The Taichu Sect has been peaceful recently, and Wuya Peak is also quiet and peaceful. If there is any difference, it is that there are more and more rabbits all over the mountains.
No one knew who fired the first shot at killing rabbits, but the canteen began to serve rabbit meat every few days. Shen Qingmang turned a blind eye and told them not to let the news leak out and let Si Rong know.
Gu Sui Han has visited her many times since he entered her spiritual palace. She showed him Chinese delicacies in various ways, and Gu Sui Han, who had regained his sense of taste, enjoyed the meal very much.
"Master, why don't you build a house in my spiritual palace? It takes too much of your energy to keep changing in your spiritual palace." Gu Sui Han said while biting ice cream.
"It's not easy for me to control your spirit palace."
"What's the big deal? As long as I accept Master wholeheartedly, can't you borrow my spiritual power to transform my spiritual palace?"
Shen Qingmang shook his head. "That's not a good idea either. Your spiritual palace is where you recuperate, and everything inside should be arranged according to your ideas. Wouldn't adding my things in here make it look out of place?"
"It's not abrupt. Besides, my spiritual palace has my master's home. So even if I can't see my master at night, I can still remember him by seeing his things when I enter the spiritual palace."
After hearing his words, Shen Qingmang fell silent. After a while, he changed the subject and said, "Is the vanilla flavor delicious? I'll make you a chocolate flavor."
"Okay." Gu Sui Han didn't continue to pester.
After he left Lingfu, Shen Qingmang took out a notebook from the bookshelf and opened one of the pages. It was a calendar she had drawn herself.
"Three days left..."
In the original story, the Fangyuan Sect and the Wuwang Sect besieged the Taichu Sect, and the siege would end in three days due to Qiongju's sacrifice. However, in the present world, this period of time has been peaceful.
Li Shutong's words came back to her mind.
Maybe it's time to make a decision.
The next day, she stayed indoors and concentrated on writing something in her study.
On the third day, she went to visit her eldest and second senior brothers, as well as her outer disciples.
On the fourth day, Shen Qingmang came to Gu Suihan's Lingshuangju and stood in front of the door hesitating for a while. As soon as his hand touched the gate, the door opened from the inside.
"I feel the aura of Master. Master actually took the initiative to look for me today." Gu Sui Han looked very happy.
"Sui Han, there is something I want to tell you."
"You said..."
"I..." Shen Qingmang licked her lips and was about to speak when she was suddenly interrupted by a violent thunder. She turned her head sharply in the direction of Wendao Peak. Gu Suihan said, "Is this... the thunder tribulation before ascension? Is someone about to ascend? Is it the master?"
"You stay here honestly, and I'm going to ask for directions to the peak!" Shen Qingmang said this and disappeared in an instant.
She had originally intended to teleport directly to Wendao Peak, but was blocked by a powerful whirlwind. She could only listen to the thunderous roars in mid-air, feeling anxious. Shi Mingli and Qi Xiao also arrived quickly, and the three brothers and sisters looked at each other with worried expressions.
"Master hasn't even gone into seclusion yet, so why is he suddenly going to ascend?" Qi Xiao asked.
"Maybe it was a sudden enlightenment." Shi Mingli said.
"The thunder is getting louder and louder. Can Master, with his old arms and legs, bear it?" Qi Xiao frowned.
"The louder the thunder, the closer we are to ascension." Shi Mingli's voice remained steady.
A moment later, the calamity clouds on the top of Wendao Peak suddenly dissipated, and a colorful auspicious cloud floated over. The three people were overjoyed and quickly rushed to Wendao Peak. This time they were not obstructed.
At the summit, Yun Xuzhou was bathed in a multicolored light, his expression peaceful. His features had visibly changed, his wrinkled skin now firm and firm, his hair a glossy black. He looked at his disciples and the elders from Wendao Peak who had rushed over, and said with a smile, "I have fulfilled my mission and finally ascended to the Immortal Realm. Now it's up to you."
Tears welled up in Shen Qingmang's eyes. "Master..."
"Qingmang, the burden of the Taichu Sect is now on you, but I believe you will be reunited with your master soon, right? The candidate for the next Peak Master of Wuya Peak must be carefully selected. Mingli, thank you for your hard work in taking good care of the junior brothers and sisters. Ah Xiao, you are no worse than them. Be more confident. And Ah Yao... I didn't have time to say goodbye to her, but she is very generous. Just let her know when you have time."
Yun Xuzhou's voice grew increasingly faint, until no one could make out what he was saying. Auspicious clouds slowly descended, and Yun Xuzhou waved to them, then stepped onto the clouds and gradually disappeared.
The Peak Master's Order on Shen Qingmang's waist changed color from blue to red, and at the same time a new blue Peak Master's Order appeared in her hand.
A group of people surrounded her and congratulated her. She responded one by one, but there was not much joy on her face.
"Qiongju, this order from the leader of Wuya Peak concerns the selection of the next generation leader. You can't treat it as a joke like your master did. You must consider it carefully." Elder Li Su said, stroking his beard.
"Does Master Li Su think that my appointment as the Sect Leader is too frivolous?" Shen Qingmang asked.
Li Su accidentally pulled out a few hairs from his beard, not even bothering to cry out in pain as he hurriedly defended himself. "No, no, I have no problem with the Master. You're certainly capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility now. It's just that your disciples... are a little immature. Why not choose from other disciples? For example, I think there are some good ones among Jinyan and Jinting's disciples."
"The position of Peak Master of Wuya Peak has always been decided by the Sect Leader, and other elders have no right to interfere. Back then, my master was willing to listen to you and waited until I accepted a disciple before officially handing me the position of Peak Master. It was because he was kind. But you should also understand me. Unlike my master, I have never been a kind person."
Li Su shut up angrily.
Immortal Wu Jiu said, "There's no rush to appoint the Wuya Peak Master. The most pressing matter is the coronation ceremony. All halls should prepare, especially the Wanshi Hall."
Yiqing wiped the sweat off his forehead. "How come it happened when I was on duty at the Wanshi Hall... Well, everyone, this happened suddenly, and True Lord Wuying didn't inform us in advance. We still need a few days to prepare all the rules. Qing... Sect Leader, please give us some time."
"It's okay." Shen Qingmang waved his hand.
Her mind was still a little blank at the moment. She knew that after she told Yun Xuzhou about Li Shutong's theory of ascension, he would be one step closer to ascension, but she didn't expect it to be this fast.
The crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only her, Shi Mingli, and Qi Xiao. Qi Xiao stretched and said, "I can finally retire to Wendao Peak. Junior Sister, I want to stay in the room facing the sun."
"Tomorrow I will register the candidates for promotion to elders in Wuya Peak and hand them over to you," said Shi Mingli.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
"Why don't you look very happy?" Qi Xiao asked.
"I can't feel happy when I think about not being able to see Master again in the future."
"With your cultivation speed, you should be able to ascend in another one or two hundred years, right? I think the most important thing for you is to quickly train the next successor. The disciples under my tutelage are not promising. I think you should either choose from the eldest brother's tutelage, or choose one of your children."
