Divine King of Honour-Chapter 237 Specializing in Trouble
Xu Nian naturally did not accept the three Outer Elders as his disciples.
After all, doing so would indeed be too shocking and unconventional.
Of course, the actions of the three elders had nevertheless left Sun Feng and Zhang Meng greatly shaken.
They must remember that both were disciples of Outer Elders.
Had Xu Nian accepted their Master as a disciple,
wouldn't they have become Xu Nian's grand-disciples?
Their seniority would have suddenly dropped by two levels!
However, this turn of events made them take Xu Nian even more seriously.
After briefly bidding farewell to Zhang Meng, Xu Nian left.
Before leaving, he made sure to inform Zhang Meng of the girl Zhang Tian's personality, hoping to warn him to be cautious.
Zhang Meng nodded, indicating that he would focus on cultivation and Artifact Refining from now on, paying no mind to other matters.
Hearing this, Xu Nian felt relieved.
He had helped as much as he could; the rest was up to Zhang Meng's own fortune.
Moreover, because of this incident, the Yingtian Gang would likely intentionally court Zhang Meng because of Xu Nian.
As long as Zhang Meng did not court disaster, his future days should be smooth sailing.
After parting with Zhang Meng, Xu Nian went with Sun Feng to report to the Inner Elder Hall.
During their brief time together, Xu Nian found that besides being a bit proud, Sun Feng was not bad in other respects.
At least after being convinced by Xu Nian's strength, he showed no ill intentions.
"Sun Feng, do you know how many Saints there are in the Artifact Refining Sect?" Xu Nian asked while walking beside Sun Feng.
"Big Brother, as far as I know, there are a total of three Saints in the Sect," Sun Feng answered truthfully. "One is our current Sect Master, and the other two are the Sect's Great Elder and the Law Enforcement Elder. As for whether there are other Saints, I am unaware."
Xu Nian was slightly surprised.
Three Saints in one Sect, no wonder they held even a Prefectural Governor in no esteem.
As for those of the Marquis Level, there were likely many more.
Xu Nian fell silent; by his estimation, the Imperial Capital Xu Family was probably even more powerful than the Artifact Refining Sect.
Otherwise, Leng Yanran would not have agreed to meet him in the Imperial Capital in two years' time.
And to rescue his mother from such a vast family would be even more difficult than he had imagined.
"It seems that in addition to rescuing Sister Yanyun, I must also prepare for my trip to the Imperial Capital in two years," Xu Nian mused to himself.
Today, the Yingtian Gang taught him a lesson.
That no matter how powerful he was alone, sometimes it did not compare to the usefulness of a force.
Hence, to confront the Xu Family, he needed to consider establishing his own force.
And the Artifact Refining Sect was the perfect soil for nurturing such a force.
To take over the Artifact Refining Sect and become the Sect Master.

By then, a force composed of a multitude of Artifact Refiners would not be taken lightly by the Xu Family.
Only then would he have the standing to negotiate with the Xu Family.
As Xu Nian contemplated these thoughts, they had already arrived at the door of the Inner Elder Hall.
The Inner Elder Hall was obviously far more luxurious than the Outer Elder Hall.
Three thousand Outer Disciples, eight hundred Inner Sect Disciples, one hundred elite disciples.
Yet the resources they enjoyed were completely inverted, which was also the Sect's method of motivating disciples.
Xu Nian and Sun Feng entered the grand hall.
At this moment, the hall was neither full nor empty.
There weren't many Inner Sect Elders, just four in total, and they usually did not handle affairs.
All matters were dealt with by Inner Sect Disciples.
They would intervene only if the disciples encountered issues they couldn't handle.
"This fellow disciple, may I ask if the Inner Sect Disciple registration is done here?" Xu Nian and Sun Feng approached a managing disciple and politely inquired.
The steward disciple was a young man around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
The young man looked up and glanced at them, his gaze lingering on Xu Nian for a moment.
"Yes, but the Inner Sect doesn't allow Inner Disciples to bring servants in with them," the young man said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian immediately knew that the young man before him had misunderstood him.
Management in the Outer Disciple was relatively lax, so some rich disciples from the Outer Sect still kept maids or servants by their side.
Obviously, the young man in front of him took him for one of Sun Feng's servants.
"Senior Brother, you've misunderstood, I'm also an Inner Disciple who passed the assessment, and this is my Identity Token." Xu Nian smiled and handed over his token.
The young man looked quite surprised, taking the token and giving Xu Nian another look.
"How old are you this year?" the young man asked.
"Seventeen!" Xu Nian replied with a smile.
The young man's pupils constricted.
All around, Inner Disciples who heard the commotion turned to look this way, their faces showing surprise.
A seventeen-year-old Inner Disciple, how is that possible?
Even the youngest Inner Disciple to enter their Sect had been twenty years old at the time, and three years had already passed since then.
That disciple had already become an outstanding Inner Disciple, hailed as the number one talent of their Inner Sect.
But now a seventeen-year-old Inner Disciple had arrived, set to break the record for the youngest disciple in the Inner Sect!
"May I ask another question?" The young man's attitude was noticeably more humble.

"Senior Brother, please feel free to ask," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"How many years ago did you enter the Outer Disciple?" the young man asked.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian laughed and held up one finger.
"Ten years?" the young man guessed.
Xu Nian shook his head.
"One year?" the young man raised his voice.
Xu Nian still shook his head.
"One month?" the young man's eyes had widened.
But Xu Nian just shook his head and laughed, "It was one day, I just entered the Sect yesterday."
The young man: "..."
One day before entering the Outer Disciple, and the next day moving straight into the Inner Sect.
Then you might as well have gone directly into the Inner Sect in the first place, why even bother making a round through the Outer Disciple?
The young man was speechless inside, convinced that Xu Nian had already achieved the level of a Little Artifact Refiner before entering the Sect.
What he didn't know was that Xu Nian's skills had just been elevated.
"All right, here is the key to your residence and some handbooks on the rules of the Inner Sect, and remember, I'm Liu Shan, you can come to me if you have any questions." The young man handed a Qiankun Bag to Xu Nian.
"Thank you, Senior Brother," Xu Nian nodded his head.
A smile appeared on Liu Shan's face.
Xu Nian didn't carry the arrogance that those geniuses possessed, so young yet not haughty, this endeared him greatly to Liu Shan.
Xu Nian also had a good impression of Liu Shan, at least he didn't act like those other fools who come up to you with a face begging to be punched.
Afterward, Liu Shan handled the entry procedures for Sun Feng, while Xu Nian shared a residence with Sun Feng.
The residences for Inner Disciples were shared by two people, much more spacious than the Outer Disciples' four to a room.
After completing the registration, Xu Nian and Sun Feng left.
However, the Inner Sect Elders Hall exploded into chaos.
"Quick, spread the news about this kid, let the whole Inner Sect know that such a talent has arrived. The Inner Sect has been quiet for too long, it's time for some waves," Liu Shan hurriedly instructed a few disciples around him.
"What about Sister Hong?" one disciple asked cautiously.
"Right, I almost forgot about her. I'll personally go and tell Sister Hong; I believe she'll be very happy to hear this news," Liu Shan snickered.
He was someone who specialized in stirring things up.
Such an opportunity was not to be missed.
