Chapter 2198: Acknowledging a Teacher
Wei Tiande sat in his chair and looked at Zhao Hai. He closed his eyes, seemingly thinking about something. As for what he was thinking about, Zhao Hai didn’t know.
Time silently passed. Zhao Hai ascended from the lowest of realms, so he had a lot of patience. He continued to stand in front of Wei Tiande, keeping his head down obediently.
After some time, a voice was heard outside Wei Tiande’s residence, “Elder Wei, disciple has brought Junior Brother Lin.”
Wei Tiande opened his eyes and said, “Come in.” The person complied and then came inside along with another cultivator. From the report, the other cultivator seems to have the surname Lin. He was one of the newly joined disciples to the sect. His strength was good, he was about to become an Earth Monarch.
Wei Tiande nodded towards the cultivator. Then he casually tossed a storage bag and then waved his hand.
The cultivator excitedly received the storage bag and gave Wei Tiande a bow. Then he turned around and left. The cultivator surnamed Lin bowed towards Wei Tiande and said, “Lin Bao has seen Elder. May I know why Elder called me over?”
Wei Tiande looked at Lin Bao and then waved his hand. Before Lin Bao could respond, a black qi shot towards his heart, piercing it through.
Lin Bao looked at Wei Tiande in disbelief. He wondered whether he did anything to offend Wei Tiande. He thought that he would receive benefits after being called over. He didn’t think that his life would be taken.Zhao Hai looked at Lin Bao like normal. He expected this a long time ago when Wei Tiande asked the cultivator to bring an outer disciple over. Now, Wei Tiande confirmed his suspicion.
Wei Tiande looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Turn him into undead.”
Zhao Hai complied. He waved his hand and a black fog appeared before surrounding Lin Bao’s corpse. When the black fog vanished, Lin Bao was already standing in place. His strength was still at the Soul Fusion Stage.
Seeing this, Wei Tiande’s eyes shone. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Can all your undead retain the strength they had?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “Replying to Elder. They don’t. The undead can’t be stronger than me. Even if they are Earth Monarchs, their cultivation would drop to my level. However, if I break through, they will restore their original strength. But it would be difficult for them to become stronger.”
Despite hearing this, Wei Tiande wasn’t disappointed. There was excitement on his face as he said, “Good. Good. Fantastic. You have a good ability. Since you said that if f their strength is higher than yours and you turn them into undead, they will become as strong as you. Have you tried to kill someone stronger than you?”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Yes, I did.”
Zhao Hai replied, “This disciple is originally a cultivator from an ordinary family. Once when I was out, I fell to the bottom of a cliff. When I was there, I saw the body of a cultivator. From his body, I obtained a claw technique called the Heavenly Demon Claw. I practiced that technique until I reached a very high mastery. This allowed me to fight cultivators stronger than me. I also learned a set of knife techniques. This allows me to catch stronger opponents off-guard.”
Wei Tiande nodded, “You didn’t come from the Battle Corpse Sect’s territory?”
Zhao Hai responded, “Yes. This disciple is from the territory of the Water Ghost Sect. That is where I killed people and turned them into undead. When I killed a Water Ghost Sect disciple, I was chased down by the sect. Then I escaped here and joined the Ghost Child Gang.”
The Water Ghost Sect has already been eliminated. Even if Wei Tiande wanted to inquire, he wouldn’t be able to.
Wei Tiande looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Did you tell anyone else about this?”
Zhao Hai shook his head, “This disciple doesn’t dare spread this matter out. But now that the Water Ghost Sect is gone, I’m confident to reveal it.”
Wei Tiande nodded, “You don’t have to worry now that the Water Ghost Sect is gone. Right, you have stayed in the Water Ghost Sect before. What do you know about spark grass?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “Replying to Elder. This disciple hasn’t heard about spark grass. When I was there, there was no such thing. It seemed like this grass appeared out of nowhere.”
Wei Tiande nodded. He didn’t suspect Zhao Hai’s response. Spark grass did indeed appear all of sudden. There were no traces about its origins. It was normal for Zhao Hai to be unaware of it.
