Chapter 910 Awakening Determination
Outside the window, the night was dark, and the stars were falling like diamonds on the world, but they could not illuminate the confusion in Gu Jiuchen's heart. Ye Linglong's words echoed in his ears, like a ray of clear spring, nourishing his dry heart, but unable to completely dispel the lingering haze.
He stood up and walked to the window, looking at the undulating mountains in the distance, with many thoughts in his mind. He knew that Ye Linglong was right. He could not be knocked down by the predicament in front of him, let alone be swayed by the rumors. He is the leader of the Tianxian Sect and the hope of righteousness. He must shoulder his responsibilities.
"Linglong, you are right, I can't stay depressed like this anymore." Gu Jiuchen turned around, a determined light rekindled in his eyes, "I want to prove myself with actions and prove that everything we do is for the right path. All the people in the world!”
Ye Linglong looked at him happily, her eyes full of love and trust: "Jiuchen, I believe in you, I always believe in you."
"Thank you, Linglong." Gu Jiuchen walked to her and gently embraced her in his arms, "With you by my side, I have nothing to fear."
At this moment, two figures quietly appeared outside the courtyard, it was Xuan Lei and Zi Xia. They witnessed the deep friendship and unwavering faith between Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong, and they couldn't help but be moved by it.
"It seems that we came at the right time." Xuan Lei walked in with a smile, breaking the tranquility in the courtyard.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister Zixia." Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong quickly stood up to greet them.
"No need to be polite." Xuan Lei waved his hand and turned to Gu Jiuchen, "Jiuchen, we have all seen everything you have done and heard the rumors. But you have to believe that if evil does not prevail against good, one day , the truth will be revealed to the world.”
"Yes, Jiuchen." Zixia also continued, "You are the chosen one and the hope of the right path. We all believe in you."
"Thank you, senior brother and senior sister." A warm current surged in Gu Jiuchen's heart, and he knew that he was not alone.
"Jiuchen, Linglong, what are you going to do?" Xuan Lei asked, "Whatever you need from us, just ask."
"I think..." Gu Jiuchen pondered for a moment and spoke out his thoughts.
As the night got darker, the four of them had a long talk in the courtyard. It was not until the white fish belly appeared in the east that they dispersed. Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong stood side by side in the courtyard, looking at the gradually brightening sky, their hearts filled with hope and strength. They know that there is still a long road ahead, but they are ready to meet all challenges.
Dawn breaks in the east, and the morning light is like golden silk, slowly spreading over the sea of clouds. Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong stood side by side on the top of Tianxian Peak, overlooking the magnificent scenery shrouded in clouds and mist below, but they had no intention of appreciating it at all. They knew that beneath this seemingly calm surface, a violent storm was brewing that could subvert the entire world of immortality.
"Linglong, we can't sit still and wait for death any longer." Gu Jiuchen looked into the distance with a burning gaze. "The demons are eyeing us. We must act as soon as possible and unite all the forces that can be united."
Ye Linglong nodded slightly, and she understood that at this moment, Gu Jiuchen had long lost his past coldness, and was replaced by a kind of strategizing calmness and determination.
"Jiuchen, tell me, what should we do?" Ye Linglong asked softly, her eyes full of trust and determination.
Gu Jiuchen took a deep breath and explained the plan he had planned in his heart: "First of all, we must strengthen the internal construction of Tianxian Sect, rectify the atmosphere, and improve the cultivation of disciples. Secondly, we must unite with other righteous sects to establish A more solid alliance to jointly resist the invasion of the demons. Finally, and the most critical point, we must find a way to find out the true purpose behind the demons' actions. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle. "
Ye Linglong listened carefully, sometimes thinking deeply, sometimes nodding. After Gu Jiuchen finished speaking, she said: "Jiuchen, your plan is very careful, but I think the first thing we need to do is to break the existing rigidity of Tianxian Sect. system, establish a more fair and just selection mechanism, and stimulate the enthusiasm of disciples for cultivation.”
When Gu Jiuchen heard this, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and Ye Linglong's thoughts coincided with his. For a long time, there have been some shortcomings within the Tianxian Sect, such as uneven distribution of resources, serious sectarian differences, etc. These problems have seriously hindered the development of the sect.
"Linglong, you are right, it is time to carry out some reforms." Gu Jiuchen held Ye Linglong's hand, with a firm light shining in his eyes, "I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome all difficulties, protect the right path, and protect the world." All the people in the world!”
In the following days, Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong began to carry out a series of reforms in Tianxian Sect. They abolished some unreasonable systems and established a more fair and just selection mechanism, giving all disciples equal opportunities and allowing them to obtain the resources and status they deserve through their own efforts.
This series of reform measures caused huge repercussions within the sect. Some conservative elders expressed strong opposition to this. They believed that what Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong did was destroying the sect's tradition and challenging their authority.
However, Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong ignored these objections. They withstood the pressure and resolutely implemented their reform plan. They believe that only by breaking the old shackles can Tianxian Sect glow with new vitality and be better able to cope with the coming crisis.
At the same time, Ye Linglong also began to use her wisdom and affinity to actively travel among various righteous sects to resolve conflicts and promote cooperation. She knows that at this critical juncture, only by uniting can we defeat the powerful enemy.
However, just as they were preparing for the upcoming war, an unexpected news came, completely shattering their original plan... Ye Linglong has always been known for her wisdom and affinity. She understands the subtleties of people's hearts and understands unity. importance. Therefore, she personally went to various righteous sects to treat each other with sincerity, understand them with reason, and move them with emotion. She first went to visit the Xuanlei Sect, which had always been at odds with the Tianxian Sect.
Xuan Lei, the leader of the Xuan Lei Sect, has a strong personality and a hot temper, and is very prejudiced against the Tianxian Sect. Ye Linglong knew that confronting others head-on would be counterproductive, so she chose to overcome strength with gentleness. Instead of talking about business, she discussed swordsmanship with Xuan Lei. Xuan Lei was good at wielding a heavy sword, with wide open and close movements, powerful and heavy, while Ye Linglong used light and changeable sword skills to deal with it. The two of them went back and forth, and they actually fought evenly.
After the competition, Xuan Lei admired Ye Linglong's sword skills. Ye Linglong took the opportunity to say: "Master Xuan Lei, your sword skills are powerful and domineering, which is admirable. However, I think your moves seem to focus too much on offense. And ignored the defense.”
Xuan Lei was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Mrs. Ye is joking. I, Xuan Lei, have always believed that offense is the best defense. Why should we look forward and backward?"
Ye Linglong smiled slightly and said: "Having said that, if you encounter a stronger opponent than you and only attack without defending, wouldn't it be easy to expose your flaws? The demons are coming this time. If we want to defeat them, we must unite. The swordsmanship of the Tianxian Sect focuses on defense and counterattack, and may be complementary to the swordsmanship of the Xuanlei Sect to jointly defend against powerful enemies."
After hearing this, Xuan Lei pondered for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "What Mrs. Ye said is reasonable. I, Xuan Lei, am not an unreasonable person. The demon clan is facing a powerful enemy, and we should join hands to fight against it."
Ye Linglong's sincerity and wisdom moved Xuan Lei, and also resolved the gap between the two sects. After that, she went to several other sects and resolved conflicts and promoted cooperation in the same way.
At the same time, Gu Jiuchen stayed in the Tianxian Sect and personally guided the cultivation of the righteous disciples. Although he has a cold temperament, he treats his disciples with all his heart. He knows very well that the key to whether the right path can defeat the demons lies in the strength of the younger generation. He taught his disciples the secret knowledge of Tianxian Sect and formulated different training plans based on each person's characteristics.
"The way of swordsmanship lies in the essence, not the quantity. The essence of the moves is more important than the quantity. Only when there is a sword in the heart and no sword in the hand, and the sword and man are integrated, can the maximum power be exerted." Gu Jiuchen's voice was low. And it is full of magnetism, echoing in the martial arts training ground.
The disciples listened attentively and did not dare to slack off in the slightest. They benefited a lot from Gu Jiuchen's strict requirements and superb skills, and their cultivation also improved by leaps and bounds.
With the efforts of Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong, the strength of the Righteous Alliance gradually increased, and everyone's views on them began to slowly change. However, just when they thought everything was going in a good direction, a piece of news came that made their hearts hang again...
The momentum of the Righteous Alliance is growing day by day, and people's hearts are gradually gathering together. This was originally a good thing, but a secret letter from Zixia Mountain broke this short-term tranquility. Zixia Mountain is Ye Linglong's sect and has always been on good terms with the Tianxian Sect. The tone of the letter was anxious, saying only that the master Zixia Master was critically ill and urgently summoned Ye Linglong back to the mountain.
After Ye Linglong received the letter, her heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came to her. Master Zixia treated her like a daughter and was her guide on the road to spiritual practice. Now that she was suddenly critically ill, how could she not worry?
Gu Jiuchen saw that her face was pale and her brows were full of worry, so he asked softly: "But what happened to Zixia Mountain?"
Ye Linglong handed the letter to him, suppressing the uneasiness in her heart and said: "Master is critically ill, I must rush back as soon as possible."
After Gu Jiuchen read the letter, he pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go with you."
Ye Linglong wanted to refuse. After all, it was a troubled time now. As the leader of the Tianxian Sect, it was really inappropriate for him to leave. But Gu Jiuchen insisted: "Master Zixia has the kindness to teach you. Now that she is seriously ill, I should go with you to visit her."
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Ye Linglong stopped refusing. The two simply cleaned up and flew towards Zixia Mountain with their swords.
