Chapter 2191
At this moment, Xiao Chen had no other choice. Although the two of them did not blame him for being greedy, they were worried that if he studied the art of alchemy and the art of formations at the same time, he would only end up with mediocre achievements in both paths.
If he could not find a suitable reason for the two elders to agree to accept him as a disciple, he might not even have the opportunity to take them as his master. Therefore, at this moment, Xiao Chen instantly said all the reasons that he could think of. Regardless of whether these reasons were reliable or not, he only knew that he had to seize this opportunity.
After Elder Zhang and Old Ghost heard his words, the two of them were silent at the same time!
Because the proposal that Xiao Chen had just said was, to be honest, very reliable.
First, Xiao Chen would become an unofficial disciple of both of them. That way, he would not take up the position of their direct disciple, and he would also be able to see if Xiao Chen could really achieve brilliant results on both paths. If he couldn’t, he could switch to one of the paths, as long as he was focused and focused.
It was okay to be serious and focused, lest after directly becoming a pro-disciple, he found that he could not keep up with the time and energy to study both paths at the same time. At that time, it would inevitably be a pity. Therefore, after thinking about it, Elder Zhang and Old Ghost nodded and agreed.
“This is also acceptable. There is still close to a hundred years before the assessment of your batch of new disciples will end. Let’s use a hundred years as the deadline. In this hundred years, the two of us will teach you at the same time. If you can keep up with the study of both paths at the same time, then after a hundred years, you will directly become our pro-disciple. If it is really not possible, then we will see which path you have the most talent in, and then choose who to worship as your master!”
“Thank you, masters!
This disciple will do his best to live up to the high expectations of the two masters! ”
When Xiao Chen heard this, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief and then bowed to Elder Zhang and Old Ghost.
After all, acknowledging two masters at the same time was indeed a little too inconceivable. But now that the two of them had actually agreed, it was enough to show that Elder Zhang and Old Ghost truly liked him!
Although Xiao Chen acknowledged them as his master in order to find someone to rely on in the sect, he was not a cold and heartless person. Elder Zhang and Old Man Gui had made such a big concession on the matter of acknowledging him as their master. This kind of friendship naturally moved Xiao Chen. Therefore, at this moment, Xiao Chen had already made up his mind in his heart. In the future, he would definitely work very hard to learn the Art of Alchemy and professional Dao of Formations!
He had always been an affectionate and righteous person. If others treated him well, he would naturally return the favor tenfold or a hundredfold. Not to mention, if one’s attainments in alchemy and the Dao of Arrays were high, it would be easier for him to mingle in the Immortal World. There was no reason for him to refuse.
“Good, I hope you can really do what you say and don’t let us down!”
When Elder Zhang and Old Ghost heard that Xiao Chen had changed the way he addressed them, both of their faces showed some gratification.
Immediately after, Elder Zhang and Old Ghost said, “Although it’s only a registered disciple now, with our status, even if it’s only a registered disciple, we still have to announce it to the sect. Later, we will choose a good day to announce it!
Although it’s only a registered disciple, we can’t let you down! ”
“This …” Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment because he did not expect that the two of them would say that. Or perhaps it was because he knew too little about the rules of the sect. For famous elders like Elder Zhang and Old Ghost, when they accepted a disciple, they would announce it so that everyone would know who was their disciple.
However, Xiao Chen suddenly thought of something. Although he wanted to find a backer so that it would be easier for him to get along, he did not want to be so high profile. The tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. This was a principle that he still understood.
The nail that sticks out will be the nail that sticks out. He was suddenly accepted as a registered disciple by two elders at the same time. If this was announced, it would definitely cause an uproar in the sect and attract the attention of everyone and the elders. At that time, it was not necessarily a good thing for him.
Therefore, without any hesitation, Xiao Chen said directly, “Master, this is not necessary, right?”
“Huh?
Why? “Elder Zhang and Old Ghost were also stunned for a moment and then looked at Xiao Chen.
“This disciple does not want to attract too much attention. Both of you surely understand that it is not a good thing to be too high profile. If the news of both of you accepting a disciple as a disciple were to spread out, you can imagine what would happen.
You can imagine what will happen. This will push the disciple to the teeth of the storm! ”
Xiao Chen smiled awkwardly and did not explain too much. However, he believed that with the wisdom and experience of Elder Zhang and Old Ghost, they would certainly understand what he meant in an instant.
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Elder Zhang and Old Ghost were silent for a while, then they nodded and said, “What you said makes sense, and you’ve thought it through. It’s not like no one has ever accepted a disciple before, but this is the first time in the sect. If this gets out, it will indeed be too high profile, and it won’t be good for your cultivation!”
“Yes, it is good that Master can understand!” Xiao Chen nodded repeatedly.
“Haha, even if that’s the case, we still have to make an announcement. However, let’s let Old Ghost announce that he has accepted you as a registered disciple. No matter what, you are now a disciple of both of us. You still have to fight for some things in the Sect. Although the status of a registered disciple is not that precious, you can still obtain a certain amount of authority and benefits in the Sect!” Elder Zhang laughed again and changed the topic.
“You don’t have to say anymore. This is something that must be announced, because it represents some of your speaking rights and status in the sect in the future. Just let Old Ghost announce it alone, and it won’t cause too much of a stir.
Furthermore, don’t think that our Contribution Points can be transferred to you without limit. This is not allowed in the sect unless you have made a huge contribution. Otherwise, the amount of Contribution Points we can give you will be very little!
Everything depends on you. After becoming a registered disciple, it will be much more convenient for you to do things! “Elder Zhang looked at Xiao Chen’s hesitant expression and said lightly.
Xiao Chen could hear the determination in Elder Zhang’s words, so he had no choice but to say no more. After all, it would not cause too much of a stir if Elder Gui announced that he would be accepted as a registered disciple. It was just that being accepted as a disciple by an Elder, and a registered disciple at that, was quite common in the sect.
