On this day, Taiwei Sect welcomed an unexpected guest.

At that time, Qingyangzi was sitting in his practice room meditating and practicing.

Since accepting Feng Shao as the eldest disciple, almost all the affairs of the sect have been taken care of by Feng Shao, even the teaching of skills is led by Feng Shao. Qing Yangzi and others sit in their rooms peacefully, meditating and practicing, practicing the skills passed down by their ancestors.

So for Qing Yangzi, this kind of day was really a day without any incidents.

Until a disciple came to his door and reported to Qingyangzi that someone claimed to be the master's uncle and asked to enter the mountain gate to meet the master.

When Qing Yangzi learned about this, he was completely stunned. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that he did have such an uncle.

However, in Qingyangzi's impression, this uncle left the mountain gate a long time ago, and it has been about 70 or 80 years now. After so many years, this uncle has never returned to the mountain gate, and no news has been sent. It's as if he has disappeared from the world. It was only today that he remembered that he still had an uncle after being reminded by his disciples!

But why did Master Uncle suddenly come back to the mountain gate?

Qing Yangzi didn't think much about it and directly asked his disciples to receive this uncle in the lobby. After Qing Yangzi got ready and came to the lobby, he saw an old man with untidy beard and ragged clothes sitting on a chair in an extremely indecent posture, drinking leisurely.

Qing Yangzi didn't recognize the man at first glance. He wouldn't rush to call him his uncle just because he said he was his uncle. He had to confirm his identity first. But before he could see the man's face clearly, the old man slammed the table and shouted, "Qing Yangzi, do you admit your guilt?"

Qing Yangzi: “…”

What do you mean? You are just asking me whether I know my crime or not!

Qing Yangzi was angry in his heart, but he said calmly: "My name is Qing Yangzi, may I ask your name, senior?"

The old man looked at Qingyangzi for a while, then suddenly sneered, "Qingyangzi, you are so capable! You don't even recognize your uncle when you see him? Great! My brother really got a good disciple!"

Qing Yangzi said calmly, "I did have an uncle, but he has been missing for many years. Since you said he was my uncle, do you have any proof?"

The old man said with a gloomy face: "Proof? My face is the proof! You are so good, Qingyangzi, do you think that you can ignore your uncle just because you become the head of the sect?"

Qing Yangzi almost wanted to curse. What's wrong with this old man? You say you are my uncle, but you have to show evidence! When my uncle left Taiwei Sect, Qing Yangzi had just become my disciple for a few years, and he was usually focused on cultivation. He had no intersection with this uncle, and only met a few times during festivals. Since the two sides had not seen each other many times, how could they recognize each other at first sight when they met again after seventy or eighty years?

This old man is just being unreasonable!

However, considering that the other party might really be his uncle, Qing Yangzi could only suppress his dissatisfaction and said calmly: "Senior, you don't know that when my uncle left the mountain gate, I was still young and didn't have much impression of him. You naturally claim to be my uncle, so please show your proof, otherwise I will have to ask you to leave our sect."

The old man laughed out of anger, and was about to speak when he heard a voice saying, "Don't worry, uncle-master. After all, the head master hasn't seen you for many years, so it's normal that he doesn't recognize you."

It was not until this time that Qing Yangzi discovered that Ye Chen was actually sitting next to the old man.

At this time, Ye Chen looked like a loving father and a filial son. He was extremely respectful to the old man and spoke politely. However, he called the old man "Master Uncle" right from the start, which made Qingyangzi a little unhappy.

If you want to recognize your relatives, just go ahead and do it yourself, but don’t drag others into this!

But before Qing Yangzi could speak, Ye Chen said to Qing Yangzi: "Master, this old senior is indeed our great uncle. He once used our secret in front of our disciples. It is impossible for anyone other than a member of our sect to use it."

Qing Yangzi glanced at Ye Chen with some displeasure when he heard this. He was not dissatisfied with Ye Chen's blind recognition of his relatives, but with Ye Chen's attitude.

