"Zhao family?"

Hearing Ji Ruan's words, the middle-aged elder frowned again, as if he had been thinking for a long time, and finally remembered something. He looked at Ji Ruan with even more disdain.

"Are you the one who took advantage of the favor your family had done to Biluo Sect thousands of years ago and shamelessly tried to force someone into my Zhao family's Biluo Sect?"

"Pfft~"

Right after the middle-aged elder finished speaking, before Ji Ruan could reply, he heard a sneer. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw it was the disciple with top-grade spiritual roots, Qiu Ningning.

At this time, Qiu Ningning was covering her mouth as if she was trying to hold back a laugh. Feeling the gaze, she quickly put her hand down and spoke without any guilt:

"I'm sorry, this is the first time I've heard that one has to go through the back door to enter a sect."

Although his words were very abrupt, the middle-aged elder did not seem to be angry, but spoke in a gentle tone:

"It's okay, we don't blame you."

When he looked at Ji Ruan again, he already had a look of disgust.

"Although you were recommended by the Zhao family, letting someone with low-grade spiritual roots come here is a slap in the face of our Biluo Sect."

"No matter what, the Biluo Sect is now a first-rate sect. Not just any Tom, Dick or Harry can enter."

As he spoke, the middle-aged elder deliberately glanced at Xiaobai and Taotao behind Ji Ruan, and the look of disgust on his face became even more obvious.

"Hahahahaha!"

"Look, she actually brought a cat and a dog with her. Did she think she was here for fun?"

"I think she's here to perform acrobatics! Hahahahaha..."

With the elders taking the lead, the disciples around him did not try to hide their laughter and burst into laughter, looking at Ji Ruan as if he were an ant.

Facing the laughter from all around, Ji Ruan remained indifferent and was not affected. He just looked up at the middle-aged elder with a serious expression:

"So the Biluo Sect's promise is so cheap?"

"What do you mean?"

Hearing Ji Ruan's words, the smile on the middle-aged elder's face disappeared, and he glared at Ji Ruan, as if he was going to attack him in the next second.

Ji Ruan was not afraid of this, but just looked at the other party with a smile:

"Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions, I'm just simply curious."

Bend down and pick up Xiaobai and Taotao,

"You also said that it was the Zhao family who first did a favor to the Biluo Sect. In order to repay the favor, the Biluo Sect gave the Zhao family a quota. Now you need to repay the favor, but you start to pick and choose."

"To outsiders, isn't it just a cheap promise?"

With a hint of a teasing smile on his lips, Ji Ruan raised his eyes and looked at the middle-aged elder meaningfully, then turned around and prepared to go down the mountain.

"You, wait!"

The middle-aged elder was so angry at Ji Ruan's words that his face turned pale. Seeing that the other party was about to leave, he hurriedly called out to stop him.

Although he looked down on Ji Ruan, since it involved the reputation of the entire Biluo Sect, he had to accept this disciple even if he had to hold his nose.

Feeling very reluctant, the middle-aged elder looked at Ji Ruan who turned his head to look at him, and almost gritted his teeth and said:

"You can stay, but your aptitude is too poor, so you can only be a menial disciple."

"Thank you very much, Elder."

Giving the middle-aged elder a harmless smile, Ji Ruan thanked him obediently, looking as if he had expected it.

As a newly promoted first-class sect, the Biluo Sect attaches great importance to reputation and will never lose face because of a low-grade spiritual root like her.

Ji Ruan saw through their thoughts and dared to threaten them by coming down the mountain.

He glared at Ji Ruan with an unpleasant expression, and feeling the gazes of the disciples around him, the middle-aged elder waved his hand angrily:

"What are you all standing here for? Go wherever you need to go!"

After saying that, he looked at Ji Ruan with an unfriendly tone.

"You, come with me."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the sect, even forgetting to take care of Qiu Ningning who was also waiting beside him.

Ji Ruan didn't care about the middle-aged elder's attitude. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, then followed with Xiaobai and Taotao in his arms. He looked neither humble nor arrogant, just like a tenacious green bamboo.

Seeing that the middle-aged elder and Ji Ruan had both left, but no one cared about her, Qiu Ningning was unhappy but hurried to follow them, looking at Ji Ruan's back with a bit more inquiry in her eyes.

He is clearly just a useless person with low-grade spiritual roots, so why can he act as if he doesn't care?

Wouldn't she feel inferior?

[Ningning, congratulations on joining the Biluo Sect. ]

At this moment, an old voice sounded. Qiu Ningning looked overjoyed and asked in her heart:

【Teacher, are you awake? 】

Yes, the middle-aged elder and Ji Ruan who were walking in front did not hear the old voice, and Qiu Ningning did not speak either.

All conversations were done in her head.

In front of Qiu Ningning, an illusory white figure appeared out of thin air. It was a white-haired old man. He looked at Ningning and nodded kindly:

【yes,】

After looking around, the shadow cast his gaze on Ji Ruan in front of him and spoke in confusion,

[This is…]

[Oh, a chores disciple,]

When mentioning Ji Ruan, Qiu Ningning's face showed a little more disdain.

[Teacher, you didn't see it just now. She is a low-grade spiritual root, but she threatened others with empty words just to join the sect. Tsk tsk, she really did whatever it takes to get into the Biluo Sect.]

【profound……】

Hearing this, the shadow's eyes also showed a little more contempt, and he turned his gaze back to Qiu Ningning.

【What about you? Can you enter the inner gate? 】

Qiu Ningning nodded quickly, with a look of unconcealed pride on her face:

[Of course! Not only that, I can also become his direct disciple! ]

[This is all thanks to you, Teacher. If you hadn't helped me cleanse my spiritual root into a single spiritual root, I wouldn't have been able to become your personal disciple.]

【Ha ha ha ha,】

Hearing Qiu Ningning's words, the shadow smiled happily, and looked at the other party with a little more kindness in his expression.

[Since you have accepted me as your master, I will naturally help you grow. ]

Qiu Ningning felt sweet in her heart:

【Teacher is still the best to me. 】

"clatter."

Ji Ruan, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked back with a puzzled look on his face.

Seeing Ji Ruan's actions, Qiu Ningning's expression froze, and her tone became stiff, as if because of guilty conscience:

"What are you looking at?!"

"nothing."

He glanced at Qiu Ningning with some doubt, then looked around. Ji Ruan replied and turned around to continue on his way.

This girl named Qiu Ningning is really strange. Just now she just felt a chill on her back, so she was curious and took a look. Why did the other party react so violently?

Pursing his lips, Ji Ruan silently warned himself to stay away from this disciple in the future.

Seeing that Ji Ruan didn't find anything, Qiu Ningning breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and said to the phantom in her heart:

[Phew~ I was so scared. I thought she had discovered the teacher.]

The shadow shook his head and chuckled when he heard this:

[She is just an ordinary person, how can she see me? ]

【Don't worry, no one can see me except you. 】

Hearing this, Qiu Ningning became confident again, with a hint of pride in her eyes:

[Teacher is right, no one can see you except me. ]

after all……

I am the child of destiny!

Thinking of her own life experience, Qiu Ningning raised a smug smile at the corner of her mouth, and looked at Ji Ruan with even more disdain.
