"Disciple... you have worked hard during this period of time!"

"I have been taking care of Mengli for such a long time, and her cultivation has not fallen behind. I am very satisfied with your performance."

Ye Qiu said sincerely.

Indeed, Zhao Wan'er has contributed a lot to the Zixia lineage.

She could have ascended long ago, but she was worried about Mengli being alone in the lower realm, so she chose to stay.

Compared with other disciples, Ye Qiu felt indebted to her because she was the one who spent the least time with Ye Qiu.

He is also the one with the least amount of coaching time from Ye Qiu, and he is almost always left alone.

Ye Qiu felt a little guilty.

"Master, Wan'er is not suffering. This is what I should do. Besides... compared to the disputes here, I prefer the tranquility of the lower world."

Zhao Wan'er told the truth. She was quite open-minded and didn't have the slightest intention of blaming her master.

Not only that, in her heart, Master is the person she admires the most in her life and the person she should be most grateful to.

If the master had not disdained her and brought her back to the mountain, I am afraid her fate would have been to be used as a tool for marriage with the allied country.

She was very grateful. Besides, her master had never treated her unfairly in terms of cultivation resources. What was there for her to be dissatisfied about?

Looking at her sincere eyes, Ye Qiu nodded, feeling very relieved.

Alas, there is nothing I can do!

Our disciples are such sensible and caring little cotton-padded jackets.

He was so relieved that he almost never got into trouble. Even when he was not at home, he could still maintain the mountain gate well.

"alright!"

"I called you here today because I have something to arrange."

After chatting, Ye Qiu started to talk about business.

As early as after the end of the Sky-Repairing Event, Ye Qiu had planned to leave the Divine Mountain and head to the Ancient Immortal Battlefield.

It’s just that I haven’t seen my beloved disciple for a long time, so I stayed for a while longer.

After all, he himself didn't know how long it would take him to come back, and maybe he would never come back.

Therefore, things that need to be explained should be explained clearly.

"Qingzhu! Your master will soon go to the ancient battlefield to look for your master's wife. After I leave, you will be in charge of the Zixia Dojo."

"I have already informed Elder Gu. Now, you are the actual controller of Zixia Dojo. This is not the first time you have taken on such an important task. I believe you have some experience."

"At present, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are relatively peaceful. As long as you don't leave the Divine Mountain, there will be no danger. If you really encounter something you can't solve, you can take your master's token and go to the Star Picking Tower to seek help. The elders will help you."

Hearing this, Lin Qingzhu's face instantly became heavy, and Zhao Wan'er felt even more lost.

I didn't expect that after finally meeting my master, not long after, he was leaving again.

It seemed that no matter how hard she tried, she could not catch up with her master, which made her very frustrated.

"Yes, Master! I will remember this."

Lin Qingzhu was relatively calm. As her cultivation level improved, her character and knowledge gradually grew, and her mentality also changed.

She knew that her master had always been paving the way for them, and from the moment she left the lower world, she had understood that they were destined to be apart more often than together in the days ahead.

In the life of cultivating immortals, the years roll by, and hundreds and thousands of years pass in the blink of an eye. Compared with these, the days when they are together are actually quite good.

Moreover, Lin Qingzhu knew in his heart that this world could not restrain his master, and he would definitely go to a wider world to create his own legend.

"Now that the great elder has left, it will not be long before the world changes drastically. I do not want you to get involved, but who among all living things in the heavens can escape this calamity?"

"Suffering is also a part of cultivation. Going through some hardships is also of great help to your own cultivation, so I will not force you to hide in the mountains forever."

"But remember, no matter what happens, your first priority is to protect your own safety, understand?"

Ye Qiu gave these instructions earnestly.

Lin Qingzhu took the lead and responded in unison: "Understood."

"call……"

Looking at the four beloved disciples in front of him, Ye Qiu was still somewhat worried, but he thought to himself that they were all very sensible and grown up, and he could not protect them all their lives.

Before leaving, Ye Qiu reminded them of many things and also explained the future development direction of Zixia Dojo.

Among them, he specifically told Lin Qingzhu that if he was interested in taking in a disciple, the young man named Zhang Shanfeng was very good and he could be considered.

Ever since the Bu Tian event ended, Zhang Shanfeng had always wanted to become Ye Qiu's disciple. In order to repay Ye Qiu's kindness, he was willing to become an outer disciple.

You know, he is a genius who has broken historical records many times at the event. All the major mountain ranges have already extended olive branches to him, and his treatment is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Even Taoist Tianfeng came out in person, but no one expected that he would refuse them all and firmly choose the Zixia Taoist school.

However, Ye Qiu had no intention of accepting disciples, so he could only enter the forbidden area and enjoy the excellent treatment from the mountain gate, which was not too bad.

In addition to this matter, there is another matter, which is about the new generation of disciples of the Butian Sect, Qi Hao and Liu Qingfeng who had just ascended to heaven, and Mingyue’s beloved disciple, Liu Ruyan.

Since Qi Wuhui was from the Cangjian lineage, he took over his own son Qi Hao.

The Liu siblings originally wanted to seek refuge with Mingyue, after all, Mingyue was Liu Ruyan's master, but Mingyue was no longer on the mountain at this moment.

Liu Qingfeng is nominally a disciple of Meng Tianzheng, but he is just a clone of Meng Tianzheng. He is not recognized in the Taoist tradition and naturally has no affiliation.

Ye Qiu had no choice but to bring them over to avoid having them assigned to the outer gate and starting from there.

Ye Qiu had seen the harsh conditions of the outer sect, and they were unfamiliar with the place and could easily be bullied.

"Uncle Master..."

In a small courtyard outside the mountain, Liu Qingfeng and Liu Ruyan were meditating and practicing. Ye Qiu passed by and they both quickly stood up and saluted.

Ye Qiu nodded and said, "Qingfeng, it's been a while since you ascended. Are you used to it?"

"Hehe, Uncle Master, the immortal energy in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths is too strong. There are famous mountains and fairylands everywhere, and there are blessed caves and paradises. How can I not get used to it?"

Liu Qingfeng responded with a smile.

"Haha, you'll get used to it."

Ye Qiu smiled slightly, then looked at Liu Ruyan and said, "Ruyan, you came at a very unfortunate time. Your master has already left the sacred mountain. For now, you should practice well in Zixia Mountain. It happens that you have several junior sisters and your brother with you, so you won't be lonely."

Liu Ruyan's eyes were a little lost. In order to see her master, she practiced very hard and finally ascended to the upper realm.

But unexpectedly, when she came here in ecstasy, Ye Qiu suddenly told her that her master had left.

She hadn't seen her master for many years and missed him terribly.

"Thank you, uncle."

Liu Ruyan said in a low voice that she just wanted to see her master, but she also understood.

The master at this moment was no longer the familiar master in her memory.

Moreover, she also learned one thing, that is... her master was actually the most stunning woman in the entire nine heavens and ten earths. She was a legendary existence who surpassed everyone of her generation.

When she first heard the news, she was shocked for a long time, but her heart was filled with ecstasy, pride and joy.
