Chapter 96 Chapter 96 Holding his fingers tightly...
When the five people walked out of the cave, golden sunlight poured down, as if covering their shoulders with golden sand.
Wei Zhiyan saw Madam Wei in the middle at a glance.
"elder sister!"
For the first time in a hundred years, the Purple Cloud Palace Master, who had remained calm even when a mountain collapsed before him, lost his composure.
Madam Wei's eyes were just blurred.
The next moment, her sister flashed in front of her, rushed over, and held her tightly, refusing to let go.
The speed is faster than a group of sword cultivators who practice physical techniques.
Madam Wei hugged her back.
"Sister! Are you really okay?" Wei Zhiyan cried.
Madam Wei also choked up and said, "Yes, my poison has been removed and the curse has been lifted. Zhiyan, I will not die."
Wei Zhiyan said: "That's great, that's great..."
For a cultivator, a hundred years passes like an arrow, in the blink of an eye.
To a younger sister, it seems like there is no end.
She grew up to the point where she dared to fantasize about her sister's recovery at first, but later she didn't even dare to think about it.
When this scene really happened, Wei Zhiyan almost thought she was dreaming. She had to hold Madam Wei's hand tightly to believe that she was indeed alive.
On this side, the two sisters were hugging each other and crying.
On the other side, Sect Master Gu also received greetings from many old friends, who all asked about his illness.
Sect Leader Gu patiently answered all the questions one by one, and Gu Jingyun accompanied him and occasionally answered a few words.
Upon learning that the couple had recovered, but had been injured for too long and had drained their health, and needed to rest, their friends congratulated them.
"Congratulations!"
"Good times will come after bad times. Once you get through this, your future journey to immortality will be smooth sailing!"
"I have some thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. I'll send them to you later. Don't refuse them."
Sect Leader Gu clasped his hands together and thanked politely.
Finally, he added: "It's all thanks to Master Bo and Yan'er. Without them, I and my wife would have been doomed."
Everyone knows who Master Bo is.
But...Yan'er?
Except for some people who knew the situation, all the sword practitioners were confused and puzzled.
When Mrs. Wei heard this, she quickly wiped away her tears.
She pulled Jiang Yan, who was hiding nearby, to the center of the crowd.
"Everyone, this is Jiang Yan, our youngest son. Yan'er is very good at making pills and has made pills and elixirs that can break the curse."
Although I don’t understand why Madam Wei suddenly stuttered.
But that doesn't stop everyone from praising and flattering it.
The miraculous doctor Master Bo Gu is reborn, and his medical skills are unmatched.
Young friend Jiang Yan is extremely knowledgeable at a young age and is a genius in alchemy. He will surely achieve great success in the art of alchemy in the future.
As for why it is the youngest son.
Perhaps the clan leader and his wife adopted him as their adopted son out of gratitude for saving his life and because they had a good impression of him.
Bo Qin was impatient to listen to this, so he said to Gu Jingyun, "I'll come to see you later," and turned around and left with Jiang Yingtong.
Jiang Yan also wanted to run away.
He deliberately hid aside because he saw a large group of unfamiliar faces.
I don't want to steal the limelight, nor do I want to participate in socializing.
Unexpectedly, they were having a good chat over there, but suddenly the topic turned to him.
Jiang Yan was forced to respond to the curious inquiries from a group of sword practitioners.
Someone asked: "My friend, you have achieved success in refining the elixir. Who is your master?"
Jiang Yan thought for a moment and said, "I studied with Taoist Wu Yun for a period of time."
The teacher of the alchemy class!
Everyone said "Oh" in understanding, and then expressed confusion: "Hey, but I remember that Taoist Wuyun went to the Hehuan Sect as a guest official, and he hasn't accepted any other disciples in recent years."
Jiang Yan nodded: "I am a disciple of the Hehuan Sect, and my master is Hehuan Zhenren. I have taken the alchemy class taught by Wuyun Taoist, and I majored in swordsmanship and Hehuan skills."
Sword cultivators: “Oh!”
A few seconds passed.
Sword cultivators: “Ah???”
Even Sect Master Gu and Madam Wei were surprised. They had previously seen Jiang Yan carrying a long sword and thought he was a sword practitioner, with additional training in alchemy, formations, and medicine.
What's more, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect have always been famous for their amorous nature, and Yan'er is nothing like a sea king.
I didn't expect that he was a sword practitioner, and also practiced the Hehuan technique, and supplemented with alchemy, formation, and medical skills.
...You know too much!
Sect Leader Gu glanced at his eldest son with a complicated expression.
——The Master of Tianji Pavilion said that your Taoist partner is an all-round talent, which is really accurate. Is it right to ask you to study?
