I exchanged sects with the real daughter, and I ascended to heaven to offer sacrifices to her

After Ye Qingning finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard with light steps, and finally did not forget to wave to Su Ye.

Su Ye's gaze followed the direction of Ye Qingning's departure until the slender figure completely disappeared from his sight. Then he slowly withdrew his gaze, and his heart suddenly felt empty.

He was trapped in the back mountain of the Zen temple before, and every day was so boring, but these few days with Ye Qingning made him feel extremely happy and joyful, and even time passed quickly.

Now that the person has suddenly passed away, he must feel empty inside.

Suddenly, I felt depressed again.

The food is ready, can't she eat with him before leaving?

She was still thinking about visiting Bald Donkey again, why didn't she say that she would come to see him in the back mountain another day? He and she are familiar with each other now, so what's so good about Bald Donkey?

Su Ye picked up the bowl and drank the fresh soup in big gulps, as if eating the food she cooked could fill the sudden emptiness in his heart with food.

After Ye Qingning left the back mountain, he went directly to the dining hall.

It was dinner time, and Ye Qingning saw Jiang Wan working hard to eat.

Jiang Wan had messaged her early this morning, and the two of them had agreed to return to the sect together in the evening.

Since they were in the dining hall, Ye Qingning also ate a bowl of rice. If you asked her why she didn't eat with Su Ye, it was because Su Ye was so hungry, how could she have the nerve to snatch food from him.

She is not picky and eats vegetarian food just the same. She even thinks it tastes good.

After having dinner with Jiang Wan, the two left the Fahua Zen Temple. Before leaving, Ye Qingning said goodbye to Kong Ming and said that he would visit him and Master Kong Wang again another day.

Originally, Jiang Wan wanted to fly back to the sect on her sword, but when she saw Ye Qingning summon the Black Feather Eagle and invite her to ride together, she really couldn't help herself.

Jiang Wan was very excited as she and Ye Qingning sat on the back of the black-feathered eagle and flew through the clouds.

I sighed from the bottom of my heart: "Junior sister, your black-feathered eagle is so majestic. Its flying speed is much faster than my sword. It seems that I should buy a mount too."

Ye Qingning knew that Jiang Wan was not short of spirit stones, but because she was a sword cultivator, and Penglai disciples rarely went out, when they did go out they basically took a flying boat, and there were actually not many opportunities for them to ride alone.

Therefore, almost all disciples would put the purchase of a mount last, since it is not used often.

Jiang Wan was so excited that she started talking: "Junior sister, have you read the spiritual jade slips these days?"

Ye Qingning shook his head. He had been learning disguise techniques from Su Ye these past few days, and hadn't really noticed what information was in the spiritual jade slip.

Jiang Wan chuckled. "The seven-day lecture is over, and we've stayed in the Zen temple for another seven days. It's already mid-January. Just last night, the sect issued an announcement that after seven days, disciples can leave the sect and go home to celebrate the New Year and visit relatives and friends. They won't have to return until after the Lantern Festival."

"I counted and found I was away for a whole month!"

"We don't normally have the chance to leave the sect. Every year, all the disciples look forward to this opportunity to go out during the Lunar New Year. In the past, we only had ten days away from the sect during the Lunar New Year, but this time, it's unprecedented, a full month!"

"Look at the news in the jade slips. It's so lively! Everyone is so excited! Many disciples have even planned to visit the mortal realm during the New Year!"

Ye Qingning thought to himself, this wasn't excitement, this was the result of him going crazy, this was because he hadn't left Penglai for a year and was now finally able to let go.

Suddenly, I thought of something very important.

——Go to Ye’s house.

Originally, she was thinking that she should go to the Ye family, but she couldn't ask for leave from the sect and delay her cultivation, so she had to put this matter aside for the time being.

Now that she knows that the annual holiday will start in seven days, and it will be a month-long holiday, it would be a perfect opportunity for her to sneak into the Ye family.

Because every Chinese New Year, all the major families are bound to be extremely lively, with various family gatherings, visits to relatives and friends, and celebrations taking place one after another.

Although Ye Xin suffered a backlash and was bedridden, the Ye family still had to celebrate the New Year. Other families would also come to visit during the New Year. This was the easiest time to sneak into the Ye Mansion without anyone noticing.

