Chapter 290: Instructions

"I heard that when Wang Yu first entered the sect, you personally met him, and even becoming a Vermilion Bird Mountain inner sect disciple was personally allowed by you." Ancestral Elder Tianchan did not answer the question asked by Ancestral Elder Elder Li Huo, but asked one back.

"There is such a thing. It seems Brother has already investigated this child, and he really wasn't accepted as a registered disciple casually." A calm voice of Ancestral Elder Elder Li Huo came from the blue statue.

"I heard that the reason Fellow Daoist Elder Li Huo met Wang Yu was because of his wind-fire spirit root. If I remember correctly, the demon core of that Two-Headed Ghost-Faced Dove of yours was also wind-fire attribute?

After this spiritual bird fell, you also placed one of its talent feathers in the Scripture Pavilion, and it seems it was also taken by Wang Yu." Ancestral Elder Tianchan said lightly.

"Brother, what exactly do you want to say?" The voice of Ancestral Elder Elder Li Huo within the blue statue suddenly deepened.

"Nothing, this little fellow saved Mei'er's life after all. I just hope you can give me some face and abandon your original idea." Ancestral Elder Tianchan looked at the blue statue and said slowly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Ancestral Elder Elder Li Huo within the blue statue fell silent.

The Heavenly Toad Ancestor narrowed his eyes, and the miniature golden toad perched on his shoulder also fixed its glowing green eyes upon the blue statue.

"Hehe, it seems Brother misunderstood. The reason I did this was actually just to find a feeding disciple for that spiritual bird of mine. After all, only with the same wind-fire spirit root would that Ghost-Faced Dove let outsiders approach. Now that this spiritual bird has fallen, naturally I won't consider this matter again." After the blue statue's eyes flickered a few times, a chuckle came from within again.

"If that's the case, that's naturally the best. Once that Nine-Origin Life-Saving Pill is refined, I will notify you immediately." Hearing this, Ancestral Elder Tianchan also revealed a smile on his face.

"Then I will trouble Brother Ximen. This brother will take his leave first." The blue statue cupped its hands, walked a few steps toward a corner, and the next moment a misty array diagram phantom appeared at its feet, and its figure disappeared.

Seeing this, Ancestral Elder Tianchan flicked his sleeve toward where Wang Yu and the other were.

The white light curtain that had originally shrouded the two of them immediately collapsed and dissipated.

"Master."

"Shibo."

Wang Yu and the red-haired man hurriedly stepped forward and stood bowing.

"Wang Yu, you reported the clues about the Refining Moon Mirror this time, plus the matter of that cyan wind wolf cub just now. This old man said he would reward you. What reward do you want?" Ancestral Elder Tianchan asked noncommittally.

"This disciple knows that my spirit root aptitude is not too good, so I hope Master can reward me with some pills to increase cultivation." Hearing this, Wang Yu was overjoyed and replied without hesitation.

"You do have self-knowledge.

Pills to increase cultivation and magic power are good, but they are prone to accumulating more pill toxins. This is also why the eleventh and twelfth levels of Qi Refinement no longer increase cultivation, but only purify magic power. Moreover, if you take too many cultivation pills in the early stage, you will have to spend quite a bit of time polishing your magic power and expelling pill toxins later, otherwise the probability of Foundation Establishment will only become lower and lower.

For us immortal cultivators, the magic power cultivated bit by bit by ourselves is the most perfect. It's just that where in this world is there an immortal cultivator who doesn't take pills? Since you have made this request, this old man will naturally satisfy it.

This bottle contains three 'Green Water Pills' that I obtained in my early years. Each one can be worth several years of your bitter cultivation." Ancestral Elder Tianchan said, flipped his hand, and a light yellow medicine bottle appeared in his hand, which he threw over directly.

"Many thanks to Master for the reward."

Wang Yu joyfully caught the medicine bottle.

Although Ancestral Elder Tianchan's previous words were very reasonable, if he couldn't even practice to the Qi Refinement Perfection realm and couldn't break through the Foundation Establishment bottleneck at the best age, what was the use of having perfect magic power? He couldn't wait until he was fifty or sixty to try that even more hopeless Foundation Establishment bottleneck.

