Chapter 503 Yang Jian under the sugar-coated cannonball
The next day, early morning, in Luofu Cave.
"Disciple pays homage to master."
Qi Yi and several junior brothers and sisters saluted respectfully.
"Well, no need to be polite, just sit down."
Qi Yuan gently waved his hand and asked them to sit down on the futon, and then asked: "In the past few years since I left as a teacher, nothing happened at the mountain gate, right?"
"Reporting to Master, nothing major happened, everything is as usual."
Qi Yi thought for a while and then said: "Speaking of which, there is really one thing that I need to ask Master to make the decision on."
"oh?"
Qi Yuan looked surprised: "What happened? Can you tell me?"
Ever since he pushed Qi Yi to the stage and took charge of Emei on his behalf and managed all affairs of the mountain gate, Qi Yi has grown faster and faster, speaking and doing things in a reasonable and measured manner, which has convinced all his disciples.
At regular intervals in recent years, although Qi Yuan would listen to Qi Yi report to him on the affairs of the sect, he would only discuss the future development of the sect with him in a general direction. Qi Yi could make the final decision on various specific matters, such as
Nowadays, it is quite rare for him to make the decision when nothing major happens.
"That's it, Master."
Qi Yi cupped his hands and said: "Some time ago, the Qin State, one of the great powers of the Nine Provinces, sent an envoy to Emei, saying that their new king of Qin had succeeded to the throne. Because he admired the Emei Sword Sect, he planned to make our Emei the national religion, and he also wanted to respect his master as the national teacher.
.
On one hand, this matter involves Master, and on the other hand, I am also a little undecided and would like to ask Master for his opinion. After all, we in Emei are an outsider sect and are too involved with the mortal realm. Isn’t there something wrong with it?”
"Ying Zheng succeeded to the throne?"
Qi Yuan raised his eyebrows and remembered the young man he had met a few years ago.
Speaking of the two Qin kings before Ying Zheng, they were relatively unlucky. One succeeded to the throne and died suddenly within three days, and the other reigned for three years and still died young in his prime, which made Qi Yuan somewhat suspicious.
There's nothing fishy about it.
Especially King Qin Xiaowen, who died three days after taking the throne. No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong. He died suddenly after only three days on the throne. Isn't this too fast?
However, the various power entanglements in the royal family were not something that an outsider like him could see clearly, and he was unwilling to delve into the reasons.
So he said: "If you reject him, then forget about the position of national master.
In addition, he sent someone to tell him that it would be best to set rules so that future generations would not hold the position of national advisor. Otherwise, it would only cause chaos and allow some people with ulterior motives to use magical powers to cause trouble for the imperial court.
As for respecting Emei as the state religion, this matter..."
Qi Yuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It's not necessary. After all, our Emei Sword Sect is a practicing sect. What we pursue is the road to immortality and freedom from the world. Even though we often send disciples to walk down the mountain, there will be demon slayers when traveling around the world."
The act of exterminating demons should not be too involved in the secular realm.
Although being enshrined as the state religion will definitely be beneficial to the development of the sect, our development speed in Emei is already fast enough, and there is no need to speed up the pace.
What's more, for us, thousands of years pass by in a blink of an eye, but how many years can a mortal country last?
Once it is too deeply involved with a secular country, when the power of that country is weakened and the dynasty changes, the sect will also be involved, but the gain will not be worth the loss.
This matter cannot be done!"
"Disciple understands."
Qi nodded and agreed. After knowing the master's attitude, he felt confident.
Qi Yuan sighed lightly.
He originally thought that although the Emei Sword Sect was not suitable to be the state religion of Qin, the Taoist sect as a whole was still suitable.
However, he thought about it later and ultimately did not say these words out loud.
Because the Jiuzhou human race has its own way of development, and Ying Zheng also has his own political philosophy, the Taoist sect already has a very strong reputation among the human race, and there is no need to guide more people to believe in the Taoist sect.
