Chapter 186 Flowers in the Mist

Yue Xipo's laughter was still hearty and he said to Qingchen:

"Haha, 'good son-in-law', this is my little daughter. She is indeed a bit arrogant, but deep down in her heart she is willing to become a Taoist partner with you."

Qingchen's face did not change and he said quickly: "Miss Lingshan is straightforward and innocent. How can I, Qingchen, not cherish this true temperament?"

After hearing this, Yue Xipo nodded with satisfaction, then his face straightened up and his expression became solemn and serious:

"Since we are one family, we don't speak two different languages. This post of inspector was not originally held by our faction.

But Mo Qiuxian dared to assassinate you during the war. After the incident was exposed, our Yue family also had a lot of information about the former inspector.

After some operations, the former inspector was finally transferred to the Xuanli Island battlefield. Now, our in-law family and others would like to see a good son-in-law take over this position.

We believe that you will be able to "justly and selflessly" implement the sect's laws and maintain the stability of this area. "

Upon hearing this, Qingchen expressed his gratitude to the Yue family for their strong support.

Yue Xipo continued: "In addition to our Xuanyue Island, the area under your inspection also has three secondary islands.

These islands are home to many vassal foundation-building families of the Ningxuan Sect. They have deep friendships with the original inspectors, so you must pay more attention to them during this trip.

In particular, Xuanchang Island is a second-level high-grade spiritual island with rich resources. There are three foundation-building families on the island, and the Chang family among them has a close relationship with the former inspector.

They may obstruct your inspection mission in every possible way or even set traps. You have to be careful and don't let them take advantage of you. "

Qingchen looked respectful and quickly asked for advice:

"My lord-in-law, please give me your advice on how to act as an inspector and what are the taboos."

Yue Xipo took a sip of tea and said:

"My dear son-in-law, if you want to gain a firm foothold among these twelve patrols, you must first learn to 'think twice'."

Hearing this, Qingchen raised his eyebrows slightly and asked curiously: "What is 'think twice'?"

Yue Xipo pondered for a moment and said: "The so-called 'think three times' means thinking about danger, thinking about retreat, and thinking about change.

This path of cultivation is surrounded by dangers and dangers. Only by being aware of dangers in advance can we avoid risks. This is to be prepared for danger;

And when you face a strong enemy that is difficult to defeat head-on, you need to know how to give in, conceal your edge, and wait until the time is right to deliver a fatal blow to your opponent. This is retreat;

As for thinking about change, it means reflecting on oneself while giving in and hiding, and examining past mistakes, so as to move forward more steadily and further, and to reach a higher level of cultivation. "

After listening, Qingchen nodded thoughtfully. Seeing this, Yue Xipo continued:

Thinking of danger. Your position as an inspector may not be secure for the time being. My in-laws will fully support you, but there are a total of four large islands in your jurisdiction.

You must have enough prestige in the remaining three islands to ensure that the interests of Ningxuan Sect are not damaged.

Otherwise, your position will not be secure, and this is the danger. You need to be alert at all times and never slack off.

Thinking about retreating. Your opponent is the forces of the remaining three islands, but you cannot oppose everyone in these three islands.

You have to hide your edge, observe secretly, find the key points, and then deliver the fatal blow. Remember, don’t act rashly, you need to make decisions before you act.

As for wanting to change, that’s a story for another day. "

Qingchen bowed his hands and said, "Thank you so much, 'Master Yue-in-law'!"

Qingchen was appointed as the inspector for the first time. His eyes were darkened and he was still unfamiliar with many things about the inspector's affairs.

The task given by the Sect Elders Council was to ask him to check the status of the monks in each family within his jurisdiction.

Find out whether they are collaborating with the enemy or slacking off, and urge them to do their best to help Ning Xuanzong defend against the enemy.

If he acts ineffectively, someone will take advantage of him.

What awaits him is probably being sent to the frontline battlefield.

Because of this, Qingchen's first stop was the Yue family.

Yue Xipo, the head of the Yue family, is quite knowledgeable.

Not only did he introduce the situation of the Yue family in detail, he also helped Qingchen clarify the clues about the inspection affairs.

Yue Xipo told Qingchen that among the remaining three islands, Xuanchang Island was the most powerful.

In Xuanchang Island, the Chang family is the leader.

As long as the Chang family is settled, Xuanchang Island will be in his hands;

Once Xuanchang Island surrenders, the other two islands will naturally follow suit.

After hearing this, Qingchen had some thoughts in his mind.

He asked his men to organize the records of the Yue family's full cooperation with the inspection, and then prepared to set off.

The next stop is Xuanchang Island.

Just as Qingchen was on his way to Xuanchang Island in a flying boat, another undercurrent of conversation was taking place in the hall of the Yue family.

Yue Xipo faced a wall in the hall and said, "Brother, do you really want to do this?"

After waiting for a while, a hoarse voice came from the wall: "We have no choice."

Yue Xipo was silent for a while, "The ancestor..."

The other side of the wall fell into silence, but then changed the topic and said something seemingly irrelevant:

"The knife is always hanging on the neck, but the ancestor always said that he is old and dim. We have been other people's knives all our lives, and this time it is us who hold the knife."

Yue Xipo narrowed his eyes: "Brother, what about this kid? Can he succeed?"

The person on the other side of the wall said: "It looks like he has some tricks up his sleeve, and he is not a 'villain who succeeds'. That's fine, let him go, he may be a good pawn."

After saying this, there was no sound from the other side of the wall, Yue Xipo didn't speak anymore, and the hall fell into silence again.

"Uncle Qing, isn't our original destination Xuanchang Island? Why did we change our route to deal with the 'Thirteen Bandits of Yinshan'?"

On the speeding Xuanxue warship, Gao Yuliang frowned and asked Qingchen.

It turned out that on the way to Xuanchang Island, Qingchen suddenly changed his course.

He sailed to a first-level island and took the initiative to attack and wiped out many bandits on it.

Since Qingchen entered the foundation-building period, Gao Yuliang no longer called him "Brother Qing".

Especially after Qingchen recalled him from the battlefield of Haichang Island, he was full of awe for Qingchen.

Qingchen smiled at Gao Yuliang: "It's a 'greeting gift'."

At this time, Xu Xiake, who had been standing silently by the side, interrupted and said: "Huh, how can you understand Uncle Qing's deep meaning.

As an inspector, it is Uncle Qing's duty to eradicate bandits. His behavior is indeed a model for practitioners like us."

Qingchen glanced at him and stopped talking.

I thought to myself: This kid, after a battle, is still so stubborn.

Gao Yuliang is much smarter. He knows that I must have a deep meaning in my actions and never do meaningless things.

However, the "Thirteen Bandits of Yinshan" are indeed capable and have accumulated a lot of wealth.

Qingchen's consciousness sank into the storage bag, and saw that a lot of spiritual stones and treasures were added to it.

And some headless monks' bodies were neatly stacked and affixed with soul-sealing talismans.

Although Yue Xipo talked about many rules of being an inspector, Qingchen didn't think so.

"If the master of foundation building is not full of energy, can he still be called a master of foundation building?"
