Just as Chen Xiu was marveling at how big a gamble his senior sister had made...
Zi Qingyue then took out the Five Thunder Flag and said, "Junior brother, has our master taught you thunder-based spells? If you carry the Five Thunder Flag with you, you'll have an extra layer of protection..."
After saying that, he was still a little worried: "How about we let Uncle Four Eyes and Uncle Thousand Cranes protect Aunt Xue, and I'll go with them to take revenge?"
"Ah...this!"
Chen Xiu was so moved he almost cried.
I never expected that my senior sister would treat me so well and be so open with me after knowing me for such a short time!
Fortunately, Chen Xiu has no conscience, otherwise his conscience would be in great pain!
Chen Xiu paused for a few seconds, then asked, "Senior Sister, aren't you afraid I'll steal these three magic treasures and then run away?"
You won't!
Zi Qingyue answered without the slightest hesitation.
"Why? We've only known each other for less than two days, and you trust me that much?"
Chen Xiu asked curiously.
"It's a woman's intuition!"
Zi Qingyue smiled faintly, a smile like the first gentle breeze across a lake, stirring ripples in Chen Xiu's heart. "From the first moment I saw you, I knew you wouldn't harm me!"
Hearing his senior sister's words, Chen Xiu smiled and said, "Yes, I really won't hurt you!"
As for the magical treasures of the Celestial Master's Mansion, Chen Xiu naturally didn't want any of them.
It's nothing more than dealing with the Emperor's Seven Gods and Six War Gods!
As long as the other side can't sneak into his base, then it's all Chen Xiu's doing!
...
When Master Simu and Master Qianhe learned that Zi Qingyue was going down the mountain, they almost couldn't resist summoning lightning to blast Chen Xiu to pieces!
At first, all the Taoist priests thought that this kid must have some kind of conspiracy to come to Longhu Mountain!
Later, Chen Xiu led Zi Qingyue to the Treasure Pavilion and retrieved the magic treasures of the Celestial Master's Mansion. The Taoists thought Chen Xiu was very good!
Now that they heard he was going to take Zi Qingyue down the mountain, Master Simu and Master Qianhe finally understood that this kid had been planning to kidnap the sect leader from the very beginning!
"This trip is absolutely out of the question!"
Master Qianhe was so angry that he glared at Chen Xiu with his eyes wide and sharp as knives. He said loudly, "Qingyue is the head of my Celestial Master's Mansion. She grew up in the Celestial Master's Mansion. How can she come down the mountain so easily?"
"Who said the sect leader can't go down the mountain?"
Chen Xiu immediately retorted, "If my master Zhang Jiuying hadn't come down the mountain, how could he have met me? If he hadn't met me, who would have dared to touch the statue of our patriarch? And how could you have retrieved our patriarch's Celestial Master Seal and the Male and Female Demon-Slaying Swords?!"
With just one sentence, he left Daoist Qianhe speechless.
"It's precisely because Qingyue has never been down the mountain that she can't go down the mountain with you!"
The glasses of the Four-Eyed Taoist reflected a blinding light as he stood in front of Chen Xiu and Zi Qingyue, loudly proclaiming, "The reason why the previous sect leaders descended the mountain was because those were chaotic times; they descended to save the world! Now that we live in a prosperous age, Qingyue only needs to stay on the mountain and cultivate diligently!"
Upon hearing this, the Taoist priests all echoed, "Yes, yes! Our patriarch said that in times of chaos, we should go down the mountain to save the world, and in times of prosperity, we should retreat to the mountains and forests and not concern ourselves with worldly affairs!"
"Holy crap?"
Chen Xiu hadn't expected these Taoist priests to be so difficult to deal with, and couldn't help but swear.
If it weren't for his senior sister's sake, he wouldn't have bothered to waste his breath!
He is not used to persuading people with reason, but only with physical attacks!
However, in order not to put his senior sister in a difficult position, Chen Xiu chose to persuade her with reason!
"Does this mean that no one suffers in times of prosperity?"
Chen Xiu stared at the Four-Eyed Taoist and said in an even louder voice, "The essence of saving the world is to save people! Just because fewer people are suffering, do you choose to turn a blind eye? Or can you be sure that there are no people suffering in this world?"
In one sentence, he left Master Simu and the other Taoist priests speechless.
"If you ask me..."
Seeing that the Taoist priests remained silent, Chen Xiu continued, "Saving ten thousand people in chaotic times is a meritorious deed, and saving one person in prosperous times is also a meritorious deed! What do you think?"
"..."
The Taoist priests fell silent once again.
After a moment, both Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu nodded and said, "You are right. The essence of saving the world is to save people! Saving ten thousand people is the same as saving one person! We cannot disregard every life just because of the change in numbers!"
Seeing that both Taoist priests had been persuaded, a smile appeared on Zi Qingyue's beautiful face.
She can go down the mountain with her junior brother!
Having grown up, Zi Qingyue had heard many Taoist priests talk about the colorful world down the mountain.
She wasn't interested at first.
However, the thought of Chen Xiu accompanying her made her wish to get down the mountain sooner.
Just as Zi Qingyue was secretly delighted, she heard Chen Xiu say again, "But the two Daoists' concerns are also valid. Senior Sister is so naive, and this is her first time going down the mountain. What if she encounters a swindler... I'm sure Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu wouldn't want that to happen, would they?"
Upon hearing this, Master Qianhe and Master Simu immediately felt a sense of foreboding.
Their eyes all locked onto Chen Xiu.
Finally, Master Four Eyes couldn't hold back any longer and asked loudly, "Boy, what else are you planning to do?"
"Why don't you come down the mountain with us?"
Chen Xiu said with a grin.
Let the eldest sister protect Aunt Xue's family, and let Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu protect the eldest sister.
In this way, even if all six War Gods came to raid his base together, Chen Xiu wouldn't be afraid.
All he needs to do is focus on killing the Seven Gods of the Emperor!
"this……"
Both Master Qianhe and Master Simu fell silent.
Now, they are all over ninety years old, healthy and free from illness, and even in better physical condition than some young people.
However, they are getting old, and they prefer the tranquility of Longhu Mountain to the bustling world below.
"The Celestial Master's Seal!"
"The Male and Female Swords that Slay Evil!"
"The Five Thunder Command Flag!"
Chen Xiu's tone was as exaggerated as it could be, and his voice was very loud, as if he wanted everyone to hear him: "These magical treasures are all on Senior Sister. Aren't you afraid that our ancestral master's magical treasures will be targeted by evil cultivators and ghost cultivators?!"
"this……"
Master Qianhe and Master Simu exchanged a glance.
Finally, he nodded slightly, "Alright, let's go down the mountain with the sect leader!"
"call!"
Chen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't for nothing that he had wasted so much breath; he had finally persuaded the two old men.
"Thank you, my two senior uncles!"
Zi Qingyue was also very happy. She actually wanted to accompany Chen Xiu to Longdu to seek revenge.
With two martial uncles whose strength was no less than her own protecting Aunt Xue, Zi Qingyue thought that as long as she asked to go with Ashu to take revenge, Ashu would definitely not refuse her!
After all, he truly cared for himself.
"Ashu, let's go down the mountain!"
Zi Qingyue said somewhat impatiently.
