After Xue Kun knelt down and bowed, he saw Ji Qingya was still standing. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat and secretly sent a message.
"Junior brother, you must not be disrespectful to Xuan Zun!"
Ji Qingya still didn't react. Xue Kun gritted his teeth and decisively reached out to tug at the hem of Ji Qingya's clothes.
Ji Qingya was pulled to his knees on the ground, his eyes were dazed, and he simply couldn't bear to watch.
What the hell is this kid doing?!
Xue Kun cursed in his heart and raised his hand to apologize for him, but he saw that the woman at the steps of the gate had already left.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and slapped Ji Qingya hard on the forehead.
"You are so bold! This is the Sword Master's first time in Heaven, and you dare to offend him? Aren't you afraid of being used to establish your authority?"
Ji Qingya covered his forehead in pain, but finally came to his senses and grinned, revealing his white teeth.
"I'm not afraid, haha!"
He stood up, brushed off the non-existent dust on his knees, and flew away in a flash.
Xue Kun was surprised: "You're not going back to practice?"
"Little brother will be back soon!"
Xue Kun had a headache. This kid just did whatever he wanted.
wrong!
His expression suddenly changed. Why was the direction that boy was flying towards the palace of the new Sword Master?
"Junior Brother!"
He shouted urgently and chased after him immediately, but he didn't catch up. He watched Ji Qingya walk into the gate of the Sword Palace.
“Oh no!”
He stopped and, in his anxiety, ignored everything else and clasped his hands together to send out a thought.
"Master, Junior Brother has gotten into big trouble this time!"
…
The Sword Palace had not yet arranged servants, and it was extremely deserted. However, there were many immortals watching outside, hoping that they would be noticed by Xuan Zun and achieve success overnight.
The scene of Ji Qingya rushing in was naturally seen by them, causing an uproar.
Speculations arose all over the place, with all kinds of rumors circulating.
The most widely spread, yet most outrageous, rumor was that Ji Qingya intended to betray his master and join the Sword Palace.
This statement reached its peak the moment Palace Master Ye Qing showed up and personally visited the Sword Palace.
Both Xuanzuns are female immortals, and two masters are competing for one disciple. What kind of fierce competition will be staged in the heaven next?
Rumors from the outside world were becoming more and more rampant, but at this moment in the Sword Palace, the scene was completely different.
"Master, this is the Stone Sister that your disciple mentioned to you!"
Ji Qingya happily introduced Xiang Sheng, but Palace Master Ye Qing was slightly startled when she heard this, and her full preparedness turned into astonishment.
Xue Kun, who accompanied him, was stunned by his junior brother's words.
He turned his gaze blankly to look at Xiang Sheng, who smiled faintly: "Your Highness Xue, how are you?"
Xue Kun took a step back in fear, feeling flattered: "Master Sword Master, you are too kind to me. I am unworthy of the title of Your Highness."
However, although he was frightened, he could recognize that it was Boss Shi's voice.
He couldn't help but look at Ji Qingya who was looking smug at the side. Junior brother's luck was really amazing.
Not only was he spotted by his master at first sight and accepted as his last disciple, but he also went out to gain experience and recognized a random sister, who unexpectedly became a Xuanxian-level existence.
I also benefited from it...
While Xue Kun was filled with emotion, Ye Qing suddenly spoke up: "I still don't know what the Sword Master's name is?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes swept over the heroic face of Palace Master Ye Qing, and he replied with a smile: "Xiang Sheng, the character for grass is Sheng."
"Xiang Sheng? Sister Stone, you are not..."
Ji Qingya was confused and was interrupted by Ye Qing before he could finish his words. "This young man is being ridiculous. I wonder if Xiang Jianzun will not take it to heart. Can you and I go inside and talk in detail?"
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes and nodded in agreement: "That's exactly what I meant."
Xue Kun listened to the conversation between the two and tactfully pulled Ji Qingya down quickly.
Soon, Xiang Sheng and Ye Qing were the only ones left in the empty hall.
Ye Qing took a step closer to Sheng, his tone gentle: "I don't know why, but this is clearly the first time I've met Xiang Jianzun, but I feel very familiar with him."
Xiang Sheng felt the same way, but he wasn't sure whether this was a subtle trick the other party was using to deliberately build closer ties.
She did not respond, and after a short silence, she said, "I believe Palace Master Yeqing has already received Ji Gan's message.
Palace Master Yeqing, there is no need to worry that I will threaten your position in Heaven. I, the Sword Master, am here to promote reconciliation among the three races.
After the matter is done, I will leave."
When facing someone like Ye Qing who has reached the pinnacle, it is better to speak directly about some things, which will save time and effort.
Ye Qing didn't expect Xiang Sheng to be so direct. He was stunned for a moment, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.
"I have long intended to promote reconciliation among the three armies! Unfortunately, Ji Gan is so absorbed in cultivation that he doesn't care about this matter. It would be difficult for me to reverse the situation on my own.
He suddenly changed his mind, maybe you were involved?"
Faced with this question, Xiang Sheng remained noncommittal and simply said, "The taboo feeds on people's hearts. I aim to weaken its power. A ceasefire among the three tribes is the best way to do this."
"You're right."
Ye Qing's face darkened slightly: "The three tribes went to war that year because Nightmare took over the body of the previous leader of the Ancient Tribe and interfered, causing disputes.
This meaningless dispute should have ended long ago. Since you are here for this, what are you going to do?"
Xiang Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "The three tribes have been fighting for a long time and have accumulated resentment. Forcing a ceasefire is not an option."
"You mean, it's better to open up than to block?"
Ye Qing's eyes flashed, and he thought carefully, "Fight one last battle, and wipe out all the grudges after the battle. It is indeed feasible.
But how can we convince the ancient tribe and the ancient demon to reach an agreement?"
"Palace Master Yeqing, don't worry about this. Ji Gan had already reached an agreement with the other two clans before I came here."
