The bells didn't ring much, only three times.
"Only three times!"
On the flying boat, the captain had already put on his sword-wielding official uniform, stood majestically in front, and spoke proudly.
He clasped his hands behind his back and looked extremely proud, but there was still some guilt and nervousness hidden deep in his eyes.
Xu Qing was also asked to change into the sword holder's official uniform, but he didn't pay attention to the sound of the bell at the moment, but lowered his head and looked at his robe.
The official uniform of the sword holder is different from the Taoist robe. The collar is longer and reaches below the ears, and the sleeves are wide and slightly drooping. The whole body is white with a red flame pattern.
This pattern is hidden and not obvious. Only in the sunlight can it appear faintly and permeate most of the official uniforms, including the sleeves and collars, forming a burning fire.
As the wind blew the robes moved, the layers of clothes seemed to be swaying and burning like fire.
There is a robe and cloak behind the back, tied to the collar by a red ribbon, fluttering behind him, rustling in the wind.
In this way, at first glance, this official uniform looks mainly plain, but in fact it contains fire. The overall look is elegant and heroic at the same time, especially when worn on Xu Qing's body, it makes the female disciples in the flying boat look brilliant.
, looking sideways frequently.
Yan Yan's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and he stood beside Xu Qing, with his chest puffed out, looking proud.
"It's only three bells. There won't be any bells when I come back. Erniu, your skin is itchy again." When Xu Qing checked his robe, the voice of the ancestor Xue Lianzi came faintly.
The captain's body trembled, and he turned his head with a flattering expression on his face. His temperament was completely gone at this moment, and he quickly ran to Xue Lianzi, who was walking slowly.
"Disciple pays regards to the ancestor."
Xue Lianzi snorted and walked to Xu Qing's side, with deep appreciation in his eyes.
Xu Qing looked respectful and bent down to greet him.
"Don't listen to your senior brother's nonsense, Ah Qing. According to the etiquette of the human race, the sound of the bell has different meanings. You don't need to pay too much attention to this. You only need to know that the sect's bell can ring at most twenty-one times."
"Why?" the captain asked curiously.
Xue Lianzi ignored him and looked at Xu Qing kindly.
"Aqing, after returning to the sect, you can rest for three months. In three months, you will go on a long journey. When the time comes, Master, I will give you a treasure."
After saying that, without waiting for the captain to speak, Xue Lianzi turned to glare at the captain and scolded him.
"You're not young anymore. Learn from your junior brother and don't mess around all day long. It's okay in the sect. When you go to Fenghai County, I'm afraid that your seal will be broken by a group of people. They won't be able to kill you by then.
You killed yourself."
"Ancestor, let alone Fenghai County, I don't know how I will survive the next disaster..." The captain sighed and looked at the ancestor eagerly.
The ancestor snorted and was about to speak, but at this moment, as the flying boat approached the Eight Sects Alliance, figures flew out from the Eight Sects Alliance and headed straight towards the flying boat.
The arrivals were not just from the Seven Blood Pupils, but people from the eight sects. After all, there were alliance disciples from all eight sects who returned this time.
Although I did not become a sword holder, I went through the trial and broadened my horizons. It was also an extraordinary journey.
However, except for Qixuetong, who was personally greeted by Master Qi, elders from other sects came here.
But the scene was still grand. Among countless congratulations, a grand ceremony was held specifically for Xu Qing and the captain in the Seven Blood Pupils, so soon the group returned to the alliance with the lingering sound of the bell.
Returned to the mountain gate of Qixuetong.
The moment they returned, most of the disciples of Qixuetong were already present, and they all bowed to the sky with great momentum.
Under the envious gazes of countless disciples, the captain was full of energy, especially when he noticed that Master Zixuan did not appear, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, the figure of the leader of the eight sect alliances in the sky also appeared, with a seemingly gentle smile on his face, and the decree was announced.
