The next morning, Long Jun woke up early and practiced the Seven Door Lock Flame Technique. After washing up, he walked out of the courtyard.
The courtyard that Long Jun and the other ten people lived in was quite a distance away from the Fire Sect's main hall. Although Long Jun, who had cultivated the Qi Refining Art, walked much faster than ordinary people, it still took him two hours to reach the Fire Sect's main hall.
When they arrived at the main hall, Dongfang Yan was already sitting in it, and his 17 disciples were already lined up in the main hall.
When Long Jun entered the main hall, everyone was stunned. Whether it was Dongfang Yan, Zhu Can, Si Qi, or the other senior and junior brothers who had never seen Long Jun before, they were all stunned when they saw Long Jun, who had tied his long hair behind his head and was dressed in a fiery red robe.
Dongfang Yan was the first to come back to his senses. After all, he was already over a hundred years old. Even if he was absent-minded just now, it was only because he did not expect a man to be so handsome.
Long Jun, who had entered the hall, did not dare to be negligent. He bowed to Dongfang Yan, who was sitting at the head of the table, and said respectfully,""Disciple Long Jun greets Master."
"Haha, alright." Dongfang Yan looked at this disciple whom he was about to officially take in. Not only was he extremely talented, but he was also quite good-looking. He quickly said happily,""Long Jun, why aren't you greeting your senior brothers?”
Long Jun still listened to Dongfang Yan's words. Although he did not think it was necessary, he still arched his body slightly and said to the crowd indifferently,""Greetings, senior brothers."
Everyone was obviously not very satisfied with Long Jun's tone. Other than Si Qi replying, no one else threw him away. As the eldest senior brother, Zhu Can even snorted to show his dissatisfaction.
"Cough cough!" Dongfang Yan didn't care about this situation. Which peerless genius didn't have a strange temper? As long as this disciple respected him, it was fine.
After thinking about it, Dongfang Yan said to the disciples,""This time, I've called all of you here to announce something. Seeing Long Jun here, I'm sure all of you should know. That's right, I'll announce today that I've accepted Long Jun as my eighteenth official disciple.”
"Congratulations, Junior Brother." Si Qi congratulated Long Jun.
"Yes."
Long Jun also nodded at him. Although they weren't close, Si Qi gave Long Jun a good impression.
However, there were still people who were unhappy. Zhu Can said to Dongfang Yan,"But, Master, Long Jun's year of assessment hasn't ended yet. Wouldn't it be a little against the rules for you to officially take him in now?”
In fact, the main reason Zhu Can objected to this was the way Dongfang Yan looked at Long Jun. It was a look of fondness that came from the bottom of his heart. To Zhu Can, who had just received the Flame Expelling Art from Dongfang Yan not long ago, this was something he could not tolerate.
Dongfang Yan chuckled when he heard Zhu Can's objection.""The one-year assessment period is mainly to see if the new disciple can reach the assessment standards within a year. However, Long Jun's current strength has long exceeded the standards, so there is nothing against the rules. You don't have to worry about it.”
"Ah?"
Zhu Can cried out in shock and shouted in disbelief,"How is this possible?"
Although Zhu Can's behavior was somewhat rude, Dongfang Yan did not blame him. He only said rather proudly,""That's the truth. Other than the fact that he hasn't learned the actual cultivation method, in terms of the fire elemental energy in his body, Long Jun is already at the late stage of the Xiantian realm.”
Dongfang Yan obviously wouldn't lie, and there was no need for that. This time, not only Zhu Can, but even the other ten brothers, including Si Qi, exclaimed in disbelief.
Long Jun felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by these senior brothers who were looking at him with surprise.
"Now you should know why I want to take Long Jun in advance.”Dongfang Yan stroked his beard and said.
"Master is wise."
Although they did not like Long Jun and his attitude towards their Senior Brothers, these Fire Sect disciples had to admit that their Master had made the right decision in taking Long Jun as his disciple.
There were even a few disciples of the Fire Sect who had some foresight and wisdom who thought that the Fire Sect might surpass the other seven tribes in the future under the leadership of Long Jun, the eighteenth brother. It was also possible for the Fire Sect, which had always been suppressed by the other seven tribes, to hold their heads high.
Dongfang Yan looked at the reactions of these disciples. How could he not know what they were thinking? However, that was exactly what he had hoped for. He coughed lightly and took out a fiery red jade slip from his interspatial ring. With a gentle hand, the jade slip appeared in Long Jun's hand. He said,"Since it has been announced, Long Jun, this is the practical cultivation method of my Fire Sect. There are both physical techniques and spells inside. Take it and study it yourself. If you don't understand anything, come and ask me.”
"Yes, Master."
Long Jun, who had been officially taken into the door, tightened his grip on the fiery red jade slip in his hand. This was something that allowed him to control his own fate.
"Also, you're now an official disciple of the Fire Sect, so you can't stay here anymore. How about this, you can stay next to No. 17 for now.”
Dongfang Yan instructed again. The fact that he could think of the problem of accommodation meant that Dongfang Yan really cared about Long Jun. This also caused Zhu Can, the eldest disciple, to feel dissatisfied.
Dongfang Yan thought for a moment. After making sure that there was nothing else, he said to everyone,""Then that's it. You can all leave. Long Jun, don't go back to your original courtyard. Seventeen, take this Long Jun to his new residence to have a look.”
"Yes, Master." Si Qi replied respectfully.
"Alright, all of you can leave." Dongfang Yan waved at the crowd.
"Goodbye, Master."
The 18 senior brothers bowed to Dongfang Yan and left the Fire Sect's main hall one after another.
After all the disciples had left, there was a wave of fire elemental Qi around Dongfang Yan, and he disappeared from the Fire Sect's main hall.
。。。。。。
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, in a courtyard not far from the Fire Sect's main hall.
Si Qi pointed at a courtyard house with seven or eight rooms and said to Long Jun,""Junior Brother Long, this is your residence.”
After saying that, he pointed to a similar house next to him and said,"That's my house. If you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask me.”
Si Qi knew that for someone like Long Jun, perhaps he could only rely on the excuse of guiding him in cultivation to get in touch with him.
"Yes. Thank you."
Long Jun nodded lightly and did not say anything else. He would not reject any opportunity to increase his strength.
He didn't invite Si Qi into the house. After sending Si Qi away, Long Jun pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard of the house. He didn't even look at the rooms around him. Long Jun walked straight to the innermost room, pushed open the door, and walked in.
After entering the room, Long Jun quietly looked at the luxurious room and muttered,""From today onwards, this is my home.”
And this was also Long Jun's real home after he was forced to leave home seven years ago, a home that he acknowledged.
