Chapter 142 The head of the undercurrent
In the Zhengyang Hall of Tiankun Peak, only Zhenren Xianyue and Zhenren Dukong were left, with no outsiders present, and the relationship between them was very familiar on weekdays, so they spoke a lot more casually.
However, when Dukong Zhenren heard Zhenren Xianyue asked this, he couldn't help but be surprised and said, "I'm still thinking about my mistakes in seclusion. Senior Brother, you are..."
Zhenren Xianyue sighed and did not speak immediately. He reached out and signaled Zhenren Dukong to walk aside with him and sat down, and then called people in to serve hot tea.
After the tea-given boy signaled to leave the hall at the gesture of Master Xianyue, Master Xianyue picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Suddenly, Master Dukong beside him exclaimed the good tea, then glanced at him squintly and said, "This tea is Xiaohe."
True Man Dukong nodded. As the head of Kunlun Sect’s Heavenly Soldier Hall for many years, he had a deep experience and had never seen anything. However, he smiled bitterly and sighed: "This little crane tea is indeed a good product, but I will probably not be able to get it from the Yi family in the future."
As for the reason why Xiaohe was not famous, Dukong Zhenren did not say it, but these two respected real people naturally knew it in their hearts. It was nothing more than the fact that He Gang bullied the girl of the Yi family. Now that the Yi family is in the same situation as this side, the tea leaves will naturally never be thought of again.
True Man Dukong shook his head and stopped thinking about these bad things. Instead, he looked at True Man Xianyue and said seriously: "Senior Brother, you summoned me over and suddenly asked the bad disciple He Yi, is there any explanation?"
Zhenren Xianyue nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "A murder case occurred in Liuxiangpu the day before yesterday. A serious disciple of this sect died of a life-threatening death. Have you heard of it?"
True Man Dukong nodded and said, "I heard that, but I haven't seen it there. I just know some sketches. Why, Senior Brother, you are..."
Zhenren Xianyue took out a book from his arms and handed it to him, and said lightly: "The situation in the house is above, you can see it yourself."
True Man Dukong took it with some confusion. He first glanced at True Man Xianyue, then lowered his head and began to flip through it. But as he looked at it, his brows frowned slightly, and his face became more and more serious. After a moment, there was only the sound of him turning the pages in the huge Zhengyang Hall.
After a while, Dukong Zhenren finished reading everything, his face became a little ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "The Demon Cult is so arrogant, it's really too damning!"
As he said that, he seemed to have thought of something again, looked at Zhenren Xianyue, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "Senior Brother, this happened. You suddenly asked that boy He Yi, did you want him to come out..."
"Let him come over to see me." Zhenren Xianyue stretched out his fingers and rubbed his eyebrows, and said lightly, "I know you have high expectations for He Yi, but in the past few days, his younger brother did anger. As his brother, he did something wrong, and it is inevitable that he would punish him one or two."
True Man Dukong looked a little happy on his face, and he stood up and said, "Of course. In fact, if it weren't for your senior brother, you came forward to make things happen for me that day, Qiandian and Mingzhu might not have been willing to break up this matter so easily. I have always been grateful for this."
Zhenren Xianyue nodded, looked at Zhenren Dukong, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes and said, "It's good that you know it. After the Battle of the Waste Valley ten years ago, the Demon Cult declined for many years, and few people in the sect had contact with those thieves again, but your disciple He Yi, who had an accident in a confused place a few years ago and had a few entanglements with the remnants of the Demon Cult. I heard that it had been several years?"
"Three years." Dukong Zhenren replied immediately, "The child was strong and strong in his mind. Because his close relative died at the hands of the demon demons in his family in the past, he hated the demons to the core, so he fought with the demons in a confused place for a long time. After three years, both sides were injured and then returned to the mountain. But if you know the situation of the demons in this sect so deeply, you will not be more important than him!"
Zhenren Xianyue smiled and said, "I also thought of this, so...of course, if you think he is practicing in seclusion and has an impact on his Taoist practice, I will not be good..."
"There is absolutely nothing!" Dukong Zhenren immediately spoke and said firmly, "Senior Brother, I am not a fool. This is a chance given to him by the senior brother, so that he can leave the seclusion in advance naturally. Many families in Kunwu City don't have to say much before the Demon Cult threatened. We both remember this love in our hearts!"
Zhenren Xianyue smiled, looked a little sighing, and said, "It's good that you know. Over the years, in the sect, I have always been dissatisfied with the position of the head of the sect. I always said that when my master retired to Dongfeng, the position of the head of the sect should have been passed on to Master Tianlan. Alas... like Qiandeng, Mingzhu and other junior brothers, their attitude towards this is also ambiguous. Only you have been in charge of the Tianbing Hall for many years and have always stood firmly on my side."
