I am Zhao Zhijing, a poor Taoist priest, and I have disciples all over the world.

Chapter 251 Unintentional intervention
The Wudang Sect descended all the way down from Guangmingding, only to find that two elders from the Huashan Sect, Yue Yuntao and He Songyan, were waiting for them at the foot of the mountain.

Xian Yutong should have taken the antidote, but he was still in a state of weakness and was being held by two disciples to prevent him from escaping.

"Master Song."

Yue Yuntao took the initiative to step forward and greeted him. As he was an elder of Huashan Sect, Song Yuanqiao and others naturally could not neglect him and they returned the greetings one after another.

"Young Master Song, please spare me a moment to talk."

The Huashan Patriarch's Order is in Song Qingshu's hands. This time, not only the other five sects, but even the Ming Cult has seen it clearly. If it is not returned one day, everyone in the Huashan Sect will have trouble sleeping and eating.

Not only was he worried that if he was not careful, the Patriarch's token would be lost in the world again, but he was also afraid that it would attract people with ulterior motives who would seize it and use the token to put the Huashan Sect in an irretrievable situation.

"Young Master Song, where did you get the order from? Please tell me."

How could Song Qingshu not know what he was thinking, but he would not hand over the ancestor's order no matter what.

"The ancestral home of the Guan family in Xianyang City, gifted by the Guan family's ancestor himself."

"In addition, I am also required to find the descendants of the brothers and sisters of the former Huashan Sect Master Liu to revive the reputation of the Huashan Sect!"

Yue Yuntao was shocked. According to this statement, the ancestral order could never be retrieved. However, considering Song Qingshu's age, he could say that it was given by the ancestor of the Guan family, which could not be false.

"This"

Yue Yuntao didn't know what to do, but his fellow apprentice He Songyan beside him said carelessly: "Brother, what's the problem? Young Master Song comes from a famous family and is a top disciple of the Wudang Sect. Not only is his martial arts outstanding, but his appearance is also extraordinary."

"Besides, he was entrusted by the Guan family's ancestor, so it can be said that he is legitimate. We should all obey his orders!"

Yue Yuntao's face suddenly darkened. This junior brother was usually not serious. How could the Huashan Sect, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, fall into the hands of outsiders?
"Over the years, Huashan Sect has indeed not produced any outstanding talents, and now this bastard Xian Yutong has been completely humiliated."

"But this is ultimately my Huashan Sect's business. It is inappropriate for Young Master Song to lead us as a disciple of the Wudang Sect."

Song Qingshu didn't want to argue with him any more, so he simply said, "Elder Yue, there is no need to say more. You should be loyal to someone who has entrusted you with a task. Now that you and I are far away in the desert of the Western Regions, it is too early to talk about these things."

"It won't be too late to discuss it after we return to Huashan."

Yue Yuntao felt even more embarrassed when he saw Song Qingshu's tough attitude, but he couldn't just snatch it away in front of him, so he had to bow and say, "Yes, it's all up to Young Master Song."

"However, this ancestor's order is as important to us as Mount Tai. It's another long way to go back to Wudang Mountain and Huashan Mountain. I hope you can be kind enough to let us follow you so that we can take care of you."

There was nothing wrong with this suggestion. When they were at Guangmingding, Song Qingshu reminded everyone more than once that the Mongolian court's troops would ambush the various sects on their way back. As for how much the other sects would listen to him, that depended on their luck.

"That's great. I'll go say hello to my father right away."

Song Yuanqiao and the others naturally had no objection to traveling with the Huashan Sect. However, Song Yuanqiao's status and position made it difficult for him to decide the ownership of the Huashan Patriarch Order. It would be better for him to return to Wudang Mountain and ask his master to make the decision.

The two sects came to one place. The people of Wudang sect were worried about Yin Liting's safety and started looking for him everywhere.

However, the yellow sand was so vast that no trace could be left. Finding someone was as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack. So he had to head east first to see if he could meet someone along the way.

However, Song Qingshu knew Yin Liting's situation, and he did not stop him at that time because he wanted to avoid interfering with this marriage. He would rescue Yin Liting when Zhang Wuji led the Ming Cult members down the mountain.

The group traveled dozens of miles that day and camped in the desert that night. A female disciple from the Huashan Sect made a fire and cooked. Because of Song Qingshu, she was extremely respectful and attentive to the people from the Wudang Sect. Late that night, everyone had gone to bed, and only the disciple on duty was silently looking at the bright stars in the sky in the gusts of wind and sand.

The spectacular scene is quite different from that in the Central Plains. The stars above your head flow like the Milky Way, winding all the way from the sky above your head to the depths of the desert at the end of your sight.

It was midnight, and Song Qingshu was still looking at the starry sky quietly. Suddenly, he heard a series of crisp tinkling sounds in his ears. He was immediately moved and stood up to look in the direction where the sound came from.

"who?"

As the sound got closer, the disciples of the two factions who were on night watch also heard it. Soon, they saw a small figure moving quickly in the moonlight, and soon came in front of everyone.

"Son."

Xiao Zhao was running with a bag on his back, sweating all over his forehead. It must be the shackles inside that made the noise.

Everyone had seen Xiao Zhao on Guangmingding, so when they found out it was her, there was nothing to worry about. Instead, there was a different meaning in their eyes when they looked at Song Qingshu.

Xiao Zhao had been rushing here with both anticipation and anxiety in her heart. She was afraid that she might have misunderstood and would be immediately driven away after finding Song Qingshu. She was even more afraid that she had gone in the wrong direction and would never see him again.

Fortunately, Song Qingshu was looking at him with a smile in his eyes at this moment, just like the day when he escaped from the secret passage of the Ming Cult. All the grievances and hardships he had just felt disappeared in an instant.

"Master, wherever you go, Xiao Zhao will follow you!"

Xiao Zhao was very excited, with tears in her eyes. If there hadn't been other people around, she would have thrown herself into Song Qingshu's arms.

"Qingshu."

Song Yuanqiao also woke up from his sleep. Seeing that it was this little girl who followed him, he was a little unsure for a moment.

Because of his fifth brother Zhang Cuishan, Song Yuanqiao and his fellow disciples all harbored grudges against the Ming Cult and the Sky Eagle Cult. If he had not married Yin Susu, Zhang Cuishan would have been the most accomplished one in the Wudang Sect.

However, given Song Yuanqiao's status, it was not convenient for him to criticize a little girl harshly, so he could only remind his son not to be misled by women.

"Xiao Zhao, there are several female disciples in Huashan Sect. You can rest with them tonight. I will find a suitable place to accommodate you after we return to Central Plains."

Xiao Zhao was delighted to see that Song Qingshu and Song Yuanqiao did not chase her away. She nodded heavily, bowed respectfully to everyone, and went to rest.

The little episode was over, and everyone went to rest. The female disciples of Huashan Sect saw that Xiao Zhao was pretty and beautiful, and that Song Qingshu had personally made the arrangements, so they could guess the relationship between the two without much explanation and naturally took good care of her.

However, Xiao Zhao had always been Yang Buhui's maid, and she was a little uncomfortable with the sudden care.

"Big brother."

Zhang Songxi saw that Song Yuanqiao looked unhappy and guessed that he was worried about Song Qingshu and Xiao Zhao. He smiled and advised: "The child is grown up. Our Wudang Sect does not prohibit our disciples from getting married. I don't think this is a big deal."

"If you are worried that this Xiao Zhao is not a good person, just wait and see along the way."

Mo Shenggu on the side said, "I don't think this girl is a good match. Zhou Zhiruo from the Emei Sect is gentle and refined, and she is an old friend of Qingshu. She is a perfect match."
