The white-haired old man was dressed in linen clothes. He looked ordinary. His clothes were even simpler than those of Li Cangqiong. Just looking at his appearance, you couldn't tell any difference at all.
Zhou Xuan was slightly surprised.
If he hadn't felt the vague aura of the white-haired old man, it would be difficult for him to know how extraordinary the white-haired old man was.
This old man is probably the old mountain master of Qiyun Holy Mountain.
"Junior pays homage to the old mountain master."
Zhou Xuan showed respect and bowed to the old mountain master.
The old mountain master's hair was neatly styled, and his eyes were sparkling. He looked at Zhou Xuan with a hint of admiration, smiled and nodded, accepting Zhou Xuan's greeting.
"Not bad, very good."
"Your name is Zhou Xuan. Palace Master Wu wanted to take you back just now. You are from Great Qin. Why don't you leave with Palace Master Wu and stay in Qiyun Holy Mountain instead?"
The old mountain master seemed to be asking a casual question, but it actually meant something profound.
Zhou Xuan pondered for a moment, a little uncomfortable with the answer, and then he spoke seriously.
"This junior is a human being first, and then a person of Great Qin."
"In order to protect this junior, Qiyun Holy Mountain did not hesitate to confront Palace Master Wu like this. No matter what the result is, no matter what the process is, it is already a great favor to this junior."
"Since it is a great favor, you should treat it with caution."
"If you ignore this kindness, how can you be a human being?"
Zhou Xuan's answer was almost exactly what he said to Wu Yuncang.
The old mountain master's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he asked again: "It's a bit interesting, but you should also know in your heart that if it weren't for your extraordinary talent, Qiyun Holy Mountain would definitely not keep you."
When Li Cangqiong heard this, his face suddenly filled with black lines.
He thought to himself that if his children had such thoughts, wouldn't it be a good thing if they were willing to stay in Qiyun Holy Mountain?
Master, why do you say everything?
However, the person standing in front of him was Master, so he could only remain silent.
"Back to the old mountain master, it is said that a gentleman does not care about his heart, but since Qiyun Holy Mountain is willing to protect the younger generation, no matter what the purpose is, it is a kindness to the younger generation."
Zhou Xuan was silent for a while, and then responded seriously.
The old mountain master's eyes brightened, and then he laughed loudly: "Okay, that's a good answer. I haven't seen such a junior for a long time. No wonder Wu Yuncang thinks so highly of you!"
Zhou Xuan was a little stiff and at a loss.
Li Cangqiong's eyes were full of joy, and he could see that the old mountain master liked Zhou Xuan, which was undoubtedly a good thing!
"In this case, you will come to worship me as a disciple of Qiyun Holy Mountain."
The old mountain master coughed, his smile gradually stopped, and he became more serious: "You remember, if you are a disciple of my Qiyun Holy Mountain, you should help the strong and strengthen the weak, and stabilize your heart."
"Don't use the big to bully the small and run rampant in the world, otherwise Qiyun Holy Mountain will get rid of such villains."
"Don't worry, there is no war between Qin and Northern Qi, and there is no conflict between Qiyun Holy Mountain and Qingtian Martial Palace. I think you will not run into Qin's practitioners, so there is no need to disturb yourself."
Zhou Xuan looked carefully and bowed respectfully.
"Disciple understands."
Both the old mountain master and Li Cangqiong showed happy smiles on their faces. Naturally, Tan Mian heard Zhou Xuan call himself a "disciple" instead of a junior, which meant that Zhou Xuan had become a disciple of Qiyun Holy Mountain.
This is a beautiful thing.
Zhou Xuan is indeed very serious about this.
He was born in the Zhou family, which was not considered a sect, and he had never joined any sect in the future. He originally thought he would be one of the five major martial arts houses in the Qin Dynasty, but he ended up at Qiyun Holy Mountain by chance.
He has a very good impression of Qiyun Holy Mountain and is naturally serious about it.
"You have good bones, but what is your talent?"
The old mountain master's face was full of joy and he gradually changed the topic. He saw Zhou Xuan's extraordinary ability and wanted to cultivate him well.
Zhou Xuan pondered for a while, but it was difficult to respond.
He thought for a while: "I don't know what level my talent is, but I have never been defeated in the same realm, so I guess it shouldn't be very weak."
"There are many people in the same realm who have never been defeated, and each person's environment is different."
The old mountain master was obviously well-informed and laughed.
"You are quite talented. Naturally, you are one of the more outstanding young people on your side. It is difficult for others to match you. However, this may not be the case in another place."
Zhou Xuan was afraid that the old mountain master would misunderstand, so he added three more words.
"Within the great realm, I have never been defeated."
The old mountain master's smile froze and his eyelids twitched. He suddenly had a very terrifying suspicion. He sensed Zhou Xuan's fifth-level cultivation and asked cautiously.
"Do you often fight against high-level people?"
"There should be no one I have fought with who is truly at the same level as me. It should be said that there is no one who is at the same level as me..."
Zhou Xuan paused slightly, with no trace of pride on his face, as if he was just describing a fact that had definitely happened: "A person like that never makes his disciples feel even the slightest bit threatened."
The old mountain master took a deep breath and his expression completely changed.
He is well-informed and has naturally seen many young geniuses. Many geniuses are invincible at the same level when their level is not high. After all, Northern Qi is too big.
even.
Most of the disciples of Qiyun Holy Mountain were at least in the top three when they returned to their respective families, and many of them could not meet any opponents.
However.
Most of the same realms here are still small realms.
There are nine whole heavens in a great realm, the first and ninth heavens, and their strength can be described as one heaven and one earth. Therefore, there are not many people who dare to say that they are invincible in the great realm.
It’s nothing more than you yourself being the limit of that great realm.
Zhou Xuan only has the cultivation level of the fifth heaven, but he dares to say that he is invincible in the same realm!
The old mountain master is well-informed and has rarely seen such a character!
He was deeply aware that the Zhou Xuan in front of him meant what he said. He did not look like someone who would brag or betray himself. He would say something that he had never encountered an opponent in the same realm. There must be some basis for it.
At least.
Zhou Xuan met people who strengthened his cultivation a lot.
"The strongest person you have ever met, what state is he in?"
The old mountain master reacted quickly and immediately asked, wanting to know clearly Zhou Xuan's ultimate strength at the moment.
Li Cangqiong thought about it and interrupted.
"Master, I have never seen him fight, but I heard from Chen Mo that Zhou Xuan fought at the same level as Junior Brother Xiao Meng, and he defeated Junior Brother Xiao Meng."
These words were all told by Chen Mo to Li Cangqiong. He practiced in seclusion and never saw the scene outside.
He naturally believed Chen Mo's words, otherwise he would not have stopped Wu Yunchang.
"What?!"
When the old mountain master heard this, a look of horror suddenly appeared on his face. He knew best how talented Xiao Meng was. There were probably not many people in the same Tongqiao territory who could defeat Xiao Meng.
However……
The Zhou Xuan in front of him actually defeated Xiao Meng by using his fifth-level cultivation!
