Who let him join the Sword Sect!

Chapter 278 The Hopeful Second Generation of Immortals

Beast Control Sect.

Old Sect Master Li looked at the empty lake and sighed.

The broad back now looked somewhat desolate, and the smell of a lonely old man came to the face.

He is indeed a lonely old man.

My son and daughter-in-law are now living a happy life in Xizhou and will never come back home.

My grandchildren used to be quite obedient, but recently they suddenly became high and before I could discipline them, they ran away from home last night.

What makes me most angry is that they ran away from home. Not only did they leave, but they also took some things with them when they left.

Linglu Valley was taken away by those little bastards just last night.

Not only his grandchildren and the little girl from the Sword Sect left, but also almost all the Thousand Machine monks stationed here, half of the monks from the Medicine King Valley, and all the demon tribes.

The speed of the action and the length of planning made it impossible to guard against.

Those who knew thought that the little bastards were causing trouble, while those who didn’t thought that their sect had been robbed.

The reason why they left so quietly was not because the old Sect Master Li was old and not in good spirits in the middle of the night, but because the old turtle Zhu Luo was also fooling around with the children.

It's like a thief in the house that is hard to guard against.

It used water to build a fake mountain, blocking the aura of Linglu Valley, and then replaced it. If the disciple who took over the shift tonight had not fallen into the lake as soon as he climbed the mountain, he would have to wait until tomorrow to discover this.

What went wrong with my education?
Why is there no one who can make me worry less?

Just as the old Sect Master Li was lamenting how difficult life was, a disciple flew out from the lake. He seemed to have something to report, but he looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, not knowing where to start.

"Tell me, where is Elder Han?" Li Laozong glanced at the disciple.

Elder Han is in charge of the lake, so if you want to escape via Linglu Valley, it’s impossible to get around him.

"Elder Han's disciples didn't see Elder Han. He hung a sign at the gate of Dragon Palace saying that he had a stomach cold recently and was not able to see guests recently." The disciple spoke hesitantly.

Old Sect Leader Li was a little depressed, thinking that the old bastard had also run away.

"A meeting is underway. Go and inform all the elders that those who don't have a cold stomach should come here."

The disciple shrank his neck and dared not reply. The old master dared to scold him, but he did not dare. He could only retreat step by step until he reached behind a big tree. He called his white crane, mounted it, and disappeared without a trace.

A quarter of an hour later.

Old Sect Master Li looked at the conference room which was only half full of people, his head buzzing.

Only half of the meeting room was occupied, and the other half of the chairs were covered with signs.

The signs listed various difficult and complicated diseases, such as cold stomach, cold hands, dizziness, irregular menstruation, forgetting to drink hot water, etc.

These signs were found at the elders' residences.

Those who know know that this is the Beast Taming Sect, while those who don’t think this is a party at a nursing home.

The other elders present all took advantage of the low pressure here and sat quietly, sipping their tea and waiting for the old sect leader to speak.

"What's wrong with you? Is it because you are usually unpopular that they don't want to play with you, or are you staying here to cover for those little bastards?"

The old Sect Master Li was probably really angry, and he spoke in a sarcastic tone.

The year-old elder stroked his braided beard and said with a smile, "We brothers are in good health, so it's inevitable that we won't get sick. Besides, someone has to look after the house."

It was probably because this elder with braids started the conversation, and the other elders also began to talk about it, trying to get the matter over with.

"It's a nice day today."

"Yeah yeah."

"Hey, Old Liu, how are those sacred cows you raised doing lately?"

"General, general."

The old sect leader Li coughed, and the elders immediately fell silent.

After a while, several disciples of the Beast Taming Sect were brought in.

When Li Jue and Li Yueqi ran away, they also took away many of their friends, who were basically Jindan disciples of the same generation as them. These people had been the focus of training in the Beastmaster Sect in recent years and were the hope of the next generation.

Today, there aren't many left.

A cunning male disciple seemed to have been prepared. Before the old sect leader could ask, he knelt on one knee, slid two meters in front of the old sect leader, and then clasped his hands and bowed.

"Disciple Ma Li knows his fault and is willing to accept the punishment."

Elder Sect Leader Li glanced at the boy with drooping eyelids, "Tell me, what did you do wrong?"

"Alas, I am caught in the middle, it's difficult to be both loyal and righteous. I do know that Senior Brother Li is going to Xinhe Liansheng. He once personally met with me at night and invited me to go with him."

"Then why didn't you leave?" asked the old sect leader Li.

"My heart is with the Beastmaster Sect! The sect has trained me for many years, how could I betray them? I wanted to report it right then and there, but Li Jue and I are like brothers, so I couldn't do such a treacherous thing!"

