57: Ten Great Disciples: Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum, and Snow
After a burst of emotional release, Long Aotian finally left the place with Long Aoxue.
After all, this was the Imperial City Shi Family's territory, and there was no telling when the Shi Family members might return.
To be safe, it was better to leave first.
As for where to go?
With Long Aoxue leading the way, Long Aotian just followed.
Along the way, Long Aoxue chattered incessantly.
"Young Lord, how did you appear within the defensive array? You unsealed me; can you Cultivate now?"
"Young Lord, is what you said true? You used a killing array to kill ninety-eight Out-of-Body Realm Family Guardians and six Ancestors of the Distraction Realm from the Shi Family? Is your array Dao strength really that terrifying?"
"Young Lord, what Realm is your current cultivation? How can I not see your cultivation Realm, yet I feel you are stronger than me? Could it be that your cultivation is really higher than mine?"
"Young Lord, is everything you said true? Why do I feel like it's all so absurd and unbelievable..."
Amidst Long Aoxue's chattering, her face filled with shock, bewilderment, and disbelief.
Eventually.
Long Aotian flew through the air, carrying Long Aoxue, who couldn't even fly with a sword, like an eagle carrying a chick. This finally made Long Aoxue believe everything.
Although Long Aotian was only about eleven years old, it should have been difficult for him to carry the fourteen or fifteen-year-old Long Aoxue. But one must not forget that his current cultivation is the Ninth Revolution Peak Stage of the Purple Core Realm, with strength comparable to an Old Monster at the Ninth Revolution Peak Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Let alone carrying one Long Aoxue, carrying a hundred would be effortless.
Long Aoxue, being carried by Long Aotian through the air, was truly stunned by this display from Long Aotian.
Golden Core Realm cultivators can fly with a sword.
Nascent Soul Realm cultivators can fly through the air.
Out-of-Body Realm cultivators can have their Soul Emergence from the body.
Spirit Division Realm cultivators can multitask.
Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators can utilize Law.
Above the Transformation Sea Realm, each major Realm has a very significant ability.
As soon as Long Aotian displayed his ability to fly through the air, Long Aoxue, no matter how unbelievable she found it, had to admit that his combat power might indeed be comparable to an Old Monster of the Nascent Soul Realm.
In the Long Family, Long Aotian's strength is now at least equivalent to a Family Guardian!
She never expected that the Young Lord, who couldn't Cultivate for the past two years, would grow to such an astonishing degree.
Is this really the shock that someone who can't Cultivate can give?
According to the Young Lord, his current cultivation has reached the Ninth Revolution Peak Stage of the Golden Core Realm, just a step away from the Nascent Soul Realm.
In the Martial Arts World, it is said that breaking through to the Golden Core Realm within thirty years makes one a millennial Genius, and breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm within thirty years makes one a ten-thousand-year Prodigy. What about their Young Lord?
He is still two months shy of eleven years old.
Yet, he is already at the Ninth Revolution Peak Stage of the Golden Core Realm. What level of Martial Arts Talent should their Young Lord be considered?
Long Aoxue could barely imagine.
The Qilin Child of the Long Family!
He truly is their Long Family's Qilin Child!
With the Young Lord, how could their Long Family not rise to prominence?
And what fear could they have of the Imperial City Shi Family?
As long as their Young Lord is given enough time to grow, who in the Eastern Wilderness would their Long Family fear?!
Even the Imperial Family and the Cloud Palace would likely have to treat their Long Family with courtesy.
The more she thought about it, the more excited Long Aoxue became, and stars appeared in her eyes as she looked at Long Aotian.
The Young Lord is the supreme treasure sent by the heavens to their Long Family!
From now on, Long Aoxue will obey the Young Lord's every command, striving to become the strongest general under his command.
"Sister Xue'er, you said you were selected as one of the Ten Disciples of the new generation?"
Long Aotian's brows furrowed slightly.
The Ten Disciples of the new generation are the ten Family Elders trained to take over as Clan Chief in the future.
Just as the Clan Chief commands ten Family Guardians and the Family Head commands ten Family Elders, the Young Lord, as the successor to the Family Head, also commands the Ten Disciples.
