778: Offending elders and not knowing respect and inferiority
"Fellow Daoist Xie..."
Yan Qingrou looked at Xie Weilou, hesitant to speak. She felt that Xie Weilou had stirred up a lot of trouble.
Hitting Zi Jun was no small matter; the law enforcement team would definitely come looking for him soon.
Once taken away by the law enforcement team, serious problems would certainly arise.
Xie Weilou said nonchalantly, "Just a small bug, no need to pay attention to him."
After speaking, he walked towards the main hall with his hands behind his back.
"..."
Yan Qingrou gave a bitter smile and quickly followed. Today's matter would not be easy to resolve.
"He... he actually hit Senior Brother Zi Jun? Does he not want to live?"
Lan Ruo stared blankly at Xie Weilou's retreating figure.
She had pulled some strings to follow her sister here, working odd jobs, and didn't dare to show any temper. Even walking a single step, she was cautious, not daring to provoke outsiders.
She never expected this person, upon arriving in the Danhe Realm, to hit a seventh-grade alchemist. This was absolutely suicidal.
Even if the other party joined the Danhe Realm and became a member, he would probably have to pay a considerable price.
Lan Yuanbing said in a condensed voice, "He's doomed. Even if Senior Brother Zi Jun doesn't bother him, the law enforcement team won't let him off!"
She quickly walked towards Zi Jun.

Inside the main hall.
A middle-aged elder was holding a cup of fragrant tea, sipping it. He looked at Xie Weilou and said with a smile, "Just tell me the city where you obtained the recommendation slot, your name, and your alchemy grade. After I organize your information, an elder will come to take you away later."
"..."
Xie Weilou casually pulled out his token and placed it on the table.
The elder subconsciously reached for the token, but when he saw the two characters "Elder" on the token, the teacup in his hand instantly dropped to the ground: "elder token?"
The elder stared at Xie Weilou in surprise and uncertainty. Such a young elder? Had he just passed the assessment?
He quickly stood up, picked up the token, and looked at the other side, his eyes widening as he stammered, "Ninth... ninth-grade mid-stage..."
He himself was only an eighth-grade early-stage alchemist, yet before him appeared such a young ninth-grade mid-stage alchemist. It was simply terrifying.
"elder token! Ninth-grade mid-stage..."
Yan Qingrou, who was beside him, also widened her eyes, looking at Xie Weilou with shock.
This was an elder token, and it was for a ninth-grade mid-stage alchemy elder.
Fellow Daoist Xie didn't just pass the assessment to become a disciple of the Danhe Realm; he directly became an elder.
And not just any elder; this was a ninth-grade mid-stage alchemy elder.
Shock!
At this moment, Yan Qingrou's heart was filled with nothing but shock. Such a young ninth-grade alchemy elder, looking across the entire Danhe Realm, there was probably only one person like him at present.
Her Yan Family had actually befriended such a person. Her younger brother truly had excellent foresight!
Yan Qingrou, who had just been worried because Xie Weilou hit Zi Jun, now felt all her worries disappear.
With the status of an elder, what was hitting a Zi Jun? Later, Zi Jun might even have to personally come to apologize.
The elder suppressed his inner shock. He looked at Xie Weilou and quickly bowed, "May I ask the Elder's esteemed name?"
"Danwang City, Xie Wei!"
Xie Weilou said calmly.
The elder immediately said, "Greetings, Elder Xie Wei. Your information will be recorded immediately. You may now freely choose any ownerless mountain peak, cave dwelling, or great hall in the Danhe Realm as your residence."
He respectfully handed the token to Xie Weilou.
"Thank you."
Xie Weilou took the token.
The elder said to Yan Qingrou, "Yan Qingrou, please take Elder Xie Wei to choose his residence."
"As you command!"
Yan Qingrou bowed to the elder.
Just then, a group of law enforcement team members entered the main hall.
Zi Jun and the Lan Yuanbing sisters walked in front. He covered his face, his eyes filled with resentment, and pointed at Xie Weilou: "This is the person who hit me..."
As a prodigy of the Danhe Realm with remarkable alchemy talent, this was the first time he had been slapped in the face. To him, it was an utter humiliation.
A middle-aged man from the law enforcement team walked forward. He looked at the elder and said thoughtfully, "This person hit someone in the Danhe Realm, violating the rules of the Danhe Realm. I specifically came to..."
"I'm afraid there's a misunderstanding!"
The elder was a little speechless. He pointed at the token in Xie Weilou's hand.
The middle-aged man's gaze followed, and he happened to see the elder token in Xie Weilou's hand. The four characters "Ninth-grade mid-stage" were clearly visible.
"Such a young ninth-grade mid-stage alchemy elder?"
The middle-aged man's heart trembled. He quickly bowed to Xie Weilou, saying, "I just heard that someone offended an Elder. I specifically brought him to apologize to you!"
"..."
The scene was dead silent. Everyone looked at the middle-aged man and Xie Weilou with astonishment.
Elder?
This person is an Elder?
Zi Jun quickly said, "Commander Wu, you've made a mistake. This person is a new disciple..."
Slap!
Commander Wu backhanded Zi Jun, sending him flying.
He said with a grim face, "Do you think I'm blind? Zi Jun offended an Elder and showed no respect. Arrest him immediately."
He did know that Zi Jun had a Profound-grade Alchemist backing him.
However, the person before him was a young ninth-grade mid-stage Alchemist, even more extraordinary, and would certainly have a major figure stepping forward for him.
Thus, he naturally knew how to handle the situation!
"..."
The reactions of the law enforcement team members were also very swift; they instantly restrained Zi Jun.
Commander Wu bowed to Xie Weilou, "Zi Jun offended the Elder. How does the Elder intend to deal with him?"
Xie Weilou said indifferently, "You handle it as you see fit! Teach him a lesson. If he doesn't learn, I'll take his life next time."
With that, he walked out of the main hall.
Yan Qingrou quickly followed.
"Elder... he's an Elder?"
Lan Ruo's body trembled slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Lan Yuanbing's face was pale, and she didn't dare to say a word, but she understood one thing: from now on, she must not provoke anyone from the Yan Family.
Yan Qingrou's master was a Profound-grade Alchemist, and now the Yan Family was on good terms with an Elder of the Danhe Realm. This was no longer an existence they could afford to provoke.
"Take him back."
Commander Wu waved his hand and led everyone out of the main hall.
After leaving the main hall.
Yan Qingrou led Xie Weilou to stroll around the secret realm. The secret realm was extremely vast, with countless mountain peaks, many of which were ownerless.
After strolling for more than half an hour.
Xie Weilou found a good mountain peak: "This peak is good!"
The mountain peak before them was filled with abundant and incredibly rich spiritual energy, dense vegetation, and featured pavilions, terraces, grand halls, as well as flying springs, waterfalls, and floating islets. It looked exceptionally good.
Yan Qingrou said, "This mountain peak is called Gan Peak. Its spiritual energy is abundant, and it is indeed excellent. From what I know, many powerful alchemists have been eyeing this place, wanting to claim it."
Xie Weilou said with a smile, "This is it then."
Yan Qingrou nodded gently: "Understood! I'll go to the main hall later to report this matter."
"Mm!"
Xie Weilou flew into the mountain peak and walked towards a grand hall.
Yan Qingrou quickly followed...
