Chapter 5249
“Are you convinced?” Mo Chen put away the wooden sword and asked with a smile.
Kai took a deep breath, bowed and said, “Senior, your swordsmanship is divine. I am ashamed to be inferior to you.”
“Since you’ve given in, then let’s talk about joining the Sword Sect…”
“Senior, I…” Kai wanted to say something else, but Mo Chen suddenly stepped forward and slapped him on the shoulder with lightning speed.
Kai only felt a gentle but irresistible force surging into his body, and a burning sensation instantly came from his shoulder, as if something was branded there.
He looked down and saw a pale golden sword-shaped mark appearing on his shoulder, emitting a faint spiritual light.
“This is the mark of my Sword Sect’s disciple. From now on, you are a member of my Sword Sect.”
Mo Chen patted his shoulder and said in an unquestionable tone, “With your talent, you deserve the position of senior brother. Ling Xue is too impatient. You should take more responsibility for the sect’s affairs in the future.”
Ling Xue was stunned listening to this, then a look of joy appeared on her face. She bowed to Kai and said, “Greetings, Senior Brother!”
Kai opened his mouth, looked at the indelible mark on his shoulder, then looked at Mo Chen’s expectant eyes, and finally could only sigh helplessly.
He knew that he was being forcibly “recruited”.
However, although Mo Chen was strong, he had no ill intentions. He even showed his appreciation and cultivation for him everywhere. He could still feel this kindness.
“Oh, that’s all.”
Kai smiled bitterly and said, “Since Senior is so insistent, I can only obey your orders.”
Mo Chen laughed and said, “Hahaha, with you joining our Sword Sect, the Sword Sect will surely flourish. Let Ling Xue take you to the Information Building. She is familiar with the route.”
“Thank you, senior.”
Kai thanked her and followed Ling Xue out of the yard.
After leaving Mo Chen’s yard, Ling Xue took Kai and Hu Mazi to the Xinwen Building in the east of the city.
As soon as he turned a corner, he ran into several young disciples dressed in the uniforms of the Sword Sect. The leader was a handsome young man with a sword inlaid with gems on his waist. It was obvious that he was of high status.
When the young man saw Ling Xue, his eyes lit up instantly. He quickly stepped forward with a warm smile on his face: “Junior Sister Ling, what a coincidence? I was just about to look for you. I just got a piece of cold iron, and I want to invite you to go to the sword quenching workshop to see if you can forge a handy sword.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Kai and Hu Mazi, his brows unconsciously furrowed, and his tone was a bit scrutinizing: “Who are these two?”
Ling Xue pointed at Kai, her tone calm but with unquestionable seriousness: “This is Brother Kai. From today on, you will be the eldest senior brother of our Sword Sect.
This is Senior Hu Mazi, a friend of Senior Brother Chen.”
“Senior Brother?” Several Sword Sect disciples were stunned for a moment. They looked at each other with disbelief on their faces.
The attentive young man laughed out loud, looking Kai up and down, with undisguised contempt in his eyes: “Junior Sister Ling, you are not kidding, are you?
Just him? A cultivator in the realm of scattered immortals, is he worthy of being our Sword Sect’s senior brother?
Although our Sword Sect is not as strong as it used to be, we wouldn’t let a person from the Loose Immortal Realm become our Senior Brother, right?”
He took a step forward, deliberately releasing the aura of the third level of the Earthly Immortal Realm, and looked at Kai with a sense of oppression: “Boy, I don’t care what path you took. If you want to be the eldest senior brother, you have to ask us old men if we agree.
Do you dare to fight me? If you can withstand three of my moves, I will recognize you as my senior brother! ”
Several other disciples also joined in the commotion: “Exactly, Senior Brother Li is the best of our generation, and even he’s not qualified to be the senior brother, so why should we let an outsider take the position?”
Hu Mazi was getting impatient watching from the side and was about to speak when Kai raised his hand to stop him.
