The wine used to summon the Drunken Taoist had always been kept by Fu Guanyin. Seeing Chu Wuji nodded, she took out the jar and smashed it. The aroma of the wine did not disperse, but gathered into a thick wisp and flew out of the window.

Just a moment later, before Chu Wuji had finished chewing a crispy lamb chop, a familiar voice drifted from the sky outside the window:

"I'm here! What wine do you want me to taste?"

"Senior Jiujiu, don't you hate that kind of old-fashioned address?" Chu Wuji started joking before he even saw the person, because he knew the other person could hear him.

"The young and beautiful old lady is here! No, what's going on with this table of food? Did the sheep offend you?"

The drunken and dancing Taoist priest appeared with his rosy bare feet, came up to the table casually, and grabbed a roasted leg of lamb without any courtesy.

She first glanced at the broken jar of wine on the ground and figured out the details:

"The wine from Cansang Country is less than a hundred years old, and its reputation lies in the high quality of the water. It seems Wuji has already finished his journey with his family. The Yulun River is quite nice, right? But how did he end up in the Western Regions?"

Not only did the dragon walk end, but a lot of things happened in the Western Regions...

What Chu Wuji was more curious about was actually another thing:

"Senior Jiujiu, didn't Master come with you?"

Taoist Jiuwu enthusiastically helped to open the wine. After giving her a few glasses of wine, she began to drink it up in gulps, very heartily.

After moistening her throat, she explained:

"I haven't been back to the sect recently. I've been looking for wine outside, and the taste is a bit bland. I was just watching the young lady dancing in the Western Region, and suddenly I smelled the wine and came over."

No wonder it happened so quickly, it turns out it’s in the Western Regions.

Chu Wuji was surprised, then shook his head with a smile. This ability to find wine was indeed amazing, and even had a bit of foresight.

Fu Guanyin also sighed:

"Senior Jiujiu, when I left to go drunk, I was still regretting not being able to meet you. I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye."

The drunken and dancing Taoist priest showed a look of regret and sadness. His fair, unmade-up face was furrowed with brows as he lamented:

"Little Guanyin, there's no need to say goodbye, but you must have a farewell drink. Drink up!"

She filled Fu Guanyin and Chu Wuji's glasses, drank them all in one gulp, and immediately said:

"I've made up for the farewell wine, and I have to have a reunion wine too!"

You wouldn't have guessed that this senior Jiujiu is such a dramatic actor, always finding excuses to drink.

Chu Wuji was a little envious of her optimism and open-mindedness. He pointed to the boxes of wine next to him, explained their origins, and then said:

"Senior Jiujiu, you can drink it if you want. These are all inherited from the noble families here. They were confiscated by the national teacher Bai Kongque."

The drunken and dancing Taoist walked over and pretended to select some. When he turned back to his seat, he flicked his sleeves and took away all the wine, leaving only a few boxes.

She suppressed her secretly happy expression and said seriously, "We should support the prohibition of alcohol here!"

The Fox Goddess thought this female immortal was interesting and said with a smile, "I knew that inviting you to drink would be the best way to liven up the atmosphere~"

They chatted and ate, and soon finished the wine and meat. The maid brought two plates of grapes and watermelons as vegetarian dishes.

Chu Wuji couldn't hide what was in his heart and planned to talk about it after returning to Shenxiao Sect. He soon told Taoist Jiuwu about the matter of Qiongqi.

When Taoist Jiuwu rushed over to "accept the call", he noticed something strange in the desert outside and guessed that something unusual had happened.

I didn't expect it to be so big...

She took a few sips from her wine gourd, thought seriously, and said:

"You guys unexpectedly caught up with the ancestral spirits' chaos. We're finally getting some clues... I've never heard of the Witch Tomb."

One of Fu Guanyin's eyes transformed into a gorgeous and charming fox eye. The Heavenly Fox Goddess controlled the blonde's body and handed an empty bowl to the Jiuwu Taoist, indicating that she also wanted a bowl of wine. Then she said:

"Witch Tomb should be a temporary alliance, whose members are those old guys who were accidentally resurrected. It's normal that you haven't heard of them.

Young Master, take out the bone knife and let me see it."

Sister Dragon Girl was meditating in the next room. She caught the breath of the Drunken Immortal and moved over to listen without saying a word to interrupt.

Taoist Jiuwu took the bone knife, examined it for a moment, and said:

"These carvings look somewhat familiar. They look like a variation of 'Fuji (ji) magic', but they are not an evolved spell. They are more like ancient sources."

