Chapter 298 I asked Lao Jin to dig a hole for you
Qingxia Sect.
Qingxia Sect's chief disciple Tang Yuan married the daughter of the Sect's leader.
This is a great event for the Qingxia Sect.
Qingxia Sect sent out invitations widely, inviting almost all the surrounding sects, and many cultivators began to rush to Qingxia Sect to attend the banquet.
The young Taoist priest also appeared at the foot of Qingxia Sect with a dragon snake.
"Are you Brother Tang's master?"
The disciples of Qingxia Sect at the foot of the mountain were welcoming guests. When they heard the young Taoist priest's words, they immediately became angry. Isn't Senior Brother Tang's master their sect leader?
This person in front of him came to Qingxia Sect to pretend to be the sect master. Is he tired of living? Just as the welcoming disciples were about to take action, a figure came down the mountain quickly.
"master."
Tang Yuan was very excited to see the Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest looked at Tang Yuan, who now had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and smiled slightly.
"Master, please follow me."
Tang Yuan took the Taoist priest up the mountain, leaving the Qingxia Sect's disciples looking at each other in bewilderment.
Is this person really Brother Tang's master? "When Brother Tang joined our Qingxia Sect, he didn't seem to practice, so where did his master come from?"
"Why worry so much? Since Senior Brother Tang said so himself, it must be correct."
The yard on the mountain.
Tang Yuan was very excited. He hadn't seen his master for so many years, and his master hadn't changed at all compared to the past.
The master and disciple talked in the yard for a whole day, with Tang Yuan mainly talking and the Taoist priest listening quietly.
Tang Yuan told the Taoist priest that he had practiced very hard over the years and not only had he broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, but was already in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
In addition, his father's two confidants have also begun to look for some of the subordinates who were loyal to his father in the past few years, and have already gathered a lot of people in the Panlong Sect.
Tang Yuan informed the Taoist priest that he was going to announce to the public at this wedding the truth about how the Grand Elder of Panlong Sect murdered his father.
Because all the surrounding sects will come to participate in this wedding, this will ruin the reputation of the Panlong Sect's great elder.
The Taoist priest was silent for a while after hearing Tang Yuan's words, and then asked, "What about your fiancée?"
"Die'er will understand me."
The Taoist priest sighed and said nothing more. Tang Yuan said that he wanted to listen to the master's teachings, but the Taoist priest did not make any statement.
Finally, Tang Yuan had to leave, because his wedding was the day after tomorrow and he had many things to do.
The Taoist priest did not see Tang Yuan for the next two days.
Until the wedding day, when the guests were all present, the Taoist priest still stayed in the yard. He told Tang Yuan that he didn't like crowds and that he would be fine in this yard.
In the main hall of Qingxia Sect, Tang Yuan, dressed in his wedding attire, stood on a high platform, receiving the envious and blessing gazes of many guests.
As soon as the bride appears, the ceremony begins.
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted.
"The wedding of the young sect leader is a great joy for our sect. The spirit of the old sect leader in heaven will surely be pleased."
The middle-aged man who had gone to Wuyi Mountain to look for Tang Yuan stood up from the crowd. The crowd instantly became chaotic, and many people looked at Tang Yuan with a curious look.
In the entire Qingxia Sect, only the Sect Master knew Tang Yuan’s identity and background.
"Young Master, you are the son of our Panlong Sect's master. Back then, the Sect Master was persecuted by villains. In that critical moment, I followed the Sect Master's order to take you and flee. Later, I fostered you in a farmer's home. When I got rid of the pursuers and went to look for you, you had already disappeared."
The man told the truth of that year in one breath. When the Panlong Sect's great elder Gu Junli attempted to murder the sect leader, he fled with the infant Tang Yuan, but later lost Tang Yuan.
It was not until recently that he heard about the marriage of the eldest disciple of Qingxia Sect. He inquired about the news and found out that Tang Yuan was about the same age as the young sect master. Only then did he get the invitation and come to the banquet.
