92, go back
It was almost dusk when someone sat on a hillside watching the sky.
Qin Hui leaned against the door of a dilapidated house, gazing at the person looking up at the sky.
Today the weather is very good, the sky is clear and blue, with a few wispy clouds, and a gentle breeze. If this were the mundane world, it would be a day for those refined scholars and elegant guests to go on an outing and enjoy the spring scenery. But for cultivators, such inclinations are rare; whether it's sunny or stormy with thunder and lightning, all is the same in their eyes.
So he knew this person's attention was definitely not on the scenery.
After watching for a long time, he himself sighed, because he felt that he might have taken on another **headache**.
A monk with too rich emotions... He doesn't think there will be any future for him, but since he has already promised, he cannot go back on his word.
Actually, Ye Jiang was right. He originally thought highly of this child and felt that although her innate talent was not good, she had the potential to become a high-ranking cultivator. For example, she could endure loneliness, wasn't afraid of bitter cultivation; didn't have greedy desires, but had ambition; was clever and resourceful, able to use her wits; and when necessary, wouldn't hesitate or drag things out, could make swift decisions.
A monk with these qualities lacks only the opportunity.
But unexpectedly, he found out that she was indulging in emotions!
Cultivating immortality is not just about advancing in rank, but also requires a strong enough heart to grasp power. A cultivator indulging in emotions will find it difficult to achieve great accomplishments.
So he's a bit worried now. How should he deal with this person? Indulging him feels like a waste, teaching him but not having the mood for it.
"Leaf Junior Brother."
A voice came from beside her ear, and Mo Tian Ge tilted his head slightly, seeing Qin Xi walking over.
"Qin Shixiong, is there something?" Her voice was very calm, so calm that it surprised Qin Xiu.
He looked at her carefully and saw nothing unusual about her, then said: "We should get going."
Mo Tian Ge nodded, stood up, and brushed off his sleeves.
Qin Xi didn't move, but instead asked another question: "Are you really okay?"
Mo Tian Ge turned his head to look at the sunset, slightly raising the corners of his mouth: "Nothing."
She looks like this, and it doesn't seem like she's still heartbroken. Qin Xi thought about it, except for that day. She really hasn't cried again, so she shouldn't be forcing herself.
"He then said: 'Is there anything else you need to prepare?'"
Mo Tian Ge fell silent for a moment, seemingly thinking of many things, but in the end only let out a soft sigh: "Nothing, it's not needed, just leave everything behind."
This sentence seems to have some implication. Qin Xi suddenly felt that his earlier caution was a bit superfluous, this woman was more rational than he had imagined.
He couldn't help but ask another question: "Are you sure you can let go of everything?"
The sky is smiling, this time the smile is not forced at all. After laughing, she said softly: "Second uncle said that losing is for growing up. Similarly, I think that experiencing is to make oneself stronger."
Experience is for becoming stronger... Qin Xi muttered this sentence in his heart and felt that he didn't need to say anything else.
The song of the wild sky is indeed very peaceful.
Thirteen years ago, she was still a child. She could walk out of the sorrow of losing her mother and would not be knocked down now.
Second Uncle always told her that she must have a strong heart in order to achieve great goals, now that Second Uncle is gone, how can she let him down?
She calmly told herself to live a good life and cultivate well, not for her uncle, but for herself.
Although she didn't originally intend to embark on the path of cultivation, cultivating immortality still brought her joy. Learning a new spell, advancing in rank, growing stronger, and defeating enemies all made her happy.
Then just keep going like this. Do what you like and go on resolutely.
Following Qin Xi onto the flying sword, the two of them rode the sword and wind, setting foot on their journey.
This flying sword is another treasure, and Mo Tian Ge no longer feels jealous or envious. Since this Qin brother has a big background, it's normal for him to have many precious objects.
However, after flying for a while, Mo Tian Ge felt something was off: "Qin Shixiong, why are we heading east?" Heading east would be the way back to Yunwu Mountain.
Qin Xi glanced at her and continued to wield his sword swiftly, replying, "Some things need to be taken care of."
"Hmm..." Perhaps he still had some unfinished business. Mo Tian Ge thought to herself, but she couldn't help feeling a bit worried. That day, more than ten Foundation Building cultivators retreated, and Qin Xi's words were ambiguous, so she didn't know the inside story. But even if he could make over ten Foundation Building cultivators retreat, would he be able to deal with the Nascent Soul cultivators of Yunwu Mountain in the same way?
She clearly knew that she had offended Jiang Mian's main line of descent, and Jiang Chengxian was not only his direct descendant but also the only bloodline, which meant that she had cut off her incense. Moreover, Yunwu Sect now belonged to Zixia Sect, and Zixia Sect still had a Yuan Ying cultivator! Even if this Qin Shixiong had an elder as his backing, it was too far-fetched.
Right in the midst of his heavy thoughts, he suddenly heard Qin Xi speak up: "Ye Shidi, what's on your mind?"
Moy Tian Ge replied honestly, "I'm worried that I'll be intercepted on my way back." Even though he had already established his foundation, when facing a Jindan cultivator, he was still like an ant, and he had to consider the seniors behind him. As long as they could capture him... She still felt that her life was not guaranteed.
Qin Xi just smiled slightly: "Don't worry, you can rest assured."
