On the surface, the fire dragon submitted, causing Duan Ling Tian to feel slightly uneasy in his heart. Duan Peng, however, disapproved.
As long as the fire dragon breaks through the first layer of the seal, I will be able to sense that as long as it immediately returns, it will be able to suppress the fire dragon. Instinctively, I feel that I have something to restrain the fire dragon with.
However, the 2,000 stalks of Heavenly Dragon Grass every day caused Duan Ru to feel slightly pained in his heart. This was prepared for the warriors of the Pill Sect. Even though there were quite a few of them, they wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of sloppiness.
"Hopefully, after the Fire Dragon matures, it will be able to subdue him. Otherwise, it will become a disaster …"
Duan Ling Tian's heart was always troubled.
After a month of observation, Duan Ling Tian noticed that there weren't any problems, and he finally calmed down. On this day, while Bu Baoyuan was discussing the matter of the Sky Dragon medicinal field, the deacon on duty came in to report.
"Sect Leader, the Fire Dragon City Lord wishes to seek an audience."
"Hmm?" He felt strange. He had never interacted with the officials before, so what was the Fire Dragon City's Mayor doing here? He only invited the mayor once when he was establishing the sect and did not have any further interactions with him ever since. This was the idea of an encounter, trying not to have any relationship with the authorities, while at the same time falling into an official vortex.
No matter how big the sect was, it was still within Fire Dragon Prefecture. Fire Dragon Prefecture was just an ordinary region of the Empire of Yu the Great. There were over a thousand cities like Fire Dragon Prefecture. Therefore, Duan Meng was very careful. The martial arts world was the martial arts world, not the government. He would not participate in the official battles.
"Quick, invite him in!"
Soon after, a refined man walked in. He was dressed in an official's robe, and he strode in with great ease. Behind him was a young man.
"Haha, Sect Leader Duan, long time no see. How have you been?"
Duan Ling Tian could only greet him with a smile. "So it's City Governor Tu, please take a seat." Duan Ru hurriedly indicated to his subordinates to serve tea to the City Governor of Fire Dragon City. The Fire Dragon City's Master gracefully sat down and took a sip of tea, "Not bad, you're worthy of being the number one sect in the Fire Dragon Province. Such good tea doesn't exist anywhere else. Just a sip and you'll feel refreshed."
"Since City Lord Tu likes it, before he leaves, he should bring some. This is a special product of the Pill Sect, the Cloud Sky Dragon Tea." The Fire Dragon City Lord was stunned, "Sect Leader Duan, could it be that this tea is made from Sky Dragon Grass?"
Duan Ling Tian laughed heartily. "City Governor Tu is indeed knowledgeable. This was created from the young Heavenly Dragon Grass!"
The Fire Dragon City Lord was even more shocked, "Sky Dragon Grass is so rare and the Pill Sect can actually use it as a tea. This is really grand, admiring, admiring. In that case, I have to drink a few more cups."
Duan Ling Tian naturally didn't believe it. The dignified City Lord of Fire Dragon City had come to the Pill Sect's headquarters to drink tea for no reason.
"City Lord Tu is joking. As long as you like it, I will send someone to deliver some to you in a few days. I am listening attentively to any teachings that you have come today."
The City Governor of Fire Dragon City smiled with a face full of smiles as if he was bathing in the spring wind.
"Sect Leader Duan is really quick to speak. I have come today with a request. I have a distant relative's child who envies the Pill Sect and wants to enter the Sect to study. I wonder if Sect Leader Duan will accept him?"
What kind of person was Duan Ru Yue? Naturally, he could guess what the Fire Dragon's City Lord meant. He wanted to recruit him as a disciple, but if he wanted to, the Pill Sect wouldn't come looking for him with their thousands of masters. "However, Duan Meng is still going to test him." City Lord Tu, although the Pill Sect is a great sect, I am still young and have never accepted a disciple.
"Hahaha!" Fire Dragon City's Leader laughed out loud, "If you, as a mighty Sect Leader of the Pill Sect, were to be so inexperienced and inexperienced, there would be no intelligent people in the entire Fire Dragon Region. Sect Leader Duan, don't decline.
