In the Taoist temple, the atmosphere between Immortal Shui Jing and Ye Shiqing seemed to be at loggerheads.
Creak!
Just then, the door of the Taoist temple was pushed open as a middle-aged Taoist strode into the temple and said to Ye Shiqing with a smile, "Mr. Ye, since you've come to Qingcheng Mountain, why don't you come to the front of the mountain for a chat?"
"Oh, it's Daoist Hai Toad. Immortal Shui Jing is an old friend of the Ye Family's predecessor, so I came to pay a visit first. " Ye Shiqing said with a smile. He knew that the identity of this Daoist Hai Chan was not a trivial matter. This person was one of the Deputy Sect Heads of the Qingcheng School and had great influence in the Qingcheng School. Moreover, Daoist Hai Toad had been working to expand the power of Qingcheng Sect and could be regarded as the representative of the "radical" faction in the sect.
"It turns out that Mr. Ye and Martial Uncle Shui Jing are familiar with each other." In fact, Daoist Hai Toad had already sensed the tension between Ye Shiqing and Immortal Shui Jing, but he was trying to repair the relationship between the two. "Old Mister Ye, you didn't come here just to enjoy the scenery, did you?"
"Of course." Ye Shiqing said, "There's a rumor among the people — Daoist Qingcheng Mountain. Now that the Ye Family is in some trouble, I also want to ask about the future 'Dao' of the Ye Family in Qingcheng Mountain, so I found Immortal Shui Jing. However, it's a pity that Immortal Shui Jing refused to enter the Jianghu again. "
"Mr. Ye, you may not know this, but Martial Uncle is devoted to cultivation and doesn't care much about worldly affairs. Of course, you don't have to be disappointed. I know the purpose of your visit. It's because the Ye Family lost control of Wolong Hall, right? "
"Since Daoist Hai Toad knows, then I'll say it clearly." Ye Shiqing said, "We lost this battle unjustly. With all due respect, since your Qingcheng Sect promised to help us, why did you retreat? Are you afraid of the Tangmen? "
"In terms of status in the Jianghu, our Qingcheng Sect is above the Tangmen. Why would we be afraid of the Tangmen?" Daoist Hai Toad snorted. "Do you think we don't want to obliterate the descendants of the Lu Family in exchange for the benefits promised by the Ye Family? Who would have thought that the expert we sent would be seriously injured? When he was sent back to the Qingcheng Sect, he was already on the verge of death. Because of this matter, the Sect Leader is very angry. "
"Since the Qingcheng Faction is furious, why did they let Lu Qingshan and his gang continue to be arrogant?" Ye Shiqing asked.
"First of all, Six Fan School is involved in this matter, so we can't act rashly now. Secondly, there is a man named Qin Lang beside Lu Qingshan. This man's origin is unknown, but he has injured two of our Qingcheng School's experts in a very strange way. Now, Sect Leader and some Elders are looking for clues, hoping to figure out this boy's origin, and then find a way to kill him! "Taoist Hai Chan said to Ye Shiqing.
"So what do you mean that your Qingcheng School can't do anything at the moment?" Ye Shiqing asked.
"Mr. Ye, don't be too hasty." Daoist Hai Toad continued, "Dealing with the descendants of the Lu Family is just a small matter. You don't have to trouble Martial Uncle Shui Jing with this matter, just leave it to me. However, in order to deal with the descendant of the Lu Clan, he had to deal with that brat named Qin Lang first. Mr. Ye, don't be too hasty. "
"Daoist Hai Chan, Wolong Hall is very important to our Ye Clan!" Ye Shiqing explained.
"I know that. But for now, we can only wait for the Sect Leader's order. " Daoist Hai Chan said, "I can guarantee you that after we deal with that brat, we will definitely clean up the descendants of the Lu Clan, and Wolong Hall will definitely return to the hands of your Ye Clan. What do you think?"