Gu Jingyun didn't care about his father's teasing.
He looked at the young man who was being praised by everyone, with a hint of pride in his black pupils.
Ayan is so outstanding.
Deserves everyone's admiration and praise.
Jiang Yan couldn't help it, and turned around and gave Gu Jingyun a pleading look.
Why haven't you come to the rescue yet?
Gu Jingyun burst out laughing, strode forward and held Jiang Yan's hand.
"My dear seniors, my father and mother still need to recuperate, so please go back today."
A group of sword practitioners looked down at the two of them holding hands, then looked up to see their couple's scabbards and sword tassels, their shoulders against each other, in an overly intimate posture.
“…………”
So this is what my youngest son meant!!
When everyone has left, only those who are particularly familiar with each other remain.
"Master." Ling Hanzhang finally found a gap and walked forward with red eyes.
"You're an adult, yet you're still crying." Sect Leader Gu said in a light tone, rubbing the top of his head.
When Ling Hanzhang was feeling touched by the tender moment, Sect Leader Gu suddenly turned his face away and asked in a semi-serious manner, "You are already 113 years old, how come you are only at the Nascent Soul stage? How is your Luoying Sword Skill going?"
Ling Hanzhang was speechless: "..."
No way, checking homework as soon as we meet.
Don’t you even give me a little time to be touched and to relax?
Everyone was amused by the young man's depressed look. Sect Leader Gu changed his face in three seconds and said cheerfully, "It was just a joke. How could I be so unkind?"
Ling Hanzhang: “.”
That’s hard to say!
People with the surname Gu are very cunning.
Ling Hanzhang looked at Jiang Yan and asked for help implicitly.
——It’s a good thing that Senior Brother doesn’t add insult to injury. I can’t count on you. I can only rely on you!
Jiang Yan was puzzled. What happened to Han Zhang? Was his eyelid cramping?
He was about to ask with concern when his palm, which was clasped with the man's, was suddenly lightly touched.
Jiang Yan: “?”
Jiang Yan: “!!”
Jiang Yan reacted suddenly.
This is not a cramp, it's a cry for help!
"It's too windy here, not a good place to talk. Let's go somewhere else to talk about serious matters, such as the conspiracy of the demons. Dad and mom just woke up, and there are still many things they don't know." Jiang Yan said hurriedly.
When he mentioned the demons, everyone straightened their attitude and became serious.
Ling Dai also said: "I was just about to explain this to the Sect Master. The demons have set up a big chess game!"
Sect Leader Gu nodded: "Okay."
Everyone moved to the meeting hall. Ling Hanzhang secretly gave Jiang Yan a look of appreciation and gratitude, winking at him all the way.
Jiang Yan looked at it for a long time.
He was confused.
Jiang Yan quietly went to ask Gu Jingyun.
"What does Han Zhang mean by winking? Is his eyebrow cramped this time? Do you want Master Bo to give him an injection?"
Gu Jingyun: "...He wanted to express his gratitude."
Jiang Yan suddenly realized: "Oh!"
Gu Jingyun wanted to laugh.
He can't laugh when people are wooden to him.
But seeing Jiang Yan being wooden towards others is simply a pleasure.
Council Hall.
Everyone found a seat.
Jiang Yan was pulled by Madam Wei to sit beside her.
As soon as he got to the chair, Gu Jingyun sat down on his right.
Jiang Yan asked quietly: "Aren't you going to the front?"
——referring to the second chair below the chief.
Gu Jingyun said indifferently: "I just love being next to you."
At this moment, Sect Leader Gu stood in front of the second chair and called out, "Jingyun, come and sit in the main seat."
Everyone looked normal, but Gu Jingyun shook his head.
Sect Master Gu said, "On the way to the meeting hall, I heard Ling Dai talk a lot about you. You have been in charge of the Sword Sect and the Yuyuan Chamber of Commerce for a hundred years, and you have managed them in an orderly manner, and they are thriving."
"When you wanted to set up the Heavenly Wolf Guard, I had my doubts. But now I see that the Heavenly Wolf Guard is a well-known and powerful figure in the Five Continents."
"Jingyun, don't refuse." Sect Leader Gu said, "This position will be yours sooner or later."
Gu Jingyun still refused.
The man sat steadily beside Jiang Yan, propped his forehead with his hand, and said with a nonchalant smile: "You are strong and healthy, you can still take charge for another 500 years."
The clan leader had no choice but to continue talking.
Gu Jingyun ordered Ling Hanzhang: "Go sit in the front."
Ling Hanzhang looked at a loss, as if asking “Ah? Me?”
"Alright, we are all family, what's the point of being so particular!" Madam Wei raised her eyebrows.
