2243 Recruitment

"Master, I was wrong!" Huang Ba said tremblingly. His head stooped low, not daring to look up.

Yun Lintian was surprised by Huang Ba's reaction. He looked towards the living room and saw an old man with an unkempt beard staring at Huang Ba coldly. Without a doubt, this person was a True God and the leader of the Thousand Skulls Valley, Huang Xian.

"You've disgraced us," Huang Xian said calmly, but it sent a chill running down Huang Ba's spine. Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Huang Ba didn't dare to say anything and kept his head lowered.

Yun Lintian felt this was a bit too much. Huang Ba wasn't the one who started the conflict but rather was implicated. Moreover, it was impossible for him to fight Venerable Darkness in the first place.

In Yun Lintian's eyes, Huang Ba had done nothing wrong. At the very least, he tried his best to fight his opponents.

Huang Zheng seemed to see through Yun Lintian's thoughts. He smiled and said, "For us, it is shameful to be rescued by an outsider."

Yun Lintian nodded slowly and cupped his fists towards Huang Xian. "Junior Yun Lintian greets Senior Huang."

Huang Xian tilted his head slightly to look at Yun Lintian. A moment later, he nodded approvingly. "You are the best seedling I've ever seen. An ordinary person can barely strengthen one of the three foundations, but for you, whether it is soul, body, or essence, all of them have reached their limits. Looking at the entire Primal Chaos, only Dragon God's descendants can achieve this level."

Yun Lintian wasn't surprised by Huang Xian's accurate judgment. After all, a True God was an entirely different being. No matter how strong his concealing technique was, it couldn't escape a powerful True God like Huang Xian.

"Senior has overpraised me," Yun Lintian responded politely.

"Take a seat," Huang Xian smiled faintly and beckoned Yun Lintian to sit beside him. This gesture surprised Huang Zheng slightly. Clearly, the old man held Yun Lintian in high regard.

"It's a bit rude to ask, but can you tell me about your background?" Huang Xian asked gently while personally pouring tea for Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian smiled faintly. "My origins are humble. I hail from a lower realm, a world far removed from the grandeur of the Divine Realm. However, I was fortunate enough to encounter a series of fortuitous events that led to my current strength."

Huang Xian offered a faint smile. A lower realm cultivator achieving such a level of cultivation was unheard of. Even with fortuitous encounters, it seemed impossible to break through the limitations of a lower realm's resources and environment.

"Not bad." Huang Xian nodded approvingly and glanced at his grandson. "Do you hear that?"

"Yes, Master." Huang Ba quickly responded.

Huang Xian said further. ""You are dismissed. Go reflect on your actions and learn from your mistakes."

"Yes!" Huang Ba bowed his head and quickly fled the room as if escaping for his life.

Huang Zheng chuckled and stood up. "Looks like I should go as well."

Huang Zheng patted Yun Lintian's shoulder and said, "See you later, Little Brother Yun." Then, he walked out of the room.

Huang Xian looked at Yun Lintian and asked, "With your strength, you don't have to participate in the competition at all. Those old fogeys will scramble to recruit you... However, I know your goal isn't joining any faction, but rather entering the Holy Lands to find something."

Yun Lintian responded calmly, "Indeed, Senior. I have something to do there."

"Perhaps I can help," Huang Xian said gently. "Don't get me wrong. I have no intention of making you owe me anything. You saved Ba'er's life, and I should repay you."

Yun Lintian asked curiously, "Is it possible to enter the Holy Lands without permission, Senior?"

"For others, it's naturally prohibited, but I am different," Huang Xian took a sip of tea and continued. "I used to live in the Holy Lands for millions of years. In a sense, I am still a member of the Holy Lands and have the right to enter and leave at will."

"Over the years, I have brought my descendants and potential talents to the Holy Lands from time to time. Ba'er is still far from being qualified. Hence, I didn't bring him in and let him prove himself."

"I see," Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "To tell you the truth, Senior, I want to go there to find my mother."

"Your mother?" Huang Xian was surprised and immediately understood the origin of Yun Lintian's talent.

"Yes. She is a member of the Misty Cloud Palace," Yun Lintian said.
