The next day, the three of them went to visit the headmaster of Yujing together.

The main peak of Kunlun Mountains is Tianzhu, while the main peak of Shu Mountains is Emei.

The top of Mount Emei is called the "Golden Summit". Since the three of them followed Sima Changyan out early, they were just in time to see the sunrise over the sea of ​​clouds, with golden light falling on the top of Mount Emei, as if the entire top of the mountain was covered with golden light.

In the center of Mount Emei's summit is the Shushan Patriarch's Hall, the first of which is the Sword Stele Pavilion, where tablets of the great sword masters of Mount Shu throughout the ages are enshrined.

Although countless Shushan swordsmen were proud to have their tablets in the ancestral hall, Ling Yunpo inexplicably felt that it looked a bit like a tombstone and was too unlucky... Of course, he was Qiu Changtian now, so he appeared extremely calm and listened to Sima Changyan's introduction to them.

After all, this was not his first time here, and it was Bisheng who was in charge of receiving him last time.

After passing through the Sword Monument Pavilion, you will reach the Incense Hall. Not long after, the headmaster of Yujing came out from the back hall.

The reason why he didn't come to greet him in person was to put on airs and avoid giving people the feeling that "the head of Shushan is waiting here for Master Kunlun"... To put it bluntly, this was a formal visit.

Because it was a formal visit, Qiu Changtian, who had already had this experience, already knew what the next steps were...

Sure enough, the head of Yujing began to speak long and complicated polite words according to ancient etiquette.

When Qiu Changtian was still at the Marrow Cleansing Stage, in order to borrow the Blood Sea Secret Realm of the Demon Locking Tower, he once came to Shushan with the help of Sect Leader Ziwei. The conversation between him and Sect Leader Yujing at that time was so long and boring that he didn't even want to recall it.

Unfortunately, as Qiu Changtian has an invincible character, he has to do everything perfectly and cannot do anything that might be looked down upon.

As for the other two, Luo Baiyuan was not the type who was good at socializing, so he could only politely agree with "indeed" and "indeed".

Xu Yinglian had received family education and was very familiar with classical etiquette; however, she was naturally aloof and not sociable, so she just stood quietly by the side, listening to the conversation between Qiu Changtian and Yujing Sect Master.

After another round of polite nonsense, the head of Yujing finally got down to business:

"The day after tomorrow at noon, Tianji Square."

After saying this, he gestured to Sima Changyan to serve tea.

Serving tea to guests as they leave essentially means "That's enough of what we're saying. Please have some tea."

Qiu Changtian immediately understood, took the teacup and said goodbye and left.

As soon as I left the Patriarch's Hall, I heard Luo Baiyuan say in confusion:

"Is that all? Why didn't you tell us about the secret realm?"

"I've already said it." Xu Yinglian replied, "The day after tomorrow at noon, at the Tianji Square on the Golden Summit of Mount Emei, I guess someone will come to lead the way when we get there."

"I see." Luo Baiyuan understood immediately, "But why are you beating around the bush? Can't you just say it directly?"

Qiu Changtian looked at the senior sister in the Jindan realm speechlessly, thinking that she was really ignorant of the ways of the world!

However, only Kunlun Taiqing Sect can cultivate such a cultivator. After all, as long as one has a firm will and a solid heart, even if one has no social experience, he or she can be noticed by Kunlun and trained with emphasis.

In the words of the Blood Sea Ancestor, even if one is a pig or a dog, as long as one has a clear mind of Taoism, he will be accepted into Kunlun's sect.

On the contrary, cultivators like Sima Changyan, who like socializing and are good at networking, are considered the oddities in the sect and are considered to be "not doing their job properly."

"Because we are worried about the secrets being leaked." Xu Yinglian was helpless and could only speak more clearly. "The Shushan community may not be a monolithic entity. Who knows if there are any hidden agents planted by the Demon Cult?"

It’s not “whether or not”, but “there must be”, Qiu Changtian thought to himself.

Although most of the disciples are different, as long as they have truly entered the management of a sect, they will know that with the current anti-espionage technology in the sects of the cultivation world (basically none), it is impossible to prevent the infiltration of internal spies.

What else can we expect in a world without even an ID card system?

The result is that every sect must have hidden players from other sects, it’s just a matter of numbers.

Under normal circumstances, if Shushan wanted to send people to explore the secret realm of Golden Palace, there was actually no need to beat around the bush... After all, those who are qualified to participate are the leaders of the younger generation, the future backbone of the sect, and the probability of there being traitors among them is very low.

But this time there are external disciples participating, so it is certainly impossible for Master Yujing to give them unreserved trust.

Alas, even if we were so careful, the Yin Guidao still got the news, right?

It is impossible to prevent spies. The larger the organization, the easier it is to infiltrate. The only one who can truly defeat a spy is a stronger spy!

After leaving the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain, Qiu Changtian went to Cuizhu Peak to find Guan Zhan.

As for Guan Zhan's assassination attempt on the elder, according to the implicit hint from Master Yujing, Shushan no longer intends to pursue the matter.

The reason is simple: the Longxi Guan family has already taken action and tried to eliminate the negative impact of this incident.

When both the murderer and the victim are members of the Guan family, the opinions of the Guan family themselves become extremely important.

If the matter had become a big deal, Shushan could still intervene forcefully on the grounds of "affecting the sect's reputation", but now it has not become a big deal. If the Guan family themselves intends to smooth things over, the Shushan high-level officials do not have enough motivation to interfere with the outcome.

As for why the Guan family planned to make a big deal out of a small matter, based on the attitude of the Cuizhu Peak Master that Ling Yunpo observed last time, it was obvious that a large group of people within the Guan family felt that Elder Lengquan was mentally ill for killing the entire family, and as an orphan, Guan Zhan's revenge was beyond reproach.

If the matter gets out of hand and spreads throughout Shushan, the Longxi Guan family will definitely be embarrassed, so they must keep the peace.

After visiting Elder Biyun at Cuizhu Peak, Qiu Changtian finally met Guan Zhan.

This Third Junior Brother was like a lost dog, and was led out by Guan Shanyue in silence - it seemed that the failed assassination attempt on Elder Lengquan had dealt him a great blow.

"Master Chang Geng." Guan Shanyue bowed to him solemnly and said softly, "Thank you for taking care of my brother during his stay in Kunlun."

"I dare not." Qiu Changtian quickly moved aside.

It's strange to say, Guan Shanyue is much more casual and friendly towards Ling Yunpo, but very cautious towards Qiu Changtian. They are like two completely different people.

Maybe I need help from others, alas...

He looked at the silent Guan Zhan and thought to himself, I wonder how much your sister has done for you.

Speaking of which, Senior Sister An seems to dislike Guan Shanyue. I originally thought it was because of their different personalities, but aren’t their brother-control attributes very similar?

So why do the two of them hate each other?

It can't be because he is afraid that the other party will take his brother away, right? Hahahaha...

"Master Chang Geng." Elder Biyun sighed and said, "I think you already know about the past of my Longxi Guan family."

"Please take good care of this child. I think his heart is unstable, which is why he did this wrong thing... But with the ability of Master Ziwei, he will never let him become a demon."

"Well, that's natural." Qiu Changtian said this, feeling a little ashamed.

Ziwei Sect Master only takes care of the chief disciple of each generation, and doesn't take care of the other registered disciples at all? Even the daily teaching is managed by the chief disciple!
