Chen Xingfeng hesitated for a moment, then whispered to me.
"Brother Wu, as I just said, in the world of spiritual practice, the art of Feng Shui is only middling. The one who is truly superior is the Buddhist and Taoist sect. The one who will take the lead today is a concubine from Luofu Mountain. A true disciple of the sect. It is said that his master is highly respected in Luofu and is one of the highest-ranking people under the elders."
Luofu Mountain?
I was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, the "genius Talisman cultivator" that Chen Xingfeng called had a really big background. He was actually a true disciple of the inner sect of Luofu Mountain.
In the Lingnan area, the most powerful one in the cultivation world is the "Two Factions and One Family" - of course, the Zhang family of [Heixia Sword] is considered a hidden force, and it is an evil cultivator in terms of background.
The Taoist Luofu Mountain and the Buddhist Nanhua Temple are both known as one of the "two schools" in Lingnan.
Moreover, it also has a more widely known common name - Maoshan Nanzong!
Yes, the Maoshan sect is divided into the Northern Sect and the Southern Sect.
Among them, the Northern Sect, Maoshan, is the original sect, located in Jurong, Jiangsu, which is also known as the "Maoshan Sect" in a popular sense.
The Southern Sect is a branch sect, which is Luofu Mountain in Guangdong.
Although the Maoshan South Sect is not as good as the Maoshan North Sect, it is also famous in the world of supernatural cultivation, and its overall power is probably on par with Qingcheng Mountain. Of course, in terms of popularity, it may be slightly inferior to Qingcheng Mountain.
The Maoshan Sect among the "Three Giants of Taoism", of course, only refers to the Maoshan North Sect.
Therefore, there are also rumors in the world that if Luofu Mountain, the "Maoshan Nan Sect", is also included in the "Maoshan Sect", its strength will be greatly enhanced, and it will definitely surpass the [Zhongnan Mountain] of the Dan Dao lineage, and completely become the "second Dao Sect". "!
After all, [Longhu Mountain] is so powerful that it is called the "Ancestral Court of the Taoist Sect". Even if the North and South Maoshan are merged, they may not have the confidence to surpass it.
But beyond Zhongnan Mountain, the problem is not big...
But this is impossible!
Because, in fact, the relationship between Maoshan and Luofu Mountain is not very good. It is even said that there are some conflicts!
Although the disciples of the two sects would not fight each other when they met, there would definitely be inevitable bickering and quarrels.
I also don’t understand why sects that clearly share the same origin would be in such trouble.
In short, Luofu Mountain has a very high status!
He is the leader of the Taoist sect in the Lingnan area, and he is also famous throughout China.
To be able to become a true disciple of the inner sect of Luofu Mountain, I think you do have some ability - of course, it's just "some ability".
After all, Duan Chen is still the core disciple of Qingcheng Mountain and the leader of the younger generation of disciples. Isn't he being laughed at by Xiao Yuan and I every day?
Chen Xingfeng looked at my expression. He was surprised at first, and then a little disapproving, so he persuaded me in a low voice.
"Brother Wu, just keep a low profile for a while."
I nodded.
"Don't worry, Uncle Chen. I've always been very low-key. If I hadn't been able to hold back just now, I wouldn't have directly opened my mouth to undermine you, Uncle Chen."
Chen Xingfeng: "..."
He smiled bitterly.
I was curious again.
"But how did the inner disciple of Luofu Mountain get involved with Li Hongye? And why did he come to attend this businessman's dinner?"
Chen Xingfeng explained.
"Because he is originally from the Li family! The Li family in Xiangjiang is a truly wealthy family. It is a huge family with luxuriant branches and numerous members. The person who will be sitting on the throne today is named Li Xunzhi. He was originally just a distant descendant of the Li family. ——It’s further away from the master’s house than Brother Li.”
"But I didn't expect that Li Xuuzhi was born with a talent for cultivation. At the age of thirteen, he learned it on his own without a teacher. He automatically developed the legendary [Qi Sense], opened his yin and yang eyes, and could see ghosts. At the age of fifteen, , at the birthday party of the head of the Li family, he uncovered a rival kid secretly hiding in his house, and was valued by the head of the house. Not only did his parents and family members improve their status in the family, but he himself was also entrusted by the head of the house to find connections and received gifts. I went to Luofu Mountain to practice Taoism."
Uh...good guy!
He's actually a related party? The Li family in Xiangjiang took the initiative to stuff themselves into Luofu Mountain!
But of course, you need to be tough in order to make iron, and Li Xuanzhi himself must be extremely talented. He can generate his own sense of energy by groping, and he can see ghosts with his spiritual sense, and he can also find ghosts without having practiced magic...
It is indeed not too much to call him a "young genius".
"So this Li Xuanzai, how old is he now?"
I asked.
Chen Xingfeng thought for a while.
"He must be twenty-six years old. He has been practicing Taoism in Luofu Mountain for eleven years. I heard that he entered the inner sect not long ago and was accepted as a true disciple. The whole Li family is very happy and hopes that he will go down the mountain and go home. Celebrate.”
I see!
I kind of understand the "real purpose" of Li Hongye's hosting of this dinner...
Because Fu Lu monks are different from Alchemy monks, Fu Lu monks are not afraid of meat and wine, and can also marry and have children. Apart from practicing magic and pursuing the great road, they are no different from normal people.
Alchemy monks are different. They do not eat meat, cannot marry and have children, and have to go to the mountains to practice hard for a long time - so my master once said that only fools would join the Alchemy sect.
Since Luofu Mountain is the Maoshan Southern Sect, it belongs to the Shangqing Fulu Sect just like the Maoshan Sect. The disciples in the sect are relatively free and can provide shelter and help to the family.
Li Xuanzhi became a true disciple of the inner sect, and he probably wanted to go down the mountain and go home.
Not only to improve his reputation in the Li family and make the head of the family like him more, but also to consider the status of his parents and family in the clan.
Within the wealthy families, the relationships are also very complicated and the power struggle is fierce.
Especially in a place like Xiangjiang that has not been completely baptized by the new society, its prosperity is accompanied by deep-rooted feudal family traditions and customs.
Li Hongye was probably Li Xuanzai's close friend within the family, and the two had an "alliance" relationship.
"Uncle Chen, does he know what level of cultivation Li Xuanzai is now?"
Chen Xingfeng waved his hand.
"How would I know? Li Xunzhi and I are not familiar with each other. What's more, even if we are familiar with each other, I still don't understand. As a Feng Shui master, how can I understand the realm of Fulu Taoist priests? Do you understand, Mr. Wu?"
"Well, haha..."
I laughed, didn't say anything, and just brushed it off casually.
Chen Xingfeng didn't think much and didn't ask further questions.
About ten minutes later.
Li Hongye's cell phone rang, he picked it up and whispered a few words with a happy expression.
After hanging up, stand up.
"Everyone, I have to excuse myself for a moment. Come on, Brother Chen, come downstairs with me to pick up today's protagonist."
After saying that, he stood up and left the table temporarily.
"OK."
Chen Xingfeng said hello to me and got up to follow Li Hongye.
Watching their hurried away figures, I touched my chin and thought to myself.
"Just a true disciple of the inner sect... Could a disciple of a famous sect be so majestic? No wonder Duan Chen is so arrogant on weekdays, surrounded by countless friends. Tsk tsk, I usually look down on him. Him."
You know, Duan Chen's status in Qingcheng Mountain is much higher than Li Xuanzhi's status in Luofu Mountain!
