Ling Yunzi's dissatisfaction with the Taoist Master Mansion was actually his dissatisfaction with the old Taoist Master.
In the eyes of other people, the old Taoist Master was highly respected and was a famous figure in Jianghu, but in Ling Yunzi's view, it was not the case.
Of course, there was no interest or jealousy in this. Ling Yunzi was just dissatisfied with the attitude of the Taoist Master Mansion as the leader of the righteous path.
Before Ling Yunzi stepped into the Heaven and Earth Mystic State, who was the leader of Taoism? It was the Taoist Master Mansion, the old Taoist Master.
As a result, for so many years, the Taoist Master Mansion had always been in a corner of West Chu. Although the Taoist Master Mansion did not do anything too excessive, they did not do anything beneficial to the situation of the righteous path in Jianghu.
Needless to say, the old Taoist Master's strength. Although he was more than 500 years old, his combat power was still there. Although he was slightly at a disadvantage in the last battle with Ye Shaonan, it was not a great defeat. This was enough to prove the horror of the old Taoist Master.
As a result, the old Taoist Master had such strength, but he did not retreat, nor did he lead Taoism or the entire righteous path to suppress Diabolism. Instead, he built a small courtyard in Dragon Tiger Mountain and spent his days basking in the sun. This made Ling Yunzi somewhat dissatisfied.
In his position, not doing anything was a sin in itself.
Of course, in the eyes of others, the Taoist Master Mansion had such power, and the old Taoist Master had such strength, but he did not do things too overbearingly. This was already good enough. He could be called a respected martial arts legend.
At present, the expectations of the people in Jianghu for those powerhouses had been reduced to the lowest level. As long as they did not come out to cause trouble, then they were good people.
On the side of Chunyang Dao Sect, although Ling Yunzi was a little dissatisfied with the reaction of the Taoist Master Mansion, he did not have the qualifications and strength to order the Taoist Master Mansion. He could only let Zhang Daoling go back for the time being and ask the old Taoist Master before making a decision.
On the cliff of the back mountain of Dragon Tiger Mountain, next to the small hut, the old Taoist Master was still lying on the bamboo chair basking in the sun. Sometimes, he might spend the whole day basking in the sun.
Zhang Chengzhen, on the other hand, sat cross-legged beside the old Heavenly Master and cultivated.
His cultivation didn't seem to have increased at all. It was even the same as when he had just broken through to the Real Pellet State, but the aura on his body was extremely solid. There was even an inexplicable aura lingering around him.
The old Celestial Master picked up the teapot and took a sip of tea. He glanced at Zhang Chengzhen with a look of approval in his eyes.
He thought highly of Zhang Chengzhen, but what he valued about Zhang Chengzhen was not his strength, but his patience.
In the past, Zhang Chengzhen was the number one person of the younger generation. Who didn't know the name Little Celestial Master?
However, the people of Jianghu are always forgetful. If you don't appear in their eyes for a few years, they will forget about you.
In Zhang Chengzhen's generation, Chu Xiu had become a demon lord who stirred up the Jianghu. Although he was only in the True Fire Spiritual Refinement State, his influence was comparable to the powerhouses on the Sovereign Ranking. As the master of the Kunlun Devil Cult, was he not considered a supreme figure in the world?
Junior Marquis Lu Fengxian became famous after the battle in Wei County. Even now, no one called Lu Fengxian Junior Marquis Lu Fengxian. Instead, they called her Unparalleled Marquis Lu Fengxian.
The Great Demon God Lu Fengxian was unparalleled in the world, and the future Lu Fengxian was also unparalleled.
There was also the Wisdom Ruler of the Great Light Temple, Zong Xuan. Although Zong Xuan had not appeared in the Jianghu for a long time, he had written his Wisdom Ruler Seal into a book, which became one of the books enshrined in the Sutra Library. From then on, the disciples of the Great Light Temple would never forget the name Zong Xuan.
Moreover, it was said that Zong Xuan was about to break through to the True Fire Spiritual Refinement State. It was even said that Xu Ci once said that if Zong Xuan could step into the True Fire Spiritual Refinement State, he would add another martial arts courtyard to the foundation of the Great Light Temple's six martial arts courtyards. It would be called the Wisdom Courtyard, and Zong Xuan would be the head.
It should be known that the founders of the Great Light Temple's six martial arts courtyards and three meditation halls were all outstanding figures who could develop a branch of Buddhism on their own.
Now that Xu Ci was preparing to open the seventh martial arts courtyard, it was obvious that he was comparing Zong Xuan to the ancestors of the Great Light Temple. He believed that Zong Xuan was qualified to open a branch of Buddhism.
These outstanding figures of the past had become famous in the martial world. Their names might not be immortalized, but at the very least, the martial world would not forget their names in the future.
However, Zhang Chengzhen, who was ranked first on the Longhu Leaderboard in the past, was able to sit at the peak of Longhu Mountain for close to ten years, accompanying the old man to bask in the sun. If it were anyone else, they would have been unable to endure it. However, Zhang Chengzhen's heart remained the same. His patience was what the old Celestial Master valued.
In the past, the old man was not even as good as Zhang Chengzhen. In the end, he could still lie here and bask in the sun until the very end. However, the graves of his enemies and old friends had trees that were dozens of feet tall, let alone grass.
The old Celestial Master lay down again and said slowly, "Endure it. We have a long life ahead of us. If we can't fight for a moment, we can fight for a lifetime, right?"
However, at that moment, the old Celestial Master suddenly opened his eyes. His body subconsciously emitted a sharp gleam that even startled Zhang Chengzhen, who was meditating at the side.
