Zhao Yun immediately thought that she wouldn't live for long and that it would be difficult to take revenge. Now was just a fantasy. The most important thing was to take care of the present. The white clouds under her feet were faintly discernible, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing. She didn't know where they were going. It was very similar to her background.
However, Zhao Yun was resolute and wouldn't give up easily. Ling Ye Lai said that one had to be unemotional in order to cultivate the Great Dao. He didn't believe this. He even cultivated the Jade Fire True Qi to the Bamboo Howl Realm. He didn't believe that he couldn't cultivate the Green Lotus Sword Technique.
They didn't speak along the way. The Seven Treasure Lotus Platform flew straight to the courtyard in the southwest corner of Lingyun Temple where cherry blossoms bloomed and slowly descended. Zhao Yun looked around and found that it was only a small courtyard. The building was simple and elegant. It was hidden among the flowers and branches and had a quiet and peaceful beauty.
Ling Ye Lai walked forward slowly with lotus blooming with each step. Her long skirt dragged behind her as she said, "This is the Gentleman's Residence. It's named after the lotus flower as the gentleman in the flower. It's straight in the middle and straight in the outside. My Qinglian Sect has always been passed down from one generation to another. There were a few times when the family line was cut off. It was all because the sect transferred grandmasters to inherit the orthodoxy. My master, your grandmaster took charge of the Green Lotus Residence in this way. Sigh, it's just that his whereabouts are unknown. Really???? "She suddenly stopped talking.
When Ling Ye Lai mentioned her master, her expression was full of loneliness and disappointment. It was obvious that she had a deep relationship with Daoist Zihui and couldn't let it go.
Zhao Yun always thought that Ling Ye Lai was heartless. Now that she saw her tone full of sadness and worry, she couldn't help but think, "This woman talked about cutting off ties, but she still can't let it go. It seems that she's not a heartless person. "With this thought, she felt closer to Ling Ye Lai.
Zhao Yun followed Ling Ye Lai into the small courtyard and asked, "Master, I've always felt that the Lingyun Temple is strange. It's clearly a Daoist temple, but why are there so many people who aren't Daoists? They're not even the masters of the Beast Taming Camp. They're clearly just Toutuo. How can they become the inner sect master?"
Ling Ye Lai said, "In the beginning, the Lingyun Temple was indeed a Taoist temple. Later on, its influence expanded, and it took in people from all walks of life. The Alchemy Book Pavilion was originally a large sect, but in the end, the Tianyuan Sect became the main body of the sect. Later on, the Beastmaster Camp was established and started taking in disciples. Among the five sects, only the Qinglian Sect has a single disciple. The Fangheng Court is also very strict when it comes to accepting disciples. This is because the disciples they accept must be compatible with the cultivation method. Therefore, it is more difficult to choose a successor. "
At this point, Zhao Yun's doubts were dispelled. Originally, in addition to the five inner sects and twelve outer sects, the Lingyun Temple also had the Discipline Courtyard and the Elder Courtyard. Most of them were composed of people of virtue and prestige with profound cultivation. They were the power personally controlled by the Lingyun Temple's head. It could be said that they were the core of the sect.
As for the mix between Daoist and secular in the sect, a large number of Daoists married and had children. This was because the founder of the sect was a Daoist priest of Huoju. The taboos between men and women were quite relaxed. The sect master of the Tianyuan Sect was a Daoist priest of Huoju. His wife was the Mount Shu Sect's Li Biyun. The marriage between the two sects could be said to be a perfect match. However, most people in the Lingyun Temple were busy with cultivation and didn't think about family. The majority of them were still pure Daoists.
Ling Ye Lai suddenly said, "Not only is the Lingyun Temple like this, but the Mount Shu Sect is also like this. Do you know that Shuiyue Nunnery wasn't called Shuiyue Nunnery back then, but Shuiyue Sect? "
When Zhao Yun heard Ling Ye Lai suddenly mention Shuiyue Nunnery, she didn't know what she meant. Shuiyue Nunnery was Sister Miao's sect. She didn't know why it changed its name. Could it be that there was a story behind it? She immediately pricked up her ears.
Ling Ye Lai turned around to look at Zhao Yun. Seeing that he was deep in thought with a very concerned expression, she couldn't help but gently laugh.
The two of them looked at each other. Zhao Yun saw that Ling Ye Lai's eyes were bright and there seemed to be a deep meaning in her smile. She hurriedly looked away.
