Chapter 101 Scandal (4,000 words)
"It's you!"
Just as everyone was watching and marveling at the fact that Liu Dudou was a rare immortal seedling.
A female Taoist priest walked up to Zhang Ling, and the person who spoke was Qingxuan.
Her appearance at this moment was even more charming than when Zhang Ling saw her in the corridor that night.
She is dressed in a black Taoist robe, with delicate facial features and elegant makeup. A mahogany hairpin binds her hair up, making it stand tall like a butterfly, showing her dignity and elegance.
"I have to thank you for helping Nanyuan and Beige resolve their misunderstanding. It can be considered fate."
A light and elegant fragrance wafted out. Qingxuan raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhang Ling looked at the other person and said, "That day was indeed a misunderstanding. I am not a disciple of the Five Thunder Sword Temple! I wonder if you have explained the whole story to Nanyuan?"
Qingxuan chuckled, "Since it's just a beautiful misunderstanding, let's not ruin the scenery it was meant to be. South Garden and North Pavilion have reconciled, and you should be credited with the primary credit. What does it matter what the circumstances were? At least the outcome is good."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ling shook his head and said nothing.
"I'm your uncle, so why are you so cold towards me? It's not like the courtesy a disciple of Nanyuan should have."
"I have never been a disciple of Nanyuan. This is all a misunderstanding. You know it very well, so why ask again?"
Zhang Ling and Qingxuan were talking quietly to each other, which attracted some people's attention. Qingxuan smiled, but he also covered his mouth, looking shy and awkward.
"Look! Look! Master Qingxuan is actually smiling!"
"Oh my god, what on earth did Zhang Ling say? Why is Master Qingxuan acting like this?"
Soon, a group of three or five people gathered together to discuss the matter, and they became increasingly confused.
Disciples from Xuanyuan and Diyuan also looked over with suspicion.
Uncle Qingxuan lived alone all his life and had never been in a relationship. He was always very serious, with an expressionless and extremely cold face. There was even a time when a few male disciples saw Uncle Qingxuan leading the Beige team down the mountain for training, and they were all driven away by Fochen.
What kind of magic potion did Zhang Ling give to Master Qingxuan that could make him as shy as a young girl and his heart flutter?
Zhang Ling noticed the subtle gazes from the crowd and said, "Do you know if there's something wrong with this Five Thunder Sword Technique?"
Qingxuan pondered for a moment and said, "You also know why Xu Beixuan came down the mountain? It seems that the interpretation of the Taoist scriptures that Nanyuan has repeatedly insisted on is indeed a dead end. My Beige is the orthodox one!"
Zhang Ling shook his head and said, "No, whether it's Nanyuan or your Beige, the Five Thunder Sword Techniques they practice are all dead ends. In the end, they all die suddenly. Simply put, they are all unorthodox methods!"
Qingxuan was stunned. How come this sentence was exactly the same as what Xu Beixuan said before he went down the mountain?
The head of Nanyuan had just talked to her about this matter. The tone and manner in which Zhang Ling spoke now were no different from those of Xu Beixuan.
Are they crazy? How dare they question the Five Thunder Swordsmanship that has been passed down for thousands of years?
Zhang Ling saw Qingxuan frowning, looking unhappy, so he said, "There are too many people here. There's a small forest over there. If you want to know the truth, you can come find me. I have a quarter of an hour. If you're late, I won't wait any longer."
——
On that day, five major events occurred in Wulei Sword Temple!
The first major event was that Huang Yuan Liu Dudou was personally accepted as the last disciple by the Sect Leader, and was trained with all his strength, instantly becoming a candidate for the next high-ranking position of the Five Thunder Sword!
The second major event is that the once-in-three-hundred-years Taoist Competition is about to begin, and the location of this competition is exactly at the Five Thunder Sword Temple!
The third major event was that the South Courtyard and the North Pavilion of the Five Thunder Sword Temple had resolved their past grudges and were no longer isolated from each other.
The fourth major event was that Master Qingxuan actually covered his mouth and laughed, and it was suspected that he had an unclear relationship with a Huangyuan disciple named Zhang Ling. Afterwards, he even went into a small woods with the other party and disappeared. The headmaster and the elders actually acquiesced to this matter without saying a word.
The fifth major event is that the chief disciple Xu Beixuan went down the mountain alone. The specific circumstances are unclear and it is suspected that he will not participate in the World Taoist Competition in a year!
These five things in total made the Five Thunder Sword Temple instantly become extremely lively.
…
Five Thunder Sword Temple, Five Thunder Hall.
In front of the statue of Wu Lei Zhenren.
Liu Dudou knelt on the ground, with the headmaster and several other elders standing in front of him.
The headmaster lit incense and respectfully said to the Grandmaster, "Grandmaster Wu Lei, your disciple Liu Dudou has now become the 66th Grandmaster's last disciple... I must encourage you to strengthen our Five Thunder Sword School and carry it forward."
Liu Dudou also respectfully lit a few incense sticks, and then brought a cup of tea to the headmaster.
So from today on, Liu Dudou officially became the closed disciple of the head of the Five Thunder Sword Temple. From then on, he rose to the status of a true disciple, on par with the chief disciple Xu Beixuan!
Liu Dudou felt like he was dreaming this time. In a blink of an eye, he became the master's closed disciple. Such opportunity and fortune were something he could not even imagine in his dreams at night.
He was originally a cowherd boy in the mountains. By chance, he entered the Five Thunder Sword Temple and became a disciple. His senior brothers always said that he was dull and loved to take useless notes in a book, but he could hardly remember them.
But this is the only way he can think of to practice diligently and hard.
However, after Zhang Ling patted him on the shoulder last time, his Taoism became more open, and he seemed to have become a different person, with a clear understanding of Taoism and a sense of gain in his heart.
This was the secret in Liu Dudou's heart, and he didn't dare tell anyone. He had long guessed that Zhang Ling must not be an ordinary disciple, and the identity behind him must be extraordinary.
