"It feels so good to regain my strength."
A sigh came from the mouth of the weapon spirit, and the voice revealed the color of joy. She, who had been damaged for thousands of years, finally returned to the peak state of the year.
"You have to use it for me when you regain your strength." Zhao Jiuge curled his lips and said with a smile. He was in a good mood and finally showed a rare smile. After all, after Pei Susu's incident, he hadn't seen Zhao Jiuge's smile for a long time.
"Just you? Even if I let you use it, how much strength can you exert? I think you still work hard to practice. Don't weaken my reputation and make me embarrassed. My previous master's strength is stronger than yours. How much." The words of the weapon spirit woman were full of contempt for Zhao Jiuge.
"Since your previous master was so powerful, why were you still damaged and in such a state?" Now that Pixiu Immortal Jade has completely recovered, it has recognized its master with blood, and Zhao Jiuge doesn't have to worry about accidents. This has been completely accomplished. Zhao Jiuge couldn't help but refute a few words when faced with the weapon spirit woman's words.
At this moment, the Weapon Spirit woman fell into silence for a while, and then she slowly said for a long time, "When the master was about to transcend the tribulation and ascend, he encountered an enemy's plot and was attacked by three Mahayana realms. In that battle, the master's soul was completely shattered. , even many of the magic weapons on his body were damaged and scattered all over the place."
Hearing the words of the Weapon Spirit woman, Zhao Jiuge's expression changed, and he couldn't help but asked curiously, "You said that monks can really ascend to immortality? Why has no one succeeded in the past thousand years?"
"I don't know, but there were indeed many people who succeeded in ascending to the sky with Xia Xia in the past. As for where they ascended, I don't know." At the end of the sentence, the Weapon Spirit woman shook her head in confusion.
Hearing this reply, Zhao Jiuge's heart dropped. Since someone can really succeed, then Zhao Jiuge is confident. What he fears most is that working hard to the end is a hopeless thing.
"Just wait. One day, I will be more powerful than your previous master. When that time comes, I may be able to show you what it will be like after ascension." Zhao Jiuge laughed high-spiritedly, and then stopped talking to him. The weapon spirit woman continued to chat.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet?" Zhao Jiuge, who was about to get up and leave, remembered this and asked in a deep voice.
"Xiao Mo." After the Qi Ling woman finished speaking, she saw Zhao Jiuge preparing to leave and disappeared. She entered the Pixiu Immortal Jade, but she no longer thought about the same thing as before, looking down on Zhao Jiuge's cultivation. At least Zhao Jiuge's last words just now were full of determination and seemed to give him a lot of hope.
Outside the Youquan Stone Palace, there were already many people waiting. The moment Zhao Jiuge broke through the spiritual sea realm, Lianxing naturally felt it. Not only her, but also many monks with slightly higher cultivation levels felt it.
At present, news about this mysterious valley owner is circulating throughout Xiaoyao Valley. After all, the only people who have seen Zhao Jiuge's true face in Lushan are some high-level officials who stay in Xiaoyao Valley, and the high-level officials from various states have naturally not seen Zhao Jiuge. , then his attitude towards Zhao Jiuge is not very good.
After all, it was natural for a foreigner to suddenly take the position of Valley Master. When Lianxing was there, everyone was naturally more convinced of her due to her cultivation and prestige. Now everyone in Xiaoyao Valley has their own agenda. His thoughts became more active one by one, but fortunately, Mr. Tian, Wu Sanren, and several palace masters were all old people from Xiaoyao Valley. Zhao Jiuge was a disciple of Ye Wuyou, so they naturally supported Zhao Jiuge. and care, so with the support of so many advanced monks, the rebuttal voice in Xiaoyao Valley is not so obvious.
You know, the entire Xiaoyao Valley has been developing in a low-key manner for so many years, and its power is extremely powerful. There are also many monks outside who have advanced cultivation. A few days ago, it happened that the Demon Sect and Xiaoyao Valley joined forces to attack the Wandao Sect. Today, It happened that a few people took advantage of this incident and returned to Xiaoyao Valley to report the matter to Lianxing. After all, although Zhao Jiuge has the name of the owner of the valley, Lianxing is still in charge of everything.
Outside the stone palace.
The leader is naturally Lianxing, who is dressed in silver palace attire. Her exquisite face makes people dare not look directly at her. After all, the sense of majesty on her body is too strong.
Mr. Tian remained silent, stepped back slightly, and stood beside Lian Xing, but the slight relief in his weathered eyes revealed his inner mood.
Among the five scattered people, only Lu Yijian and Budai monk came. Generally, Lu Yijian rarely showed up, but it was a bit strange to appear here today.
In addition, there are three unfamiliar faces on the other side, but each of them has a good aura. Among these three, one of them, together with Mr. Tian, cooperated with the three Mahayana realms of the Demon Sect and participated in the recent actions. .
