Xuanzong.
There were nine peaks hanging upside down above the East Sea. In the Taoist Palace on the ninth peak.
The elders of the six Taoist sects had gathered. A middle-aged man dressed in colorful robes looked at Qing Chengzi and asked, "Qing Chengzi, is it like what Martial Granduncle Ling Jizi said, that you have committed such evil deeds in the North County?"
Qing Chengzi stood in the hall and said loudly, "Sect Master, this lady must have mistaken me for someone else. I have never been to the North County, and it is impossible for me to kill her clan. I am innocent …"
The Xuanzong Sect Master, Miao Yunzi, waved his wide sleeves and said, "I believe that Junior Brother Ling Jizi would not speak without thinking. Your words alone are not enough to convince others. Miao Yuan, take him to Discipline Peak. Whether he is lying or not, the Discipline Elder will find out."
After saying that, he looked at Li Mu and asked, "Is Junior Brother Ling Jizi satisfied with this?"
At least so far, as the Xuanzong Sect Master and a seventh-realm expert, Miao Yunzi had shown enough sincerity. He did not protect the disciples of the sect, but dealt with them according to the rules of the Xuanzong Sect. Li Mu had no objections to this.
He held Xiao Bai's hand and gave her a comforting look.
After Qing Chengzi was taken away, the atmosphere in the Taoist Palace was gloomy. Jadesun took the initiative to speak and said with a smile, "It has only been a year since we parted in the Demon Nation, but Junior Brother Ling Jizi's cultivation has already reached the peak of the Creation Realm. It really makes me feel ashamed. I'm afraid that Fu-lu School will have another expert soon …"
Li Mu had a good impression of this senior sister of the Danding Sect. He smiled and said, "I just encountered some opportunities."
Jadesun said, "Junior Brother, there is no need to be humble. As cultivators, opportunities and talent are indispensable. The so-called opportunities are also strength."
Inside the Taoist Palace, while Li Mu and Jadesun were chatting, Qing Chengzi's face was pale and his body was trembling slightly in Xuanzong Discipline Peak.
Standing in front of him was not only the Discipline Peak Elder, but there were also two Martial Granduncles of the Miao generation and two Grand Elders of the Dao generation. Besides the Sect Master, Xuanzong's seventh-realm elders were all here.
An old man with a face full of wrinkles, white eyebrows, and a white beard said with a gloomy expression, "Such a thing actually happened during the exchange that occurs once every five years. Does the Talisman Puppet Sect even respect my Profound Sect!?"
. "The other old man next to him narrowed his eyes and said," Maybe they think that because Fu-lu School has a fourth transcendent cultivator, they can compare to Xuanzong. If I remember correctly, the two from Fu-lu School have less than two years left. In two years, Fu-lu School will be the weakest of the Six Sects. They can't even compare to Danding Sect and Spirit Formation Sect …. "
Only Daoist Miao Dun looked at Qing Chengzi and asked seriously, "Did you really kill that fox demon?"
Qing Chengzi knew that he couldn't hide it in front of these elders. He said regretfully, "I didn't know that the fox demon was the sister of the Fu-lu School's Martial Granduncles …."
Daoist Miao Dun said angrily, "I didn't expect you to do such a thing. Come, let's go see the Sect Master!"
Elder Bai Mei looked at Daoist Miao Dun and said, "Wait."
Daoist Miao Dun frowned and said, "Martial Uncle, Qing Chengzi violated the sect rules …."
Elder Bai Mei looked at her and said, "In the Miao generation, your talent is second only to your Senior Brother. Now, even Miao Xuan and Fu-lu School's Yuzhen have already transcended. But you're still in Dongxuan. Stay in the sect and cultivate. Break through as soon as possible. Don't worry about anything else."
"Martial Uncle …."
"You can leave."
…
Daoist Miao Dun looked at Elder Bai Mei. After taking a deep breath, she bowed and said, "This disciple will take her leave."
After she left, Elder Bai Mei glanced at Qing Chengzi and said, "It's just killing a few demons. Those who are not of our race must have a different heart. The Great Zhou court is muddle-headed and treats demons as common people. Sooner or later, they will be harmed. Now that all the cultivators in Zu Province are gathered here, if we punish a Xuanzong disciple for a few demons, won't we, Xuanzong, be ridiculed by all the cultivators in the world?"
Qing Chengzi was overjoyed. Since the Grand Elder said so, he had nothing to worry about.
The other Xuanzong elders also fell into deep thought. The Grand Elder's words made sense. If it were any other time, given the relationship between Fu-lu School and Xuanzong, an ordinary Xuanzong disciple would probably be expelled from the sect for committing such a big mistake. Even a fourth-generation core disciple like Qing Chengzi would be severely punished.
But now it was the quinquennial Daoist exchange. All the Daoist cultivators in Zu Province were gathered in Xuanzong. If this matter were to spread, it would damage Xuanzong's reputation. As the top sect of Daoism, Xuanzong's reputation was much more important than a fourth-generation disciple.
