Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class

Chapter 166 - I Think This Guest Elder Is Very Ordinary!



Chapter 166: I Think This Guest Elder Is Very Ordinary!

On the way to the main hall, Li Jingchen shared the procedures for the appointment ceremony with Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan noted down everything.

Even though he did not care about his status as a guest elder, he still had to cooperate with them for the required formalities.

Soon, they reached the hall.

For a time, everyone’s gaze was focused on Qin Chuan.

“He’s the new guest elder? Isn’t he a bit too young?!” The young girls were especially puzzled.

As a member of a martial arts family, everyone knew that once one cultivated martial arts to a certain realm, they could return to their youth, but not so significantly.

Most importantly, the aura of youth emanating from Qin Chuan was extremely natural. It was especially like that of a young man.

The representatives from the few other martial arts families that came over were all rather strong and had rich experiences. With a single glance, they could tell that Qin Chuan was indeed a young man.

Thus, they were even more baffled.

However, they were aware of the weight of a guest elder. They believed that the higher-ups of the Li family would not act recklessly.

Although this guest elder looked young and ordinary, his background was probably complicated.

Li Jingchen and the other elders escorted Qin Chuan to the center of the main hall.

The representatives from those families immediately went forward to congratulate him.

“Patriarch Li, congratulations!”

“Patriarch Li, congratulations!”

“Haha, thank you everyone for coming.”

Li Jingchen smiled and cupped his hands in return.

Then, Li Jingchen introduced them to Qin Chuan.

“I see that esteemed guest is valiant and heroic, fresh and handsome, his eyes bright and full of spirit, truly an outstanding person.” The person who spoke was an old man in a violet-colored robe.

He was from the Zi family, which was ranked last among the martial arts families in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. He would praise anyone he saw.

There was nothing he could do about it. His family was relatively weak, so he could only say good things.

Qin Chuan scrutinized the representatives from these family clans.

In terms of aura, they were much weaker than Li Jingchen. Nevertheless, they were all martial Grandmasters.

He, naturally, did not think much of them.

But in this low martial level world, Grandmasters were like superhumans to ordinary people.

A few minutes later, the appointment ceremony officially began.

Li Jingchen instructed his clansmen to bring out the wooden armchair that had been passed down for thousands of years.

This armchair had witnessed the rise and fall of the Li clan. It held special significance.

The armchair that had been passed down for over a thousand years was covered with traces of time. The surface of the chair was exceptionally red and shiny, just like red jade.

The Li clansmen gently placed the armchair in the middle of the hall.

“Great Master Qin, please take a seat,” Li Jingchen said respectfully.

Qin Chuan nodded and sat down.

It was a chair that had lasted for more than a thousand years. The feeling of sitting on it was indeed a little different. It was like sitting on a piece of warm jade, warm and comfortable.

After Qin Chuan sat down, Li Jingchen announced loudly, “The guest elder appointment ceremony officially begins!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the deafening crackling of firecrackers sounded outside. Then, the sound of gongs and drums followed. Everything seemed especially festive.

There was an altar outside the hall.

After the lighting of firecrackers was over, Li Jingchen and the elders came to the altar. They offered incense, paid their respects, and chatted for a long time.

Qin Chuan sat on his chair, and since he had nothing to do, he activated his divine consciousness to search for potential cultivators in the Li family clan.

Given that he was currently in the third class of Golden Core, his divine sense could completely cover the entire Li Clan Residence.

In an instant, all the Li Clan members entered Qin Chuan’s vision.

Regarding cultivators, Qin Chuan didn’t care about age. After all, the people in the sect were basically old men and women.

Just as he was about to begin filtering out the participants, a group of people suddenly barged into the area covered by his divine consciousness, instantly capturing his attention.

From their words and actions, it seemed like something was wrong.

Not long after, a person from the Intelligence Hall quickly ran from outside into the main hall.

He immediately approached the Elder in charge of the Intelligence Hall.

“Elder, the representatives of the Qi and Cao families are here.”

“Alright, I understand.”

The Elder did not feel too surprised about their arrival. He had already expected this situation.

“Elder, are we going to let them in?”

“Of course. Do you think you can stop them? Remember not to clash with them.”

“Yes!”

A few minutes later, the procedures at the altar were over.

At this time, the members of the Qi and Cao families had entered.

Their arrival instantly caused an uproar.

Everyone knew that the Qi family and the Li family never got along.

This was especially during the last Martial Arts Conference: a genius from the Li family killed many of the Qi family’s young disciples, causing the Qi family to suffer heavy losses.

There was even less of a need to talk about the Cao Family. In recent years, they had continuously expanded their territory, especially towards the Li Family’s Qi Mountain. They were bound to place it into their own family’s territory.

There were a total of five people from the Qi family, including two Connate martial artists and one Grandmaster. The remaining two were young disciples of the clan, but their realm had also reached the level of first-rate martial artists.

The Cao Family, on the other hand, had three Connate martial artists. Judging from their aura, they were not much weaker than Li Jingchen.

“Patriarch Li, congratulations!”

They came forward to congratulate Li Jingchen with smiles.

Li Jingchen pulled a long face. Although he didn’t welcome them, he still had to show the proper etiquette.

“Patriarch Li, where’s the honored guest? I heard from your clansmen that he’s a young genius. I can’t wait to meet him.”

The person who spoke was a Connate martial artist from the Cao family.

This person’s name was Cao Weng. He was over a hundred years old, but because he had reached the Connate level, he only appeared to be in his forties.

Once he said that, the two Connate martial artists from the Qi family also surrounded him, eager to see what the new guest looked like.

At this moment, Qin Chuan walked out from the main hall.

“Great Master Qin!”

Li Jingchen froze.

The Connate cultivators from the Cao and Qi families immediately turned their attention to Qin Chuan.

After examining him for a while,

Cao Weng stared at Qin Chuan and directly asked, “Are you the new guest elder of the Li family clan?”

Qin Chuan was about to respond when Li Jingchen suddenly appeared before him and chided Cao Weng, “Cao Weng, please show some respect. This is the Li residence, not your Cao residence.”

Cao Weng was indifferent, “Patriarch Li, I didn’t say anything out of line, did I! Why are you so agitated?”

“Patriarch Li, Elder Cao didn’t say anything. We can’t even ask questions now?” A Connate cultivator from the Qi Family said sarcastically.

Li Jingchen said in a deep voice, “You can, but please be more respectful in your tone. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“Alright, then we’ll be more respectful!” Cao Weng grinned.”

“I am Cao Weng, may I know your name?” Cao Weng asked gently with a smile.

Qin Chuan coolly replied, “Why should I tell you?”

This answer was unexpected.

The smile on Cao Weng’s face froze. His gaze turned dark, and his jaw clenched.

Another Connate expert from the Cao Family looked at Li Jingchen and laughed dryly, “Patriarch Li, your honored guest seems to have quite the temper!”

Li Jingchen snorted and ignored him.

The Qi family’s Connate expert said, “Elder Cao, he’s a young man after all! His arrogance is normal. The only issue is whether he has the qualifications to act this way.”

“Elder, I think this guest is very ordinary! I don’t understand why the Li family made him a guest elder?”

Suddenly, a young man from the Qi family spoke up.

Although his voice was not loud, everyone present heard him clearly.

The air suddenly became quiet.

The words spoken by the Qi family’s youth voiced the thoughts of the majority of the Li clansmen.

At this moment, the gazes of the vast majority were all focused on Qin Chuan, wanting to see his reaction.

Qin Chuan, on the other hand, had a calm expression on his face. But, for some unknown reason, his calmness made others feel extremely uneasy.
