Chapter 142: All the old people have left
"What?" Dong Huaqing looked at Ning Ruoxi in disbelief. There was no need for Ning Ruoxi to lie to him. It didn't make any sense.
"Sect Master, what's going on with you? Elder Leng said that you died in the Tianxuan Mountains, and then the Sixth Elder became the Sect Master..."
Ning Ruoxi wanted to know who this old man was. Did you just hear Dong Huaqing call that old man "ancestor"?
"Alas... What a sin!" Dong Huaqing smiled bitterly, and his voice seemed to have traveled through time and returned to the past.
"My Xiandao Sect has an ancestral precept that there is an opportunity to become an immortal in the Tianxuan Mountains. When the sect master's life is about to end, he can enter the Tianxuan Mountains to explore. At that time, I was blinded by the word 'becoming an immortal' and entered the Tianxuan Mountains several times."
"I finally found the entrance to the secret realm, but I encountered a pterosaur. At that time, the pterosaur didn't recognize me and wanted to kill me, but it was just teasing me like a cat catching a mouse!"
"Elder Leng was the previous sect leader before me. He had warned me many times not to venture into the depths of the Tianxuan Mountains easily..."
"Just when the demon pterosaur was about to kill me, the ancestor arrived in time and recognized the mental method I was practicing, so he saved me."
After Dong Huaqing's explanation, Ning Ruoxi also understood some things.
The old man was the first generation leader of the Xiandao Sect, named Su Jianbai. He did not ascend to the immortal world as rumored.
After Dong Huaqing survived, Su Jianbai did not let him leave. Instead, he kept him by his side and taught him how to practice.
"Master, why didn't the ancestor let you leave here?" Ning Ruoxi asked Dong Huaqing.
"The ancestor thought that the Xiandao Sect would be safe without me for a while, so he wanted me to practice to the Tribulation Crossing Stage before leaving the secret realm. However, I am dull and it took me more than two hundred years to practice to the late Mahayana Stage." Dong Huaqing explained.
Ning Ruoxi understood, "Sect Master, I think you still need to leave here and return to Xiandao Sect. Xiandao Sect is not in a good situation right now..."
Ning Ruoxi briefly told Dong Huaqing about the predicament of Xiandao Sect. Dong Huaqing was indignant, "How dare the Hengli Sect set their sights on our Xiandao Sect? When I leave the secret realm, I will make sure they are in trouble."
"Junior Brother Luo and your uncles are really dead?" Dong Huaqing thought of this and still did not dare to confirm with Ning Ruoxi.
"Yes." Ning Ruoxi nodded and said, "Jiang Xi killed them all. If you don't believe it, you can go back to Xiandao Sect and ask the people at Wanling Peak."
Dong Huaqing knew that Shangguan Jun had a bad attitude towards Ning Ruoxi. Shangguan Jun had always been close to Jiang Xi. If Shangguan Jun told Dong Huaqing whether it was Jiang Xi who did it, it would be absolutely credible.
"No, I want to find the ancestor, I want to go back to the Xiandao Sect!" Dong Huaqing really couldn't sit still, and immediately flew towards the place where Su Jianbai was practicing.
Ning Ruoxi followed closely and came to Su Jianbai.
"Ancestor!" Dong Huaqing saluted to Su Jianbai.
Su Jianbai opened his eyes unhappily, "Why are you here again?"
"Ancestor, I want to leave here and return to Xiandao Sect!" Dong Huaqing told Su Jianbai everything that happened in Xiandao Sect.
When Su Jianbai's eyes swept over Ning Ruoxi, she felt as if she was being stared at by a ferocious beast. She hadn't felt this way for a long time.
"Did this young man tell you all this? Did everything happen by coincidence?"
Ning Ruoxi stepped forward and saluted, "Grandmaster, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, we can go to Xiandao Sect together to verify the situation."
Su Jianbai didn't say anything, and no emotion could be seen on his face. As expected of an old monster who had lived for many years, he still kept his composure.
Dong Huaqing urged anxiously, "Grandmaster..."
"Forget it! You guys go back! After you stabilize the situation in Xiandao Sect, come back here. I, the ancestor, have prepared a great opportunity for you."
"Thank you, Ancestor!" Dong Huaqing didn't care what the great opportunity Su Jianbai was talking about. All his thoughts were focused on the Xiandao Sect.
Dong Huaqing said to Ning Ruoxi: "Come with me, I know where the exit of the secret realm is."
The two rushed towards the exit of the secret realm. Su Jianbai looked at the two figures gradually going away, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Yao Yi, follow that young man."
A black shadow passed across the starry sky, and Su Jianbai closed his eyes again, like an old monk in meditation.
Ning Ruoxi followed Dong Huaqing and used her spiritual sense to memorize the general terrain of the secret realm, so that she wouldn't have to wander around aimlessly the next time she entered here.
The two flew out of the lake, and Ning Ruoxi led Dong Huaqing forward. A lot of changes had taken place in the past two hundred years, and Dong Huaqing also felt a little unfamiliar with the Tianxuan Mountains.
…….
In the Xiandao Sect’s gate square.
Hua Jianyue and Nan Chengwen were busy recruiting new disciples. Previously, because the three major sects joined forces to attack the sect, many disciples and elders fled, and Hua Jianyue drove all these people out of the Xiandao Sect.
The Xiandao Sect needs a new batch of fresh blood.
"Brother, don't worry. This group of disciples was selected by Wang Lin himself. They have absolutely clean backgrounds. They are either orphans or have lost both parents!" Nan Chengwen and Hua Jianyue guaranteed that as long as these disciples were trained well, they would definitely be loyal to the Xiandao Sect.
"Okay!" Hanami Yuetsu's face was filled with worry. The overall strength of the Xiandao Sect was too weak now. The top was not outstanding, and the bottom was not solid either. There were numerous problems.
"Boss, second in command..." A familiar voice sounded in the ears of Nan Chengwen and Hua Jianyue.
They were both startled. This voice sounded like a dream to them...
Dong Huaqing and Ning Ruoxi landed in front of Hua Jianyue and Nan Chengwen. Hua Jianyue and Nan Chengwen widened their eyes, "Master!!"
"Boss, second brother, I'm back..." Dong Huaqing looked at his two disciples with a complicated expression. He could see that they had changed a lot. They became more calm and reserved, less high-spirited and rebellious than before.
"Master!" Hua Jianyue and Nan Chengwen knelt in front of Dong Huaqing. Dong Huaqing stepped forward and supported them. "You don't need to say sorry. It's all Master's fault for being selfish and being blinded by the immortality."
"Junior Sister Ning, is this really our Master?" Nan Chengwen still couldn't believe it and asked Ning Ruoxi.
Ning Ruoxi replied: "Brother, Uncle Dong is indeed not dead. There is a reason why he cannot return to the sect in these years."
"Yes, I heard from Ning Ruoxi that some sects have bullied us. Today, your master will take you to visit these sects one by one to get back at us. My Xiandao Sect has not yet declined!" Dong Huaqing was also arrogant. When he was the leader of the Xiandao Sect, no sect within a hundred thousand miles dared to speak loudly to him.
The bigger the fist, the more truth it has. Dong Huaqing could never have imagined that so many things would happen in the sect after he left.
The old generation has all left...
