Picked up a little dumb on the side of the road

The four-year Wendao Conference is said to be aimed at gathering hundreds of families of immortal sects, exchanging their experiences in asking and exchanging martial arts.

In the last questioning conference, Wei Xun had just started. Although it can't be said that his spiritual power is low, he was indeed young and inexperienced. Xu Qingyan didn't bring him along.

Now that the trip is finally taking place, Wei Xun actually still has a little yearning for it.

The conference is divided into two parts, the first is a clear discussion meeting between various sects, tasting fragrant tea, and discussing the Tao.The highlight is the second day's sword chasing meeting, where disciples of the same generation from the major sects compare swords and learn from each other to improve together.

Although Wei Xun looks old and obedient, not like a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses, but after all, he is only eighteen or nineteen years old, and his curiosity and thirst for knowledge are still there.He was wholeheartedly looking forward to listening to the elders and sages discussing the Tao, especially looking forward to watching the legendary demeanor of the sons of the Min'an School of Daiyu Mountain.

But the reality is quite different.

The so-called sitting and discussing the Tao is just a hypocritical greeting between a bunch of leaders.

Small factions with little strength are busy sycophanting big factions of high schools, and big factions of wealthy and powerful schools are busy comparing each other, making it very lively.

There was just a burst of flattery here, and it was a lot of ridicule when they found an opportunity there.

After going back and forth like this, Wei Xun could see the inside path, but it didn't matter, he was very clear about the worldly affairs.

Although I didn't see the sitting and talking in my imagination, I was inevitably disappointed, but I never forgot to smile and nod my head, showing all the courtesy.

Fortunately, he has a smiling face, and the corners of his mouth naturally have a slightly upturned, beautiful arc, so he doesn't need to make any special expressions, and it always makes people feel that there is a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Otherwise, after a day of this fake smile, the face will be crooked.

"Master Xu is being polite!"

"Master Xue is polite!"

"This is your close disciple, looking for your son? You have heard of your name for a long time! Today I saw that it is Zhilan Yushu, the head of Xu taught you well, hahaha..."

Because of Wei Xun's reputation in the past two years, Xu Qingyan, who used to be able to follow others and flatter him but never get close, was treated by many people for the first time. Although he didn't like Wei Xun, this simple flattery, But it is also very useful.

"Master Xue has won the prize, the young apprentice is not talented, but he has achieved a little, a little success! Hahaha..." Xu Qingyan turned to look at Wei Xun after saying that, and said with the majesty of a master: "I haven't seen Xue Master."

Wei Xun hurried forward, and respectfully saluted a junior, "Wei Xun, the seventh disciple under the head of the Qinggang Sect in Xialin Qingshan, has met head Xue."

Xu Qingyan has never been worried about etiquette, and Wei Xun is the most considerate in this regard.It's just that the more people compliment him, the more he is benefited now, but he is also more worried about tomorrow's sword-chasing meeting.

No matter how unwilling he was to admit it, he knew that anyone who saw him, Xu Qingyan saw him, was nothing more than looking at Wei Xun.

How many eyes are staring at Wei Xun today, and how many people will come to the Sword Chasing Meeting tomorrow with bad intentions.He might not have to worry about Wei Xun's spiritual strength, most of the people who want to beat him have given up tomorrow's competition.

But he won't win tomorrow's competition, he has no idea.

The sword-chasing meeting is said to be a competition between peers, but in fact it mainly refers to the generation of brothers Wei Xun.

In the previous generation, if it wasn't for the head of the seat, they would have already been well-known in the world, and those who were not good enough were too old to fight anymore; in the next generation, most of them were either ignorant children or ignorant teenagers.

Wei Xun is a special case. In terms of age, he is no more than two years older than his senior disciples. Since he is the master's closed apprentice, he ranks seventh, and the youngest sixth senior brother must be ten years and eight years older than him. age.

Therefore, although Wei Xun is young, his seniority is high.

At that time, Xu Qingyan was busy living in the precarious Qinggang sect, struggling to survive the wind and rain. As he got older, his cultivation stagnated, and his strength became more and more inadequate. In fact, it had been many years since he stopped accepting disciples.

Seeing that in two years, his eldest apprentice will also reach the age to accept the first disciple, but by chance, he meets the young Wei Xun.

He has a good eye, and he can see at a glance that Wei Xun is a child full of aura. His first disciple has not yet reached the age of being the first disciple, but he himself is reluctant to give up such an opportunity, so he gritted his teeth at Wei Xun's plea. Xun entered the door and announced that this was his closed disciple, ranked seventh.

At that time, I only thought that this son's cultivation might surpass himself and his first disciple, and I hoped that he could carry forward the Qinggang sect a little bit.

But he never expected that Wei Xun would become No.1 since the founding of the sect.

Now I feel a little regret——

I always feel that my temple is too small to accommodate this big Bodhisattva.

Besides, this sword-chasing meeting is true to compare swords, but the purpose is not to make progress together.

The final contest will usually be the first disciple of the head of the sect, plus a few favorite disciples of the faction.

Generally, those who win the championship will not participate again. The reason is very simple. Since they have already established their names in the world, it would be self-degrading to share the stage with these unknown people.

The Sword Chasing Club is an opportunity for practitioners to stand out and become famous among the hundreds of families of the immortal sect, and it is also a battle for the status of each sect in the hundreds of families of the immortal sect.

In the next few years, how many disciples, foreign cultivators, are willing to worship under your sect?How are the territories of believers divided?

Whether life is good or not depends on watching this battle.

Of course, the disciples here are naturally not referring to those poor families, but mainly referring to those rich and famous families, where to send the children of the royal family and nobles.

