Chapter 523

/*unedited*/

A group of 12 people is currently standing in front of three figures while another group of young women carefully carries an unconscious person towards a building.

Shin Jiao and his group are under the scrutiny of the old and middle-aged people in front of them.

"I am the vice sect leader of the Lotus Sect, and these two are the representatives of Divine Cloud Sect, and Blood Moon Sect." the man said as he introduces the two middle-age men beside him.

"Hmm… weird… but I guess this is the reason why the vice sect leader got his eyes on you." The representative of the Divine Cloud Sect said with a smile while looking at Shin Jiao.

"Hey, if it isn't Gu Guxhing… is this young lad with you?" an old man said while walking towards Gu Guxhing.

The old man looks old but the aura in his body is as strong as the vice sect leader of the Lotus Sect. Shin Jiao was even surprised to see the old man.

This is because when he didn't focus his attention on him, he actually could not sense his presence and even the aura in his body.

"This is another old monster." Shin Jiao thought as he looks at the old man.

He knew that anyone of these people could be a threat to him. Although he is already comparable to a nascent realm in the late stages, he is still not that confident that he would be able to defeat any of these people in front of him.

Gu Guxhing upon seeing the old man immediately beamed with a huge smile on his face.

"Ah, old master… this lowly one greets you. This is my young friend. His name is Si Ji." Gu Guxhing takes this opportunity to introduce Shin Jiao.

Then Gu Guxhing looks at the haughty young man beside him and showed an awkward smile. This is because he didn't know who the young lad is.

"You are the youngest child of that fellow from the Mind Space Sect, right? Are you here to join another sect?" a tall and slender woman wearing a maroon gown with a phoenix hairpin on her head and a white veil on her face.

When the rest of the people heard her words, they all look at the young man with interest.

"Haha… now I know why the three of you look different. This group is a group of promising youths." A middle-aged man suddenly exclaimed.

"I think it would be best if this young lad joins our sect."

"How about this, young Guxhing. Why don't you join my sect?"

"…"

The 12 people began to talk as if they are trying to bid to buy some valuable goods. The 12 of them already knew just by looking at the strength of the three in front of them, that the two with Shin Jiao has exceptional talent.

"Alright, calm down… I know that it's rare to see some talented young people. But we cannot be this rash. You have to make these young people make their choices." The vice sect leader of the Lotus sect said.

Everyone calms down and just looks at the three people.

Being looked at by powerful figures made the hearts of Shin Jiao, and the two with him, felt a bit of pressure. 

In this awkward situation, the first to speak was Gu Guxhing.

"Seniors, this is truly an honor of a lifetime… I have been a rogue cultivator all of my life. And since young, I have always idolized the Great Beast Sect. However, I started a family but then by some twist of fate lost my wife and child. And now that I have a second chance… I would like to once again have this chance to enter the sect… that is if the esteemed elder… will accept this lowly one." Gu Guxhing said as he cupped his hand and lowered his head towards the old man in front of him.

The old man showed a contented smile on his face. This is because he has always watched and interacted with Gu Guxhing in the city. And he saw that the man has a promising future. However, the old man noticed at that time that Gu Guxhing's mind seems clouded and troubled. Hence the old man just decided to be a helping hand for him until he was able to get back on his feet.

And a strange friendship was formed.

"Haha… of, of course, my young friend…" the old man said with a smile while patting Gu Guxhing's broad shoulders.

While the two are talking the eyes of the haughty young man is looking at the vice sect leader of the Lotus sect.

"Vice Sect Leader, My… my name is Shibai Wing. I… I would like to join the Lotus Sect." the haughty young man said but this time his haughty attitude is now gone as he is currently lowering his head towards the vice sect leader.

"Hmm… I heard that you are a promising talent. However, we have already agreed to accept only one student. And I already have my eyes on this young man here."

When Shibai Wing heard this, his fist clenched as he didn't want to give up. In truth, his dream is to enter the top sect in the Yi kingdom, the Lotus Sect. This is because that is where one of the strongest and youngest genius cultivators came from, Crown Princess Cherry Lao.

But it seems that his dream would not come true.

"Hmm… Well, if the vice sect leader wanted to accept this guy, you actually can." Shin Jiao said with a respectful bow.

"In truth, I am not here to enter any sect. I just wanted to use the gate as it is the fastest way to enter the city. Plus, that young woman from before truly needed help, that's why I acted on impulse… If I offended any of the masters in here, please do forgive my impertinence." Shin Jiao said.

Upon hearing his words, everyone in the area was dumbfounded. They never expected such a response from a young fellow. However, what he said seems to be a bit reasonable.

"Tell, me… why do you seek to enter the city?" the vice sect leader asked.

"It's because I am looking for someone…" Shin Jiao said.

"Hmm… alright, I will accept your answer. However, due to the things that you did, I would like to punish you, as this is the first time that the rules in this gate were violated… I'm guessing that you are not from around here so you are not aware of the rules."

"Yes…"

"One of the rules stated that no one should open the celestial gate unless they are willing to join a sect. If not, then they would be punished severely."

Upon hearing this rule, Shin Jiao looks at the two of his companions. The two are still looking at him like he was an idiot.

"Haha… I see… so my conjecture is correct. Now, I will give you a chance. If you can resist my pressure, then I will let you go. But if you cannot, then you will have no objection but to join my Lotus sect. This is my condition." The vice sect leader said.

"Wait a minute. I think vice sect leader is a bit overboard… how can a mere gold core realm resist your pressure? This is unfair. Why not let him choose which sect he wanted to join." The middle-aged from the Divine Cloud sect protested.

This was seconded by the rest of the group, except for the old man where Gu Guxhing is already standing behind him.

"Hmm… Alright, alright…" the vice sect leader said while chuckling for a bit.

Suddenly, from the corner, Shin Jiao noticed something.

Using his contact lens, he began scanning the man wearing a red robe. This middle-aged man is the representative of the Blood Moon sect. He suddenly noticed that the man seems to have the same traces of spiritual residue that he found in the clues that he got while trying to trace Susan Tang.

This made him feel that he might have discovered something. Hence he decided to look at the middle-aged man. Feeling his scrutiny, the man looks at Shin Jiao with his red semi glowing eyes.

"Young man, do you have something to ask of me?" the man asked with a smile.

Shin Jiao noticed that the man actually have two sharp fangs.

"Beastman?" he thought.

However, his mind has already changed and decided to enter the Blood Moon Sect. The clues pointed towards that sect, so he will go in and investigate.

"Excuse me… Pardon me, seniors… I am sorry for being too rash about my decision a while ago. I was just too worked up in finding someone that I never realized my mistake… I'm sorry..." Shin Jiao said.

"I will accept any punishment given by the masters…" he added while cupping his hands.

The people look at each other and showed a faint smile on their faces.

"Haha… alright, it's still the same. I will be the one to punish you…" the vice sect leader said with a smile on his face.

He then took a step back and distances himself from Shin Jiao. This is because he wanted to make sure that he will not kill the young man as he truly finds him to be a good seed.

And before everyone's eyes, the vice sect leader suddenly extended his hand and a strong spiritual pressure suddenly envelops Shin Jiao's body. The man closes his eyes and concentrated to control his aura and domain.

Then he opens his eyes and a glint of silver light appears.
