Chapter 369: How about I accept you as my personal disciple?
The elders were all shocked.
Although this voice belittled them as worthless, a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
"Ancestor!"
"The barrier is broken!"
"The Topology Bureau is also... worthy of the ancestors' help!"
Several elders expressed their joy.
The great elder bowed to the sky and immediately complained without any ambiguity:
"Old Ancestor, please see clearly that Elder Tianxuan has some conspiracy and attacked his fellow disciples. He is suspected of betraying the sect. Please give us your instructions, Old Ancestor!"
A faint sigh came from the air.
"I have been in seclusion for nearly a hundred years, and now even evil demons can be accepted into the temple, and they can even become elders. It really is true that each generation is worse than the previous one..."
The Great Elder and others were shocked.
"You mean... Tianxuan's intentions were not pure when he joined? Doesn't that mean..."
"Oh, all the disciples of Tianxuan Hall are his disciples." The voice said indifferently.
Several elders broke out in cold sweat.
The entire Tianxuan Hall, from top to bottom, has ulterior motives!
If this is not discovered in time, there will be endless troubles and it may even bring a devastating disaster to the Seven Star Palace!
"But..." The Third Elder suddenly said, "After all the elders are selected, they will enter the formation to examine their conscience before taking office! If Elder Tianxuan had ulterior motives from the beginning, why couldn't the Conscience Formation identify it?"
This reminded the other elders, and everyone held their breath and listened attentively to the voice.
However, the voice also fell silent, as if the ancestor was unable to explain why the Heart-Searching Formation was ineffective.
At this moment, a cold female voice suddenly sounded:
"Because your heart-searching formation has flaws."
The eyelids of several elders jumped, and they turned around together, and saw Yun Qingqing and a man walking out of the temple gate.
The man was tall and slender, with a jade-carved face and the temperament of a banished immortal, but there was a hint of coldness and murderousness in his eyes, and he was intimidating without even getting angry.
The elders looked at each other again, their expressions somewhat subtle.
The Great Elder coughed twice, stepped forward and said:
"This... I think he is Miss Yun's husband, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent of Daliang?"
Xiao Changheng didn't know the whole story, and seeing that the old man was being polite, he nodded slightly in return:
"That's me."
After getting his approval, the Great Elder and the others became more and more embarrassed. After all, this man was abducted by the traitors of the Seven Stars Hall, and there was such a big mess before, so now they really don't know how to end it.
Xiao Changheng naturally also noticed the strange atmosphere. He turned to look at Yun Qingqing, asking with his eyes what was going on.
Suddenly, someone said in a rough voice:
"Miss Yun, what do you mean by saying that my Seven Stars Hall's Heart-Searching Formation has flaws? You know that this formation has been used for thousands of years and has never made a mistake!"
The one who spoke was the fourth elder Tian Quan. He was outspoken and impatient. He had been feeling unhappy and wanted to ask something ever since Yun Qingqing said that. Now he helped the others out of a predicament.
Everyone's eyes were focused on her.
The Great Elder immediately echoed:
"Yes, Miss Yun, you also know that this Inquiry Formation evolved from the Inquiry Bureau. Although it has been simplified, the core effect remains unchanged. How could there be any flaws?"
Yun Qingqing said calmly:
"If you had used the Inquiry Bureau, the Second Elder's disguise would have been exposed, but the Inquiry Formation will not work."
"The greatly simplified Conscience Formation has similar effects, except that the number of people who can enter the formation at the same time is limited to one person. In essence, its weight level has been greatly reduced."
"For ordinary practitioners, there is really no difference. The effect of asking the heart is the same, but the problem lies in the backer behind the Second Elder..."
Yun Qingqing frowned and thought for a while before she said carefully:
"Even now I can't figure out what his backer is, which means that it has a great origin. It shouldn't be difficult to use some means to block a heart-searching array that has been greatly reduced in weight."
Listening to her serious explanation, several elders began to exchange glances again.
The Great Elder looked unhappy, and inevitably began to feel that the little girl was too arrogant.
What do you mean "even she can't figure it out"? My own ancestors haven't even spoken yet!
As he thought about this, he immediately came up with a plan and bowed to the sky:
"Grandfather, look at the people behind Elder Tianxuan..."
He was interrupted before he could finish his words:
"Let's talk about this later. Let's solve the current problem first."
"...Ah, yes, as you command!"
The Great Elder responded respectfully, but his heart skipped a beat.
Why did he feel that the ancestor's tone was a bit stiff?
Could it be that the old man had just cast a divination and still couldn't figure it out...
"Girl," the old voice in the air said again, "You should have known that the Qimen Dunjia of the Seven Stars Hall has been kept secret since ancient times. If a non-direct disciple secretly learns the Qimen Dunjia without permission, he will be severely punished and expelled from the sect. Even the direct disciples and elders will never allow this unique skill to be passed on to outsiders."
"If a disciple who knows Qi Men Dun Jia wants to leave the sect, he can take everything else he has learned with him. The only exception is Qi Men Dun Jia. He must first give up this skill before he can leave the mountain."
Yun Qingqing said so much and narrowed his eyes slightly:
"From what you said, it seems that if I want to go down the mountain today, I have to give up my Qi Men Dun Jia skills first?"
Xiao Changheng's eyes turned cold, and he took half a step forward calmly, slightly blocking her behind him.
The voice in the air laughed:
"That's not necessarily the case. It's just that you have learned the secrets of the Seven Stars Palace. Since I see that you have good talent and aptitude, I can make an exception and accept you as my personal disciple. Doesn't that solve the problem?"
Several elders took a breath in unison.
They roughly understood what the ancestor meant just now, but they only thought that he wanted Yun Qingqing to join the Seven Stars Hall and become a direct disciple of an elder.
But who knew that the ancestor actually wanted to accept her as a disciple directly!
If this were to come true, then this little girl would be much older than them, which would be a bit difficult to balance.
But since the ancestor had spoken, they did not dare to object and just thought that the little girl was lucky.
No matter how powerful the master behind her is, it can't be stronger than her ancestor who has lived for who knows how many years!
However, Yun Qingqing's expression was somewhat complicated.
She was silent for a moment, then spoke in a calm voice:
"It is impossible for me to accept you as my master. You can't stop me if I want to leave. Today's incident was originally instigated by the traitors of your Seven Stars Hall. Since you have passed down the Qi Men Dun Jia to this day, I will not pursue it any further."
"But if you insist on stopping me from going down the mountain, you can try."
The elders didn't expect that she would be so disrespectful in front of the ancestor, and their faces changed.