Chu Wuji looked confused, but when he heard that Senior Jiujiu could explain something, he felt a little more hopeful.

This drunken female immortal is so reliable!

"Senior Jiujiu, what is this 'Fuqi technique' you just mentioned?"

The drunken Taoist scratched his head, holding his cheek, searching for a common explanation:

"Wuji, you've been out and about for so long, have you ever encountered that kind of animal fairy?"

"Is my mother considered an animal fairy?" Chu Wuzhi wondered.

"Not really. Animal fairies are a type of horse-riding fairies. They like to take humans as their followers and accept their offerings. When the followers have troubles, they will come to help solve them."

Fu Guanyin pondered secretly: "Now that I am possessed by the Heavenly Fox Goddess, does that mean I am a spirit medium?"

The Fox Goddess had never heard of these schools. She replied in the girl's mind:

Why is it a Ma Xian (a type of immortal) and not a Fox Xian?

Chu Wuji had heard of Chu Ma Xian, but had never seen one. He roughly understood what Jiu Wu Dao Ren meant:

"'Fujishu' means to invite spirits to possess one's body, right?"

"Yes, the carvings on this bone knife are very similar, combining the 'spiritual writing technique' and the 'sacrifice technique'. It's amazing!"

Taoist Jiuwu could not remain calm. He had accidentally sacrificed a nine-tailed celestial fox before, which he regarded as a coincidence between heaven and earth. But now he had created an ancient Qiongqi!

This shows that the Wuzhong group does possess unique abilities, but they are unable to control what they will sacrifice, otherwise they would definitely sacrifice powerful ones every time.

But according to the information obtained from the interrogation of the Sky Fox Goddess, these guys don't care what is sacrificed, they just want to complete the disaster.

Seeing that Jiuwu Taoist couldn't figure out the next step, Chu Wuji didn't force him and said:

"Then let's leave first. Let's send Guanyin home first, and then meet up with my mother and aunt. We'll go back together when it's almost time."

Chapter 327 Family members encourage each other

Taoist Jiuwu got a lot of fine wine for no reason, and happily became a female host. She quickly led people to the secluded oasis of the Holy Fire Sect.

She didn't need Fu Guanyin to guide her, her route was extremely clear and she flew straight there.

Chu Wuji couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's going on? Senior Jiujiu doesn't even need to check the road? Is the Holy Fire Sect's secluded oasis very famous?"

The female immortal, wearing a loose Taoist robe, sat on the clouds in a Ge You-like lying position, occasionally crossing her legs, looking very comfortable and relaxed.

"Wuji, how come you're confused without any alcohol? Didn't I send little Guanyin home last time and even went to get some wine?"

Fu Guanyin added:

"On the way back, we met the white peacock. We had a quick glance but didn't exchange any words."

Chu Wuji nodded, he had indeed forgotten about this matter. At that time, he returned to Huotang City first, while Senior Jiujiu had set his eyes on Fu Guanyin's Suzaku Coveted Wine.

Why does Senior Jiujiu seem so familiar now?

"We're here, little Guanyin, go and chat."

In just a short while, Yuncai had arrived at its destination. The soldiers guarding the Oasis City were looking at the visitor vigilantly, not sure whether he was a friend or foe.

Only after confirming Fu Guanyin's beckoning did the people of the Holy Fire Sect put down their vigilance.

The blonde came to her senses and said to her companions:

"It's the same Cloud Levitation Technique. Senior Jiujiu is indeed very fast... Then everyone can take a walk in this Holy Fire City, or come in with me and sit for a while?"

Chu Wuji shook his head, signaling Fu Guanyin not to worry too much about this, and said:

"If we sit down, it will be inconvenient for you to talk about family matters. The elders may not like an extra pair of outsiders listening to their internal affairs.

We'll be able to wander around on our own later, don't worry."

Fu Guanyin thought it made sense, but if she didn’t really leave them behind and let Chu Wuzhi and the others wander around on their own, that would be a lack of hospitality!

She called a girl about ten years old to serve as a tour guide for Chu Wuzhi and others.

"If you want to see the scenery of this city, just let this kid lead the way!"

Fu Guanyin gave the girl a few words of advice, and then hurried to meet the elders. She did not invite too many people, but only found the two with the most experience.

One is the old man with burnt eyebrows, whose eyebrows always have burnt marks, and the other is Granny Hu, who looks ordinary, like an ordinary old person.