After all, although the Qin State is only a corner of the country now, after Ying Zheng unifies the six countries and takes over the entire nine states, the Qin State's territory will be very large. If too many people choose to enter the Taoist sect due to the war, this will
Invisibly, it will also cause considerable losses to the development of the human race.
The elder deacon in charge of managing the outer disciples said: "Master, I arranged for the Qin envoy to stay at the reception house for the outer disciples, but that person was also a eloquent person and had come into contact with many outer disciples during this time.
Some of the outer sect disciples who were born in the Qin Kingdom may have been frustrated because they had not been able to enter the inner sect for many years because of insufficient qualifications. Then, under the persuasion of the Qin State envoy, they became interested in serving the Qin State.
It’s a fight for wealth and wealth in the world, whether we should let them go down the mountain.”
"Let them be."
Qi Yuan sighed softly: "However, they can go down the mountain, but they must set rules for them in advance. They cannot use spells on mortals, and they cannot return to the mountain gate to ask for reinforcements to help them deal with Qi refiners from other countries.
If there are powerful demons causing trouble in the world, we will naturally not sit idly by and ignore it, but the disciples within the mountain gate cannot go down the mountain to help them fight the enemy country just because they have the same sect friendship, otherwise they may get deeper into trouble.
, repeating the same mistakes as when he was a god."
"Yes, Master, I know what I should do."
The disciple agreed, already understanding what the master meant.
Those disciples who still cannot enter the inner sect after years of assessment are basically people with low qualifications and low moral practices. Their potential is limited, so they are suitable for dealing with some little monsters.
If they were still staying in Emei, they would naturally be taken care of by the sect, but since they have moved to the world and want to go down the mountain to seek wealth, they can no longer involve the disciples in the sect with mundane matters.
After all, there are lessons learned from the Great Tribulation of the Gods. If one invites the disciples from the left to the right to help fight in the war, a slight mistake may lead to a big disaster.
Although few of these disciples have witnessed the Great Tribulation of the Gods, they have also heard about many things that happened at that time. They know that many of the immortals of the Jiejiao Sect were invited out one by one at that time, and the hatred grew deeper and deeper.
, and finally succeeded in triggering the Immortals of the Jie Sect to set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, but suffered heavy losses in the first battle.
This is also the reason why the disciples of the Shangqing lineage always have some differences with the Yuqing lineage.
It's just that when the Yuqing lineage taught their disciples, of course they would not tell the truth, but would only preach that they were the righteous party and acted in accordance with nature. Only then did they achieve the victory in the Great Tribulation of the Gods. As for intercepting the teaching, it was not
When you follow the will of heaven, if you don't obey the destiny and try to go against it, you will naturally become the loser.
As for how they won, there is no need to elaborate.
It is precisely this kind of propaganda that makes the junior disciples of the Yuqing lineage think that they are on the side of righteousness, so they are so upright and awe-inspiring when facing the disciples of the Shangqing lineage.
He looks like a leader of the righteous path, and his words are also arrogant. He always feels that he is superior to others and looks down on those from the Shangqing lineage who go against the will of nature.
After Qi Yuan had a general understanding of the affairs within the sect, he stopped interfering and let these disciples discuss and deal with it.
Later, he asked about the cultivation status of these disciples.
After all, cultivation is the foundation. If their cultivation is really delayed because of managing the sect, then the gain outweighs the loss.
This is also the reason why Qi Yuan arranged many deacons and elders in each hall to handle specific tasks, so as to prevent these disciples with great potential from missing their practice due to being busy with common affairs.
With his current level of cultivation in the Golden Immortal Taoism, it would be easy to guide these disciples. What's more, he went to Shangqingtian this time and received the teachings of the leader of Tongtian. His Taoism realm has taken a big step forward. This speed of progress
It made even Bixiao jealous.
Qi Yuan spent most of the day preaching to these disciples, answering the difficult questions and confusions they encountered during their practice, making each of these disciples happy. It was not until Yang Chan appeared that these disciples bowed respectfully.
