Start to conquer the world of Jade Immortals

Chapter 364 The Great Hall
Qingyun Mountain Tongtian Peak, Yuqing Palace.

"What?" With unbelievable astonishment, Daoxuan Daoxuan blurted out: "The two major sects of the Devil's Cult have all been wiped out after the decisive battle with the beast monster?"

Standing at the bottom of the three righteous leaders today, as well as many seniors sitting or standing beside them, Xiao Yicai, Fa Xiang, Lu Xueqi and a group of righteous disciples who returned to Qingyun Mountain, did not speak. Only the leader Xiao Yi nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, Master, the seven of us have all seen it with our own eyes. The corpses in the Southwest Poisonous Snake Valley are horrific. The Devil's Cult has indeed been hit hard. Their bodies have been found, only the Ghost King Sect has not seen any of them, but maybe it was because of the monsters eating people, so..."

Lu Xueqi, who was standing behind, turned pale again, as if this incident and the tragic situation at that time were always remembered in her heart, making her unable to get rid of it, but no matter what, she was already able to control her emotions at this moment. mood.

At this moment, the crowd in the Yuqing Palace was stirring, and the voice of discussion was getting louder and louder. Looking at the faces of these righteous elites, some were surprised, some were afraid, and more of them had complex expressions, mixed with surprises. The righteous way has fought for countless years, and the righteous way has been encircled and suppressed several times without much effect, but this time it was wiped out by the beast monster in one fell swoop, which is really a surprise.It's just that since the Demon Cult can stand against the Righteous Way, its strength should not be underestimated. However, facing the attack of the Beast Monster, it failed miserably. Qingyun Mountain.

But now it is the last hope of the common people in the world. Will it be able to stop this unprecedented catastrophe?

No one has a bottom in their hearts!

Sitting at the very front, the three giants of the righteous way, Reverend Daoxuan, Master Puhong, and Yun Yilan, all frowned after discussing in low voices. At this time, Reverend Daoxuan said a few words, and Puhong Both the Master and Yun Yilan nodded in agreement.Then Master Daoxuan stood up and coughed.

The whispers in the Yuqing Hall suddenly died down, and everyone's eyes turned to Daoxuan Master. Daoxuan's face was solemn, and when everyone was completely quiet, he said in a deep voice: "Dear friends, what happened just now, everyone I heard everything very clearly. The Devil's Cult fell unexpectedly, which was completely beyond our expectations, but we still need to find out the details of the situation, and whether there are any remnants of the Devil's Cult who escaped in that war. It's not important anymore."

His face was stern, his eyes shone brightly, he was not angry but mighty, and said solemnly: "Fellow Taoists, catastrophe is just around the corner, the world is devastated, and the power of beasts and monsters is really surprising. But we are people of the righteous way. , there is no reason to retreat before the battle. This matter is complicated, and Master Puhong and Master Yungu will discuss it carefully before making a decision. Please come back first, so that you can cultivate yourself. The battle is probably not far away. At that time, for the common people of the world, I hope you will contribute a lot!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, Reverend Daoxuan showed a smile on his face, Master Puhong and Yun Yilan also stood up, and walked towards the back hall, when Reverend Daoxuan was about to follow, he suddenly remembered something, yes Xiao Yicai said: "Yicai, you can come too, and you can tell us more about the situation at that time."

Xiao Yi responded, walked up with big strides, and walked into the back hall behind Master Daoxuan.

As soon as the three respected and respected seniors left the main hall, there was a lot of excitement, and everyone was in groups, discussing a lot, except for Xiao Yicai who went to the back hall with Master Daoxuan, and the other six went to the southwest to inquire about the news. The disciples were all surrounded by many people, and they all chattered about the situation at that time, making expressions of surprise, shaking their heads, sighing, etc. from time to time.

But in the crowd, Lu Xueqi kept silent all the time, her eyes were indifferent, but it seemed that she couldn't see the faces of the crowd in front of her, but stared at the unknown place in the distance.

Suddenly there was a low commotion in the crowd, and then a road was given out, and Master Shuiyue, the head of Xiaozhufeng of Qingyunmen, walked in, followed by Wen Min and other beautiful female disciples of Xiaozhufeng.Lu Xueqi came back to her senses, and saw Master coming up to her, and her eyes were looking at her, her lips moved, and she called out in a low voice: "Master." Then, she lowered her head.

Master Shuiyue expressionless, said: "The head master wants to discuss this matter with other seniors, there will be no other matters here for the time being, you can go back to Xiaozhufeng with me first."

Lu Xueqi nodded and said in a low voice, "Yes."

Master Shuiyue didn't care about the others, and walked towards the outside of Yuqing Hall first, and Lu Xueqi immediately followed.The name of the first seat of Qingyunmen is no small matter, and most of the other righteous people present respected her very much, and they all gave way to her.At this moment, seeing that Lu Xueqi was about to walk out of Yuqing Hall with Master Shuiyue, Li Xun, who was standing beside him, had a look of anxiety on his face. He took a step and was about to say something when suddenly a figure blocked him. In front of him, Li Xun was startled, but he took a closer look and found that it was Wen Min, the eldest disciple of Master Shuiyue.