The cobblestone path meandered forward, demure and elegant. After hundreds of years of being together, they had long seen through the clouds. The cherry blossoms on the courtyard wall were shy, and there was a hint of spring.
Ling Ye Lai turned around and kept a distance of three feet from Zhao Yun. She walked neither hurriedly nor slowly. As she walked, she said, "Three hundred years ago, an extraordinary woman, Wang Shengnan, appeared out of nowhere and established Shuiyue Nunnery. It was said that she wasn't originally called Shuiyue Nunnery, but because she was angry at the low status of women in the cultivation world, she was determined to suppress men. She changed her name to Shengnan and took in a lot of disciples.
Her cultivation was profound, and her magic arts were exquisite. The few great sects in Immortal Grove were no match for her. At that time, the whole world had to rely on Shuiyue Nunnery, so no one dared to offend them. At that time, Shuiyue Nunnery had a lot of disciples, and its influence was great. It was far from what Lingyun Temple can compare to today. "
Zhao Yun asked, "But the Shuiyue Nunnery I saw, although its appearance was still majestic, it was bleak and cold. There were almost no people. Moreover, Shuiyue Nunnery only took in one disciple in a generation. "
Ling Ye Lai said, "This Venerable only heard about it from Master. I can't guess the specific inside story. I only know that in the past hundred years, Wang Shengnan disappeared without a trace. Shuiyue Nunnery's power gradually declined, and it was no longer as powerful as it was in the past. Suddenly, one year, Shuiyue Nunnery sent out invitations, inviting all the sect leaders to participate in the tonsure ceremony. It was only when everyone went to Tianhua Mountain that they found out that the huge Shuiyue Nunnery was already deserted, and its disciples had long been dismissed. Wang Shengnan's disciple called herself Ling Su. Dressed in white, she shaved her head and became a monk in front of the guests.
From then on, there was one more white-clothed Bodhisattva in Jianghu, and Shuiyue Nunnery became Shuiyue Nunnery. Calculating the time, Great Master Ling Su changed her name and became a monk. It should have been more than fifty years. "
However, Zhao Yun thought, "Since Sister Miao's Master became a monk halfway, then Shuiyue Nunnery didn't have a rule that one must become a monk. Sister Miao doesn't have to be a nun. That's really great. " Thinking about Sister Miao's bright and beautiful face, not needing to accompany an oil lamp and ancient Buddha, and enduring the loneliness and desolation, she felt even happier than entering the inner hall. A smile couldn't help but appear on her face.
At the end of the path was a row of houses. They were simple and elegant. Although the scale was small, they had high ridges and cornices, and exquisite carvings.
There was a room in the middle, and the words "Gentleman's Residence" were written in ancient calligraphy on its forehead. Ling Ye Lai gently pushed the door open and said, "In a while, I will be going to the Tianyuan Sect to attend a banquet. Since you are the successor of the Qinglian Sect, you will have to attend the banquet as well. In a hurry, I don't have any clothes for you to wear. First, I will give you my Master's Daoist robe. You must take good care of it. Tomorrow, I will have someone buy new clothes for you. "
At this time, Zhao Yun didn't have any clothes on. She only wore an orchid robe. Although it covered her private parts, it was still uncomfortable. Hearing that she could change into new clothes, she was happy.
Ling Ye Lai came out with a blue robe in her hands. Zhao Yun hurriedly reached out to receive it. Seeing that the two's arms were about to touch, Ling Ye Lai didn't allow Zhao Yun's hand to reach in front of her. She gently pushed with her jade hands, and the robe landed firmly in Zhao Yun's hands.
"In the future, you will live in the A-room. Go and change your clothes now." Ling Ye Lai pointed to the small room at the side. "Don't drag it out." She thought to herself, "Although this boy is my disciple, there are differences between men and women. I can't be negligent."
Taking advantage of the time when Zhao Yun entered the room to change clothes, Ling Ye Lai tidied up her clothes and brushed her hair. She shouted towards the A-room, "I live in the Shui Hua Residence on the west side of the courtyard. You must remember, without my permission, you are not allowed to enter the Shui Hua Residence. If you violate this rule, don't blame me for being ruthless! "
This should reduce a lot of the awkwardness. Her Daoist techniques were exquisite, so she wasn't afraid that Zhao Yun wouldn't listen.