Now when he saw Tang Yuan, he recognized him as the Young Sect Master at a glance, because Tang Yuan and the Sect Master had very similar features.
The guests at the scene were in an uproar.
Many people have heard about what happened in the Panlong Sect back then.
The news released by Panlong Sect to the outside world was that the sect leader died suddenly after failing to break through in his cultivation, and finally Panlong Sect was taken over by the grand elder. At that time, many sects felt that there was something fishy about it, but because it was none of their business, these sects did not pay much attention to it.
There were also elders from the Panlong Sect present at the scene. They were Gu Junli's subordinates and naturally refuted it immediately. However, the middle-aged man produced evidence, including the identities of those who had hunted him down, and most importantly, a letter left by the leader of the Panlong Sect.
As a close friend of the Panlong Sect's leader, the Qingxia Sect's leader could naturally recognize the handwriting. The man handed over the letter, and after the Qingxia Sect's leader took a few glances at it, he confirmed that it was written by the Panlong Sect's leader himself.
The truth was revealed and Tang Yuan was angry.
The heroes were outraged.
Many of the participants were leaders of various sects, and Gu Junli's behavior was unacceptable to them.
Punish Gu Junli! A grand wedding turned into a crusade against Gu Junli.
Tang Yuan expressed his gratitude to the guests on the scene, and the leader of Qingxia Sect also promised to help Tang Yuan take back Panlong Sect.
Various sects responded and directly formed an alliance to attack Gu Junli.
As for the wedding, it naturally could not be held. However, for each faction, they could gain more benefits by attacking Gu Junli.
Because Tang Yuan promised that when he took back Panlong Sect, he would definitely express his gratitude to everyone.
In the yard.
The young Taoist priest sensed the result, sighed, and said, "Let's go back."
The dragon snake nodded.
The man and the snake left the yard and left Qingxia Sect.
…
…
A year later, the Taoist priest received a letter from Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan's handwriting was full of vigor and vitality, just like his current state. After establishing the alliance, it took a year for the alliance to finally attack the Panlong Sect. He also killed Gu Junli to avenge his parents and took back the Panlong Sect.
Tang Yuan wrote this letter to invite the Taoist priest to attend his coronation ceremony as the leader of the clan.
"I am just a country bumpkin, I am not worthy of being on the stage, so I won't go."
The young Taoist priest asked the messenger to bring a reply, telling Tang Yuan to come back and visit if he had time.
Soon, Tang Yuan replied to the letter and said that he would return to Wuyi Mountain to visit his master after he had sorted out the sect's affairs.
Unfortunately, there are too many things happening in the Panlong Sect.
Tang Yuan has not reached the Jindan realm yet. Although he is the sect leader and needs to suppress the other elders, he needs to spend more energy on this. In addition, he had promised the benefits to the sects in the alliance. Now that he has become the sect leader, he is thinking about how to minimize the loss of interests.
After all, he is now the leader of Panlong Sect, and the Panlong Sect’s industry is his industry.
More than ten years passed since I started to be busy.
Tang Yuan did not hide anything from his master and told him in the letter what he had done over the years.
They suppressed the elders who refused to obey, and in order to avoid future troubles, they even attacked the elders' descendants.
He promoted many of his own confidants to occupy important positions in the sect, and at the same time hunted down the remnants of Gu Junli, never letting any of them go.
It was announced to the public that anyone who dared to shelter these remnants would be regarded as an enemy of the Panlong Sect.
The young Taoist priest wrote back to Tang Yuan in person for the first time.
It is okay to kill Gu Junli, and it is also okay to kill Gu Junli's descendants, but there is no need to kill all the descendants of those who are loyal to Gu Junli. These people are loyal to Gu Junli only because of benefits, and they are not Gu Junli's die-hard fans.
Soon, the young Taoist priest received a reply from Tang Yuan.
This was the first time that Tang Yuan opposed the young Taoist priest's words in a letter.
