The day after the competition, Yan Hongchen came to Qingyingju Qingmufeng's residence.

This is a small courtyard, some of which are simple and simple. When you open the courtyard door, you will find a small room inside. Outside the room is a set of stone tables and benches, with a chessboard carved on the stone table.

Qing Mufeng was sitting on the stone bench. When he saw Yan Hongchen arriving, he said, "Young man, are you here? Play chess with me."

Yan Hongchen cupped his fists and bowed in salute, then stepped forward and sat down to play with Qing Mufeng. After playing with Qing Mufeng for a long time, he lost.

Yan Hongchen said: "Thank you for your advice. The sect leader is one step ahead in chess, and the disciples can't catch up to him."

Qing Mufeng supported Bai Xu and said: "Playing chess is like walking in the world and doing things. What a person's character is can be seen from his chess patterns."

Yan Hongchen asked: "What does the sect master think of my character?"

Qing Mufeng replied: "It's good to be calm, upright, resolute, and have a plan."

Qing Mufeng said again: "Do you know whose residence this place used to be?"

Yan Hongchen thought for a moment and said: "Since it is called Qingyingju, could it be that this is the place where the founder of Qingying Sect lived?"

Qing Mufeng nodded and said: "Yes, this is the place where the founder of the mountain, Qingying Sword Master, lived with the Hongchen Sword Emperor."

With that said, Qing Mufeng led Yan Hongchen into the house. Although the outside of the house looked simple and ordinary, the inside and outside were festively and gorgeously decorated, like a newlywed boudoir.

Looking around this small room, Yan Hongchen was attracted by a portrait on the wall. In the painting, he saw a man holding hands with a woman. The sword on the man's back turned out to be the Weeping Blood Sword, while the sword in the woman's hand was three feet long.

Half of the ancestral sword looks like.

I saw that this woman was the beautiful fairy that Yan Hongchen saw when he activated the ancestral sword and was called mother with tears in his eyes.

But the man was dressed in plain clothes, with simple and ordinary attire, but he still couldn't hide his handsome and proud figure that was rare in the world.

Yan Hongchen's heart trembled, could this be the true appearance of the Red Lotus Sword Emperor?

With that simple yet extraordinary appearance, although the portrait couldn't describe much information, it could be seen from the eyebrow sword that he was an expert, and his eyes had the feeling of being silent and there was only one sword in the world.

The Sword Emperor is as simple as a mountain scholar, and his woman is as noble as a goddess.

Mortals and fairies were supposed to be incompatible, but they came together.

Yan Hongchen thought to himself that no matter how refined a woman was, she would be just an ordinary or pretty flower in front of the Red Lotus Sword Emperor. There must be something about that woman that attracted the Sword Emperor, and it was not just her appearance.

Qing Mufeng said: "Qingying Sword Master, whose surname is Qing, has only one name, Ying. The Qingying Sect is named after her. The love-hate entanglement between him and the Red Lotus Sword Emperor back then is also a story that makes people feel regretful.

"

Yan Hongchen said: "Then why didn't the two of them get together in the end?"

Qing Mufeng said: "I am

He is a descendant of the Qing family, the ancestor of the ancestor, and can be considered a descendant of the ancestor, so he knows relatively clearly.

Back then, both of them were rare talents in the Continent of the Gods, and the Red Lotus Sword Emperor stood at the pinnacle of genius. Almost no one among his peers could become the Sword Emperor's opponent.

In order to defeat the Sword Emperor, Patriarch Qingying kept working hard until his opponent turned into his lover.

One day when the two were about to get married, the Sword Emperor suddenly left without saying goodbye, causing Patriarch Qingying to think that she had been abandoned. She was so resentful and painful that she cut off all the ties of love in a rage.

Later, during his cultivation, because he was bound by the Sword Emperor's feelings, he braved the disapproval of the world and failed to break through the realm, resulting in the destruction of his soul.

Until the Sword Emperor came back again, the Sword Emperor was already the great emperor of the Continent of the Gods. When he learned that Patriarch Qingying had died, the Sword Emperor was in great pain, and finally disappeared from the continent."

Yan Hongchen thought to himself: "I see. No wonder when the woman in the ancestral sword saw me, she said that the sword emperor was a heartless person and owed her."

In this way, Qingying Sword Master is a pitiful person.

Waiting for you, you will not come. If you come, I will disappear.

Since you are leaving, why are you coming? You treat me with kindness, but you betray my heart.

A woman like Qingying Sword Master should have a good destination, but in the end she went to the road of death.