"So?" The old sect leader Li raised his hand and motioned him to get up first.

"Alas, I didn't expect Brother Li to be so decisive and a man who could accomplish great things. Seeing me hesitate, he knocked me out with a shovel. Look at my end, I just woke up."

Mali tilted his head to show the old sect leader the big bump on his head.

"Tell the truth." After watching the performance of this little bastard, the old sect leader Li said lightly.

This guy has good psychological quality and wanted to make excuses, but one word from the old Sect Leader Li directly shattered all his beliefs.

"Didn't your father take you with him when he ran away?"

horsepower,"?"

Only then did Ma Li have time to look around the meeting room. After a look, he found that his father was not there, and there was an extra sign at the seat where his father usually sat.

Stomach pain

The pony was sold by his father, the old horse.
Seeing this, Xiao Ma knelt down again and said, "Reporting to the Sect Master, I only stayed here because I lost the lottery. Li Jue also said that after they settle down, I can run away on the way to the Qinghe Association and join them."

"I am a humble disciple. I was originally a pioneer, helping the old sect master to fraudulently open the Xinhe Liansheng branch."

"Go play somewhere else, it's not like we're really splitting up." The old clan leader was also amused by Xiao Ma and waved his hand to let him get up.

"Xiao Ma." Elder Sect Master Li thought for a moment and said, "Go and call over those disciples who didn't follow and have good cultivation."

"Yes, disciple dares to ask, what are you going to do, old sect master?" Xiao Ma was smart and felt that the old sect master had something else to say.

"Those little bastards got away, but the Qinghe Society has to have someone join. Call them over, and I'll personally train them for a few days. I only have one request: When you see someone from Xinhe Liansheng at the Qinghe Society, beat him up!"

Xiao Ma's eyes lit up, and he exchanged glances with several of his companions who had lost the draw and stayed behind. They all thought they were lucky. They didn't expect that they missed out on the fun but had such benefits.

"Hurry up and go!" said the old sect leader Li.

"Order!"

Xiao Ma and the others responded and turned into several green lights and flew out.

"And you." After the group of little brats left, the old Sect Master Li looked at the elders again.

"For those who escape, each will have their salary deducted for fifty years, and the deducted portion will be added to your rank. Also, if you have any outstanding disciples, bring them along this time."

After the old Sect Leader Li finished speaking, there was a burst of flattery in the conference room.

"The old master is wise!"

Longhu Mountain.

Zhuge also yawned, feeling a little listless.

But he couldn't go back to sleep because the Heavenly Masters were still arguing, discussing the fact that his junior uncle had run away from home again.

He had to come because he was the third candidate to be the next leader of Mount Longhu.

Originally, he was the second one to come, but because of the sudden appearance of Senior Brother Zhang and the sudden illness of Sect Leader Tang, Zhang Ze's name was engraved on the iron scroll of Longhu Mountain. After he became the Grand Elder, he became the third one.

But he didn't care.

It’s troublesome to think about being the headmaster. It’s better to lie on the bed and be free and easy.

Listening to the adults' endless quarrel, he yawned again.

Li Guanqi, who was sitting opposite him, looked at Zhuge Ye with some envy.

But even though he was envious, he didn't dare yawn now, because that would be like adding fuel to the fire.

Helpless, he could only lower his head and continue sipping the tea.

He felt that he had been in conflict with Longhu Mountain recently. The last time he came back, not only did he lose his salary for thirty years, but his apprentice also became the junior brother of the Longhu Mountain's master.

This time I came to Longhu to discuss the underground transmission matter. It was all fine, but I didn't expect that I would be detained just when I was about to leave.

The young leader of Longhu Mountain was abducted by the people of their Sword Sect again.

After Li Guanqi finished drinking one cup, he was about to pour himself another cup, but found that the teapot was empty.

The young Taoist priest sitting opposite him also discovered this.

Seeing this, Zhuge also stood up eagerly, wanting to take the teapot and use the tea to escape. But who was Lao Li? He immediately thought of this and went out the door first, carrying the teapot.

Helplessly, Zhuge sat back down.

But before he could even sit down, the matter was brought back to his head.

"Xiao Ye, at this Qinghe meeting, we will represent Longhu Mountain to defeat Xinhe Liansheng and teach your junior uncle a lesson."

Zhuge was about to complain, but then his eyes flashed and he had an idea. He quickly stood up and said, "Master is right. It is my duty to protect the Longhu Mountain Taoist tradition. However, Junior Master's Taoist methods are so profound that I am afraid I cannot defeat him. To be safe, I plan to go into seclusion now."