They were the senior elders of the Water and Fire sects in the past. Bai Kongque, as a member of the Water sect, defected and became independent. Many of the elders of the Water sect were heartbroken.

Later, these old and young people gathered together to work together, but the people of the Water Sect were too embarrassed to mention their own sect. After all, the problem was on their side, and now they could almost be regarded as integrated into the Holy Fire Faction.

"Guanyin, have you already gone to the Sun and Moon Kingdom and met that White Peacock? Or did the meeting go badly and you had no choice but to turn back?"

The one who was speaking was an old man with burning eyebrows. When he was anxious, the ends of his eyebrows curled up and a few wisps of smoke came out, as if they were on fire.

Granny Hu knew that Fu Guanyin was talking about something important. Although she looked calm, she was also anxious in her heart. She stood up with her cane, listened carefully, and then mentioned:

"Wardfa and the others came back once and said you went to the Sun and Moon Country. If you're unlucky, we'll have to prepare manpower to rescue you."

Fu Guanyin smiled lightly and explained:

"I have returned safely and had a face-to-face chat with White Peacock."

"Did that scheming woman give you any trouble?"

Compared with the content of the conversation, the two old men were more concerned about whether Fu Guanyin had been wronged. This was an act of going deep into the enemy's belly, which was always risky!

The blonde girl shook her head at first, then pulled the two old men to sit down, poured them tea, and calmed them down in advance:

"I need to let the old man and Grandma Hu know the content of my conversation with her first. You can decide whether to let others know..."

The two respected elders were initially puzzled by her mysterious nature. What had she discussed with White Peacock? Was it worth being so cautious? Could she have tricked them into making some kind of deal?

However, after the old man finished listening to Fu Guanyin's retelling, he fell silent and gradually understood the girl's caution.

If the younger generation heard this, they would definitely be shaken and doubt what they have been insisting on for all these years.

Fu Guanyin did not just speak Bai Kongque's words, she also relayed Chu Wuji's thoughts:

"White Peacock is exaggerating a bit. The Water and Fire Sect's predecessors certainly helped many people back then. That's why they were able to receive so much help even after the split. But there must have been some flaws as well, and the negative impacts have been overlooked."

This kind of thing has both merits and demerits. It is not as perfect as one imagines, but it is definitely not as bad as the white peacock criticizes.

However, with White Peacock flourishing, everything she said seemed right. Meanwhile, the Holy Fire Sect was in decline, and members were easily led to self-doubt due to their current situation.

Fu Guanyin said:

"I bring these words here to urge everyone to temporarily let go of past right and wrong, stop obsessing over the Water and Fire Sect's survival, and focus on your own cultivation first."

Right and wrong are important, but unfortunately, you can’t argue them clearly with words, and you can easily get yourself stuck in a dead end.

The elders of the Holy Fire Sect, if they give up the idea of ​​reviving the Water and Fire Sect, the energy they free up can go a long way on the path of cultivation!

Because revival is something that requires talent and money to run...there are so many things involved.

The two old men were silent, thinking for a long time, and sighed deeply. They asked Fu Guanyin:

"Then Guanyin, what do you think?"

"What I think is actually not important. The Sun and Moon Nation was developing so well, but the appearance of a powerful ancestral spirit nearly caused them to suffer heavy losses and severely damage their vitality."

Fu Guanyin finished speaking rationally, and then noticed the complicated expressions of the two elders. They might need some spiritual approval, so the blonde girl said:

"You didn't do anything wrong, you just didn't do it perfectly. If this is considered a sin, who will dare to work hard towards their ideals in the future?"

The two old men breathed a sigh of relief, felt relieved and smiled bitterly.

They had seen immortals in the past and knew the gap between themselves and those beings, but under the leadership of the first few leaders of the Water and Fire Sect, they threw themselves into it with all their enthusiasm.

It is certain that I have not done well enough, but when I think about the fact that I can contribute to everyone's ideal aspirations, I will not be afraid of my own abilities.

If your abilities are a little weaker, the worst that can happen is that you can do less, but you can always help.

Now they are old and have gradually forgotten the enthusiasm they had at that time.

What I fear most is being seen by younger generations as a lost sinner who has “done wrong things all his life and is still feeling proud of himself.”

Fu Guanyin's affirmation indeed gave them great comfort.

Granny Hu saw the girl's future plans and thought she wouldn't stay forever, so she said:
