The setting sun was like blood, and an old man and a young man stood on the top of the mountain.
"What do you think, fellow Taoist?" the young man asked.
"Hey, it's hateful, but it's also a pity!" The old man shook his head gently and sighed.
Seeing this, the young man smiled slightly, stopped talking, and looked at the rolling waves of people, with clusters of blood splashing.
These two people were Yin Xiuxuan and Lao Dao who disappeared from the Eighteen Alliances.
When he first saw the Taoist from that peak, Yin Xiuxuan could tell that this person was an immortal cultivator. Although he didn't know his qualifications, it was bad to think about it, otherwise he wouldn't be at the first level of Qi training at his age.
Mr. Su was not as good as him. Yin Xiuxuan knew that there must be a sect behind these immortal cultivators. Although he was not a sect, he was at least a casual cultivator, otherwise he would not even be able to get started.
Yin Xiuxuan's original intention was to follow the clues and find the master behind him. If he could solve it, he would use thunderous means. If not, he would think of other methods. At most, it would be to move the people close to him elsewhere, and then he would have no control over the Black Water Sect's affairs.
Unexpectedly, when they met for the first time, Yin Xiuxuan heard that conversation, his mind changed, and he couldn't help but come up with an idea. He secretly shocked the spiritual energy around him, and then he decided to go out to meet him.
Yin Xiu
Then they talked about their fate and went into the room to talk about it in depth.
Things went very smoothly after that. After the two reported their families to each other, and the old Taoist found out that Yin Xiuxuan was the Supreme Elder of the Black Water Sect, he was not surprised at all except that Yin Xiuxuan looked so young.
Because to him, all gangs are the same, and he did not agree to join the Eighteenth League as a priest or elder as Gong Haomiao said. Therefore, he believed that he had no hostile relationship with Yin Xiuxuan.
Later, when the two of them were talking, the old Taoist became furious, but it was because Yin Xiuxuan talked about Yifeng Old Taoist refining and using the ghosts.
Yin Xiuxuan thought it was a matter between his master and apprentice, so he didn't ask. Unexpectedly, the old Taoist actually told the truth. Originally, he himself was a casual cultivator who was taught by a single lineage, but unlike the supreme elders such as Heishuimen, he was protected by his master.
His power had perished long ago, and he couldn't find a suitable one, so he relied on his savings from the past to become the most orthodox casual cultivator.
However, it was difficult to continue passing on to this generation, so he had to go out to find help. When he left, he personally handed over the bottle of ghosts passed down from the previous generation to Taoist Yifeng for his protection. Although there was only one ghost in it, he was careful to proceed
, to protect yourself.
Because the old Taoist suffered a lot of blows when he was young, he was very disgusted with the matter of refining Yin Soul. Unless it was necessary, he would not hand over the Yin Soul bottle to Taoist Yifeng. When he left, he also warned him repeatedly that he must not refine Yin Soul again, but it didn't happen.
This peak Taoist still couldn't resist the temptation, so the old Taoist was furious.
Finally, Yin Xiuxuan comforted him and finally stopped. However, Yin Xiuxuan smiled bitterly in his heart and did not dare to take out his magic weapon, for fear that the old Taoist would act like a life-and-death enemy upon seeing him.
Afterwards, the two had a long talk, Yin Xiuxuan tried many times to persuade them, and the two of them swore in their hearts and made plans to determine the final fate of the eighteen alliances. Of course, the fate of Taoist Yifeng was also determined, but the two of them could not agree.
Just take action and let him fend for himself.
That's why the old Taoist sighed at the beginning. After all, he has been a master and apprentice for many years, but the cultivator has a strong mind. Regardless of whether he is a relative or a disciple, if it goes against his own will and does not suit his own thoughts, just give up if you should!
When Yin Xiuxuan saw this, he knew that he was wrong and couldn't be so indifferent. However, this matter was in his heart, so he just wanted to think about it.
Three days later, the main personnel of Heishuimen returned to the county, leaving some manpower to sweep the entire Taiyang County.
In Heishui Gate, Sima Mingde rewarded his merits. The first meritorious service was given to Wang Gang, the chief deacon of the Iron Cavalry Hall. Since Yuan Lang, one of the three original deputy hall masters, died on the battlefield, he was specially appointed as the deputy hall master of the Iron Cavalry Hall. Although Yuan Lang was the deputy hall master.
