late at night.

In the Yuqing Hall, the leaders of each lineage left one after another, leaving only Daoxuan, Xiao Yicai, and Zhang Ruofeng.

Looking at the two most outstanding disciples under his sect, Master Daoxuan had a complex expression. Then he looked at the seven-star sword in Xiao Yicai's hand that symbolized Master Qingyun. There seemed to be some entanglement and struggle in his eyes.

This sword had been passed on to Xiao Yicai after Xiao Yicai won the championship in the last Seven Meridians Competition. The purpose was self-evident, which was to train Xiao Yicai as the next leader.

But after so many years, Xiao Yicai's performance did disappoint him.

In terms of his conduct as a person, he is quite satisfactory, with no bright spots to speak of. He is even inferior to Junior Brother Cangsong and his eldest disciple, Qi Hao.

In terms of cultivation, Xiao Yicai was at the eighth level of Yuqing as early as sixty years ago during the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition.

Now more than sixty years have passed, and he has only taken one step to break through to the ninth level of Jade Purity. He has not broken through to the upper realm for a long time.

Instead, it was this young apprentice who had only been in the industry for six years.

Not only is he talented and extraordinary, he has completed a path that many disciples cannot complete in a lifetime in just a few years. He is the first among his disciples to break through to the higher level.

Moreover, this time he went down the mountain, united his fellow sects, and brought back the first volume of the Heavenly Book, which made an unparalleled contribution to the development of Qingyun Sect.

When fighting against the Demon Cult, he also showed courage and strategy, resisting many masters of the Demon Cult, which made Qingyun Sect famous in the world of cultivation in Middle-earth.

Comparing the two, which one is stronger and which one is weaker can be known at a glance.

Therefore, Master Daoxuan couldn't help but wonder at this moment whether he had chosen the successor as the head of the family too early?

But if he takes back the Seven Star Sword at this moment, Yi Cai will inevitably think too much, and may even turn his two most outstanding disciples against each other.

This result was not what Master Daoxuan wanted.

Therefore, he is now extremely confused, wondering whether he should take back the Seven Star Sword and train Zhang Ruofeng as the heir to the head of the family again.

There was silence in the hall.

Master Daoxuan was silent for a long time, and the atmosphere was slightly tense.

Xiao Yicai and Zhang Ruofeng lowered their heads, glanced at each other, a little confused, and then looked up cautiously.

When they saw Master Daoxuan's tangled expression and his eyes focused on the Seven Star Sword in Xiao Yicai's hand, both of them were slightly startled.

Immediately, Xiao Yicai's heart suddenly sank.

He can be designated as the heir to the head, regardless of how high his character and qualifications are, but at least he is not mediocre. How can he not understand what Master Daoxuan is thinking at this moment?

Zhang Ruofeng also vaguely understood what Master Daoxuan meant, and subconsciously looked at Xiao Yicai, only to find that Xiao Yicai also turned to look at him.

The two looked at each other again, their expressions a little complicated.

Immediately, Xiao Yicai took a step forward, raised the Seven-Star Sword in his hands, and saluted: "Master, I have betrayed the trust of the Master and am unable to take on the important task. Please take the Seven-Star Sword back and choose a new master."

Master Daoxuan suddenly woke up, frowned slightly when he saw this, and stared at Xiao Yicai closely, but he saw that Xiao Yicai's face was respectful and there was no abnormality in his expression. He seemed to be willing to hand over the Seven Star Sword.

Master Daoxuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Have you thought clearly?"

Xiao Yicai's body was shaken. After all, he could not be as calm as he appeared. There was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "Disciple can understand that the future of Qingyun Sect must be entrusted to someone who can take on major responsibilities, has extraordinary qualifications, and cultivates As a person who can support Qingyun's foundation, compared to my disciples, my junior brother is indeed more qualified to wear the Seven-Star Sword than me. I am willing to hand over the Seven-Star Sword and assist my junior brother in inheriting my Qingyun legacy in the future."

Master Daoxuan had no expression on his face and looked at him quietly without saying a word.

Zhang Ruofeng frowned, looked at Xiao Yicai, then looked at Master Daoxuan, stepped forward and saluted: "Master, I don't dare to discuss the matter of Qingyun's successor, but if Master really wants to choose between me and the second senior brother As for the successor, I believe that the second senior brother is more suitable than me."

Xiao Yicai suddenly turned around and looked at Zhang Ruofeng, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Master Daoxuan's eyes were also moved, and he turned to look at his young disciple, as if he wanted to see whether what he said was true or false.

Zhang Ruofeng's expression remained unchanged as he continued: "Second Senior Brother is an upright man with unparalleled loyalty. In order to eradicate the Demon Cult, he even risked his own life and personally infiltrated into the Demon Cult to find out information. He has made great contributions to our defeat of the Demon Cult's conspiracy this time. There are many disciples who respect me. If the second senior brother succeeds me as the leader in the future, he will definitely be able to unite my Qingyun disciples and jointly revitalize our Qingyun foundation. If the second senior brother succeeds me as the leader, I will definitely do my best to help the second brother. Senior brother, revitalize my great cause!"

