"Greetings to Master, Venerable Sique."
"Greetings to Master, Venerable Mu Xin."
The disciples from both sides bowed in unison, while their eyes were inconspicuously examining the green figure standing beside them. They were somewhat surprised when they saw that figure.
This little junior brother looks very frail! I wonder if he is fifteen or sixteen years old. With such a body and age, he is going into the Lingxu Secret Realm? What if something happens in there
"This is Mu Jiu, a disciple I recruited from outside. I called him back recently. He will enter the Lingxu Secret Realm with you. As his senior brothers, you have to take better care of him when the time comes." Mu Xin said in a calm voice, his eyes sweeping over his disciples.
"Yes, I will follow the master's orders and will take care of my junior brother." The disciple of Master Mu Xin spoke, his eyes falling on the young man in green.
He looks so small and weak. I don't know why Master let him go into such a dangerous place.
"The same goes for you. Once you go in, you must take care of each other." Si Que said to his disciples.
"Yes." The other four disciples also responded.
"Mu Jiu, this is my eldest disciple Mu Ling, who is also from my family. This is my second disciple Cheng Junnan, my third disciple Guo Ziqi, and the fourth disciple Lin Yushi."
“Greetings to my senior brothers and sisters.” Fengjiu stepped forward and bowed.
When she called them "senior brothers and sisters", Si Que and Mu Xin's hearts skipped a beat. This was their ancestor! Now, she was calling their disciples "senior brothers and sisters". This, this, was really a mess.
"Junior brother." Several people nodded slightly.
"cough."
Si Que coughed lightly and introduced Feng Jiu: "Mu Jiu, these are my disciples. You don't have to call them senior brothers and sisters. Just call them by their names."
Si Que said, and gave his four disciples a look: "Introduce yourselves."
"I'm Pei Zixuan."
"I'm Lin Chengjin, Yu Shi's brother." The man said with a smile and glanced at his sister.
"I am Shao Kaizhi."
The last one was a woman. She said softly, "I'm Guan Yue. Mu Jiu, you can just call us by our names from now on."
"Okay." Fengjiu responded with a smile.
"Okay, we've found the person. Mu Jiu, go back to your cave to practice!" Mu Xin ordered in a deep voice, motioning her to leave first.
"Yes." Fengjiu smiled, nodded slightly to everyone, and left.
"You guys, practice more these days and prepare everything you need. There is one more thing I just told you. Once you get inside, you must protect Mu Jiu." Mu Xin instructed again with concern.
They were slightly surprised, but they didn't show it on their faces. They still said yes. After the two venerables left, they looked at each other and said, "Who do you think this Mu Jiu is? Why does it feel like our master's attitude towards him seems a little different?"
"People from the Mu family." Mu Ling said, looking at them and said, "Since our master has ordered us to do so, we will do as he has ordered."
Hearing this, the few people didn't say anything more, and after a while they all returned to their caves.
