SuRu was silent for a long time, her voice slightly hoarse, said, "Even so, but in the end it is still above Zhu Xian. Now that Zhu Xian has been destroyed, even if sect head senior brother is unfortunate to be harmed, but firstly there is no source, secondly his skills are divine, as long as time passes, most likely he will gradually come to his senses and resolve it himself! "
Tian BuYi's solemn expression did not diminish at all, faintly said, "I hope so, if not, with his position as Qing Yun's leader, if anything happens to him, this Qing Yun sect from top to bottom... really don't know how to clean up the mess."
SuRu thought for a moment, then helplessly sighed, dejectedly said, "Forget it, this is also not something we can manage now, you don't have to be too troubled. There is one more thing, I have always wanted to ask, after Zhu Xian sword was destroyed, how was it dealt with? "
Tian BuYi pondered for a moment, said, "I have inquired about this matter from a senior brother who is in the know, heard that after DaoXuan senior brother reprimanded everyone not to leak it out, he immediately picked up the broken Zhu Xian sword and at the same time walked into the Illusory Moon Cave, not allowing anyone to enter the Illusory Moon Cave forbidden grounds. So until today, no one knew what happened to that Zhu Xian ancient sword? Maybe, there is still hope to repair it? "
Tian BuYi said the last sentence to himself, but then shook his head with a bitter smile, obviously even he himself did not believe such a thing. After a few bitter laughs, he casually said, "We can't care about that sword, but today when we went to TongTian Peak, other than suffering an inexplicable scolding, we also heard of a strange matter."
SuRu was surprised, said, "What strange matter?"
Tian BuYi shrugged his shoulders, said, "You won't believe it even if I say it, in the previous battle, how many disciples and elders died, and now at TongTian Peak's Crystal Hall public memorial. But that DaoXuan senior brother of ours only showed his face once a day and then disappeared, instead he went to the back mountain to keep vigil for people at Founders Ancestral Hall every day, don't you think it's strange? "
SuRu was stunned, said in surprise, "Keep vigil, what happened at Founders Ancestral Hall, don't tell me a senior elder has passed away?"
Tian BuYi shook his head, sneered and said, "What elder, I heard a few disciples secretly discussing, actually it was an old man who had been guarding and cleaning the Founders Ancestral Hall for decades, for some reason he happened to die that day. How he died, nobody knows, only know that after DaoXuan senior brother knew about it, he was dumbstruck for a while and then flew into a rage, heard that he was in a daze for a few days, in the end he insisted on placing this old man's memorial tablet into the Founders Ancestral Hall, but the strangest thing was, the memorial tablet that he placed in the Founders Ancestral Hall, was actually blank! "
The more Suru listened, the more confused she became. She was even more shocked in her heart. She shook her head and said, "This, this, what exactly is going on? Could it be that Sect Head Shixiong is really, really a little muddled?"
Tian Bolis sneered, said: "No one knows whether he is muddle-headed or not. Anyway, someone advised him, but he refused to listen. And he did not take a good look at the memorial tablets of the disciples in the Crystal Hall, instead he went to the Founders Ancestral Hall to stare at the empty memorial tablet in a daze. If this goes on, I think this Qing Yun Sect, sooner or later something will happen, sooner or later it will be destroyed in his hands … "
Suru was silent, after a long while, faintly sighed, looked out of the Observed Silence Hall, saw that in this lonely afternoon, the outside was also empty, only the blue sky in the distance.
The mountain breeze blew past, indistinctly heard the rustling of the bamboos at the back of the mountain, but for some reason, it instead added a sense of loneliness.
Qing Yun Hill, TongTian Peak, Founders Ancestral Hall at the back of the mountain.
This place was as quiet and solemn as usual, the tall ancestral hall still stood tall, the surrounding woods as green as before, as if the earth-shattering battle that happened on Qing Yun Hill a few days ago, did not affect this place at all.
Other than one less cleaning elder, and on that dim altar, in an inconspicuous place among the countless memorial tablets, there was an additional unfamiliar and blank memorial tablet.
Lin JingYu silently knelt before that empty memorial tablet, dressed in mourning clothes, a brazier placed in front of him, two white candles on the table, three thin incense sticks, light smoke curling up, gently floated up and soon blended into the other offerings, never to be separated again.
Lin JingYu looked sorrowful, his lips tightly pursed, woodenly kneeling on the ground, slowly threw the stack of paper money in his hands into the burning tongues of flame in the brazier, watching them gradually curl and turn yellow, gradually turning into ashes, and then slowly threw in new paper money.