Wei Tiande said, “Zhao Ling, are you willing to cultivate along with this old man?”
Although Zhao Hai already thought about this, he wore a surprised expression as he looked at Wei Tiande. After a while, Zhao Hai replied, “Elder, you mean, you want to take me in as your disciple?”
Hearing this, Wei Tiande couldn’t help but laugh, “Silly kid. Your right, I want to take you as my disciple. Are you willing?”
Zhao Hai immediately knelt and bowed towards Wei Tiande, “Disciple greets Master.”
Wei Tiande laughed, then he held Zhao Hai up and said, “Good. Very good. You’re smart. Your Master became an Elder of the Battle Corpse Sect because of his innate talent. Now your talent is even better than mine. Your achievements in the future will definitely be higher than mine. Do your best.”
Zhao Hai hastily replied, “Thank you very much, Master.”
Wei Tiande waved his hand and said, “Although I took you in as my disciple, your success still depends on your efforts. If you become complacent because you became my disciple, I won’t hesitate to kill you. I don’t want my disciple to ruin my reputation.”
Zhao Hai quickly replied, “Master can rest assured. I will work hard.”
Wei Tiande nodded, then he said, “Someone come in.” Before long, a voice was heard outside, “Elder.”
Wei Tiande replied, “Come in.” The person walked in. This person was a member of the Battle Corpse Sect’s Miscellaneous Hall. He was specifically assigned to serve Wei Tiande.
Wei Tiande looked at the Miscellaneous Hall member and said, “Go and prepare a new residence for Zhao Ling. Also, change his identity token. From now on, he’s this old man’s disciple.”
When the Miscellaneous Hall disciple heard Wei Tiande, his body couldn’t help but shake. He looked at Zhao Ha in shock. It looked like he lost the ability to think.”
Seeing the disciple’s reaction, Wei Tiande showed discontent. He coldly snorted and said, “What, didn’t you hear this old man’s instructions?”
The Miscellaneous Hall member immediately recovered. He quickly replied, “Yes, this disciple will deal with it immediately.”
Wei Tiande nodded and then waved his hand. The disciple looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Junior Brother, please come with me.”
Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned towards Wei Tiande and said, “Master, disciple will settle his matters first. Then I’ll return to listen to Master’s teachings.”
Wei Tiande waved his hand and said, “Go. Come back here tomorrow morning.” Zhao Hai complied, then he followed the Miscellaneous Hall member out.
As soon as they left Wei Tiande’s place, the member of the Miscellaneous Hall looked at Zhao Hai with envy. However, he didn’t dare offend Zhao Hai. He clearly heard Wei Tiande say that Zhao Hai could come tomorrow. This proved that Zhao Hai has obtained Wei Tiande’s favor. So even if he couldn’t get along with Zhao Hai, he couldn’t offend him.
Zhao Hai looked at the Miscellaneous Hall disciple and then smiled, “Senior Brother, I’ll have to depend on you for my new residence.”
Upon hearing this, the Miscellaneous Hall disciple immediately recovered. Then he replied, “Junior Brother is too polite. Junior Brother, please come with me.” After he said that, he led Zhao Hai onward. After two turns, they arrived in front of a tomb chamber. Then the Miscellaneous Hall disciple turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Junior Brother, this is your new residence. Also, please hand me your identity token. I’ll change it for you. By the way, if Junior Brother has anything you want to be moved from your previous residence, I can move it for you.”
Zhao Hai quickly replied, “Thank you very much, Senior Brother.”
The cultivator quickly replied, “Junior Brother is too polite. This is my job. Junior Brother, please give me your identity token.”
Zhao Hai nodded and then handed his identity token to the cultivator. When the cultivator left, Zhao Hai turned around and entered his new residence.
The new residence was much bigger than his previous one. Not only did the floor area increase, there was also a small hot spring inside. There was even a training ground inside. Although it can’t compare to Residence Number 52, it was still quite big.
Zhao Hai gave a satisfied nod. He didn’t expect his rise in the Battle Corpse Sect to be this smooth. In fact, his status in the Battle Corpse Sect isn’t any lower than his status in the Tyrant Blade Sect.
