Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King - Chapter 193

Once the First Elder said that, the elders nodded their heads and began to come forward one after the other to give him the rings. While Xiao Lin who accepted the rings from them, didn’t try to open it to see what they held or contained within them. So, as he got the rings, he immediately stowed them away into his spatial ring and clasped his fist before the elders that gave him the spatial rings.

Not long, the elders gave Xiao Lin all the rings that they brought here with them.

Once the elders finished doing so, the First Elder said with a slight smile in his face, “So, Devil Fang, now that you have gotten rings which contains the best books for cultivation of certain Spiritual Energies, animal hide scrolls that have battle techniques printed in them, then top-tier cultivation resources for the cultivation of those different energies, we would like you to study them when you return to your room soon. Although we wouldn’t entirely leave you to study them on your own, as the elders will come from time to time to ask how it’s going and provide help where needed, we however want you to study the arts yourself as you have done with other arts that we saw you display at the exam ground. We want you to do that as we want to keep what we are doing a secret to everyone, to even our teachers. Right now, to the whole sect, you are the most important person. We don’t want news of what we are doing get to others, or if that happens, and other sects are able to possibly infer what we are doing, they might start Sect Wars, where they would aim to destroy you, our most valued asset.”

“So, since we don’t want news of your ability reaching the public and getting to the hands of sect elders and even their founders, we want you to try to comprehend the cultivation arts that were given to you to the best of your ability. Then the elders will come from time to time to ask how you are doing and provide assistance where needed to eliminate anything that might as a barrier to your smooth comprehension of those cultivation arts and battle techniques. Then once once you are able to comprehend them and have acquired some degree of understanding in the different arts and techniques passed to you, you can go right ahead to practice in the practice areas solely created for you. You are to bring no one there as the practice places are meant only for you alone to enable you understand the battle techniques tied to those cultivation arts more. So, many of them will be opened up in different, hidden or restricted places around the sect, within the jurisdiction of an elder so that they can monitor what you are doing and drive away people that will unintentionally wander there.” The First Elder said while Xiao Lin shook his head with a smile in his face, as he had already heard about this before from the elders using his enhanced vampiric hearing ability when they were in the Assembly Hall.

“Alright, elder. I understood everything that you said.” Xiao Lin said while the First Elder nodded his head.

The First Elder then asked, “So Devil Fang, would you like us to continue calling you Devil Fang, or you would want us to know you true name?”

“Well, I will prefer that I am called Devil Fang. But since elders would also like to know my name, I will say it. My name’s Li Huang.” Xiao Lin said.

Although he could have told them Xiao Lin, but because he had told Zhao Yu and Tian Xi that he was called Li Huang, he just had to tell the elders the same thing too, or it could lead to a false name crisis in the future where everyone would be wondering who was Li Huang or Xiao Lin, and may cause the elders and teachers to be wary of an infiltrator or a spy from other sects, making them delve deeper into the backgrounds of their disciples so as to find out and eliminate the spy or espionage agent that may have come from other sects or organizations that are antagonistic to their growth. And if that happens, that wouldn’t be too good for him, since it would expose him and make him lose their trust.

Once Xiao Lin said that, the First Elder said with a nod of his head, “Good!”

He then said further, “Li Huang, now that you have become our most favorite disciple, you can now be called the Dragon Child of the Celestial Dragon Emperor sect. What this mean for you is that you are allowed to enter any place in the sect that are even prohibited to teachers and some lower-ranked elders. Also, you will be allowed to know so many secrets about things that we will never want you to know. Then again, you can be given as many beast companions as you want after they have been tamed so that they won’t hurt you or kill you.”

“However, you can’t use many of those powers now, as we want you to keep you and your abilities hidden to prevent the occurrence and recurrences of trouble and disasters in the far, unforeseeable future. Then when we have shown you to the world as the monstrously-talented pride of our great sect, only after we are fully ready and totally geared to do so, then you can now use that unquestionable power delegated upon you as the Dragon Child of the Celestial Dragon Emperor sect to do those things that I listed a moment ago.” The First Elder said and smilingly gazed at Xiao Lin who wasn’t expecting this at all.

He then said further, “Since the establishment of this sect millions of years ago, we have never had anyone become the Dragon Child, as we didn’t find anyone to be given the title, or could even fit the title. But you, you are different. You have shown yourself to be someone totally worthy of that title. So, Li Huang, you should be glad and honored at receiving such a title that will allow you to command your seniors and even your teachers.”

Immediately the First Elder said that, Xiao Lin immediately went into a bowing position for a few minutes. He then said with a sincere, unfaltering tone in his voice, “Elders, I am deeply honored by your commitment to me and for the title that you unexpectedly gave me. I sincerely appreciate it.”

“Don’t mention, Li Huang.” The First Elder said with a nod of his head.

He then spoke further, “Alright, you can return to your room now.”

Once he said so, he looked at Elder Kwang and said, “Please, return him to his room”

Elder Kwang nodded his head and immediately unleashed a power that fully encompassed Xiao Lin, making him feel like he was in an invisible cocoon of pulsing energy. And once that unseen cocoon composed purely of telekinetic force surfaced, he was immediately lifted into the air and shot out like a ray of light to his room along with Elder Kwang who flew at a great speed alongside him.

Once they appeared high in the air before the roof of his room, the elder silently dropped Xiao Lin to the ground before his door and canceled off the force that seemingly wrapped into a cocoon around his body for levitation purpose. And the moment he did so, and without waiting for any sort of speech or gesture from Xiao Lin, Elder Kwang abruptly shot back to the Grand Elder’s room since the meeting wasn’t over yet, and his presence would surely be needed so that they can finally wrap up things and leave to their respective rooms.

When he appeared there, the First Elder said with a stern expression appearing in his face, “Now that Li Huang has been taken back to his room to initiate his comprehension of the arts and techniques inked in those books and scrolls that we gave him, I want all of us here to swear an oath that we would never divulge anything that happened here to a third party.”

Immediately he said that and without waiting to hear anything from the elders, including their thoughts or opinions concerning what he just said, the First Elder opened his palm to reveal something like a brilliant red seal. Then on this seal that gleamed with intense redness, could be seen characters that could be likened to the characters used during the primeval times, giving the feeling that the seal was something gotten from the really ancient era.

“Here, is a seal called the Primordial Life and Death Seal of Oath. So, what we are all going to do is swear before this seal that none of us will mention what happened here to any person other than all of us that are gathered here..” The First Elder said and gazed at the elders who stood before him with all sorts of expressions in their faces.
