Wu Shattered Star River

After a little over half an hour, the beautiful girl who had been covered in ice returned.

The wretched little fatty also came back, with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

For some reason, the beautiful girl's anger had dissipated, and she actually returned with him.

Niu Meng, with oil all over his mouth from eating, also happened to return to the courtyard.

Zuo Yiyi quickly gathered everyone and began introducing Jiang Han: "Jiang Han, this is Sister Bing, Qi Bing.

She is the strongest fighter in our Godslayer Squad, at the seventh level of the Profound Origin Realm, and possesses the Ice Divine Power."

Jiang Han was filled with reverence.

No wonder the entire backyard turned into an icehouse when Qi Bing got angry; it turned out she had comprehended the Ice Divine Power.

She looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, yet she had already reached the seventh level of the Profound Origin Realm.

This was an absolute genius.

Jiang Han quickly greeted her, but Qi Bing, true to her name, didn't return the greeting.

She merely glanced at Jiang Han with an extremely cold expression.

Zuo Yiyi explained with a smile, "Sister Bing's personality is a bit cold, but she's the best person."

Zuo Yiyi pointed at Niu Meng and said, "You've met Niu Meng.

Although he's a bit slow, his combat power is still very strong; you'll find out later."

Jiang Han cupped his fist in salute, and Niu Meng scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly, looking simple and lovable.

Finally, Zuo Yiyi pointed at the wretched little fatty and said, "This one is called Jiang Lang, at the third level of the Profound Origin Realm, and is a Yellow-Rank High-Grade Divine Inscriptionist.

Jiang Han… be careful of him; he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

Don't let him sell you out and have you counting the money for him."

Jiang Lang was about the same height as Jiang Han, and about the same age, but his weight was probably twice Jiang Han's.

His little potbelly looked like that of a woman four months pregnant.

His face was swollen like a pig's head, and when he heard Zuo Yiyi's words, he immediately stood up with a serious expression and said, "Captain, what nonsense are you talking about?

Although I like to swindle and deceive, it's always directed at outsiders.

When have I ever deceived our own people?"

After speaking, he turned his head and smiled at Jiang Han, then glanced at Jiang Li, who was standing timidly beside him, and said, "Brother Jiang Han is a talented and handsome man.

I feel an instant connection with you."

"Since you were brought back by the Captain, then you are my sworn brother from now on.

I'll call you Big Brother from now on, and you can call me Brother-in-Law!"

Jiang Lang was so enthusiastic that Jiang Han was about to exchange a few polite words when he heard the last sentence, and his expression immediately darkened.

Before he could say anything, Zuo Yiyi slapped Jiang Lang on the back of the head, knocking him out of the hall.

Zuo Yiyi glared at Jiang Lang and said, "Jiang Fatty, Jiang Li is my sister from now on.

If you dare to have any improper thoughts about her, I'll skin you alive."

"Just kidding, just kidding!"

Jiang Lang walked back in with a smile, bowing and scraping as he said, "Brother Jiang, don't be angry.

That's just how I am; I like to joke around.

Your sister is my sister; if anyone dares to touch her, I'll fight them to the death."

"Alright!"

Zuo Yiyi ordered Jiang Lang, "Take Jiang Han to complete the procedures.

From now on, he's a member of our Godslayer Squad.

As for Jiang Li, get her a miscellaneous servant status; as for how to do it, figure it out yourself."

"Also, help them clean up a courtyard and familiarize themselves with the environment.

I'll be out for half a month; my mom must be worried; I'll go see her first."

Qi Bing then spoke, "Aren't you going to Dragon King Peak to dig for spiritual herbs?

Why did it take half a month?"

Zuo Yiyi smiled somewhat awkwardly and said, "I got lost and wandered over to Dujia Town… but it's also fortunate, otherwise how could I have met a genius like Jiang Han?"

"Genius?"

Qi Bing glanced over again, somewhat skeptical, but didn't ask further.

Zuo Yiyi didn't explain, waved her hand, and strode away.

Qi Bing turned around and returned to her own courtyard, while Niu Meng's eyelids drooped, and he clearly began to doze off again.

Jiang Lang sized up Jiang Han with a smile and said, "Jiang Han, you're amazing.

Zuo Pingping rarely praises people, yet she actually said you're a genius, so you must have extraordinary talent!"

"Zuo Pingping?"

Jiang Han was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized that Jiang Lang was subtly mocking Zuo Yiyi's flat chest.

On the way here, Jiang Han had already learned that Zuo Yiyi looked like a loli on the outside, but was actually a year older than him.

At seventeen years old, she was still so unremarkable, indeed there was no room for development, and the name Zuo Pingping was quite fitting…

Jiang Han was new here and naturally didn't dare to be high-profile.

He shook his head and said, "That's Young Pavilion Master overpraising me.

I'm sixteen years old this year, at the seventh level of the Violet Palace Realm; this level of talent is probably at the bottom of the Cloud Dream Pavilion, right?"

"Uh…"

A suspicious look appeared on Jiang Lang's face.

If it was really just as Jiang Han said, then this level of talent could indeed only be considered mediocre among the disciples of the Cloud Dream Pavilion.

Why did Zuo Yiyi have such a high evaluation of Jiang Han?

