At this moment, his face turned ashen as he roared, "Tan Yun, as the chief, I can see that Shiyao trusts you immensely. But you made her give up on entering the Holy Spirit Lineage and choose the Artifact Lineage instead. What are your intentions!"
"Tan Yun, I have also said before that Chang Kong's death is not your fault. Are you still brooding over it? Don't selfishly mislead Shiyao into making a decision that will ruin her life!"
Before the holy spirit path practitioner could respond, the bing qing daoist cast a cold glance at Tan Yun and the murong daoist, then looked anxiously at Zhong Wu Shiyao, "Shiyao, which lineage you join will determine your future. You cannot entrust your future to outsiders. Listen to the chief and come to the Danmai!"
"That's right, Shiyao, you can't believe Tan Yun's words. Come to the Talismans Lineage!" The talisman practitioner, an elderly lady, looked kindly at Zhong Wu Shiyao, "Shiyao! If you join the Talismans Lineage, I'll treat you as my own granddaughter. I will surely teach you well!"
The qiankun daoist also argued, "Shiyao, think about it. As a spatial fetal soul, you will be able to set up countless spatial killing formations in the future. Such formations can only be arranged by someone with your talent."
"Moreover, within these various spatial killing formations, you can control powerful demon beasts and make them your formation spirits!"
"Shiyao! Not joining my Formation Lineage would truly be a waste of talent! Come to my Artifact Lineage!"
At this moment, the qiankun daoist, talisman practitioner, holy spirit path practitioner, and bing qing daoist all vied for Shiyao's attention.
In contrast, the murong daoist glanced at Tan Yun with a knowing look, then turned to the conflicted Zhong Wu Shiyao and smiled, "Shiyao, you have good taste to find a partner like Tan Yun. You should trust what he says and quickly become my disciple."
Zhong Wu Shiyao's cheeks flushed slightly as she shyly replied, "You misunderstand, Tan Yun is not my disciple partner; he is Mu Jie’s future husband."
Hearing this, Mu Mengyi, who knew Zhong Wu Shiyao had feelings for Tan Yun, felt increasingly that Shiyao had a kind heart.
"Murong Daoist, did you hear that? Tan Yun is not even Shiyao's partner," the bing qing daoist sneered, then looked at Zhong Wu Shiyao and said again, "Shiyao, what can Tan Yun understand? You cannot entrust your future to him. You must not join the Artifact Lineage."
At this moment, Zhong Wu Shiyao gently pulled her right hand away from the bing qing daoist's grasp, then knelt before the five chiefs, "Disciple thanks all chiefs for their kindness. My mind is made up; I wish to join the Artifact Lineage. This matter has nothing to do with Tan Yun, so please do not blame him."
Then, Zhong Wu Shiyao turned while kneeling, facing the murong daoist to pay three kowtows, "Disciple pays respects to Master!"
"Good, good disciple, quickly rise," the murong daoist may not have shown her teeth in a smile, but anyone could see her excitement.
She bent down to help Zhong Wu Shiyao up, smiled charmingly, "Good disciple, from now on, you will be my only closed-door disciple. Also, I had heard you are one of the four great beauties of the outer sect; seeing you today, you truly live up to the name!"
"Thank you for the compliment, Master." Zhong Wu Shiyao looked at the murong daoist shyly, "But I still think Master is the most beautiful woman."
"Good disciple, your words are sweet. Come, accompany me," the murong daoist extended her delicate hand, holding Zhong Wu Shiyao's hand, and sat down in her seat amidst the jealous gazes of the other chiefs.
Zhong Wu Shiyao stood in surprise beside the murong daoist, listening to her every word with joy.
While the murong daoist was speaking with Zhong Wu Shiyao, she occasionally glanced at the bing qing daoist, her eyes sparkling with playfulness and pride, making the bing qing daoist tremble slightly in anger.
At this moment, not only the bing qing daoist but also the talisman practitioner, qiankun daoist, and holy spirit path practitioner all felt deep animosity towards Tan Yun.
