Gui Wujiu looked up and saw that there were three people on the main seat.
Among them was a middle-aged Taoist with a seven-star Taoist robe, three long beards, and a whisk in his hand. He was full of wonderful ideas and had a slightly mysterious and comfortable aura. He was Wei Che, the master of Shangxuan Palace. A hundred years ago, when Gui Wujiu was in the Yue Heng Sect, Wei Che was the master.
In office.
The one on the left is a short old Taoist, and he is Qu Xueping, the deputy master of the Heart Mirror Hall. With his cultivation level, he seems to be in the third level of Nascent Soul.
But sitting to the right of Wei Che, the master of Shangxuan Palace, is a girl wearing yellow uniforms. She seems to be about twenty-eight years old.
Although her aura is slightly weaker than the two beside her, there is an elusive and mysterious flavor in this aura.
Although Ning Suchen is extraordinary and elegant, she is soft yet strong and has a hidden edge; although Du Niansha, Lin Shuangshuang and others are bright and beautiful, they are inevitably naive. And this person in front of him is just right.
The graceful appearance of young people is outstanding, which is in harmony with the wisdom and practice. There is a balance between movement and stillness, without losing the innocence.
Combining this face with the small face he once had, Gui Wujiu smiled in his heart. As an "outsider" who was picked up by the esophageal spirit fish like himself, it was actually foreseeable that Mu Minli would grow into the calm temperament he has today.
"No blame?"
Just as Gui Wujiu was looking at the stage, a loud voice rang in his ears, almost making his eardrums vibrate.
Gui Wujiu suddenly turned his head, and it turned out to be an old man in tattered clothes, without any aura of a monk, with a yellow complexion and skinny bones, standing unknowingly on the right side of Gui Wujiu.
This old man appeared here out of thin air, but none of the Chongxiao Pavilion disciples noticed anything unusual.
Gui Wujiu was slightly startled when he saw the old face clearly. In surprise, he tried to communicate: "It turns out it's senior. Is senior finally on 'holiday'?"
Thinking secretly, Mu Minli and Ning Suchen were clearly at a shallow level, and they definitely had not reached that stage. I don't know why this old man came out.
The old man rolled his eyes, revealing a bit of cunning. He hesitated for a while, and finally said: "That's not true. It's just that I have been bored for tens of thousands of years, so I came out to get some air."
Gui Wujiu's mind changed and he said: "That is the Nine Transformations Spiritual Light Palace..."
The old man shook his head quickly and said: "Those three boys have something to do and went to the original Lu Sect. Besides, they can't control me."
Looking at Gui Wujiu, who seemed to be confused, the old man smiled and said, "Seeing that it's rare for you to come home, I want to chat with you."
Gui Wujiu calculated secretly, not knowing the depth for a while.
However, he thought very clearly that even if the Yue Heng Zong really felt that his potential had been lost, he would still send people to the Hundred Years Deserted Sea event as promised. Therefore, he did not have too many worries.
The old man smiled and said: "The road to the Zangxiang Sect is broken. Next, we have to go to the boundless local humane civilization to look for that slim chance. Isn't it too disappointing?"
Gui Wujiu said in surprise: "How do you know these seniors?"
The old man said disapprovingly: "What's so difficult about this?"
Gui Wujiu was surprised and frowned without saying a word.
The old man said with great interest: "In addition to the rhetoric that Xiao Du of the Zangxiang Sect told you, do you want to know other secrets? It is related to the nine major sects and your path?"
Gui Wujiu secretly said, "Just listen to it, it's okay." He then said, "I'm all ears."
The old man became energetic and said quickly: "There are two very important reasons why the Zangxiang Sect made this decision. Xiao Du will never tell you these two reasons. Do you know which two?"
Gui Wujiu asked casually: "Which two?"
The old man Shi Shiran said: "In fact, at the Dharma Conference four hundred years later, the probability of success of the plan they chose is much higher than you think."
Gui Wujiu asked: "How do you say this?"
The old man raised his head, glanced at Mu Yinli on the stage, and suddenly smiled and said: "Four hundred years later, Yueheng, Zangxiang, Yuanlu, and Piaomiao each have a little guy with perfect Taoism, and they will work together to divide
A share outside the top spot.”
"On the surface, if the Chenyang Sword Mountain side only needs one more person of the same level to capture one of the second and third places, they will have a sure chance of victory."
Blame it on and nod in agreement.
The old man raised his hand and said: "Actually, that's not the case. Among these four people, there are two little guys from the original Lu Sect and Piao Miao Sect. One has the same qualifications as Xiao Leng back then, and the other is taking that path... These two
In a battle, one can defeat opponents of the same level. The two of them guarding the second and third positions are actually quite secure. Unless there is another character who breaks the limit."
"How can it be so easy to have another Xuanyuan Huai?"
Gui Wujiu finally understood. Even though he was deeply involved with Zang Xiang, Yue Heng and other sects, the Zang Xiang sect still had thoughts of breaking through the bottom line. In the end, he saw that he had no other thoughts, so he gave up.
Even so, he eventually banished himself far away to the native civilization in the vast world.
Seeing the old man looking at him with a smile, Gui Wujiu asked, "Senior, I dare to ask, what is the second reason?"
The old man sighed and said: "That is, the relationship between the Zangxiang Sect and the Yueheng Sect has changed slightly compared to before. Although the alliance remains, there is a gap between the two factions."
Gui Wujiu said in astonishment: "Where to start?"