Wen Min smiled slightly at Li Xun, and said: "Senior Brother Li, Junior Sister Xueqi is very tired all the way, besides, Junior Brother Jiang is retreating again, I hope you don't come to bother me again."

Li Xun took a few glances at Wen Min, with a look of disappointment on his face, but he finally took back the steps he was about to take, and said, "Okay."

Before Li Xun could finish speaking, Wen Min had already smiled and said, "Senior Brother Li, don't worry, Junior Sister Xueqi and I are sisters from the same family. Our relationship is better than that of real sisters. I will naturally talk and do what I have to do and say." .”

Li Xun nodded and stopped talking, and stepped aside. Wen Min led several other female disciples of Xiaozhufeng behind him, and walked out of Yuqing Hall. Soon, everyone from Xiaozhufeng in Qingyun Mountain disappeared. In everyone's sight.

Riding through the clouds and fog along the way, he returned from Tongtian Peak to Xiaozhu Peak.After Master Shuiyue landed, his expression was indifferent, he didn't speak to anyone, and walked directly to the small bamboo peak hall, and everyone stood respectfully in place, watching Master Shuiyue off.

After the figure of Master Shuiyue disappeared into the building, Lu Xueqi seemed to lose her gaze, and stood there motionless until Wen Min patted her on the shoulder, and then woke up.

There was a hint of worry in Wen Min's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Junior Sister, what's wrong with you, seeing how lost your soul is, you didn't respond to several calls?"

Lu Xueqi froze for a moment, forced a smile on her face, and said, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister."

Wen Min shook his head and said, "What are you saying to me? Are you sorry? We are all sisters, don't be so alien. By the way, I think Master's expression is a bit wrong. I'll go in and see her old man. You have worked hard all the way. Now, go back and have a good rest."

Wen Min looked at the most beautiful and outstanding junior sister in the same school, and suddenly felt that her pale face, although still beautiful, was more haggard than before.Wen Min sighed in his heart, put his arms around Lu Xueqi's shoulders, and said softly: "Silly girl, stop thinking about it, we and you all know how Master treats you all the time. It's all right, I'll just take a look." .”

Lu Xueqi nodded silently, Wen Min smiled, and told the other junior sisters a few words, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a young girl walking out of the front door.

I saw the young girl looked here, then walked quickly towards Wen Min and Lu Xueqi.Wen Min let out a "huh", and when the girl came to him, he said, "Xiaoshi, why are you out? Didn't the master just come back? You should go to wait on him."

Xiaoshi nodded, took a look at Lu Xueqi, and said: "Master, senior sisters, the master said that I should come over and ask Senior Sister Xueqi to meet her at 'Jingzhuxuan'."

Wen Min was startled, and turned her head to look at Lu Xueqi. The corners of Lu Xueqi's mouth twitched, and a complicated expression flashed in her eyes, and then she said, "Okay, I'll go right away." After finishing speaking, she walked straight forward and disappeared quickly. In the Xiaozhufeng building.

Wen Min watched Lu Xueqi go far away, frowned, and said to Xiaoshi: "Xiaoshi, did Master say anything else, why did you call Xueqi over?"

Xiaoshi shook her head and said: "No, after Master came back, he has been silent all the time. After a while, he asked me to ask Senior Sister Xueqi to see her."

Wen Min let out an "oh", and couldn't figure it out for a while, shook his head, and said to the other female disciples of Xiaozhufeng: "Okay, it seems that there is nothing wrong now, you should go back and rest first."

All the girls responded and walked away one after another. Wen Min finally glanced in the direction where Lu Xueqi was going, feeling heavy in her heart, feeling mixed at the moment.

"Jingzhuxuan" is a secluded place in the buildings of the Xiaozhufeng Palace. It is close to the back mountain and surrounded by green "tear bamboo".Master Shuiyue has always liked to come here, to be alone, so other disciples of Xiaozhufeng are also very familiar with this place.

Lu Xueqi walked through the corridor, stepped on the small path among the bamboo forests paved with smooth pebbles, and went deep into the bamboo forest with twists and turns, and soon came to the abode made of bamboo in the bamboo forest. I don't know how many wind and rain times have passed through the outer wall made of beads, and there are already faint old marks at this moment.On both sides of the room, there is a small window, and the figure of Master Shuiyue sitting quietly can be vaguely seen inside.

Lu Xueqi walked to the door, the same bamboo door was ajar, for some reason, she felt a little nervous, took a deep breath, and said: "Master, I'm Xueqi, did you call me? "

Master Shuiyue's voice came from the house, flat and without emotion, he said: "Yes, you can come in."

