Chapter 23 Immortal Fate
For mortals, immortality is far more attractive than worldly power.

Therefore, Han Jia did not hesitate for long before he said, "Father, I am willing to practice with this immortal!"

After thinking for a moment, Xue Li gave the same answer as Han Jia: "My Lord, I am also willing to follow the Immortal Master to practice, but... I have to get my father's consent first!"

"It should!"

Upon hearing this, Han Wu nodded immediately.

In this day and age, the father is the leader of the son. Therefore, if Xue Li wants to become a disciple, he naturally has to seek Xue Che's opinion!

Daoxing Tianzun was also very satisfied with this.

However, when he looked at Han Yi, he couldn't help but frown.

As a Daluo Jinxian, he naturally saw at a glance that what Han Yi was practicing... was the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" created by the leader of the Jiejiao Tongtian, and not the Jindan Dao that was widely circulated among the human race.

I'm afraid he already has a master!

Moreover, there is no master-disciple relationship between him and me!

Just when Daoxing Tianzun was about to refuse Han Wu's request, Han Yi spoke first: "Father, in fact, I have been accepted as a disciple by a hermit master, and I already have a master. But the master thinks that my cultivation is too low and asked me not to show off in front of others! So, I never told you! The teacher once said that when I cultivate to the realm of refining emptiness and merging with the Tao, he will formally accept me as his disciple. Now... I am afraid that I will disappoint you and cannot take this immortal as my master!"

To be honest, he had tried to become Daoxing Tianzun's disciple in his previous life.

Can……

When accepting disciples, the Chan sect places the greatest emphasis on aptitude and aptitude.

He had poor aptitude and nothing special about his fate, so naturally he could not catch the eye of Daoxing Tianzun.

Therefore, knowing that he would be rejected, Han Yi decided to take the initiative to speak...

Avoid this embarrassment!

and……

He knew clearly that the three religions had the same origin, and others might not be able to see the skills that Han Yi practiced, but... Daoxing Tianzun, as a direct disciple of the Chan religion and a cultivator at the Daluo Jinxian realm, must be familiar with the skills of the Shangqing lineage!

Furthermore, the gap between the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation realm and the Daluo Golden Immortal is so huge that it cannot be concealed at all.

He doesn't have that means.

So, it’s better to show it openly.

Now, the great calamity of the Conferred Gods has not yet arrived, and the relationship between the Orthodox and the Demonic sects has not yet broken up. Even though the disciples of the Orthodox sect have always looked down on the disciples of the Demonic sect, he believes that, even considering the common origin of the three religions, Daoxing Tianzun will not... attack him, a small cultivator in the Qi Refining Incarnation Stage!
after all……

When it comes not to a life-and-death crisis, the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Orthodox School still have some dignity to show!

He was very sure of this!
"Ok?"

When Han Wu heard Han Yi talk about this for the first time, he seemed a little surprised.

Daoxing Tianzun's expression relaxed, and he spoke at the right time: "This young friend's master is also of great origin, not inferior to my Chan Sect. My Lord is not sure that he must become my disciple. After all, my method may not be... suitable for this young friend!"

In fact, just now, after noticing the Shangqing Dharma in Han Yi, he secretly calculated and wanted to see the cause and effect and master behind him.

but……

But nothing was found!
The Jie Religion believes in teaching without distinction and accepts disciples regardless of their background or whereabouts. As long as you can reach the Jin'ao Island, you can become a registered disciple of the Jie Religion!

However, in order to reach Jin'ao Island, one needs to cross the turbulent East China Sea... With Han Yi's current level of cultivation, it is absolutely impossible to do so.

Apparently...

The other party was able to obtain the Jiejiao's practice techniques because of the instruction from other Jiejiao disciples.

This is Daoxing Tianzun’s speculation!

Yuanshi Tianzun is the cause of all results. As his disciple, Daoxing Tianzun's ability to deduce the secrets of heaven is definitely among the top 100 in the prehistoric world.

But, that's where the problem lies!

Don’t be fooled by his nonchalant look now, but... he had already used all his skills when he was secretly deducing Han Yi’s secret just now!

Originally, he just wanted to see who Han Yi's teacher was!

but……

No matter how he deduced or what means he used, all he saw was nothingness.

This is not normal!

In this situation, in Daoxing Tianzun's opinion, there are only two possibilities!
One possibility is that Han Yi had no teacher at all, and he learned the martial arts on his own by going to Jin'ao Island.

The other possibility is that Han Yi’s teacher, whose cultivation is better than his, concealed the secret of cause and effect for Han Yi.

Now, it is not the time of catastrophe, the cause and effect of the universe are still relatively clear, and Daoxing Tianzun is still relatively confident in his own methods!

The first one was directly ruled out by him!

