"My little life is going well, which is enviable."
Chen Qingyuan joked.
"General." Chang Ziqiu smiled slightly: "After the last siege, my behavior will be more low-key in the future. Without real growth, it will be difficult to shake the structure of the empire."
"Yeah." Chen Qingyuan's eyes narrowed and he didn't dare to be so aggressive anymore: "I'll stay in seclusion for a few years and let my injuries recover."
"Are you injured? Seriously?"
Chang Ziqiu took a few glances and saw nothing wrong with Chen Qingyuan's body, and a look of worry instantly appeared on his brows.
"The sudden change in the Demonic Abyss caused a riot in the Chaotic Realm Sea, which resulted in injuries." Chen Qingyuan said: "It's not serious, don't worry!"
"I plan to go out for a walk. Staying in Daoyi Academy is against the rules."
During these days, Chang Ziqiu was worried about Yiyi, so he never left. Now that Chen Qingyuan is back, it's time for him to do his own things.
"You are my brother and the guest elder of Qingzong. What's wrong with staying in the academy?"
Chen Qingyuan didn't want to make Chang Ziqiu feel uncomfortable, so he looked serious.
"I want to go out for personal reasons." Chang Ziqiu could understand Chen Qingyuan's good intentions and was worried that he would get into trouble after going out. However, how could he miss the scenery in troubled times: "My path is different from yours, and I can't always follow you.
OK."
Speaking of this, Chen Qingyuan understood and respected his friend's decision, nodded and said: "Okay, when do you plan to set off?"
"Now." Chang Ziqiu is not greedy for power, nor does he like beauty and money. Before meeting Chen Qingyuan, he was a free swordsman, accompanying the mountains and rivers, and walking with the sun and the moon.
After that, drink up the tea in the cup.
He stood up, put his feet on the water, and moved forward without hesitation, leaving a long shadow behind.
Everyone has his or her own path to walk, and it is normal to get together and be apart.
"Brother Chang, I hope you are well."
It wasn't until Chang Ziqiu's back was invisible that Chen Qingyuan withdrew his gaze and muttered to himself.
Next, Chen Qingyuan greeted the dean and chatted with the master for a while.
I played with Yiyi for a few days and lived a warm and comfortable life for a few days.
On this day, a message came from Zhao Yichuan: "Are you free?"
Hearing Elder Zhao's voice, Chen Qingyuan immediately went to his cave without delay.
When we came to the foot of a green mountain, there was a hazy white mist.
"come in!"
As Zhao Yichuan finished speaking, a smoke passage appeared at the foot of the mountain, leading directly to the cave.
Chen Qingyuan walked straight and entered the cave gate shrouded in white mist.
In the main hall, there are hundreds of peach trees planted, the ground is full of green grass, and it is full of vitality.
Zhao Yichuan was wearing a light gray brocade robe, sitting under a peach tree with a slight smile on his face.
"Elder Zhao."
Chen Qingyuan took a few steps forward and cupped his hands.
"You're welcome, sit down."
Zhao Yichuan is the dean's only direct disciple, and his talent is extremely high, far surpassing that of the two vice-deans. If nothing else happens, he must be the next dean of Daoyi Academy.
The last time Zhao Yichuan broke through the realm of Shenqiao, he accidentally touched a forbidden secret and his soul was trapped in Shenqiao. Fortunately, Chen Qingyuan helped to bring Zhao Yichuan's soul back from his body.
"Thank you in person for saving me."
Zhao Yichuan didn't have the chance to express his gratitude before, but now that he has recovered a bit, of course he has to express his gratitude.
"The elder's words are serious, this is what I should do."
Chen Qingyuan smiled.
"If you say so, forget about the gift I gave you. I'll keep it for myself."
Zhao Yichuan said with a smile.
"Gift? What gift?" Chen Qingyuan's eyes lit up and he said expectantly: "Who said I don't want it? Take it out and have a look."
