Hearing his master talking about his cultivation, Ye Li nodded and said, "Master, I did gain a lot from exploring the ruins this time.
After a near-death experience, he also had his own chance, skipping the late stage of the Spiritual Sea Stage and directly breaking through to the Spiritual Pill Stage. "
Ou Qianxie reached out and touched his beard, then smiled and said, "Yes, it seems that you are a person with great luck, which is why you can show signs of rising at such a young age.
No matter which era in this world, anyone who is destined to rise must have great luck, which is sometimes more important than talent.
Ye Li, you not only have luck, but I think you have talent. As long as you are not too arrogant and overestimate your abilities, your achievements will be limitless."
Hearing Ou Qianxie's comments, Ye Li smiled a little embarrassedly. He felt that his master's words were too kind.
Niu Qianjin and Yan Fangtong had expressions of complete agreement, looking at Ye Li and nodding with a smile, even Qin Mutian next to them seemed to agree with him.
“It is truly amazing that you can directly skip a small step and enter the Spiritual Pill Stage at the age of less than nineteen.
However, there are still many young people in the world who have a similar cultivation speed as you. As far as I know, the daughter of Emperor City Lord Di Tianyao is no slower than yours.
I heard from Brother Xue that she is only eighteen years old this year, and has already cultivated to the peak of the Linghai stage. She will break through to the Lingdan stage in the near future.
There are other people in the Four Holy Lands who have similar strength to you, so you should not be too proud and complacent. "
After praising Ye Li, Ou Qianxie did not forget to give him one more reminder.
When Ye Li heard the words "daughter of the Lord of Imperial City", a white figure flashed before his eyes.
"Could it be her?"
However, after thinking about it carefully, he denied this guess in his heart, because the lord of the Imperial City was surnamed Di, while Dongfang Caiyi's surname was Dongfang.
Ou Qianxie didn't seem to want to ask Ye Li about his experience in the ruins. After thinking for a while, he started talking about other things and said, "Ye Li, I originally thought you would not be back for about a month, so you wouldn't be able to see me.
I received a sudden invitation from an old friend to attend a rally, so I will be leaving here in ten days.
Originally, I thought that your cultivation was limited. Even if I couldn't teach you the basics of weapon casting this time, I would still have time to teach you if you come back in half a year.
But I didn't expect that you would break through to the Lingdan stage in just a few days. Now I have to teach you the basics of weapon casting.
Fortunately, you came back ten days early. I think if we start tomorrow and seize the time, we should be able to learn the basics in ten days."
Hearing Ou Qianxie's words, Ye Li nodded and said, "It's all up to Master to arrange. Ye Li has no objection."
Ou Qianxie smiled with satisfaction.
Then, he turned his gaze to Qin Mutian and said, "By the way, Mutian, let me introduce Ye Li to you. This is the first time you meet.
Ye Li is also my new disciple. He started two days earlier than you. According to the rules, you still have to call him "senior brother". Do you have any objection to this?"
Qin Mutian had a very kind expression on his face. He nodded respectfully upon hearing what Ou Qianxie said, and said, "Master, the rules are the most important. I should be the last disciple to enter the sect. This has nothing to do with age or status."
After answering Ou Qianxie, Qin Mutian stood up again, walked to Ye Li, saluted him, and said, "Qin Mutian greets Fourth Senior Brother."
He was old enough to be Ye Li's grandfather, but when he saluted Ye Li, there was no unnaturalness at all, and his movements were very steady. It seemed that he really accepted it in his heart, without the slightest bit of anger.
Ye Li didn't dare to accept the other party's greeting, and hurriedly moved aside, then said: "Master, why don't you arrange a new position for us? I have just entered the sect, and I haven't formally learned weapon casting from you yet. I think it is more appropriate for me to be your junior brother."
Before Ou Qianxie could reply, Qin Mutian opened his mouth to refuse, saying, "Fourth Senior Brother, this won't do. Rules are rules. I joined later, so I should be the junior brother.
Besides, my second and third senior brothers are younger than me. Do I have to keep moving up in line
As an old man, I don't mind the current seniority, so why should you mind, Fourth Brother?"
As Qin Mutian spoke, a happy expression appeared on his face, and it seemed that he really didn't care about it.
Ye Li looked at Ou Qianxie with some embarrassment. Ou Qianxie stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Ye Li, just accept it. Mu Tian is just like this. He takes rules very seriously.
At that time, I wanted to treat him as an equal, teach him how to cast instruments and accept him as a registered disciple just to help him out. I didn't expect that he would treat me as a teacher from then on, and this has been the same for decades.
I have advised him many times, but it was useless. Now I might as well accept him as my disciple."
Hearing Ou Qianxie's words, Qin Mutian looked at him seriously and said, "Master, you didn't just help me back then, you saved my life.
If you hadn't accepted me as your registered disciple and helped me train to become a weaponsmith in the Blowing Fire Hall, I wouldn't have been able to inherit the position of patriarch, and I probably wouldn't even have been able to keep my life.
As the saying goes, once a teacher, always a teacher. You taught me and taught me a lot, so I will naturally regard you as my teacher forever.
Now that you can accept me as your disciple, I am the happiest thing for me."
Qin Mutian looked very sincere while speaking. Although Ye Li didn't know what exactly happened that year, looking at Qin Mutian's expression, he could understand that the other party was full of gratitude towards Ou Qianxie.
Ou Qianxie waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about the past.
By the way, do you really want to merge your Fire Blowing Hall into my Weapon Casting Hall
Although your Blowing Fire Hall is not as famous as the Weapon Foundry Hall, it is also a well-known weapon-founding hall in the eastern part of the continent.
What's more, it is not only the product of your life's hard work, but also one of your Qin family's assets. If you just merge it into my Casting Hall, your Qin family members may not accept it. "
Qin Mutian said: "Master, the establishment of the Blowing Fire Hall was your contribution. The best weapon forgers in it were all brought by you, and they were all taught by you.
I have always kept your statue in the Fire Blowing Hall.
In name, you have always been the master of my Blowing Fire Hall. I have told you this since the beginning of the establishment of Blowing Fire Hall.
My Qin family has indeed invested a lot in the operation of Chuihuo Hall, but the money and effort contributed by the family are only a small part, and most of it is self-sufficient by the hall.
However, if we merge into the Foundry Hall in the future, I beg Master to allow the store we established before to share a portion of the profits with the Qin family every year, so that no one in my Qin family can use this matter to complain. "
