I am Zhao Zhijing, a poor Taoist priest, and I have disciples all over the world.

Chapter 123 I Just Don’t Like It

On the other hand, while Zhao Zhijing was comprehending the Xiantian Gong on the Cliff of Regret, Li Zhichang and Cui Zhifang went down from the top of the Jade Maiden Peak and returned to the Zuowang Temple.

When Liu Qingxing saw the two uncles coming back, he went to make tea to entertain them. Firstly, it was the inheritance of the order of seniority in Quanzhen Sect, and secondly, the two uncles were kind and benevolent. After the master was imprisoned in Chongyang Palace, the brothers had all been taken care of by them.

"No need to be polite."

Li Zhichang is now the third-generation chief disciple of Quanzhen Sect. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the next leader of Quanzhen Sect. However, he is not arrogant at all. Instead, he is more cautious in his words and actions.

"Qingxing, you dozen brothers followed Brother Zhao to Huashan. It has been nearly four months, right?"

Cui Zhifang and Zhao Zhijing are both disciples of Wang Chuyi. Over the past year, Cui Zhifang has been impressed by Zhao Zhijing's actions, who has become a completely different person, and he respects this senior brother very much.

"Yes, Uncle Li, it is indeed almost four months."

At that time, Qiu Chuji and the other five Quanzhen disciples decided to let Zhao Zhijing make amends for his crime and go down the mountain to preach for Quanzhen Sect, which caused quite a stir in the entire Chongyang Palace.

Some people thought that this was deliberate favoritism. Originally, sentencing Zhao Zhijing to three years of solitary confinement was already a lenient sentence, but in less than two months, not only was he released, but he was also entrusted with an important task.

Some people think that this is a wise decision. Zhao Zhijing's leaving Chongyang Palace means he has given up the candidate for the next headmaster. Moreover, most of his fellow third-generation disciples were taught a lesson by him in Sanqing Hall that day. It is better to part ways now than to have any disputes in the future.

However, no one expected that on the day Zhao Zhijing left Chongyang Palace, none of his disciples chose to stay, and they didn't even seem to hesitate at all.

"Although this Yunv Peak is a Feng Shui treasure land, everything has to start from scratch. Can you brothers adapt to it?"

As the saying goes, love the house and love the dog. Cui Zhifang came to Huashan with his uncle and master today. Looking at the Taoist temple that has been mostly built, he knew in his heart that it would definitely not be an easy task for these younger disciples.

Liu Qingxing replied in a relaxed tone: "Thank you for your concern, Uncle Master. We can all adapt. And as long as we can follow Master, even if we have to sleep in the open and live a hard life, it doesn't matter."

"Besides, before the Taoist temple was built, there was a place to stay on the Jade Maiden Peak, so no one felt it was hard."

Cui Zhifang nodded. When Uncle Qiu and Master just went up the mountain, all the disciples under Brother Zhao came out to pay their respects. Although they all looked busy and hard-working, their faces were full of energy and they did not look depressed or tired at all.

Li Zhichang was also touched after hearing this. Compared with when they were in Chongyang Palace, these disciples were now obviously more cheerful and cheerful.

The rules of the Quanzhen Sect clearly state that all disciples within the sect must be friendly to their fellow disciples. So why can't they tolerate Brother Zhao and these dozen children?

"Your Grandmaster Qiu and Master have something to say to your master at the top of Yunv Peak. It may take a long time, so there is no need to worry and do not go up to disturb them."

"Also Qingxing, you should go and do your work. You don't have to stay here with the two of us."

When Liu Qingxing heard his uncle's instructions, he knew that the two might have something to say, so he apologized, bowed respectfully and left.

"Brother Li, do you have any news about Brother Zhen Zhibing?"

Li Zhichang shook his head and said, "I only heard people say that they seemed to have seen him at the border of the Western Regions, but I can't be sure."

Before Zhao Zhijing left Chongyang Palace, Zhen Zhibing took the initiative to find his master Qiu Chuji and said that he wanted to go down the mountain to preach for the Quanzhen Sect and to hone his character at the same time.