What made Long Aotian's brows furrow was that there were no female Disciples among the Long Family's Family Guardians and Family Elders. Yet now, in the Long Family's new generation, the Ao Generation, Long Aoxue was among the Ten Disciples?
"Young Lord, do you dislike me for being weak?"
...This, how would I dare!"
Long Aotian couldn't help but give an awkward smile.
Would he dare to dislike this fierce yet adorable Clan Elder Sister for being weak?
They were currently flying at high speed through the air.
He didn't want to fall to his death.
His frown was merely due to his confusion that, while the previous generations of the Family's ten great generals had no female Disciples, their Ao Generation's Ten Disciples did.
Furthermore, Long Aoxue, who is only fourteen or fifteen years old, has reached the Eighth Revolution Stage of the Spirit Spring Realm, which is quite extraordinary. She is definitely among the outstanding individuals of the younger generation in the Long Family, otherwise, she wouldn't have been selected as one of the Ten Disciples of the Ao Generation.
Long Aoxue had truly misunderstood.
"Hmph, Sister will work hard. With Sister's cultivation, among the Ten Disciples, I am in the top three. If you even look down on Sister's cultivation, then there would be too many people to dislike."
...Who are the Ten Disciples?"
Long Aotian couldn't help but ask with a slight frown.
Undoubtedly, with his ability to Cultivate, upon returning to the Family, he would certainly be the Young Lord.
Even now, his position as Young Lord has not been replaced by anyone; in fact, everyone is unwilling to replace him, unanimously believing that he is the only suitable candidate for Young Lord.
This is the common sentiment among the Ao Generation's Family cultivation Disciples!
Currently, the growth of the Ten Disciples is quite good, but this also depends on who leads these ten people.
If it were anyone else, Long Aoxue, at fourteen or fifteen years old and at the Eighth Revolution Stage of the Spirit Spring Realm, would be proud enough. Her Martial Arts Talent could already be initially judged as at least that of a millennial Genius.
And all along, Long Aoxue has been very confident in her cultivation.
However, the Young Lord is Long Aotian, a monstrous Prodigy who reached the Ninth Revolution Peak Stage of the Golden Core Realm before he was eleven. This is even without Long Aotian mentioning that he actually formed a Purple Core, not a Golden Core, and his current strength is comparable to the Ninth Revolution Peak Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Facing such a powerful Young Lord, Long Aoxue became unsettled, even feeling that her cultivation might be disliked by Long Aotian.
Clearly, with Long Aotian as the Young Lord, their current proud cultivation as the Ten Disciples was all unqualified!
At this moment, Long Aoxue inexplicably felt a strong sense of urgency.
She wanted to Cultivate!
She must remain in the ranks of the Ten Disciples and become the strongest general under the Young Lord's command.
"The Ten Disciples are Long Aomei, Long Aoyu, Long Aolan, Long Ao Zhou, Long Aozhu, Long Ao Hong, Long Aoju, Long Aohuang, Long Aowu, and me."
"Five female Disciples?"
Long Aotian was somewhat surprised.
He didn't expect Long Aomei, Long Aolan, Long Aozhu, and Long Aoju to all be among these ten.
What a coincidence!
These five Clan Elder Sisters were all the ones who pinched his cheeks and kissed him most fiercely when he was a child.
Is this a 'doted-on younger brother enhancement squad'?
Long Aotian's mouth twitched fiercely.
With these five Clan Elder Sisters around, what status could he, this Young Lord and leader, have in front of his subordinates?
Dare to reprimand a Clan Elder Sister?
He'd be kneaded into a small cookie in minutes!
"Yes, hehe, Young Lord, I know where Meilan Zhuju (Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum) are. Should we go find them?"
"Hmm? Have they also been exposed?"
"No, when we split up into smaller groups, we told each other our hiding places, so we could help each other if we encountered difficulties."
...Alright, then let's go find them first. Do you know the hiding places of the other Family Disciples, especially the Ten Disciples?"
"Not anymore, but Meilan Zhuju (Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum) might know the hiding places of the other Ten Disciples..."
