When Ji Meng saw the teenager following behind Fang Xuan, she immediately revealed a look of love.
Before, Ji Meng had never seen Ye Xiu, but Ye Xiu's name had already resounded throughout the entire Five Elements Sect, so she was extremely curious about him.
But now that she had seen Ye Xiu's face with her own eyes, she was not disappointed at all. This gave her even more of a motivation to get to know Ye Xiu.
Yan Xiang looked at Ye Xiu's expression that seemed to like it, and his expression became serious, as if he was going to eat something.
Of course, Yan Xiang hid this very well, so neither Ji Meng nor anyone else discovered it.
"Ye Xiu!"
Just as Ji Meng straightened her twin peaks that filled her with confidence was about to walk towards Ye Xiu, Ling Zhen led her to walk towards him with a smile on his face.
Seeing the Clan Master welcoming Ye Xiu back personally, Ji Meng naturally stopped in her tracks. She was an established disciple of the Five Elements Sect, so she naturally clearly understood what it meant to be personally received by the Sect Master.
"Seems like the reason the Sect Leader gathered us at the Training Field today is related to Ye Xiu." Ji Meng muttered.
"That's for sure. Ye Xiu and Fang Xuan combined to protect such an important treasure like the Profound Crystal for the Five Elements Sect, especially Ye Xiu. It's said that if it wasn't for Ye Xiu's help, the Profound Crystal would have been destroyed beyond a doubt." Yan Xiang shouted from Ji Meng's side.
"Hehe, what a mysterious little fellow. The more mysterious it is, the more I like it." Ji Meng chuckled.
As he spoke, Ji Meng's gaze sized Ye Xiu up without holding back, as if he wanted to swallow him whole.
"Master, it seems like you have already become the focal point for your Five Elements Sect. All these gazes, especially that girl over there, has reached the perfection-stage of the Profound Pill Realm and her eyes are extremely hot, as if she wanted to swallow you alive."
When Ye Xiu followed Ling Zhen to the front of the Training Field, Ye Long's voice came out.
There were naturally males and females among the disciples of the Five Elements Sect, so many female disciples looked at Ye Xiu with eyes filled with worship. Even if Ye Xiu was their junior brother, they would still look at him with admiration.
"Oh?"
Hearing Ye Long's words, Ye Xiu's gaze turned towards Yan Xiang, and after looking, their gazes immediately intertwined.
When Ji Meng saw that Ye Xiu seemed to be looking at her, she pouted her lips and looked at Ye Xiu. At the same time, her beautiful eyes blinked, as if she was secretly sending away Qiubo.
"I'll go ?"
Seeing that a beautiful lady standing beside Yan Xiang was winking at him, Ye Xiu could not help but shiver, because he was truly not able to endure such enticement.
Just like that, Ye Xiu immediately retracted his gaze and did not look towards Yan Xiang's direction.
"Senior Martial Brother Yan, look at that brat's reaction, he is only a naive young man, and facing this kind of person, I, Ji Meng can take down one hundred percent. Seeing Ye Xiu hurriedly retracting his gaze, Ji Meng's face was filled with a smile.
Obviously, Ye Xiu's reaction proved that he was an innocent teenager, and someone like this was the easiest to lure.
"Hehe, then congratulations to Junior Sister Ji on achieving her dream." Hearing Ji Meng's words, the expression on Yan Xiang's face became even more rich and obvious.
However, at this time, Ji Meng's gaze was completely focused on Ye Xiu, so naturally he did not notice the reaction of Yan Xiang who was standing beside him.
Just like this, under the gazes of everyone, Ye Xiu followed Ling Zhen and walked to the very front of the group, and even stood together with a few elders.
"What is the Sect Leader doing? Ye Xiu is just a new disciple, why is he standing there?"
"Why, just based on the fact that he saved the Five Elements Sect in time and protected the Profound Crystal with all his might, these two matters alone are considered the number one meritorious service of Five Elements Sect. If not for his low cultivation, I'm afraid that the Patriarch would have directly given him an elder."
"Tsk, I was just lucky. If I had met him, I would have been able to inform him."
"?"
When Ye Xiu, the two clan masters and the six elders stood together, the disciples who were standing on Training Field immediately started a flurry of discussion.
In truth, even Ye Xiu himself felt a bit uncomfortable, but since Ling Zhen was the one who brought him to this place, it was naturally not good for him to leave right now.
Therefore, the current Ye Xiu guessed in his heart what was the real reason Ling Zhen brought him here. Why did he have to place himself in front of everyone?
Could it be that in order to reward him with Profound Crystal s, he had to do his best to protect them in front of all the disciples in the Five Elements Sect?
But if it was just that, then this lineup was too big, so big that it made Ye Xiu a little uncomfortable.
"Alright, everyone quiet down. The reason why we gathered you all here today is because we have a very important matter to announce to everyone."
When everyone was whispering to each other, Ling Zhen's voice rang out.
"Important things?"
