Chapter 975 - We See Others Differently
The elders went silent, surprised they still opted to stay with them. Sometime later, Tura couldn't help but look at Wuxan to ask, "Could it be that foreigners are idiots?"
Rean's mouth twitched in response. Somehow, that Elder Tura reminded him of Sister Orb and Malaka, which were even worse. "Ahem...but if it's your sect that doesn't want us here, then we don't mind leaving either."
Suddenly, Kayla disappeared from her seat before...
*Pah!*
The sound of a slap on the back of one's head was heard..
*Ouch!*
Tura looked at the Sect Master with a wronged expression. Sadly, Kayla completely ignored her. "Don't mind this idiot here. Our sect is definitely more than happy to receive such impressive new disciples."
"Disciples?" Rean and Roan were confused as they looked at Cynthia. "Shouldn't we be guest elders?"
Cynthia was just as confused, so she asked Kayla, "Sect Master, we already have elders at the Nascent Soul Realm. Wouldn't it be weird to let these twins join the sect as disciples? After all, our strongest disciples are just in the Nascent Soul Realm as well."
Kayla shook her head as she told Cynthia, "No can do. They are way too young to be elders. Haven't you noticed yet? The elders at the Nascent Soul Realm are all above a hundred years old already. They have a lot of experience to not be abusive of their positions. That's why we allowed Nascent Soul Realm elders."
Tura found it weird, muttering, "I thought we made them elders because we were shorthanded."
*Pah!*
*Ouch!*
"Shut up! If you speak again, don't blame me for sending you to the sect's gold mine," Kayla told her with a dark expression.
With that, Tura closed her mouth and didn't say a single word anymore. The other elders all sighed in response, but none seemed to be surprised with how Tura and Kayla acted. It was obvious that it was a common event.
As for Rean's group, Rean wasn't the only one thinking that Tura looked a lot like Malaka or Sister Orb. The rest of them had the same impression in their minds. 'This Sect Master truly has a hard time. Respect, respect...'
"Ahem..." Kayla then returned to her seat once more before continuing, "That's what I wanted to say. We definitely want to receive you four, but it has to be as disciples. Of course, we'll give you an access level almost equivalent to an elder. If you want to use the sect's formations, ask for something in the side occupation halls or the other areas, and you will be free to do so. As long as you provide the materials and don't go overboard, you can do as you wish."
Well, for Rean and Roan, that was more than enough. They would be able to use the sect's connections to investigate more about the Realm of Gods. That was pretty good for them already. "Err...sure, that's fine with us. If you don't mind having disciples with high cultivation, then we'll join that way."
Rean then looked at Kentucky and Celis after that before asking, "What about our friends here? They're obviously not the same as the other demon beasts. First of all, they don't really have any masters, nor would they accept one to start with since they have sentience."
As soon as Rean asked that, an elder's eyes lit up. His name was Kurt, the elder responsible for the Beast Taming Hall. The Beast Taming Hall didn't have any demon beasts at Stage Five, but they still got to tame a few to help with the sect's heavy tasks. "Oh, do you mind if I take your friends to help?"
Kentucky and Celis looked at Kurt with a confused expression. "Help with what?"
"You two are demon beasts...well, one's a demon tree but is still categorized under the demon beast name. Anyway, your presence in the Beast Taming Hall will make it a lot easier to control and tame the new demon beasts. After all, your auras will intimidate the others. I'm willing to pay three Divine Stones per month if you accept." Kurt seemed pretty adamant to have them both as three Divine Stones just to stay in the Beast Taming Hall was a lot.
Kentucky and Celis looked at the twins, but Rean and Roan simply shrugged their shoulders, with Rean telling them, "What are you looking at us for? That's your decision, not ours. You don't even need to stay in the same sect as us if you don't want to."
Celis then looked at Kurt before asking, "I want to take root in this sect, and my roots are quite big. Will that be a problem?"
Kurt immediately shook his head as he replied, "We are an underground sect, so there is simply no lack of earth for your roots to expand. As long as they don't reach any restricted area or cause any trouble, you can expand them as much as you want. Of course, I'll show you where the restricted areas are for you to prevent touching them."
Celis nodded, soon responding, "That's fine by me, then. I'm the type that simply takes root and cultivates. You won't see me moving unless extremely necessary."
Since Celis would stay there with Kentucky's nest, Kentucky obviously accepted as well. "The same goes for me. Celis has the best branches for a nest, so we always stay together."
"Great!" Kurt was ecstatic. "I was planning to try to tame a Stage Five Demon Beast, but it would be too hard to keep it under control. As long as you two are close, it will increase my chances by a lot."
It was then that Kurt remembered something. "Err...sorry, I forgot to ask. Does it bother you two that we're taming demon beasts here?"
Kentucky and Celis looked at each other before shaking their heads. Celis then took the opportunity to explain, saying, "You seem to have the wrong idea about us. Sure, you put us all under the same name, demon beasts, but we are, in fact, different races. If it's not a member of our own race, we simply see the other demon beasts from other races the same way we see humans, Lakures, Turals, Qingones, and so on. We simply don't care."
"Well, that makes sense." Kurt couldn't be blamed. After all, he had never talked with sentient demon beasts before. "Then, I'm counting on your help."
