As soon as they entered the door, Yao Lao saw them. He was so imposing and majestic, even more impressive than the prefect! He immediately felt guilty, and he didn't know if he had heard what he had just said...
Fang Qinglin greeted him with a smile: "My son is stupid, I am really sorry for causing you trouble."
Yao Lao: It’s over, it’s over, you must have heard it!
Until dinner time at night, Yao Lao was still feeling uneasy. He saw that the other person's son was kind and intelligent, so he tricked him into becoming his disciple without even asking his parents whether they agreed or not. What should he do now? Will he not allow Ming'er to become his disciple?
So, when Xihe asked him about his son's situation, Yao Lao changed his attitude and praised him highly.
Fang Yuming: What is Master talking about?
Yao Lao's face flushed red, but for the sake of his disciples, he risked everything!
Xihe found it funny, but didn't make things difficult for him. This old man was quite interesting.
Next, they watched their youngest son win the championship and enter the Six Gates with a group of disciples. They also watched their eldest son learn medical skills from the old man. Then they set out again to go to Piaomiao Gate.
Xihe went there to see if the sect was doing well, and also to find out whether Master Jing'an had ever come back.
Everything was as expected. With her, the queen who was once the eldest senior sister, around, Piaomiao Sect had developed very well in recent years. There were many more disciples with excellent qualifications. A women's college was even built at the foot of the mountain, which was full of women.
The headmaster was a female disciple with ordinary features. She gave people a stable and steady feeling, and people were very respectful when they saw her.
Xihe exchanged a few pleasantries with her, let her go and do her own thing, then opened the door to Master Jing'an's bedroom.
The house was kept in very good condition, with no signs of being disturbed.
Xihe couldn't help but sigh. Could it be that the nun had passed away somewhere?
Fang Qinglin patted her hand soothingly: "Don't worry, Master, you are blessed by fate, and nothing will happen to you."
Xihe nodded. This was the only thing he could think of now.
There were many things going on in the court, and they couldn't stay outside for too long. They met with the disciples and then rushed back to the capital... For the next ten years, until she abdicated and the new emperor ascended the throne, there was no news from Master Jing'an.
At that time, Xihe was already over fifty years old, but because he had reached the highest level in cultivation, he looked only thirty.
Fang Qinglin was still as young as a pine tree, having satisfied his desire to be an official, and was happy to travel around the world with her.
Maybe they were too bored to stay in the same place for more than half a year, and they left very quickly, making it difficult for others to find them.
Five years later, they returned from beyond the Great Wall and brought back a woman.
The woman said her surname was Chen and she was the last disciple of Master Jing'an.
According to her, she met Master Jing'an in a deep mountain. Master Jing'an was wearing a Taoist robe and a nun's hat. Her clothes were tattered and she was studying a book of exercises.
At first, Master Jing'an was indifferent to her and ignored everything she said.
She cleaned the cave, did laundry and cooked for the nun, and told her about things happening outside. She said that the empress had ascended the throne and brought them new food, so she would no longer have to go hungry. She also said that a school had been set up in the town, and so on.
She talked about her father and brother who were killed by bandits, how she was almost beaten to death, and how she desperately ran away from her husband's house - Master Jing'an finally paid attention to her and accepted her as a disciple.
Xihe was silent: "Master's father and brother were murdered in his early years, and he killed his enemies with his own hands later."
Chen Xiu'e suddenly understood: "So that's how it is. No wonder my master is willing to accept me as his disciple despite my mediocre talent."
Xihe picked up the secret book that the nun gave to Chen Xiu'e, which was the Taiyin Sutra and the Zhengyang Gongfa, as well as a secret book that was one-third written.
Chen Xiu'e blushed, "Master only allowed me to practice the Taiyin Sutra, saying that the Zhengyang method has flaws. This secret... she hasn't yet grasped it."
Xihe flipped it open and took a look. He couldn't help but admire that Master Jing'an was also a genius in martial arts. She was able to comprehend the true secrets of the immortal family! It was a pity that she was old and didn't have enough time to comprehend.
He couldn't help but sigh again. The nun must have known about Xie Hongling's existence, but in the end she let her go.
Maybe it was just like that year, when her whole family was wiped out and she was the only one left alive.
She put away the secret book and said, "The Piaomiao Gate is ahead. You will stay here from now on."
Chen Xiu'e looked at the mountains in front of her and nodded happily. Ever since she knew that her master was from Piaomiao Sect, she couldn't wait to come!
She ran forward two steps, then remembered something and turned around to ask, "Senior Sister, have you met Her Majesty the Queen?"
Xihe smiled and nodded: "I have seen it."
Chen Xiu'e was pleasantly surprised: "How is your Majesty? Is he doing very well?"
Xihe smiled implicitly: "You will know in the future."
Chen Xiu'e nodded heavily, turned around and jumped towards the mountains in front of her, which was very lively and noisy.
Xihe looked at the man beside her and smiled softly: "Husband, let's go."
Fang Qinglin held her hand tightly, and the two of them walked towards the carriage, their backs matching each other: "Where do you want to go this time?"
"Jiangnan, right? In March, the peach blossoms are blooming."
"good."
