C20 A New Test

In comparison, the Hua Ding Sect was clad in noble armor, whereas the Qing Xuan Sect was like a wild child who had grown up in the countryside. Their clothes were ragged and tattered, and they didn't deserve the title of transcendent power.

"Alien Minister Chen, it's said that there are Spell Formation protecting the halls of the Hua Ding Sect. Moreover, they can be activated at the same time, forming an extremely high grade Heavy Treasure. Its power can be said to be able to destroy the world."

Peng Lu shouted excitedly. Qin Sheng, who was standing next to him, nodded slightly. If they had a choice, who would be willing to go to a lousy place like the Qing Xuan Sect to cultivate?

This was nothing to Chen Fan. It was just a pile of bricks. He had experienced countless changes in the world over the past ten thousand years. No matter how strong the palace was, it would eventually collapse one day. There were no flowers, no flowers, and no flowers. It was even more impossible for a sect to prosper for a long time.

"So it's an important guest of the Qing Xuan Sect. Please forgive me for not welcoming you." A middle-aged man walked towards him with a smile on his face. It seemed like he was acquainted with Qin Sheng.

Although both of them were protectors, not only were their positions different in the Sect, but their strength was also a bit stronger. It could be discerned from the aura that was emitted naturally.

This was the difference between the Hua Ding Sect and the Qing Xuan Sect. From ordinary disciples to the protectors who were the backbone of the force, they were both a lot higher. Now, they were barely able to support themselves with the help of a few old men.

"Alien Minister Chen, this is Guardian Wang of the Hua Ding Sect." Qin Sheng suddenly felt the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Uh." Guardian Wang was stunned. A trace of surprise flashed across his face. Then, he stretched out his hand stiffly. "Please forgive my poor eyesight. Alien Minister Chen, please forgive me."

Speaking of which, this Protector seemed to have known the purpose of Chen Fan and the others' visit. Without asking anything, he invited them into the Sect and found a courtyard to rest.

"Please wait for a moment. Allow me to inform them."

Protector Wang was nowhere to be seen. He left Chen Fan and the others alone for a long time. Only then did a dao attendant come over to inform them that the elders were all cultivating. The fastest they could receive them was the day after tomorrow.

Obviously, the upper echelons of Hua Ding Sect were still discussing. Chen Fan and the others couldn't urge them, so they could only wait quietly.

...

In a great hall in the depths of the Hua Ding Sect, there were ten elders sitting in two different sects. They had white hair and a vigorous aura was hidden in their bodies. They looked like huge dragons that were hibernating.

"Who is the person sent by the Qing Xuan Sect to propose marriage?"

The leader of the group asked. This was naturally Sect Leader, Nangong Yi of the Hua Ding Sect.

"Replying to Sect Leader, there is a consecrate and protector, as well as a accompanying disciple."

The one standing below was Protector Wang. He was currently reporting the situation of Chen Fan and the others.

"Heh, it's actually three generations of grandfather and grandson. The Qing Xuan Sect is truly sincere."

The Great Elder smiled. He had never seen anyone come to propose marriage to him. It was such a poor situation. It was just three people.

"Let me just say it. The Qing Xuan Sect has declined to the point where they can't be helped up. Why do we need to waste our energy?" Fourth Elder said. He was firmly opposed to the marriage.

"Are they only here to propose marriage, or have they already brought their outstanding talents here?" Nangong Yi was unmoved. He was more concerned about the future happiness of his granddaughter.

"Sect Leader, it should be a simple test. And among the few of them, the consecrate looks quite young."

Protector Wang was also very confused. Normally, only the highly respected Senior Expert could hold the position of consecrate. He had never heard of any young man climbing up to it.

No matter how talented he was, his combat strength and experience would be severely damaged, let alone a transcendent power like the Qing Xuan Sect.

"I've received news that a young man has joined the Qing Xuan Sect and was promoted to a High Official on the same day. This speed is unprecedented." Fifth Elder's tone was filled with ridicule.

"This matter sounds like a pure joke. I never thought that the Qing Xuan Sect would actually be freed. It's simply hopeless."

Fourth Elder shook his head repeatedly. He didn't understand what the higher ups of the Qing Xuan Sect were thinking.

"They are throwing themselves into a desperate situation. No matter how talented they are, they are still just a junior. How can they do this?"

None of the elders agreed with what the Qing Xuan Sect had done. Of course, Lan Yu and the others were even more helpless. As long as there was a solution, it wouldn't be so extreme.

This was the result they had fought for as much as they could. Otherwise, they were afraid that there would be another elder who was the biggest joke in the world.

"Regarding the marriage, I want to discuss it further." Although he hadn't seen Chen Fan yet, the Third Elder had already come to a conclusion.

The few elders in the hall had the same thought. They didn't support it to begin with, but in the end, the Qing Xuan Sect acted in such a way, throwing away that thought.

"I think that the actions of the Qing Xuan Sect just happened to show their sincerity." The Seventh Elder, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said. He stood on Nangong Yi's side.

"That's true. We didn't let this young consecrate carry out the marriage directly. If we don't come here to propose marriage, it wouldn't be a good idea for a group of old men to come here personally." Ninth Elder quickly agreed.

"That's not right. Even if it's against the rules for some Senior Expert to come here, the gap between our Hua Ding Sect and Qing Xuan Sect is obvious. I'm just afraid that they won't be able to help us."

"That's a little too certain. Marriage is one thing, and the overall strength of the Qing Xuan Sect is another. In fact, they still have some foundation."

The debate in the hall was endless. Overall, most of the elders were against this marriage.

In addition, there were two very smart people who chose to be neutral. The two of them didn't help each other and didn't have any prejudice against the Qing Xuan Sect. However, they did not approve of Holy Maiden marrying someone.

"Junior Brothers, the marriage between the Hua Ding Sect and the Qing Xuan Sect has always been a tradition that has lasted for hundreds of years. You should know the general situation of our sect."

Nangong Yi raised his voice and forcefully suppressed the dispute in the hall. Of course, he was the first to agree to the marriage, but it wasn't something that could be arranged by anyone.

"After careful consideration, the Qing Xuan Sect is already the best choice. If everyone is still dissatisfied, then you all can come up with an explanation. As long as it is better than this decision, I will definitely support it."

No one spoke in the hall. They all knew where Nangong Yi's pain was. If they wanted to speak now, it would be no different than tearing open the scab with their hands.

Protector Wang retreated silently and noticed that the atmosphere was not right. As soon as he walked out of the hall, a bang sounded from behind him.

After a while, Nangong Yi continued to persuade them. Even if they couldn't unify the opinions of these old men, they had to at least have the approval of more than three elders. Otherwise, the marriage alliance would certainly be in turmoil.

"I know that all of you are doing this for the sake of Sect, but when the time comes, let go of some face. Yuan Sect is pressing them step by step. Instead of having one more enemy, it's better to befriend them."

Nangong Yi's words were loud and clear. As Sect Leader, he had to start from the overall standpoint of the Sect. Putting aside the appearance of his granddaughter, the Yuan Sect was his top priority.
