Chapter 487: Deacons

Yin Long came back to the God Sword Region\'s castle and he immediately called Gu San and Ka Wayan. The two old men were surprised when they saw the sweaty face of Yin Long. They wondered what this guy encountered outside for him to be like this.

"What happened, Brother Yin Long? Did the Celestial Paragon Tower ambush you?" The thin old man, Ka Wayan, asked with a frown.

Yin Long shook his head. He suddenly smiled and said eagerly. "Follow me! You will be surprised by what I\'ve discovered!"

Gu San and Ka Wayan glanced at each other with surprise. Yin Long was usually calm, so it was a bit shocking for them to see him act like this.

"Brother Yin, just what did you discover?" The fat old man, Gu San, asked with a perplexed look.

Yin Long grabbed the two old men and said. "I\'ll explain later! Go with me to the dragon building first! When we arrive there, you\'ll know what I\'m talking about! Besides, this might be an opportunity for our God Sword Region!" There was a trace of expectation in his eyes as he said this. He saw hope when met Jiu Shen! Although he hasn\'t stepped into the Celestial God Realm, based on Jiu Shen\'s qualifications, it was only a matter of time for him!

Hearing this, the eyes of Gu San and Ka Wayan flashed with radiance.

"Alright! We trust you, Brother Yin! But if you\'re just wasting our time, I promise that I\'ll beat you up after I reach the mid stage of the Heavenly God Realm!" Gu San put on an ugly smile as he gave Yin Long a warning look. Every time he sparred with Yin Long, he would always end up beaten up.

Yin Long chuckled at his words. "Don\'t worry, Brother Gu San. You will be surprised later..." He muttered with a mysterious look.

Gu San and Ka Wayan felt their fists itch when they saw his expression.

"Come on! Let\'s go!"

"A mirror?" Corpse Lord and Serek both muttered in surprise when they saw Theia taking out a door-like mirror. It was like a portal that leads to a different location, but they could sense that something was different about this thing.

Theia saw the confusion in their eyes, but she didn\'t bother to explain things to them. This is the Mirror of Truth and Deceit and it could read the minds and hearts of anyone who try to pass through it. If their hearts and minds didn\'t have any malicious intentions, they would be able to pass through the mirror.

"This is the Mirror of Truth and Deceit. This is your only test. If you pass this test, you will become armored guards and also members of our Heavenly Sword Tower! We will start with you. What\'s your name?" Theia asked as she pointed at Serek.

"Ah, my name is Serek, Vice Sect Master!" Serek introduced himself. Although this blonde-haired young lady has the same cultivation level as him, he didn\'t dare understand her. Even the armored guard who had the strength of Supreme God Realm was respectful to her!

"Serek? Alright. Step into the mirror!" Theia said in a commanding voice.

Serek nodded his head at Theia. He then slowly walked in front of the Mirror of Truth and Deceit. It looked like a Teleportation Array Formation, but the more he went closer to it, the heavier his heart has become. This feeling made him nervous, but he didn\'t stop walking toward the mirror. \'We were sent here by Wine Master Jiu Shen to be tested, so this mirror should not be dangerous.\' He consoled himself.

Serek\'s heart almost stopped when he was just a few inches away from the mirror. The moment he stepped into it, he felt as if he was stripped naked with everything about him being scrutinized by an invisible force! The feeling was weird and uncomfortable at the same time, but it only happened for a second.

When Serek opened his eyes, he realized that he had come out to the other side of the mirror. "What just happened?" He glanced at Theia and asked her in confusion.

Theia\'s cold expression slightly eased up when she stared at Serek. She nodded her head at him and said. "Congratulations! You passed the test!"

"Huh? I... What?!" Serek exclaimed in surprise, but he immediately smiled joyfully.

"Thank you, Vice Sect Master!"

Theia ignored the grateful Serek and moved her gaze towards the old man, Corpse Lord. "What\'s your name?" She asked.

Corpse Lord wanted to say \'Corpse Lord\', but that wasn\'t his name. It was only a title that people call him. He cleared his throat and answered. "My name is Garyun. I\'m a Necromancer and an Alchemist."

Theia nodded her head calmly. Though she was a bit surprised when the old man revealed that he was also an Alchemist. "Enter the mirror!" She said coldly.

Garyun nodded his head with a solemn look. He saw the entire process of Serek stepping into this mirror, but he still had no idea what this mirror was capable of doing. He thought their test would be something difficult, but they were actually given a weird test.

As he drew nearer to the mirror, Garyun\'s face changed. He felt an unknown force sweeping his consciousness! If he was to describe how it felt, it was like he was electrocuted for a short moment. He unconsciously closed his eyes and when he opened them, he saw the cold-faced Vice Sect Master revealing a light smile. She looked beautiful, but Garyun immediately looked away from her. \'She might be Wine Master Jiu Shen\'s wife...\' He concluded.

"You also passed the test! Congratulations! Now, I officially announce that the two of you will become the newest armored guards of the dragon building and also new members of our Heavenly Sword Tower! With your cultivation level, you can already become Elders of the sword tower, but I can\'t do that. We have to follow the rules set by Jiu Shen himself, so I could only appoint you guys as deacons for now. Also, as the new deacons of the..." Theia began to explain their new position and also the job attached to it. Garyun and Serek listened to her with serious faces.
