Just like the Penglai Xian School opened a branch of the Penglai North School in Beiningzhou, Danxinyuan is also a school in Zhongshengzhou, and it also opened a branch in Beining, called Danxin Bieyuan.
And the matter between Qi Jibai and Dan Xinyuan in those days is very simple now.
After he was sent to Danxin Bieyuan, he proposed several measures that were beneficial to Bieyuan, but moved the interests of several noble families, so he was regarded as a thorn in the eyes of some fellow students, and was targeted everywhere, and finally even set up ambush and framed him, making him suffer Seriously injured, even Dougie was damaged. After being rescued, he realized that the person in charge of Dan Xinyuan had long been aware of these things, but he always turned a blind eye.
In a fit of anger, Qi Jibai broke through the door decisively and said that famous sentence.
"The sect has failed me, why should I not fail the sect?"
It was just such a sentence, which caused quite a stir in the cultivation world at that time, and there was a lot of controversy for a while. At the end of the dispute, Qi Jibai's understanding and sympathy prevailed, and Dan Xinyuan knew that he was right, and did not dare to embarrass him and the Shui Yunzong who stood up to accept him.
But after the incident subsided, few people will pay attention to how such a person who has already destroyed the foundation and is destined to be unable to make further progress in this life will spend the next days in the new sect. Fortunately, Shui Yunzong treated him fairly well, although he didn't take it seriously, at least he never insulted him.
When Wenxuan recalled these events, he was filled with emotion and sigh.
He didn't know why Jian Jian suddenly mentioned that sentence, he thought it was just a casual question, and naturally he didn't take it too seriously. As a matter of urgency, Wen Xuan hurried to the inner gate, wandered at the foot of Hengyun Peak where the main hall was located, and indeed found Shi Buhui who came back first.
It was extremely coincidental that just when he discovered Shi Buregai, a person came out of the hall, and it happened to be the elder Qi Ji Baiqi who had just met before.
Seeing him, Qi Jibai nodded to him, and left without slowing down. Looking at the direction, it is to go to the outer door.
After watching Qi Jibai leave, he looked at the hall again, but the door was still closed, and it was obvious that there were still people discussing matters inside. Wen Xuan had no choice but to lower his escape light first, "Junior Brother Shi!"
It was only then that Shi Bugui noticed him, and nodded quickly, still in his usual dull state.
This junior started late, and now he has only just entered the foundation-building stage. Facing the senior brother Wenxuan, he is still a little bit cowardly from time to time, and he is not even as generous as some outside disciples. If it weren't for his excellent talent, he would have been spotted by the head at a glance, and he might have been a bullied master.
Wen Xuan smiled helplessly, and didn't think too much of greetings, so he directly asked about the ancient relics.
As a result, Shi Bugui was kept in the back because his cultivation was too low, and he never followed those Ningyuan elders to see it deeply. Fortunately, he still heard what the elders said about the general situation.
"There are indeed two prohibitions. They broke the second one and found a lot of exercises."
Wen Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"There is a third prohibition behind." Shi Bugui followed closely and said, "But they just looked at it and said it's best to stay still for the time being, so they came back directly."
"The third way?" Wen Xuan frowned slightly.
"It is said that it takes the peak of Ning Yuan to break it." Shi Bugui explained this, and added in a low voice, "This time I also met people from the North Penglai faction. But the North Penglai faction seems to have no interest in the Water Element, so I just stared at it. With that third prohibition, he also said that he would go back and invite Master Yuan Ying to come and sit down."
The prohibition that can only be broken by the peak of condensing Yuan, but requires the real person of Yuan Ying to come over? This is obviously not for the ban itself, but to guard against something after the ban.
Wenxuan thought for a moment, he was going to ask something more, but saw Shi Buregai's eyes blank, obviously he didn't know more. Wen Xuan couldn't help laughing, and sincerely thanked him. He planned to go back first, and then come directly to visit the Sect Master after a while.
"Senior Brother Wen." At this moment, Shi Buhui asked again, "Does the things behind the third prohibition really have to be handed over to the North Penglai faction?"
"Although I don't know if there is any agreement between Zongmen and Penglai North, but I think it is absolutely impossible for us to give up." Wen Xuan smiled, "Those elders would not agree to this agreement. After all, it is something left by those who have entered the Dao with Shui Linggen, and our Shuiyun Sect should need it the most."
Shi Bugui nodded, "So our sect will also let Master Yuan Ying sit in the past?"
With a click, Wen Xuan's smile froze on his face just as the words fell.
"Are you going to let Master Chu come back?" Shi Bugui raised his head and asked sincerely.
Wenxuan clenched his fists subconsciously, gritted his teeth, and finally regained his normal expression, "Master has been wandering abroad for a long time. I don't know if he will come back because of this matter."
Shi Bureg lowered his head, and there was a lot of regret on his face. He started too late, and he had never seen Chu Lian Zhenren's demeanor, so he couldn't help but yearn for it, "If only Master Chu came back. I really admire his stories back then, when he and Ye Zhenren were together..."
