The Against Heaven

Chapter 4: Nine Heavenly Gate Sect (1)

News of a new main disciple had spread throughout the entire sect. The upper echelons were not happy, but they were unable to do anything with regards to this matter due to the ancient order. A useless person like Li Han Tian was only lucky, that was all.

However, the third generation was extremely nervous. The main disciple was originally one of them and should be the one with the greatest contribution as well as the one who passed all the tests given by the elders.

He would be blessed with the teachings of the sect master and gain exposure to emperor level techniques. In the end, he would most likely become a sect master in the future.

In the current situation, no one within the second generation disciples was chosen, which meant that the main disciple would definitely be chosen from the third generation disciples.

The ones who were the most rebellious were the most talented disciples with the highest talent and origin, they felt cheated by Li Han Tian. Thus, a commotion in the sect occurred.

Some geniuses angrily declared: “A mortal with a mortal physique, a mortal life wheel, and a mortal destiny palace has no right to become a prime disciple.”

Another talented youth added: “He is the biggest disgrace for our sect.”

“Who can blame him for obtaining the Ancient Order of the Heaven Sect? Even the elders have accepted it. ” Some of the older geniuses complained, but they could only accept the situation.

“Hmph, he's just a major student for now. A person without talent and strength could not compete for the seat of a sect master. Who said that the main disciple would definitely become the next sect master? The most arrogant and confident disciple shared this sentiment.

Someone who is a little excited to talk: “If he does not know right and wrong, I do not mind teaching him a little.”

Even when Li Han Tian really did not have the qualifications to compete for the seat of the sect head, it was, all the disciples still felt deceived when they had to call a useless young man like Li Han Tian “First Brother”.

A disciple curiously asked: “Isn't the last remaining Ancient Order of the Heaven Sect in Old Xi's hands? How could it fall into the hands of that little boy? ”

The fact that Old Xi had the latter was no big secret. The sect had always wanted to reclaim it, but Old Xi never agreed. This was why everyone was confused about it belonging to Li Han Tian.

Another student coldly replied: “Hehe, I heard that this brat has some intelligence, I just don't know how he fooled the old man.

“I heard that when the elders ordered people to confirm the matter, Old Xi was having fun in the brothel. It was likely that the boy invited him to play as much as he wanted to trade with the Ancient Order. ” Here, this pupil is pouting and feeling nauseous.

Hearing this story, the other disciples contemptuously exclaimed: “So he and the perverted old man are the same!”

Despite rumors saying that Old Xi was the son of a certain sect master, the entire sect did not welcome that old man who only knew how to spend money and play around. This was especially true for the third generation disciples, they did not have the slightest respect for him. If not for the will of the last sect master, he would have already been kicked out of the sect.

If Li Han Tian and Old Xi were the same type of people, then they would find Li Han Tian more ominous.

Three days had yet to pass and Li Han Tian had yet to greet the ancestor, but the sect received an invitation from the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect.

“What! The Nine Heavenly Gate Sect wants to test Li Han Tian?” Upon receiving the news, the six elders were shocked.

One of the elders became even more afraid and sadly spoke “They had heard the news so quickly. He had just become a main disciple recently, yet they already wanted to test him.”

Other elders chimed in “It looks like they want to escape the promise of the past. A piece of trash like Li Han Tian would never pass their test. That's why they want to force and speed up this problem.”

“We no longer have a choice.” The first elder reluctantly spoke: “Currently, the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect rules the entire country. We cannot compare with them, so we are not in a position to negotiate.”

His words caused everyone to fall silent. At the beginning of the Emperors Era, their sects were invincible, their reputation intoxicated the Nine Worlds, and their strength allowed them to rule the ancient kingdom. All the other sects were subject to their strength. No existence in the entire world could pose a threat to the position of the old Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect.

However, old glory disappeared as time went on. They no longer had the power to rule an ordinary country, let alone an ancient kingdom. They lost the privilege of bestowing titles such as Named Hero or Royal Noble to their followers.

Another elder asked: “What do we do now?”

All the elders knew that a human like Li Han Tian had no chance of passing the examination of the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect.

