Enlightened Being Qing Wei's name might not be as famous as Zhenren Tonggu and Gu Hong Zhenren in the Upper Realm, but she was still one of the top powerhouses.
Empress Lingyao was her disciple. In terms of background, she might not be inferior to Jun Changxiao.
"That's not right!"
Zhenren Tonggu said, "That woman was once labeled as a traitor. As her disciple, why would you help the Realm Hall?"
He had interacted with Enlightened Being Qing Wei before, but it was not like what a certain reader had said, that there was a romantic story between them. They were simply outstanding geniuses of the same era.
To put it simply.
They debuted at about the same time.
Top powerhouses like Masato Kitano and Gu Hong Zhenren were also from the same generation. That was because they made a name for themselves in the Upper Realm at about the same time.
For example, Jun Changxiao.
He was very young now and had his own time. As he grew older and his cultivation base changed, he would definitely be addressed as a senior by many of his peers.
However, speaking of which, it was a bit too difficult to be in the same generation as Gousheng. That was because in the lower realms, he had already ascended to the higher realms and entered the Revolving Core realm, while his peers were still lingering between the Martial King and Martial Emperor realms.
Because of the relationship between Zhenren Tonggu and Enlightened Being Qing Wei, Jun Changxiao and Empress Lingyao were considered to be in the same generation. Combined with the latter's relationship with the Night Emperor, the final conclusion was that Ah Niu was a generation younger.
It was not a big problem.
Ye Xingchen was Jun Changxiao's disciple, so it was normal for him to be a generation younger.
No.
What did Ah Niu's generation difference have to do with the main topic?
Was Gou Sheng's daily persecution not enough? Did the author have to add another stab in the side story?
Back to the main topic.
Enlightened Being Qing Wei was a woman, but she was ruthless when it came to doing things.
Back then, when she revealed her outstanding talent in the higher realms, because she was molested by a lecher, she directly massacred her family, and even wiped out two sects that supported her family, immediately causing a huge commotion.
The Jie Hall would not remain indifferent, so they sent experts to capture her. Both sides fought fiercely in the Feidu Valley for three days and three nights. In the end, Daoist Qing Wei killed several Reincarnation Core Realm experts and calmly left.
This matter quickly fermented and spread like wildfire.
It could be said that at that time, the authority of the Boundary Hall was seriously impacted. Because of this, Master Daoist Qingwei was directly classified as a traitor and was wanted all over the continent for the next several thousand years.
Zhenren Tonggu and Masato Kitano were witnesses to this period of history.
Zhenren Qing Wei was extremely talented. Although she was being hunted down endlessly by the Jie Hall, she continued to make breakthroughs and improve. It was only when she stepped into the Seeking Truth Realm that various big shots came forward to mediate and resolve the long-standing grievances.
Not to mention who was in the right and who was in the wrong about the annihilation of her family and sect, just from this alone, one could see the truest portrayal of martial arts being respected. That was, the weak would be bullied, and the strong would be valued.
Fortunately, Jun Changxiao had a powerful master when he first came to the higher realms. Otherwise, if he publicly announced that he was the one who annihilated a sect, it would definitely cause the Jie Hall to be greatly displeased, and the problem would worsen. It would not be strange if he was labeled as a traitor in the end.
"Senior."
Empress Lingyao explained, "Master does not restrict me from doing anything, even if I become a member of the Jie Hall."
Zhenren Tonggu narrowed his eyes and said, "Child, your master is very narrow-minded. How could she agree to let you work for the Jie Hall?"
Empress Lingyao said, "Senior, you misunderstand. The Jie Hall and I do not have a superior-subordinate relationship, and I only hold an insignificant position in the internal department."
"The Jie Hall is also narrow-minded. Since they dare to use you, they probably don't know that you are Master Daoist Qing Wei's disciple, right?" Zhenren Tonggu's eyes gradually sharpened, as if he had seen through everything.
"I don't know."
Empress Lingyao said truthfully.
"Tsk, tsk."
Zhenren Tonggu said, "Although your master and the Jie Hall have resolved their feud, they do not see eye to eye with each other. Yet you hold a position there. There must be another reason."
"When Master first entered the jianghu, she was maliciously molested by others, and in a fit of anger, she annihilated the entire family. This was a matter of course, but she was labeled as a traitor by the Jie Hall. She could swallow this grievance, but as her disciple, I could not," Empress Lingyao said.
"It's a bit messy, a bit messy."
Zhenren Tonggu scratched his head and said, "Let me think about it."
"Senior, you have great cultivation, so you must have great wisdom as well. I will not beat around the bush. The reason I joined the Jie Hall is to overthrow it and seek justice for Master," Empress Lingyao said, her tone flat.
Zhenren Tonggu had already guessed it, but he was feigning ignorance. Seeing her admit it so frankly, he asked curiously, "So, what is your real purpose in looking for me?"
"The world only knows that the Jie Hall is in charge of the entire Upper World, but they do not know that it is secretly controlled by the Ten Major Immortal-level Sects. I hope to gain your support," Empress Lingyao said.
"Child."
Zhenren Tonggu said, "Do you think that a lone cultivator like me can go against the Ten Major Immortal-level Sects?"
"One person can't, but a group can."
"Hahaha."
Zhenren Tonggu laughed and said, "I have lived for so long, but I have never seen such a daring child!"
"You."
He paused and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the Jie Hall?"
"No."
"Why?"
"Because your disciple, Jun Changxiao, is on the same side as me. When he is fully grown, he will definitely fall out with the Jie Hall. When that time comes, you will not only have to face the various clans, but also the Ten Major Immortal-level Sects that control life and death in the Upper World."
"…"
The corner of Zhenren Tonggu's mouth twitched.
He was not afraid of the Jie Hall on the surface. After all, their overall strength was weak. But the Ten Major Immortal-level Sects, unless his realm was higher, he would not be able to handle even one of them. If that bastard offended them, the problem would be worse than offending the various clans.
Zhenren Tonggu did not know how powerful an Immortal-level Sect was, but he knew that a lone cultivator would never be able to defeat a group.
"Senior."
Empress Lingyao said, "Your disciple destroyed the Fuqian Sect because of the mine. I have investigated thoroughly, and the Jie Hall will not be able to find anything wrong with it, so you can rest assured."
"…"
If this girl had investigated thoroughly and still came to find him, it seemed that she really wanted to destroy the Jie Hall. The disciple taught by Qing Wei was even crazier than she was in the past.
"Of course."
Empress Lingyao said, "I am not trying to get you to join us. I am here to tell you that sooner or later, we will stand on the same side and face the same enemy."
"You are sure that my disciple will fall out with the Jie Hall?" Zhenren Tonggu asked.
"Senior, have you heard of the Cosmic Fortress?"
"I have."
"It was blown up by your disciple."
"Huh?"
Zhenren Tonggu's eyes widened.
Empress Lingyao said, "As everyone knows, the Jie Hall built the Cosmic Fortress in the Lower Realm to imprison traitors. Jun Changxiao blew it up, which is tantamount to openly challenging the authority of the Jie Hall. If the Ten Major Immortal-level Sects pursue this matter, it will be a big problem."
"…"
Zhenren Tonggu's expression became interesting.
"The Jie Hall is wary of Senior's prestige, so they have always tried to minimize the problem."
Empress Lingyao said, "But if Jun Changxiao does something unbearable in the future, when the accumulated conflict erupts, the Ten Major Immortal-level Sects will probably come to you for an explanation."
"…"
Zhenren Tonggu said to himself, "I regret taking him as my disciple!"
