"Master, what on earth happened between you and Qing'er? Why did she disappear again after you took her away last time? And after you returned to the sect, you kept triggering heavenly tribulations? Qing'er is your disciple! What on earth did you do to her?"

At this moment, Si Ying's spiritual sense swept across the calamity clouds above his head, as well as the thunder that was ready to strike behind the thick clouds, and he finally couldn't help but question out loud.

Xie Huazhang is the only one who has cultivated the Way of Ruthlessness to the highest level.

He is also the being closest to the Way of Heaven.

In this situation, the Heavenly Dao would intend to bring down heavenly calamity on him again and again, unless he did something that went against the Ruthless Dao!

Although Si Ying didn't say it explicitly, she already had a guess in her heart, and her pretty face suddenly showed a hint of anger.

"Junior sister, haven't you always wanted the position of the headmaster?"

However, Xie Huazhang did not answer her question, but suddenly said this.

"What do you mean?" Si Ying frowned.

"Today, I will pass the position of the head sect master to you." Xie Huazhang said, grabbing a token from the void. It was the handprint of the head sect master, symbolizing the identity of the head sect master.

He threw the token directly to Si Ying.

Si Ying was stunned and subconsciously raised his hand to catch it.

"Master Brother, what are you going to do?" she couldn't help but ask.

"Retreat."

As Xie Huazhang said this, he raised his sleeve and waved it. Si Ying's figure suddenly flashed and he was already outside the hall!

"From now on, Ziling Peak will be the main peak of the sect. Junior sister, Liuyun Dao Sect is entrusted to you. From now on, no one is allowed to come and disturb me."

After saying that, the entire summit of Lingjue Peak was isolated by one restriction after another.

It doesn't look like he is in seclusion, but rather like he wants to seal himself!

Si Ying didn't have time to think clearly, and hurriedly retreated from the top of the mountain and flew into the air. He watched this place completely closed, and the natural disaster in the sky also dissipated.

The doubts in her heart could never be dispelled.

Senior brother, did he really not do anything wrong to Xue Qingyi?

At this time, Xie Huazhang was no longer in the main hall of Lingjue Peak.

He entered the place where he usually meditated and soon sat cross-legged in meditation.

However, Si Ying's puzzled questioning kept echoing in his ears.

What on earth had been done to her?

The lingering memories of those five days will never go away from my mind.

Xie Huazhang couldn't help but ask himself again and again what he really wanted.

After a long time, he suddenly touched his forehead with his fingertips, and a drop of strange and bright red blood was drawn out.

At this moment, Xie Huazhang's eyes suddenly turned as dark as ink, as if he was possessed by a demon.

…

…

In the blink of an eye, another half a year has passed.

Su Chi Xin finally broke through the middle stage of foundation building!

During this period, she tried to use the Chaos Cauldron to refine high-quality recovery pills several times, but unfortunately each attempt ended in failure.

Moreover, this Chaos Cauldron is not like an ordinary alchemy furnace. If it cannot produce top-grade pills, mid-grade ones are fine. It can only produce top-grade pills. If it fails to produce pills, the pills will be wasted. This makes Su Chi feel sorry for those spiritual herbs and materials. He dared not try them easily and had to be patient and continue to practice.

As long as you cultivate to the Golden Core Stage, you will be able to refine a top-grade recovery pill.

Xue Qingyi was naturally happy to see this happen.

Over the past six months, with her dedicated practice, she has mastered several martial arts techniques to the extreme that her body can now endure.

Now she only needs to wait another one or two years for Su Chi Xin to successfully form the elixir and refine the top-grade recovery elixir. Then, she can repair her spiritual roots and then, based on the shattered elixir, directly try to condense the Nascent Soul.

Occasionally, when she looked inward at her dantian with her spiritual consciousness, when she saw those strands of pure spiritual power, the days and nights she spent with Xie Huazhang in the far west would flash through her mind.

Who can believe it?

She, a waste with damaged spiritual roots in the eyes of others, slept with her master who was always regarded as a god-like existence by everyone.

Thank you Huazhang, thank you Huazhang.

Is your faith in the Tao still stable?

Half a year is enough time for a lot to happen.

Xie Huazhang went into seclusion and passed the position of the head of Liuyun Taoist Sect to the second elder Si Ying.

The whereabouts of the fifth elder Shangluo is still unknown.

The situations of the several disciples under Xie Huazhang were also different.

Ji Jian finally cultivated from the middle stage of Golden Core to the late stage of Golden Core and reached the realm of False Infant.

Lu Zhanxing didn't know why his cultivation progress was stagnant.

Wei Daofeng left after Su Youyao escaped from the sect, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

Xue Qingyi has been missing for a long time.

The lineage of the former leader seems to be in decline.

"I will definitely find Second Senior Sister." On this day, Ji Jian said goodbye to Lu Zhanxing and planned to leave the sect.

“If you can really find her, please apologize to her on my behalf first.” Lu Zhanxing said.

"If you want to apologize, you should tell her yourself!"

Ji Jian said this and flew away decisively.

Lu Zhanxing looked at his departing figure with a unhappy expression.

Ever since he parted with his senior sister last time and learned the truth of everything, he has developed a demon in his heart.

If he didn't meet Xue Qingyi and apologize to her in person, he was afraid that his inner demons would never be eliminated and it would be difficult for him to make further progress in his cultivation in the future.

After Ji Jian left the sect, he did not search aimlessly.

In fact, he had a guess in his mind about where Xue Qingyi was now.

Therefore, he flew towards the northeast all the way.

More than half a month later, Ji Jian stopped at the entrance of a somewhat dilapidated sect.

Ningshuang Sword Sect.

Xue Qingyi once stayed here for a period of time.

Ji Jian thought he understood Xue Qingyi. Apart from practicing in the sect and interacting with a few people from the same sect, she had no other friends since she was a child.

Until about two years ago, Xue Qingyi was stabbed by the emotionally out-of-control Lu Zhanxing in the Demon Abyss and fell into a coma. She was rescued by Chen Xuechen and Yun Fengwan who happened to go to the Demon Abyss for training.

Afterwards, she was taken to the Ningshuang Sword Sect.

Senior brother and sister Chen Xuechen had hoped very much that she could stay.

And she treated these two siblings even more intimately than she treated herself!

This once made Ji Jian extremely jealous.

Therefore, he suspected that during the time when Xue Qingyi was away, she was most likely hiding in the Ningshuang Sword Sect!

At this moment, as soon as he landed at the gate of the sect, he looked at the dilapidated mountain gate and threw the fireball in his hand out.

Suddenly, the mountain gate’s defensive formation shattered.

The next moment, several sword cultivators appeared at the mountain gate, all of whom were at the foundation-building stage.

"Who destroyed my mountain protection formation?"

An angry voice came.

When Ji Jian saw that the leader was unfamiliar and not Chen Xuechen and his sister, he said arrogantly, "I am Ji Jian from Liuyun Dao Sect. Call Chen Xuechen out. I have something to ask him!"

"Big Brother?" The leading swordsman frowned upon hearing this.

The arrogant young man in front of them had a cultivation level similar to that of their leader, both were at the False Infant stage.

This is not something that a few of them, the foundation-building monks, can handle.

What's more, the other party is a disciple of the number one immortal sect, Liuyun Taoist Sect.

So they had no choice but to pass on the message.

Not long after, Chen Xuechen and Yun Fengwan appeared together.

"Where is my second senior sister? But you hid her here?" When Ji Jian saw these two people, he remembered how gentle and kind Xue Qingyi treated them in the past, and suddenly a kind of anger burned like fire.
