The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 627

For Tong Yan, other than the underworld, the only place that can guarantee his safety is Qingshan Yinfeng.

He didn't want to go to the underworld again in his life, so he could only live in Yinfeng.

A hundred years of seclusion is inevitably boring and lonely. Fortunately, it is not difficult for a monk. He spends most of his time cultivating—Jing Jiu did not give him a sword manual, so he is still practicing the Taoism of the Zhongzhou school—in his spare time, he will play a few games of chess with himself, and every few years he will go out of the cave to wander in the hidden peaks, stepping on the green grass, brushing the wild flowers with his fingertips, and listening to the sound of the wind passing through the bamboo flute.

That bamboo flute is the key thing for Fang Sedum to bloom to the sky, and he didn't know when he put it back.

This peaceful life was not broken until last autumn.

Tong Yan received a letter from Chaoge City, and knew about the difficult situation faced by the Qingshan Sect, or more precisely, the Shenmo Peak.

The Green Mountain Sect wants to choose a new head?

Thinking about these things, he packed up the chessboard and chess pieces, and left the cave. Before leaving, he did not forget to press the stone button under the table to turn the red light on the cliff to green.

Walking through the dense fog and entering the Sword Prison, he kept his heart and ignored the bloody and filthy atmosphere in those cells. After passing through the long passage, he came to the skylight, saluted the corpse dog, and then flew out.

The cave on Shangde Peak is still so cold, although his master has gone to Chaoge City and has not returned for a hundred years.

Tong Yan asked Junior Sister Yushan for a hat to put on her head, and went down the mountain.

...

...

From Shangde Peak to Shenmo Peak, you have to pass the waterfall at the end of Xijian River.

There are many natural-shaped stone platforms in the waterfall, which are the places where the masters of the peaks and the guests who watched the ceremony stayed during the Chengjian Conference.

Many years ago, Tong Yan's first visit to Qingshan was to participate in the Chengjian Conference.

He floated to the stone platform like a fallen leaf, thinking about what happened back then, turned around and looked down the cliff.

Xijian Creek is shining in the sun, and it gradually goes farther and straighter, like a golden whip that has been swung out.

Dozens of boys and girls practiced swords and played in the stream. It was very lively, and the water mist raised was full of youthful flavor.

These people should be the new disciples of the Green Mountain Sect.

Don't talk about them, even those Xijiange instructors on the shore, Tong Yan, don't know any of them.

A hundred years of time has passed, and many things have already changed.

Looking at this scene, Tong Yan misses those streams in Yunmeng Mountain, but that miss has faded.

After knowing what happened in Chaoge City and what happened to his junior sister back then, his last affection for Yunmeng Mountain disappeared.

At this time, the young disciples at Xixia didn't know what they were talking about, and gradually started to quarrel.

"The Zhongzhou sect has thousands of ways, and there are always merits in thinking about it."

"Haven't you read the Sword Code or don't you know that I am the leader of the swords in Qingshan? Everything is a sword! One sword can imitate all things and laws. As disciples of Qingshan, we don't need to learn those!"

"But even if you use a sword to imitate ten thousand dharmas, you must know the appearance of ten thousand dharmas, right?"

"Even so, why do you want to see the Zhongzhou School? A hundred years ago, the Zhongzhou School might have had some good weather, but now? Those so-called genius disciples are missing, dead, and dead. Who else is remembered?"

"That's right. I heard that at that time there was a person named Luo Huainan, who was the first disciple of Zhongzhou, and died suddenly in Guiyun City... Many people are secretly saying that he was killed by Uncle Liu."

"Be careful!"

"It's just a private talk. I haven't seen the Zhongzhou faction for so many years. How are you afraid of them?"

"I mean that senior is now the teacher of Yi Mao Zhai. It's inappropriate for you and me to call him uncle."

"No one in the entire practice world knows that he was the Tong'er of the real master at the beginning, hahahaha, how could he hide it from others."

"Speaking of the Master Master, I don't know when the old man will return to Qingshan... Thinking back to the battle in Chaoge City, the Master Master first defeated the Zhongzhou School Master and then the Immortal. It is really desirable. I only regret that I was born a hundred years later, so I didn't have the chance to see the scene of that day."

...

...

Standing on the cliff, Tong Yan listened to the voices coming from the wind, and thought to herself that the master was defeated by Lian Sanyue, so how could it be Jing Jiu alone?

The original story has become a legend after a hundred years. Naturally, it cannot be absolutely true, because the position of each narrator changes its appearance.

Thinking of these and the disdain these Qingshan disciples had for the Zhongzhou Sect, he shook his head subconsciously, but unexpectedly, he was watched by several Xijiange teachers by the stream.

A middle-aged man said with a sullen face, "That man on the cliff, who are you?"

Meili and Lin Wuzhi ended their lectures in Xijiange several decades ago, received great rewards from the sect, and went back to the peak to practice. The former is now in the middle of the sea, and Lin Wuzhi has also broken the sea and is an elder.

