After the grand foundation-building wedding banquet, Xuanyang Sect returned to its normal time. Each disciple performed his duties and carefully managed Xuanyang Sect's three-acre land...
Water flows eastward, and leaves fall one after another.
After Bai Qingzhou returned to the mountain gate, he took over the affairs of the deacon again and started teaching again.
And since he was promoted to the foundation building stage, more and more students came to attend the class. The class that originally had only a dozen disciples turned into more than 20 disciples, including many disciples in the sect who had already felt that the avenue was hopeless. They wanted to
Under Bai Qingzhou's guidance, he broke through the current level and reached a new level.
But unfortunately, Bai Qingzhou could not help them break through the bottleneck. After three months of listening, everyone felt hopeless and left again to start busy with their own affairs.
The more than ten people left behind had already understood many things clearly after long-term study. In the end, Bai Qingzhou had nothing to teach him. In the fourth month, he officially announced that they would study by themselves in the future.
, no longer formally taught.
Since then, Bai Qingzhou's life has returned to peace.
Since he was promoted to Foundation Establishment, according to the sect's regulations, he also officially became an elder.
After becoming an elder in the sect, you no longer need to live in a common living area among disciples, and can open an independent cave anywhere in the sect.
So Bai Qingzhou took time to find a good place in the forest behind the mountain. After hiring some handymen to help with some simple decoration, he officially moved in.
From then on, he meditated in the back mountain every day and began to learn the newly acquired "Fire Sun Sword Technique" to strengthen his body.
In his spare time, he would also practice "Piao Miao Sword Manual". After a period of serious study, he finally mastered all the eighteen sword moves in "Piao Miao Sword Manual", and his swordsmanship strength once again reached a new level.
.
I spend every day in fullness, constantly improving my own strength. Time keeps passing by like light sand on my fingertips. Nine months have passed in the blink of an eye.
This day.
Bai Qingzhou stared into the distance, and the departing figures of He Zuo and He Li were still close in front of him.
"Maybe it's really suitable..." Bai Qingzhou murmured to himself.
The two of them came over and talked to him just now, which made him think deeply.
Before he could think about it, a piercing sound suddenly sounded in the sky, and Bai Qingzhou looked up.
I saw a woman wearing a white robe and skin as smooth as gel slowly descending from the sky.
"Senior sister." Bai Qingzhou raised his hand and said hello.
The person coming was none other than Zhang Zhiyan.
Zhang Zhiyan's small courtyard is not far from here. After Bai Qingzhou moved here, the two of them visited frequently, talking about Taoism and sharing their cultivation experiences.
"I thought I saw the He family siblings just now. They came to play with you?" Zhang Zhiyan walked to the stone chair and sat down familiarly, and asked lightly.
Hearing Zhang Zhiyan's question, Bai Qingzhou once again remembered what the two of them had said just now, paused, and said, "No, they came here this time and told me something serious."
"What's the matter?"
Bai Qingzhou said lightly: "They said they wanted to leave Xuanyang Gate..."
Zhang Zhiyan looked slightly surprised and asked quickly: "Leave? Why did Hao Duanduan say that he wanted to leave? Is it possible that there are disciples in the sect who are bullying the two of them?"
"No..." Bai Qingzhou shook his head and said slowly: "Senior sister, do you know that in fact, the two of them are not disciples of our sect, but disciples of the Tianshi Sect far away in Chuzhou?"
"Of course I know this. The two of them were brought here by Master Li's friends. Later, when the monk went out with Master Li, he unfortunately fell into the wild with Master Li, so they stayed in our sect.
"
"Yes." Bai Qingzhou nodded slowly and sighed: "So they told me more than once that they want to leave Xuanyang Sect and return to Chuzhou Tianshi Sect."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhiyan looked a little angry and said angrily: "Our Xuanyang Sect has taken care of them for free for several years, and they are so eager to go back? Leave my Xuanyang Sect?"
"There is no way..." Bai Qingzhou looked helpless, "After all, the two of them are still disciples of the Tianshi Sect, and it is normal for them to want to go back."
Zhang Zhiyan remained silent.
Bai Qingzhou continued: "Furthermore, the exercises they practiced can only be practiced to the early stage of Qi Refining. Now that they have reached the third level of Qi Refining, they need to return to the door to change their exercises and continue practicing."
"Kung Fu? This... they can choose other skills to practice. Why do they need to go back to the door?" Zhang Zhiyan asked in confusion.
"The two of them once told me that their introductory exercises and follow-up exercises are a complete set. They cannot change the exercises at will in the middle, otherwise they will easily go crazy."
"So that's what happened..." Zhang Zhiyan shook her head and said helplessly: "That's all...the two of them have not forgotten their roots. Their quality is still good. It's just a pity that our Xuanyang Sect is missing two monks."
"This matter cannot be forced." Bai Qingzhou looked up at the sky and continued to say slowly: "And today, they came over and told me about this matter again."
"Wait a minute," Zhang Zhiyan paused and asked quickly, "Do they want to return to the Tianshi Sect now?"
Bai Qingzhou stood up, took two steps, and said, "That's it. They plan to leave Xuanyang Sect and return to Tianshi Sect in a few days."
"However, the road between Lizhou and Chuzhou is long and requires crossing several areas, as well as traveling across states. The journey is extremely difficult. The two of them are at the third level of Qi Refining..."
After saying this, Zhang Zhiyan stood up suddenly and stared at Bai Qingzhou, "Junior Brother Bai! They want you to send them back?!"
Bai Qingzhou nodded lightly and said calmly: "They have talked to me about this many times, and it is indeed this idea."
He Zuo and He Li knew Bai Qingzhou very well. They had always been very attached to Bai Qingzhou in the mountain gate and trusted him very much, so the two of them wanted to ask Bai Qingzhou to send them back.
"Then what do you think?" Zhang Zhiyan looked serious.
Bai Qingzhou said solemnly: "I should have done this in the first place."
"Why?"
"Because I once promised Senior Qin..."
Bai Qingzhou couldn't help but recall the scenes from that year...
On that day, Bai Qingzhou, He Zuo, He Li, and Chen Lin entered the back mountain in order to find the lost big yellow dog.
There, they happened to meet Li Yuyun and others.
At that time, Li Yuyun and Qin Xiu came together to look for Han Aoyu, planning to explore the secret realm.
In the last conversation that day, Qin Xiu asked Bai Qingzhou to take good care of He Zuo and He Li, and Bai Qingzhou readily agreed.
Who would have known that that meeting would last forever, and both Li Yuyun and Qin Xiu would never come back...
Bai Qingzhou looked into the distance and said slowly: "I promised Senior Qin...I can't break my promise to others."
