Since Jun Xiaomo didn't want to talk, the brothers and sisters at Lintian Peak had the sense to not continue asking. After all, there is a corner in everyone's heart that they don't want others to touch, and Jun Xiaomo's smiling and silent attitude says it all.
It's night, everything is quiet. Jun Xiaomo used the light of the night pearl on the table to force the zhenqi in his body into his hands. While silently reciting the formula for the conversion between zhenqi and spiritual energy, he traced the talisman in his mind on the flat talisman paper. arts.
Every hook, every stroke, every point must be completed in one go, quickly and orderly. This also requires the person who draws the talisman to have strong patience and concentration. Otherwise, if the talisman is drawn just slightly wrong, the power of the talisman will be greatly reduced. It even turned directly into a useless talisman.
After a hard pause and a gentle lift, Jun Xiaomo finally finished the last step.
She put the pen down and breathed out slowly.
In three days, she will leave Xuyang Sect with Tong Ruizhen, the fifth elder of Qingfeng Sect. Now, she just wants to seize the time to draw more talismans to be prepared - these talismans are not drawn by her for herself, but for Lintian. Everyone in Feng, especially the youngest Wei Gaolang, seemed to Jun Xiaomo to be the most uneasy one for her.
Compared with her previous life, her fate has changed a lot. Jun Xiaomo didn't know what kind of tricks people like He Zhang would come up with to deal with Lintian Peak where her father was after she left the Xuyang Sect.
It is almost impossible for He Zhang to stop. Because of Liu Qingmei, He Zhang has long been dissatisfied with Jun Linxuan. This is not a matter of a day or two, but a hatred accumulated over many years. He Zhang must let go of this hatred unless the sun rises from the west.
What's more, since the beginning of the intermediate sect qualifying competition, Lintian Peak under the leadership of Jun Linxuan has been firmly on He Zhang's head. How could He Zhang, who had lost face again and again, be able to swallow this easily? Maybe he will be thinking of some conspiracy to win back the victory.
The only thing that Jun Xiaomo is thankful for is that Jun Linxuan and Liu Qingmei are wary of He Zhang and the others, and no longer regard He Zhang as their best brother and classmate like they did in their previous life. Before they died, they never thought that the person who betrayed them would be this fellow disciple who had always been "selfless".
In this way, even if he leaves, Lintian Peak will not be so easily plotted by people like He Zhang, right? Jun Xiaomo sighed and thought.
Although he was worried about the safety of his parents and the brothers at Lintian Peak, Jun Xiaomo had to leave Lintian Peak and go to Qingfeng Sect to study.
She remembered the conversation between Jun Linxuan and her during the day -
"Xiaomo, what do you think, why don't you want to become a disciple of Qingfeng Sect?" Jun Linxuan's voice was calm, but Jun Xiaomo could still tell that Jun Linxuan was a little unhappy.
"Dad..." Jun Xiaomo didn't know how to speak. She planned to keep those things in her past life in her heart for the rest of her life. Now, should she find a suitable reason to persuade Jun Linxuan
"I just want to hear the truth." Jun Linxuan looked at Jun Xiaomo and demanded word by word.
As Jun Xiaomo's father, Jun Linxuan knew his daughter as well as the attentive Liu Qingmei. Even if Jun Xiaomo tried to hide it, he could see Jun Xiaomo's struggle and hesitation in his heart.
Jun Linxuan's words blocked Jun Xiaomo's path to finding excuses.
In the end, Jun Xiaomo could only sigh and said, "Dad, can I not tell you?" She raised her head and looked at Jun Linxuan seriously, "Dad, I know that you and my mother both hope that I can enter a high-end sect. Further studies, but have you ever thought that high-level sects are definitely suitable for me?”
Jun Linxuan frowned: "How do you know if it's suitable if you haven't been there?"
Jun Xiaomo lowered his head, pursed his lips, and stopped talking.
Looking at his stubborn daughter, Jun Linxuan was silent for a moment and said: "Xiaomo, have you ever thought about what other people would think if you refused the Qingfeng Sect elder's invitation this time, and what would happen afterwards? Such consequences.”