The middle-aged man who spoke was surnamed Xue, and he was a sword cultivator of Wuzhang in Shiyue Peak. His uncle was an elder in Shiyue Peak. He died a few years ago, and his sword returned to Qingshan.

Tong Yan naturally ignored this person and walked towards the waterfall.

The sword cultivator surnamed Xue was even more vigilant, and shouted: "Stop, which peak are you from?"

As soon as he spoke, he saw the sword light flashing, and he stopped in front of Tong Yan, and the rest of Xijiange's teachers and disciples also rushed over.

Tong Yan was silent for a while, and found that no matter how smart she was, she still couldn't solve the current situation.

After the Battle of Xihai, he joined the Qingshan Sect, and it has been more than a hundred years...but he still has no identity.

Jing Jiu didn't give him a brand name, nor did he teach him sword skills.

So how does he prove his identity?

Tong Yan waved her sleeves, Dao Fa came out through the sleeves, condensed into a blue light like a bird, and headed towards Liangwang Peak in the distance.

Looking at this scene, Xue Jianxiu's face suddenly turned pale, he took two steps back, raised his hand to signal everyone to come over, and shouted sharply: "You are actually from the Zhongzhou faction!"

Hearing this, those Xijiange teachers and young disciples were also very surprised, thinking how the Zhongzhou faction could pass through the Qingshan formation, they couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a while.

Fortunately, the embarrassing situation didn't last too long. A stern sword light illuminated Xijianxi, and Gu Han came from Liangwang Peak with his sword. Looking at the scene, his face suddenly became cold, and he shouted: "I'm all gone! What are you doing here if you don't practice your sword properly!"

Then he looked at Jianxiu surnamed Xue and the other teachers and said in a deep voice, "Is Xijiange so idle now?"

Now that he has passed Nanshan Mountain and returned to practice in Tianguang Peak, You Siluo and others have also left, only he continues to sit on Liangwang Peak, welcoming new generations from generation to generation, and he is extremely majestic in the Qingshan Mountain. Xue Jianxiu and those teachers were reprimanded by him, very disturbed, and quickly moved out of the way.

"Sorry, senior brother." Gu Han solemnly saluted Tong Yan.

The Qingshan disciples who participated in the battle of Chaoge all know that Tong Yan has made great contributions to the sect, and they respect him very much.

More importantly, he was transferred from the Zhongzhou faction, and he was the target of Yunmengshan's death. Of course, the Qingshan sect had to ensure that he would not be harmed.

Tong Yan smiled slightly, and left the cliff after returning the gift.

"No one is allowed to say what happened today." Gu Hanhan gave everyone a cold look, and returned to Liangwang Peak with his sword.

Looking at the back figure that disappeared between the cliffs, Jianxiu Xue and those apprentices were shocked and kept silent, wondering who is this man wearing a hat?

...

...

Accompanied by the sound of apes all the way, Tong Yan climbed to the top of Shenmo Peak.

Yuan Qu was sitting on the stone, holding the strange sword in his arms, and was resting. He opened his eyes when he heard the footsteps, and found that it was him. He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "You finally came out."

In the spring of next year, the Qingshan Conference will be held to elect a new head. Of course, Shen Mofeng is unwilling to accept it, but he doesn't know how to deal with it, because they are all used to Gu Qing or Tong Yan arranging these things.

"The simplest and most profitable strategy is to fully support Shiyuefeng." Tong Yan said.

Yuan Qu had just lit the charcoal under the stove, and the water in the iron pot hadn't boiled yet, and found that Tong Yan had already made a decision, and couldn't help being a little dazed, but after thinking about it, he found that this was indeed the best way - now only Daoist Guangyuan, who is also in the Heaven-reaching Realm, can compete with Fang Jingtian for the position of master.

"No." Zhao Layue walked out of the cave and said with a blank expression.

Tong Yan didn't expect her to give a reason, and she had already guessed that she would not accept this arrangement, and said, "Then think of another way."

Zhao Layue said, "Think quickly."

Tong Yan winked at Yuan Qu.

Yuan Qu was startled, and went back to the hall to take out a lot of files, which were all the family rules he brought back from Shangde Peak.

The Qingshan gate rules are really complicated, Tong Yan and Yuan Qu watched for a day and a night, but they couldn't find anything suitable for them.

Zhao Layue had never had the patience for this, and said, "I'll be back before next spring."

After saying this, she summoned the Forth Sword, stepped on the sword, turned into a blood line, and headed towards the northern sky.

Firth Sword's sword light disappeared into the distance of the sky, Yuan Qu finally relaxed, touched his chest, looked at Tong Yan a little uneasy and asked: "If Master knows that you and Senior Brother Gu are going to push her to be the master...will he chop us with a sword?"

Tong Yan said calmly: "My realm is not easy to hack, you are more dangerous."