“Cure dead horses into live horses, no other choice!” Another elder replied: “If he somehow succeeds, then we will become in-laws with the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect. If this is the case, then the Heavenly God Sect and the Heavenly Gem Kingdom will not dare to look down on us.”

Towards this impossible dream, the six elders could only forcefully laugh. No matter what, they still had to try.

****************

Nan Huairen quickly reported “First Brother, the elders are calling you to the big room.”

Li Han Tian nonchalantly asked: “Did something big have happened?”

Nan Huairen was a little surprised, but he did not hide anything. He nodded and replied “I won't lie to you First Brother. The Nine Heavenly Gate Sect sent us an invitation. ”

He paused for a moment and glanced at Li Han Tian before continuing “I heard your fiance wants to test your abilities.”

“Secte Nine Heavenly Gates!” Li Han Tian suddenly recalled an old memory upon hearing the name of this sect.

Nan Huairen thought Li Han Tian did not know this sect, so he quickly explained “The Nine Heavenly Gate Sect is one of the biggest sects in the large central region. They controlled the Old Cow Country and had the right to grant the title. Our two sects used to have a friendly and close relationship. The original Patriarch of the Nine Saints used to be called the Nine Saint Virtuous Paragon. He was the number one general under Immortal Emperor Min Ren and followed him to sweep through the Nine Worlds. When we ruled the ancient kingdom, even the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect had to pay tribute to us. ”

“I have heard about the sect.” Li Han Tian gently smiled. How could he not know about the sect? Moreover, he had also met the Nine Heavenly Saints.

During the early days of the Emperor Era, Li Han Tian spent a lot of time and energy trapping this demonic monster named Nine Saint and forcing him to become the fate protector of Immortal Emperor Min Ren.

Li Han Tian asked: “Where did this fiancee come from?”

Nan Huairen replied: “From the legends when our patriarch shouldered the Will of Heaven and became an Immortal Emperor, the Paragon of the Nine Saints formed a pact with the sect. If their main offspring were women whereas we were men, we would be sons-in-law.”

After pausing for a moment, he sadly sighed: “At that moment, they rose in rank.”

“I think in the past, Old Chicken has female pupils.” After listening, Li Han Tian quietly muttered once more while recalling the past. He had forgotten about it after falling asleep because it was not a very important matter.

“What did you say, First Brother?” Nan Huairen asked because he did not hear it.

Li Han Tian smoothly avoided the question “Nothing, so their main descendant is now a woman?”

“It has been known that between our two sects, there has long been no in-law relationship. In this era, their main descendant was indeed a woman.” He paused for a moment to see Li Han Tian's expression “I also heard that their descendant, Li Shuangyan, has an innate king physique.”

Hearing Nan Huairen's story, Li Han Tian had a complete understanding of the situation. The Nine Heavenly Gate Sect naturally did not want to marry off a descendant with such talent and potential with a disciple from a descending sect.

Li Han Tian slightly chuckled: “That makes things a little more interesting.”

Nan Huairen surprisedly looked at the calm Li Han Tian. He found it strange that an ordinary boy at the age of thirteen was able to face everything like a Royal Noble who had gone through many trials.

If others were to hear Nan Huairen's words, they would become anxious, even frightened. However, Li Han Tian actually betrayed common sense and continued in an indifferent manner.

****************

The first elder coldly asked as soon as Li Han Tian entered the ancestral hall: “Did Nan Huairen tell you about the current situation?”

To be honest, the six elders did not welcome a waste like Li Han Tian. However, due to the current situation, they hoped that he would not be completely useless and that he could pass the examination of the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect through sheer luck. At this moment, the Heaven Sect really needed strong support, like being in-laws with giants like the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect. Although the chances of success were very small, they still wanted to try.

Li Han Tian lightly nodded his head: “Dear Elder, I understand completely.”

“Good! As long as you can pass the trial, we will give you an expensive reward. ” The first elder's tone of voice was ice-cold as if mocking Li Han Tian's calm demeanor.

Li Han Tian elegantly smiled and politely said: “I am very willing to attend the trial, but I have three conditions.”

“Badness!” One of the elders shouted: “You dare to negotiate in front of the elders?”