Moy Tian Ge responded softly, then remembered something: "Qin Shixiong, now that you've established your foundation, it seems I shouldn't be addressing you like this anymore." Following the usual practice, since he had advanced in rank, she should be calling him Shishu.
Qin Xi shook his head and said: "I just closed the door a step earlier than you, now that everything is ready for you, building the foundation is only a matter of time, no need to bother so much."
Mo Tian Ge didn't have the same confidence, and said with a sigh: "My second uncle was able to build his foundation because my father used dan yao to pile it up for him. My second uncle said that he used five whole foundation-building pills just to build his foundation, and I'm not even as talented as my second uncle... building my foundation... probably won't happen in the next year or two."
In fact, for more than twenty years, if the foundation is not established, continue to strive for the foundation Dan until the foundation is established.
"You can rest assured, when you arrive at the Xuan Qing Gate, there will naturally be seniors from the sect to guide you. Building a foundation is not that difficult. Besides, we've been fellow disciples for three years and have already gotten used to it, why change now?"
He said that, Mo Tian Ge also didn't want to make excuses anymore, so he didn't say anything else. Only...
She hesitated and said: "Qin Shixiong, actually... Ye Xiaotian is not my real name."
Qin Xi smiled and said, "I know that you followed your mother's surname Mo and were named Tian Ge. Now you don't have to hide your name anymore, when you go to Xuan Qing Men, just use your original name. However, I've gotten used to it and don't want to change it."
Qin Xi always kept a distance from others, rarely showing such a carefree and easy-going side. Mo Tian Ge couldn't help but laugh: "Then let's follow Qin Shixiong."
At this time, the master of Yunwu Mountain Range that Mo Tian Ge was worried about was not in Yunwu Mountain.
The stone gate of the Dongfu opened, and a young girl with a refined foundation came out from inside. She bowed to Jiang Miao, who was waiting by the side, and said: "Master has invited Master Jiang."
Jiang Mian's master, who had been waiting impatiently, was overjoyed when he heard the words and politely returned a courtesy to the girl before following her into the Dongfu.
On the couch in the center of the hall, a thin Taoist priest was sitting. As soon as Jiang Mo saw this person, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Greetings to the Supreme Elder."
After a long time, the Taoist finally murmured and opened his eyes: "Sit down."
Jiang Mou still bowed respectfully and sat down.
"What's up? Anything going on?"
This Taoist's attitude was somewhat dismissive, but Jiang Miao didn't dare show the slightest disrespect, because this unassuming Taoist was a Yuan Ying cultivator!
"Great Elder Above, it's about that matter from before, I was thinking of asking you to take charge."
Jiang Miao finished speaking, gazing eagerly at the Taoist in front of him, but the Taoist didn't even glance at him. After accepting the spiritual tea presented by Shi Feng's disciple, the Taoist slowly savored it for a moment before saying: "Take charge? How do you want me to take charge? Avenge your useless great-grandson? You might as well be reborn yourself!"
This man looks gentle, but his words are harsh. Jiang Mian's face turned red as he listened. He naturally knew that his great-grandson was not capable, but even if he wasn't capable, he was still his own flesh and blood!
"Great Elder," Jiang Miao said in a low and humble tone, "I don't ask you to take action, I only ask for your consent to let me avenge. My disciple has only this one great-grandson, no matter how many faults he may have, it's still a family matter, how can we let an outsider kill him?!"
Unfortunately, these words did not move the Taoist priest. The elder simply hummed softly: "It seems you are still not awake. For us cultivators, what does it matter if a junior dies? A junior who can only cause trouble and has no skills is better off dead! You may leave, and this matter will not be mentioned again."
"Great Elder!"
Seeing him disobedient, the Taoist's eyes turned stern: "How dare you, are you resentful that I didn't help you?"
Jiang Mou hurriedly lowered his head, but didn't refute it.
The Taoist hummed and said, "Alright, I'll make it clear to you. The Qin Shoujing you mentioned is not an ordinary cultivator who has formed the Golden Elixir. He has a Yuan Ying elder backing him."
Hearing this, Jiang Miao was shocked: "Taishang Laozu, this person actually has such a background?"
The Taoist snorted in his nose: "Otherwise, do you think he dares to be arrogant in the distant East Kunwu? Let me tell you, behind Qin Shoujing is Qin Jing and that old guy. This Qin Jing, you don't understand, but I know, this person is extremely protective of his own and also has a strong desire to kill. Usually it's fine, but because of the rules of the Xuanqing Gate, he won't take action casually. But if you hurt his people, it's not impossible for him to come from afar and start a big massacre! I'm just in the initial stage of Yuanying, so I can't fight against him, so you'd better be careful."
"Isn't the Great Elder and the Primordial Infant Master supposed to be unable to kill indiscriminately?"
"That's your lack of knowledge." The Taoist closed his eyes and said slowly, "A Yuan Ying cultivator doesn't kill indiscriminately, it's to avoid the emergence of heart demons, stagnating their cultivation. But if there's a reason, they will certainly take action."
Jiang Miao lowered his head and remained silent, so it seemed that the young Qi-refining disciple was untouchable!
The Taoist continued, "Also, you'd better go back and investigate what Qin Shoujing did during his stay at your Yunwu Mountain. The Xuqing Gate is one of the top two or three major sects in Tianji, they have everything they need, yet he joined a small sect like yours and stayed for three years, I'm afraid he's not after something insignificant..."
