I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 446 - 408 Fake News
Chapter 446: Chapter 408 Fake News
In the world, there are countless people with high talent. What virtues does Mei Xianfu possess to be favored by Elder Zhang?
Elder Mei is no fool. He understood that there might be reasons for this—after all, he is at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul, and Elder Zhang accepting Mei Xianfu as a True Disciple is akin to befriending himself.
But apart from this, Tang Zhi’s mediation is absolutely indispensable.
However, Elder Mei did not hasten to thank him; instead, he demanded more, saying: "I have another question—aside from my granddaughter Mei Xianfu, young friend Tian Lin has yet to be assigned a rank;
What is Elder Tang’s opinion?"
Tian Lin spent half a year in the Immortal Sinking Pond and never participated in the sect’s examination.
Although he later returned to the sect, he entered a secret realm. After leaving the secret realm, he ascended the Life and Death Platform—
Due to these delays, it is still unclear whether Tian Lin is an Inner Sect Disciple or an Outer Disciple.
"Tian Lin?"
Upon hearing this name, Tang Zhi frowned, unaware that Elder Mei’s murderous intent had surfaced.
"Tian Lin’s strength is undeniable, having defeated my wife. In my opinion, he is qualified to be a True Disciple."
These words surprised Elder Mei, prompting him to ask: "Tian Lin can really become a True Disciple?"
It’s not that Elder Mei doubts Tian Lin’s talent, but Tian Lin’s foundation is simply too shallow.
Throughout the Wenda Sect, Tian Lin has no aristocratic family support. Not only that, he has made quite a few enemies.
Elder Mei’s view is that it suffices for Tian Lin to become an Inner Sect Disciple. But judging from Tang Zhi’s view, Tian Lin seems to have a chance at becoming a True Disciple.
"This matter is somewhat difficult, but I’m willing to offer my assistance!"
Elder Mei felt Tang Zhi was merely placating him, but it was better to aim high.
Tang Zhi’s offer to run errands for Tian Lin regarding the True Disciple affair, though possibly perfunctory, implied that Tian Lin becoming an Inner Sect Disciple was assured.
His intention in coming was to test whether Tang Zhi harbored any intent of revenge against Tian Lin. So far, he couldn’t perceive any flaws in Tang Zhi’s facade.
"As for Tian Lin becoming a True Disciple, I’ll leave it to you to act within your capabilities!"
After saying this, Elder Mei continued: "My daughter becoming a True Disciple is entirely thanks to your help. As someone with a conscience, I wish to offer the clues to the Dharma Manifestation True Pill as a gesture of gratitude!"
The Dharma Manifestation True Pill can assist Golden Core cultivators in achieving Nascent Soul cultivation; its preciousness is undeniable.
Indeed, Tang Zhi was visibly moved as he looked at Elder Mei.
He opened his mouth but ultimately shook his head: "The Dharma Manifestation True Pill is too valuable. What I did doesn’t deserve such a pill. This elixir should be reserved for young Mei!"
Elder Mei was not honestly planning to give the Dharma Manifestation True Pill to Tang Zhi.
The so-called clue to the Dharma Manifestation True Pill was actually a false lead that meant certain death.
If Tang Zhi were truly greedy and followed his lead to obtain the elixir, even with Nascent Soul cultivation, he would undoubtedly die.
However, whether Tang Zhi saw through Elder Mei’s intentions or was truly selfless—he ended up refusing nonetheless.
"If so, I owe you a favor. As long as you don’t betray me, should you need help in the future, just write to the Goddess Sect, and I won’t refuse."
Elder Mei finished speaking and placed a Contract Paper bearing Houtu’s Rune before Tang Zhi.
This Contract Paper was no ordinary paper, but one marked by the Houtu Rune.
It can be said that Elder Mei’s words were absolutely not false. As long as Tang Zhi did not oppose Elder Mei thereafter, he would be willing to assist Tang Zhi.