Elder Bai Mei looked coldly at Qing Chengzi and said, "From now on, you are not allowed to leave the sect until you reach Dongxuan."
Qing Chengzi had just reached the fifth realm. Although he could enjoy a lot of resources in the sect, he did not know how long it would take for him to reach the sixth realm. Although he was unwilling, he could only bow and say respectfully, "As the Grand Elder commands."
Xuanzong, Peak Daoist Palace.
Li Mu was still talking with Jadesun when Miao Yuanzi flew in alone. Miao Yunzi asked, "What's the result?"
Miao Yuanzi cupped his fists and said, "Sect Master Senior Brother, just now at Discipline Peak, Grand Elder personally performed a Soul Search on Qing Chengzi. This matter is indeed not his doing. There should be a misunderstanding."
Miao Yunzi frowned imperceptibly and asked, "What about Qing Chengzi?"
Miao Yuanzi said, "Although this matter was not done by Qing Chengzi, as a disciple of Xuanzong, he embarrassed Xuanzong in front of so many Daoist cultivators. Uncle-Master has already punished him to face the wall in seclusion. He is not allowed to come out for ten years."
The four elders of Danding Sect, Spirit Array Sect, and the South and North Sects heard Miao Yuanzi's words and their expressions changed subtly.
Miao Yunzi was silent for a moment and said, "I'll go see the Grand Elder."
An old man floated in from outside and said lightly, "No need. If you want to see this old man, you can say it here."
Miao Yunzi cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Uncle-Master."
Jadesun and the others also bowed and saluted, "Greetings, Uncle-Master Dao Chengzi."
Today's Xuanzong, the Daoist names of the first to fourth generation disciples were Dao, Miao, Hua, and Qing. Dao Chengzi was a famous Daoist powerhouse who was one generation higher than the Six Sect Masters.
Miao Yunzi looked at the white-browed old man and asked, "Uncle-Master, Qing Chengzi …"
The white-browed old man said, "I've already punished Qing Chengzi. How did you become the Sect Master? When your master was still in power, Xuanzong was so powerful. In your generation, you were framed and framed, and you didn't even protect your own disciple. If Senior Brother knew about this in the underworld, I'm afraid he would doubt his original decision and regret passing the position of Sect Master to you."
After reprimanding Miao Yunzi, he looked at Li Mu and said in a deep voice, "You insulted my Xuanzong. For the sake of the Fu-lu School, I won't argue with a junior like you this time. If there's a next time, I'll destroy your cultivation and let Xuan Jizi come to Penglai Mountain personally to take you back!"
As his voice fell, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Inside the Dao Palace, Miao Yunzi's expression was complicated. He looked at Li Mu and his lips moved, "Junior Brother …"
Li Mu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to say more. Since it's a misunderstanding, I apologize to Xuanzong for my impulse just now. Goodbye."
After that, he held Xiao Bai's hand and strode out of the Dao Palace.
Miao Yunzi looked at Li Mu's back and sighed softly. One called him Junior Brother, and the other called him Fellow Daoist. This change in address indicated that the relationship between Xuanzong and the Fu-lu School could no longer be the same as before.
Outside the Dao Palace, many Xuanzong disciples stood in the distance with different expressions.
Some looked ashamed, some looked smug. Qing Xuanzi's face lit up with joy. He looked at Li Mu with a mocking expression and snorted, "So what if you're a second-generation disciple of the Fu-lu School? You're only asking for humiliation if you try to provoke the dignity of Xuanzong …"
As Li Mu flew down, a figure flew from behind. Jadesun flew to his side and comforted him, "Junior Brother, don't be impulsive. This is Xuanzong. You're alone and weak. Once you're impulsive, you'll be bullied by them."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister. I won't be impulsive."
Looking at Li Mu's back, Jadesun thought for a moment and took out a sound transmission instrument. After hesitating for a long time, she injected her spiritual energy. A white light flashed on the instrument. Jadesun took a deep breath and whispered a few words into the instrument.
At the entrance of the Fu-lu Pavilion, Xiao Bai bit her lips and wiped her tears. She looked up at Li Mu and said, "Benefactor, I … I won't take revenge …"
Li Mu reached out and held her face. He wiped away her tears and said softly, "I promise you, I'll let you kill your enemy and avenge your grandmother and your clan."
He looked up at the countless mountains floating in the sky and a smile appeared on his face. He said lightly, "Xuanzong, heh …"
The sound transmission instrument in the storage space vibrated. Li Mu took out an object and said calmly, "Senior Brother."
Xuan Jizi's voice came from the instrument, "Junior Sister Jadesun has already told me about what happened in Xuanzong. Xuanzong is the number one sect of Taoism. Its strength is tyrannical …"
Li Mu asked, "Does Senior Brother want to persuade me to let the matter rest?"
From the instrument, Xuan Jizi's voice gradually became cold, "Xuanzong is the number one sect of Taoism. Its strength is tyrannical. However, my Fu-lu School is not made of mud. Junior Brother, please bear with it for half a day. Two Martial Uncles and Junior Sister are already on their way to Xuanzong …"
