Elder Shi Ding was a little annoyed.
Because his daughter Shi Liuli had sat in the back row of the classroom at some point, and was having a pleasant conversation with a male disciple.
He completely ignored the fact that his old father was giving a lecture, which made him feel angry and ignored.
Of course, at this moment he was being "actively stared at" by a group of disciples who wanted to become their disciples, so he could not show anything unusual, otherwise these disciples would swarm around him like flies... or if they noticed anything unusual, they would gather around Liuli, which would be even more troublesome.
Therefore, he just finished the lecture slowly, and then announced the end of get out of class loudly at the exact time.
When Shi Liuli heard his father announce the end of get out of class, he said goodbye to Luo Yan with a smile, then ran out of the classroom, following his father's hurried footsteps.
"Father!" After returning to the cave, she grabbed Elder Shi Ding's arm and called sweetly, "Father, you have worked hard teaching. Your daughter will make tea for you."
"Okay, okay." Elder Shi Ding laughed heartily. When Shi Liuli went to the inner room to get tea leaves, he suddenly reacted.
Hmm? Wait a minute, I want to ask her about that young male disciple. Don't forget it.
Seeing Shi Liuli coming out with a teacup, Elder Shi Ding coughed and said:
"Liuli..."
"Father, please have some tea." Shi Liuli obediently presented the teacup.
"Oh, okay." Elder Shi Ding took a sip with satisfaction, "Well, not bad, your tea-making skills have improved."
"That's good." Shi Liuli turned around and said, "I still have homework to do today, so I'll leave first."
"Hmm... Hey, wait a minute." Elder Shi Ding thought he had almost forgotten the important matter. "Liuli, when father was teaching today, I seemed to see you made a new friend?"
Shi Liuli was very perceptive and immediately understood what his father was worried about, so he sneered:
"Father."
"What's wrong?"
"I think there's something wrong with him. He might be a spy from outside."
"Something's wrong?" Elder Shi Ding put down his teacup and asked in surprise, "What exactly is it?"
"He's playing dumb." Shi Liuli said confidently, "He looks innocent on the surface, but his actual character is not like that."
Elder Shi Ding was silent for a moment, swallowed the "that's it" that he almost blurted out, and gently explained to his daughter:
"Liuli, it's normal to disguise yourself. After all, the inside of our Yuqing Temple is not as safe as you usually see. When father first joined the sect..."
"Stop!" Seeing that his father was about to start "thinking about the past" again, Shi Liuli hurriedly called for a stop, "Stop, stop, stop! I understand. What father meant was that he was only doing this to protect himself, right?"
"Yes." Elder Shi Ding said with a smile, "The world of cultivation is all about the survival of the fittest. Sects just use rules to constrain competition and cover it up under a seemingly fair order. Disguising oneself and guarding against others are all normal behaviors."
"Besides, if he really was a spy from another sect, you wouldn't have noticed something was wrong so easily."
"Humph." Shi Liuli still had some doubts and argued, "But he really didn't reveal any flaws. It's just that my intuition tells me that he is just disguising himself."
"Really?" Elder Shi Ding did not continue to argue with his daughter, but asked, "What about his knowledge and talent? I mean, put aside your subjective impression of him and evaluate his talents and qualifications objectively."
"My daughter has tried to test him." Shi Liuli wrinkled her nose and said, "His theoretical foundation is very solid. He should have read the Daoist Canon. The contents of my father's class are not difficult for him..."
At this point, she suddenly remembered something and exclaimed:
"Oh, right, when I took him to take the entrance exam that day, he clearly said that he had never read the Daoist Canon!"
"There must be something wrong here! I'm going to check his entrance exam answer sheet and score!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Liuli turned around and ran away.
Elder Shi Ding felt helpless as he watched his daughter leave in a hurry.
Although he didn't quite believe that Luo Yan was a spy, since his daughter rarely wanted to do something serious, he let her go and play.
Well, just in case, it is better to eliminate hidden dangers in advance.
"Nian Nu?" Elder Shi Ding called.
The white jade puppet standing in the corner of the room suddenly opened its eyes.
"Elder Shi Ding."
"Go check the exam records of the new disciple Luo Yan... Well, from viewing the Daozang to the entrance exam, send me the entire video of his process."
…
After Luo Yan finished his class, he returned to his residence in the temple.
There are caves inside Yuqing Temple for disciples to live in, but the weird thing is that it costs money to rent them, and the price is quite high.
Fortunately, with Qiu Changtian's support, Luo Yan was able to afford the place - he simply paid a year's fee and rented a small single room.
After returning to the cave, Luo Yan called out to the Kunlun Mirror in his mind and said:
"Take me to Shushan."
Kunlun Mirror mechanically said:
[Countdown to world destruction: one thousand years.]
[Please hurry up and find the Heaven-Repairing Stone. ]
"Stop!" Luo Yan said helplessly, "Can you skip the first two lines? I've memorized them by heart by repeating them every time."
"Then recite it backwards for me to hear?" Kunlun Jing said indignantly.
Luo Yan: ...
He recited the two sentences word for word backwards, then sneered:
"Stupid Jing, stupid Jing, have you forgotten that my current talent is 'understanding a thousand things after hearing one thing'? With my current extraordinary intelligence, let alone reciting lines backwards, even mental arithmetic is no problem at all."
"What is advanced mathematics... Never mind." Kunlun Mirror said honestly:
[Point 2: Shushan Shangqing Sect, Qingluo Peak. ]
[Character identity: Ling Yunpo. ]
[The Mirror Flower and Water Moon template is overwritten, and time travel is in progress. 】
After returning to Qingluo Peak of Shushan, Sword Immortal Ling Yunpo opened his eyes and saw a package on the table.
It was full of spirit stones that Qiu Changtian earned from completing missions.
He picked up the package and went out to find Senior Sister An, intending to give her a surprise.
As a result, after searching all the rooms, there was no trace of An Zhisu.
Then, Ling Yunpo suddenly remembered that before saving the file last time, his senior sister told him to take some things to the market inside Shushan to sell them in exchange for spirit stones.
Alas, this is the problem with frequent save files. I jumped from Shushan to Kunlun to do a bunch of things, then jumped to Penglai to do a bunch of things again, and finally jumped back to Shushan. I had almost forgotten most of the situation on Lingyunpo's side.
He returned to his compartment and dropped the package back on the table.
His eyes suddenly caught sight of the black flying sword hanging on the wall.
This sword was the flying sword that flew out of the sword pool in response to the call after he resonated with the sword pool that day.
The refining process went very smoothly. When I was learning sword-fighting with Senior Sister An, this flying sword was as easy to use as my arm and was very obedient.
However, since there was no master to help identify it, he still knew nothing about this flying sword.
Ling Yunpo stretched out his hand and the flying sword immediately flew over and landed in his palm.
"Ajing, what do you think the name of this sword is?" Ling Yunpo flicked the blade with his hand, making a clear and crisp sound, and sighed in his heart.
"Senior sister said it looks very similar to the Qingping Sword recorded in ancient books, but that Qingping Sword was destroyed in the battle between Chan and Jie a long time ago, so could this be a recast Qingping Sword?"
Before Kunlun Mirror could answer, another unfamiliar, gentle female voice rang in his mind:
"That's fine if you want to. Just call me Qingping from now on."
