"Me?" Facing this sudden change, Liang Yan pointed to himself with some uncertainty and asked.
"That's right, it's you! Come out." The man in Tsing Yi repeated again.
This time Liang Yan nodded, quickly walked out of the crowd and came to the two people.
"Follow this senior brother, a senior wants to see you!" The Taoist Priest in Qingyi said and looked Liang Yan up and down again, looking very interested.
Liang Yan felt a sense of vigilance in his heart and asked cautiously: "Oh? I'm just a monk at the third level of Qi training. I wonder which senior wants to meet me?"
"Why are you asking so many questions? You will know when you get there." The Taoist priest in green waved his hand, obviously not wanting to say more.
"That's weird!" Liang Yan thought to himself.
Although he was born in the Yue Kingdom, he was just an ordinary mortal before and had never had contact with anyone in the Yue Kingdom's cultivation world. Of course, except for Chen Lin, who was beaten to death by the old monk seven years ago.
"Could he be an old friend of the Lu family?"
Liang Yan thought about it and could only guess this possibility. Although Lu Chen himself was a made-up character, on the surface he was born in the Lu family. There were seniors in the Yungang Sect who had an old relationship with the Lu family.
possible things.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan no longer hesitated, but cupped his hands and said, "Please lead the way!"
The man in soap robe and Taoist uniform nodded without saying a word, but turned around and walked ahead.
Liang Yan followed closely, and the two of them walked out of the inner hall, then out of the stone hall, and finally walked up the winding mountain road to the Immortal Peak.
After another time of burning incense, the man leading the way suddenly turned around and left the mountain road and walked towards the secluded woods. Although Liang Yan was confused, he still followed him and walked into the woods together.
"arrive!"
The man in soap robe suddenly stopped and pointed to a willow tree in front of him.
"What? That senior asked me to meet here?" Liang Yan asked with some confusion.
Such a random place was different from what he imagined.
The man in soap robe nodded and said: "He only said that he would wait here, and I don't know anything else. In short, I have brought him to the place, so I will leave first."
As he spoke, he hugged Liang Yan, turned around and left out of the woods.
"I don't know what this senior has to do with the Lu family. I hope we are friends rather than enemies, but please don't let me take the blame for the Lu family!" Liang Yan thought to himself.
Just when he was fuming, he suddenly heard a sharp shout from behind him:
"Liang Yan is bold and dares to conceal his identity and deceive the emperor. It is truly an unpardonable crime!"
This shout was like a thunderbolt from the blue, causing a storm in Liang Yan's heart.
"What's wrong, someone here actually recognizes me!"
Liang Yan didn't have time to think too much. He turned around and jumped several feet away. At the same time, he turned his head to look at the source of the sound.
I saw someone appear under the willow tree at some point. This man was over fifty years old, with short hair and a beard, tall and burly, with lean and capable bones. He was wearing a martial arts uniform, and he looked like a secular warrior.
"It's you!" Liang Yan exclaimed in shock.
This person turned out to be the mysterious old man who kicked Li Xiaosong in Luo City that day!
"Hehe, you look like a naughty boy. I didn't expect you to be so timid, but I'll scare you and see what you become!" the old man said jokingly, with his hands behind his back and a half-smiling expression on his face.
After hearing what he said, Liang Yan realized that he was currently hunched over, with one hand on the scabbard at his waist, like a frightened bird, ready to run away at any time.
He stood up straight, touched his nose with some embarrassment and said: "Senior has great magical powers, so he will not be in trouble with a junior like me."
"Hmph! As far as I know, you were originally an abandoned disciple of Yixing Pavilion. Why do you want to join our Yungang Sect now?"
Liang Yan glanced at him and knew that the more he concealed this person, the more serious the consequences would be, so he had to tell him everything that happened in Yixing Pavilion.
However, he still concealed the matter about the Tianji Pearl. He only said that the fight with Zhuo Bufan triggered the restriction left by the ancestor, and he fell into a coma and had no idea what happened next.
"So, Zhuo Bufan had an ulterior motive and wanted to use you to seize the treasure, but in the end he was killed by the restriction left by the ancestor?" the old man asked with a frown.
"Everything the junior said is true. Yixing Pavilion indiscriminately condemned the junior. In the end, he only managed to escape with the help of a senior."
After hearing this, the old man nodded slightly and stopped talking for a while. Instead, he stood there and meditated.
When Liang Yan saw that he was silent, he did not dare to leave without authorization, so he could only stand with him in the forest.
After a while, the old man was the first to break the silence and just listen to him: "That's all, I won't ask any more questions about the past. Now I just ask you, are you willing to join me and become my seventeenth direct disciple?"
?”
"What?"
Liang Yan rubbed his ears, almost thinking he heard wrongly.
"Senior, are you going to accept this boy as your disciple?"
"That's right, my Taoist name is 'Yu Xuanji', and he is the peak master of Guanyu Peak of Yungang Sect. I won't humiliate you, right?" the old man said calmly.
"Eight Peak Masters!"
Liang Yan was shocked. He had already learned from the Lu family before coming here that there were eight peaks in the Yungang Sect. The masters of each peak were all Jindan cultivators. Their status in the Yungang Sect was comparable to that of Yixing Pavilion.
The Lord has to go one level higher.
After all, the Yungang Sect does not have a cabinet of elders that overrides the Tao masters. Major decisions are usually made jointly by the sect master and the peak masters.
Except for a few old immortals who have been in seclusion for many years and whose cultivation has broken through the golden elixir, the master of Yifeng is already second only to the sect master in status.
Liang Yan was shocked and confused, and couldn't help but ask: "Please forgive me for talking too much, my junior's qualifications are mediocre, and my senior and I are not close relatives, so how could you think of accepting this young man as your disciple?"
After hearing this, Yu Xuanji said angrily: "You lazy boy, when others hear my name, they immediately kneel down and become my disciples, wishing they could join me right away. It would be better for you to ask this and that, at such a young age,
Why are you so cautious?"
A wry smile appeared on Liang Yan's lips and he said: "This kid has encountered strange things in recent years. If he hadn't been careful, he would have turned into a cup of loess long ago."
"That's it!"
Yu Xuanji waved his hand and said: "It's okay to tell you that I have never had a sword cultivator disciple. Although you are not qualified enough to practice swordsmanship, you are quite talented in sword cultivation. The last time I met you briefly, I was surprised by you.
At such a young age, he can actually develop sword energy within his body, which is the first person I have seen in hundreds of years!"
"It is extremely difficult to improve in swordsmanship. There is no sect specializing in swordsmanship among the five southern kingdoms. If you join my sect and make good use of resources to practice, you may not be able to become famous in the future!"
