Chapter 197 Disbelief
"Back then, when you took in Mingxue, was it also like this?"
"Mingxue and Qingyi are different. Senior Brother Gu and... Senior Sister Lian were kind to me when they were young, but Qingyi..."
He saw a shadow in her, a shadow that he wanted to protect.
Seeing She Zijiang's expression, Shi Tongzhou seemed to understand something.
"Is this also the reason why Mingxue likes that girl so much?"
She Zijiang smiled.
"Yes, I think Mingxue, who has always been against me accepting female disciples, was so close to Qingyi the moment she saw her. It must be because... Qingyi looks a lot like... Senior Sister Lian when she was young."
Speaking of Senior Sister Lian, Shi Tongzhou sighed helplessly.
"But the world of immortal cultivation is so vast. Can you... protect her?"
"I have to try my best, right? When I was young, my cultivation was weak, but now... I am a Yuanying Zhenjun, and I will be even more powerful in the future. As for the so-called intervention of the heavens... I have never believed in it!"
Especially after Patriarch Qin disappeared.
Not many people in Lingdao Sect believed that it was an accident!
Several ancestors later ascended to heaven one after another, and they never gave up looking for Ancestor Qin.
"This is the world of immortal cultivation. Maybe there really is a way of heaven, but at least... it's not like it is now!"
Shi Tongzhou shook his head and sighed.
"I can only tell you that during that day's thunderstorm... neither my ancestor nor I could find any traces of human interference... but we can't rule it out..."
Shi Tongzhou pointed upwards.
This world is so big, Yunze Continent is just one of the many continents for cultivating immortals. Above Yunze Continent is Pankong Realm, and above Pankong Realm are other worlds.
Until the fairyland.
And the powerful beings and some of their methods are not something they can detect now.
"But one thing I can be sure of is that the thunder tribulation was not specifically aimed at Qingyi."
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been split crooked at the beginning, and it wouldn't have been so crooked later.
"Go check out that cloud tea."
"I think now, it's not just our people who are interested in that cloud tea... We just need to add some fuel to the fire when needed..."
Shi Tongzhou smiled and patted She Zijiang on the shoulder.
"You're quite good at making plans. Aren't you afraid that the Loose Cultivator Alliance will vent their anger on you?"
She Zijiang smiled sarcastically, with a dark light in his eyes.
"Over the years, the Loose Cultivator Alliance seemed to be thriving, but it's actually declining day by day. Peel off that layer of gorgeous clothing and you'll find corruption beneath it... Those old guys in the Loose Cultivator Alliance only dare to pay lip service to it."
Shi Tongzhou seemed to have thought of something and sighed.
"Yes, the current Loose Cultivator Alliance is... incomparable to what it was back then!"
"The true leader of the Loose Cultivators Alliance perished along with his Loose Cultivators Alliance. Those left behind... are merely those who hid under the shadow of the old leader. Some, out of respect for the old leader, haven't touched them yet... but if more time passes... people are always greedy..."
"In this competition, I think there are a few promising talents in the Western Alliance of the Loose Cultivators. Junior Brother Wen Hai seems to be interested in recruiting them. He specifically asked us if we have any plans to accept disciples. I think one of them, Yun Ye, is quite good."
"What? Senior Brother wants to accept a disciple?"
Shi Tongzhou waved his hands quickly.
"I'll forget about that. I do want to ask you, do you have any plans to recruit disciples? You haven't planned to go into seclusion for a long time in the past hundred years. You've accepted Xiao Wu. One is fine, two is fine. It's just right to accept one, so the little ones can have some company."
