Chapter 192 Mu Qing
"Who are you?"
Shen Qingyi looked at the hazy figure not far away and became alert.
The man was wearing a light blue Confucian robe and had his back to Shen Qingyi.
The thin back, the torn marks on the Confucian robe he was wearing, and the dark red.
But even so, the man stood straight, looking disheveled but still retaining his dignity.
Hearing Shen Qingyi's voice, the man still did not turn around, but he couldn't help but clenched his hands behind his back.
After an unknown amount of time, the man suddenly sighed.
"I...thought we had failed. I...thought we were finished. I thought everything was over. What was meant to be gone was gone. That was it."
It was a voice full of vicissitudes of life, but Shen Qingyi was a little confused about what he said.
“Senior…you…”
The man with his back to Shen Qingyi suddenly turned around. After Shen Qingyi saw the man's appearance clearly, his pupils shrank.
She has seen this person!
It’s the person in the portrait!
But the elder now looks more embarrassed, older, and more desperate.
"Little doll, do you know me?"
Shen Qingyi was shocked and shook his head.
"I don't know you, Senior, but I have seen your portrait."
"portrait?"
"Yes. I once saw a portrait enshrined in a school. The person in that portrait looked exactly like you."
When Mu Qing heard this, his body stiffened slightly, and then he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"I see! I see! Little kid, you and I are destined to be together."
Mu Qing looked at Shen Qingyi's wrist. There was a subtle mark there, which he was very familiar with.
As soon as Shen Qingyi noticed his gaze, he couldn't help but feel alert.
She didn't know where this place was. Everything around her was white, and it seemed that there were only her and this old man in this world.
Although she had seen this person's portrait and worshipped him.
But seeing someone alive at this moment, it is inevitable that I still feel a little wary out of self-protection.
Mu Qing sensed Shen Qingyi's vigilance and softened her voice.
"You don't have to be afraid. I am only a remnant of soul, and soon I will dissipate into the world. This time you woke me up unintentionally, and here, I can't hurt you."
Shen Qingyi did not let down his guard because of Mu Qing's words.
She has suffered too much over the years.
Seeing Shen Qingyi's expression, Mu Qing couldn't help but be stunned again.
As if thinking of something, Mu Qing looked at Shen Qingyi, a trace of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.
"That's good too. People who practice Taoism should always be vigilant."
For some reason, Shen Qingyi heard some sarcasm in his words.
"This is your life-defining magical weapon, within the space of the Sage Executioner."
Shen Qingyi was shocked.
"And I, Mu Qing, am his former master."
Mu Qing? So his name was Mu Qing. Some of the seniors enshrined in Qingzhi Academy had names, but some did not, like the one in front of him.
Shen Qingyi had been curious before, wondering why some seniors didn't even have names, and had asked Zhao Ji about it, but Zhao Ji didn't seem to be very clear either.
He just said something that everyone in the world of immortal cultivation considered to be common sense.
"Isn't this strange? Many places in the world of immortal cultivation enshrine some of their predecessors. Some are powerful, and some have done things that the locals consider remarkable. Many independent cultivators, or low-key ones, have many experiences. Perhaps they did something inadvertently, and the locals saw them, thought they were powerful, and began to enshrine them. Or maybe it's just too long, and everyone has gradually forgotten."
