People in the Qin Dynasty sought good fortune and avoided misfortune.

Chapter 84, Xu Qing: What? I'm fighting Xiaoyaozi?
Outside Xinzheng City.

Xu Qing's figure swept quickly above the trees, and with the support of the strong wind beneath his feet, he looked like an immortal riding the clouds and controlling the wind.

Having estimated that they had arrived at the agreed-upon location, Xu Qing dispelled the gale beneath his feet and slowly descended from mid-air to the ground.

The moment Xu Qing steadied himself, he saw He Guanzi's figure and took two steps forward to stand beside him.

"teacher."

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, a commotion arose from the surrounding woods. Dozens of Taoist priests dressed in plain robes and carrying sharp swords emerged from the shadows and surrounded He Guanzi and Xu Qing.

"Qing Xiaozi, a disciple of the Taoist Tianzong sect, along with all the disciples of the Tianzong sect, greets our sect leader, Master Uncle." The elderly Taoist priest at the head of the group bowed respectfully to He Guanzi.

"Greetings, Grandmaster Uncle!" the others greeted in unison, bowing their hands in greeting.

He Guanzi looked at the disciples of the Daoist Heavenly Sect and nodded, saying...
"Everyone, get up."

Seeing this scene, Xu Qing suddenly realized that He Guanzi had sent him here to meet with the disciples of the Heavenly Sect, so that he could be recognized as a member of the sect.

Just as he had anticipated, He Guanzi also regarded Tianzong as his last resort.

He is not Han Fei. In the original story, the Chao Nu Yao framed Han Fei for plotting against her, but King An of Han did not expose or punish Han Fei for the sake of his and Han's reputation.

But he was just a minor imperial physician. If King Han An found out that he was having affairs with his two favorite concubines, tearing him apart by five horses wouldn't be a light punishment.

When that day comes, Xu Qing can escape to Mount Taiyi under the protection of the Heavenly Sect, without having to become a unit for measuring horsepower like Shang Yang.

"Sect Leader Uncle, you've finally returned. You've been gone for decades, and everyone in our Heavenly Sect has been eager to know your whereabouts."

Are you heading back to Mount Taiyi?

Qing Xiaozi looked at He Guanzi with excitement, his face full of a smile.

He Guanzi left Mount Taiyi without a word and then disappeared. Tianzong also searched for him, but ultimately to no avail.

Now that He Guanzi has taken the initiative to find them, Qing Xiaozi has begun to fantasize about He Guanzi returning to the Heavenly Sect and the Human Sect being completely trampled under their feet.

The other disciples of the Heavenly Sect looked at He Guanzi with excitement, curiosity, or longing, as if they were looking at their idol.

As the previous leader of the Heavenly Sect, He Guanzi's life was legendary.

He held a high position in the imperial court and was the most trusted retainer of King Wuling of Zhao. In the martial world, he single-handedly killed the Yin-Yang School, forcing them to retreat from public life.

Within the school of thought, he wrote books and established the School of Heaven and Man.
More importantly, in the hearts of the Tianzong disciples, He Guanzi is the person who is closest to, or has even reached, the realm of transcendence.

It can be said that He Guanzi's position in the Tianzong sect was no less than Xunzi's position in Confucianism.

"I've come to you today not to return to the Heavenly Sect, but to introduce you to someone," He Guanzi said.

The disappearance of Qing Xiaozi's expectations did not affect his mindset. After all, many of the sages of the Heavenly Sect liked to leave home in their later years.

So Qing Xiaozi looked at Xu Qing beside He Guanzi, and the other Tianzong disciples also looked at Xu Qing.

"Sect Master Uncle, who is this?" Qing Xiaozi asked Xu Qing with a puzzled look.

"This is my newly accepted disciple, Xu Qing," He Guanzi said.
“Xu Qing, this is your senior brother Qing Xiaozi.”

"Senior Brother!" Xu Qing greeted Qing Xiaozi.

