Xiao YiCai lowered his voice, his expression turned solemn, said, "Teacher asked me to ask teacher uncle, the 'Tian Ji Seal' at the back of Bamboo Valley, is it still in good condition?"
Tian BuYi's expression changed greatly, abruptly stood up, stared at Xiao YiCai, Xiao YiCai also slowly stood up, but took a step back. Tian BuYi stared at Xiao YiCai for a long time, the expression on his face kept changing, at first he was shocked, slowly calmed down and became deep in thought, finally his eyes seemed to flash another strange light, looked at Xiao YiCai, suddenly said:
"Seems DaoXuan senior brother really wants to pass his sect head position to you."
Xiao YiCai lowered his head slightly, said, "Teacher uncle is too serious, disciple dare not accept it."
Tian BuYi indifferently said, "He even did not hide this matter from you, the meaning is naturally very clear. Forget it, this is your TongTian Peak's matter, I also can't be bothered. But regarding the Tian Ji Seal, "his voice paused here, in a deep voice said," This matter is not trivial, and even more concerns Qing Yun's fate, Qing Ye founder had issued a clear order to Qing Yun seven branches heads, unless it is absolutely necessary, do not use it … "
He breathed deeply, said, "The implications, everyone understands very well. I just want to ask, has DaoXuan senior brother really thought it through? "
Xiao YiCai's expression was also extremely cautious, after a long silence, as if not daring to say a word wrong, then nodded and said, "Yes, teacher before disciple left, has already very solemnly instructed disciple."
Tian BuYi pondered for a moment, said, "Then other than TongTian Peak and Bamboo Valley, the other five branches' 'Tian Ji Seal'?"
Xiao YiCai respectfully said, "Teacher only informed disciple about this matter, because teacher feels that Tian teacher uncle is the most respected in Qing Yun sect, so specially came to seek teacher uncle's opinion. As for the other five branches, disciple will pay a visit to the heads later. "
Tian BuYi slowly nodded, again sat back on his seat, thought for a long time, sighed and said, "To talk about the current situation, it is indeed already at a critical juncture, the fate of the common people all depends on this battle, sect head senior brother wants to go all out, I also have nothing to say. Just that after you go back, help me pass on a message to him. "
Xiao YiCai said respectfully, "Yes, Tian Shishu, please tell me, I will definitely bring it to you."
Tian BuYi's face turned slightly pale, said, "Once the Seven Meridians Heaven Fate Seal is removed, Qing Yun Hill's thousand years of repressed evil energy will inevitably leak out, although with the suppression of Zhu Xian ancient sword divine power, it can turn into exceptional murderous intent, but the harm to the sword wielder, the erosion of the foundation of cultivation, is also no small matter. DaoXuan senior brother's skills are profound but this is not a small matter, it's better to ask him to think about it first, just in case. "
Xiao YiCai said with a straight face, "Yes, disciple will definitely bring Martial Uncle Tian's words." After a pause, he continued, "If Martial Uncle Tian doesn't have anything else, I'll take my leave first."
Tian Bolis nodded and did not speak. Xiao YiCai saw his solemn expression and did not dare to say more and slowly retreated. In Observed Silence Hall, only Tian BuYi was left. He slowly turned around, looked at the statues of Taoism Three Qing founders worshiped in Observed Silence Hall, his expression complicated, after a long while, he only sighed and did not say anything.
When Xiao YiCai flew back to TongTian Peak, it was already night time, TongTian Peak was brightly lit, the original Qing Yun sect disciples, in addition to the numerous Good Faction people that flooded into Qing Yun recently, made this fairyland like place somewhat crowded and secular.
But Xiao YiCai did not have the mood to care about all these, he headed straight to Crystal Hall, after inquiring about Reverend DaoXuan's whereabouts from the Qing Yun disciples in Crystal Hall, he headed towards Reverend DaoXuan's bedroom at the rear hall of Crystal Hall.
Coming to a secluded place at the rear hall, Xiao YiCai stood at Reverend DaoXuan's door for a while, composed himself and was about to knock, Reverend DaoXuan's voice was heard from inside the room, "Is it YiCai, come in."
Xiao YiCai paused for a moment, immediately respectfully said, "Yes." After speaking, he gently pushed open the door and walked in.
The room was very spacious, all the furnishings had a bookish aura, other than a simple table, chairs and bed, there were even more books on the bookshelves on both sides of the room, many of which were already ancient books, neatly placed on the bookshelves, could be seen that the owner had read through them countless times.
Reverend DaoXuan was sitting beside the desk, holding an ancient scroll in his hand, reading, seeing Xiao YiCai walking in, he smiled and said, "Only returned now?"
Xiao YiCai bowed deeply, said, "Yes, teacher."
Reverend DaoXuan nodded, said, "How is the matter going?"
