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

Chapter 224 Cleaning up the portal
"Brother, have you noticed that Qingshu seems to be a bit strange these days?"

After Song Yuanqiao received the news sent by Song Qingshu, he wondered what big event could happen in Xianyang City that would be more important than the six major sects joining forces to destroy the Demon Cult?

However, Song Yuanqiao is already over fifty years old, and he is also the eldest brother of the Wudang Sect. He is very shrewd. If he were to delve into the matter further, it would delay things. Therefore, he did not say much and led everyone out directly.

In comparison, Yin Liting, the sixth junior brother, was a little impatient. Moreover, after the news of Zhang Wuji, the child of fifth senior brother Zhang Cuishan, disappeared more than ten years ago, he was most likely no longer alive. Therefore, Song Qingshu, as the only child among his fellow disciples, naturally received more care.

"Sixth brother, why do you and I need to play dumb?"

Seeing his junior asking questions, Song Yuanqiao simply said, "Just say whatever you want to say."

"Yes, Qingshu is the best among the third and fourth generation disciples. Not only is he talented, but he is also willing to work hard. We brothers and sisters have all witnessed this."

"But in recent days, when I was in the mountains, I found that he was not as diligent as before, and there was something indescribable about his every move."

Seeing that Yin Liting couldn't find the right words, Zhang Songxi, the most alert among the five, continued, "Sixth brother, are you worried that Qingshu has been traveling around the world too much and made friends with bad people, so he can't focus on practicing martial arts?"

Yin Liting has been brooding over Ji Xiaofu's matter for all these years. In addition, the scene of his fifth senior brother Zhang Cuishan marrying Yin Susu, the daughter of Yin Tianzheng of the Sky Eagle Sect, and having to commit suicide at his master's 100th birthday banquet to apologize for his crime is still vivid in his mind.

"Fourth brother is only half right. When it comes to major issues, I believe Qingshu will not go astray. But he is in his twenties now, and I am afraid he will make a mistake in matters between men and women."

The other four people all understood the deep meaning of Yin Liting's words. After a moment of silence, the most upright seventh apprentice brother Mo Shenggu said in a deep voice: "Sixth brother is right. Our journey to the Western Regions this time will take at least two or three months."

"Besides, there are also many female disciples in the Emei and Huashan sects. It's a good opportunity to see how Qingshu will treat them."

Yu Lianzhou on the side has always been taciturn and the most serious in the Wudang Sect. Not to mention the younger disciples, even the younger brothers below him are in awe of him.

However, he is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and he attaches great importance to the friendship between fellow apprentices. He does not want the eldest brother's child to go astray, so he speaks to persuade him.

"Brother, this matter cannot be forced. Qingshu is not young anymore. If he really has someone he likes, as long as the other person has good character, then we should report it to Master and arrange a marriage for him as soon as possible."

Song Yuanqiao knew that his fellow apprentices were all sincerely thinking about Qingshu and hoped that he would be able to take over the important task of being the head of the Wudang Sect in the future. He nodded and said, "Although the Demon Sect's momentum is not as strong as before, we must not take it lightly. Let's concentrate on fighting the enemy."

"As for Qingshu's matter, I can take care of it myself."

Song Qingshu sat in front of Guan Man'er's tombstone for a day and a night, and his chaotic mood finally calmed down.

The descendants of various families, led by Xu Zhuo, also came here after handling related matters and stayed quietly by the side.

Among them, Xu Zhuo is the descendant of Xu Qinghao, Guan Yuerou is the descendant of Guan Shengnan, and the two young men, one named Zhang Yao and the other named Cao Chengping, are descendants of Zhang Qingzhi and Cao Qinghua respectively.

"Grandmaster, the leader of the thieves is indeed Xian Yutong's confidant. In order to hide his identity, he specially sought help from the underworld. After the deed is accomplished, we will cut off the roots and eliminate them completely, so that nothing can be leaked."

Seeing Song Qingshu slowly standing up, Xu Zhuo immediately stepped forward and reported in detail the information he had obtained from the interrogation.

The treasures were only secondary, the secrets hidden in the Dragon Slaying Saber and the Heavenly Sword were the most important. After all, the rumor that whoever got the Dragon Slaying Saber could become the supreme master of the martial arts world had been circulating in the martial arts world for decades, but no one had ever been able to crack it. In addition, there was the martial arts secret book left by the Condor Hero Yang Guo. Xian Yutong was good at scheming, but his martial arts were only second-rate, so he naturally wanted to get the peerless martial arts that belonged to the Huashan School.

But to Song Qingshu, these things were just gifts from his disciples, and the items themselves were not worth mentioning.

"I have to go to the Western Regions to deal with the affairs of the Ming Cult and cannot leave for the time being, so please keep him here for now. I will make plans when I take back the position of the head of Huashan."

"In addition, I would like to ask everyone to work hard during this period of time and try to find out the details of everyone in Huashan Sect so that it will be convenient to decide how to deal with them when the time comes."

When Xu Zhuo and others heard that Song Qingshu was actually planning to take back the position of the head of Huashan Sect, they were extremely surprised.

Judging from what happened last night, Song Qingshu was able to subdue four people in an instant by himself. His martial arts skills are indeed amazing.

But Huashan Sect is one of the six major sects. Even if its leader Xian Yutong's martial arts skills are a little weak, how can he be easy to deal with? Moreover, reason is the most important thing in the martial arts world. It is not enough to overthrow the leader of Huashan Sect with just the one-sided words of a confidant.

"Master is the reincarnation of an immortal, so he naturally has great magical powers. We should just follow his orders."

Xu Zhuo's mind suddenly changed, and he bowed and said, "Yes, disciple obeys your command!"

In fact, in Song Qingshu's opinion, it was quite difficult for the Huashan Sect, which was later founded by his disciple Liu Qingxing, to survive for a hundred years in the turbulent times.

As for how much of the strength and prestige from that time remains, it is really beyond human control. Wang Chongyang, the founder of Quanzhen Sect, and Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang Sect, were such great figures that there were also unworthy people among their disciples.

It just so happens that Zhao Zhijing and Song Qingshu are among them.

But now that he's here, he must clean up the mess. Besides, Xian Yutong's position as the head of the sect was not obtained legitimately, so there's no reason to just let it go.

"After we take back the Huashan Sect, we will let Xu Zhuo and the others become our disciples, and together with other disciples who are not expelled from the sect, we will serve as the basis for returning their skills."

"Become number one in the world as soon as possible, complete the mission in this world, reunite with Man'er and the others, and then find a way to have the best of both worlds."

Song Qingshu was not originally in a hurry to become the best in the world, but wanted to use this identity to travel around the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.

But after meeting Guan Man'er, his mentality changed drastically. Song Qingshu, who originally thought that he could rest easy for the time being as his martial arts were enough to protect himself, now has to make plans for the future in advance and can no longer be as leisurely as when he first arrived.

As for how to handle the relationships within the Wudang Sect, Zhang Sanfeng, as the master in this life, has once received instruction from Yang Guo, so he can just put all things on the table at that time. I believe that with Master Zhang's mental experience over the past hundred years, he will be able to understand something.

Several decisions were made within this day, and it was time to leave. Song Qingshu took one last look at Guan Maner's tombstone, then looked at Xu Zhuo and others.

"Just do your best to investigate the Huashan Sect, and don't put yourself in danger. If you encounter any difficulties, wait until I come back."
