, so you're the successor of Muggle." Huo Hai's eyes were filled with disdain as he mocked Xiao Yi Tian's back.

Xiao Yitian stopped moving his body and walked away without turning his head back.

Dong dong dong dong. The Purple Coin of the union rang out without exception. It was pitch black below the stage and close to a thousand people were gathered there. Just as everyone was discussing the event, a wave of pressure came from everyone's heart, causing them to be unable to say a single word. Everyone looked towards the stage at the same time.

"Today, I received a quest from the higher-ups of the Mage Association. I want to choose two of you. "The premise of this mission is to inform everyone that it is exceptionally dangerous. I hope that everyone will consider your own strength while recommending yourself, I do not want to lose any one of you."

"This …" Hearing the president's words, several of the warriors who had volunteered immediately hesitated. After all, their lives were more important than the successful completion of the quest. The president looked down at the silent stage and sighed, shaking his head.

"Reporting to the president, I wish to participate!" "Reporting to the guild leader, I wish to participate!" At almost the same time, two different voices sounded out. It was Xiao Yitian and Huo Hai. Hearing Xiao Yitian's voice, Huo Hai glanced at him and muttered in disdain, "Hmph, Muggle still dares to overestimate his strength. I'm truly sad for your parents." Xiao Yitian's eyes turned cold and he clenched his fists tightly. He glared fiercely at Huo Hai but didn't say a word.

As expected, the quota was set between Xiao Yitian and Huo Hai. Xiao Yitian's expression could not be seen, as if he was about to do something that had nothing to do with him. Huo Hai, on the other hand, was filled with disdain and contempt.

At night, after Xiao Yutian finished cultivating, he felt the true energy within his body become even more turbid. He had even reached the large success stage of the Sea of Bitterness. Looking at the silhouette reflected in the moonlight on the ground, Xiao Yan faintly sighed. Carefully opening a red-black bundle from under the bed, he held a jade pendant in his hands. "Zi Yan, are you alright?"

The next day, the wind raged, but it was as planned. The two of them were fully prepared and ready to set off. They followed the instructions on the mission list and started their journey. Xiao Yitian touched the jade pendant on his chest out of habit. This gesture landed unreservedly in Huo Hai's eyes. "Hmph, Muggle, something like a jade pendant will only become a burden in battle. Don't expect me to save you." With that, he reached out to grab the jade pendant.

Xiao Yitian's entire body tensed up as he dodged the attack with a cold expression on his face, "What are you doing!?"

"I want to clean up the guild leader's affairs. I've disliked you for a long time. Smelly brat, give me your life!" As soon as he said that, Huo Hai jumped back, opened up some distance, and began to cast the spell. When Xiao Yitian saw Huo Hai's hand seals, he frowned and continued to run away, "What are you doing? Stop quickly if you have enough."

"What a joke, who do you think you are? Kid like you, each time I kill you, it's as easy as killing ants. People like you are fated to be slaves for us nobles! Haha, tell that lowly parent of yours to lick my shoes! " The wind was blowing harder now. Huo Hai's expression was ferocious.
