Some people's character and charm, even if they are gray-haired and stooped, will not change even a little bit with the passage of time.
Although they hadn't seen each other for a hundred years, Tian Buyi recognized that figure at a glance.
"Senior Brother Wan"
He called softly, and the old man holding a bamboo broom, who was less than thirty meters away from him, was startled and slowly turned around.
Wan Jian looked haggard, with wrinkles on his face that looked like sword marks, completely different from Tian Buyi's middle-aged appearance.
If they didn't know his identity, if the two of them stood together, everyone would probably say that one was the master and the other was the disciple.
He saw memories flashing through Tian Buyi's deep eyes, and he was in a daze for a while before saying, "Long time no see."
Wan Jianyi is an upright person, so if he doesn't see him, that's fine. If he recognizes him in person, he won't deny it anymore.
"Senior brother, you... aren't you?"
Tian Buyi stopped mid-sentence. He was a smart person. Thinking that Wan Jianyi had not left the ancestor's ancestral hall for a hundred years, he immediately thought of the only answer.
"Senior Brother, was it Senior Brother Daoxuan who saved you?"
The Ancestral Hall is right behind Tongtian Peak. If it weren't for Daoxuan, Wan Jianyi wouldn't have been able to hide here for hundreds of years.
You know, even though Wan Jianyi was so stunning back then, his talent for the righteous path and the devil's path were both astonishing.
However, Daoxuan is no worse than Wan Jianyi as a senior brother. They are both called Tongtian Peak's peerless twins, but their cultivation levels are actually about the same.
It's just that Daoxuan is more calm and disciplined, while Wan Jian is arrogant and has a bold temperament. This makes more people see Wan Jianyi instead of Daoxuan.
Moreover, it is precisely because of the difference in their personalities that the junior brothers and sisters in the sect like Wan Jianyi more, but respect and keep a distance from him.
To put it bluntly, who among young people wants to stay with a serious ‘elder’?
By some chance of misfortune, Tian Chengzi used the Zhuxian Ancient Sword again, and this led to so many things that happened next.
"I didn't die back then, he was indeed the one who took action."
Wan Jian nodded and walked towards the ancestral hall with a broom. He said: "Come in and talk. In order to hide me, he has not taken you to worship at the ancestor's ancestral hall for many years. You also come and offer a stick of incense."
Tian Buyi had many things to ask. Wan Jianyi treated him well back then, and now that he knew that he was not dead, he was both happy and full of questions about what happened back then.
When we arrived at the ancient ancestral hall, the memorial tablets of the ancestors of the past generations were placed on the shelf of the incense table in the middle of the ancestral hall. I don’t know what kind of wood the incense table was made of. It was dull in color, but it was very clean.
In front of the spiritual throne, there is an incense burner.
As soon as Wan Jian entered the ancestral hall, he skillfully placed the bamboo broom by the door, walked to the incense table, took out six incense sticks and lit them with the candle next to the incense burner.
The incense was lit, Wan Jian divided Tian Buyi's three incense sticks, and then he inserted the remaining three incense sticks into the incense burner.
Over the past hundred years, he has repeated this action countless times.
Tian Buyi respectfully paid homage to the ancestors of the Qingyun Sect, and like Wan Jianyi, placed the incense on the incense burner.
A glimmer of light flashed in Wan Jianyi's eyes. In the past, only Daoxuan was the only one who offered incense with him.
After finishing the incense, Tian Buyi could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart and couldn't wait to ask: "Senior Brother Wan, what happened back then? Why didn't you come out to meet us since you were not dead?"
"Haha, why would you want to see a dead man?"
Wan Jianyi replied lightly. He looked at Tian Buyi and said, "Besides, those senior uncles don't necessarily want me to live, so it's better not to cause any trouble to senior brother."
There were actually a lot of helplessness about things back then.
In desperation, he and Daoxuan killed the possessed Tian Chengzi, which looked like regicide to outsiders.
Although Tian Buyi saw what happened that day by chance and guessed some of the situation, he was only a second-generation disciple at that time and could not do much at all.
After Tian Chengzi died, the only people in the Tongtian Peak lineage who knew about the shortcomings of the Ancient Zhuxian Sword were Daoxuan and his senior brother.