And even recruited him into the Godslayer Squad?

"Let's go complete the procedures first."

Jiang Lang didn't ask further.

Although Zuo Yiyi had a bad temper, she wasn't stupid.

She wouldn't recruit a mediocre person into the Godslayer Squad, otherwise this squad wouldn't only have four people.

He led Jiang Han and Jiang Li towards the outside.

On the way, they encountered many Cloud Dream Pavilion disciples, who either detoured far away when they saw Jiang Lang, or showed expressions of disdain, resentment, shame, and ridicule.

They walked all the way and encountered more than twenty disciples, yet not a single one was friendly.

Jiang Han secretly felt ominous again.

It seemed that Zuo Yiyi and the Godslayer Squad weren't well-received in the Cloud Dream Pavilion, and he didn't know why.

Jiang Lang didn't care, as if he was used to it.

The three of them arrived at the courtyard of the Internal Affairs Hall, and Jiang Lang swaggered in with the two of them.

Inside the hall, a middle-aged man was sitting behind a desk.

He slightly raised his head and glanced at Jiang Lang, then acted as if he hadn't seen him and continued to bury himself in reading documents.

"Steward Chen!"

Jiang Lang cupped his fist in salute and said, "This is Jiang Han, a newly recruited member of our Godslayer Squad.

Please complete the procedures for him to join the Pavilion."

Steward Chen ignored him and continued to handle official business.

Jiang Lang shrugged and signaled Jiang Han to be patient.

It wasn't until a full incense stick of time had passed that he raised his head, glanced at Jiang Han, and said coldly, "Name, age, realm, origin?"

Jiang Han quickly cupped his fist in salute and said, "Reporting to Steward, my name is Jiang Han, I am sixteen years old this year, at the seventh level of the Violet Palace Realm, and I am from Jiangjia Town."

"Sixteen years old? Violet Palace Seventh Level?"

Steward Chen murmured, then waved his hand and said, "This year, the Pavilion has almost finished recruiting new disciples.

Your realm is too low and does not meet the requirements for joining the Pavilion, leave."

"This?"

Jiang Han was dumbfounded.

The members personally recruited by Zuo Yiyi were actually not allowed to join the Pavilion by the Internal Affairs Hall?

Could it be that Han Shiqi had returned?

Had this steward received Han Shiqi's orders?

Jiang Han remembered that Han Shiqi was the Hall Master of the Internal Affairs Hall.

Jiang Li's face turned pale.

Jiang Han couldn't join the Cloud Dream Pavilion?

Then their brother and sister might be driven out.

At that time, they might be hunted down by Han Shiqi, and their brother and sister's lives would be in danger.

Jiang Lang patted Jiang Han on the shoulder and cupped his fist towards Steward Chen, saying, "Steward Chen, when our Godslayer Squad was first established, the Pavilion Master personally gave the order that we could recruit members ourselves.

Could it be that this small matter… requires us to ask the Pavilion Master to come forward?"

"The Pavilion Master did issue such an order!"

Steward Chen said expressionlessly, "But the Godslayer Squad is an elite squad of the Combat Hall.

Can just anyone be recruited?"

"Not to mention the Profound Origin Realm, at least the Violet Palace Ninth Level is required, right?

Otherwise, what would the other elite squad members think when this gets out!

There's no need to say more about this matter, I will have the same opinion even if the Pavilion Master comes."

Jiang Han's expression darkened.

It seemed that even if Han Shiqi hadn't returned, the Internal Affairs Hall must have received the news.

Otherwise, an ordinary steward wouldn't be so arrogant and not leave any room for discussion.

He was even more puzzled in his heart.

Could it be that this Pavilion Master, Ling Yunmeng, was fake?

How could Zuo Yiyi's status in the Cloud Dream Pavilion be so low?

Even a steward of the Internal Affairs Hall dared to defy her face.

"Good! Very good!"

Jiang Lang laughed out of extreme anger, grabbed Jiang Han, and was about to walk out.

At the door, he said, "Then I can only have the Young Pavilion Master come and reason with you in person."

"Wanting to join the Pavilion through an exception is not without a solution…"

At this moment, Steward Chen suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Since he wants to join the Godslayer Squad, then he must have extraordinary skills.

If he can persist in the Seven Kill Formation for an incense stick of time, this steward can make an exception and let him join the Pavilion."

"Don't say this steward is too harsh; isn't he at the seventh level of the Violet Palace Realm?

He can be tested by seven Violet Palace Seventh Level martial artists."

"Seven Kill Formation?"

Jiang Lang's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Jiang Han with some hesitation.

Jiang Han blinked his eyes and asked, "What is the Seven Kill Formation?"

Jiang Lang explained a few words in a low voice, and Jiang Han smiled calmly and said, "Alright, I accept the test!"

"Are you sure?"

Steward Chen's eyes revealed a stern look, and he said, "Swords and sabers have no eyes.

If you are accidentally killed during the test, don't blame others."

"Hehe!"

Jiang Han shrugged and said, "If they can kill me, that's their skill!"

"Good!"

Steward Chen stood up and shouted, "Someone, have the Combat Hall arrange seven Violet Palace Seventh Level martial artists to set up the Seven Kill Formation!"
