I trade in both worlds

Xuan Qing Zhenren laughed, his smile full of wisdom and kindness: "My friend, there is no need to be modest. Appearance is determined by the heart. Your face has already explained everything. However, although fate is determined, it is not absolutely unchangeable. The key lies in your own choices and efforts."

Xu Jin and the others were all thinking deeply when they heard this. They knew that this Xuan Qing Zhenren was no ordinary person, and it was a blessing to hear his words.

Xu Weihao asked: "Master, how can we better cultivate our character?"

Xuan Qing Zhenren pondered for a moment and said, "It takes time to cultivate one's mind. One must always keep a normal mind in daily life, not be moved by external things, and not be confused by fame and fortune."

“When you encounter difficulties, you must face them bravely and not escape; when you encounter temptations, you must stick to your original intention and not lose yourself. Only in this way can you gradually improve your character and reach a higher level.”

Chen Xingrui listened attentively and couldn't help but sigh: "Every word of what the Immortal said is a pearl, which is very beneficial. We must keep it in mind and practice diligently."

Xuan Qing Zhenren smiled slightly and said: "Remember, the path of cultivation is long and difficult, but as long as you persevere, you will achieve something."

"It is fate that we meet today. I will give each of you a talisman. I hope it can help you turn misfortune into good fortune and turn disaster into blessing on your road to study."

As he spoke, Xuan Qing Zhenren took out several talismans from his sleeve and handed them to Xu Jin and others. Everyone took the talismans, grateful, and thanked Xuan Qing Zhenren one after another.

Xu Jin, Xu Zhun and Xu Qiwei looked down at the talismans in their hands and found no difference from those of the others.

At this time, Chen Xinghuan came over with a group of four bodyguards and saluted and greeted Master Xuanqing.

Xuan Qing Zhenren looked at them and said with a smile: "Martial artists also have their own practice. Although it is different from that of scholars, they have the same goal. You brothers each have your own strengths, but you all hope to bring honor to the family and serve the country. This ambition is precious."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xinghuan smiled naively and said, "Master is right. We brothers will definitely live up to your expectations and work hard to move forward."

Xuan Qing Zhenren nodded and said, "It is rare to have such an ambition. I hope you can all find your own direction and realize your dreams in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jin and the others bowed to Master Xuan Qing and replied respectfully, "We will remember your teachings in our hearts. We will definitely live up to your expectations and move forward courageously."

Taoist Xuanqing nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Xu Jin and the other two, then turned and left.

But after taking only two steps, he stopped and turned to look at Xu Jin and the other two. His eyes revealed a complicated look, as if he had something to say but hesitated.

Xuan Qing Zhenren pondered for a moment, finally sighed, and walked back: "Mr. Xu, if you believe what I said, then go back. It is not suitable for the three of you to continue traveling and studying."

When these words were spoken, Xu Jin and the other two were all stunned, feeling confused and uncertain.

Xu Jin tried to remain calm, but his face was full of confusion: "Why do you say that? What's wrong with our trip?"

Xuan Qing Zhenren glanced at them, his eyes seemed to have thousands of words, but in the end it just turned into a sigh: "Since we have such an adventure, there is no need to stick to it. Some things are destined by fate and cannot be forced."

After saying that, he turned around and left without caring whether they understood or not.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jin and Xu Zhun were shocked and stared blankly at Taoist Xuanqing as he walked away.

Their hearts were filled with doubts and confusion. Could it be that this Taoist Xuan Qing really knew the unspeakable secret of their family, the mysterious door that leads to the modern era?

Xu Qiwei also helplessly pulled Xu Jin's sleeve, his young face full of confusion and dependence, he looked up at Xu Jin, his eyes flickering with anxiety.

He was still young and felt at a loss as to what to do with this sudden change.

Xu Jin pursed his lips tightly and looked with complicated eyes at the back of Master Xuan Qing who had disappeared around the corner in the distance.

I wanted to catch up and ask Master Xuanqing why they couldn't continue their study trip.

But I was afraid of what was happening in the utility room and didn’t know how to answer.

Xu Zhun, who was standing aside, had a frown on his face, and was obviously also in deep thought.

"What adventures did you have?" Chen Xingrui asked curiously. He keenly noticed the strangeness between Xu Jin and the other two, as well as the deep meaning in Master Xuanqing's words.

Xu Jin tried hard to maintain a puzzled expression on his face, but his heart was in turmoil.

He didn't know how to answer Chen Xingrui's question, and he didn't know how to face the advice of Master Xuanqing.

They had never revealed this secret to outsiders. Now, was it really going to be revealed because of Xuan Qing Zhenren?

He pondered for a moment and replied, "I don't know either. Maybe the master just said it casually. We don't need to take it too seriously."

However, his eyes flickered, revealing his inner turmoil.

However, Xu Zhun was not as calm as Xu Jin. His heart was full of doubts and anxieties.

He couldn't help but ask, "Since the Master said so, could it be that there is really some danger on our trip? Or is it that our family..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Jin.

He looked at Xu Zhun, with a hint of warning in his eyes.

He knew very well that this secret must not be leaked, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Don't talk nonsense." Xu Jin shouted in a low voice, "Master is just talking casually, how can we take it seriously? We are here to study and gain knowledge, how can we give up halfway just because of a baseless remark?"

Although Xu Jin's words were firm, he was a little shaken in his heart. He looked at the back of Xuan Qing Zhenren and thought to himself: Could it be that Zhenren really knows something? Should we really give up this study tour?

Xu Qiwei also seemed to feel the tense atmosphere, he held Xu Jin's sleeve tightly, not daring to speak nonsense. However, his heart was full of curiosity and fear about the unknown.

Chen Xingrui looked at Xu Jin and the other two, his heart full of doubts.

He knew very well that Xu Jin and Xu Zhun were usually steady and prudent, but now they were acting so abnormally, there must be something fishy going on.

However, he couldn't ask too many questions and could only keep his doubts in his heart.

At this moment, Li Mufeng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up and said, "Perhaps, the real person really has some ability to predict the future."

"Although we are young and energetic, we cannot ignore the advice of our predecessors. Perhaps we should really think carefully about whether we should continue to move forward."

Li Mufeng's words were like a sobering agent, making everyone fall into deep thought.

They began to re-examine their decision and wonder whether they should continue studying abroad.

Xu Jin looked into the distance, his eyes deep, his mind full of thoughts. After a moment, he finally made up his mind.
