“Don’t you just want a few inner sect spots? I will just give it to you!”

He furiously said that. However, he didn’t have an angry expression on his face, instead, he was much happier.

The 4 inner sect disciple spots that Wei Xu left him was originally for Zong Shou’s protectors.

Now that he s.n.a.t.c.hed one already naturally he had to make compensations.

However, Ruolan felt like she was abandoned by Zong Shou, her expression looked extremely pitiful.

Zong Shou smiled, pointing at Hanfang, “This person is much more amazing than I am and can teach you stronger things. Next time you won’t be bullied anymore. Eh! There are also sweets that taste good…”

When s.h.i.+ Ruolan heard that her eyes were filled with tears, the tears glistening in the light, filled with a begging expression. Zong Shou was helpless, thinking about how this little Ruolan was learning from Chuxue? It was just too strong, making his heart hurt like he had done something unforgivable and that they could never be separated.

He suddenly had an idea, his tone changing. He tempted her, “Learn the skills well and next time you can protect your brother! You are getting a master, we aren’t separating…”

Hanfang was originally furious, how could his personal disciple be someone’s protector? Following which seeing s.h.i.+ Ruolan nod her head, her tears stopping. He stopped speaking and suppressed the urge to scold him.

Following which Zong Shou pulled Chuxue in front of his body, “Senior brother Han since you want disciples then why not add one more? She is called Su Chuxue, her talents are no lower than Ruolan.”

Thinking that if he could get rid of this burden at the same time to his senior brother, that would be the best situation. When Chuxue learned martial arts, no matter what it was she could learn it instantly. However, in terms of spiritual cultivation, she forgot everything in a breath. Even after learning the great sky changing meditation technique it didn’t make any difference. It was something that made his head hurt for a long period.

Hanfang’s expression had calmed down, calmly sweeping over Chuxue, following which he didn’t bother, “This girl’s talents aren’t bad, spirit forged tiger bones, born with limitless strength. However to be my disciple she is still a little lacking. She is not just one grade weaker than Ruolan.”

Zong Shou was stunned, thinking that did Wei Xu not tell this senior brother that Chuxue had the battle martial body?

What spirit forged tiger bones, that was something he didn’t know about. But he knew that Chuxue’s fighting ability was the most pinnacle talent in the world.

Even he was weaker than that brat. If she wasn’t being suppressed by him to spend time on spiritual cultivation too, her martial cultivation would be far from the current martial ancestor realm.

His brows rising, just when he was about to speak to explain, he saw Chuxue suddenly tugging at his sleeves.

When he turned around, he saw her face was filled with a stubborn unwillingness. Her eyes were filled with annoyance and rage.

Seeing that Zong Shou was first stunned, a moment later he understood that Hanfang’s words had hurt this little girl’s pride.

He couldn’t help but feel amused, he thought this Xue’er was so muddle-headed till she had no feelings.

Thinking about it carefully, Zong Shou retracted the words which were at the corner of his mouth, thinking that he probably was unable to get rid of this burden. However, his lips curled up, filled with an evil smile, “Forget it! Don’t take her then. Senior brother Han don’t regret in the future.”

Hanfang scoffed coldly, “In this world, there hasn’t been a thing which could make me regret! I believe that my pair of old eyes have never been wrong about anything.”

When he said those words, Zong Shou was helpless. Hanfang had just become s.h.i.+ Ruolan’s master, he didn’t want the atmosphere between the two sides to be too tense. He pulled her hand, directly pus.h.i.+ng open the door to the depository and walked out, “All of you follow me.”

Along with Hanfang walking out of the book depository, Zong Shou felt his breathing tense up as he looked at the s.p.a.ce around.

Only to see that nearby there were rows of endless buildings, looking extremely vast and majestic, taking up hundreds of thousands of feet of s.p.a.ce.

Although there was a round sun in the sky it gave off no temperature. The temperature in this s.p.a.ce seemed to be moderated.

Who knew if it was because that sun was simply too fake or because of the spiritual formation of the place.

Around these buildings were a patch of wilderness. There were mountains and rivers and even some farmland.

Zong Shou knew that the scenery around was mostly fake. The common people path vast habitat was at most just a hundred thousand feet wide.

…Legend had it that the 5 vast habitats were different from those shrines and spiritual houses. They were s.p.a.ces that end realm experts of the cloud desolate era opened up in the cloud world. It seemed like those rumors weren’t false!

Distracted slightly, Zong Shou retracted his eyes, following which he looked behind him, only to see that above wrote the words Scripture Hiding Building C.

He was delighted, with this Scripture Hiding Building c, that means there were buildings A and B. Wei Xu said that the vast habitat hid ten million books, he probably wasn’t lying.

Then, at the corner of his eyes saw a bunch of people walk out from one of the buildings. They were dressed up in many different attires, their ages were all different. As for their cultivation, they were mostly grade 5 and 6, the lowest was grade 4.