After saying this, he stood up, bowed deeply to his master and all the heavenly beings, and then backed out of the room. But as soon as he was out, he revealed his true form like a monkey and ran away with his sleeves swung, completely unlike the lazy look he had just had in the room.

After sprinting down the mountain with his Tiangang Steps, he stopped to stretch, then became lazy again. "Yeah~ Go home and sleep!"

Zhuge, who had successfully escaped, hummed a little tune as he strolled back to the back mountain. Just after passing the bamboo forest, he saw his junior brother sweeping the floor from afar. Zhuge walked up quickly and pulled his hair bun with his hand.

"Xiaoqing, have you made any progress in your cultivation recently?"

The young Taoist priest named Wang Qing frowned, a little impatient, and waved his brother's hand away, "Don't touch me. Every time you untie me, I have to tie it up again for a long time."

"From what you said, it seems as if Senior Brother is a bad person."

"You are the bad guy!"

"You kid, I, your elder brother, will not bear grudges against you, so I will give you a gift."

Zhuge also took out a secret book from behind him like a magic trick, then snatched the broom from Wang Qing's hand and slapped the secret book into Wang Qing's hand.

"I got it from outside the mountain, '100 Life Hacks'."

Zhuge also pointed his finger, and the broom moved by itself and began to sweep the courtyard automatically. Then he tapped his head, and his somewhat messy bun was immediately straightened up.

"How about it? It's awesome."

Zhuge also continued to rub Xiao Wangqing's head.

"Generally speaking, a moment of quietude and sitting still is a form of spiritual practice. How can you use these external objects? Alas! You..."

Before Xiao Wangqing could finish his words, Zhuge Ye undid his hair and crumpled it into a ball. After doing all this, Zhuge Ye appeared ten meters away in a flash. After making a face at Xiao Wangqing, he left with a hearty laugh.

Wang Qing looked at Zhuge Ye's departing back, stomped his feet angrily, and then immediately calmed himself down. After calming down, he walked to the side and re-combed his hair bit by bit.

As for Zhuge Ye, after he ran back to his residence, he turned over and lay back on the bed, casually throwing a handful of six-yao copper coins, but after the coins fell to the ground, he didn't even look at them and fell asleep directly.

As for the elders, they had stopped discussing and were waiting for someone.

This time, Xiao Tang escaped openly. Although he had the help of Tianyanpan, he still left many traces.

Several Heavenly Masters have gone out to search following the clues. In fact, five of them have already returned, leaving only one.

They are waiting for the Heavenly Master to return.

Not long after, a Taoist priest with a dusty face walked into the room.

This person's face was originally as red as a date, and now, whether it was because of anger or some other reason, it had turned red and even purple.

"did you find it?"

"The Beast Taming Sect is so angry that it makes me cringe!"

The red-faced Taoist priest also had a bad temper. After shouting angrily, he sat down in the seat before Li Guanqi. He wanted to drink some tea to moisten his throat, but found that the teacup was empty. He wanted to get the teapot to pour tea, but found that the teapot was gone.

He slammed the table again and said angrily, "I've found the person, but I didn't bring him back!"

"Why?" asked a fat Taoist priest.

He knew his friend's temper. He would not come back unless it was force majeure. Moreover, this man would not give face to anyone unless he could not defeat him.

"That senior turtle from the Beast Taming Sect and a group of elders were all hanging out with Xinhe Liansheng. I went to get them, but I didn't win."

The others also felt that it was a bit troublesome when they heard this.

"Well, forget it then. It's good to know where he is. Since those people are looking after him, I think Xiao Tang will be fine. You just happened to be back. We have something else to discuss with you."

"Tell me!" the red-faced Taoist priest shouted.

"Let's study the matter of the next headmaster." The fat Taoist priest said. They had actually already discussed the result of this matter before the red-faced Taoist priest came back.

"What do you mean!" The red-faced Taoist priest stared at the fat man in front of him with his eyes wide open.

The fat man wasn't angry at all, and continued to talk to himself, "You've seen what Little Tang looks like. Although this kid is honest, he's just like Sect Leader Tang at heart. Who knows, he might run away again someday."

"Then isn't there Zhuge as well?" asked the red-faced Taoist priest. He didn't mention Zhang Ze directly.

"Xiao Ye doesn't like to run away from home, but his personality is too free and easy. He spends the whole day sleeping and daydreaming, which is no different from being lost. And if he gets angry and runs away from home, then we really won't be able to find him." The fat Taoist priest said calmly.

The red-faced Taoist priest thought so too.

"Just tell me what you have discussed."

"Wang Qing is a good kid. He has excellent talent and character, and he is serious and responsible. If there are no mistakes in the future, I think he will be a good kid." said the fat Taoist priest.

