Zhu Xian: Get ten times the talent, the sword opens the gate of heaven

Chapter 374 Little Bamboo Peak, Meeting Naiqi

"You brat, you've actually reached the supreme realm, Taiqing!"

Wan Jianyi stared at Zhang Xiaofan in disbelief, his eyes filled with horror.

Zhang Xiaofan spread his hands and said:
"Just lucky, just lucky."

"What a load of bull!" Wan Jianyi said.

"I thought that although your talent was amazing, you had spent more time cultivating your magic power to be extremely profound, and you should only be at the half-step Taiqing level at the moment."

"Unexpectedly, he has already reached the Taiqing realm."

"I haven't even broken through to the Taiqing realm yet, but you've already reached it. Can we still get along peacefully... huh?"

Suddenly, Wan Jianyi looked out of the courtyard and said:
"You brought another person with you?"

"Mm," Zhang Xiaofan replied.

"Who is it?" Wan Jianyi asked.

Zhang Xiaofan looked out into the courtyard and called out:
"Come out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall, robust, and imposing middle-aged Taoist priest with white hair stepped forward.

“Cangsong…” Wan Jianyi looked at the Taoist priest who walked in and asked in surprise.

Cangsong walked step by step into the ancestral hall, stopping a meter away from Wan Jianyi. Looking at Wan Jianyi before him, he wept with joy, saying:
"Senior Brother Wan, you're still alive!"

At this point, Cangsong suddenly remembered something, and with a thud, he knelt down on the ground, his face full of guilt and self-reproach, saying:
"Senior Brother Wan, I'm sorry to you, I'm sorry to Qingyun Sect, and I'm sorry to the Qingyun disciples who died."

Wan Jianyi looked down at Cangsong kneeling on the ground, his eyes filled with complex emotions, lost in thought.

He knew the enormity of Cangsong's mistake; he was arguably the greatest traitor in the history of the Qingyun Sect.

This resulted in the deaths of two chief disciples, hundreds of disciples, and even the Qingyun Sect Leader was severely injured and barely survived.

However, Cangsong did all of this for Wan Jianyi.

It is clear that in Cangsong's heart, his senior brother Wan was more important than anything else.

"Sigh..." Wan Jianyi sighed heavily and said:
"What's past is past, no need to dwell on it, get up!"

Upon hearing this, Cangsong did not rise, but remained kneeling before Wan Jianyi, and said:

"Senior Brother Wan, I am guilty. I am not worthy to stand up. Let me speak while kneeling."

"Hmph!" Wan Jianyi snorted, his voice slightly cold.
"Does this mean you're not even listening to your senior brother anymore?"

“No…” Cangsong shook his head hurriedly, and stood up quickly, like a child who had done something wrong and was being scolded by his elders.

Wan Jianyi looked at Cangsong, whose hair was white, and said:

"Go and offer incense to the venerable ancestors!"

"Offer incense?" Cangsong murmured, looking at the memorial tablets of the patriarchs, and thinking of his junior brother and hundreds of disciples who died because of him, he trembled as he said:
"Am I... still qualified to offer incense?"

Wan Jianyi patted Cangsong on the shoulder and said:

"If you are sincere, you can offer incense."

Upon hearing this, Cangsong looked at the ancestral tablets in front of him and felt his steps become incredibly heavy.

With difficulty, I lifted my foot and took a step; with difficulty, I lifted my foot again and took another step.

Those three or four meters felt like an eternity to the pine tree as it struggled to reach the incense altar.

He picked up three incense sticks, lit them, bowed deeply three times, and finally placed the incense sticks on the incense bank.

After lighting the incense, she slowly turned her head, tears streaming down her face.

Wan Jianyi looked at Cangsong Zhenren and suddenly asked:
"Why did you decide to come back to Qingyun Sect?"

Master Cangsong looked at Zhang Xiaofan and said:
“This time, when the Beast God attacked the mountain, I originally intended to use another scheme to destroy Qingyun and avenge you, my senior brother.”