Surprise appeared in Zong Shou’s eyes, “Senior brother, our common people path main hall has so many disciples?”

Looking out with one eye there seemed to be close to a thousand?

“They are disciples of the common people path, not the main hall. They are the core disciples of the 3 sects and 6 schools who came over to the vast habitat. They borrow the spiritual energy here to cultivate whilst listening to lessons here.”

Hanfang smiled, then he explained, “However the number of people in our main hall isn’t few either. There are only 20 people who have the rights to enter the mysterious life golden book. As for direct disciples, it only reached the 3rd generation, however, branches like mine also had many disciples.”

Zong Shou didn’t mind much about what he was saying behind, what he was curious about was the words he said at the front, “Listen to cla.s.ses, what does senior brother mean?”

“That was the rule that your senior brother Wei Xu had set down. Although your senior brother is a little insane sometimes, only this makes me respect him!”

Hanfang sighed as he said with a flat tone, “Every year, the common people path vast habitat will invite the seniors in the sect to teach in the vast habitat. People who have the rights to teach are all above the spiritual grandmaster realm. Sometimes there are even cultivators of the celestial path who return to the vast habitat. Listening to cla.s.ses within the vast habitat is much better than learning from their masters. Which was why the 3 sects and 6 schools all wish to obtain spots to come to the vast habitat to cultivate. Naturally, it was also done to ensure that the sects don’t get alienated away from the main branch.

Zong Shou was instantly enlighted, knowing that the common people path had many branches, if the founder was still alive it was okay, but if he wasn’t, the connection might be broken sooner or later.

Wei Xu’s actions were exquisite. With the relations.h.i.+p of the same sect learning together, the many branches were the same as one faction.

Didn’t the university system in the future come from this? The many disciples of the common people path needed to have an inner disciple or core disciple and above rights before they could advance…

Feeling slightly impressed, Hanfang turned around his head once more, his gaze filled with meaning, “Then junior brother, have you thought about what ident.i.ty you would like to use to learn in the common people path vast habitat?”

Zong Shou’s heart was as clear as a mirror, his right-hand flipping and a token appeared in his hand.

He originally thought that Wei Xu gave him this token to make it easier for him to walk about in the cloud world as a common people path disciple, who knew that it was used here too.

In fact, within the vast habitat, the 3 sects, and the 6 schools along with the disciples of the main hall, there wouldn’t be less than 10 thousand of them.

Too many people, rumors will fly, he did need to have a new ident.i.ty to cover up.

Thinking about it carefully, he slightly shook the token in his hands. Following which the words changed.

…It was the words common people path inner disciple Tanqiu!

Zong Shou’s face also changed, it was the same as the last life. However, although Zong Shou wanted to make his face more mature, back to the 30-year-old uncle look from before, the token didn’t help him out. No matter how he changed, he was still looking like a 15-year-old.

Not far away, there was a pool. Looking at the reflection, Zong Shou slowly focused himself.

This look, how long hadn’t he seen it? His mind also seemed to have returned to when sword emperor Tanqiu was young.

“This look isn’t too handsome but it isn’t too ugly, it couldn’t be more average. The ident.i.ty is also just inner sect, you are truly great at the art of keeping a low profile.”

Hanfang’s eyes were filled with surprise. Although Zong Shou’s current look was average the body quality which exuded a natural majesty and n.o.ble aura couldn’t be hidden.

He scoffed lightly in his heart, your looks in a sharp person’s eyes is as eye-catching as a lantern, how can you even hide? Following which he said, “Unfortunately if you want to enter this Book Hiding Building C, even the A building you must at least have the ident.i.ty of a core disciple!”

Zong Shou was helpless and could only change the words on the token once more, changing the inner sect into core disciple. Thinking about it he added the words 3rd generation to hit.

Hanfang laughed and stopped bothering about him, following which he swept towards Zong Yuan and the others.

Zong Shou instantly understood the reputation of Zong Yuan’s unparalleled general seed was no weaker than him. There were many people who recognized them.

Just that he only had one illusionary spell token so how could he change?

That Zong Yuan’s expression changed as he took out his token, the words on it could change too, his name directly changed to Zong Er.

Deeming Zong Shou as the elder, he was naturally the second one. He then changed his looks, moving the position of his facial features slightly and he looked different. He was still really handsome but he looked much brighter.

Only then did Zong Shou understand. The tokens of Zong Yuan and the others were linked treasures, connected to the parent. His teleportation jade letter and illusionary spell token were the main artifacts of this set of spiritual artifacts.

Ruoshui also followed suit, changing her name to Shui Ruo. Chuxue originally didn’t know how she should change her name, seeing what Ruoshui called herself she calmed down, flipping her name and changing it to Xuechu.

In a blink of an eye, the 3 of them looked different from before. Only s.h.i.+ Ruolan didn’t change. She was still small so probably no one would recognize her. As such, she didn’t need to change her looks.

Anyways he didn’t plan on using this ident.i.ty for a long time.