Generally speaking, when it comes to the top forces, there will be certain forces in every place, and Xiaoyao Valley is no exception. Each state has its own distribution of forces, which are constantly developing, and Xiaoyao Valley has developed so much. In terms of local forces, Naturally, there are many capable people. Like the Demon Sect, Xiaoyao Valley is also vaguely divided into two factions. This time, these three people are not so much coming back with Mr. Tian to report the situation to Lianxing, but rather showing off their power, or even It is to express dissatisfaction with Zhao Jiuge.
Lianxing, who understood everything in her heart, naturally remained silent on the surface, acting as if she didn't know anything. However, the precautions in her heart became more and more intense. Now she and Tian Lao and others were still intimidated by their strength. If they were to Without Zhao Jiuge, what will happen if he takes control of the situation alone? There is even a faint murderous intention flowing in Lianxing's heart.
The leader of the three figures was wearing a dark golden robe. He was a middle-aged man who was not angry and proud. As a new generation of forces in Xiaoyao Valley, he was definitely the leader. His cultivation level at that time was not yet high. It is outstanding and has made rapid progress in recent hundreds of years, so it has such prestige outside.
The other one is a middle-aged man with a shrewd smile on his face. This middle-aged man was originally just a casual cultivator. Later, by chance, he entered Xiaoyao Valley and made rapid progress with the help of Xiaoyao Valley's foundation.
The other one is a very low-key old man. He doesn't speak much, but his aura is slightly richer. The three of them are all from Xiaoyao Valley, but I'm afraid they haven't been to Xiaoyao Valley a few times, so naturally they don't have much sense of belonging.
"Madam, I heard that the Valley Master has changed now, but why is the aura so weak? Even if he breaks through the realm this time, he is still at the Spirit Sea realm."
Among the three people, headed by the middle-aged man wearing dark gold clothes, he asked with a smile on his face, but he didn't know what he was thinking in his eyes.
"What, is there a problem? With Jiu Ge's qualifications and diligence, plus the resources of my Xiaoyao Valley, it's only a matter of time before I can improve."
Lian Xing didn't even look at the man. He seemed a little disgusted, so his tone was a bit unpleasant.
"Madam, if you are willing to lead us, we will naturally obey your orders respectfully, but now a young boy wants to be the owner of the valley, which makes it difficult for us to accept. Besides, no one knows who he is. Are you the disciple of Master Ye Gu? What if you are pretending?"
The middle-aged man in dark gold clothes hesitated for a while, then slowly said these words.
"Be presumptuous, Valley Master, you can say whatever you want."
Before the man in dark gold clothes could finish his words, the Budai monk beside him suddenly felt his breath condensed, and then yelled at him menacingly.
"His identity is naturally problematic. Don't you still trust me and Mr. Tian? Besides, it's not me who leads Xiaoyao Valley, so you don't want to be respectful and obey my orders, huh?"
Lian Xing's tone was calm, but the majesty contained in it made the middle-aged man in dark gold clothes tense up and sweat began to flow out. Especially the last question, the tone was elongated, which made the middle-aged man feel even more... pressure.
"Madam, no, no, I didn't mean that. I'm just a little confused. When I come back this time, I firstly want to visit madam and report the situation, but also to see our new Valley Master."
The middle-aged man wearing dark gold clothes quickly spoke. After all, it was not time for him to compete head-on with Lian Xing. Not to mention how many people supported her, she only had her own cultivation in the late Mahayana realm. , which discourages too many people.
The middle-aged man with a shrewd look on his face felt his heart sink when he saw this scene. After so many years of development, their local power, although they belong to Xiaoyao Valley in name, many people are a little swollen in their hearts and do not care about Xiaoyao. Gu saw it and heard that the owner of the valley had been changed this time, so he wanted to come back to show his strength and see if he could force the palace.
In their opinion, the position of Xiaoyao Valley Valley Master has always been vacant and should be left to the powerful people to run for election. They did not expect that this time it would fall to Zhao Jiuge, a young boy, so naturally everyone began to be unconvinced.
However, a few people hit a wall as soon as they came back. They never expected that Lianxing was so determined to protect Zhao Jiuge. Mr. Tian always insisted on standing behind Lianxing. This was expected, but they didn't expect that the five scattered people, one by one, There is no dissent, some are not interested in worldly affairs, and some, like Budai Monk, prefer Zhao Jiuge.
So, the three of them looked at each other and decided to make plans in the future. After all, this time they returned to Xiaoyao Valley, they just wanted to explore and gain momentum. For this kind of monks, they are very indifferent to the cohesion of Xiaoyao Valley. After all, they have been away for a long time and have not been in Xiaoyao Valley. Having lived in the valley, there is no emotion at all, unlike some old people in Xiaoyao Valley.
Immediately, everyone stopped talking. Behind them were naturally the masters of the seven halls. They didn't really like Zhao Jiuge, the new valley master, nor did they have any dislike. As long as they could do it for him, Xiaoyao Valley is good. It doesn't matter whoever is the owner of this valley. Besides, this is also the decision of Xiaoyao Valley's senior management. They will naturally not object. Moreover, Lianxing is still in charge of the overall situation, so naturally it does not cause any turmoil.