Xiao YiCai said, "The seven branches leaders all have no objections, all said to follow teacher's wishes, only Big Bamboo Valley Tian teacher uncle..."
Reverend DaoXuan frowned, said, "Why, Tian junior brother he has a different opinion?"
Xiao YiCai quickly said, "No, Tian teacher uncle also did not object, only asked disciple to bring a few words, to report to teacher."
Reverend DaoXuan was slightly surprised, said, "What words, say?"
Xiao YiCai immediately repeated Tian BuYi's words, Reverend DaoXuan was speechless, Xiao YiCai who was standing at the side peeked, Reverend DaoXuan's expression was complicated, seemed to be thinking about something, his expression constantly changing.
Just when Xiao YiCai was guessing what Reverend DaoXuan was thinking, Reverend DaoXuan suddenly said, "Yicai, what do you think of Tian teacher uncle?"
Xiao YiCai was shocked, did not know what Reverend DaoXuan's words meant, glanced at him but could not see anything special, could only carefully said, "En, disciple feels, Tian teacher uncle this person... is still quite good."
Reverend DaoXuan smiled, obviously did not care much about this disciple's opportunistic words, he leisurely said, "Yes, he is quite a good person, heh heh, it must have been hard for him to look like that at that time, to be able to be seen through by someone's perceptive eyes …"
Reverend DaoXuan's words suddenly stopped, the room fell into silence, Xiao YiCai gently shifted his body, indistinctly felt uneasy. After a moment, Reverend DaoXuan said, "You have been running for a day, you must be tired, go back and rest."
Xiao YiCai nodded, bowed and said, "Yes." After speaking, he slowly retreated.
Reverend DaoXuan looked at this proud disciple's figure disappearing from his sight, pondered for a moment, and looked at the pitch black sky outside the window, slowly stood up, walked out, very quickly, his figure melted into Qing Yun sect's dark night.
Although it was already late at night, but in the secluded Founders Ancestral Hall at the back of TongTian Peak, the everlasting lantern was still burning, like a faint nether fire in the darkness. The old man who was guarding this Founders Ancestral Hall was still awake, right now he was standing in front of the altar that enshrined Qing Yun sect ancestors' spirit tablets, staring at those names in the darkness.
Far away, there were low sounds of insects.
In the silence, there seemed to be some heartbeat sounds!
The night breeze blew past, the flame of the everlasting lantern swayed, as if it was panting, the old man slowly turned around, walked to the lantern, used his hand to gently block the direction where the wind was blowing from, very soon, the lantern quieted down, and again started to burn steadily. The old man stared intently at this spot of light, the lantern reflected in his eyes, seemed to be burning something too.
In the deep night, footsteps were suddenly heard, the old man frowned, listened carefully and then slowly turned around, the old voice unhurriedly said, "I didn't expect at such a late time, you would still come."
Reverend DaoXuan's figure, slowly became clear from the darkness, walked into this Founders Ancestral Hall.
Under the dim yellow lantern light, the two old men's gazes met in mid-air, for a moment they were both stunned, inadvertently, they suddenly realised, the other party was already so old, and then they recalled, weren't they the same?
Reverend DaoXuan was silent, stared at that old man for a long time and then slowly walked to the altar table, stood under the Qing Yun sect ancestors' spirit tablets, slowly straightened his body. The old man walked behind him, also did not speak.
In the darkness, an invisible majestic presence slowly emanated from those shadows, like deep traces that even time could not erase away. Reverend DaoXuan was expressionless, picked up three thin incense sticks from the altar table, walked to the candles and lit them, both hands solemnly held them, respectfully bowed three times to the ancestors tablets, and then stepped forward, inserted the incense sticks into the incense burner.
Faint light smoke rose from the incense burner and dispersed into the air, making the memorial tablets in front of them even more indistinct. Indistinctly, there seemed to be pairs of eyes, coldly looking at the two old men and the world.
"Burning incense in the middle of the night, is there any difficulty?" That old man indifferently asked, his tone calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Reverend DaoXuan did not turn back to look at him, his pair of eyes was always staring at those majestic tablets behind the smoke, after a moment, he unhurriedly said, "You say, in the future after you and I have passed on, when the descendants pay their respects to us, what kind of feelings would they have?"
That old man snorted, said, "To you, naturally they would be filled with reverence, as for me, don't tell me who would still remember?"
Reverend DaoXuan did not mind the old man's slightly sarcastic words, only smiled faintly. Then, he quietly said, "Now that the calamity is upon us, the people in the world are plunged into misery and suffering, suffering the ravages of the Evil Beasts. As long as I think of the inevitable battle between Qing Yun Hill and the Evil Beasts, and even more related to the fate of the people in the world, these heavy burdens on my shoulders, I have not slept well for many days.