This time Tang Zhi made no refusal; he received the Contract Paper from Elder Mei, bowed and said: "Then I accept begrudgingly! Only, as for whether Tian Lin can become a True Disciple, I cannot guarantee at this time."
Elder Mei replied straightforwardly: "It is very hard for Tian Lin to become a True Disciple, whether or not he succeeds, I will appreciate your effort!"
Elder Mei could extract no more information, so he bowed and took leave of Tang Zhi.
He finally returned to Tian Lin’s cave mansion, where the long-waiting Mei Xianfu had grown impatient. Before her grandfather could sit, she already ran to him, holding his arm and asking: "Grandfather, was it really Tang Zhi who caused the death of his wife?"
Elder Mei shook his head and said: "I can’t discern Tang Zhi’s true nature. The only thing certain is that he is undeniably capable."
He added: "Elder Zhang of the Wenda Sect has little rapport with anyone, yet ultimately agreed to preside over Tian Lin and Elder Wu’s life-and-death duel. This privilege is likely extended not for Sect Master Tang, nor Elder Wu, but for Tang Zhi." frёeωebɳovel.com
He continued to tell Mei Xianfu: "Soon, accompany me to Wan Zhang Peak. From now on, you will apprentice under Elder Zhang as his Closed-door Disciple."
Mei Xianfu understands the importance of the True Disciple status.
Without mentioning anything else, having the status of a True Disciple means she can enter and exit the secret realm without relying on Tian Lin.
"As for Tian Lin—let some time pass, even if he doesn’t become a True Disciple, he should easily become an Inner Sect Disciple."
From the side, Tian Lin, who hadn’t spoken, raised his head surprised, said: "This is Tang Zhi’s opinion?"
Elder Mei nodded and said: "That’s why I say Tang Zhi is quite capable—he not only managed to help Mei Xianfu secure a True Disciple position, but even for you—he seems to have some confidence."
The position of True Disciple is not easily attained, as it can be said to be pre-determined for aristocratic families’ children.
Countless aristocratic families’ children covet such positions, and these families are interlinked through marriage.
How could they possibly give the True Disciple position to an outsider like Tian Lin, who has no backing?
He doesn’t have a Nascent Soul grandfather who can rush over from the Goddess Sect anytime to support him.
Not to mention True Disciple, even the Inner Sect Disciple position is reserved for aristocratic families’ children. That Tang Zhi can help Tian Lin secure an Inner Sect Disciple position demonstrates not only ability but also his magnanimity.
But Tian Lin didn’t believe there truly existed such magnanimity and broad-mindedness!
Speaking not only of vengeance for a wife, but even killing a son—even though Tian Lin didn’t kill his eldest son, the one who did was Tian Lin’s sword holder; how could Tang Zhi not resent Tian Lin?
"Could it be I judged him with a small-minded heart, assuming malice in my benefactor?"
Tian Lin frowned, and Elder Mei beside him said: "Your concern is not unwarranted; in the Cultivation World, one must always be cautious."
Elder Mei distrusts human nature; hence, he often carries Contract Paper marked by Houtu. Compared to human hearts, he trusts the vows made before Houtu more.
"If Mei Xianfu becomes a True Disciple, it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to continue living here with me."
Tian Lin smiled and made a formal bow to Mei Xianfu, saying: "I congratulate Senior Sister Mei on such achievement."
Addressing Mei Xianfu as Senior Sister again, he pleased Mei Xianfu greatly.
She said: "I’m going to Wan Zhang Peak and will need a sword holder, so consider this in place of other congratulations. How about leaving Cui’er with me?"
Tian Lin had cheerfully offered congratulations, but at this point, he shook his head.
Mei Xianfu said: "As expected, you only speak empty words. When it comes to substantial matters, you are tight-fisted."
Tian Lin said: "Other things can be discussed, even if Senior Sister Mei wanted the Divine Lady Tree seeds, I could find a way; but for Cui’er—Cui’er may be my sword holder, but her decision to stay or leave has always been her own, so how could I presume to make that choice?"
"Fine, let Cui’er decide for herself."
