Mang Shusheng's Ink Painting Practice

Chapter 193: Simple and Rough

Qiu Yuzi went up to the ground "shamelessly". When a powerful Yangshen said seriously that he wanted to be the leader, it was difficult for other people with less cultivation to object.

But there was someone who objected, and that was Baicaosou, the man who always spoke a beat late.

“No… that’s not right…”

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and his eyes widened a little, as if he realized that the timing of his speech was not right.

Qiu Yuzi looked at him calmly with a straight face and said, "Oh? What's wrong?"

He hadn't been an official for so many years in vain. The strong aura of a superior was overwhelming. Even though he hadn't become a leader yet, he already made people feel that this was what a leader should be like.

Baicaosou finally managed to utter a coherent sentence: "Leader... the leader of a sect, you must, must be of some benefit to the others in the sect..."

Qiu Yuzi laughed when he heard this and said nothing more.

Sect Master Xuanfeng said with a smile, "It is because of Junior Brother Qiu Yuzi's agreement that our Sword Sect was able to learn the divine swords passed down by the two ancestors from the Danqing Sect. This is the greatest benefit to our Sword Sect."

He looked at Sect Master Lian Guang and said, "Junior Sister Lian Guang, we will discuss these two divine swords together later. However, I'm afraid we will have to trouble Dan Qing Sect with many things in the future."

Book and sword, the better the calligraphy, the more powerful it is... So if the disciples of the Sword Sect want to learn it, they probably have to practice calligraphy well with the Danqing Sect.

Upon hearing this, the Lotus Light Sect Master said, "That is a great favor. It seems that my Sword Sect has no objection to Senior Brother Qiu Yuzi becoming the Sect Leader."

Zeon announced the Hunjinbaodan as a means of showing favor.

But he never expected that Danqingmen had already sent the sword manual to Jianzong!

For sword practitioners, sword manuals are obviously more attractive than elixirs.

What made him even more panic was that both the Yangling Sword Sect and the Chunyang Sword Sect favored Qiu Yuzi, which meant that the sword lineage and the literary lineage stood together.

The Chunyang Sect has only three lineages!

Although Jiong believed that the core of the Pure Yang inheritance was the Danding meridian, he still felt very uncomfortable because the other two meridians were completely opposed to him.

But the current situation seems to be somewhat unsolvable, and the people around me who can provide help are really not very helpful...

He cleared his throat helplessly and said, "Qiu Yuzi, what I mean is that those of us who are the sect leaders of this generation are already old, and it's almost time for us to step down and let others take over. Why bother fighting for the position of leader?"

"It would be better to choose from among the young people below, so as to bring new vitality to our university."

Among the seven leaders, only Zeon can compete with Akiyuko.

But now he had lost the initiative, and if he continued to fight, he would be at a clear disadvantage... He simply chose to play against Qiu Yuzi.

It would be better if the headmaster and his group of people were not allowed to be the leader, and a young and talented person could be chosen instead.

To be honest, this proposal is very destructive...if Qiu Yuzi really wants to be the leader.

Zeon and others expected that Chuuqiu Yuzi would show anger. Even if he didn't show his emotions, there would be some fluctuations, right?

But Qiu Yuzi's fluctuations left them completely confused.

He smiled softly and said, "Indeed, I will probably ascend to heaven soon. It would be really troublesome to have to find another talented person after serving as the leader for a few years. It would be better to choose a young person so that we can assist each other."

As soon as these words came out, before anyone else could react, Jingxu Zhenren from the Jingyuan Sect's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but say, "I look forward to discussing the Dao with you, Junior Brother."

The Jingyuan Sect has never been concerned with worldly affairs. They only care about practicing inner alchemy. They seem to be focused, but in fact they have a sense of isolation.

However, they looked down on all other sects of the same religion, believing that the essence of Chunyang lies in the Dan Ding, and the essence of the Dan Ding lies in the Jingyuan.

However, he had already been interested when Qiu Yuzi showed his Yangshen cultivation. Now, he heard that he had a great chance of ascending to become an immortal... This made Master Jingxu unable to contain himself.

Qiu Yuzi's cultivation level made him not want to compete with her at all. He just wanted to communicate with Qiu Yuzi and gain an understanding of alchemy to help his own practice.

Therefore, now even a "traitor" has appeared in the Pure Yang Dan Ding meridian.

But the "traitors" in the Danding Sect are more than just the Jingyuan Sect. Don't forget that the Zhenyi Sect has always been very close to the other two sects!
Zeon instantly realized that he had completely fallen into the opponent's rhythm.

If he had not been on guard before, he would now understand that the plan he had set up was full of mistakes and that he would most likely be taken advantage of by this annoying guy in front of him.