There are a hundred schools of immortal sects, it is said that there are hundreds of schools, but in fact there may be thousands of sects, raising so many disciples outside cultivation, not doing production, where does the money come from?

Helping those who seek to come to the mountain gate to accept low-level ghosts, perform rituals, and recruit a soul, it's just small, and the money is not much, but it is looked down upon by other sects.The big head is nothing more than relying on the good donations of these disciples' families, and secondly, to keep one side safe and eat this side's offerings.

This is why the Qinggang Sect has been turbulent for a hundred years.

A sect that is neither big nor small has to care about its face and its century-old reputation, but it really doesn't have the ability to compete with others.The children of rich and powerful families would not send them this little-known hill, and the wealthy cities and towns would not get their hands on them.

Although Wei Xun came out now, but the foundation in the faction is shallow, if he really competes with those high-ranking factions, he has no foundation and no family background, and the next life will be even more difficult.

It's not that everyone in the Xianmen can't lose. Counting the previous few sessions, the leader is nothing more than a disciple of several sects.But if he wants to lose to such a little-known sect as the Qinggang Sect, or to a brat of Wei Xun's age, it will be considered a loss of face.

This is the foundation of a sect, and it cannot be achieved overnight by one person.

If those high-ranking sects have a long history, are numerous and powerful, and have great wealth and career, if they really want to confront you, what can Wei Xun's spiritual power and cultivation base do?

Killing the fairy mountain, slaughtering the whole family, opening up the frontier and expanding the land, eating away at the whale?

Then what?Instantly become a devil?

It can be seen that Wei Xun's spiritual power cultivation base cannot be used as money.Even if he, Wei Xun, has full access to his spiritual veins, a golden body, and the ability to live without food, there will always be a hundred mouths to eat in the pie.

This is what makes Xu Qingyan difficult. He has made no achievements in cultivation for most of his life. He is used to being cautious and cautious for the Qinggang Sect's century-old foundation, and he is afraid of offending others.

Wei Xun is not good, the school has no hope, but there is no hope, and he can still live as cautiously as he is now; Wei Xun is too good, what will he attract?

He was terrified.

After returning to the room, Xu Qingyan was in a good mood and saw Wei Xun who was accompanying him, so he turned sharply. Thinking of the upcoming sword-chasing meeting, he couldn't help but regret bringing him here. After making excuses and reprimanding them, the frustration was relieved a bit, and everyone was dismissed and rested.

The second day's Sword Chasing Meeting started with no difference from the previous ones, there was only one episode, the Min'an faction announced that it would not send disciples to participate in this year's Sword Chasing Meeting.

After everyone pretended to express regret and sighed, they were overjoyed.

The Min'an sect is the largest sect in the celestial sect, half of the nine states in the world are in its hands, and half of the famous officials of the celestial sect are out of its sect.Isn't it a godsend opportunity to withdraw from the competition this year?

The down-and-out sects put on airs and go through the motions; the rich and powerful sects compete with each other, and I will appear on the stage after you sing.

Although Xu Qingyan was eager to try, his cautious temper kept him from letting Wei Xun play.

Wei Xun was still serving Xu Qingyan with all manners of courtesy, watching the senior brothers lose the battle in a short time, his eyes were as usual.

During the period, Xu Qingyan also perfunctorily asked his opinion, Wei Xun only respectfully said: "The disciple is still young, and his qualifications are still inexperienced, and he has no face to stand shoulder to shoulder with the senior brothers. I hope to return to the mountain gate to practice more diligently, and I will not embarrass the master in the future. "

It was also in line with Xu Qingyan's wishes.

In fact, for someone like Wei Xun who is well versed in the world and has an exquisite mind, regarding the farce that night in the inn - "restraint and etiquette, forbearance and self-restraint"; the meaning of the master is already too obvious to him.

As usual, this year's Sword Chasing Meeting was presided over by Minzhong, the second disciple of the head of the Min'an faction, but everyone thought that the leader had already been decided, and Xu Qingyan felt that he had finally passed the level safely, and when Minzhong was about to announce the end of the Sword Chasing Meeting according to the procedure, Lian, the first disciple of the Min'an Sect, suddenly appeared on the high platform.

The audience was stunned.

Lian is the first disciple of the head of the Min'an sect, but few people present have witnessed his true face.

Mr. Lian began to take charge of the affairs of the faction after he won the championship in the Sword Chasing Association decades ago, but soon, the second junior brother Lianzhong won the first place in the Sword Chasing Association, and the affairs of the faction were gradually handed over to this second junior brother.

Lian gradually receded, and she never showed her face in the arena in the past ten years.

The only way out of the Min'an Party is that the master practiced in seclusion, and the first disciple should serve around him.

Now as soon as he appeared, everyone couldn't help but realize that although this person's facial features were not clear, his appearance and figure were no more than 27 or [-] to the left.

Wearing a green shirt, without a sword on his body, he only held an ordinary peach silk and bamboo folding fan with a purple fan pendant hanging in his hand.At first glance, he looks like a refined scholar.

But if you think about it carefully, before winning the first prize, you already have all the spiritual veins, so the life span of people with such a cultivation level is much longer than that of ordinary people.What's more, after all these years, it's no surprise that he might have cultivated a golden body and be immortal.

"My sympathy, everyone is polite."

Lian opened his mouth, it seemed to be whispering softly, but the words were sonorous, and there was not much emotion; although it was a salute, it also had a dignified appearance.

"I heard that recently there was a little prince from Wei Xun, who was not as weak as the crown, and had just achieved great success, and no one has surpassed him in a hundred years. The family teacher is very happy, and I also want to make friends with the Min'an sect. Honored to be taught by Young Master Xun?"