"Junior Brother Shi!" Wen Xuan shouted loudly and stopped him abruptly.
Shi Bureg closed his mouth with a blank expression on his face.
Wen Xuan turned his head nervously and stared at the Daiyun Peak where he lived for a moment, as if confirming that the owner of the Daiyun Peak had not returned. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, raised his face, and warned solemnly, "That's all for now. In case Master does come back, remember, don't mention that person again, not a word."
that person? Is Ye Zhenren? Shi Buhui couldn't help but feel more at a loss.
"If Master really wants to come back, the head and uncle will definitely remind you." Wen Xuan gradually eased his expression and tone, and explained in a low voice, "Master, he... Since that person fell, he has not been able to hear this name. already."
And when Ye Zhenren was still alive, Chu Lian accompanied him every day, and I don't know how many monsters and monsters they have killed together. It is said that even the descendants of the heavenly demons have captured one. At that time, they were called the two immortals of Beining, and they were always in the limelight. But all this, after one of them left, became the scar of the other.
Wen Xuan moved his lips and was about to say something, but saw the door of the main hall opened again, and several elders who had been with Shi Buhui walked out from inside.
This should have been reported to the head of the harvest of this trip
Wen Xuan suddenly didn't know whether to be excited or nervous. He quickly said goodbye to Shi Buhui, and before flying to the gate of the palace, he raised his hand and hit the spiritual energy to enter.
While waiting, he shook his palm, his palms sweaty.
It should only be a short period of time, but when the head Ji Ziang called him in, he felt like he had waited for several lifetimes.
It was not until after passing through the long corridor and finally seeing Ji Ziang wearing the robe of the Sect Master, Wen Xuan was able to hold his breath a little and bowed respectfully.
"Xuan'er, you came just in time." Ji Ziang laughed, "I have some good news to tell you."
"When the disciple came, he happened to meet Uncle Qi." Wen Xuan cupped his hands, "I also talked with Junior Brother Shi for a long time outside."
"Oh, it looks like you already know, but I still want to make you happy." Ji Ziang stroked his beard, shook his head with a smile, raised his hand and held a jade slip in front of him, "Speaking of which, you are really a sect. The great hero of the ancients, this time I visited the ancient relics, it can be said to be a great harvest. The list that has been collected is here, you can come and have a look."
"Uncle Sect Master, disciple..." Wen Xuan's palms sweated a bit again when he spoke of the pass, "There is only one thing this disciple asks for."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but let out a wry smile, secretly thinking that he was really outrageous, even a few decades old can still be so nervous because of this little battle.
In addition to being nervous, it is actually more joyful. For some reason, Wenxuan actually believed very much that what he needed must be within the harvest of this trip. Maybe it's because that's what Simple told him. Because he has seen Jian Jian's ability to deduce heaven's secrets, and he also knows that Jian Yi is not someone who can talk nonsense about this kind of thing.
Therefore, Wenxuan at the moment is full of hope. His eyes were bright, and his hands trembled slightly with excitement. In this mood, he knelt down to the ground and said with a very sincere attitude, "I beg the head master to give me a copy of the exercises that I can practice."
As soon as these words came out, the hand of the head Ji Ziang holding the jade slip froze.
After a long while, Ji Ziang showed a subtle look, "Aren't you satisfied with the exercises you are practicing now?"
Wen Xuan suddenly raised his head, his expression stunned.
"I asked you if you wanted to practice that exercise, and you agreed."
Listening to Ji Ziang's words, Wen Xuan's heart gradually sank, and the joy in his heart gradually turned into something cold.
He reluctantly kept his tone, "The disciple is very grateful for the help of the head master at that time, but if it is possible, the disciple still hopes..."
"I know what you're thinking." Ji Ziang sighed helplessly, "Yeah, if there is a better one, who would want to use the flawed one? But you have to know that even the flawed one was scrapped in the first place. I have a lot of mental strength, and it is not easy to find. As for the better... How can it be so easy?"
Wen Xuan understood what he meant, and his head was humming as if he had been hit with a mallet.
"Didn't you find it this time?" He was still struggling.
With a click, the jade slip was thrown to the ground by Ji Ziang and slid in front of Wen Xuan.
"All the gains this time are here, you can see for yourself."
Wenxuan picked up the jade slips, really dived into his mind, and read them one by one with great detail and seriousness. The head said that this time it was a great harvest, and the content on the jade slip was indeed worthy of his description. There are numerous exercises in various realms, but they only account for a small part of all the gains. There are more powerful spells and mysterious magical powers, each of which has the power to control a life-and-death battle.
For a sect, this is simply a pile of treasures. It is conceivable that in the next period of time, the strength of the disciples of Shuiyunzong will increase by more than one level.
However... no.
What Wenxuan needed most was the cultivation technique that the Root of Extreme Water could practise. No matter how many times he looked carefully, he really couldn't find it.