Having said this, Zhang Ruofeng paused and then said: "In addition, compared to being the leader, the disciple actually values ​​​​cultivation and enlightenment more. The disciple once vowed in his heart that he must climb the peak in this life and go to the realm above the immortal to see something. Look, I may be able to travel around the world in the future, and I don’t want to be tied to one place my whole life.”

After saying that, Zhang Ruofeng bowed solemnly to Master Daoxuan and Xiao Yicai: "This is my disciple's ambition in this life, and I ask Master and Second Senior Brother to fulfill it!"

After he finished speaking, there was silence in the hall.

Xiao Yicai looked moved, with a flash of warmth in his eyes, and looked at Zhang Ruofeng blankly: "Junior brother..."

He was not a fool, so he naturally knew what Zhang Ruofeng meant by these words.

Regardless of whether Zhang Ruofeng's ambition to become an immortal was true or false, he could tell that Zhang Ruofeng did not want to compete with him for the position of head, and it was definitely from the bottom of his heart and sincere.

After all, Qingyun Sect is also one of the seven great sects of the Righteous Path of Middle-earth today. Now that it has the first volume of the Heavenly Book, it may become the leader of the Righteous Path of Middle-earth in the future.

At that time, the rights and honors that one can enjoy as the headmaster of Qingyun Sect are beyond the imagination of anyone.

But he didn't expect that in the face of such temptation, Zhang Ruofeng could decisively refuse, which really moved him.

Even Master Daoxuan seemed to have gotten to know his little apprentice again at this moment. He looked at him deeply and said, "Have you thought about it clearly? You really don't want to succeed to the position of master. In this life, you only want to become an immortal." For ambition?"

Zhang Ruofeng said solemnly: "This is my greatest ambition in this life, and I will never regret it!"

"good!"

Master Daoxuan finally showed a smile, with a look of approval in his eyes, and nodded: "Since you have this ambition, I will not stop you as a teacher, but you must remember that my greatest hope is to see Qingyun prosper, and all the branches of the world prosper. Disciples unite and help each other, I don’t want to see the day when you will meet at war.”

Zhang Ruofeng said in a deep voice: "Master, please rest assured, my second senior brother and I will never see this day!"

Xiao Yicai also clasped his hands solemnly: "Disciples must take the master's hope as their ambition, unite with fellow disciples, jointly revitalize our Qingyun foundation, and never fall into my Qingyun name!"

Master Daoxuan nodded, looked at Xiao Yicai again, and said: "I hope you will remember what you said today, why I asked you to go down the mountain for training five years ago. You know very well that for a teacher, being the head of my Qingyun, Cultivation strength is far from the most important thing, but to remember what should be done and what should not be done, and the overall situation should be the most important thing in everything."

"When you come down the mountain this time, I thought you would change, but you have disappointed me. I hope you will remember what I said today and keep your heart."

"Now that you have all grown up, when you are able to do what my teacher said, I will pass on the position of leader to you."

Xiao Yicai said solemnly: "Yes, this disciple will never let Master down!"

Master Daoxuan nodded slightly, waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go ahead. In the next few days, your masters and uncles from all walks of life will come to Tongtian Peak to study this heavenly book with me, the size of the door. I’ll leave the affairs to you.”

"Yes, disciple, resign."

The two of them bowed respectfully, then turned and left.

Master Daoxuan looked at the two figures and seemed to have thought of something, with a look of nostalgia on his face.

Then, he shook his head, smiled happily, turned around and walked out from the back of the hall, heading towards the back mountain.

"Second senior brother!"

"Little junior brother!"

"You guys are out?"

"Tell us, what fun things did you encounter when you went down the mountain this time?"

Outside the Yuqing Hall, as soon as Xiao Yicai and Zhang Ruofeng went out, a group of disciples from Tongtian Peak surrounded them and started asking questions.

They all knew that a lot of things happened when Zhang Ruofeng and others went down the mountain this time, and it was said that they even fought against people from the Demon Sect.

But the specific details are unknown. In addition, everyone was called to the Yuqing Palace as soon as they came back. They did not dare to go in and could only wait here.

There is also Xiao Yicai, who has a very good relationship with his disciples in the sect. He has been down the mountain for five years, and everyone is very curious about what he has experienced in the five years since he has been down the mountain.

At this time, senior brother Chang Jian came over and scolded softly: "Okay, the second junior brother and the younger junior brother have just come back. They are tired from the boat and the carriage. Let them have a good rest first. What are you doing around here?"