The old man shook his head and said: "The original Lu Sect is, after all, the only one among the nine sects who has perfected the Tao. For hundreds of thousands of years, the number of True Lord Realm members in the sect has been the same as that of Chenyang Sword Mountain, with the full number of nine. Furthermore, You
Huanzong should not be underestimated. When it comes time to break up, the weight of a drop of true water from Youhuanzong..."
"In short, have you ever thought about it? Although the talents of the three original Lu Zong families have withered a little, their foundation remains the same. How could they switch to the Zang Xiang Sect so easily?"
Gui Wujiu was shocked. He had never thought about this before. It was just because the game between the upper echelons of the Nine Sects was too far away from him, and many aspects were not sensitive enough.
The old man sighed and said: "Without it, Yuanlu and Zangxiang have joined forces to resist Chenyang Jianshan's expansion attempts, but Yuanlu Sect may not have its own demands."
"They suggested that the original nine-number limit in the Tiangang Law Deed should be relaxed to twelve people."
Gui Wujiu thought about it for a while and realized: "Zangxiang Sect...that's how it is."
The number of true kings in the Zangxiang Sect in the past dynasties is between seven and nine. What's more, this sect is only one step away from completing the path. Once it is completed, it will have the same status as Chenyang Jianshan and the original Lu Sect.
Gui Wujiu completely understood. The original Lu Sect's request was in perfect agreement with the Zangxiang Sect.
It was not the three former Lu Sects who came over to join the alliance, but the original Lu Sect and the Zangxiang Sect, the two sects second only to Chenyang Jianshan, who had unanimous interests and became the core of the new alliance.
Compared with the existing "Tiangang Dharma Contract" which is limited to nine people, the new contract also infringes on the interests of several sects that are far away from the completion of the Dao and are slightly weaker; but in the face of the extreme pressure of Chenyang Sword Mountain,
The Yue Heng Sect and other sects had to rely on the original Lu Sect and Zang Xiang Sect and choose the less toxic one among the two cups of poisonous wine.
The old man smiled and said: "It used to be that the Yue Heng Sect and the Zang Xiang Sect were very close. If a talented person like you joins the Zang Xiang Sect, the 'Dongmen' family would naturally be happy to see it. But now things are different. Who knows what's in your heart?"
Is there some grudge? Your value will naturally be reduced."
Gui Wujiu said thoughtfully: "What does Senior mean today..."
The old man narrowed his eyes and said: "Haha, your market price has dropped to the bottom, but I have become interested in you. Just think of it as buying low and hoarding."
There was no blame to be blamed and nothing to say in reply. What the old man said was too absurd.
The old man looked at Gui Wujiu's face and said disapprovingly: "What? Isn't it good to be honest with each other? Or are you dealing with someone like Xiao Du of the Zangxiang Sect, and you were confused by him? Xiao Du... Every move,
He must keep the possibility of maximizing interests, and refuse to give up any changes until the final moment of decision... Maybe he even thinks he has a plan."
"He was obviously ready to abandon you or even get rid of you, but how many performances did he make before and after you went to the Zangxiang Sect? If you hadn't seen through the mystery through your amazing connections, I'm afraid you would have regarded him as a person who was forced by the situation.
, a kind elder out of necessity, right?"
"That is to say, after making the decision, although in his mind, there is a high probability that you will die of old age in the vast world. But in order to preserve the chance of a slight change in the chess strategy, he still lost another piece."
"Guess, kid, which one is it?"
Gui Wujiu frowned and thought, but was at a loss.
The old man chuckled and said: "According to your original intention, will you return to Yue Heng Sect today? Will you choose to relax alone for a few days, or will you directly return to Huanghai? The day of returning to the sect happens to be the day of the true successor selection? Now you are here
How do you feel when you are at Shuanglongchi Dojo and watch the disciples of Chongxiao Pavilion shine with your "Zhixin Scroll"?"
Gui Wujiu suddenly realized that this was a deliberate creation to strengthen his emotional connection with the Yue Heng Sect.
But thinking about what the old man had just said, Gui Wujiu said: "This is just a work, and it is only related to the Yue Heng Sect, not the Zang Xiang Sect. As the senior said, there is a secret rift between the Yue Heng Sect and the Zang Xiang Sect.
, he may not benefit from doing so in the end.”
The old man said: "He naturally thought that he had enough means to tightly bind the Yue Heng Sect and the Zang Xiang Sect together."
Gui Wujiu thought about it for a long time and disagreed.
The old man said proudly: "Xiao Du is too greedy at chess. But he didn't take into account the depth of your connection, let alone that I would jump out to find trouble for him. This is not because he is not good at chess, but
If you refuse to be concise and seek victory, you will always overturn."
After saying this, the old man reached into his sleeve, took it out, and then threw something out.
Gui Wujiu caught it quickly. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was a dark mass, about the size of a thumb, with twenty-four equal facets. It weighed much less than iron, and was roughly the same as something carved from wood.
Looking at Gui Wujiu's puzzled face, the old man sneered and said, "Don't think too much. I'm very poor, but I don't have any rare treasures for you. Just take it with you. If this thing can save you one day,
Please remember to owe me a favor."
Gui Wujiu put away the treasure and was about to say thank you, when suddenly blue flames rose up from his body and scattered in all directions. It turned out that the hour had arrived. Before he could react, his figure soared into the sky and turned into dots of stars.
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred on the Shuanglong Pond. The three people on the stage, the true successor of His Highness Wuling, and the disciples of Chongxiao Pavilion, all looked up at the sky, puzzled.
Watching Gui Wujiu leave, the old man murmured: "It seems that in the near future, the ending of the Yue Heng Sect will not be good... I wonder if today's whimsical step will become the finishing touch.