The description of the Hall Master's death in battle was very vague, but no one raised any objection.
Then Yan Bingxin, the deputy master of the alchemy hall, penetrated into the Eighteen Leagues, found out the secrets, and rewarded countless money and orders to temporarily take charge of the alchemy room and mining affairs. He can be regarded as the first deputy master of the alchemy hall...
After a while of rewards, the morale of the whole Black Water Sect was high. Even Jian Lianyun was promoted to the position of Archdeacon because of his merits in reporting the news. Although his martial arts skills were still a little lacking, such a young Archdeacon was enough to be envied by many disciples.
It's endless. Among Wang Gang's four brothers, the other three were also useful in battle, and each of them was given a place to be recommended to the inner sect.
Of course, Yin Xiuxuan did not show up. For him, what else could he receive from the Black Water Sect?
Afterwards, the highest level of Black Water Sect, the heads of various halls, and people above the deputy sect master level held a private meeting, and the contents of this meeting were indeed not known to others.
Ten days later, in the private room on the highest floor of Qifeng Tower in Taiyang County City, all the people closest to and related to Yin Xiuxuan at Heishui Gate gathered together.
The visitors include Wei Jiang, Liu Ying, Shangguan Wuwei, Wang Gang, Yan Bingxin, Deacon Wu and others. They were all informed by Yin Xiuxuan the day before and came here today. When they came here, after getting together
, then I felt that this matter was not like drinking in the past.
Suddenly, the door creaked and opened from the outside. Everyone thought it was Yin Xiuxuan who had arrived, so they looked towards the door. Unexpectedly, it was not Yin Xiuxuan who appeared, but an old Taoist with white hair and a childish face.
The old Taoist smiled warmly at everyone, and everyone felt warm all over their bodies.
"The old Taoist is here to say goodbye to you all on behalf of fellow Taoist Yin!"
"What!" Everyone was shocked. Wei Jiang's face was calm but seemed a little sad.
"Here is a letter from fellow Taoist Yin. You can take it and read it!" As he said, the old Taoist handed over a letter. Wei Jiang was the only one in the audience who went to pick it up.
"Teacher Wu, Brother Wang, Sister-in-law, Xiao Weizi, younger brother and sister Liu Ying, and Senior Brother Shangguan, we see each other as if we have met each other.
Yin Xiuxuan has been in Heishuimen for more than eight years. He has been looked after by all of you during his journey. He feels deeply that he has no repayment, which is a pity.
…
However, Yin Xiuxuan must leave now in order to pursue what is in his heart. He cannot bear to say goodbye, so he wrote this in his handwriting. I hope you will take it seriously.
Taoist friend Shouyan is one of my fellow Taoists, and he is a very kind person. I have made an appointment with him in advance. If you encounter any difficulties, you can turn to him and he will get the solution!
I pay my respects to Yin Xiuxuan again, and I hope you will cherish it."
After Wei Jiang finished reading, although everyone present had different expressions, they all felt reluctant to give up.
"Wei Jiang would like to thank Taoist Priest Shoyan for summoning us!"
The old Taoist Shouyan waved his hand, "Fellow Daoist Yin mentioned it in the letter. If you have anything to do, you can come to me. Each of you will receive a token. You can search for it in the inner courtyard of the Black Water Gate Trial Mountain." He waved his sleeves and released it.
Here are several black tokens with gold edges.
After saying that, he smiled and left, leaving a group of people here, not knowing what to do.
"It turned out to be the Supreme Elder's order!" Deacon Wu took a token and exclaimed.
"Yes, Brother Yin is not even an elder. He has his own pursuits." After saying that, Wei Jiang and Liu Ying each took a piece and walked out the door. Wang Gang looked at Yan Bingxin beside him.
, nodded firmly, as if making a promise. The two of them each took a token and went out. Shangguan Wuwei also listened to their conversation and understood a lot, and picked up a token.
left.
…
Outside the city of Taiyang County, a figure in black armor looked back at the familiar city, moved his lips slightly, said something, turned around and turned into a flowing shadow, disappearing from the place.
The wind was howling, as if it was chanting some words.
"...It's better to leave...It's better to leave..."
