Junior brother, he is both wild and fierce

"Qingzhi."

"Qingzhi?"

The sect leader wondered in confusion.

What's wrong with this kid?

Standing there motionless, like a wooden stake.

The voice in her ear pulled her out of the cold swamp.

When she woke up from her desperate memories, she saw a worried look on her master's face.

"master."

"You kid, the master called you several times but you didn't respond. Are you still blaming the master because of what happened last time?"

The last time that happened was a lifetime ago, and she couldn't remember it clearly.

Lin Qingzhi shook his head, "No...no."

"Alas, you have been hiding from Master for the past few months, and you still say you are not angry?" The Sect Master stepped forward and touched the top of Lin Qingzhi's head, "Qingzhi, Master didn't let you go because it is for your own good, don't be angry with Master."

She remembered.

A few months ago, when Shen Chu went to Weilu Mountain to eliminate evil spirits, she had begged her master to let her go to Weilu Mountain to help her senior brother, but her master refused and even confined her to her house for three days.

Because of this, she was angry with her master, so she kept avoiding him.

After experiencing his previous life, Lin Qingzhi now realizes how wrong he was.

The master was the only one in Taohua Sect who was wholeheartedly kind to her.

At that time, she was only at the Qi Refining Stage, and going to Weilu Mountain was tantamount to seeking death.

The master knew that her heart was entirely on her senior brother Shen Chu at that time, and was afraid that she would secretly follow him to Weilu Mountain, so he punished her by confining her to her room and not allowing her to leave.

Plop.

Lin Qingzhi knelt heavily on the ground, tears dripping from the corners of his eyes like beads.

"Master, Qingzhi is wrong."

"Qingzhi, I'm wrong, really wrong, Master."

In the previous life, the master was determined to protect her even if it meant giving up the position of the sect leader.

She was too stupid to recognize who was a human and who was a ghost.

"Qingzhi, what are you doing?"

Lin Yuan quickly pulled his little apprentice up.

"Master, I have never blamed you for anything. Come on...cool down on the ground."

Although his little disciple's cultivation is not very good, he is his most beloved one.

Fifteen years ago, he went down the mountain to travel and rescued Xiao Qingzhi, who was abandoned in the river as a baby.

He sighed at the time that the baby was lucky enough not to be drowned in the river, but drifted far along the river before he rescued him.

Xiao Qingzhi was very well behaved. He didn't cry or make any noise while being held in his arms all the way. He just stared at him quietly. He was so cute.

He had just come down the mountain and had to continue his travels, so it was not convenient to bring a baby with him. Therefore, he planned to give Xiao Qingzhi to a nearby farmer.

A strange thing happened. He found several farmers, but as soon as he handed Xiao Qingzhi over to them, Xiao Qingzhi would start crying loudly and was about to faint from crying. But as soon as he held her in his arms, Xiao Qingzhi would stop crying again.

He had no choice but to take Xiaoqing with him on the road.

After wandering for a few years, he was uneasy about entrusting Xiao Qingzhi to anyone, so he brought Xiao Qingzhi back to Taohuamen.

He lived for a hundred years and never married or had children, but in his heart he had long regarded Xiao Qingzhi as his own child.

Sometimes after saying something harsh, he would start to regret it before he even walked out the door.

At this time, seeing Qingzhi crying and saying that he was wrong, he felt uncomfortable.

"It's okay, it's all over, don't cry, silly child, there are outsiders here, you can cry like a little cat, you are not afraid of being laughed at, "

Lin Yuan helped Lin Qingzhi up, and the sect leader smiled apologetically to Qi Sangrong and others standing beside him.

"Master Qi, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. We haven't finished talking just now. Please go in first."

Qi Sang smiled and nodded.

"Qingzhi, you go in with the master."

Lin Qingzhi wiped her tears and followed them into the house.

Qi Sangrong and the old man sat on the chairs on the right, while she sat on the left with her master, listening to their conversation quietly.

"Master Lin, do you know the Qiongqi secret realm?"

The Qiongqi Secret Realm opens once every three years, where vicious monsters run rampant and there are countless rare treasures from heaven and earth.

However, the Qiongqi Secret Realm has always been guarded and occupied by people from the eight major sects all year round, and serves as a place for their disciples to practice trials.

