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 hesitation:
"Old Ancestor, you can see clearly that Elder Tianxuan is plotting something and attacking his fellow disciples. This is a betrayal of the sect. Please give us your instructions, Old Ancestor!"
A faint sigh came from the air.
"I've been in seclusion for nearly a hundred years, and now even evil demons and heretics 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 motives were impure when he first 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 about a devastating disaster to the Seven Star Palace!
"But..." the Third Elder suddenly said, "After being selected, all elders enter the formation to examine their consciences before taking office! If Elder Tianxuan had ulterior motives from the beginning, why didn't the Conscience Examination Formation detect them?"
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 the failure of the Heart-Searching Formation.
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 his eyes were cold and murderous, and he was intimidating without even being angry.
The elders looked at each other again, their expressions somewhat subtle.
The Great Elder coughed twice, stepped forward and said with a stiff upper lip:
"This... I think this is Miss Yun's husband, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent of Daliang?"
Xiao Changheng didn't know the whole story, but seeing that the old man was being polite, he nodded slightly in return.
"That's me."
After receiving his approval, the Great Elder and the others became increasingly embarrassed. After all, this man had been abducted by traitors from the Seven Stars Hall, and with such a huge mess going on before, they really didn't know how to end this.
Xiao Changheng naturally 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 Star Palace's Heart-Searching Formation has flaws? You know, this formation has been used for thousands of years and has never failed!"
The one who spoke was the fourth elder Tian Quan. He was outspoken and impatient. Ever since Yun Qingqing said that, he had been feeling unhappy and had been wanting to ask something. But 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 streamlined, 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 not the Inquiry Formation."
"The greatly simplified Conscience Formation has similar effects, but it only appears to limit the number of people who can enter the formation at once to one person. In essence, its weight level has been greatly reduced."
"For ordinary practitioners, there really is no difference. The effect of questioning one's heart is the same. But the problem lies in the support behind the Second Elder..."
Yun Qingqing frowned and thought for a moment before she said carefully:
"Even now I can't figure out what his backer is, which means it's of great significance. Using this method to block a Heart-Searching Formation that has been greatly reduced in power shouldn't be a difficult task."
Listening to her serious explanation, several elders began to exchange glances again.
The Great Elder looked unhappy, and he couldn't help but 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 towards 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 old man's tone was a bit stiff?
Could it be that the old man had just cast a fortune and still couldn't figure it out...
"Girl," the old voice in the air continued, "You should already know that the Qimen Dunjia of the Seven Stars Hall has been strictly forbidden to outsiders since ancient times. Anyone who is not a direct disciple and secretly learns the Qimen Dunjia without permission will be severely punished and expelled from the sect. Even direct disciples and elders will never allow this unique skill to be passed on to outsiders."
"If a disciple who knows Qimen Dunjia wants to leave the sect, he can take everything else he has learned with him down the mountain, but Qimen Dunjia is an exception. 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're saying, I mean if I want to go down the mountain today, I have to destroy my Qimen Dunjia 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. However, it's true that you've learned the secrets of the Seven Star Palace. Since 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 deep breath in unison.
They roughly understood what the ancestor meant, 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 comes true, then this little girl will be much older than them, which is 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 own ancestor who has lived for who knows how many years!
However, Yun Qingqing's expression was somewhat complicated.
She was silent for a moment before she spoke calmly:
"I can't possibly accept you as my master. You can't stop me if I want to leave. Today's incident was originally instigated by the traitors from your Seven Stars Hall. Since you have passed down the Qi Men Dun Jia to this day, I will not pursue it 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.