Although the other chief uncles of the Pulse Masters have high seniority and strong cultivation, they don't know the secrets. Most of them only know the power of Zhuxian Ancient Sword and Zhuxian Sword Formation, but they don't know the secrets.
They only knew that Tian Chengzi was dead, and that he died at the hands of Wan Jianyi.
In addition, at that time, the Demon Sect had just been defeated by the Qingyun Sect and other righteous people. Although they were defeated, their power had not dissipated. The current situation was turbulent, and many things needed to be dealt with.
Whether it's a public trial or a questioning of guilt, someone must take it upon themselves, and then someone must clean up the mess. Only in this way can Qingyun be stabilized and there will be no contradictions internally or externally.
In short, Wan Jianyi shouldered everything when he was in the main hall, and was also the beginning of many things.
Wan Jianyi was an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time. When Tian Buyi asked, he just told him.
"I am dead, but Senior Brother Daoxuan practiced the Ghost Way and brought me back. But you can also see my appearance."
Wan Jianyi's talent and cultivation were astonishing to countless people back then, and it couldn't be easier to cultivate his appearance.
However, it is now in an old and decaying state. It is conceivable that there have been many changes.
He is alive, but he may not have that much longevity left.
Moreover, the current strength is only half-step to Taiqing, and has not really entered that realm.
Tian Buyi also became silent after hearing this.
The older generation has not passed away, Senior Brother Daoxuan has not fully taken power, and Senior Brother Wan Jianyi is indeed difficult to make an official appearance.
But that was only in the past. Now the leaders of the Seven Meridians are all second-generation disciples, and half of them are related to Wan Jianyi. Now Senior Brother Daoxuan has firmly taken the position of the leader. It is not a big deal for Senior Brother Wan Jianyi to return.
Difficult matter.
"Tap tap tap"
At this moment, a burst of footsteps came.
"Junior brother Tian, when you go to Tongtian Peak, you don't go to the main hall. Instead, you come to the back mountain first. It's really surprising."
Outside the ancestral hall, Daoxuan appeared there without knowing when.
His beard and hair were slightly white, and he was wearing a green Taoist robe. His expression was indifferent, but his attitude could not be discerned.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Only when he looked at Wan Jianyi, there was a bit of complexity in his eyes.
"Brother in Charge"
Tian Buyi looked at Daoxuan, and the three of them stood apart unconsciously, forming a triangle shape.
The three of them were silent for a while. All the secrets were revealed at once, and everyone felt very complicated in their hearts.
"Senior Brother, why don't you tell everyone the news that Senior Brother Wan is still alive?"
Tian Buyi asked directly, looking directly at Daoxuan.
Daoxuan looked directly at him, stared at him, and said calmly: "The public case has been decided back then, if junior brother appears, Qingyun Sect's thousand-year reputation will be destroyed in one day. What do you think I should do?"
In the world of Zhuxian, cultivation, reputation, and fame are intertwined, which has become the world of this immortal hero.
The reason why the Qingyun Sect firmly ranks first in the Righteous Path is not only because of the Zhuxian Ancient Sword. The Zhuxian Ancient Sword is only released once in more than a hundred years. It is always at a critical moment. Except for the mortal enemy Demon Dao, it will be forgotten sooner or later.
Therefore, another thing that maintains the most righteous path in the world is the reputation and fame accumulated over thousands of years. This is the most important thing and what Daoxuan values.
Yes, with his current status, if he wants Wan Jianyi to appear, there will be no obstruction.
But Wan Jianyi was a man who killed his master. Not only did he not die back then, he is still alive now and shows up in a swaggering manner.
He can survive even if he kills his master, and it is the current leader who saves his life.
So is there a possibility that the two senior brothers are aiming to kill their master and then seize the power of Qingyun Sect?
Based on this conjecture, what is the difference between Qingyun Sect and the Demon Sect?
When the time comes, just become the first sect of the Holy Religion.
Daoxuan had high reputation in the Qingyun Sect and knew the risks of doing so. At the same time, thinking deeper, there was not a trace of jealousy towards his junior brother in his heart.
"Brother, that case is wrong, you know better than me!"
