After I crossed into the book, I stole the protagonist's master Bai Yueguang

Xu Weichen lowered his eyes in thought. He took it for granted.

It's a simple truth that outsiders can understand, so how could he, as the person involved, not know it?

Although he grew up in Taicang Mountain and regarded it as his home, to many people in Taicang Mountain, he was a thorn in the eye.

He couldn't help but worry about Chaoyang's situation, and was a little hesitant about whether he should take his little apprentice back to Taicang Mountain.

If the sect finally decided to give up on him, he would not be afraid to go alone, but his two disciples - especially the youngest disciple was so weak that he could not withstand the slightest harm. Did he really want to take him into such a dangerous situation?

But if he didn't take him back to Taicang Mountain, where could he hide his little disciple? Where could he hide his little disciple with confidence?

Seeing Xu Weichen looking thoughtful, Liu Yishu knew that his goal had been achieved. Naturally, Xu Weichen had to return to Taicang Mountain. After all, Chaoyang was still there, and Xu Weichen also needed to settle the cause and effect with Taicang Mountain, but he could not return without any precautions.

"Master, the spiritual food here tastes delicious. Let's pack some and take it back for brother to try!" Liu Yishu interrupted Xu Weichen's thoughts.

"Okay." Xu Weichen agreed softly. He would feel more at ease if his little disciple was under his watch.

After packing up all the spiritual food in the restaurant, Xu Weichen took Liu Yishu downstairs.

Liu Yishu was originally going to leave the restaurant directly, but he suddenly approached a table of cultivators who were discussing the turmoil in Tianzong Mountain Range and spoke abruptly, "The cause and effect are wrong. I was in Tianzong Mountain Range at the time and happened to watch the whole process. It was not because Master Xu destroyed the spirit veins and stole the spirit stones that he was surrounded and hunted by the Yun family. Instead, he discovered a secret of the Yun family. When he was being hunted, he accidentally broke a ban and found a treasure cave. There was a pile of spirit stones as high as a hill in the cave, and he took some of them. Who can prove that the treasure cave belongs to the Yun family? Anyone who sees the ownerless treasure has a share. There are so many cultivators present, and Master Xu is not the only one. Everyone took it. The Yun family targeted Master Xu because they are afraid that their secret will be leaked and they will be despised by cultivators all over the world!"

Liu Yishu spoke loudly, and not only the monks at that table heard what he said, but all the monks in the hall heard it clearly.

The monks who were just watching the show were very good at grasping the key points. Someone immediately asked, "What is the secret of the Yun family? How could such a noble family be despised by all the monks in the world?!"

As soon as this question was asked, all the monks in the hall looked over.

"Why ask him? Since it's a secret, how could a young Foundation Establishment cultivator who's just watching the fun know it?!" A Jindan cultivator said disdainfully.

The monks all agreed with this.

"No, I know!" Liu Yishu said confidently.

"Then tell me, what do you know?" another Jindan cultivator asked with a smile.

"I was robbed in Tianzong Mountain Range before, and I took the opportunity to do something to the robber. The day before yesterday, I found that person among the Yun family members who were chasing Master Xu."

There was an uproar.

"This is unlikely. The Yun family is the head of the four great families after all. To do such a thing -"

"Ridiculous! The Yun family owns Xirang City and is richer than the Suzaku Dynasty. How could they do such a thing?!"

“Thinking about it carefully, although the Tianzong Mountains are not the Yun family’s territory, they are just outside the Xirang City. The Yun family actually allowed them to exist, which is problematic in itself.”

"If this is the secret that Master Xu discovered, why didn't he make it public when he was surrounded and killed in Tianzong Mountain Range that day?"

"If this is true, the Yun family will be despised by all the cultivators in the world!"

……

One word can cause a thousand waves. Seeing the monks talking about it, Liu Yishu retired after accomplishing his mission and left the restaurant quietly.

Xu Weichen stood at the entrance of the restaurant and watched the whole process of Liu Yishu's trouble. When he saw Liu Yishu coming out, he naturally took his hand and asked curiously as they walked: "Xiaoshu, how do you know that the person who caused the disaster in Tianzong Mountains is from the Yun family? Also, why do you know that there is a person who caused the disaster in Tianzong Mountains?" He remembered that he had not mentioned it to his little disciple.