, and left one by one.
Although Yang Chan had no intention of driving them away, she was pregnant at this time, and these disciples could not disturb Master's purity. If they wanted to ask Master for advice on cultivation issues, they could come anytime in the future. There is no need.
Now it's left here as an eyesore.
Three days later, Qi Yuan summoned a white cloud and flew Yang Chan, mother and daughter Qi Lingyun, towards the Guanjiang estuary.
The white clouds are leisurely, neither fast nor slow, comfortable and leisurely.
Along the way, Qi Lingyun looked around with curiosity on his face.
This girl rarely goes out of Mount Emei, so every time she goes out, she will be curious about the affairs of the outside world. If Qi Yuan hadn't held her in his arms, this little girl might have cheered and ran off to play somewhere.
.
When they slowly arrived at the mouth of Guanjiang River, it was already afternoon.
The Guanjiang Estuary at this time was completely different from that of the past. Under Yang Jian's governance, there were countless fertile fields on both sides of the river. Many people from villages and towns settled here, and a city was even built nearby, which was quite prosperous.
Nowadays, not to mention that there is no demon king who dares to flood the farmland on both sides of the river, even the demons rarely appear in front of people.
As soon as the family of three arrived in front of Xiansheng Palace, the palace door was already opened, and Yang Jian came out to greet them.
"Haha, Erlang, I haven't seen you for a few years, you are really good at what you do!"
Qi Yuan walked forward with a smile and said hello to his uncle.
"snort!"
Yang Jian snorted lightly and didn't want to pay attention to him.
Because he cultivated wholeheartedly, he had already reached the peak of Taiyi Xuanxian many years ago, and was only one step away from the Golden Immortal. However, it took a great opportunity to break through to the Golden Immortal realm, so he had not yet done so.
Promotion.
At his current state, no matter how much he cultivates, the most he can do is make his magic power more powerful and purer. Moreover, it has not been many years since he and Qi Yuan last met. How can he be so good at cultivation?
So Yang Jian could see through someone's mind at a glance. This was obviously to show off his golden immortality in front of him.
Humph, isn't it just that you became a Golden Immortal before me? What's so great about it!
Yang Jian felt a little sour in his heart, but also secretly frightened.
Because he could clearly feel that Qi Yuan's aura was much more powerful than when they met a few years ago, which showed that he had made considerable progress during this time.
This made him secretly wonder, the higher his moral character, the slower his progress. How could he be different from others when he came here?
Could it be said that this is because he created his own method of practicing swordsmanship and received merit from heaven, which makes him different?
However, he has also inquired about some great powers who created their own cultivation methods. Even those great powers also need time to slowly accumulate after they have reached a certain level of cultivation. There are really few who have achieved the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit like him.
You can make rapid progress after that.
"uncle……"
The little girl opened her arms and ran towards Yang Jian.
Only then did a soft smile appear on Yang Jian's cold face, and he reached out to hug his little niece: "Yun'er, do you miss your uncle?"
"Hmm, that's great."
The little girl sweetly said some nice words, and under the attack of a lot of sugar-coated bullets from her, Yang Jian quickly forgot about Qi Yuan.
"Second brother."
Yang Chan said hello to Yang Jian. Seeing her second brother acting like a slave to her daughter, she couldn't help but shake her head: "Second brother doesn't need to spoil her too much. Be careful if you spoil her, she will cause trouble again."
"Not afraid."
Yang Jian replied nonchalantly: "If anyone dares to bully our Xiaoyun'er, I will teach him a lesson."
"Uncle is the best."
The little girl hurriedly flattered Yang Jian and praised Yang Jian until he smiled brightly. He was not as cold as before, and the Meishan brothers who came out behind him were stunned for a moment.
These people had not been subdued by Yang Jian for too long. They had always thought that their master was a cold and heroic being, but now they discovered that there was another side.
