249 No Name
Just as the fire dragon was about to crash into the barrier, the eldest disciple of the Sect Master suddenly appeared and used a spell technique to stop the fire dragon.
The eldest disciple of the Sect Master waved his hand casually, and the fire dragon dissipated in the air.
“This round, Dong Xi wins!” The eldest disciple of the Sect Master immediately said.
Dong Xi left the ring and saluted Zhuang Sheng. Dong Xi said, “Senior Brother, you let me win!”
Zhuang Sheng smiled bitterly. “Junior Sister, I didn’t go easy on you this time. It’s your move that’s too powerful. I don’t dare to take it. What’s your move called?”
Dong Xi said, “I got this move by chance. It doesn’t have a name. Today is the first time I’ve tried it. If I’ve offended you, please forgive me.”
Zhuang Sheng shook his head and said, “We’re just sparring, so don’t worry about that. Junior Sister’s strength has really shocked me. I’ve lost today. I’ll spar with you again in the future. Goodbye.”
Dong Xi watched Zhuang Sheng leave and was about to leave as well when she was stopped by the head disciple.
“Don’t leave, Junior Sister Dong Xi, the Sect Master has invited you to see him,” the eldest disciple of the Sect Master said.
Dong Xi frowned and thought to herself, ‘Do disciples have to tell the sect what moves they know? With so many disciples out traveling, couldn’t they have some opportunities?’
Thinking of this, Dong Xi felt a little frustrated. Although she was frustrated, she still had to go.
Seeing how the Sect Master had promised to summon the souls of the disciples, Dong Xi still admired the Sect Master.
Dong Xi followed the eldest disciple of the Sect Master and came to the Sect Master’s cave abode again.
As soon as the two of them arrived, Sect Master Wei Nan also returned to the cave.
“Little Xi,” Wei Nan immediately said. “Do you know why I asked you to come?”
Dong Xi lowered her head and said honestly, “I don’t know.”
Wei Nan waved his hand, and a tea set appeared on the table. Wei Nan asked Dong Xi to sit down and poured her some tea. Wei Nan said, “Little Xi, where did you learn that movement technique you just used?”
Dong Xi held the teacup and immediately frowned. Seeing Dong Xi’s expression, Wei Nan smiled and said, “The sect doesn’t want to know your secrets. Everyone will have their own opportunities. I understand, but… Do you know who this movement technique belonged to?”
Dong Xi was taken aback. She looked at the Sect Master in front of him, but Dong Xi shook her head.
Dong Xi had a feeling in her heart that this time, the identity of the portrait artist would be revealed.
Dong Xi’s feeling was right. Wei Nan took a sip of tea, and Wei Nan continued, “This movement technique is our Founding Master’s movement technique, it’s called ‘Ethereal’. At that time, our ancestor also used this movement technique and the ‘Void Sword Technique’ to conquer the world of Immortal cultivators. Unfortunately… This movement technique and sword technique disappeared after the founder Ascended.”
Dong Xi was speechless.
Dong Xi had thought of all the possibilities, but she had never thought that this would actually be the Founding Master’s!
“Little Xi,” Wei Nan continued, “can you tell me where you learned it?”
Dong Xi bit her lip and said with a complicated expression, “Sect Master, you might not believe it, but I kowtowed in the Cultivation Technique Hall.”
Dong Xi did not have anything to hide. The Grandmaster’s portrait was in the Cultivation Technique Hall. It was originally meant to teach disciples. It was not as if others could not learn it just because Dong Xi could.
Dong Xi told the Sect Master about how she had gone to the Cultivation Technique Hall and how she had seen the door open.
Dong Xi said, “After entering, I saw a portrait on it. The person in the portrait looked very powerful. I thought he was a senior of the sect. I kowtowed and then walked in.”
Wei Nan’s expression was very strange. Wei Nan had been the Sect Master for a few hundred years, but this was the first time he had heard someone say that the Cultivation Technique Hall would open on its own without a password.
However, Dong Xi did not look like she was lying. Wei Nan smiled and said, “The Grandmaster’s legacy probably thinks highly of you, so he took the initiative to find you. Don’t feel any burden. In the future, if you need anything, just come to me.”
Coming out from the Sect Master’s place, Dong Xi held the communication jade slip and smiled helplessly. There was one more Big Shot in her address book.
That’s good. In the future, if Dong Xi had to trouble the Sect Master, she would not feel embarrassed. As soon as Dong Xi returned to the cave, her Master’s voice transmission talisman came.
Dong Xi sighed softly. She knew that even if she avoided it today, she would not be able to avoid tomorrow, so she directly went to her Master’s cave.
When Dong Xi arrived, she found that not only her Master, but her eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother were also there. The three of them were looking at her with their arms crossed.
Dong Xi instinctively took a step back. She said, “Master, Senior Brothers, you…”
As the representative, Song Qingfeng said, “Junior Sister, how do you know techniques from the Central Plains? Have you been possessed?”
“Since Senior Brother says so, how should I prove that I’m not possessed?” Dong Xi frowned. “Should I… talk about what happened with the fruit? That’s something only I know about.”