“However, Zhang Xiaofan found me yesterday and told me everything that happened three hundred years ago. Only then did Cangsong realize that you were still alive, and only then did he learn about everything that our sect leader had done back then.” Zhang Xiaofan looked outside; it was already dusk.

He thought of Naiqi; since he had rarely come back, he had to go and see his first wife.

So Zhang Xiaofan looked at Wan Jianyi and said:

"Old Wan, you guys chat first. I have other things to do, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Wan Jian glanced at Zhang Xiaofan and said in an annoyed tone:
"What could you possibly be up to? I bet you're just going to see some pretty girls."

Zhang Xiaofan gave Wan Jianyi a thumbs-up and smiled:
"Old Wan understands me best. I'm off!"

After saying that, Zhang Xiaofan's figure blurred, turning into a blur as he sped away into the distance.

Seeing this scene, and recalling everything he had overheard outside the door, Master Cangsong exclaimed in surprise:
"Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaofan has already reached the supreme realm of Taiqing in just seventeen years of cultivation!"

"Even the Qingye Ancestor of yesteryear was nothing more than this."

“You’re wrong!” Wan Jianyi shook his head and said:
"This kid's talent far surpasses that of Ancestor Qingye."

"Moreover, I believe he has the potential to become an immortal."

"Become an immortal?" Master Cangsong's eyes widened in disbelief.
"No one in the world can become an immortal, not even the brilliant and talented Ancestor Qingye. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaofan actually has the hope of becoming an immortal..."

"Of course!" Wan Jianyi said, his hands behind his back.

"Moreover, this kid was once completely possessed by demons, and I just discovered that his physique is now even stronger than that of a Spirit Lord."

"What surprised me even more was that Xiao Fan actually possessed treasures like the Xuanhuo Mirror and the Blood Soul Sword, which showed that he had great fortune..."

……

night!
Moon-Viewing Terrace!
Lu Xueqi was dressed in white, her figure graceful and her temperament aloof, like a fairy untouched by worldly affairs.

The bright moonlight shone down on her, revealing her fair skin, whiter than snow, with a faint, cool glow under the moonlight, as if it were the essence of ice and snow.

"Tap tap... tap tap..."

Footsteps could be heard coming from the bamboo grove nearby.

Senior Sister Wenmin, dressed in a long blue dress, walked over.

Her pectoral muscles were exceptionally well-developed, and coupled with the particularly nourishing water of Xiaozhu Peak, she truly lived up to her title as the senior sister of Xiaozhu Peak; her immense evil was comparable to that of Lu Xueqi.

Wen Min walked to Lu Xueqi's side, looked at her face which was cold yet filled with sorrow, and sighed:
"Xueqi, are you still thinking about Zhang Xiaofan?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqi's clear, cold voice rang out:

"What are you saying, senior sister? No, I didn't."

"Hmph!" Wen Min snorted lightly and said:

"When you first came to Xiaozhufeng, you were just a baby in my arms. I raised you with tears and snot all the way, and I didn't even know you."

A slight smile appeared on Lu Xueqi's cool and beautiful face as she said:
"Senior sister, I don't have a snotty nose."

"Haha..." Wen Min laughed, a wicked laugh that sent shivers down her spine, and said:
"Isn't this just a metaphor? In the blink of an eye, the little girl who used to follow behind me has grown up."

"Moreover, she's also experiencing puberty."

Lu Xueqi turned around, looked into the distance, and said:

"Senior sister, you're always talking about me. I know that someone has been thinking about Senior Brother Song from Dazhu Peak. Moreover, just a few days ago, Uncle Tian and Uncle Su even brought Senior Brother Song to propose marriage."

"So, did it work?"

"Sigh!" Wenmin sighed with a worried expression, and said:
"They've come at the worst possible time. Your master loves you the most. He was just worrying about your love life a few days ago, and now they've come to propose marriage."

"In addition, Uncle Tian and Master were already at odds, and Master was in a bad mood, so he directly kicked Uncle Tian and Senior Brother Song out of Xiaozhu Peak!"
