Chapter 230 Disciple
Chapter 230 Disciple
"Do you have anything to say?"
"Junior brother..." Jun Ning next to him called out to Bai Wenche.
Bai Wenche came back to his senses at this point, and when he looked up he saw the Grand Elder looking at him, obviously asking him a question.
"Replying to Uncle Master... Jiang Jinfeng is still alive, and his life plate has not been completely broken, which means that he is now... I wonder if it is -"
Tao Yin interrupted him and said, "Junior brother, we understand your feelings, but you also know the current situation, and since it involves the seal, it is never too cautious."
He is the sect leader, so naturally he has to consider the affairs of the entire sect. His disciple Bai Wenche is very important, and the safety of his sect's disciples' lives is also very important.
If his disciple encountered such a thing, he would also be anxious, but he just couldn't do it.
Tao Yin hadn't said anything yet. Based on the reports from several sects and the wording of the remaining disciples from the Xian Sect, he even felt that Jiang Jinfeng was suspected of having an affair with a demon cultivator - Jiang Jinfeng really left a bad impression on him.
Originally, he had caused trouble in the sect before, and every time he punished Jiang Jinfeng, he looked lightly, and Jiang Xiuyuan helped to cover it. At that time, Bai Wenche often traveled, and he was concerned about his good relationship with his junior brother. In addition, other people were not allowed to interfere in the teaching of disciples. This was an unwritten rule in the world of cultivation.
There are so many social conventions that he has to turn a blind eye to them. The other party keeps hanging around in front of him, which makes him feel very upset. In his eyes, Jiang Jinfeng is like a hot potato. He has long noticed that this nephew is not very straightforward.
Later, Lu Wensheng suddenly appeared. There is always someone stronger than him. He finally didn't have to be blind. In fact, it really went according to his idea - although Jiang Jinfeng seemed to have changed before the incident, he still maintained a skeptical attitude. After all, there is a saying that goes, a dog will always eat shit. What if he is holding it back for a big one?
Now that he can't come back, it can be considered as clearing the door for his junior brother. It's just that his junior brother feels sorry for him. Hey, both of his direct disciples are gone, and he's back to the time before liberation. If he were to say, with his junior brother's personality, he'd better not accept any disciples and just pack up and go traveling.
But now that things have come to this, with his two direct disciples gone, Tao Yin couldn't bear to hurt his junior brother's feelings anymore, so he didn't mention that possibility - if it was true that Jiang Jinfeng colluded with the demons, it would be a disgrace to his junior brother.
His junior brother didn't deserve such a crime!
The conduct of these disciples nowadays is really such that some will die of drought, some will die of flood.
Jun Ning also added: "Whether he is really alive or not... the sect will not send anyone to look for him."
Bai Wenche knew that this was also for the good of the sect, but he only had this one disciple, so how could he know if he didn't try? He looked at the Grand Elder almost pleadingly.
"...Build a tomb for this child. The devil cultivators are cunning and must be guarded against."
The words of the Supreme Elder put the final nail in the coffin on the matter—regardless of whether Jiang Jinfeng was dead or alive, he was “dead” at this moment.
Bai Wenche was distracted for a while, but finally admitted: "Yes, nephew knows."
----------
Jin Jianxian came out of seclusion, but it was not a breakthrough to a great realm, so it did not cause any unusual phenomena. As the saying goes, self-confidence comes from strength, and the improvement of his cultivation also gave him some courage.
He subconsciously ran to the Discipline Hall, wanting to share something with Lu Wensheng. He couldn't clearly explain what he wanted to share. Looking at the plaque on the door of the Discipline Hall, he hesitated for a long time before entering, and looked around cautiously.
(The people you subconsciously think of when sharing your emotions are mostly those who will accept your emotions and give feedback.)
"Please, is Junior Brother Lu here?"
A disciple from the Discipline Hall passing by said, "Brother Jin, are you out of retreat? Brother Lu has gone down the mountain to gain experience, but if you have anything, you can contact him directly."
"Okay, okay, I understand."
After walking out of the Discipline Hall, Jin Jianxian was a little confused for a moment. Suddenly he received a message from his master asking him to come over. He was shocked and hurried over immediately - his master had never specifically asked him to go before, so he wondered if something big had happened.