"On the day I went to Xirang City, I heard someone say that while I was queuing at the city gate to enter the city." Liu Yishu remained calm and said calmly, then changed the subject, "Of course I was just making it up. They are allowed to slander you, Master, but can't we throw dirty water on them? Besides, just like those people said, the Yun family may not be innocent!"

The Yun family is indeed not innocent. It's the same for aristocratic families and sects. When they exist for a long time, they tend to harbor filth and corruption. Persecuting innocent people is nothing, and they can even persecute people from the same clan for their own benefit. Xu Weichen has a deep understanding of this.

He did not take out his flying magic weapon nor did he use his spiritual power to travel faster. Instead, he held Liu Yishu's hand and walked up the mountain step by step. Some things had to be decided.

After two days of rest, Liu Yishu felt better and could walk slowly, but that was all. Xu Weichen holding his hand saved him a lot of energy.

"Master, Taicang Mountain is your sect. Will I be a disciple of Taicang Mountain in the future?" Liu Yishu asked curiously on the way.

"Of course." Xu Weichen replied.

Liu Yishu looked regretful. "Don't they need any trials? I read in a book that most big sects have entrance trials when they accept disciples!"

After being reminded by Liu Yishu, Xu Weichen remembered that Taicang Mountain did have sect rules. If one wanted to officially become a disciple of Taicang Mountain, one had to go through the path of self-examination.

When he brought Chaoyang back before, Chaoyang had walked the path of self-examination, but the time was different now. His state of mind was very different from that time, and he did not want Liu Yishu to become a disciple of Taicang Mountain right now.

If he wants to become a formal disciple, he must use his own life essence and blood to make a life plate. Firstly, the little disciple is in poor health, and taking his own life essence and blood will make him weaker. Secondly, Taicang Mountain’s attitude towards him is unclear. Once he is abandoned by the sect, he will definitely leave Taicang Mountain. By then, the life plate may be used by the sect to disadvantage them.

Thinking of this, Xu Weichen's heart moved.

The life tablets were all placed in the sect's ancestral hall, which was heavily guarded and difficult to enter without reason. But if the young disciple became a disciple of Taicang Mountain, when the life tablets were made, wouldn't he be able to use the excuse of looking after the disciple and enter the sect's ancestral hall? Then he could take away his and Chaoyang's life tablets without anyone noticing, and he wouldn't be controlled by others in the future.

But as soon as this idea came to his mind, he gave it up. How could his young disciple, who was so weak, walk the path of self-examination? Not to mention the test of his state of mind, it would be impossible for the young disciple to climb the 9,999 steps alone!

"You are my disciple, and you don't need any trials." He finally said this.

"Is that so?" Liu Yishu looked at Xu Weichen suspiciously. The book clearly wrote that one had to go through the path of self-examination to enter Taicang Mountain. How could Xu Weichen lie to him?

Xu Weichen did not play by the rules, which made Liu Yishu feel a little embarrassed. The easiest way was to enter the sect's ancestral hall while making a life tablet for him and take away Xu Weichen's own life tablet. It was not impossible to break into the sect's ancestral hall, but doing so would be equivalent to completely breaking off relations with Taicang Mountain. As the largest sect in the Suzaku Continent, Taicang Mountain still had some background. If the sect's Divine Transformation cultivators were alarmed, it would be a bit difficult to end.

Liu Yishu looked annoyed and somewhat unhappy.

"What's wrong?" Xu Weichen keenly noticed that his little disciple was in a bad mood.

"I was thinking that if there was a sect trial, I could shine in it and make all the cultivators in Taicang Mountain envy my master for having a disciple with excellent talent!"

"Haha..." Xu Weichen couldn't help laughing, the haze in his heart was swept away, and he rarely made a joke, "Xiaoshu is wrong, it is precisely because you are so talented that I should hide you from them, otherwise what if they want to snatch you away?"

"It doesn't matter, I only like Master, and no one can take him away from me!" Liu Yishu said firmly.