At that time, Li Zhichang had just become the third-generation chief disciple, but he also knew that among his peers, the two senior brothers Zhao Zhijing and Zhen Zhibing had always been the leaders. If it weren't for the Sanqing Temple incident, he would never have taken on the heavy responsibility of inheriting the Quanzhen Sect's lineage. "Western border? H-h-h-why did Senior Brother Zhen go to the Western Regions?"

Cui Zhifang could not hide his surprise when he heard this, and he almost said directly, "How could a disciple of Quanzhen Sect like him go to the Western Regions to preach?"

Li Zhichang had the same idea and sighed, "I don't know either. Ever since Senior Brother Zhen followed Master back to the mountain a few years ago, something seems to be wrong."

"You also know what happened afterwards. Given Senior Brother Zhen's character, it is impossible for him to participate in those activities of spreading rumors and slandering Senior Brother Zhao, but he just didn't even explain."

After Zhao Zhijing and Zhen Zhibing left Chongyang Palace, Li Zhichang and Cui Zhifang became the disciples with the highest martial arts skills among the three generations. However, they both knew that their skills could not be compared with those of their two senior brothers Zhao and Zhen.

This time when they arrived at Huashan, they found that Zhao Zhijing had already built a Taoist temple there. Obviously, he had no intention of returning to Chongyang Palace, so Cui Zhifang asked about Zhen Zhibing's news.

Li Zhichang also hoped that Senior Brother Zhen would be able to come back after going down the mountain for training, and become a great help to Chongyang Palace in the future. Even if the teachers finally decided to let Senior Brother Zhen take over as the headmaster, he would not have any objection.

But now Senior Brother Zhen is heading all the way to the Western Regions. I really don’t know what his plan is.

"The reason I went down the mountain was to deal with the Red Snake Fairy Li Mochou. It was rumored in the martial arts world that she was very beautiful, so she was called a fairy."

"Could it be that Senior Brother Zhen has some delusional thoughts?"

Li Zhichang was puzzled by Zhen Zhibing's change and even had this guess in his mind, but of course he never mentioned it to anyone else.

Faced with this situation, the two could only remain silent, silently watching the hard-working disciples of Zhao Zhijing not far away. They couldn't help but feel emotional, and thought that if those things hadn't happened, it would be great if Senior Brothers Zhao and Zhen were still in Chongyang Palace.

It was not until dusk when Qiu Chuji, Wang Chuyi and Zhao Zhijing returned from the top of the mountain that the two men put aside their thoughts and went to meet them.

"Uncle Qiu, Master, it's hard to travel at night. If there's nothing important, why not stay here for one night?"

Just now at the top of the Jade Maiden Peak, Zhao Zhijing did not wait until the time when the sun set as Qiu Chuji said, but walked out of the cave after he felt he had tried his best.

When asked how much he had comprehended about the Xiantian Gong, Zhao Zhijing only said that the internal energy was too profound and subtle, and he could only comprehend three or four points for the time being.

"It is already precious that you can pass the test of the founder of the religion. No matter how much you can understand in the end, you must not lose the indifferent heart of people like us who practice Taoism."

Qiu Chuji first carefully put away the Xiantian Gong that Zhao Zhijing returned, and then he said, "Now that you have decided to build a temple on Yunv Peak to practice, you must be neither arrogant nor impatient in the future, and carry forward the Quanzhen Sect's tradition."

"Yes, I will follow the instructions of Uncle Qiu and Master."

Seeing that Zhao Zhijing remained calm after acquiring the Xiantian Gong, Qiu Chuji couldn't help but think of the reason why he asked him to go down the mountain to preach. If Zhao Zhijing had just restrained himself from his impulse that day, wouldn't he have been the next leader of Quanzhen Sect?

But it was too late to say anything now. He could only point at him and sigh, "You! You!"

Zhao Zhijing could guess what Qiu Chuji was thinking, so he bowed without saying anything.

The leader of Quanzhen Sect is naturally a great person, but I just don't like him.