As soon as He Guanzi spoke, Qing Xiaozi and the other disciples of Tianzong all turned to look at Xu Qing.

Looking at Xu Qing, who was eight feet tall and handsome, everyone was surprised and taken aback.

The name of the legendary healer Xu Qing had spread throughout Korea. Since entering Korea, wherever they went, the name Xu Qing was always mentioned most frequently in any crowd. Especially in Xinzheng, Xu Qing's name and deeds were heard everywhere. However, they hadn't entered the city, so they didn't recognize Xu Qing.

Upon seeing Xu Qing, I never imagined that he was so young, and that he was actually a disciple of He Guanzi.

Qing Xiaozi quickly regained his senses and returned the greeting to Xu Qing.

"Junior brother."

"Greetings, Junior Martial Uncle." The other Heavenly Sect disciples bowed in unison.

"Greetings, everyone." Xu Qing returned the greeting to the other disciples.

"The purpose of bringing you here today is to introduce you to each other."

He Guanzi nodded to Xu Qing and then winked at Qing Xiaozi.

Xu Qing took the initiative to walk towards the group of young disciples, while Qing Xiaozi followed He Guanzi to the side, giving the young people space to communicate.

"Master Uncle, are you really not planning to return to Taiyi Mountain? How can you accept your junior brother as your disciple so hastily?" Qing Xiaozi asked He Guanzi in a low voice.

"Qingxiao, I have other things to take care of. I came to see you today because of this kid."

"Send the news of my taking him as my disciple back to Mount Taiyi, so that the sect may know."

"His path lies not within the Heavenly Sect, but in the vast world."

He Guanzi looked at Xu Qing, who had already become one with the young disciples of the Heavenly Sect, and leisurely stroked his beard.

These disciples of the Heavenly Sect had heard so many stories about Xu Qing on their way here that they were tired of hearing them. Now that they had met him in person, they naturally couldn't help but ask him if those stories were true or false.

Xu Qing also made full use of her storytelling talent, inviting everyone to sit on the ground and beginning to answer their questions, occasionally interjecting with a few humorous jokes.

The disciples of Tianzong found that this junior uncle was not only handsome but also kind and humorous, and they quickly accepted Xu Qing's existence.

Xu Qing successfully integrated himself into the group of disciples in just a few words.

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed in Qing Xiaozi's eyes. He Guanzi was determined not to return to Taiyi Mountain, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I will tell the Sect Leader and have him record his name on the register to officially confirm his identity as a disciple of the Heavenly Sect."

"Is the sect leader still Chishongzi?"

He Guanzi watched Xu Qing's retreating figure, his eyes darting around, seemingly plotting something.

"Yes, Senior Brother Sect Leader has been in charge of Xueji for five years now. If nothing unexpected happens, he will continue to lead Xueji for next year's Celestial Alliance."

Qing Xiaozi then spoke of the recent situation involving Chisongzi and Tianzong.

There are ten direct disciples of the Heavenly Sect in this generation. Chisongzi is the eldest brother and has inherited the position of sect leader. Pang Nuan, the second brother, serves as a general in the State of Zhao. The other eight have inherited the positions of elders, while Qing Xiaozi ranks third.

"However, there has been news from the Human Sect recently that next year's Heavenly Man Agreement may not be attended by their sect leader, but by Xiaoyaozi, who joined the Human Sect five years ago, in place of his master."

"Xiaoyaozi?" He Guanzi looked at Qing Xiaozi with a puzzled expression.

"He was once the number one hero in Guanzhong, but for some reason he fled to the Human Sect and was taken in as a disciple by the sect leader Qi Lunzi," Qing Xiaozi explained.

"I see. If Chishongzi were to fight him, even if he won, it would be an unfair victory," He Guanzi said, looking at Xu Qing who was boasting.
"Now that Xu Qing has joined my Heavenly Sect, let him replace Chisongzi in the Heavenly Man Agreement next year and fight against Xiaoyaozi."