"Slippery." How could Zhao Yichuan not know Chen Qingyuan's temperament? He teased, took out a Sumeru ring and placed it on the table: "I know that more than half of the Xuan Bing Sect's wealth has been given to you, and I have a huge amount of resources.
So there is no need to give you spiritual stones and other worldly things."
Chen Qingyuan took the Sumeru Ring in his hand unceremoniously, and looked inside to see what was there.
The huge Sumeru Ring contains only one thing.
A palm-sized colorful sacred stone.
"Immortal Li Crystal." Zhao Yichuan said in a deep voice: "This is a top-grade weapon-refining material that is hard to find in the world. Such a small piece of gemstone was accidentally obtained by me thousands of years ago, and it is priceless."
Daoyi Academy and the treasuries of many top forces also do not have Immortal Li Crystals.
Because this is the core material for building imperial weapons!
Since the Divine Bridge broke apart millions of years ago, there has been a shortage of avenues, making it difficult for all kinds of rare treasures to be produced.
It is no exaggeration to say that regardless of the situation in the old soil, this is probably the last piece of Imperial Army material.
"Elder, where did you get this thing from?"
Although Chen Qingyuan is young, he has rich experience and is well aware of the preciousness of the Immortal Li Crystal. Even millions of top-grade spiritual stones cannot buy this thing.
"I accidentally entered the graveyard of an ancient powerful man before, and this is the burial object inside."
Zhao Yichuan didn't hide anything and said bluntly.
Inexplicably, Chen Qingyuan showed a strange expression.
Is it possible that Elder Zhao dug the graves of Elder Lin’s ancestors?
Although this possibility is small, it is not impossible.
"Then I'll accept it."
Immortal Li Crystal is hard to come by. If you want to repair the Silver Spear or Black Cauldron in the future, it may play a great role.
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't leave you to drink tea."
Zhao Yichuan knew that Chen Qingyuan was carrying a valuable treasure and might need this precious material. The gift had been given and an eviction order was issued.
"Thank you, Elder Zhao."
After saying thanks, Chen Qingyuan stood up and walked out of the cave.
After walking out for a few steps, I bumped into an acquaintance.
The visitor was wearing a light green dress, looking gorgeous and graceful.
"Senior Brother Chen."
This person is none other than Song Ningyan, whom he has not seen for many years, a direct disciple of Zhao Yichuan, the legitimate daughter of the ancient Song family, and a true genius.
"Junior sister Song, what a coincidence!"
Chen Qingyuan met his acquaintance again and said hello with a happy face.
Chen Qingyuan returned many times in the past, and Song Ningyan was either in retreat or going out to practice.
This time, we finally see each other again, and it feels like we have been separated for thousands of years.
Many people can see Song Ningyan's affection for Chen Qingyuan.
It's a pity that everyone knows that Chen Qingyuan is dedicated to seeking Taoism and has no intention of seeking a Taoist companion.
Song Ningyan was very smart and knew that she and Chen Qingyuan were destined to be together, so she did not express her love for her and kept it hidden deep in her heart.
Practicing hard can bring the distance between the two parties closer. When we meet again one day, we may be able to laugh about the past.
"I'm here to ask Master for advice."
The emotional fluctuation deep in her eyes was quickly covered up by Song Ningyan, who smiled like a flower and spoke softly.
"Well, I won't disturb junior sister anymore."
Chen Qingyuan chuckled and nodded, passing by Song Ningyan.
Some people are destined not to be together for long.
Meeting is a kind of fate, worth remembering, don't expect too much.
Only when you look away can you let yourself go. Only when we see you in the future can we face it calmly and laugh about the past.
"Brother, walk slowly."
Song Ningyan turned around, stared at Chen Qingyuan's retreating back, and murmured.
She knew that there were countless women who were enamored of evil figures like Senior Brother Chen. The person who could truly be by Senior Brother Chen's side must be extremely outstanding, comparable to ordinary women.
Occasionally I can see you, and occasionally I can hear the news that you are safe.
