Chapter 293: The Monkey Shows Its Power in the Hidden Tiger Mountain
It was said that it was Master Zhao Ming who was leading the elders in recruiting disciples and protecting the Dharma, but in reality, Qingwei Peak was excluded. The head of the Yuanqing Sect spoke like a grain of rice. What was going on? Was she, Elder Fu Cang, going to be killed?
But it doesn't matter. After all, the entire Yuanqing Sect belongs to me now, and now is the time for me to act like the leader.
"Guanxu, go! Take down the painting of living clouds in Guangyang Palace for me!" Lingxiang was hanging on the armchair in the conference hall, eating pine seeds and giving incomprehensible orders in a haughty manner.
"But that is Uncle Donghui's favorite painting. It might not be appropriate to do this..." Guanxu hesitated and refused to retreat.
Lingxiang frowned when she heard that, smacked her lips, and looked displeased.
"I am your Master-in-Law now, so naturally you must obey me in everything. If I say to pick, then you pick."
I'd long since disliked that picture. The saying goes, "When the water runs out, clouds rise." It sounds so unlucky that the water has run out and has nowhere else to go. Perhaps that wasn't what Mo Jie meant, but Lingxiang insisted.
"Pick it! It makes me upset just looking at it!" Lingxiang waved her hands impatiently.
Upon hearing this, Guanxu exchanged a glance with his fellow disciples, and all they could get was a helpless shake of their heads. Helpless as they were, they had no choice but to obey the order - but they had to keep the map safe, so that they could explain it to their uncle Donghui when he came out of retreat.
Seeing Guanxu walk out with a sad face, Lingxiang felt very happy.
Is being the headmaster so satisfying? No wonder Senior Brother Shangqing is clinging to the position of headmaster so tightly. Hey! Now that Yuanqing has been handed over to me, I must build it up properly!
"That one!" Lingxiang raised her finger and pointed at a disciple sitting at the last seat.
The disciple was startled when he heard this. He lowered his head and looked at Lingxiang cautiously. He also pointed at himself for confirmation and tried to struggle.
"Oh, yes, yes, it's you, come out!" Lingxiang raised her index finger and said with sharp eyes, as if the other meaning was "Don't hide! You can't escape today!"
Seeing this, the disciple looked dejected and got up from the mat very reluctantly.
"Disciple Han Yao, listen carefully to Elder Fu Cang's instructions."
Ah~ It’s a disciple of the Han generation.
"Tsk tsk tsk!" Lingxiang smacked her lips again, with a half-smile on her face.
You're such a good old man, Shangqing. I can't do anything to you, but I can't control your disciples either. You're in seclusion now anyway. If you don't use your power, it will expire.
"Go! Paint the jade table on the Wangxian Terrace with gold paint."
What? Farming gold?
Those who practice cultivation often follow the Way of Jade. Jade represents a gentleman, concentrating the mind and nourishing the spirit. So what does it matter if it's coated with gold lacquer? Besides, where would he get the gold lacquer?
"This... I'm afraid it's not appropriate..." Han Yao bowed and replied, "If it's painted with gold lacquer, it will fall into the cliché and lose the immortal way."
"What do you know!" Lingxiang glanced at Hanyang, "Gold and jade complement each other, and you will be rich and powerful. In the future, the sect will surely prosper. This is an auspicious sign, why don't you go quickly?"
"But...where can I find the gold lacquer?"
"If I knew, why would I ask you to do it?" Lingxiang waved her hand as if it was a matter of course, signaling Han Yao to do it quickly.
Seeing this, Han Yao had no choice but to obey the order. With a look of bitterness and hatred on his face, he reluctantly walked out of the conference hall.
If the master knew about this, he would definitely skin him alive. What should I do?
At this time, Lingxiang had a smug look on her face. When she thought of her senior brother, who was always serious and composed, being so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring after coming out of seclusion, she felt secretly happy.
The feeling of being the boss is really great!
Just as Lingxiang was indulging in power and feeling smug, she saw a man rushing in from outside the palace, shouting, "Oh no! Oh no! A fight has broken out in Youyuan Palace!"
The person who came was Yun Lai, the seventh disciple of Master Zhao Ming. He was supposed to lead the disciples of the Supreme Sect in meditating in the Youyuan Hall for the morning class, but now he was in a panic, and his clothes were very messy.
Upon seeing this, Lingxiang immediately sat up straight, looking mature and steady. After Yunlai entered the hall, she imitated Master Qianyuan and shouted to stop him.
"You've already entered the Dao sect, so why are you so flustered? We have outsiders here right now. If someone sees us, won't they say that our Yuanqing sect doesn't know how to teach people?"
After she finished speaking, Lingxiang took a moment to reflect on her words. She felt that her performance was quite good and kept praising herself for having the talent to be the head of the family.
Hearing Lingxiang's scolding, Yunlai quickly bowed, but his face still looked anxious.
"Reporting to Master, the disciples of the Supreme Sect have started a fight with our fellow disciples of the Yuanqing Sect in Youyuan Hall. Master, please go and stop them quickly."
What? Is this a serious bullying?
Lingxiang slammed the table and stood up immediately. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered that she was now the head of the Yuanqing Sect. How could she be so impatient? She had to maintain her dignity.
Oh, damn her vanity!
Lingxiang cleared her throat to ease the embarrassment, then sat down again.
"Do you know what caused the dispute?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Lai immediately explained the whole story.
Youyuan Palace was originally the residence of a group of disciples. There were not many disciples of the Taishang Sect, except for a few who served as guardians outside the Wuji Palace, so they were not accommodated separately and were all arranged here.
Someone heard about the relationship between Tai Shang Sect and Yuan Qing Sect, and the disciples of Tai Shang Sect boasted that they were a generation higher than the disciples of Yuan Qing Sect. They insisted on sitting in the left hall during morning classes, which made the Yuan Qing disciples unhappy.
But after all, visitors are guests, and my fellow disciples also understood this principle, so they did not argue too much and gave way. But who knew that those disciples of the Supreme Sect would go even further, arrogant and bossing the disciples of the Yuanqing Sect around, which made the disciples of the Yuanqing Sect angry.
At first, the two sides just exchanged a few words, but later it turned into a quarrel. Although no one had fought at that time, who knows where a small stone flew out from nowhere and hit the head of the disciple of the Supreme Sect. This hit was not a big deal, and the two sides immediately started fighting.
"I also had to work very hard to squeeze out of that group of people, and then I came to report to Master." Yun Lai looked aggrieved.
He really feels wronged.
My master finally entrusted me with a task, but I messed it up. How can I explain to my master and my uncles and aunts when the time comes?
After hearing what Yunlai said, several disciples who were helping Director Lingxiang in the hall immediately became angry.
"How can this be absurd! How can someone bully you on your own territory?"
In contrast, Lingxiang was very calm, sitting in a chair and thinking.
It was just a quarrel, but suddenly a stone flew out? Why did she feel that there was no one else involved except that person?
Really! They all give her a lot of worry!
"Have you invited people from the Supreme Sect?" Lingxiang asked in a deep voice.
"They've gone, they've gone. A disciple from the Supreme Sect has already gone to the Wuji Palace to invite them."
"Today's tasks have been assigned. Each of you should perform your duties and do whatever is required of you." Lingxiang stood up and gave instructions. Then she said to Yunlai, "Since the Supreme Sect has invited the person in charge, how can our Yuanqing Sect be at a disadvantage?"
"Lead the way, I need to go meet these disciples of the Supreme Sect."