When Qing Yangzi walked into the hall, Ye Chen did not stand up to salute, but sat on the chair with the old man. Not only that, he did not intend to salute when he spoke, as if he was not the head master in front of him, but a person of the same generation.

Qingyangzi couldn't help but think secretly that perhaps the issue of etiquette and upbringing of the three groups of disciples should be taken seriously.

Just as he was thinking, the old man suddenly slammed the table again and shouted at Qing Yangzi, "Qing Yangzi, I asked you if you know your guilt, why don't you answer?"

Qing Yangzi frowned slightly and asked unhappily, "What crime have I committed?"

The old man sneered and said, "You have three crimes. You cannot distinguish between loyalty and treachery, right and wrong, you use public resources for personal gain, and you appoint people based on personal connections. This is crime one. You neglect your duties, you work for nothing, you are lazy and idle, and you have no ambition to make progress. This is crime two. You cannot judge people clearly, you allow young men to take power. This is crime three. Oh, and now I have to add one more: you are disrespectful to your elders. This is crime four! You said you have committed these four major crimes, why don't you know your guilt?"

Qing Yangzi: “…”

Is there something wrong with this old man?

The old man listed four charges right away, but except for the last one which barely made sense, the other three were so confusing that I didn't know where to start.

Qing Yangzi was just wondering what the problem was. When he caught a glimpse of the smug look that Ye Chen inadvertently revealed, he immediately understood.

Could it be that this old man was fooled by this kid Ye Chen?

To be honest, although Ye Chen lost to Feng Shao at the canonization ceremony, Qing Yangzi still thought highly of this disciple. After all, Ye Chen had reached the Xiantian realm in just five years, which was really amazing. He even thought privately that if Ye Chen could defeat Feng Shao in the future, he could be considered as the Holy Son. Even the marriage with Yunjian Pavilion could be transferred to him.

But now, I didn't expect that Ye Chen found an unidentified old man from nowhere and started to ask for accusations aggressively. So what role did Ye Chen play in this matter? What effect did he play? Could it be that this kid coveted the position of the Holy Son and in turn began to covet his position as the head of the sect?

Thinking of this, Qing Yangzi's eyes turned and he said to the old man, "Please forgive my poor eyesight. I really don't recognize you, Senior. Since you said you are a disciple of Taiwei Sect, you must have a disciple token of our sect, right? Please show me your disciple token so that I can confirm your identity."

Qing Yangzi kept calling him "disciple", implying that no matter if you are my uncle or not, I am the head of Taiwei Sect, and you are at most a disciple? What? Elder? Come on, Taiwei Sect has not had an elder position for hundreds of years. The two elders of the Alchemy Pavilion and the Foundry were brought in by Feng Shao from outside!

When that uncle left Taiwei Sect, he was indeed an ordinary disciple, and the token he held was also a disciple token. But if he really took out the disciple token, then even if he proved his identity, Qingyangzi would be the winner.

It has to be said that Qingyangzi's words directly put the old man in a difficult position.

The old man was embarrassed when he heard this, and he hesitated, "It's been so many years, it's just a token, who would still carry it with them? I don't know where I hid it a long time ago."

Qing Yangzi was delighted and said with a smile on his face: "In this case, it is difficult for me to confirm your identity. Although my Taiwei Sect is not a big sect, it is impossible for us to just treat anyone as our senior. Please forgive me."

The old man was furious when he heard this: "Qingyangzi, you dare not acknowledge your uncle in front of you? What did your master teach you? Have you forgotten the order of hierarchy in our sect?"

Qing Yangzi replied calmly: "The hierarchy of our sect is orderly, and I always keep it in mind. But your identity is unknown, and I have no evidence to prove my identity, so I can only call you senior!"

Old man: “…”

I was careless! I shouldn't have used the token to exchange for wine!