Ling Dai agreed: "That's right."
He drove Master Gu to the main seat, sat down leisurely on the second chair, and waved for Ling Hanzhang to sit below him.
Ling Dai spoke confidently:
"I have been sitting in this chair for a hundred years. I am used to it. Today I am too lazy to move. Han Zhang, don't just stand there. Come and sit anywhere."
Just sit anywhere you want.
But Ling Hanzhang was still pushed to the front in a daze.
He looked quite flustered.
He was fidgeting and kept looking back at Gu Jingyun.
Everyone is already seated.
Sect Leader Gu said nothing more and began to inquire about what had happened in the past hundred years and the conspiracy of the demon clan that had just been mentioned.
Ling Dai knew all these, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he asked Ling Hanzhang to come and he only made supplementary remarks.
Ling Hanzhang felt as if in a dream. Looking around, he saw that all the elders in the room had kind and encouraging expressions on their faces.
He felt like a child during the Chinese New Year, who was called by his elders to "come and perform a show for everyone."
Ling Hanzhang reported haltingly.
He stuttered at first, but later he got used to it and his speech became more and more fluent, with clear logic and organization.
Jiang Yan watched in silence for a long time.
He felt that everyone seemed to have agreed on something in just a few words.
It is very impolite to whisper in the ear of an elder, so Jiang Yan resisted the urge, but Gu Jingyun came closer and asked him via voice transmission: "What are you thinking about? Your brows are furrowed."
As they used the method of voice transmission, other people present could not hear what they were saying unless they deliberately used spiritual power to eavesdrop.
If someone used spiritual power, Gu Jingyun would also notice it.
The chairs in the meeting hall are all armchairs.
Jiang Yan looked around like a thief and moved his chair quietly.
Mrs. Wei saw it, but not only did she ignore it, she also took the initiative to move to the other side of the armrest, farther away from them.
The young couple was absent-minded during the meeting.
Those who noticed this scene all chose to turn a blind eye.
"Brother." Jiang Yan also called Gu Jingyun by voice transmission.
The man smiled: "Hmm?"
Jiang Yan asked: "Why don't you sit in the front?"
"Don't you like me sitting next to you?" Gu Jingyun deliberately misinterpreted.
Jiang Yan said anxiously: "You know that's not what I meant."
Gu Jingyun stopped teasing him and replied seriously: "I am not happy with you sitting there and asking to take over the sect."
"You are the young master." Jiang Yan asked curiously.
The man shook his head imperceptibly.
"What's so good about being the young master? It looks impressive, and everyone has to bow and call you 'young master'. But in fact, everyone from the living creatures in the world to the annual enrollment of disciples in the Sword Sect has to be involved."
Gu Jingyun said lazily, "I don't like to care about these things. I was just forced to do it. No one took over, so I just did it myself."
He said: "In the past hundred years, I have been trying to find ways to train Han Zhang, just waiting for him to take over this basket."
The world's number one sect, a position that everyone envies, is like a piece of taffy that cannot be thrown away in Gu Jingyun's mouth.
"Yu Hanyi also wants to be the leader of the Sword Sect. He thinks that since I have the blood of the Gu family in my veins, I will definitely be the next leader."
"After my father persuaded me to study, people around me started calling me 'Young Master'. From then on, he held a grudge against me, thinking that my father wanted to leave the position to me. In fact, my father just couldn't stand me skipping school and couldn't stand his son being a second-generation dandy."
Gu Jingyun was silent for a while, then said:
"Actually, if he wants it, he can just tell me. I won't fight for it."
"Yu Hanyi's mind is full of intrigues and he thinks too much. That chair is not the dragon throne. Even if it is the dragon throne, I don't want it."
Jiang Yan only noticed: "Brother has skipped school before?"
Gu Jingyun smiled and said, "Of course, I was caught and punished a few times. I used to be most afraid of seeing the teacher."
"..." Jiang Yan said tactfully: "There is something I haven't told you."
Gu Jingyun raised his eyebrows.
Jiang Yan: "I am the assistant teacher of the instructor in the magic academy. Although I haven't graduated yet, I have confirmed that I will stay on to teach."
A future teacher.
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Gu Jingyun pretended not to understand and changed the subject: "Anyway, whoever wants to be the sect leader can do so."
"I won't stay in the Sword Sect forever."
Gu Jingyun lowered his arms and secretly held Jiang Yan's hand under the cover of his wide sleeves.
"Ayan, you have met my parents, but I have not met your parents yet."
The man's eyebrows were gentle, and he said softly: "I still have to accompany you home."
Jiang Yan was shocked.
He held Gu Jingyun's hand, interlocking their fingers tightly.