"Give Xu Qing and Chen Erniu the status of Taoist disciples of the Eight Sects Alliance!"
This is what should be done, after all, he has become a sword holder, and this time the Eight Sects Alliance has also attracted much attention. Among the three sword holders, the Eight Sects Alliance occupies two seats.
This kind of thing has never happened before. In the past, it was only once at most.
Therefore, the gift of Taozi is necessary.
This is human nature, and it is for the Seven Blood Pupils to see, for the Sword Holding Court to see, and for all future sword holders of the sect to see.
It has nothing to do with his position or thoughts. As the leader of the alliance, not many people can see through his thoughts, but he always does things in an even-keeled manner.
So after Daozi's identity was announced, Qixuetong's celebration became more lively, and disciples from other sects also sent congratulatory gifts. The entire banquet lasted for one day.
During this day, the captain was socializing with various parties, enjoying himself and boasting a few times.
"Let me tell you, in Taichu Liyou City, the brilliance of A-Qing and I's minds was unprecedented. The two of us together are more than ten thousand feet!"
Xu Qing heard it from a distance and didn't pay attention. At this moment, Huang Yan was in front of him with a look of emotion on his face.
"Xu Qing, after a few years, you are now a sword bearer."
"Sigh, I'm still not used to Ying Huangzhou. I've already persuaded my senior sister and we plan to leave and go back to Nanhuang Continent. It just so happens that senior sister is also on duty in Nanhuang Continent. We'll see you in Nanhuang Continent later."
Xu Qing had heard Huang Yan say many times before that he didn't like Yinghuangzhou, and it was hard to persuade him now. He nodded, and under Huang Yan's questioning, he told him about Sanling Town Daoshan.
Huang Yan seemed to be somewhat interested in this.
Time passed slowly, dusk gradually came, and the banquet was coming to an end. Xu Qing planned to go to the back mountain to pay homage to the Sixth Master.
But just when the banquet was about to end and he was about to leave, something unexpected happened.
Purple light shone in the sky, changing the color of the evening glow. When Xu Qing looked up, the look of the captain who was bragging with Zhang San in the distance suddenly changed.
The next moment, the purple light all over the sky gathered together, forming the figure of a woman.
The skin that can be broken by a blow, the graceful figure, the face as beautiful as a fairy, the elegant temperament, and the terrifying cultivation level, when put together, turned into a peerless beauty who seemed to have stepped out of a painting.
It is none other than the Immortal Zi Xuan.
She did not arrive during the banquet, but waited until it was over. This detail actually represented respect.
As for her appearance, Xu Qing instinctively felt a little embarrassed. Thinking of the letter he had received, he felt that his mood suddenly changed. At this moment, he just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, so he quietly backed away.
The captain's side was even more so. Almost as soon as he saw the purple light, his body swayed and he ran away instantly.
But he didn't know that Master Qi was staring at him from beginning to end.
Almost at the moment when the captain was escaping, Qi Ye raised his right hand and grabbed him from the air. The captain's figure was lifted out by Qi Ye amidst the screams of grief.
When he appeared in Qi Ye's hands, the captain's limbs were still waving, as if he wanted to struggle, but it didn't help. In the end, he could only look at Qi Ye with a pitiful face.
"Master..."
The Seventh Master did not look at his eldest disciple, but looked at the arriving Immortal Zixuan from the sky with a smile on his face.
"Fellow Daoist Zixuan, I, the evil disciple, have caused you trouble. I don't think there is any problem with the punishment you proposed for him last time."
Qi Ye said, throwing Chen Erniu in his hand into the air, and after it landed in front of Master Zixuan, Chen Erniu let out a sad cry.
His limbs were restrained and he could not move, but his neck could be moved, so he quickly lowered his head and saw Xu Qing, who was quietly retreating from the crowd and had reached a distance.
"Junior brother, save me. Speak kindly to Immortal Zixuan, or come and stay with me..."