Tang Yuan said, "Master, you are living a leisurely life in the mountains and don't know that people in the outside world are treacherous. If I don't kill all these people, if any of their descendants or children rise up, it will be a disaster for the Panlong Sect."
I myself am a good example. Gu Junli sent people to hunt me down, and after I escaped, he didn't take it seriously, which led to my revenge.
I don't want this kind of thing to happen to me again.
The only correct thing to do is to wipe out the danger completely and nip it in the bud.
Only by doing this will other people in Panlong Sect not dare to betray me, because they have to consider the price of betraying me, which will bring disaster to their descendants.
The dragon snake looked at the young Taoist priest reading Tang Yuan's reply with worry in his eyes. He felt that the young Taoist priest seemed to have aged a lot.
After that, no more letters came from the Panlong Sect.
Wuyi Mountain welcomed several other guests.
An old Taoist priest moved to Wuyi Mountain with several of his disciples, found the old site of Hanshan Gate, and occupied it.
The old Taoist priest is at the Foundation Establishment stage, while several of his disciples are only at the Qi Condensation stage.
The old Taoist is the head of the Qingyun Sect. Just like the Hanshan Sect back then, he also left his original sect and migrated here.
Unlike the Hanshan Sect, the Taoist's Qingyun Sect was originally at the bottom of the mountain range. After a powerful Jindan sect was born in a sect around the mountain range, the Taoist took his disciples and left without saying a word.
The Hanshan Sect was forced to migrate, while the Taoist priests migrated on their own initiative.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
So what the old Taoist often instills in his disciples is that, in fact, Wuyi Mountain is the location of our Qingyun Sect, and we are now returning to our ancestral land.
The old Taoist priest called a horse a deer and shamelessly called the former site of Hanshan Gate the former site of Qingyun Gate. As for the plaque of Hanshan Gate, it was thrown into the woodshed and hidden by the old Taoist priest on the first day he went up the mountain.
In order to increase his persuasiveness, the old Taoist also said that there were many opportunities left by the sect’s ancestors on Mount Wuyi. Several disciples did not believe it at first, but after climbing the mountain several times, they found that they could not reach the top. The old Taoist fooled them, saying that it was a restriction set by the ancestors and that they were not strong enough to climb up. The disciples completely believed it.
On the fifth day of the old Taoist's ascent of the mountain, he saw the Taoist temple and the young Taoist priest in the peach blossom forest.
The old Taoist said that they would be neighbors in the future and came to visit, and presented a few pots of ancestral spiritual wine. The dragon snake was so angry that it almost swallowed the old Taoist who was talking nonsense in one gulp.
It's clearly low-quality wine from a tavern at the foot of the mountain. They found a few wine jars, pasted a piece of red paper with "Qingyunmen" written on them, and then dared to claim that it's an ancestral spiritual wine. The ink on the red paper hasn't even dried yet.
The young Taoist priest stopped the dragon snake and said that they would be neighbors in the future so they must get along well with each other, and asked the dragon snake to go to the cellar and get a few jugs of wine.
The old Taoist saw the dragon snake carrying several jars of wine and exclaimed, "Is it snake wine?"
If the young Taoist priest had not pressed down the dragon snake with a flick of his finger, the old Taoist priest would have been eaten by the snake.
The emergence of Qingyun Sect has made Wuyi Mountain more lively.
But this excitement was broken one day.
Qingyun Sect received a notice, which was jointly issued by three major sects with powerful Jindan masters in charge.
Tang Yuan, the leader of Panlong Sect, practices evil skills and sucks the blood of other monks. All monks should kill him together.
It is said that it was Tang Yuan's wife who exposed Tang Yuan herself.
"I tell you, don't even think about looking for that Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan is already in the late stage of foundation building and is only one step away from the golden elixir. Even though the reward is generous, you have to be alive to spend it."
After receiving the notice, the Taoist priest summoned his disciples and issued an order to close the mountain.
"Master, if we find Tang Yuan's whereabouts, we can notify these sects to claim the reward."
"Bullshit, if we really find Tang Yuan's trail, you can still be alive, stay on the mountain, whoever dares to come down the mountain, I will break his legs."