Although Chang Jian has ordinary qualifications, he has been a disciple for many years and has always been trusted by Master Daoxuan. Many matters in the sect, big and small, are entrusted to him. The disciples also respect him very much. After hearing this, they immediately restrained themselves a lot and stepped aside one after another, saying respectfully. Said: "Yes, senior brother."

"Elder brother!" Xiao Yicai and Zhang Ruofeng saluted quickly.

They also respect Chang Jian very much.

Chang Jian smiled and said: "Second Junior Brother, Junior Brother, you go and rest first. We will talk about other things tomorrow."

Xiao Yicai smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I have been down the mountain for five years, and I miss my senior brother and all the junior brothers and sisters very much. Let's have a long talk tonight!"

"This..." Chang Jian hesitated.

Zhang Ruofeng also smiled and said: "Senior Brother, we haven't seen each other for such a long time, please let everyone be as they please. Anyway, there is nothing going on these days."

Hearing this, Chang Jian glanced at the waiting crowd and nodded, "Okay."

"yeah!"

"Big brother is the best!"

All the disciples were immediately overjoyed and gathered around him one after another.

At this time, the moon was high in the sky, but the Tongtian Peak was still very lively.

Zhang Ruofeng stood in the crowd, looking at the enthusiastic brothers and sisters around him, and couldn't help but smile brightly.

He likes this kind of cultivation environment.

at the same time.

In the distance at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, two beautiful figures stand side by side, looking at the top of the mountain that goes straight into the sky.

It was Baguio and the Suzaku Holy Envoy of the Ghost King Sect, Youji.

Baguio looked a little worried at this moment and whispered: "We will attack Qingyun Gate soon. I wonder how he is doing now?"

The veil on Youji's face moved slightly, and she turned to look at the girl who was trapped in love. She couldn't help but sigh and said: "Baguio, there is no way that you and him will end up, and it is impossible for him to leave Qingyun Sect for you. With his cultivation qualifications, it is impossible for the Qingyun Sect to release him, and even if he is killed, he will not be allowed to join our Holy Religion."

Baguio gritted his teeth and said: "I don't care, no matter what method I use, I will let him leave Qingyun Sect. At worst, I will leave with him. By then I will no longer be a member of the Holy Religion, and he will no longer be a member of the righteous path. , I don’t believe him…”

"Baguio!"

You Ji gave a soft drink, stared at Baguio, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know how much your father has done for you? Since your mother's death, he has followed you in everything, but you have always been there because of your mother's affairs. Rejecting him, now that you have finally resolved your knot and got back together, are you going to leave him again? Is this worthy of your father?!"

Baguio was startled for a moment, lowered his head and said nothing more, but the trace of sadness in his eyes was clearly seen by Youji.

You Ji sighed in a low voice, looking at this poor girl who couldn't love, she seemed to think of herself in the past, remembering the proud figure dressed in white a hundred years ago, her mood also dropped, and she sighed: "He just saved your life. Is it worth it for you to treat him like this?"

Baguio shook his head in confusion: "I don't know, I just feel like he knew me from the beginning. Under that bloody hole, he knew my identity, but he didn't reveal me. Instead, he protected me and protected me. .”

"I was just a little curious about him at first. I just wanted to know why he did this to me, but for some reason, after I went back, his shadow would occasionally appear in my mind."

"After I came back from Liubo Mountain this time, he appeared in my mind more often. I really don't know why this is happening. In short, I... I just don't want anything to happen to him..."

Youji sighed again.

I don’t know where the love started, but it goes deeper and deeper.

When a woman falls in love with a man, she often starts out of curiosity.

What's more, they had experienced life and death together. The boy from Qingyun Sect was such an outstanding person, and he defended her in front of his fellow sect members, so he naturally left a shadow in her heart.

However, the two sides have different sects, and good and evil are in opposition. If the boy from the Qingyun Sect does not have her in his heart, this relationship is destined to be fruitless...

Touching Baguio's head with some distress, You Ji whispered: "When the war comes, you go find him and see if he is willing to leave with you. If he is willing, you should leave Qingyun Mountain first. If If he doesn't want to, it proves that he doesn't have you in his heart, and you can give up."

"This time your father has summoned the other three major factions of the Holy Cult to jointly besiege Qingyun Sect. Qingyun Sect will undoubtedly be destroyed. If he chooses to coexist and die with Qingyun Sect, even if your father wants to save him, he will not be able to."

"Baguio, you have to understand your father. He is not only your father, but also the leader of the Ghost King Sect. He is the one who initiated this attack on the Qingyun Sect. If you still insist on going against him for someone from the Qingyun Sect. , what would people from the other three sects think of your father?"

"At that time, not only will he die, but your father will also be squeezed by the crowds from the other three sects, and your father's years of hard work will be in vain. I hope you understand this."

Baguio fell silent.

Then, she nodded and said, "I understand, Aunt You, I won't make things difficult for you."

After saying that, she raised her head and looked in the direction of Qingyun Mountain, a look of determination flashed in her eyes.