Lu Xueqi pulled herself together, opened the door and walked in.The furnishings in the room are very simple, there are tables, chairs and tea sets, and there is another desk by the window with paper, inkstone, pen and ink on it. Master Shuiyue was not a person who likes luxury in the first place.At this moment, she was sitting at the desk by the window, silently watching the bamboo forest outside the window.

Lu Xueqi walked behind her, looked at Master Shuiyue's back, and said in a low voice, "Master."

Master Shuiyue turned around slowly and looked at Lu Xueqi, but Lu Xueqi seemed unwilling to meet her master and lowered her head.Neither the master nor the apprentice spoke, and the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward for a moment.In fact, Master Shuiyue and Lu Xueqi are not talkative people, and this kind of scene did happen when they were alone before, but for some reason, at this time today, there seems to be another strange feeling between the master and the apprentice. The strange feeling made their distance much farther than before.

After a while, Master Shuiyue broke the silence and asked in a flat voice, "Did you go to the southwest this time, and did your journey go well?"

Lu Xueqi nodded, and said, "Fortunately, beast monsters were rampant along the way, but we tried our best to avoid them, and finally found a mad disciple of the Demon Sect. Then we found the Poisonous Snake Valley and saw..."

Her voice suddenly stopped, a trace of clearly visible pain flashed across her face, and even her body seemed to tremble slightly.Master Shuiyue looked at Lu Xueqi, his eyes flickered, as if he was meditating on something, after a while, she looked at Lu Xueqi and said, "Have you seen her?"

Lu Xueqi was startled, and looked at Master Shuiyue. Although Master Shuiyue's eyes were flat, he seemed to see her deep heart at a glance.Lu Xueqi shook her head and said in a low voice, "No."

Master Shuiyue sighed softly: "The enemy of life, this is a hurdle and an opportunity."

Shuiyue's voice was not loud, but to Lu Xueqi, it was like a thunder in her ears. She raised her head abruptly with a stern expression on her face, but the bright eyes of Master Shuiyue standing in front of her were still staring straight at her. looking into her eyes.Lu Xueqi opened and closed her lips slightly, but pressed them tightly, without saying a word.

Silence fell again.

I don't know how long it took, Master Shuiyue's face gradually relaxed, and she looked at Lu Xueqi with a look of pity and heartache gradually.

"Qi'er, do you know why I am willing to let you marry a disciple of Senior Brother Wan?" Master Shuiyue looked at Lu Xueqi and said slowly.

Lu Xueqi thought for a while, shook her head, and said, "I don't know."

Master Shuiyue let out a long sigh, his eyes were full of vicissitudes, as if he remembered the past from this disciple, even her own expression was a little sad.She turned around slowly, walked to the window, looked at the green bamboo outside the window, still swaying with the wind, I just don't know who she was back then, but do you still remember this place?

"Actually, I used to be the same as you." Master Shuiyue said lightly.

Master Shuiyue didn't say much, and said: "Qi'er, you have always been smart, there are some things that I thought you should know even if I didn't tell you."

Lu Xueqi knelt behind her, motionless.I just heard Master Shuiyue continue to say: "Now that your cultivation base has stepped into the realm of transformation, even as a teacher, you may not be able to beat you, but love is sometimes very difficult to get through. While you care about Nephew Jiang, Don't you also care about Bi Yao, the suzerain of the Ghost King Sect?"

Lu Xueqi responded in a low voice, her voice was almost hard to hear, and said, "Yes."

Master Shuiyue said slowly: "Nephew Jiang's cultivation has reached the realm of transformation, even I can't see through it, so you still need to go through this hurdle yourself."

Lu Xueqi didn't speak but nodded.

Master Shuiyue's face gradually softened, turned around, helped Lu Xueqi up, and said softly: "Qi'er, you are my most beloved disciple, among the same sect, even among the entire Qingyun sect, the younger generation Among my disciples, you have the highest talent for Taoism practice, and your future is really limitless. I have high expectations for you, do you know?"

Lu Xueqi whispered: "Yes, Master."

Master Shuiyue looked at her and said: "With your aptitude, the first seat of the Xiaozhufeng lineage in the future will naturally be yours. At that time, you will be admired by everyone, and you will meditate and understand the way of heaven. Isn't this exactly what you dreamed of before?" ?”

Lu Xueqi remained silent, just lowered her head slightly, on her beautiful face, apart from the pale complexion, there was the slowly changing brilliance in her bright eyes, where, at some point, the hazy mist had disappeared.

Master Shuiyue sighed and said, "Go back and think about it."

Lu Xueqi stood in front of her, but did not turn away immediately after hearing this, but slowly raised her head, looking at the benefactor who single-handedly brought her up.

"What's the matter, Qi'er?" Master Shuiyue asked.

"Master." Lu Xueqi called out slowly, "Thank you for your cultivation for so many years, I will pass this last hurdle, no matter how Junior Brother Jiang chooses."

Master Shuiyue shook his head and sighed, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