"What's wrong, Old Celestial Master?"
The old Celestial Master shook his head and an imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "An interesting young fellow has come to visit. He's an old friend of yours.
He doesn't come with good intentions. Why would he come to my Celestial Master Manor at a time like this? Isn't he afraid that I'll disregard my reputation and make him stay here?
Speaking of which, I've been disgraced for hundreds of years. Where would I find my reputation? "
Although Zhang Chengzhen did not know what the old Celestial Master meant, he still cautiously reminded him, "Your reputation is Longhu Mountain's reputation. You mustn't lose it."
At that moment, at the foot of Longhu Mountain, Chu Xiu's black robes fluttered in the wind. His saber was sheathed at his waist. The scabbard was made of beautiful purple gold inlaid with jade. Mei Qinglian had chosen it for him.
That outfit, coupled with Chu Xiu's youthful appearance, made him look like a young warrior who had just stepped out into the world.
Of course, he had to ignore the few young Taoists from the Celestial Master Manor who looked like they were facing a great enemy.
Chu Xiu came to the Celestial Master Manor alone. After receiving the news that Ling Yunzi was preparing to unite the world's righteous path to destroy the Kunlun Devil Cult, Chu Xiu came to West Chu first.
Ling Yunzi's reputation was simply too huge. Don't forget that there were still many disciples from aristocratic families in the Kunlun Demon Sect. When they came to join the Kunlun Demon Sect, they had also brought this piece of news with them.
Chu Xiu did not have the habit of waiting for death. He was used to taking the initiative and had even made several preparations.
This time, Chu Xiu came to West Chu to complete two things. One was to convince the Celestial Master Manor not to take action, and the other was to convince the Moon Worshipping Cult to take action.
Chu Xiu had come to Mount Longhu to meet the old Celestial Master, not mainly to convince the Celestial Master's Mansion. Instead, he simply wanted to meet the old Celestial Master and see if the old Celestial Master could recognize him.
Previously, Lu Jiang He said that his current appearance was exactly the same as Dugu Weiwei's Earth Soul Incarnation, but he did not have any aura that belonged to Dugu Weiwei.
Although Lu Jiang He was unreliable, Chu Xiu still believed in him.
After all, Lu Jiang He had followed Dugu Weiwei for so many years. Although he was not as close as the Four Great Demon Ancestors, he was still a core figure of the Kunlun Devil Cult. He would not be wrong about Dugu Weiwei's aura.
Five hundred years ago, besides Lu Jiang He, there was only the Old Celestial Master who was from the same era as Dugu Weiwei.
So this time, when he went to the Celestial Master Manor, Chu Xiu wanted to see if he could find any clues from the Old Celestial Master.
As for the positions of both sides, Chu Xiu was not worried.
For so many years, the Old Celestial Master had been ruling by doing nothing. Since more than a hundred years ago, he had not been involved in anything. His attitude towards the Demonic Dao martial artists was not as fierce as that of the Great Light Temple or the Chunyang Dao Sect.
Of course, with Chu Xiu's suspicious character, even if the Old Celestial Master behaved peacefully, he would not completely trust him.
But with Chu Xiu's current strength, if the Old Celestial Master really turned against him, he could still escape even if he could not win.
Moreover, even if he could not escape, Chu Xiu still had a trump card. The mark that Zhong Shenxiu had left for him was still there.
Of course, this was only the worst-case scenario. Chu Xiu did not intend to use this trump card until the most critical moment.
Moreover, although Zhong Shenxiu was strong to the point that Chu Xiu could not understand, Chu Xiu did not forget that this guy seemed to have a poor sense of direction. Not long after entering the Primitive Devil Cave, he had to go back the way he came. Yet, he still got lost.
If he activated the mark and Zhong Shenxiu got lost, Chu Xiu would be in a difficult position.
After clearing these messy thoughts, Chu Xiu smiled brightly at the few young Taoist priests in front of him, who looked as if they were facing a great enemy. "Don't be nervous. I'm just here to visit the Old Celestial Master."
The few young Taoist priests who were guarding the door looked as if they would not believe him.
Recently, the most famous person in the Pugilistic World was undoubtedly Chu Xiu.
He had led the Yinmo Clan back to Kunlun. Before going to Kunlun, he had ruthlessly killed all of his own people. He was vicious and merciless. If he did this to his own people, then there was no need to talk about others.
The banner of the Kunlun Devil Cult was raised. Although Chu Xiu had not yet reached the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Realm, he already had the power and influence of a supreme martial artist.
Of course, in the eyes of most of the martial artists of the righteous sects, this was not power and influence, but a fierce demonic power. In this Pugilistic World, another great demon had appeared!
Now, this great demon who was in the limelight of the Pugilistic World had suddenly appeared in their Dragon Tiger Mountain. Who would dare believe that he was only here to visit the Old Celestial Master?
Seeing the appearance of these young Taoist priests, Chu Xiu could not help but shake his head.
Dragon Tiger Mountain had been peaceful for too long. How could this disciple make a fuss over nothing? He had no self-control.
Ignoring them, Chu Xiu directly said in a deep voice, "Kunlun's Chu Xiu pays his respects to the Old Celestial Master!"
Chu Xiu's voice was like the roar of a dragon and a tiger. With a trace of the rhythm of heaven and earth and a trace of sharpness, it resounded throughout the entire Dragon Tiger Mountain.
In an instant, all the Taoist priests of Dragon Tiger Mountain were alarmed. They looked down the mountain in shock.
At this moment, an old voice came from the peak of the mountain. "Invite Official Chu up. Be polite. Don't let outsiders say that Dragon Tiger Mountain does not know the rules."