"Straightforward substitution? Isn't that inappropriate?"

"Of course not, I'm just adding him as a backup. Just in case Xiao Tang gets lost one day, or Xiao Ye quits, we have to be prepared. I'll talk to him about this in a few days."

After hearing this, the red-faced Taoist priest nodded in agreement, but after sitting for a while he suddenly stood up again.

"Old Wei, where are you going again?" asked the fat angel.

"Someone is not taking care of his apprentice, so I'll take care of him. We can't let him lose face for Longhu Mountain at the Qinghe Conference."

Back mountain.

The small courtyard where Zhuge also lived.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, a powerful kick came at him. His Six-Line Gold Coin Formation, which he had used to defend against Xiao Wang Qing, was powerless against this kick.

Zhuge was kicked off the bed. He rolled on the ground for a few times, and after getting up and seeing who was coming, he chuckled and said, "Master Wei, you're back."

"Humph, you're back late! Come on, follow me!"

"Where?"

"Your Master Wei, let me test your quality to save you from embarrassment later."

Zhuge also complained bitterly. When he was being carried by his master Wei through the courtyard, he saw little Wang Qing making a face at him.

Qianji Pavilion.

Lu Ning sat in a large conference room at Zhashide, feeling somewhat confused.

She originally came here to poach people.

But now Qiang has run away from home and Qiang's mother has taken care of Qiang's corner, so his shovel is suddenly useless.

I was originally planning to fulfill my duties, but then I heard from my master that I should just have fun, and that Senior Brother Shi would take care of the important matters.

In short, she has nothing to do now.

During this period, she has been chatting with Li Yu and others at the construction site, and in her spare time, she has been instructing them on some methods of spiritual cultivation.

Li Yu and others also taught her a lot about the maintenance and decoration of the soul box.

Today, for some unknown reason, she was suddenly dragged here again, and followed the group of monsters from Qianji Town to attend the Qianji Town Business Joint Conference?

What the hell.

On the rostrum, a six-tailed fox was giving an impassioned speech about the development of commerce and how to make the Qianji Town Business Federation famous and take advantage of the Qinghe Conference to spread it throughout Dongzhou.

In order to do this, we must select a group to grow up. Only by uniting together can we fight against the behemoth that is Zhendong Trading Company.

Lu Ning listened to the fox's speech, glanced at the Zhendong Trading Company logo on her body, and said nothing.

After all, they are demons, so this is normal.

Lu Ning didn't care at first, but as she listened, she had a new idea.

If I could join this union, then I would have an excuse to come here later.

Can we even go further?
If he becomes the president and expands the guild further, won't he be able to take over the reins and take advantage of Zhang Ze?
After figuring this out for a while, Lu Ning immediately stood up, joined the discussion, and even raised the banner of Tianzong.

However, after the intense and exciting discussions, the candidate for president was not decided.

The only thing that was decided was that the monkey was not allowed to go to Qinghe Club to sell his new pancakes and ruin the reputation of Qianji Town.

Qianji Pavilion.

Lily was also holding a meeting for the monks of Qianji Pavilion.

"Although we are just a group of researchers and don't have a strong force, we will also participate in this Qinghe Conference."

"Let the cultivators of Dongzhou see us, see the fruits of our labor, and see the power of our Thousand Machine Magical Instruments."

"I don't have too many requests for everyone, only one."

"In every competition, I don't seek victory, I only seek mutual destruction. A draw means we win. Do you understand?"

"Our strength is not important. What's important is the strength of the Thousand Machine Magical Instruments. Let them see that even a bunch of weaklings like us can still defeat them with these Thousand Machine Magical Instruments!"

"Let them know that we are not cowards!"

"Qianji Trading Company has opened branches all over Dongzhou. If there are no problems in this battle, everyone can adjourn!"

After the monks, who had been fooled by Lily and become passionate, left, Fu Ji crawled out of the ground.

"Lily, this isn't right. We're all from the same sect, and you're trying to trick them into stepping on your behalf and eliminating your opponent."

"You don't understand, this is called tactics. And as the Vice-President, it's perfectly normal for me to use my position to seek personal gain!"

"Sad, Lily, I think you're sick. Let me check you out."

Fu Ji learned something and put it into practice, using her position to seek some benefits for herself. She stretched out her tentacles and tied up Lily.

Jiange.

After the holiday, Zhang Ze was taken back to the mountain by his mother-in-law. Before starting his practice tonight, he took another look down the mountain.

For some reason, he always had the illusion that this Qinghe meeting would be very lively.

"I hope Qinghe will be okay."
