The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 817 - 265: Oh, So the Person Your Sister Wants to Save Is You! (6k)

At this moment, Zhou Qing sat with his eyes closed, enveloped by spiritual seals woven from three thousand rays of light.

These spiritual seals continuously wove and collided with each other, emitting a pleasant humming sound.

Some spiritual seals, upon touching, could even cause slight tremors in the space around them.

Ripples of spiritual power, visible to the naked eye, spread out from Zhou Qing as the center.

After about half an incense stick of time, Zhou Qing slowly opened his eyes, filled with awe and excitement as he looked at the three thousand spiritual seals surrounding him.

He truly hadn't expected that merely the blessing of ten top-grade wood-attribute spirit stones could allow him to condense two thousand spiritual seals within just one month.

He had leaped to become the fourth third-level array master in the entire cultivation nation of the fourth level.

Feeling the excitement of the people outside, Zhou Qing couldn't help but recall the scene from years ago at White Jade Taixu Courtyard, when Master Lin successfully condensed three thousand spiritual seals and was promoted to a third-level array master.

At that time, all the students and mentors of the academy were cheering with joy, and now, he stood at the same height.

For a moment, an indescribable sense of achievement surged in his heart.

"Truly a good thing!"

Looking at the Enlightening Ancient Tea Tree in his arms, which had once again lost its ethereal aura, Zhou Qing happily put it away carefully.

The spiritual seals surrounding him also dissipated, slowly merging into his body.

Then, he steadily pushed open the door, to find the Sect Leader Cao Zhengyang, the Supreme Elders, and all the Peak Masters already gathered outside.

Their faces were full of surprise and excitement, their gazes uniformly focused on him at this moment.

Zhou Qing clasped his hands in a salute: "Greetings, Supreme Elders, Senior Master, and Senior Uncle!"

Mo Xingjian was the first to recover from the shock, laughing heartily as he quickly stepped forward and wrapped an arm around Zhou Qing's shoulder, his eyes brimming with pride.

He wanted to say something, but a thousand words welled up in his heart, leaving him momentarily speechless.

His lips quivered and his eyes slightly reddened, eventually resorting to heavily patting Zhou Qing on the shoulder.

Above his head, the title "Disciple of Unprecedented Insight" directly changed to "Disciple of Exceptional Talent."

Sect Leader Cao Zhengyang stroked his beard, his face nearly overflowing with a satisfied smile.

"A third-level array master, who would believe it if they heard? How on earth did you manage it?"

The other Peak Masters were also genuinely smiling, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Zhou Qing scratched his head a bit sheepishly; he hadn't expected to cause such a big stir either.

He could only say, "I'm not sure myself, I just suddenly had some insights during cultivation, and while cultivating, it just happened to turn out this way."

Zhou Qing's words left everyone momentarily stunned, quickly turning into light laughter.

The Supreme Elders guffawed, with one of them speaking: "You've made the boy shy."

"In any case, Zhou Qing's breakthrough to become a third-level array master is a blessing accumulated over generations for our Taiqing Sect."

"Now, aside from us few, keep it under wraps for the time being. The child's talent in arrays is too dazzling, revealing it too early could invite unnecessary trouble."

Upon hearing this, everyone understood the implications and nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Cao Zhengyang was about to speak when he suddenly received a message from Li Daoxuan.

In that instant, his face once again filled with excitement, and he announced loudly, "Tonight is truly filled with double happiness, no, triple happiness!"

"Junior Sister Qi from Purple Mist Peak has just emerged from seclusion, and not only that, but Lu Yaoyao has also successfully broken through to the late stage of Nascent Soul!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately astir, full of joy and admiration.

Cao Zhengyang looked at Zhou Qing with even more appreciation in his eyes, "You've set a good example for everyone."

Zhou Qing merely smiled humbly, bowing slightly, not daring to claim credit.

"Alright, our Junior Sect Leader must be tired, let him rest; everyone, don't disturb him!"

Supreme Elder Duanmu Shu spoke out at the right moment.

Only then did everyone realize, nodding in agreement, and upon leaving, they showered Zhou Qing with encouragement and praise while leaving in an orderly manner.

...

Just as everyone was leaving, Yan Xiaohu stealthily slipped in.

Seeing his master's radiant face, Yan Xiaohu asked with a puzzled look, "What kind of stunt did you pull to create such a commotion?"

Zhou Qing, with a smile on his lips, responded nonchalantly, "It's nothing much, I just condensed three thousand spiritual seals and broke through to a third-level array master." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Yan Xiaohu: "..."

In an instant, his mind went blank.

[Heart Mirror Points +15]

Soon, the original note above Yan Xiaohu's head, "Junior Brother of a Future Array Master," immediately changed to "Junior Brother with Terrifying Array Talent."

Once he came to his senses, Yan Xiaohu's eyes shone brightly, and with a "thud," he kneeled on one knee in front of Zhou Qing, clinging tightly to his leg.

Crying and declaring loudly, "Brother, from now on, you are my real brother! From today onwards, I'll follow you!"

Off to the side, Mo Xingjian was speechless, flicking Yan Xiaohu's forehead.

He said irritably, "Don't go blabbing everywhere. It's enough for us to know; if the other sects find out, it could be a disaster for Old Fourth!"

Yan Xiaohu winced from the flick but nodded rapidly like a pecking chicken, indicating he understood.

Although Old Fourth once swore a Heavenly Dao Oath in front of many that he wasn't Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown.

But if they found out how quickly Old Fourth became a third-level array master, from the perspective of their sect's future development, it would surely be more of a bane than a boon.

Yet, the terror of Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown is truly indescribable.

Soon after, Mo Xingjian announced to the outside world that it was the result of his cultivation technique, urging everyone not to be alarmed, which barely suppressed the storm.
