A few days later, it was a quiet night.
In the courtyard of an inner hall of Qingzong, there is a clear pool with a small bridge over the water.
At the end of the bridge is an ancient pavilion, surrounded by water and a gentle breeze.
"Senior brother!"
There were four people sitting in the pavilion, Chen Qingyuan, Lin Changsheng, Dugu Changkong, and Wu Junyan.
In the past, an immortal Taoist with mysterious origins stirred up the situation, making it difficult for many forces in the empire to find peace. At that time, Chen Qingyuan did not dare to think too much, nor did he deliberately inquire about this information.
With the Qingzong incident, the identity of Taoist Changsheng surfaced.
The return of senior brother made Chen Qingyuan jump for joy, and the joy on his face could not be concealed.
"I'm sorry that these things have been hidden from you."
Lin Changsheng was wearing a white shirt, his eyes were deep, and he had a trimmed beard around his mouth. His long dark hair was tied tightly with a piece of cloth. He was dressed simply, but there was something about him. Create a sense of wonder beyond this world.
"No need to apologize."
Chen Qingyuan shook his head gently. He could see that Lin Changsheng had been under a lot of pressure over the years. Furthermore, everyone has secrets, and there are many things that cannot be revealed.
"Drink tea."
Dugu Changkong's face had many wrinkles, his white hair was sparse, and the twilight was extremely heavy.
Everyone drank tea together and enjoyed the peaceful time.
After chatting for a while, we got down to business.
Each expressed their opinions, what suggestions they had for the future development of Qingzong, and how to face the difficulties that needed to be faced.
The night passed quickly, and only Chen Qingyuan and Wu Junyan were left in the ancient pavilion.
"I didn't expect that we would become members of the same clan."
Chen Qingyuan said with emotion.
Wu Junyan, who was wearing green clothes, looked deeply at Chen Qingyuan, with a faint smile on his lips, and said in a deep voice: "According to seniority, you have to call me uncle."
"..."
For a moment, Chen Qingyuan was speechless.
Some things cannot be avoided after all.
Once upon a time, we experienced life and death and treated each other as brothers. Now, I actually want to call my brother my uncle. How can Chen Qingyuan accept the change in identity and the psychological gap.
"Stop looking so embarrassed, I won't tease you anymore."
Wu Junyan raised the corners of his mouth and joked.
"Tch." Chen Qingyuan gave him a roll of his eyes.
"I heard that Brother Zhangsun is in trouble. It's not a big problem, right?"
Wu Junyan changed the subject.
"It's okay, I won't die for the time being."
Chen Qingyuan said.
"Yeah."
After a period of retreat, Wu Junyan's cultivation level has improved, and he has a deeper understanding of Qingzong's Taoism.
Although Lin Changsheng was talented, he was not as good as his predecessors.
Therefore, with the inheritance of Qingzong and the guidance of Dugu Changkong, he still failed to touch the Shenqiao and was always at the peak of Mahayana.
The inheritance technique forcibly raised Lin Changsheng's realm and exhausted his potential. It also had great side effects, shortening his lifespan.
Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for Lin Changsheng to break the confinement of the inherited forbidden technique, let alone reach the height of Dugu Changkong.
Chen Qingyuan still had one thing left to do, which was to find Lin Changsheng's residence.
"Senior brother, can I come in?"
He stood outside the house and called softly.
"Come in!"
Lin Changsheng finished speaking and the door slowly opened.
When I walked inside the house, there were not many decorations inside, it was very simple.
Lin Changsheng sat aside with a smile on his face: "What's the matter?"
"This is for you."
As he said that, Chen Qingyuan took out a token with the word "green" engraved on it.
Obviously, this was the sect leader's order that Chen Qingyuan unexpectedly received.
Chen Qingyuan had already thought about the destination of this token, and it was the best choice to hand it over to Lin Changsheng.
"This thing..."
Lin Changsheng's expression changed and he was extremely shocked.
Afterwards, Chen Qingyuan told the story of the causes and consequences of the leader's token.
"You have been recognized by the will of your ancestors, so you should hold it!"
Lin Changsheng refused to accept it and said seriously.
"I don't want it." Chen Qingyuan shook his head and said: "You are the master of the sect, and you should be in charge of this matter. Besides, there is no use if I keep it!"
Without giving Lin Changsheng a chance to refuse, Chen Qingyuan turned around and left.
Looking at the tokens on the table, Lin Changsheng thought for a moment and sighed: "There is a long way to go."
...
In the eyes of everyone in the sect, Lin Changsheng has been in a state of seclusion. In fact, the "Lin Changsheng" in the secret room is an incarnation.
Lin Changsheng himself is the head of the Xuan Qing Sect, and now he becomes the head of the Qing Sect, which is natural.
The ceremony for enthroning the throne was very simple. No external forces were invited, but it was just held at the door to announce the ancestors and vow to revive.
There are still many things waiting for Lin Changsheng to deal with. The construction of the sect involves a lot of resources.
If Qingzong wants to develop in the long term, it is far from enough to rely solely on the wealth in the treasure house.
Not to mention anything else, just operating the large spirit gathering array within the sect consumes a large amount of spirit stones.
Of course, Lin Changsheng had obtained many precious resources from various major forces before, so he didn't have to worry about it in the short term.
"Ancestor, many forces have sent messages recently, wanting to inquire about the star."
Fang Qingyun reported.
"Let them investigate!"
Dugu Changkong nodded.
"Yes."
As long as Dugu Changkong survives for a day, no one will dare to risk attacking Qingzong.
The withered star changed drastically and became blood red. The ancient laws spread to all directions, and it was difficult not to attract others' attention.
The various sects are very interested. Before exploring, we must consider the Qing sect and say hello. Otherwise, it would make the old man Dugu Changkong feel unhappy and cause trouble easily.
"Buzz!"
Chen Qingyuan, who was meditating in a secret room, suddenly felt that a jade pendant on his body had a trace of law fluctuation.
So, Chen Qingyuan stopped practicing and quickly checked the reason.
This jade pendant was a gift from the girl in red. The two can be connected, or it can be used as a space artifact to place some important things, such as the silver gun.
"The fifth thing I asked you to do is to go to the old land."
Chen Qingyuan's consciousness entered the jade pendant space, and the voice of the girl in red echoed in his ears.
The last agreement was for Chen Qingyuan to hand over the dragon-shaped jade to a descendant of an old friend.
After that, the girl in red never gave any instructions.
With the emergence of old soil relics, new requirements have arisen.
Obviously, the girl in red seems to have anticipated the differences in this era and is waiting for the relics of the old era.
She let Chen Qingyuan enter, which must have deep meaning.
"What happens after entering?"
Chen Qingyuan asked.
The girl in red didn't answer, and the mysterious space inside the jade pendant was very quiet.
"Old soil..."
In fact, the last time he went with Dugu Changkong, Chen Qingyuan had the idea of inquiring inside.
However, Dugu Changkong believed that the ruins of the old land were full of unknowns and could easily encounter danger, so he should not act recklessly. Therefore, Chen Qingyuan failed to do so and returned home.