Because, in his opinion, it was impossible for Han Yi, a mere mortal, to reach Jin'ao Island.

As for the second type...it's worth paying attention to!

After all, in Jiejiao, the only ones whose cultivation level was higher than his were the four direct disciples and a few others such as Wuyunxian, Jinhoopxian, Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, etc. He basically knew all of them.

The other party secretly accepted a disciple and deliberately concealed the secret. Does he have any plan?

However, he didn't see anything special about Han Yi!

Daoxing Tianzun was completely puzzled by this!
"OK then!"

After hearing what Daoxing Tianzun said, Han Wu did not continue to force it.

The reason why he wanted Han Yi and Han Jia to leave together was not only because he hoped that the two could take care of each other, but also because he wanted to eliminate a competitor for Han Gui.

According to the laws of the Xia Dynasty, if Han Jia, the eldest son, leaves, Han Yi, the second son, will undoubtedly become the first heir to the title of Marquis Xuanbo!
But...

But this is not what Han Wu wants to see!

Han Yi's mother died early, his maternal family is not prominent, and in terms of background, he is far inferior to the Qingzhou Marquis behind Han Gui. If he inherits the title, he will not be able to bring any benefit to Xuan State at all!
Therefore, excluding Han Jia, the eldest son, Han Wu's favorite heir is actually his youngest son Han Gui!
but……

Han Yi is devoted to the way of immortality and has no interest in titles, so he has no influence on Han Gui.

Although Xue Li and Han Jia are not brothers, they are good friends who grew up together and can take care of each other.

He weighed the pros and cons again and again, and realized that it was not necessary to send Han Yi away!

……

Daoxing Tianzun is gone!

He gave Han Jia and Xue Li three days to bid farewell to this earthly world. After three days, he would come again and take them away from Jiuzhou.

Xue Li is gone too!
He wanted to go back to the general's mansion to discuss with Xue Che about becoming his disciple!

Han Wu prepared a family dinner and gathered all his ten sons together, hoping to see Han Jia off while also establishing a new heir.

"Father!"

Everyone greeted him in turn, then sat up straight and looked at Han Wu cautiously.

"Ok!"

Seeing this, Han Wu nodded and said straight to the point: "I believe you have also heard that your elder brother... has been valued by the immortal master of the Chan Sect and accepted as a disciple. He is about to leave the mortal world! This time, I summoned you, first, to prepare to see your elder brother Han Jia off, and second... to determine the new successor to Xuanbohou!"

When Dayu divided the princes, he established the rule that the eldest son would inherit the title.

The purpose of doing this is to maintain the stability of the dynasty.

If the eldest son dies unexpectedly, or other reasons occur that make him unable to inherit the title, the situation must be explained to the Human King and the consent of the current Human King must be obtained before a new heir to the title can be established!
otherwise……

Will be labeled as being in an improper position!

Not only will his title be revoked, but he will also be attacked by the princes of the world and become a rebel.

Hearing Han Wu's words, the youngest Han Gui immediately said, "It's a good thing that big brother has this immortal fate, thanks to the blessing of our Han family's ancestors! And according to the regulations issued by King Yu, if big brother cannot inherit the title, the second brother should be the heir. Why should father be so entangled?"

While speaking, his eyes kept looking at Han Jia and Han Yi!

A title!
To say that these bastards do not hope to one day inherit this title that symbolizes power... that is absolutely false!
but……

When Dayu divided the princes, he established clear laws and regulations for the sake of stability, so as to avoid the situation where brothers in a certain princely state...fought against each other because of fighting for a title.

In this way, even if something unexpected happens to the eldest son, there will be no civil strife in the vassal states.

And the only people who are wronged by this law are perhaps... those bastards!

after all……

Sometimes, fate is destined at birth!
Hearing Han Gui's words, Han Bing, Han Ding, Han Wu, Han Ji, Han Geng, Han Xin and Han Ren all couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile on their faces!
Yes!

Even if Han Jia is gone!
According to the laws and regulations formulated by Dayu, the title of Xuanbo Hou could not fall on them.

This is destined from birth!

Thinking of this, they looked at Han Yi with a little more envy and jealousy.

However, there was no expression of joy on Han Jia's face.

Amid the envious eyes of the crowd, Han Yi stood up and said, "Father, I am already a cultivator, and I am not suitable to inherit this title. Please choose another wise man!"

He actually refused directly!

After hearing Han Yi's words, except for Han Jia and Han Wu who had expected it, everyone else's faces couldn't help but... reveal a look of disbelief!
A title!
Did he just give up?

Han Bing, the third son of Marquis Xuanbo, was extremely pleased.

After all, Han Jia and Han Yi both want to leave the secular world. If they follow the laws made by King Yu... doesn't that mean that the title of Marquis Xuanbo... will fall on their heads?