Xu Weichen was stunned when he heard this. If Liu Yishu was a child, saying such words would only comfort him, but he was an adult. It felt a little weird for an adult to say the word "like" so easily, especially when he could see the calm expression of his little disciple when he said this through the veil. It was so natural that the weird emotion in his heart became more obvious.

He suddenly remembered that from the very beginning, the young apprentice had been very intimate and natural towards him, as if they were not strangers who had never met before, but had known each other for a long time and were meeting again after a long separation.

He thought about how his young disciple had helped him block lightning strikes, searched for spiritual veins, and given him the Water Spirit Pearl. Each and every one of these things seemed unusual.

The appearance of the young apprentice changed his predetermined fate and gave him infinite possibilities in life. For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly had an inexplicable thought that the young apprentice came for him.

This sudden thought made his heart beat faster, and he couldn't help but tighten his hand holding that of his little disciple.

"Master, what's wrong?" Liu Yishu asked puzzledly.

"It's okay, let's go up the mountain quickly!" Xu Weichen said as he half-held the person in his arms, and with one step, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the sect.

On the top of the mountain towering into the clouds, it is difficult for mortals to reach, but there stands a bluestone boundary marker. On the marker are written three ancient and vigorous large characters [Taicang Mountain], like silver hooks and iron paintings, three points deep into the stone.

These three words were written by Cang Xuan, the first master who founded Taicang Mountain. It is said that they contain his understanding of the Tao.

Taicang Mountain was established more than 3,000 years ago. It is said that the Suzaku Continent 3,000 years ago was rich in spiritual energy and was the best time for cultivating immortals. There were gods everywhere and Nascent Souls were as numerous as dogs. Before Cang Xuan's death, his cultivation had reached the tribulation period and he was only one step away from ascending to become an immortal.

Xu Weichen looked at the three words. After his cultivation level was improved, his perception of these three words was very different. In the past, when he looked at these three words, it was as if he was facing a towering and unshakable mountain, a surging and never-ending sea, thick and deep, but now he felt a kind of indomitable spirit from these three words.

Compared with the mountains and seas, humans are so small and insignificant, but the Taoist's figure facing the mountains and seas is so tall and straight, as if it is more indestructible than the mountains and seas!

Xu Weichen understood that this was Cang Xuan's perception of the world when he was in the Nascent Soul stage. When a cultivator entered the Nascent Soul stage, he began to have the power to split mountains and fill the sea, and he would not succumb to mountains and seas. I think when he reaches a higher realm, his perception of these three words will be different.

He placed his hand on the boundary monument that had stood for thousands of years and experienced wind, frost, rain and snow. He input a stream of spiritual power, and a barrier instantly appeared on the cliff in front of the boundary monument. Inside the barrier was a towering mountain gate, magnificent and imposing.

Behind the mountain gate is a stretch of stone steps that seem to have no end. Looking up, you can vaguely see the glittering and majestic palace complex amidst the clouds and mist.

There is a mountain protection formation in Taicang Mountain. Normally, the formation is activated and ordinary people cannot find the trace of the fairy mountain. Only on the day of recruiting disciples once every ten years, the entrance of the formation will be opened and the 9,999-step Road of Self-Searching will appear in front of the world. Only those who have walked the Road of Self-Searching will be qualified to become a disciple of Taicang Mountain.

However, as long as one embarks on the path of cultivation and touches the boundary monument with spiritual power, the mountain gate and the road to self-examination will appear. And with the Taicang Mountain disciple token, one can directly pass through the barrier of the enchantment and enter the mountain gate.

There were disciples on duty at the mountain gate, and one of them happened to know Xu Weichen, so he hurried forward to greet him, "Greetings, Master Xu—"

Thinking of the recent rumors, he quickly changed the topic, "Greetings, Master Xu!" His attitude became even more respectful.

Upon hearing this, the others also hurried forward to salute.

Although the Yun family had just launched an attack on Taicang Mountain the day before, the news of Xu Weichen entering the Nascent Soul stage had spread throughout the sect several days ago. As a result, everyone in the sect already knew that Xu Weichen had defied fate and changed his destiny. Not only did he not die, but he successfully advanced to a higher level. Taicang Mountain had another Nascent Soul True Lord.

Everyone in Taicang Mountain is waiting for the return of this newly promoted True Lord.