"I said that when I find something, I will let you pick it first." Ji Ziang said, "Now this promise is still valid. As long as there is something on it, you can pick it at will, and after you pick it up, put the rest away. Go to Wanfa Pavilion and exchange it for other disciples. But if there is nothing on it, there is really no way."
Wenxuan put down the jade slip, raised his head, and asked in a daze, "Is it really all on this?"
Ji Ziang slapped his palm heavily on the armrest by his side, already a little angry, "What do you mean?"
Without waiting for Wenxuan's response, he stood up and pointed out, "Now these things are stored in the warehouse behind Wanfa Pavilion. If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself to see if there is anything missing."
Wenxuan nodded and actually walked out.
"Nephew Wen," the head's voice came from behind, "if you have seen it, you still don't believe it, and you are worried that someone will hide it, I can promise you that from now on, as long as you find anyone in the sect When you are cultivating the exercises you need now, come and tell me, I promise to help you take the exercises and expel that person from the sect directly!"
At this point, he thought that he would definitely be able to regain Wenxuan's trust.
But Wenxuan seems to be in a daze now, and he still walks out.
"Nephew Wen!" Ji Ziang finally shouted, "Think about it, is it necessary for the sect to do such a thing!"
Of course, there is no need for the sect at all. There are a lot of things written on the jade slip that are more valuable than the Root of Extreme Water. Since Ji Ziang used all those for Wenxuan to choose, there is no reason to hide a copy of the exercises that can be used by the Root of Extreme Water.
Intellectually, Wenxuan knew this very well. Emotionally, he is also unwilling to doubt the sect.
However, he still didn't want to believe that the hopeful euphoria before were just a pipe dream.
So he still flew to the warehouse and checked everything there. Then he wandered around in the sect, trying to find something.
He didn't know what he wanted to find out. Zongmen deceived his evidence? If he really found this kind of thing, maybe he would imitate Qi Jibai, leave a similar sentence and break out. But in the bottom of his heart, he didn't want this to happen.
In the end, he really didn't find anything.
Wen Xuan returned to Daiyun Peak in a daze, and returned to his cave, but felt that the cave was extremely stuffy, so he ran to the nearby forest and sat for a long time, guarding an old tree root.
After an unknown time, the sun had already set in the west, and he still hadn't recovered.
Until a cheerful figure rushed over, "Senior brother!"
Wen Xuan turned his head and saw that it was simple.
That's right, Qi Jibai has seen the head of the sect before, and it seems that the matter of being included in the inner sect with a simple exception has already happened. Wen Xuan wanted to appear happier, but Yi Jian could see his low mood.
"What's wrong?" Easy asked.
Wen Xuan shook his head and briefly explained the matter.
Jian Yi opened his mouth a little, but didn't know what to say. For a moment, he was happy, happy that the fox's tail was finally exposed, and happy Wenxuan finally began to doubt. But seeing Wen Xuan's appearance like this, this kind of joy could not enter his heart.
"Junior Brother Jian." Wen Xuan finally smiled, "Actually, you made a mistake."
Simple and Zongmen, there is always one wrong. If the sect is wrong, it is that the sect deliberately deceived him, and if it is simple and wrong, it is just insufficient strength and cannot deduce the correct secret.
As long as you believe that it is a simple mistake, although you still can't get rid of the sadness of losing hope, you don't have to doubt anyone anymore.
Wen Xuan thought so, trying to free himself from the torture of those who doubted and believed.
Yi Jian took his hand, "Senior brother, no. I can guarantee that I am absolutely not wrong."
Wen Xuan looked at Jian Jian in amazement.
"But it doesn't matter, Senior Brother." Jian Yi smiled again, "There is not only one chance to get the exercises."
Wen Xuan didn't know how he should react at this time, only moved his lips.
But just before he uttered the first word, a powerful air force suddenly enveloped the entire Daiyun Peak.
Wen Xuan suddenly stood up. This kind of qi machine used to be so familiar, and now even if he hadn't seen it for twenty years, he couldn't admit his mistake.
Chu Lian is back.
Chu Lian actually came back!
Wenxuan just felt unbelievable, and there was no joy in finally meeting the master who had been away for a long time. And that powerful qi stopped for a while on the top of the mountain, and went straight to Wenxuan.
Wen Xuan's expression changed, and he quickly stopped in front of Jian Yi.
Chu Lian is happy and quiet, and it is the most difficult to see anyone approaching Daiyun Peak.
Just a moment later, the only real Nascent Soul in the Shuiyun Sect finally appeared in front of the two of them. He didn't take a look at Yi Jian, and his eyes were fixed on Wen Xuan. Even though he is hundreds of years old, his appearance is still very young and handsome. Thin lips and narrow eyes, eyebrows slanted into the temples.
And the first sentence he said with a frown was, "Are you condensed?"
… Yes, Chu Lian has not returned for 20 years. The last time we met, Wen Xuan was just a foundation-building agent.
Wen Xuan never thought of it, Chu Lian walked in front of him in two steps, grabbed his wrist, and the second sentence full of anger was, "Who allowed you to condense Yuan?"