In between, he looked up at that empty memorial tablet from time to time. To place this elder's memorial tablet in the Founders Ancestral Hall, it was Qing Yun sect head Reverend DaoXuan alone, the other elders did not agree, just that Qing Yun sect head had always held great authority, in addition after Reverend DaoXuan defeated the Beast Deity, his reputation became even more unparalleled, everyone saw that he insisted and could only follow him.
Just that although this matter was out of Lin JingYu's expectations, but what happened next, made him even more surprised, Reverend DaoXuan actually placed an empty memorial tablet in the Founders Ancestral Hall, for this, Lin JingYu even boldly asked Reverend DaoXuan who came to pay his respects.
Unexpectedly Reverend DaoXuan only indifferently retorted with a question, and Lin JingYu was rendered speechless, "Then do you know his name?"
Lin JingYu was dumbstruck, although he had followed this mysterious elder for ten years but regarding this elder's own past, this elder had never revealed anything to him, right now to make Lin JingYu say anything, he was really at his wit's end. Just that looking at Reverend DaoXuan's expression, it was obvious that he more or less knew something about this elder but he had no intention of revealing it.
Although Lin JingYu was puzzled but in the end he did not dare to be too presumptuous in front of Reverend DaoXuan, and could only silently retreat. Anyway in his heart, although this elder's memorial tablet was empty but his voice and smile were clearly engraved in his heart, and had never faded.
The public memorial ceremony at the front mountain, he had also paid his respects before, just that he always felt that there were innumerable disciples paying their respects there. But this elder, although he possessed exceptional skills, yet quietly left the mortal world, no matter what he had to send him off, and Reverend DaoXuan seemed to have tacitly allowed him to come here, to help this elder clear up his funeral affairs. And he, as the sect head, disregarding the shocked gazes of the many disciples, frequently came to this Founders Ancestral Hall to visit this elder's empty memorial tablet, which caused many conjectures, but Lin JingYu could not be bothered about it.
Right now, footsteps were heard behind him, for the past few days, Lin JingYu was already familiar with the footsteps, once he heard it, he knew it was Reverend DaoXuan.
He stood up and turned back, quietly said, "Sect head."
Reverend DaoXuan unhurriedly walked into the Founders Ancestral Hall.
The hall was dimly lit, although Lin JingYu had been staying here but for the moment he could not see DaoXuan's face clearly, he could only vaguely see DaoXuan's figure, standing in the shadows, silently looking at the empty memorial tablet beside him.
For some reason, Lin JingYu looked at that indistinct figure in the darkness, suddenly felt something was not right, but what exactly was wrong, he could not pinpoint it, only felt an inexplicable palpitation, indistinctly nervous.
"He, is he still well?" Reverend DaoXuan finally spoke, his voice seemed rather deep, hoarse, and also seemed to be exerting force, suppressing something, very different from his usual tone.
Lin JingYu was even more puzzled but still replied, "Disciple kept vigil for elder day and night, burned incense punctually, never neglected."
That figure in the shadows moved, unhurriedly said, "He has you to send him off so wholeheartedly, his ten years of teaching you was not in vain. Heh heh … "His laughter was cold, in this dimly lit Founders Ancestral Hall, there was some eeriness," Don't know if I die, then … "
He suddenly stopped, seemed to feel that he had said something wrong, Lin JingYu naturally did not dare to speak, stood there with his hands at his side.
The Founders Ancestral Hall fell into silence, after a moment, Reverend DaoXuan said, "You go out for a while, I have some words, to speak to him alone."
Lin JingYu was surprised, acknowledged, said, "Yes." Speaking, he strode out.
Once out of the Founders Ancestral Hall, standing on the open space under the sunlight, Lin JingYu immediately felt his spirits lifted, he then realized, in that hall, he seemed to have a repressed feeling.
He walked one round around the hall, waited for almost an hour but still did not see Reverend DaoXuan coming out, while he was puzzled, turned back and happened to see a back figure disappearing on the small path leading to the Illusory Moon Cave. Ever since the battle ended, the Illusory Moon Cave once again became a restricted area, the one who could enter, naturally was only Reverend DaoXuan alone.
Lin JingYu glanced around, shook his head, turned and walked back into the Founders Ancestral Hall. He walked to the front of the empty memorial tablet and saw that in front of the memorial tablet, three thin incense sticks had been inserted again, and there seemed to be a lot more ashes in the brazier in front of it, as if someone had burned some paper money here.
Lin JingYu pondered for a moment, slowly raised his head, that empty tablet was still quietly standing in that secluded corner, silent …