Ye Qingning had a plan in mind, and Jiang Wan beside him began to tell gossip again: "I heard that after the New Year, our sect will have a temporary elder!"

"It is said that he is a powerful being with a great reputation and unfathomable cultivation! It has caused a lot of discussion within the sect, and everyone is speculating about which powerful being will come to our sect to serve as a temporary elder."

"It's said that the sect is building a residence for this temporary elder these days! The palace on Misty Shadow Peak is almost finished. Isn't that amazingly fast? I'm really curious about who this temporary elder is."

"Junior sister, have you heard any gossip? Some people speculate that the Gu Sage has been to Penglai before. Do you think it's possible that this temporary elder is the Gu Sage?!"

"Ahhhh! The Way of Gu! The Way of Gu has always been kept secret. No sect has ever opened a school for this art. If it really is the Gu Sage who comes to Penglai to serve as a temporary elder, then our sect will become famous again!"

Ye Qingning was stunned. Taoist Wuming was going to come to Penglai to be the temporary elder?

How come she didn’t know? She hadn’t heard Feng Wuyang mention it to her!

Ye Qingning thought that after returning to the sect, he had to send a message to Feng Wuyang no matter what.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he and Jiang Wan returned to Lingyun Peak, he saw a familiar figure in front of his courtyard gate.

Feng Wuyang was seen wearing a silver robe, sitting on the stone steps at the entrance of her courtyard with his legs crossed, gently playing with seven caterpillars of different colors in his hands.

Seeing Ye Qingning, Feng Wuyang immediately put away the caterpillar in his hand, stood up happily and walked towards Ye Qingning.

"Junior Sister, you're finally back! I've been waiting for you at the gate of your courtyard for two days. I finally saw you back!"

Ye Qingning smiled helplessly: "Can't you send me a message?"

Feng Wuyang shook his head: "Isn't this just a surprise for you? How about it, are you happy to see me, your senior brother, suddenly?"

Ye Qingning was determined not to spoil the fun: "I'm so happy. I have something to ask you. Come in and tell me."

After saying that, Ye Qingning invited Jiang Wan to go into the yard together. Jiang Wan shook her head shrewdly and ran back to the yard next door, but there was a gossipy gleam in her eyes.

I screamed in my heart: I guessed it right! I guessed it right!

She had seen that man during the Immortal Sect Competition. At that time, she saw him walking with Shen Xuanli. Out of curiosity, she asked about him and found out that he was the disciple of the Gu Saint.

Just now, she heard him call Junior Sister Ye "Little Junior Sister" with her own ears. Doesn't this prove that the temporary elder is the Gu Saint?

It turns out that the Gu Saint came to Penglai as a temporary elder in order to accept Junior Sister Ye as his disciple. Junior Sister Ye is so amazing *\(^o^)/*!

Inside the house, Ye Qingning poured a cup of tea for Feng Wuyang.

The two were already quite familiar with each other, so they got straight to the point and asked, "It's rumored in the sect that a powerful figure will be coming to Penglai to serve as a temporary elder after the New Year. Is this person the Taoist Wuming?"

Feng Wuyang took the teacup, took a sip, his eyes full of smiles: "Junior Sister is indeed well-informed. Yes, it is Master who is going to Penglai to serve as the temporary elder."

"Master doesn't covet the position of elder. It's because you, Junior Sister, are already a core disciple. Once you pass the Tianjiao assessment after the new year, according to Penglai's disciple promotion system, you will be able to enter the Master's Hall and become his disciple."

"When Master found out, he couldn't sit still. He discussed with Pei Yin about coming to Penglai to serve as a temporary elder. In fact, he wanted to take Junior Sister as his disciple, fearing that someone else would snatch her away."

"Of course, I made this decision because I learned that Junior Sister was unwilling to leave Penglai, so I could teach her cultivation more conveniently."

"Little Junior Sister, tell me quickly, are you willing to become Master's disciple?"

"I'm afraid that Master will come here in high spirits, but in the end you won't accept him as your master. He won't be able to bear the blow. If you don't want to accept him as your master, please tell me secretly. I can hint at it and make him mentally prepared, so that he won't take it out on me after the time and space are full of joy."

"You don't know, Master looks young, but he hits people hard. One kick from him almost broke my butt. Even the Gu worms he raised could hardly recognize me."