Jun Xiaomo's eyelashes trembled, and when he raised his head, there were some waves in his eyes.
Yes, she could certainly choose to reject the olive branch offered by Tong Ruizhen, and with this elder's character, she might not care too much about it. However, what about the other elders of Qingfeng Sect? Where are the other people in the Xuyang Sect? What's more, what about the people in the entire high-level sect
In the world of cultivation, both cultivation level and sect level have strict boundaries. If Jun Xiaomo refuses the invitation of a senior sect elder to become a disciple, he may directly offend the other elders of Qingfeng Sect.
Some people would even say that Jun Xiaomo looked down on the strength of the Qingfeng Sect, so he rejected the olive branch offered by the Qingfeng Sect. The elders of high-level sects may not all have Tong Ruizhen's ambition. By then, it would be a small matter to refuse, but it would be a big matter to establish an enemy for Lintian Peak.
This is not alarmist, but Jun Xiaomo has habitually prepared for the worst.
"Also, Xiaomo, Xuyang Sect is not peaceful now. Both my father and mother think it is a good thing for you to leave Xuyang Sect for a while."
Jun Linxuan's words were a little solemn.
Jun Xiaomo looked at Jun Linxuan with a serious expression. When he met the deep love in Jun Linxuan's eyes, Jun Xiaomo felt sour in his heart.
Ever since she was a child, Jun Linxuan had been very strict with her. In her memory, Jun Linxuan rarely smiled and often had a cold face.
To be honest, Jun Xiaomo sometimes feels that her father's treatment of her is no different from the treatment of other Lintian Peak disciples. Compared with the identity of "father", Jun Xiaomo feels that Jun Linxuan is closer to a strict master.
But now, listening to Jun Linxuan's words and seeing the solemnity and concern in Jun Linxuan's eyes, Jun Xiaomo suddenly understood that it was not that Jun Linxuan did not have "fatherly love", but that he habitually kept all his emotions deep in his heart. , it’s just not revealed so easily.
Just like now, because I have a premonition that there may be a big chaos in the sect soon, I hope to send my daughter away and stay away from this kind of chaos.
Jun Xiaomo felt like something was stuck in her throat. She suddenly felt that she should not let down her parents' wish. What's more, her parents are already wary of He Zhang. Even if she stays in the sect, she may not be able to help much.
Instead of doing this, it is better to follow the elders of Qingfeng Sect and come back to learn some things that are more conducive to protecting the peak gate, such as formations, and for example, talismans.
Jun Xiaomo made up his mind. After returning to the meeting hall, he became Tong Ruizhen's disciple. Seeing Jun Linxuan's pleased eyes, Jun Xiaomo felt that this was enough.
At least, both parents will no longer worry too much about their repeated "willfulness".
After coming back to his senses from his memories, Jun Xiaomo found that the talisman in the storage ring was flashing and emitting a faint blue light.
Taking out the musical instrument, Jun Xiaomo knocked on it, and Rong Ruihan's low and somewhat smiling voice came from the other side: "I heard that you successfully became a disciple today?"
Jun Xiaomo raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't expect that Brother Rong, you are really well informed. Let me think about it... Did Xiao Lang tell you?"
"Haha, yes, he couldn't wait to tell me about it just after congratulating you."
"Sure enough... I knew that his mouth couldn't hide things." Jun Xiaomo shook his head helplessly.
However, she would not blame Wei Gaolang. After all, these things were not unspeakable. She just felt that Wei Gaolang's "efficiency" was too high.
"How does it feel to become a disciple?" Rong Ruihan asked calmly, but it strangely made Jun Xiaomo want to talk.
"It's just so-so. I feel... not very real and not very reassured." Jun Xiaomo said with a wry smile.
"Oh why?"
"In fact, I didn't want to enter the Qingfeng Sect to practice formations and talismans at first, but my father was more insistent, and what he said made sense. If I directly rejected the elders of the Qingfeng Sect, I don't know what would happen. s consequence."
