Chapter 19 Coincidence Three Years Later
The news that Qi Qing's talented disciple was found to have mixed spiritual roots quickly spread throughout the Tiandu Sect.
Everyone felt pity at first, then sighed that no one is perfect, and couldn't help but feel relieved to see their own apprentice.
Even though it's not very promising, at least it's not a useless spiritual root that can't be raised.
It's not that there haven't been people with mixed spiritual roots in the world of cultivation, and there's no shortage of masters who want to teach people with mixed spiritual roots to become rare and precious, but they have all failed without exception.
Over time, the monks reached a consensus - mixed spiritual roots are not as powerful as single spiritual roots.
But what no one expected was that Qi Qing's disciples soon made them drop their jaws.
From the beginning of building his foundation, Yue Ji displayed an almost terrifying talent.
The middle stage of foundation building, the foundation building is complete, and the elixir is formed smoothly... The speed along the way is unstoppable and no one can stop it.
Up to the eve of forming his infant, it had only been three years since he first entered the sect.
——A true genius!
Only then did everyone come to their senses. They looked at Yue Ji, then at their own disciples with mediocre talents. They all sighed and lamented that they had missed out on such a brilliant talent.
As a master of a genius, Qi Qing is a low-key person. He has not shown off in the past three years. As a result, even though Tiandu Sect has produced such a genius, it seems that he is hiding it and has not made any name for himself in the current mixed world of cultivation.
Tiandu Sect then began to spread rumors that Senior Brother Qi was a man of integrity, not moved by fame or gain at all, and was a clear-minded person of the time.
Faced with the rumors, Qi Qing could only smile tiredly.
If other people were like him, working part-time or messing around in his shabby little courtyard every day, with the most frequent visits being the spiritual medicine garden and the cafeteria, they would probably think that he had a miserable life.
I thought that after Yue Ji broke through to the Golden Core stage, he would be able to live a more comfortable life with the Golden Core subsidy from the sect.
As expected, children are always money-eating beasts - even if he is Long Aotian.
Over the past few years, Qi Qing had not saved much of the spirit stones he had worked so hard to earn, and had spent them all on Yue Ji.
Food, clothing, housing, transportation, sword forging, cauldron casting, elixirs and talismans...especially the last two items are very expensive. In order to raise a well-rounded Long Aotian, Qi Qing chose to endure.
Once again, after helping out in the spiritual medicine garden, the young man watered the flowers while starting a live broadcast with ease.
[It's on air now? I'm going to start making pills. 】
[Why is there only one anchor? Will you come back for dinner today? 】
Qi Qing took a quick look and said casually, "I don't know."
This morning, before he got up, Yue Ji was called to the main peak by the sect leader. He was acting mysterious and no one knew what he was going to do.
[He's at the door. By the way, the anchor poured half a spoonful of water too much.]
Qi Qing paused, and just as he was about to turn around, he heard a low, hoarse voice unique to those in the voice change period coming from the door.
"Master, I'm back."
He looked back and saw Yue Ji standing quietly in front of the courtyard gate, with half of his shoulder coated with the soft sunset.
The young man was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, with a thin body. His slightly long hair was tied up high behind his head with a red rope, and his sleeves were tied tightly. His handsome face had a half smile on it as he looked at him intently.
This scene made Qi Qing strangely feel a sense of relief that "my son has grown up".
He threw away the kettle and wiped his hands: "Master didn't invite you to dinner?"
Yue Ji stepped into the yard, picked up the kettle and helped him water the flowers, his tone a little helpless: "Master, have you forgotten? Lingxiao Mountain has long been practicing fasting. Even if you keep me here, there is nothing I can eat."
He poured the water quickly, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the kitchen: "Master, what would you like to eat tonight? Let me make it."
[Report, fried sashimi! ]
【Then I want to eat the Imperial Yellow Queen Mother Rice. 】
【I didn’t ask you.】
"No need, I'll do it!" Qi Qing pushed him aside and rushed into the kitchen first.
The young man raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Qi Qing without saying anything. After a few seconds, when Qi Qing thought he was safe, he suddenly raised his hand and a shovel appeared.
"etc--"
Qi Qingxin's mouth was raised to the ground, and she rushed out with wet hands in embarrassment, but she failed to stop him. She could only watch him shovel quickly towards the place where he had just stood, and shoveled out a small jar of wine in a few strokes.