Zeon decided to cut his losses, as he couldn't be led by Akiyuko anymore.

He thought for a moment and said, "Qiu Yuzi, it is truly a blessing for our Chunyang Sect that you have this good fortune."

"However, you are right. The position of the leader should not be changed frequently... Why not let Hui girl be the leader? She is the descendant of the True One Dao, a True One Fairy, and she is young and talented enough. I believe you, Qiu Yuzi, will not object, right?"

Indeed, no one could object to Fairy Zhenyi being the leader, because almost all the sects among the three veins and seven gates had received the favor of Zhenyi.

But Huigu herself knew that she could not handle it no matter what.

How can she manage the Chunyang Sect as she is alone?

I am afraid that after losing its transcendent status, it will be manipulated as a puppet by some people with ulterior motives.

She quickly said, "My cultivation is too low to bear the name of Zhenyi Dao. Today, I am just observing the ceremony. No matter who becomes the leader, I will follow their lead."

She seemed very humble and didn't want to get involved in this big trouble at all.

However, Jiong was not willing to let her go, because Zhenyi Dao, who also belonged to the Danding Vein, turned around and became Jiong's best shield at this time... no matter what Huigu herself thought.

He said, "Don't worry, Hui girl. I'll protect you from the wind and rain. There won't be any difficulties."

Hui Gu showed a very helpless look. She didn't want anyone to shelter her from the wind and rain. She just wanted to get rid of this big trouble!

She said quickly, "Grandmaster, please let me go. I absolutely cannot bear this heavy burden."

She tried to refuse, but Zeon had his eyes set on her.

Qiu Yuzi really couldn't say much at this time, because he was naturally willing to help Huigu because of the favor he received from Zhen Yidao, but precisely because of this, he couldn't openly oppose Zhen Yidao... This matter became a dilemma.

This Zeon is indeed difficult to deal with. It is true that the old man who refuses to die is a thief.

At this time, Huigu really couldn't refuse. She knew that the leader was a hot potato for her and she must not touch him. She could only look to others helplessly for help.

She looked at Sect Master Lian Guang, who frowned in annoyance, not knowing how to respond.

Qiu Yuzi wanted to say something but stopped herself, obviously her mouth had been shut.

Look again...Zhao Yifu?

Zhao Yifu met that look, which was clearly asking for help.

He hesitated for only a moment, then sighed and walked out, saying, "Since my uncle Xiaohui doesn't want to be the leader, why does Master Jiong force him?"

This is why he is unwilling to show up.

The Wanshou clan was too senior, so he had to call people "ancestors" whenever he came out, which was really uncomfortable.

But who could have made him unable to resist the pleading look of Senior Sister Xiaohui?

Forget it, since I have already promised the master, I might as well start from now on.

Zeon suddenly stopped talking.

Gu Shouyue, who had previously won the sword duel, suddenly stood up and said, "The elders are talking, how can you, a junior disciple, interrupt?"

Under normal circumstances, no, especially in the Danqing School, which practices both Confucianism and Taoism and attaches great importance to respecting teachers.

However, Zhao Yifu's situation was 'abnormal'. He didn't wait for Gu Shouyue to continue his attack. He turned sideways, spread his hands, and whispered to the cave where the ancestor once lived, "Sword!"

Everyone was stunned.

The senior brothers and sisters of Jianmai thought this move was very cool and they could try it.

Others found it baffling.

Because no one thought that the severely calcified hilt of the sword in the cave could be pulled out...

No, it didn't get pulled out; it flew out by itself!
"Qiang!"

Everyone heard a sword ringing, and then saw something flying out of the cave...

It was actually a divine sword that had been severely calcified over the years. When it fell into Zhao Yifu's hands, it looked like a stone sword.

Zhao Yifu himself was also confused. Where are the gorgeous special effects?

How can he bluff people without special effects?

Who knew that this sword is now just like a stone stick. It doesn't look as majestic as the sword of the founder at all.

Of course, it is still intimidating enough, at least his "stick" flying out of the ancestral cave is very intimidating.

Zhao Yifu shook his hand helplessly, but unexpectedly felt that the stick was very smooth to use.

Then, the sound of swords rang out.

The magic sword has a spirit, and seems to be longing for something from him.

Zhao Yifu suddenly woke up.

A pure and pure Yang fire flowed out from the body and then merged into this "stone sword".

Under the forging of the Pure Yang True Fire, the calcified layer on the sword melted rapidly, and then dripped down like liquid, revealing the dark sword body inside.

At this moment, it was like a black spot on the sun, making the entire audience feel a sudden heat wave sweeping across.

This sword is very magical. It looks pitch black not because it is black, but because it is constantly absorbing the surrounding heat and light, which makes it look black.

In fact, it contains extremely astonishing temperature and is a real flaming sword.

