124: Heavenly Saint King
"Damn it, who is this person? He just arrived and stole our thunder." Countless male Cultivators thought to themselves.
"Is this the Azure Emperor Sect's Reception Hall?" Lin Xiao murmured as he looked at the surroundings.
Then, he began to walk aimlessly within this Reception Hall.
Looking at the various wondrous formations around him, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
The Azure Emperor Sect truly lived up to its reputation as one of the supreme powers of the heavens, it was simply too extravagant.
The Materials used to refine these formations were all of the highest standard.
While the Lin Clan's Reception Hall was also good, compared to the Azure Emperor Sect's, it was undoubtedly overshadowed.
"Hey, brother, are you also here to participate in the Azure Emperor Sect Disciple selection competition?"
But just then, as Lin Xiao was about to continue strolling, a clear voice suddenly rang out beside him.
Lin Xiao turned his head to look, and saw a young man's clean and refined face.
"Who are you?" Lin Xiao asked.
"My name is Li Qingyu, you can call me Qingyu." The young man smiled.
"My name is Lin Xiao." Lin Xiao also smiled.
"You haven't answered my question yet?" Li Qingyu said.
"What question?" Lin Xiao was taken aback.
He hadn't paid attention to Li Qingyu's words earlier because he was deep in thought.
"Then let me ask again, brother, are you also here to participate in the Azure Emperor Sect Disciple selection competition?"
Li Qingyu smiled and repeated his previous question.
"Disciple selection competition?" Lin Xiao thought to himself.
Recalling that he was here to become an apprentice and an Elder, he couldn't help but nod.
"I suppose so, I am indeed going to the Azure Emperor Sect." Lin Xiao said.
Since he was going to the Azure Emperor Sect anyway, being a Disciple or an Elder didn't seem to make much difference.
"Haha, if that's the case, then let's team up." Li Qingyu smiled.
As soon as he said this, the surrounding Disciples looked at Lin Xiao with pity.
"This Li Qingyu is participating in the Disciple selection competition for the third time, right? How has he not been selected yet?"
"Of course, it's because his talent is too weak and his cultivation is too low, what else could it be?"
"Who is that brother next to Li Qingyu? In previous years, because of Li Qingyu's dragging them down, all his teammates failed to advance. Is it this brother's turn this year?"
"Hahahaha, I think so. It's truly a random lucky audience member getting hit."
Countless Cultivators discussed amongst themselves, causing a hint of shame to appear on Li Qingyu's face.
He shyly said, "If you don't want to, then forget it. I won't force it."
After hearing what these people said, Lin Xiao was completely stunned.
He used his Divine Sense to look at Li Qingyu and found that the other party's cultivation was indeed shockingly low.
He didn't even have the strength of a Saint King Realm Expert, only the mere Star Emperor Realm.
This cultivation was even inferior to the Disciples of some Intermediate powers in the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain.
It was truly... somewhat terrifying.
However, the only thing that surprised Lin Xiao was that this Li Qingyu was actually a Child of Destiny.
His entire body shimmered with Luck, comparable to the power of Luck on Lin Yi.
With the idea that following a Child of Destiny would bring benefits, Lin Xiao couldn't help but agree to Li Qingyu's request.
"Alright, no problem." Lin Xiao said.
Even if he didn't get any benefits from Li Qingyu, forming a good relationship was still worthwhile.
After all, every Child of Destiny was an extraordinary individual.
Of course, Mo Fan, that good-for-nothing, was an exception.
"Really?! You really agreed to me?!"
After hearing Lin Xiao's words, Li Qingyu immediately cried out in excitement.
He had originally thought that Lin Xiao, after hearing those people's words, would definitely not agree to his request.
Now it seemed he had worried too much.
But at the same time, he became somewhat curious about Lin Xiao's strength.
After all, Li Qingyu himself knew best how weak he was.
Since Lin Xiao dared to agree to his request after hearing their words, it meant that Lin Xiao must possess extraordinary strength.
After all, no one but a fool would be stupid enough to bring a burden along.
However, compared to Li Qingyu's excitement, the other Cultivators felt a collective surge of joy.
"Great, with that good-for-nothing Li Qingyu, this competition will have one less major opponent."
"Yes, this handsome Young Master is good-looking, but unfortunately, he's a fool."
"Hehe, with one less unknown strong person, this competition will be much simpler."
"That being said, we still have many formidable opponents."
"Yes. The Lei Family and Mu Family, those few powerful Families, have also sent people to participate in this Disciple selection competition. It's going to be a bit tough."
Everyone spoke one after another. Although Lin Xiao wasn't going to participate in this competition, he was still somewhat curious about it.
"Disciple selection competition, huh? I wonder how many young generation Cultivators in this Dao Domain can fight me." Lin Xiao thought to himself.
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than an extremely old and powerful voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
"You must be Lin Clan Divine Son Lin Xiao. I am Heavenly Saint King. Come to the Azure Emperor Sect to find me now."
"Go to the main gate of the Azure Emperor Sect. I will send someone to pick you up there."
"Heavenly Saint King, is this the Saint King Realm Expert mentioned in the letter?" Lin Xiao murmured.
"Lin Xiao, what are you thinking about?" Noticing the unusual expression on Lin Xiao's face, Li Qingyu asked.
"Nothing, I just suddenly thought of something and need to leave for a while." Lin Xiao said.
"Alright, then let's meet here in two days. See you then." Li Qingyu smiled, not wanting to disturb Lin Xiao's private matters.
"See you then." Lin Xiao smiled.
With that, he vanished from the spot and rushed towards the direction of the Azure Emperor Sect's main gate.
"Stop! This is a vital area of the Azure Emperor Sect. Non-Azure Emperor Sect Disciples are strictly prohibited from entering."
As soon as he reached the main gate, he was stopped by the Azure Emperor Sect's guards.
Lin Xiao was about to say something, but before he could open his mouth, a clear female voice came from not far away.
"By Sect Master's order, this is Lin Clan Divine Son Lin Xiao from the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain. Let him in."
Looking towards the source of the voice, it was a valiant and graceful female Disciple.
"Understood, Senior Sister Sun." Hearing the female Disciple's command, the Azure Emperor Sect's guards respectfully said.
They then bowed slightly to Lin Xiao in apology.
"Young Master Lin Xiao, we apologize for the offense just now. Please come in."
"It's fine, it's your duty." Lin Xiao said.
With that, he looked at the female Disciple, whom the guards called Senior Sister Sun.
Heavenly Saint King had just said he would send someone to meet him.
This person who was meeting him must be her, right? Lin Xiao thought to himself.
"My name is Sun Yang, Young Master Lin Xiao, please come this way. Heavenly Ancestor has been waiting for you for a long time." The female Disciple smiled.
Saying this, she led the way, walking towards the interior of the Azure Emperor Sect.
This caused passing Azure Emperor Sect Disciples to frequently turn their heads and look.