After the Fire Dragon's City Lord said this, he took out a jade tablet from his bosom and looked at the others with some hesitation. Duan Ru Yue immediately let the others leave, leaving behind Vice Sect Leader Bu Baoyuan.
Only now did the City Governor of Fire Dragon City pass the jade token to Duan Ru to receive it, and upon closer inspection, he was greatly shocked.
"City Lord Tu, this is an item from the royal family. Where did you get it from?"
The Fire Dragon City Lord smiled mysteriously: "This is the gift I was talking about. This is the gift worn by the current Emperor as a keepsake to the prince's master. As long as you rely on this jade pendant, you can request the royal family to do three things.
Duan Ling Tian hurriedly said, "City Lord Tu, this is too precious. This Sect Leader is slightly terrified."
"Haha, Sect Leader Duan, do we still need to consider this matter?"
Duan Ling Tian pondered for a moment. "In that case, I'll agree to your request." Then he sent the youth over and asked for his name and birth date. He kowtowed ten times to Duan Meng and considered him his disciple.
Duan Meng immediately took out a stalk of Hundred Year Old Heavenly Dragon Grass and fed it to the youth. After that, he circulated his dantian's true qi to clear the youth's meridians. In a flash, the youth was brimming with energy.
Duan Ling Tian smiled as he arranged for Duan Baoyuan to follow. "Brother Bu, you go arrange things for Duan Qin. I have something to discuss with City Lord Tu."
"City lord Tu, you've given me a hot potato!"
"Sect Leader Duan, you can't put it like that. The current Imperial Court has already discovered that the various princes and princes are forming their own factions and are all trying to fight for the throne. Although this child is born from a concubine of the Emperor, he is the favorite of the Emperor and he has specially asked me to find a good teacher for him.
Duan Meng was slightly terrified: "City lord Tu, you can't say it like this. The capital city is full of royal sects, some of them are bigger and more glorious than the Pill Sect, for example the three great sects. Why doesn't the Emperor allow his own son to follow them? "Wouldn't that be even more insurance?"
"You also know of the Three Worlds, Three Sects?"
Duan Meng smiled bitterly, "I was lucky to know a bit, but I don't know much. Didn't the mayor also know about it?"
Fire Dragon City's City Lord: "I only found out recently that the Great Yu Empire has the Sky Sect, Earth Sect, and Human Sect. Although they are powerful, they are all very mysterious. Perhaps the Emperor does not wish for his children to go down the wrong path.
Duan Ling Tian was dazed for a moment before immediately understanding in his heart. "What does the Emperor have to say?"
The Fire Dragon City Lord approached Duan Ru Yue and said, in a low voice, "His Majesty is very surprised about the development of the Pill Sect. Do you know why the Fire Dragon Region has recently increased their troop by 1 million?"
"Why?" Duan Ling Tian was shocked.
"As long as Sect Leader Duan refuses to accept the prince as his disciple, he will secretly dispatch us to annihilate the Pill Sect. However, now you can be at ease. Since he has accepted the prince as his disciple, he will follow the Emperor and the army of Fire Dragon City will disperse, hehe."
Duan Meng broke out in a cold sweat. He hadn't thought that his Pill Sect would develop so quickly and cause unease in the imperial government. This was something he hadn't expected either.
In the past, he had only thought that the martial arts world was just the martial arts world. It seemed that he had made a mistake not to interact with the government.
It was true that the martial arts world was the martial arts world, and so was the government. Wherever there was a person, there would be a martial arts world.
After Duan Meng understood this principle, he was suddenly enlightened in his heart. He chuckled and took out a storage pouch from his chest pocket.
"Brother Tu, here are 100 stalks of thousand-year Heavenly Dragon Grass. It's just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."
When Tu Hai saw this, his eyes immediately widened. "Thank you very much, Sect Leader Duan. If you need me in the future, feel free to speak."
"Hahaha, good." Duan Jidao carried a cup of tea. "Brother Tu, drink some tea."