The old Taoist was furious and personally guarded the foot of the mountain.
That night.
The old Taoist was stunned when he saw the figure appearing in front of him.
Bang! The old Taoist hit his head on the boulder at his feet and fainted.
He saw nothing.
The middle-aged man looked at the old Taoist, and the cold aura on his body became less. In the end, he ignored the old Taoist and walked towards the mountain.
After the middle-aged man left, the old Taoist woke up immediately. Seeing the middle-aged man going up the mountain, he felt relieved.
This direction is not the one leading to his Qingyun Sect. This person should just be passing by here.
Peach blossom forest.
Tang Yuan looked at the peach trees and Taoist temple, which had not changed at all since he left, with a hint of fear in his eyes.
I feel nervous when I am close to home.
Taohua Temple on Mount Wuyi is the purest piece of land in his heart. The reason why he dared not come back all these years is that he was afraid of defiling this pure land.
Although he has not been possessed by a demon, he is no longer worthy of Taohua Temple.
"Master, the disciple is back."
Tang Yuan stood respectfully in front of the door. After a while, the door of the Taoist temple opened. The dragon snake was very excited to see Tang Yuan.
"Xiaoyuan is back, good boy, you have grown so old now."
The corner of Tang Yuan's mouth twitched, but after seeing his master, he felt that what Lao Jin said was right, he was old.
The master and Lao Jin are still the same as they were back then, and this peach blossom forest and Taoist temple have never aged.
"Master, I came here to explain to you that I have never absorbed the blood of a cultivator."
The young Taoist nodded to indicate that he knew.
The dragon snake on the side had a look of disdain on its face. The medicinal effect in Xiao Yuan's body had not been fully absorbed yet. Was it necessary for him to suck the blood of the monks? Moreover, from the perspective of his demon clan, it would be fine if he sucked it.
"From now on, you will stay in Wuyi Mountain. No one can do anything to you."
Tang Yuan felt a lump in his throat when he heard the young Taoist priest's words, but then he shook his head: "No, Master, I can't bring you any trouble."
The dragon snake was getting anxious. What trouble was that? With just those sects, he could wipe them all out with just one tail, without the senior having to take action.
"Let me cook you a meal. Master, after all these years, please taste my cooking skills and see if they have deteriorated."
Tang Yuan entered the kitchen. The furnishings inside remained the same as when he left. Even the water in the vat had not dried up at all.
During this meal, Tang Yuan ate silently with the young Taoist priest, and after the meal, he washed the dishes silently.
"Master, I'm leaving."
"Do we have to go?" the young Taoist priest asked in a deep voice.
"Over the years, I have done many wrong things, and some things should be resolved."
Before going up the mountain, Tang Yuan still felt a little indignant. He wanted to know why his wife betrayed and slandered him, and why his subordinates sold him out.
How did he end up being deserted by everyone?
But when he saw his master, he suddenly felt that none of this mattered anymore, as long as his master was there.
And he was going to put an end to it.
"Let Lao Jin go with you."
This was the first time that the young Taoist priest decided to intervene in matters outside Wuyi Mountain, and Lao Jin's face was filled with excitement.
"No, Lao Jin has been with you for so many years, so let him continue to accompany you."
Tang Yuan has now figured out some things.
His master might be more powerful than anyone he knew, because none of the Jindan masters he had seen had an unchanging appearance like his master.
But he didn't want his master to worry about his affairs. It was his own fault that he had come to this point.
"I'll ask Lao Jin to dig a hole for you. He's quite professional. It's just behind this peach forest."
Tang Yuan was stunned, then started laughing.
He could sense the anger in his master's words, but it would also be nice to be buried behind the peach blossom forest.
"Then I'll trouble you, Lao Jin."
Old Jin was listening to the conversation between the master and the disciple and was getting anxious.
I am a fierce dragon and snake beast in the late Jindan stage, and I am not a professional gravedigger, although it was he who dug Zhang Juxian's grave.
