() The mountain breeze blew slowly, ruffling everyone's clothes.

There was silence in front of the mountain gate of Shangqing Palace.

All the elders looked stunned.

Headmaster Chongxu stared blankly at the giant sword stuck on the ground, stood up slowly, and looked at Liu Xia silently.

Although his face was calm, his heart was like a turbulent sea.

Although the giant sword in front of him was strange, what made him feel even more strange was Liu Xia in the distance.

Because, at the moment when he was about to mention Tian Quan, he clearly felt a spiritual power being poured into Tian Quan.

The moment this giant sword received this spiritual power, it immediately underwent drastic changes.

For most of his life, Chongxu was well-informed and knowledgeable. Even so, he still couldn't conceal his inner shock.

The Longhu Continent has a recorded history of tens of thousands of years, but he has never heard of such a unique technique.

It's a pity that Liu Xia is only at the level of spiritual master and martial artist at the moment. If he one day steps up to the level of grandmaster and reaches the true state of man-sword integration.

Then what will happen when the power of this technique is fully unleashed?

"Headmaster Liu, I lost in the Shangqing Palace. I am convinced."

Taoist Chongxu took a deep breath and said helplessly.

At that moment, everyone around them lowered their heads.

"Taoist Master Chongxu accepts the bet. So does our bet count?"

Liu Xia said with a smile.

"Of course it counts. I wonder what Master Liu wants us to do for you?"

Taoist Priest Chongxu had naturally already guessed it, so he asked deliberately.

"This matter is easy to say and difficult to say. Looking at the northwest, I am afraid that only the Shangqing Palace can do it. Does the Taoist priest know about the accident of Yunzong and the destruction of Shenjian Villa some time ago?"

Liu Xia looked at Chongxu and asked softly.

"So that's it! The veteran has heard about this matter. But it's just empty talk and all the people involved are dead. How to prove that person?"

Chongxu asked in a deep voice.

Liu Xia took out a wooden box and said: "This is the letter between Yuwen Wudi and that person. I think that Tianwang is so comprehensive that it does not omit any omissions, and is not afraid of the person denying it at all costs. This matter is not related to my meeting with Yun Zongyi.

The honor and disgrace of the sect is related to the rise and fall of the sects in the world. Please give me a lot of help, Master Chongxu."

Chongxu opened the wooden box, briefly read a few letters, and then handed them to the elders behind him for review.

Now that the matter has become a foregone conclusion, Shangqing Palace must take action, otherwise it will not only break the trust of the world, but also cause an uproar among the northwest sects.

Ever since the Jian Yunzong incident happened, many sects have become uneasy, but no one has organized them, so they are all tolerating it.

"This matter is of great importance, so I would like to ask Master Liu to stay in this palace for a few days. Let's discuss a countermeasure carefully, so as to ensure that it can be accomplished in one fell swoop. Master Liu, please rest assured that I will keep my promise to the Qing Palace and will never break my promise.

"

"Thank you very much, Taoist Master Chongxu."

Liu Xia bowed and saluted and said.

After saying this, Liu Xia turned slightly and glanced at Lingxuanzi. Lingxuanzi was suddenly startled and his face became even paler.

Liu Xia slowly walked to Tianquan and gently held the hilt of Tianquan's sword. The heavy Tianquan was easily pulled out from the ground by Liu Xia.

At that moment, the elders all around were stunned.

Because, looking at Liu Xia's appearance, it seemed effortless, as if that power had no weight at all.

"What a strength!"

"What a pervert."

"There are people outside people, and there are mountains outside mountains. Alas."

At that moment, there were whispers all around.

Liu Xia stepped towards Lingxuanzi, and Lingxuanzi stepped back using his hands and feet.

"Headmaster, please help me, please save my life!"

Lingxuanzi begged, looking extremely desperate.

"Master Liu, please..."

Chongxu still went out of his way to intercede for Lingxuanzi.

"Don't worry, I was just joking with him."

Having said this, Liu Xia put Tianquan on his shoulders, turned around and walked towards the mountain gate.

Chongxu and others all breathed a sigh of relief.

————————————————————————

"Uncle Master, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Chongxu stood respectfully on the edge of a flower garden and asked softly.

Beside the flower garden, there was an old man wearing a green robe. Although his beard and hair were white, he seemed to be several years younger than Chongxu.

But those eyes made people feel extremely calm.

It's as if I've seen all the changes in the world and seen the vicissitudes of the world, without a trace of waves, with a ray of vicissitudes, a ray of fatigue, and a ray of heavy tranquility.

The old man was holding a showerhead in one hand and a pair of scissors in the other.

In the flowerbed in front of you, the begonia flowers are in full bloom, with colorful purples and reds, and a national color and heavenly fragrance.

If you didn't know better, you would really think that this old man was just a gardener.

However, this old man is another master master of Shangqing Palace, Chongxu's uncle-Yu Zhenzi.

He is also the only senior of the Zhenzi generation in Shangqing Palace who is still alive.

"Chongxu, how many years have you been the headmaster of Shangqing Palace?"

Yuzhenzi carefully cut off a dead leaf of a crabapple with scissors and threw it to the ground.

"Reporting to Uncle Master, it has been thirty-seven years."

Chongxu replied in a low voice, wondering in his heart, why did your uncle answer the wrong question today?

"Time flies so fast."

Yuzhenzi sighed with emotion.

"Why is Uncle Master so sad? I see that Uncle Master's cultivation seems to have improved again. One day, maybe Uncle Master can really break the void and step into the divine level."

Chongxu hurriedly said broadly.

"How can a mere mortal like me be able to peep into the divine level? I have given up on extravagant hopes for a long time."

Having said this, Yuzhenzi put the showerhead on the table next to the flower garden, turned around and looked at Chongxu and said:

"Do you think Liu Xia is both good and evil, perverse, arrogant and domineering, and you are worried that helping him stand up this time will cause endless troubles in the future?"

"Uncle Master's eyes are as bright as a torch, please give me some clear instructions."

Chongxu said respectfully.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, I can clearly see the farce today. This son's future is indeed unlimited. More importantly, he has a shocking secret. This secret is related to the rise and fall of the world's sects, and is related to the dragon.

The survival of the Soul Continent. Therefore, it is our duty to help him."

Yuzhenzi said calmly.

"What?"

Chongxu was stunned and said.

"Sima Yuntu is ambitious, eager for quick success, and unscrupulous. Staying in the northwest will eventually be a hidden danger to the northwest sect. I, the Shangqing Palace, am the leader of the northwest. It is my duty to remove this person. You just let it go, there is no need to do anything.

Scruples.”

Yuzhenzi changed the topic and said loudly.

"Disciple understands that I must abide by the law."

Chongxu nodded hurriedly.

"However, in order to fight against the outside world, we must keep the inside in order. It's time for me to clean up the palace of the Qing Dynasty."

When Chongxu heard this, he was suddenly startled and said: "Uncle Master, are you saying...?"

"Yes! Just like these dead branches and leaves, if they are not cut off, they will eventually affect the appearance. If a sect wants to prosper, it must show some sharpness. If these shortcomings are not eliminated, how can it move forward?"

Yuzhenzi said in a very stern tone.

"Disciple understands."

Chongxu couldn't help but a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
