Chapter 8 Coming out of seclusion
Yang Jian nodded, not knowing what the talisman said.

Could it be that the great calamity of the Conferred Gods has already begun, and Yuanshi Tianzun has obtained the Conferred Gods List and is preparing to summon his disciples?

Yang Jian was speculating in his mind without any reason.

"Then when will the master come out? Will this talisman keep flying?"

"It's almost there. The master will be able to sense it once the talisman arrives."

As Hei Hu finished speaking, the white mist surrounding the cabin suddenly dissipated.

The talisman hovering in the air disappeared.

The next second, a Taoist in black robe suddenly appeared at the side.

It was Shen Gongbao.

But his face didn't look good at the moment.

Shen Gongbao's gaze suddenly turned towards Yang Jian.

Yang Jian's heart suddenly began to tighten. He was worried that Shen Gongbao would see his progress in practicing the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts.

Shen Gongbao's brows were furrowed more and more tightly, and his eyes looking at Yang Jian became increasingly strange.

Suddenly, he slowly said, "What's your name, kid?"

When Shen Gongbao saw Yang Jian, he wanted to call out to him, but suddenly he remembered that he had forgotten the name of this disciple he had casually accepted.

"Master, I am Yang Jian."

"Yang Jian, right? I'm going on a long journey, so you stay with Xiao Hei."

Shen Gongbao said this as he was about to use his escape technique.

But the black tiger roared, stopped Shen Gongbao, and rubbed against him.

Shen Gongbao's expression suddenly changed. In the message Xiao Hei had just sent him, he clearly heard that Yang Jian had made rapid progress in practicing the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

The look he gave Yang Jian suddenly became dangerous, and he waved at Yang Jian, saying, "Disciple, come here and let me take a look! I accepted you as my disciple, but I didn't even pay attention to your progress. This master is too incompetent."

Yang Jian felt his limbs stiffen instantly, as if a disaster was imminent.

"Why don't you come over?"

Shen Gongbao became a little impatient and stretched out his hand.

Yang Jian suddenly felt a suction force coming, and his body flew towards Shen Gongbao uncontrollably.

Shen Gongbao directly grabbed Yang Jian's wrist and used his magic power to investigate.

"Sigh~"

He suddenly took a breath of cold air and was shocked by Yang Jian's progress in cultivation.

It had been only about a day since he bestowed the Eight-Nine Profound Art on Yang Jian, and now he had actually developed a magical power.

The fastest person he knew of who practiced the Eight-Nine Profound Art was the ancient wizard Kuafu.

The legend goes that when Kuafu entered the sect, he improved every day, and after seven days he developed supernatural powers.

Right now, Yang Jian developed supernatural powers in one day.

Really scary.

"To kill or not to kill!"

Shen Gongbao's face was uncertain and he looked at Yang Jian with a fierce look in his eyes.

He had never seen anyone in his life be able to practice the Eight-Nine Profound Art so quickly.

Although this kid has a master-disciple relationship with him, no one would take it seriously.

If this kid succeeds in his cultivation in the future, he will inevitably have second thoughts.

It would be bad if the tiger becomes a threat to you at that time.

Suspicion arose and murderous intent arose.

Shen Gongbao unconsciously exerted force on the hand that was holding Yang Jian's wrist.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Yang Jian saw the murderous intent in Shen Gongbao's eyes and felt that a disaster was imminent. He pretended to be confused and asked curiously.

"Oh~"

Shen Gongbao just came back to his senses, but he didn't loosen his hand on Yang Jian's wrist. "You are extremely talented, the only one I have ever seen in my life. I am thinking whether I should take you back to show you to my brothers. My brothers are all people with great supernatural powers, and they may be more suitable to teach you than me."

After saying that, Shen Gongbao stared at the expression on Yang Jian's face. As long as Yang Jian showed any sign of movement, he would kill Yang Jian on the spot.

Boy, don't say I didn't give you a chance.

"Yang Jian's life was given by the master, and he can only be the master's apprentice. No matter how powerful they are, Yang Jian doesn't care. Yang Jian only wants to be the master's disciple and clean up the shit for Hei Ye every day."

Yang Jian had lived two lives as a human being, so he knew the danger and would naturally not step into the trap set by Shen Gongbao.

"Really? Hehe~"

When Shen Gongbao heard Yang Jian's answer, he smiled sinisterly, but his murderous intent had not disappeared.

