Chapter 119 - 117: Empress’s Hard Cultivation Land
Xiao Ye followed the Fourth Elder away and arrived in front of a picturesque range of mountains, which was at the heart of the Chongyang Mountain Range. The location was sparsely populated, accessible solely to direct disciples.
"Direct disciples in the sect can freely choose any mountain peak to reside on. You will reside on that mountain peak from now on." The Fourth Elder casually pointed to a lush, mist-enshrouded peak.
Innate Martial Artists have exceptionally good eyesight, and when Xiao Ye focused his gaze, he immediately spotted a palace at the top of the mountain peak.
"Being a direct disciple really comes with great benefits, to even live in a palace," Xiao Ye remarked pensively. Although he had no demands for his dwelling, having a good place to live was undoubtedly better than not.
Then, the Fourth Elder led Xiao Ye to the top of the peak and into the palace at the summit.
"Although you’ve become my direct disciple, cultivation still requires self-effort," the Fourth Elder said.
"Master, may I ask, why did you take me as your direct disciple?" Suddenly, Xiao Ye asked, fixing his gaze on the Fourth Elder.
In fact, he had been guessing that the Fourth Elder might have known all along that he had comprehended more than ten percent of the Martial Arts True Intent. Could it be that this was why the Fourth Elder took him as a direct disciple?
Now that he was here, he finally voiced the doubts in his heart.
The Fourth Elder took a deep look at Xiao Ye, fell silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "Since you want to know, I will tell you everything."