Jin Jianxian worked very hard during his retreat this time, and his cultivation level from the middle stage of foundation building was directly completed. Tao Yin, who summoned him, was amazed when he saw his disciple's cultivation level.
It is not common for direct disciples to cross two small realms in succession, but it is not that rare either. However, the one who did it was Jin Jianxian.
He was somewhat surprised that the second disciple, who usually did not leave any deep impression on him, actually had such ability. Apart from Liu Jiqian and Lu Wensheng who were like rockets, the ones who broke through to a smaller realm were Ji Yanli and Jiang Jinfeng. As for Jiang Jinfeng, Bai Wenche had been preparing for him for a long time.
But who are they? Liu Jiqian is the grandson of the Grand Elder and the most gifted disciple in the world of cultivation. Lu Wensheng is Jun Ning's direct disciple and future successor. Ji Yanli is the disciple he has high hopes for...
This second disciple had not asked him for anything before he went into seclusion. He never expected that he actually had such potential. It turned out that this disciple of his was a hidden talent.
When did it start? Tao Yin couldn't help wondering - but he found that he didn't have any information about this second disciple, as if he had never paid attention to anything.
If Ji Yanli and Song Wen hadn't gone down the mountain to gain experience, he wouldn't even have paid attention to Jin Jianxian - Tao Yin was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, suddenly realizing that he seemed to have ignored Jin Jianxian.
The eldest disciple is the future sect leader, so he has to teach him with all his heart. Ji Yanli's affairs cannot go wrong. The young disciple Song Wen is a worry. He has great talent but his mind is scattered. If he doesn't hold on to him, he is afraid that he will be buried.
What about Jin Jianxian? Obedient, reserved and worry-free, this was all Tao Yin's impression of his second disciple.
But when did being obedient and worry-free become a reason for him to let his disciples go? As a master, how could he teach his disciples if he couldn't make them feel fair and valued?
Although for various reasons, it is undeniable that he pays more attention to and devotes more to his eldest and youngest disciples than to his second disciple - so he is a biased master, this is a fact and he cannot argue with it.
"Disciple pays homage to Master."
Looking at Jin Jianxian, who was cautious, respectful, and reserved, Tao Yin sat in his seat, but felt that the distance between the master and the apprentice was very far...
Ji Yanli found him respectful but not submissive, and his manners were generous and natural. Song Wen found him relaxed and casual, and liked to make jokes, but Jin Jianxian found him cautious, as if he would be subjected to thundering wrath if he made any mistake.
He had never been harsh on his disciples, which caused Jin Jianxian to be distant and cautious towards him... It was the unknown, the distance, or perhaps it was the desire to get closer - the longing.
To Jin Jianxian, he was a familiar yet extremely unfamiliar person.
(I just remembered that I haven’t explained the relationship between several high-level people clearly. The Grand Elder is the junior brother of Tao Yin and his master. Tao Yin and his master is the ancestor who gave up the immortal path to seal the demons during the immortal-demon war. The Grand Elder’s son, Liu Jiqian’s father, is of the same generation as Tao Yin and his friends. Tao Yin is the eldest brother, Gu Yulan is the second, Jun Ning is the third, Mu Jin is the fourth, and Bai Wenche is the youngest.)
(Tao Yin didn’t realize it suddenly, someone else mentioned it. He had no ill will towards Jin Jianxian, and he was not maliciously biased or deliberately ignoring him. When he really realized the problem, he would definitely be willing to change it - the relationship between master and disciple is not as simple as imagined. The disciple is the inheritor of the mantle, whether good or bad.
For example, when he goes shopping, the three disciples all share a share, but he will pay attention to whether the eldest disciple eats according to the standards of the heir, and whether the youngest disciple makes food everywhere when eating.
The most outstanding child will be given a few points, and the crying child will get candy. People are naturally biased and there will always be favoritism. However, how to make it "fair and square" in a personal subjective sense is a compulsory course that qualified elders must always study.)
(Jin Jianxian hasn't appeared in a long time. If you give him some roles, he will grow up. Jin Jianxian is a good boy, so I am willing to pour my loving soul into him at the tip of my pen. His growth and story are my partiality to him.)