'Pure Yang Demon Subduing Sword'!
This is the name of this sword.

Zhao Yifu could already imagine how pleasurable the scene would be when he used this sword to perform the 'Fire Dragon Sword'.

But on the other hand, Zhao Yifu felt the cold madness hidden deep within the sword.

This... is a bit unreasonable!
He couldn't imagine that the core of the ancestor's sword named "Pure Yang Demon Subduing Sword" was actually cold madness.

But this madness seemed very stable, deeply suppressed by the pure yang power on the outside, with no sign of getting out of control.

"call!"

He let out a long sigh, then looked around and said, "Who else but me can be the leader?"

Holding the founder's sword, especially with the sword displayed in this form in public, it can almost only be explained as the founder's appearance.

So, since the founder appeared and appointed Zhao Yifu, do the people of Chunyang Sect have any excuse to object?
No more.

Qiu Yuzi shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking that since this kid has this ability, why should he stand out in front of others?

But then he looked at Huigu, smiled in his heart again, and said nothing.

According to the original plan, Zhao Yifu was to be the leader.

If everything goes according to plan, even if Zhao Yifu becomes the leader, outsiders will still see Qiu Yuzi behind him, so Qiu Yuzi can still protect Zhao Yifu from the wind and rain.

but now……

If Zhao Yifu stepped forward on his own and became the leader in the most domineering and speechless way, the situation would be different.

But what to say...

Qiu Yuzi nodded and said, "Fu Yinzi, you are the leader chosen by the founder, so I, Wenwei, naturally agree."

Sect Master Xuanfeng and Sect Master Lianguang looked at each other and noticed the surprise in each other's eyes.

But they still clasped their fists and bowed together: "The Pure Yang (Yang Ling) Sword Sect is willing to obey the leader's order!"

Jianmai also agreed.

In the Dandingmai area, Master Jingxu had already surrendered to Qiu Yuzi. Now that he saw that Zhao Yifu was able to wield the magic sword left by the ancestor, what else was there to consider?
He immediately said, "We, the Jingyuan Sect, are willing to respect the Pure Yang orthodoxy."

Hui Gu looked at Zhao Yi Fu with a complicated expression. She was an insider in the situation and knew exactly why Zhao Yi Fu stood up.

She had just looked around for help, but when her eyes met Zhao Yifu, he gave her a positive answer without any hesitation and put it into practice...

Zhao Yifu rescued her from her predicament in the most reckless way, and there was no doubt that he also used this most reckless impact to violently knock open the door of her heart that she had wanted to hold tightly.

She covered her chest, but her heart began to beat uncontrollably, and she even forgot what the occasion was.

Of course, Huigu was not the only one who remained silent. Baicaosou looked at Jiong in embarrassment. He was used to following Jiong and making decisions.

Zeon's face turned pale, but at this moment he could only sigh.

"I disagree!"

Zeon was surprised. Did he accidentally say what was in his heart?
No, the person who spoke was not him, but his disciple Gu Shouyue!
Zhao Yifu looked over and asked, "Do you have any objections?"

Zeon suddenly shouted, "How dare you!"

Gu Shouyue said: "Master, I just don't accept it!"

"To become the leader of the Chunyang Sect, one must have made contributions to our sect. How could he have made such contributions at such a young age?"

"In terms of seniority, accomplishments, and contributions, he's not qualified no matter how you look at it."

Zhao Yifu's heart was slightly moved when he heard this, and then he nodded and said, "You are right, I am indeed not qualified."

"How about this, you name a suitable candidate for the position of leader and let us all choose one?"

Gu Shouyue paused when he heard this. He wanted him to speak?
He glanced at Ji Weng and said without hesitation, "My master, Ji Weng, is the most senior person in the Pure Yang Sect. He has always been diligent and has never let up. He recently developed the elixir 'Hunjin Baodan', which is beneficial to all cultivators in the world. If he becomes the Sect Leader, no one will doubt him."

Zhao Yifu smiled and said, "Indeed, if Master Jiong were to become the leader, that would be wonderful. But didn't he say before? To avoid the hassle of having to replace a leader soon after choosing one, it would be better to find an outstanding young person to be the leader this time."

What Zeon said before is the most uncomfortable point for Wanshoumen right now.

Gu Shouyue also understood that there was no solution to this problem.

unless……

He suddenly gathered himself and said with great confidence, "You didn't participate in the previous sword fight. Do you dare to fight now?"

Zhao Yifu did not retreat this time. He suddenly thrust the Pure Yang Demon Subduing Sword upside down into the ground and said, "I'm afraid you won't obey me with this sword, so I'll use it to test you."

As he finished speaking, he had already pulled out a green bamboo stick from his sleeve...