True Man Dukong sneered and said, "Senior Brother, don't be angry. Who doesn't know what those people are thinking about? It's just that they want to take the opportunity to suppress them. Fortunately, there are more things on the strange peaks in the sky clouds. It's ridiculous! Besides, when we were passing the throne back then, we were all standing in the Zhengyang Hall. Even Master Tianlan hasn't spoken yet. When is it their turn to chat?"
He bowed and said seriously: "Don't worry, senior brother, those clowns can't make the sky. Even if they take a step back, Master Bai Chen is still staying on Dongfeng Peak. I don't dare to do anything. I'll call He Yi to come and pay homage to Senior Brother. If you have any explanation, just say that if you want that kid to do his best to help you and capture this demon demon hidden in the dark, he will definitely not disappoint Senior Brother."
Zhenren Xianyue nodded with a smile and said, "It's so good."
True Man Dukong turned around and saw him walking with great vigor. This was a rare thing for people like him who had a sense of cultivation. However, it can be seen from this that True Man Dukong really liked his disciple He Yi and had great expectations. When encountering such a thing, he seemed to be happier than when he encountered a happy event.
Zhenren Xianyue watched Zhenren Dukong leave, and he was the only one left in the huge Zhengyang Hall. He turned around and sat alone in silence for a while, suddenly sighed softly, with a little inexplicable fatigue on his face.
With the master of the True Lord of Transformation, he was once again in the position of the head of the sect, but the few people below still dared to speak from time to time. Do they really have that courage?
Just rely on the few real people in the Nascent Soul Realm?
Zhenren Xianyue smiled bitterly, and his face gradually became heavier. I was afraid... there were people behind those people.
※※※
In Liuxiangpu Grass Garden, the competition for planting eagle fruit trees was disrupted by this sudden murder case. Not to mention anything else, even the leading Jindan monk Yan Luo and Lin Sheng did not return here for several days. The remaining servant disciples looked at each other and didn't know what to do.
However, life still has to continue. During these days when all kinds of gossip are circulating, everyone still comes to the edge of the spiritual field as usual. Although they don’t know if this competition can continue, they still have to continue working. However, some people are lazy, some people do more, and some seem to be extra serious.
This person who works very hardworking and serious is Lu Chen.
He never was lazy when he should work every day, and honestly finished all the things he should do. In his spare time, he gathered with others on the ridge of the field next to him, talking about the ups and downs of these days, talking about the unfortunate unlucky guy who died, and imagined together what those legendary monsters would be like if it was really done by the Demon Cult.
Everyone has no opinion on the gentle and polite Lu Chen. Some people are kind enough to remind him not to work hard. Look at Yan, the two uncles Lin have not come back for several days. This matter is probably going to be bad. Even if it is not bad, at least they have to compare again. Otherwise, they will not be here for the past few days. Who can tell whether there is anything wrong with it?
Lu Chen smiled without saying a word, nodding, but he was too lazy to talk about him.
After two more days, Yan Luo and Lin Sheng returned to Caoyuan. It seemed that they had heard about the murder case. The sect had other arrangements, so they were asked to come back.
However, the people are back, but the two Jindan monks Yan Luo and Lin Sheng have neither good-looking faces nor bad moods. Then, as most people expected, they directly ignored the results of the gaps during these few days and announced to everyone that this competition will be invalid. They will organize it again in a few days, and then strive to pick a suitable candidate.
Lu Chen was silent in the crowd, but the people around him were smiling happily. Occasionally, a fellow disciple who was familiar with Lu Chen came over to make fun of him, patted him on the shoulder, and then taught Lu Chen earnestly that "If you don't listen to the old man's words and suffer losses in front of you." Lu Chen also smiled bitterly, then nodded repeatedly, saying that you are saying it too well. I really didn't think about this principle thoroughly, and I will still practice seriously in the future.
Anyway, this matter seems to have just been turned over for now.
However, after a day, things suddenly changed again that no one expected. Yan Luo and Lin Sheng gathered everyone again, and then announced to everyone with a complicated expression that there would be no competition in the future. This time the candidate has been selected and went to Su Qingjun, the most popular genius in Kunlun School, to do things and cultivate the eagle fruit tree for her. The person named Lu Chen.
Everyone was upset, and even Lu Chen was dumbfounded when he looked at it, as if he was completely confused, and he looked puzzled.
Everyone asked around the two golden elixir monks, and then Yan Luo said lightly, "It's useless for anyone to say this, because Su Qingjun directly selected it."
Everyone was shocked, became more confused, and was making noise all the time. Yan Luo looked at Lu Chen, who was standing quietly behind the crowd, with a deep sense of sensation on the corner of her mouth. (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.) 16-10-19 10:47:27
