The moon and stars are sparse, and the breeze blows.
Xu Yue slowly walked out of the ancestral hall, his body having recovered a lot.
At the foot of the mountain, bright bonfires were lit, and there were sparse sounds of discussion. It was the disciples who were gathering together to talk about scriptures and Taoism.
Xu Yue took a deep breath of the night wind and felt a little cold in his teeth. Then he determined the direction and walked towards the mountainside.
Before, Cheng Moyuan asked him to go there tonight.
The sect leader's cave is halfway up the mountain, adjacent to the stone forest where the sect's strong men retreat.
Xu Yue arrived here with ease, and then found a fairly grand mansion on the edge of a cliff.
"Sect Master, Xu Yue pays my respects." Xu Yue knocked on the door.
With a creak, the door opened, and Xu Yue stepped in without thinking much.
At this time, Cheng Moyuan was standing in front of a bookcase, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, lowering his head to read, with a solemn expression.
Seeing this, Xu Yue didn't bother him. He just sat aside and picked up the teapot on the table and took a few sips.
After a while, Cheng Moyuan put the bamboo slips back, and then walked over with a sigh.
"Is the sect leader confused?" Xu Yue asked with a smile.
Cheng Moyuan glanced at him and said intriguingly: "There are three confusions. I asked you to come here today to solve them."
Hearing this, Xu Yue straightened his body: "Sect Master, please speak, Xu Yue is listening attentively."
Cheng Moyuan nodded and slowly walked to the window. With a gentle push, the night wind from the cliff poured in, making the papers in the room rattle.
Looking at the thousands of Lingjian Sect disciples at the foot of the mountain, Cheng Moyuan asked: "How will the Lingjian Sect deal with you after you leave?"
Xu Yue also came to the window and said with a smile: "The small tables and chairs have grown up. Can the Lingjian Sect continue to operate even without me?"
Cheng Moyuan shook his head: "The sect has newly merged with the Tianjue Sect, and encountered difficulties caused by the envoys of Emperor Yidi Mountain. Although Pang Zhuo and others have made progress, they still cannot solve these problems."
Speaking of this, Cheng Moyuan suddenly remembered someone and asked: "By the way, Liu Ang of Tianjue Sect, what do you think?"
Xu Yue paused, nodded and affirmed: "Well, this person is quick-thinking and tactful, and he stood up when the emperor's envoys made things difficult before. He is a pretty good person... The monks who originally used him to manage Tianjue Sect were the most popular. what a pity."
"Oh?" Cheng Moyuan looked interested: "You want to take him away?"
Xu Yue nodded and said with a smile: "After what happened last time, the cultivators of Tianjue Sect have recognized our sect. With time, even if Liu Ang is no longer in the sect, they will slowly accept the reality."
Cheng Moyuan pondered for a while, then stared into Xu Yue's eyes and said tentatively: "Even if the matter of Tian Juezong is solved, the emperor's envoy..."
Xu Yue smiled mysteriously and said, "That day I seemed to see the emperor's envoy heading towards the western sky."
Cheng Moyuan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately stopped mentioning the matter, turned around and walked back to the house.
At the same time, the stone in his heart also dropped.
"Okay, second question, who is Wang Ba and how did you get to know him?" Cheng Moyuan said solemnly.
Xu Yue was stunned and said casually: "We met in Tianqing Sea before. Why did the sect master ask this?"
Cheng Moyuan put down his tea cup and said with a solemn expression: "Suddenly there is such a strong person in the sect. As the sect leader, shouldn't I take care of him?"
Xu Yue understood, smiled and waved his hand: "If this is the case, Sect Master, don't worry! Although Wang Ba is usually unreliable, he also has a life-long friendship with me. My elder is his elder, and my The sect is also its sect.”
"Oh, your elder is also its elder?" Cheng Moyuan thought of the little Cheng biting each other, and couldn't help laughing.
Seeing this, Xu Yue could only scratch his head and said: "In short, the sect master can rest assured that it will be fine. You can absolutely trust it."
Somewhere in the back mountain, Wang Ba impatiently plucked his ears and muttered: "You are still mistaking your elders for me, bah."
After saying that, it moved comfortably, feeling much better than before.
In the cave, seeing Xu Yue's assurance, Cheng Moyuan nodded silently, and then closed all the doors and windows in the room.
"Sect Master, why is it so secretive?" Xu Yue asked with a smile.
However, Cheng Moyuan just turned around slowly and looked at him expressionlessly.
"Zong...sect leader?"
Xu Yue's expression changed and his voice trembled, like a naughty child meeting an angry parent.
With a swish sound, Cheng Moyuan grabbed a stick in his hand and shook it continuously.
"The third question."
Cheng Moyuan's voice was very cold, as if he was suppressing his anger: "If you don't answer honestly, I will have to clean up the house today."
With a grunt, Xu Yue swallowed and subconsciously wanted to grab the door and escape.
But Cheng Moyuan didn't give him this chance, and stepped forward again, looking down at Xu Yue from a high position.
Xu Yue looked at the murderous look in the old man's eyes, then looked at the thick ring stick, and sweat began to form on his forehead.
"Sect Master, I wonder what my disciple has done?" Xu Yue asked fearfully.
The Wang Ba in the back mountain immediately cheered up and listened to the conversation here with all his concentration.
"Let me ask you, have you ever accepted any apprentices?" Cheng Mo Yuanhan said.
"apprentice?"
Xu Yue was confused, and faces quickly flashed through his mind, from Nanling to the Sea of Clear Sky, from the Lingjian Sect to the Akatsuki Organization, from a hundred years ago to now.
"Sect Master, it seems that I have never accepted any disciples!"
As soon as Xu Yue finished speaking, the ring stick was smashed down with a sound of breaking through the air.
"Ding! The detected age difference with the current enemy is about..."
"The host has changed its hostile relationship and its cultivation has returned to normal."
Xu Yue didn't want to confront Cheng Moyuan, so he hurriedly calmed down the soaring cultivation level in his body and received a solid blow.
Ouch!
Xu Yue suddenly grinned in pain and wailed: "Sect Master, I really don't remember! If you have anything to do, just tell me!"
Cheng Moyuan's anger was completely ignited. He kept swinging the stick in his hand and scolded: "You unkind and unjust thing! You have forgotten everything I taught you, haven't you?"
Xu Yue kept dodging. If he couldn't dodge, he would have to bear it, but he didn't fight back.
Cheng Moyuan's old eyes were red, and he yelled while beating him: "It's a good thing for you to accept disciples and preach, but why do you abandon them all the time? In the end, you raped the little girl! I can't kill you today..."
"What the hell!"
Xu Yue stopped immediately, stood up and took the ring stick.
boom!
At this moment, the door of the cave was suddenly blasted open, and sawdust flew and shattered all over the floor.
Cheng Moyuan looked in surprise and saw the old turtle rushing in at an extremely fast speed. Then he lay down next to Xu Yue and asked, "Fuck Brother Xu, were you such a beast before?"
"roll!"
Xu Yue was in no mood to mess around with it at this time, because he had already thought of a name in his mind.
Blue as smoke.