Xu Qing suddenly felt angry and secretly said to you, Chen Erniu, don't forget to drag me along at this time. At this moment, his instinct was to speed up and retreat, but it was still too late.
After the captain's words came out, Master Zixuan lowered her moving head and looked at Xu Qing with her beautiful eyes, her expression half-smiling but not smiling.
"Kid, come with me, I have something to tell you."
Xu Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she thought of the reply again. She was confused and thought about how to refuse.
When the captain heard this, his eyes lit up and he was about to speak, but his mouth was sealed by the hand of Master Zixuan, making him unable to speak.
He could only blink at Xu Qing crazily, blinking back and forth.
Xu Qing ignored him and was about to speak, but Master Qi coughed.
"Fourth, go ahead."
Xu Qing glanced at his master silently, and Master Qi pretended not to notice.
So the next moment, under the chuckle of Master Zixuan, Xu Qing's body flew up involuntarily and landed next to Master Zixuan.
As soon as he got close, a familiar fragrance hit his face, and a sound as wonderful as trickling spring water, so refreshing that it echoed in his ears.
"Kid, have you received my letter?"
Xu Qing quickly shook his head.
Immortal Zixuan chuckled lightly, flicked his sleeves, and when Xu Qing shook his head, he and the captain disappeared between heaven and earth.
When he appeared, he was already within the secret realm of the demon snake of Xuanyou Sect.
What caught Xu Qing's eyes was a huge snake bone winding like a mountain range.
Only one person exists among the snake bones.
This person is Wu Jianwu.
He was holding a big brush in his hand, with a seal on his mouth, and was washing the snake bones out of boredom.
At this moment, Wu Jianwu's eyes lit up immediately after he noticed Xu Qing and the three of them in the air.
The captain also saw all this and cried out sadly in his heart.
"Chen Erniu, if you steal the snake's tooth, someone else would have ripped off its bones and muscles. However, your master will intercede on this matter. Also, for the sake of your junior brother, I won't argue with you."
"You actually want to use the tooth. You could come to me to borrow it. Why steal it? That's all. I can lend you the tooth, but you will be punished by brushing the bones of the demon snake here for three months. You must brush all the teeth within three months.
clean."
"Go ahead."
Immortal Zi Xuan spoke calmly, and with a wave of his hand, the captain's body fell towards the snake bone and landed next to Wu Jianwu.
Wu Jianwu's face was full of pride, and his eyes were even more excited. He quickly handed the captain a big brush and pointed to the distance.
It can be seen that less than half of the snake bones here have actually been washed, but more than half are left. It seems that Wu Jianwu deliberately did not wash them and kept waiting.
Now he is waiting for his companion, and the direction of his finger seems to tell the captain, I have kept that half for you for a long time.
The captain sighed, but he was also secretly relieved, because this punishment was just like tickling, and it couldn't be any milder.
"It seems that the letters I wrote worked, I will write more in the future!"
The captain blinked, put on an aggrieved expression, and lowered his head to brush the snake bones. However, his expression changed as he brushed, because the snake bones here were special and extremely difficult to clean, and it was difficult to even operate the cultivation base.
Looking at the mountain-like snake bones, the captain's expression gradually became miserable.
Xu Qing looked at all this and felt happy in his heart.
At this moment, after throwing Chen Erniu down, Master Zixuan took Xu Qing one step forward and appeared at the highest point of this secret realm, where the demonic snake head stuck out its head and seemed to be roaring to the sky.
On the bone.
Here, she sat down and looked at Xu Qing with a smile.
"Sit down."
Xu Qing gritted his teeth and sat down. Here he could see the captain working below more clearly, and he felt more relaxed. However, when Zixuan looked at him like this, he felt more and more nervous.
Especially the Immortal Zixuan spoke softly.
"Kid, in the letter you wrote to me, you promised me three things. Now you can start on the first promise."
Xu Qing was confused and her expression was confused.