Ye Shiqing pondered for a moment and said, "Good! Since Daoist Hai Chan has said so, I'll wait for the good news! "
Then, Ye Shiqing said to Immortal Shui Jing, "Immortal, sorry to disturb you."
Daoist Shui Jing snorted and ignored Ye Shiqing.
Daoist Hai Toad sent Ye Shiqing out of the Taoist temple and then chatted for a while outside. Then, he returned to the temple and said to Daoist Shui Jing, "You don't have to worry, Martial Uncle. I'll return the favor to the Ye family for you. From now on, the Ye Clan won't bother you anymore. "
"What do you want from me, Hai Chan?" Immortal Shui Jing asked in a tone that seemed to know nothing.
"Martial Uncle, you have a bright Taoist Heart. You should know what I want."
"I know. Three years later, the Sect Leader will retire as the Supreme Elder, and you want me to support you as the Sect Leader." Immortal Shui Jing understood Daoist Hai Chan's intention.
"Martial Uncle is really brilliant!" Daoist Hai Chan laughed and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Martial Uncle when the time comes."
"Well, since you've returned the favor to the Ye Clan for me, I'll reveal some secrets to you." Immortal Shui Jing said seriously, "Hai Chan, you'd better end your relationship with the Ye Clan as soon as possible."
"Oh? Why? " Daoist Hai Chan was puzzled, but he knew that his Martial Uncle was good at divination, so he should not have said this without thinking.
"The Ye Clan's destiny is coming to an end." Immortal Shui Jing revealed the secrets of heaven.
"What? No way?" Daoist Hai Chan was puzzled, "Martial Uncle, are you sure you're not mistaken? Although the Ye Clan has lost for the time being, its influence in the entire Pingchuan Province is still unparalleled. Moreover, I remember you once said that the Ye Clan's ancestors were buried in a hidden dragon's cave in Pingchuan Province, so their destiny is very good, and they will prosper for a hundred years, right? "
"Yes, the old general once asked me to see the Ye Clan's ancestral grave. The Fengshui there is indeed good, and it can at least benefit the descendants for a hundred years. In fact, the Ye Clan has indeed been smooth sailing for the past few decades. However, the Ye Clan's destiny has begun to weaken. Today, I've seen Ye Shiqing's physiognomy, and I'm even more certain of this. "
"Since you previously believed that it can at least benefit the descendants for a hundred years, why is the Ye Clan's destiny suddenly declining now?" Daoist Hai Chan was puzzled.
"Heaven is angry and the people are resentful!"
Immortal Shui Jing sighed, "Destiny is originally bestowed by heaven and earth, so it is also affected by heaven and earth. Although the Ye Clan has been extremely powerful in Pingchuan Province these years, its retrogressive behavior has aroused the anger and resentment of the people, so its destiny has naturally declined. Now, the Ye Clan has begun to decline, and judging from Ye Shiqing's physiognomy — it won't end well! "
"Martial Uncle … no wonder you refuse to have any connection with the Ye Clan. Is it also because of this?" Daoist Hai Chan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He originally thought that it would be a "good deal" to use this opportunity to win Immortal Shui Jing's support, but who knew that Immortal Shui Jing actually had such thoughts.
If Immortal Shui Jing's deduction was correct, then wouldn't Immortal Hai Chan become a shield for him?
"Hai Chan, this is not Martial Uncle scheming against you, but you scheming against Martial Uncle. That's why you have a relationship with Ye Shiqing. Now that I think about it, the reason why the Qingcheng Sect's disciples were injured before is probably related to the decline of the Ye Clan's destiny. Think about it carefully. Our Qingcheng Sect has suffered great losses in Pingchuan Province all these years, but now, things have happened one after another, and all of them are related to the Ye Clan. Hai Chan, if you want to become the Sect Master, you can't shield the Ye Clan from disasters. Otherwise, if your actions fail, it will inevitably affect your future as the Sect Master. Well, that's all Martial Uncle has to say. Think about it carefully. "After saying this, Immortal Shui Jing's whole person returned to the unfathomable feeling of the past.