"Since you just obtained two parts of the Green Light Armor dharma artifact, I happen to have one in my hand, so I will reward you with it as well." After pondering for a moment, Ancestral Elder Tianchan took out a green misty arm armor from his sleeve and threw it over as well.

"Many thanks to Master."

Wang Yu caught the arm armor, overjoyed, and thanked him repeatedly.

He never expected that the third part of the Green Light Armor would be in his hands so quickly.

"Wang Yu, this old man has given the rewards that should be given. Listen carefully to the words below." Ancestral Elder Tianchan said with a sudden chill in his expression.

"This disciple listens respectfully to Master's instructions."

Wang Yu felt a chill and hurriedly bowed.

"First, although you became a registered disciple of this old man by chance, before Foundation Establishment, without special reasons, this old man will not see you a second time, and you are not allowed to actively publicize this matter." Ancestral Elder Tianchan said slowly.

"This disciple understands."

Wang Yu replied without thinking.

"Second, Mei'er has already been promised to someone else, and this marriage also involves the relationship between the Thousand Bamboo Sect and our sect. Therefore, from now on, before she marries, you are not allowed to see her again. Do you understand what I mean?" Ancestral Elder Tianchan said expressionlessly.

"This disciple and Lin Lin Shijie Ximen have no..." Wang Yu was startled and hurriedly opened his mouth to explain something.

"I don't care if you like Mei'er or if Mei'er likes you. I'm just asking if you can do this." Ancestral Elder Tianchan said impatiently.

"Since Master does not like this disciple and Lin Lin Shijie Ximen to meet, this disciple will naturally not go to see her again in the future." After Wang Yu's thoughts turned rapidly for a few rounds, he still agreed.

Although he had quite a good impression of Ximen Mei, to say he liked her was probably far from it, so he didn't have too much hesitation.

"Very good. If you can do the above two things, after Foundation Establishment, I will consider accepting you as a true disciple." Seeing this, Ancestral Elder Tianchan's expression softened.

Wang Yu was stunned. This seemed a bit different from what was said at the beginning. Could the promise of accepting a disciple be changed at any time?

Although he had a fair amount of affection for Ximen Mei, to say he was in love with her would be far from the truth, so he did not hesitate much.

"You can leave now. Call Gu Fei in."

Ancestral Elder Tianchan just tilted his head to look at the golden toad, waved his hand at Wang Yu, signaling that he could go out.

"Then this disciple will take his leave first."

Wang Yu bowed again and respectfully exited the stone house.

The Heavenly Toad Ancestor merely tilted his head to glance at the golden toad, then waved his hand at Wang Yu, signaling that he could leave.

"Shibo is too polite. This disciple is still just a Qi Refinement disciple. How dare I address Shibo as a fellow disciple?" Hearing this, Wang Yu hurriedly cupped his hands and replied.

"Wang Wang Shidi is already under the Golden Core ancestral elder, so it is very normal to address each other as fellow disciples. As for Foundation Establishment, that is just a matter of time." The red-haired man said with a smile.

"Cough... Then this junior will thank Gu Li Shixiong for your auspicious words. By the way, Master is calling Gu Li Shixiong in." Wang Yu coughed lightly, followed the other party's words, and really addressed the red-haired man in front of him as "Li Li Shixiong". ===== CHAPTER 291 =====

"You are too kind, Uncle-Master. This disciple is still only a Qi Refinement disciple; how could I dare to address you as a peer?" Wang Yu replied hurriedly, cupping his hands upon hearing this.

"Since Wang Wang Shidi is already under the tutelage of a Golden Core Ancestor, is it not perfectly normal to address each other as peers? As for Foundation Establishment, that is only a matter of time," the red-haired man said with a smile.

"Ahem... then this junior brother thanks Gu Li Shixiong for his kind words. By the way, Teacher is currently summoning Gu Li Shixiong inside." Wang Yu gave a light cough and, following the other's lead, truly addressed the red-haired man before him as "Li Li Shixiong."