He was even more certain that Yang Jian was very cunning despite his young age. How could an ordinary young man, who naturally admires strength, answer like this? "Brother, is this the immortal who saved us?"

Yang Chan suddenly ran over from the side: "What are you doing?"

"Master is checking my qualifications. Master said that I have good qualifications and am a good candidate for cultivation."

Yang Jian seemed to have found a life-saving straw and hurriedly explained to Yang Chan.

He could understand Shen Gongbao's concerns. If he wanted to survive, he had to expose his soft belly to Shen Gongbao.

"Master, why don't you take a look at my sister's aptitude? Maybe she's also a genius, and we can become your apprentices together."

Yang Chan nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, Yang Chan also wants to become a disciple."

"Okay, let me take a look."

Shen Gongbao smiled when he heard this, and put his hand on Yang Chan's outstretched white wrist.

This investigation made his expression suddenly change, because just as Yang Jian said, Yang Chan had excellent qualifications.

Who would have thought that the two bloody meals he casually left from Xiao Hei's mouth were the genius of cultivation.

If the senior brothers who have been unable to recruit disciples knew about this, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood.

Thinking of this, Shen Gongbao suddenly had an idea.

The talisman from Senior Brother Jiang Shang had already told him to be prepared to go back and face bad luck, but if he took this talented girl back with him as a gift to Senior Brother Yu Ding, Senior Brother Yu Ding would certainly plead for him.

Maybe you will be exempted from punishment.

Seeing that Shen Gongbao had not made any move, Yang Chan could not help but ask curiously, "Brother's master, is Yang Chan not talented enough?"

"No~no, haha."

Shen Gongbao shook his head and laughed.

With this little girl in his hands, he would have the means to control Yang Jian in the future, and solve several problems that were giving him headaches at once.

It naturally made him laugh.

"It just so happens that I have a senior brother who is having a headache and can't find a disciple. Are you willing to go back to the mountain with me?"

Yang Chan turned around and looked at Yang Jian.

Yang Jian: "This is a good thing. Follow Master."

Yang Chan nodded timidly.

"Okay, in that case, Yang Jian, you stay here with Xiao Hei, and I will teach you magic when I come back."

Shen Gongbao took Yang Chan with him, pinched their fingers and chanted a spell, and a ball of white cloud gathered under their feet.

The black tiger suddenly roared and bit Shen Gongbao's Taoist robe, not wanting him to leave.

Shen Gongbao pulled at the robe but failed to pull it back from Hei Hu's mouth. He said angrily, "It's because of you that I'm in trouble. If you follow me back, you'll be chopped to pieces by my brothers. Get out of here now."

Hei Hu then reluctantly opened his mouth and watched Shen Gongbao fly away on the cloud.

"My dear disciple, wait for me. I will leave now."

Shen Gongbao patted Yang Chan beside him and gave Yang Jian a meaningful smile.

On the cloud.

"Why don't you bring your brother?"

Yang Chan looked at Shen Gongbao with curiosity.

"Uh, Master Dao, I have my own arrangements."

Shen Gongbao's face suddenly turned dark. If Yang Jian was really a disciple with a deep master-disciple relationship with him, it would be fine. He would definitely bring Yang Jian to show off to his senior brothers.

But the opposite is true.

If we bring Yang Jian along, this kid might just go around under any of the senior brothers' orders and get snatched away and taken as a disciple. Isn't that just asking for trouble?

After Shen Gongbao left.

Yang Jian and Hei Hu looked at each other.

"What advice do you have, Master Bai~Hei?"

Yang Jian looked at the black tiger, which seemed to be hesitant to speak, and took the initiative to ask.

Black Tiger bared his teeth and used his claws to pick at the flesh between his teeth, while casually saying, "Go and prepare ten boys and girls for me."

Yang Jian's face turned dark in an instant. The black tiger's appetite was growing bigger and bigger. This was not a solution.

The three people who were captured earlier had a grudge against each other, so it was no big deal that they were eaten.

It is impossible to let him become an accomplice to the evildoers.

What's more, Black Tiger had just reported Yang Chan to Shen Gongbao. If it weren't for Yang Chan's extraordinary talent, he would not be alive.

Thinking of this, Yang Jian looked at Hei Hu and said word by word: "Absolutely not!"