Thinking back on it, the Red Lotus Sword Emperor's words about love in the world, trying to kill but turning into chaos, were probably referring to this sad love.

Qing Mufeng said: "It seems that Qingying is respected in the Eastern Region, and no one can shake it. It was indeed the same when Qingying Sword Master was in power. There used to be a demon sect in the Eastern Region, with weird skills and wanton slaughter of living beings, and the Qingying Sect established a sect.

Then, it was uprooted almost overnight. Now, after so many years, the remnants of the Blood Demon Sect have quietly revived. I am afraid that one day, the Blood Demon Sect will come back to take revenge on the Green Shadow Sect."

Yan Hongchen wondered: "What does the sect master mean when he says these words to his disciples?"

Qing Mufeng said: "Because you are the descendant of the Sword Emperor. When the Sword Emperor left, there was a sword intention he left behind in this painting. Perhaps the Sword Emperor calculated that the Qingying Sect would be in trouble, so he had

He said that if his successor comes here, he must be brought here. If one day the Qingying Sect encounters the disaster of annihilation, the Sword Emperor's sword will can relieve the sect from the crisis. And you can also relieve this disaster.

The key is, because you are the one who has inherited the Sword Emperor’s swordsmanship, and only you can inspire the Sword Emperor’s sword intention.”

Hearing this, Yan Hongchen nodded and said, "Disciple, keep this in mind."

After following Qing Mufeng out of the hut, he asked: "You are the number one new disciple this time. Do you want to stay in Xijian Pavilion and continue to practice, or do you want to join the inner sect?"

Yan Hongchen asked in return: "What is the difference between the Inner Sect and the Xijian Pavilion?"

Qing Mufeng said: "The inner sect is built on the spiritual veins of the Qingying Sect and is full of spiritual energy. If a cultivator practices in the inner sect, the benefits can be imagined. If your talent is not limited to your achievements, your cultivation level can almost be

It’s been progressing by leaps and bounds.”

Hearing this, Yan Hongchen thought to himself: "So that's it. The Holy Vein is a vein of spiritual stone. Only places with abundant spiritual energy can it be created over time."

Seeing Yan Hongchen muttering something, Qing Mufeng smiled and said: "This is a good thing that many people can only ask for. You are still thinking about it. I will give you time to prepare. If you are ready, tell me and I will take it personally.

you go."

Yan Hongchen said: "There is no need to prepare. Please take me there, Master."

Qing Mufeng nodded, and a force swept Yan Hongchen up, passing through the outer sect extremely quickly, and stopped on a mountain peak behind the outer sect.

I can only see the bare mountain peaks here, and the four pavilion peaks of the Outer Sect can be seen in the distance. The aura here is almost a hundred times that of the Outer Sect.

Yan Hongchen couldn't help but take a deep breath and suddenly felt refreshed.

Yan Hongchen suddenly wondered: "Is this the inner sect?"

Qing Mufeng nodded and said: "The inner sect is under the mountain here, please take a closer look."

I saw that when I walked to the edge of the peak and looked down, there was a valley below. There was also a bare place inside, and there was a flat land in the valley.

Qing Mufeng carried Yan Hongchen flying down to the valley.

An old man appeared in front of him and said, "Brother, why are you here?"

Qing Mufeng laughed and said: "This is the number one new disciple this year. I will send him to the inner sect to practice."

This old man looked senile, but he had a full head of black hair. He looked at Yan Hongchen and didn't ask any questions.

Qing Mufeng said: "This is the leader of the inner sect and the younger brother of our sect leader, Qing Muyang. You can call him Elder Qing."

Yan Hongchen bowed and clasped his fists, saying, "I've met Elder Qing."

Qing Muyang said calmly: "No need to be polite, welcome to join the inner sect."

Qing Mufeng called Qing Muyang, pushed Yan Hongchen away, and said something in his ear. Qing Muyang looked slightly surprised, and then returned to his original expression.

Qing Mufeng returned to Yan Hongchen and said: "Young man, practice hard and strive to achieve success in your studies as soon as possible."

Yan Hongchen bowed respectfully again and said: "Disciple, please remember this!"

When Yan Hongchen looked up again, Qing Mufeng had disappeared.

Qing Muyang said: "This is the inner sect. There are many caves here. Each cave has a different level of spiritual energy. This is your cultivation cave token."

As he spoke, Qing Muyang handed over a black stone tablet, pointed to the location of the cave where Yan Hongchen practiced, and then left.

Looking at the small but heavy stone tablet in his hand, Yan Hongchen finished holding it.

He stepped up and headed towards the location of the cave that Qing Muyang mentioned.