"Master," Yue Ji lifted the wine jar and weighed it, then sighed slowly, "Hidden again? How many times has this happened?"
[Oops, I was discovered. How long have you been hiding this time? ]
【Less than a day.】
[Break the record again, congratulations to the host~]
What is there to congratulate?
Qi Qing secretly sneered at the barrage and said angrily, "It's just one jar. I'm tired after a day. What's wrong with drinking a little?"
He was just drunk and couldn't control his ice spirit root. Yue Ji is still here, so what serious consequences could there be?
"I have confiscated it." Yue Ji picked it up and walked away without mercy: "Put away the preserved fruits in the house first, and eat them tomorrow."
Seeing that he was acting so arrogant, Qi Qing secretly made a hand gesture and planned to quietly cast a tracking spell on the wine jar.
The next second, the boy raised his finger and stopped the spell flying in the air.
"Master."
He hesitated, shook his head and said, "...Forget it, you will be unhappy if I tell you later."
Qi Qing felt that he was looked down upon.
He said bitterly: "Okay, okay, you will be the master! You can do it!"
The young man put down his work in the kitchen, went back to his room, crawled into his bed, and planned to sleep till he got up.
After a while, a whiff of meaty aroma wafted into the house.
Qi Qing took a few puffs, turned over, and decided to out of sight, out of mind.
The young man walked into the house quickly: "It's time for dinner."
"I can't hear it." Qi Qing covered his ears.
A pair of hands reached into the bed curtains and gently pulled him aside: "Master, don't be angry. The master summoned me today because he wanted me to report something to you."
"What's the matter?" Qi Qing forced his eyes open and glanced at him sideways.
"Get up and talk."
Without waiting for Qi Qing to refuse, Yue Ji took the initiative to put his coat on him, put his hand between his shoulder and the pillow, and gently pried him up.
Qi Qing reluctantly sat up halfway and listened to him ask, "Master, have you ever heard of Xiwuzhou?"
Xiwuzhou?
Qi Qing was shocked and immediately asked, "Where did you hear about Xiwuzhou? Did the Sect Master tell you?"
Yue Ji stared into his eyes and said, "Yes, what's wrong with that?"
The young man frowned, thinking that this was not only inappropriate, but also a terrible coincidence.
According to the original plot, Yue Ji experienced ups and downs in the Tiandu Sect for several years, broke through the Golden Core, defeated his senior brother, and went to Xiwuzhou alone at the age of fourteen.
——The Yue Ji in front of him was exactly fourteen years old, not one year off.
The young man noticed that Qi Qing seemed to have something to say, so he asked, "Master, don't you want me to go?"
"…It's not that I don't want to." Qi Qing sighed, not knowing how to start, so he could only ask back: "What is the purpose of the master mentioning Xiwuzhou? Did he tell you?"
Yue Ji said, "Master, I heard that Xiwuzhou will soon hold the alchemy conference that takes place once every ten years. Alchemists from all over the world will gather together. There will be dragon blood grass and Taixu Qinglian as prizes at the conference. If I can obtain these two and refine them into a soul-eliminating elixir, it will cleanse my meridians and marrow, allowing me to rebuild my spiritual roots."
[Taixu Qinglian? Why didn't you tell me earlier? There are a lot of them in the pond in my backyard. ]
[Wake up, you are in the upper realm, and the host is in the human realm, can you send him there? ]
[It is better to use less external things. Although your disciple has mixed spiritual roots, he may still be able to attain the Tao. ]
Qi Qing also understood the logic behind the barrage.
He sat up straight and said sternly, "Yue Ji, do you really want to wash away your current cultivation in exchange for the opportunity to reshape your spiritual roots?"
Yue Ji was a little hesitant when he heard this. He was silent for a long time before he said softly, "I want to try."
"But your mixed spiritual roots are not..."
Qi Qing was halfway through his words when he saw the young man lower his eyes, a hint of stubbornness emerging in his expression.
Yes, after all, it is the proudest age for young people. Although they don’t say it, they must have been disappointed in their hearts about having mixed spiritual roots.
Even if I don't allow him to go, he will definitely find a chance to sneak away.
Thinking of this, Qi Qing changed his tone and said softly, "In this case, how about Master accompany you to take a look?"
Yue Ji raised his head, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He suddenly threw himself into Qi Qing's arms and said happily, "Yes, thank you, Master!"