Lin Yuan replied: "I know, but I wonder why Patriarch Qi mentioned this Qiongqi Secret Realm?"

Qi Sangrong said slowly, "In another month, the Qiongqi Secret Realm will open again. I can provide some places for the disciples of Taohua Sect to participate in the trial."

Available places?

Lin Yuan's face showed no emotion, but a huge wave of emotions was surging in her heart.

Lin Qingzhi's expression froze as he looked at the elegant nobleman Qi Sangrung opposite him.

Can he really offer a place?

In the world of cultivators, only the strong are respected.

The powerful sects and families occupy a large amount of cultivation resources. They have a lot of secret realm resources in their hands. It is extremely difficult for weak sects like them to survive. How can they compete with these powerful sects and families for these cultivation resources?

This also results in powerful sects and families becoming increasingly powerful, while small sects that are unable to seize resources will only perish in the long river of history.

Lin Yuan couldn't suppress his excitement, he stood up.

"Master Qi, are you telling the truth?"

Qi Sangrung smiled.

"It's just a few places. It's not difficult for me, Qi. I never lie about what I said. I just don't know if Sect Master Lin is interested in letting the disciples take part in the trial."

If we could really provide places for the disciples of Taohua Sect to participate in this trial, even if they didn't have the chance to encounter rare treasures, it would be a sure win if they could pick some spiritual herbs and plants back.

only........

Lin Yuan looked at Qi Sangrong with a serious expression, and said, "Master Qi, I know very well how precious the quota you offer is. There is no such thing as a free lunch. Master Qi, what are your conditions? Tell me."

Qi Sangrong smiled like a little fox. His eyes stayed on Lin Qingzhi for a moment, and then he said to Lin Yuan nonchalantly, "If Qi really says there are no conditions, will Sect Master Lin believe it?"

Although Qi Sangrong only glanced at Lin Qingzhi, Lin Yuan still discovered the clue.

Does Patriarch Qi have...a liking for Qingzhi?

Although he is chatting and laughing with the head of the Qi family now, they may draw their swords at the next moment.

Qi Sangrong's parents died early, and it was rumored that he had a treacherous and changeable personality and vicious means. At the age of thirteen, he suppressed all the side branches of the Qi family with thundering means and sat on the position of the head of the Qi family.

Countless souls died under his command, and his hands were stained with blood. He was even given the nickname Jade-faced Yama because he killed so many people.

If Qi Sangrong really likes Qingzhi, that would be bad.

He couldn't let the future of Taohuamen be ruined by Qingzhi's future.

Lin Yuan started laughing.

"Patriarch Qi, you are joking. Everyone knows how precious this quota is. If Patriarch Qi doesn't state the conditions, I, Lin, will feel uneasy."

Qi Sangrong curled the corners of his lips. This Lin Yuan is a smart man.

Know that free things will cost the most.

Never mind, he still has time.

He glanced at Lin Qingzhi.

Moreover, he had to confirm some things before he could make the next move.

"Master Lin, have you ever heard of blue ice flowers? This kind of flower grows in the Qiongqi Secret Realm. After the disciples of the Taohua Sect enter the secret realm, they must help me collect some blue ice flowers. This is the condition for entering the secret realm."

Of course Lin Yuan knew about blue ice flowers.

Blue ice flowers only grow in places with abundant spiritual energy. Although they are difficult to collect now, in the secret realm, blue ice flowers can be described as numerous as the hairs on a cow.

So this condition is not harsh and is extremely easy to accomplish.

He had no friendship with Qi Sangrong, and Taohuamen was just a small sect. The reality was that it was not even worthy of Qi Sangrong's attention.

Qi Sangrong's sudden visit to Taohuamen this time must be for someone.

Judging from what happened at the disciple-taking ceremony, Qi Sangrong came for Qingzhi.

If he accepted the opportunity to participate in the secret trial, would it harm Qingzhi?

Lin Yuan's thoughts raced, and after a long while, he slowly said, "Lin would like to thank Patriarch Qi for his kindness. The places in the secret realm trials are precious, and Taohua Sect is not lucky enough to have them. Or..."

A shattering sound sounded.

The tea porcelain on the table suddenly exploded and fell to the ground in pieces.