Rong Ruihan was silent for a moment and asked: "Are you unwilling to enter a high-level sect now because you are worried about the sect's affairs?"
Jun Xiaomo was stunned for a moment, shook his head and smiled: "It's true... I can't hide anything from you, Brother Rong."
"That's because Xiaomo is so good at guessing that almost everything is written on your face."
"Brother Rong, you don't see me now."
"It's about the same."
"I always feel that this is not a compliment." The smile on Jun Xiaomo's lips became even more helpless, but after Rong Ruihan interrupted her, her mood improved a lot.
From the other side of the talisman, Rong Ruihan's deep chuckle came: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let's get back to business. I think, Xiaomo, if you go to a high-level sect to study now, the advantages will actually outweigh the disadvantages. "
Jun Xiaomo was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Xiao Mo, have you ever thought about it? If Senior Jun wants to completely escape from the current situation where there are wolves in the front and tigers in the back, it is not enough to rely on the power of Lintian Peak alone. Lintian Peak There are too many enemies. In addition to those in the Xuyang Sect, there are also the Hengyue Sect and the Du family that you have offended. If you want to avoid the erosion of these powerful forces, you must have a stronger backer."
"A stronger backer?" Jun Xiaomo repeated this sentence thoughtfully.
"Yes, if you become an official disciple of Qingfeng Sect, and brother Chen Feiyu also becomes an official disciple of Hanjian Sect, Lintian Peak will have certain connections with both high-level sects. Even if He Zhang really wants to take action, You have to estimate how much you have. On the contrary, if you refuse the invitation of the elder of the Qingfeng Sect to accept a disciple this time, He Zhang will definitely think that Lintian Peak has offended the people of the Qingfeng Sect, and he will act more unscrupulously .”
"Brother Rong, you are right." Jun Xiaomo replied seriously, then smiled with relief and said, "Brother Rong, I am very glad that I did not refuse the request of the Qingfeng Sect elder. .”
Rong Ruihan also smiled on the other side, but Jun Xiaomo couldn't see his smile through the telegraph instrument.
"Just let it go. Moreover, the most important thing is that Elder Tong has a very good temper. It is quite good to have such a master."
"Brother Rong, you didn't expect me to think too much tonight, so you talked to me about life in the middle of the night, right?" Jun Xiaomo said half-jokingly.
"What if I say yes?" Rong Ruihan suddenly replied seriously.
Jun Xiaomo was stunned by the rhetorical question, and some complicated and unspeakable feelings arose in her heart—the "emotional debt" she owed Rong Ruihan seemed to be increasing.
After a moment, she replied with a very serious smile: "Thank you, Brother Rong."
"You're welcome." Rong Ruihan replied calmly.
Jun Xiaomo and Rong Ruihan smiled tacitly at the musical instrument, and the incident was ignored.
Three days passed quickly, and the day came when Jun Xiaomo officially left the Xuyang Sect.
On this day, almost all the disciples of Lintian Peak came to see Jun Xiaomo off, and Liu Qingmei's eyes were red, as if she had been crying for a long time, and it seemed as if she had not slept all night.
There was no way, this was the first time that her daughter had been away from her for so long, which inevitably made Liu Qingmei feel full of worry and reluctance.
"Mom, don't worry, I just went to another sect to study. When I get to Qingfeng Sect, I will send messages back often." Jun Xiaomo hugged Liu Qingmei and comforted her.
Now she is almost as tall as Liu Qingmei.
"Okay, you don't have to send messages back often. It's business to learn skills from the master." Liu Qingmei patted Jun Xiaomo's head and said.
Jun Xiaomo nodded, let go of Liu Qingmei, turned around and walked onto Tong Ruizhen's mount - a crane.
After bidding farewell to everyone at Lintian Peak, Jun Xiaomo said to Tong Ruizhen, "Master, let's go."
Tong Ruizhen shouted loudly, and the crane rose into the sky.
Looking at the smaller and smaller Lintian Peak below, Jun Xiaomo blinked his sour eyes, pursed his lips, and thought silently:
wait me back…