When the originally clamoring crowd heard Ling Zhen's words, curiosity surfaced in their eyes. However, almost everyone's gaze landed on Ye Xiu, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with the six elders.
Ye Xiu had been a little uncomfortable to begin with, but now that he had once again become the focus of everyone's attention, he felt even more uneasy.
"That's right, I want to announce something that is related to Ye Xiu. Presumably, all the disciples are clear that Ye Xiu saved the Profound Crystal for us using our injuries, and the Profound Crystal was extremely helpful to our cultivation. And before that, Ye Xiu had also contributed greatly to our Five Elements Sect, so after discussing with the six elders and the vice sect master, I decided to give Ye Xiu a bit of rewards." Ling Zhen said.
"Sect Leader, if you gather all of us together, then this reward shouldn't be a small amount, right?" Yan Xiang's voice came out from the crowd.
And following the sound of Yan Xiang's voice, everyone's gaze shifted from Ye Xiu to Ling Zhen. It was obvious that they were also curious about what kind of reward Ye Xiu would receive.
If it was just an ordinary reward, then there was no need to go all out and gather everyone.
"Ye Xiu, please come out."
After Yan Xiang finished asking, Ling Zhen asked while looking at him.
"Yes Sovereign!"
Ye Xiu replied as he hurriedly took two steps forward.
"I declare that from today onwards, Ye Xiu will be the seventh elder of my Five Elements Sect and will enjoy all the treatment provided to me by an elder." Ling Zhen announced in front of all the disciples with Five Elements Sect.
"What!"
As Ling Zhen's voice fell, in the next second, the entire Training Field resounded with a wave of shocked voices.
Ye Xiu had become a Five Elements Sect Elder, a new disciple whose cultivation was merely at the Great Perfection of Profound Qi Stage level, what right did he have to become a Five Elements Sect Elder?
To become a Five Elements Sect Elder, one had to have at least the Small Perfection of Profound Infant Stage. Ye Xiu's cultivation was far inferior to this requirement.
Of course, among the numerous disciples, the disciples who had reached the Profound Pill Realm had the strongest reaction.
This was because if Ye Xiu became an elder, his position in the Five Elements Sect would be much higher than theirs. In the future, they would even have to respectfully call each other Elder Ye when they met.
If this was any other disciple of the Profound Pill Realm, they would definitely oppose it.
Ye Xiu had indeed made a huge contribution to the Five Elements Sect, but no matter how much this contribution was, he wouldn't be able to become an elder.
The reason was simple, the clan's elders were the symbol of strength. If others were to know that the Five Elements Sect's elder was a brat with only Great Perfection of Profound Qi Stage, they would definitely laugh their heads off, and might even think that the strength of his Five Elements Sect was only this little, that he would be able to become an elder even with the strength of his Great Perfection of Profound Qi Stage.
"Everyone, quiet down, calm down."
As the voices of opposition became more and more intense, Ling Zhen had no choice but to shout out to suppress them.
Of course, even if their voices were suppressed, the disciples were not convinced. This was not a good thing for a sect.
"Sectmaster, your reward is a bit too big. An elder is the symbol of a sect's strength, and I'm not very qualified, so please retract your order." Ye Xiu stood up and said.
Becoming an elder would indeed bring many benefits to Ye Xiu, but if he was unable to convince others, then it would be fine if he did not become an elder.
Furthermore, Ye Xiu was more concerned with the improvement of his cultivation, he did not care about the power at all.
Therefore, in Ye Xiu's opinion, some of the treasures that could help him increase his cultivation was better than others.
"Ye Xiu, this is the result of our discussion with the six elders. This also means that you are qualified to become an elder." Ling Zhen said.
After speaking to Ye Xiu, Ling Zhen's gaze swept across a few disciples who had reached the peak of the Profound Pill Realm.
Amongst these disciples who had reached the peak of the Profound Pill Realm, Yan Xiang was naturally one of them.
Even Yan Xiang, who was considerably frightened by Ye Xiu, had a completely dissatisfied look on his face. It was because the reason he was scared was entirely because of the Fourth Level Profound Array Jade Chip that Fang Xuan gave him.
If Ye Xiu did not have this extremely dangerous Profound Array Jade Chip, even ten of them would not be able to scare Yan Xiang.
"Yan Xiang, you are the eldest senior brother of the Golden Gate Sect, tell me, what must Ye Xiu do in order for you to accept his status as an elder?" Ling Zhen looked at Yan Xiang and asked.
Even though he was suddenly asked, Yan Xiang still replied promptly: "Clan Master, please forgive my bluntness, Ye Xiu's cultivation is still shallow, if he becomes a Five Elements Sect Elder now, it would be hard to convince the masses."
"Yan Xiang, if Ye Xiu defeats you, is he qualified?" Ling Zhen suddenly said.
Ah!
Hearing that, Yan Xiang was shocked, and even the other disciples were shocked, because the cultivation difference between the two was too huge, and they were simply not on the same level.
